He is now Cured, and He Thanks God
and P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Rem-
edy, For It.
Mr. George Briggs, of Moore. Okla,
suffered almost indescribable torment
for three long years. Neuralgia held
him captive. The right side of his face
was so badly affected that the slightest
touch would cause the unfortunate
man intense agony. For several weeks
he could open his mouth just‘wide
enough to be fed with liquid nourish-
ment, and in this manner life was sus-
tained. Read the following extract
from his letter: “Truth is stranger
than Fiction.” Q
NEURALGIA,'CATARRH AND RHEUMA-
TISM COMPLETELY CURED.
George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma,
writes that P. P. P., Lippman’s Great
Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial
neuralgia and rheumatism, after three
years of intense suffering. The pain
lay in his cheek bone and temple, down
the right side of his face, along his
upper lip, and from the slightest touch
he suffered agonies for weeks at a time.
Could only open his mo nth wide enough
to admit a. teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him in torture. He
had a consultation of the best physi~
cians in Texas, but all to no purpose.
Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he
tried P. P. P. He says he is well and
will swear that there are no cases of
neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism,
no matter how chronic or how old the
cases are, that P. P. P. will not make
a total cure of. ‘
Mr. Briggs winds up his testimony
by saying he thanks God and our med—
icine, P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Rem-
edy, for the great cure.
Kidney troubles, if neglected, bring
about serious and painful and very
often fatal results. P. P. P. removes
the irregularities, and cures the dis-
eased parts.
Dyspepsia and indigestion, skin and
blood diseases, can be speedily removed
by P. P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy.
Ladies, take P. P. P. and rid your
face of pimples, blotches, freckles,
yellow or muddy skin, wrinkles and
vulgar redness.

The Rain-es Excise law of New York
State will doubtless in time form the
ground work for excise laws of very
fhan’y‘of the'other states in the Union.
The law has the merit of attacking
unrestricted license boldly. It restricts
.by putting a partially prohibitive tax
upon the liquor business. It increases
revenues to the government and re-
duces the number of grog shops at tin.
Same time. In this, I think, all fair-
minded men are interested. It is es-
timated that the receipts this year
under the amended law will be over
$13,000 000. Last year the revenue
from this source amounted to about
$11,000,000. Nearly all of the liquor-
tax certificates now in force were is-
sued for a period of only ten months.
The renewals of these certificates will
be for a year, which will mean an in-
creased revenue from this source.
Then will come the additional receipts
under which all clubs in which
liquor is distributed must pay
the some tax as hotels
and saloons. They are not subject to
visitation by excise inspectors, except
on the direction of the Excise Commis-
sioner. They may distribute liquor to
their members at any time, provided
they were incorporated prior to March
23, 1890, the date when the original
Liquor-Tax Law was signed. Clubs
organized since that time will not be
permitted to distribute liquor on Sun-
days, election days, or between the
hours of 1 and 5 o'clock in the morn-
ing.
RAINES.

Hotels, within the meaning of the
law, are such as have at least ten bed-
rooms for guests above the basement
floor. These must be separated by
partitions not less than three inches
thick, which must extend from floor
to ceiling. Independent access to ev-
ery room must be provided from a
hallway. Every room must have at
least eight square feet of floor space
and 600 cubic feet of air space. A
window must be provided for every
room. The hotel dining room must
contain at least 300 spuare feet of
floor surface, and have accommoda.
tions for at least twenty diners. The
bar may not be in the dining room.
Guests of hotels are defined to be per-
sons who hire rooms at regular rates
not merely to be served with drinks,
or such as resort to the hotel for meals
at the regular hours when meals are
served.
The free lunch has been revived.
Many saloon men say this was done
in the interest of the New York State
cheese manufacturers, and that they
will not buy State cheese for their
lunch counters. .
Thousands of hotels, like monuments
erected along a thirsty road, proclaim
Raines and his law, while clubs by
hundreds dispense liquid hospitality
under the name of Raines.
Those who bestow a thought on how
and when and where they may pur-
chase a drink know of Raines, and the
still larger class—all the taxpayers
whose tax rate is or may be lowered
rived from the liquor tax law—have
more than passing interest in Raines.
[John Raines is a stalwart in his po-
litical creed, in the methods by which
he accomplishes his ends, and in phy-
sique. Standing in his place in the
upper house at Albany, “the Senator
from the Forty-Second,” which is Mr.
Raines’s district, towers a head over
any of his associates. His hair and
drooping mustache are tawny gray.
His voice' when he is in earnest is a
roar. Whether it be in debate, in the
pursuit of office, or on a hunt for
spoils, he goes with the dash of a cav-
alryman under a slouclred hat. His
eyes are cold blue. his features satur-
ine, his aspect stern when he is in
pursuit. When he sits down with a
few companions having nothing to do
but pass away the time, 'he has a
hearty laugh, enjoys and tells a good
story, and is rated a good fellow.
But apparently he has no intimate
companions among his fellow-Sen-
ators. He goes and comes alone, on
his daily visits to the Capitol. He
does not frequent the headquarters of
the politicians, and the social and con-
vivial doings of the lawmakers appar-
ently have little interest for him. He
dwells apart from the groups of Sen‘
ators whose winter life in Albany has
many of the elements of. a house par-
ty. . .
Mr. Raines evidently enjoys no part
of his legislative work better than at-
tacking Democrats—any and all Dem-
ocrats—and extolling Republicans—any
and all Republicans—before the open
Senate. He is ready on any occasion
to accept any challenge involving
l’such recreation. CYRUS THROP

