surroundings in keeping with the hap-
piness of all present.

Card tables were conviently arranged
.about the hall for those who preferred
a game of whist to galop, schottische'or
waltz. and the scene was as resplendent
as a brand new rainbow and as lively
.as one could wish for.

present. The function was a success as

servedly popular club. It is intended

said it Worked like a charm. This remedy
is intended especially for acute throat and
lung diseases such as colds, croup and

‘ WhOOping- cough, and it is famous for its

cures. There is no danger in giving it to
children for it contains nothing injurious.

BOUGHT A FAKE STOCK.
The Hams Were Stuffed With Sawdust and
the Sausages With Wind.

The San Francisco Examiner says
that buying' bolognas stufied with
wind instead of sausage meat is not a.
profitable investment, as John Daly
of 434 Jessie street, that city, can tes—
tify. A few days ago Mr. Daly
bought a half interest in a delicates-
sen store at 304 Fourth street from
Mrs. Martha. Evarett, paying $200 for
his share of the stock and good will.
He saw her advertisement in a daily
paper, and thought the store would
be desirable for a gentleman who
wanted to embark in business.

Before purchasing John went down
and looked at the place, which fairly
reeked with good things. Along the
walls hung rows of nice fat sausages
and hams and smoked fish, while the
shelves held dozens of cans of corned
beef. There were kegs of ostensible
tripe and pigs’ feet, dried beef,
cheese and tins of pickled goods. Mrs.
Everett showed her partner a. large
consignment of eggs in cases and bar-
rels of butter, and pointed with pride
to a robust porcelain pig rooting in a
plate of uncooked beans in the win-
dow, after the manner of pigs in del-
icatessen stores. Thinking that the
place contained at least $800 worth
of stock, Mr. Daly bought it and took
charge of the store. His partner
wanted to go to the country for a few
days, and was perfectly willing to
trust him.

The first morning John opened up
he alleges that he made a discovery.
He shifted the egg cases, and found
that only the top layers bore fruit.
The rest of the pasteboard pigeon
holes were hollow. mockeries. Saw
dust took the place of flesh and bone
in the ham covers, and 'the rolls of
butter were empty cans rolled in
damp cheese cloth. The 400 bottles
wrapped in pink tissue paper and sup
posed to contain wine and beer proved
to be nothing but unfiltered Spring
Valley water.

But the cruelest sham of all was
the sausage. The sleek brown skins
were filled with wind, and each one
was ballasted with a bullet to pre-
vent the sausage from floating up
against the ceiling like a toy balloon.
It was the same way with everything
else. The cans were all empty, and
the pickled tripe department was a
delusion and a snare. Mr. Daly soon
retired from business, and will sell
the counter and shelves at a discount.

Mrs. Everett, alias Gotching, was
arrested last night on Folsom street
by Detective Dillon, and locked up at
the city prison on a charge of obtain-
ing money under false pretences. She
will not make any statement.

lnon‘ensive Telegraph Poles Sufl‘er.
“Yes,” said Joseph Donner, super-
intendent of telegraph for the South-
ern Pacific railroad to a reporter of
the New Orleans Times-Democrat,

“telegraph poles along the line have.

a hard time. Particularly is this so
out \Vest, where the poles are costly
and the stations are few and far be-
tween. NOW, out in the Arizona des-i
ert the poles are played the deuce with
generally. There is a sort of wood-
pecker that picks the posts absolutely
to pieces, thinking there may be in-
sects inside of the wood. They hear
the humming, and haven’t sense
enough to know what causes it. Then
near the hills the black bears imagine

that each pole contains a swarm of 1

bees, and they climb to the top and
chew the glass insulators to pieces;
but the sand storms are the things
that create the most havoc. When the
winds blo'w strongly the sand is drift-
ed at a rapid rate, and the grains cut
the wood at a fearful rate. It was a
common thing to have an oak pole
worn to shavings in a day’s time,
while I have seen poles ground to the
surface of the earth during a. single
storm. Things got so‘ bad out there
that the company decided to substi-
tute steel poles for the oak and cedar,
but that didn’t remedy the evil at all.
The sand just were away the metal
on each side of the pole until the cen-
tre was as sharp as a razor, and all
the Indians used to shave themselves
on the edge. We finally managed to
fix things. Just painted the poles
with soft pitch. The pitch caught the
sand, and now every pole is about
two feet thick and as solid as a roc-k."'

(All: last- Winter Mr! Geo.“ («LAT Mills” 61‘
Lebanonfi Conn.,"‘ was badly afflicted with
rheumatism. a At times it was so severe that
he could not stand up straight, but was
drawn over on one side. - “I tried different
remedies without receiving relief,” he says,
“until about six months ago I bought a bot-
tle of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. After using
it for three days my rheumatism was gone
and has not returned since.”k_ For sale by E.
