From the cards he changed to silk hats and silver dollars, and it was then that his remarkable skill as, a palmist was shown. Try as they would, no one was able to detect him in his manipulations. and he received round after round 01 applause. He did other tricks, all de— signed to show his skill at sleight-OI- hand work, and during them all liODI. up a constant flow of intermingled English and French.‘ Herrmann’s work as a shadOWgraphist’ revealed the flexibility of his hands, and when he made his final bow and tried to express his thanks his voice was drowned in a. burst of cheers.” Hoyt’s Theatre to night.

He Released the Parrots and Other Crea- tures, and There Was a Time. ‘ A sad—faced monkey with a fringe of agricultural chin whiskers got out of his cage in a bird store on Bromfield street yesterday afternoon, and, owing to the absence of every one from the store, he was not put back in it again until about 12 o’clock at night. When he did go it was at the instance of two policemen armed with long poles, who had broken through the door in or- der to stop the devastation which he was causing in the interior, and he re- turned to imprisonment with the proud consciousness that he had done every- thing which a monkey could do to make it interesting for the other occu— pants of the store. His first act on escaping from his cage appears, to have been to let out .the parrots. There are many brilliant hued African- parrots in the store, and the color schemeecreated by their re- lease seemed to please the monkey im- mensely, for he attempted a closer ac- quaintance with them. The parrots, however, were coy, and sought the cages at the top of the store, so that the monkey was only able to pull out the tail of one of them. About this eye chancing to light on the goldfish which were swimming about in glass globes in the centre of the store he thought that they would do for a'meal. He first tried to snatch them out, but this process was too slow, and he pushed one of the globes over, smash. ing it, scattering the fish about on the floor. It was this performance which at- tracted the attention of two pelice- men. It is on record that they did ac- tually chase the monkey an hour before they succeeded in getting him back into his cage. He showed marked agility in avoiding them, bounding from the door to the door to the cages at the side of the room, and from one side to the other, ‘ until their eyes stuck out of their heads in the attempt to follow his movements. ‘ Finally the monkey was cornered and their driven along the wall and into his cage. The store looked like moving day, but the cause of it all was whol- ly uninjured, and in as good condition as even—Boston Transcript. Fore warned, Forearmed.

A truly wonderful instance of the im- mediate and certain effects of California Catarrh Cure on the worst chronic cases when all other medicines and physi- cians of greater or less reputation have failed, and even a sojourn abroad re- sulted in no permanent relief, is that of Miss Cunn of 650 Dexter street, Paw-. tucket, R. I., who has suffered intense- ly for eight years with one of the worst cases of chronic nasal and pharyngeal catarrh. Miss Cunn says: “I have been a sufl‘erer for eight years and my case was the worst I ever knew about. Nearly all the symptoms that are given as that of catarrh I had The passages of my head and throat were completely stufl'ed up all the time. and my n0l-e Was blocked so that it was impossible for me to sleep with my mouth closed. My throat botllt red me awfully. It Was dry in the morning, and I had to hawk and cough almm-t all ti e time to clear it of phlegm that kept filling it. “I have used almost two bottles of Californla Catarrh Cure and the effect. has beenwonderful. One by one the symptoms have gradually disappeared. My sense of taste has improved,breath- mg has become easier, the clearing of my head has made me feel immensely better in every way and altogether I have been so relieved, that I am almost completely cured.