THEATRICAL GOSSIP.
It is frequently argued in proof of
Eleitnora Duse’s originality and ”hat.
uralness that her methods have never
been imitated by mimics. Her acting
is said to be so free from exaggeration
that it offers no peculiarities striking
enough for imitators to seize on. This
.may be true enough, and there are no
persons in mind who have ever made
her performance the subject of inten-
tional imitation as a mere reproduc-
tion of Duse’s style of acting. But if
she has not been imitated as Sarah
Bernhardt has, Duse has certainly in-
fluenced her contemporaries on the
stage, and there is scarcely a conspic‘
uous actress among the younger wo-
men on the stage to-d-ay who has not
begun to follow Duse in the phases of
her acting that it is possible to repro-
duce. The influence of her acting is
seen most in the increase of what is
known in the phraseology of the the-
atre as “business.” Our younger act-
resses—as many of them at least as
have seen Duse and are acting in
plays in which it is possible—have be~
gun to exaggerate their business with
an enthusiasm so unbounded that
there is good reason to believe it can-
not last. Olga Nethersole, whose
abundant, unrestrained genius is the
last in the world adapted to such a
method as Duse employs, showed dur-
ing her recent visits here that she is.
badly affected with the microbe. She
was seen in “The Wife of Scarli" fill-
ing her performance of- the heroine in
that play with a hopeless accumula-
tion of insignificant detail. She read
books, pressed her hand over her
brow, filled a stove with wood until
there was scarcely a second in the
play that was not occupied with some
such detail, so obviously thought out
and so universally accentuated that
the real significance and drift of the
drama was rather interrupted than ad-
vanced by these digressions. Mrs.
Fiske is an actress better able to use
the Duse formula. for she has stead-
ily grown more and more intellectual
in her acting, and thus has, year by
year, driven out, more and more, the
sympathetic element of her art. The.
composition of her characters is al-
ways a. perfectly apparent intellectual
achievement, and the delicate pathos
and sensitiveness that were qualities
of her acting several years ago have
pretty nearly. disappeared, as the
purely mental side of her work has
grown to predominate. So the Duse
methods, with their quietness and
naturalness, were more easily within
her power than they were in Olga
Nethersole’s. The effect of the Italian
actress’s art on talents so widely dif-
ferent as Mrs. Fiske’s and Olga Neth-
ersole’s has been about the same in
both cases. Miss Nethersole has
grown minute and elaborate to the
loss of spontaneity and her peculiar
fervor and passion. Mrs. Fiske has
grown methodical and exact to the
loss of sympathy, and in a measure
the naturalness for which she aims.
Duse is a rare genius, who developed
her own art. It is one- not to be ap-
plied to other natures, and it is so
purely subjective that it cannot be re-
produced bv other women. Not one
has ever attempted it here without a
loss to her own individuality. Agnes
Sorma has succeeded among foreign-
ers in showing us a technique nearly
as fine as that which our actresses
have set to imitating. But the depth
of the genius that makes Duse what
she is Frau Sorma lacks. Nobody ever
admired Duse merely for her art. It
was her emotional power over audi-
ences not understanding a word she
said that made her so widely popular.
It was not merely a question of un-
ending and uninterrupted “business"
that made her great. On the contrary.
it was the heart in her acting that
made its appeal so universal. But the
women who imitate Duse have seem-
ingly lost sight of that and attempted
to acquire only the intellectual side of
what she did.

WASHINGTON NOTES. ’
When Seth L. Milliken died the
House lost one of its most p-Opu-lar
members. He was the oldest and most
amiable member of the great Maine”
quartet; indeed, he was one of the
most amiable of men. . He gave hard
knocks without malice, and received
them without fiinching. He was one
of the picturesque figures of the
House—a fine head of hair, white as
the driven snow; 3. rotund figure; a
rubicund face, clean shavcn as a
priest; a merry. twinkle in his eye, a
courtesy that never failed and which
no contest cOuld ruffle. He had been
in Congress a long time; indeed, it is
Maine’s habit to keep her representa—
tives here until they die or are pro-
moted, consequently they grow into in-
fluential members, rise to the head of
great committees, and are potent in
the intricate business of lawmaking.
“'hen the House met in extraordin-
ary session, March 15, of the “rettn'n-
ing pilgrims,” as those who were de-
feated in ’94 and elected in ’96 were
called, none received a more cordial
welcome than did Judge lVilliam- S.
Holman, of Indiana, who rejoiced in
the pseudonym of the “watchdog of
the treasury.” He felt, as did others,
that he had justly earned that honor-
able title by thirty years of warfare
on the floor of the House against all
extravagance and every species of job-
bery; so. old and young, Democrats,
Republicans, Populists and Silverites,
gave the Judge the “glad hand.” He.
had just achieved the unprecedented
llOllOl‘ of a sixteenth election to the
House of Representatives, had there-
by exploded a superstition that no man
would ever serve more than thirty
years in the House, and his friends be-
lieve that thereby he fixed his name
permanently. in the history of the
country. He was so hale and hearty
that it seemed as reasonable to expect
him to serve a full term as any other
man in the House. Now that he is
gone, full of years and honors, to 'join
Hendrix, McDonald, Gray, Voorhees
and other illustrious Hoosier friends
on the other shore, everybody rejoices.
that it was permitted him to die with
the harness on his back.
The death of these two venerable
men has perhaps revealed Mr. Reed to
the world in a new light. When he
announced that the House should ad—
journ in memory of his colleague he
was visibly affected, his lip trembled
2131 he could scarcely control his voice
sufficiently to utter the simple for-
mula; and so it was one day later
when he performed the same duty as
to Judge Holman. So it appears that
the Speaker, who is a born fighte‘r',
merciless in retort; ever ready for a
tilt, has a heart tender in its affeo
tions.
The last Representative-elect to the
Fifty-Fifth Congress to take his seat
in the House was James Hamilton
Lewis, the new Democratic member
from the State of ‘Washington. As he
came down the center aisle to take the
oath of office, he was a vision of love-
liness, so to speak, for he was spot-
lessly and exquisitely arrayed. From
pointed patent leather shoes to care-
fully parted auburn hair, he was a
thing of beauty, and, let us hope, a
joy forever. His light trousers were
carefully creased until they would cut
paper, his, Prince Albert coat was
smoothly pressed, there was a white
martingale about his neck, and under-
neath his waistcoat his shirt front was
hidden beneath a puff tie of rich and
shiny blue silk. His dainty hands
were incased in a pair of bright yel-
low gloves, and his face was covered
with whiskers of the same color.
But Mr. Lewis is something more
than a mere dandy. He is a success-
ful politician. He was admitted to the
bar fifteen years ago, at the age of 19,
and removed to “’ashington in 1885.
Since then he has been a State Sen-
ator, and he is now a Representative
in Congress. Moreover he declined a.
nomination for Congress in 1890; was
nominated for Governor in 1892, and
declined the nomination because he
did not like the platform; was one of
the Democratic nominees for the
United States Senatein 1894; and in
the Chicago convention of 1896 he re.
ceived seventeen votes as a candidate
for the Vice Presidential nomination.

WHY‘NAPOLEON LOST WATERLOO.
Owing to an Insidious Disease He Slept
During the Battle. < _
In a recent English book on Water-
loo there is a curious reason given for
Napoleon’s defeat, which seems to
have escaped otherhistorians.
Others, bringing forward many par-
ticular examples. to prove this conten<
tion, urge that throughout the cam«
paign Napoleon was incapaCitated by
disease and a semi-comatose condi-
tion at the moment when energy was
of all things the most needful.
The truth seems to be that Napo-
leon was sufiering under the influence
of a strange ”and mysterious malady,
the nature of which has not yet been
accurately defined.
What is certain in Napoleon’s case
is that his malady had been growing
upon him with increasing force since
1806, that its attacks were modified by
a sudden lethargy, amounting to com-
plete pro-stration, and that its effects .
were that, at some critical moment of
a battle, his wonderful pow-er of quick
and correct decision seemed to de-
sert him—so much so that, for the
time being, he almost abandoned the
reins to chance.
At 'W-agram and
slept, while the noise of battle was
rolling around him. At Waterloo,
seated on a wooden chair, his head
drooping upon his arms, resting on a
table stretched out to accommodate
his maps and papers, he slumbered
heavily, oblivious for the moment,
even at this crisis of his fortunes, of
the events which were deciding his
destiny—Golden Days.

A Cousin by Adopt‘on. ‘
A correspondent of the Bookman
suggests an incident about Irving that
is novel and interesting: That Irving
was a friend of the Knickerbockers of
Schaghticoke is well known, but not,
I think, the reason why he adopted
himself into the family. While ‘Har‘
mon Knickerbocker, who was pre-
sumably upon intimate terms with
Irving, was a member of congress, he
had occasion to present Irving to
President Madison, and in so doing
facetiously introduced him as his
“cousin-german, Diedrich Knicker-
bocker, from old Schaghticoke.” Irving
was rather taken aback, but the so-
briquet so took his fancy that he made
use of it as a pen name when he
wrote his famous history of New
York, in which he refers several times
to his “cousin the congressman.”

flare is another concerning Alfred
Hunt: He was at the same time both
.i very slow and a fastidiously punc-
tlllous sketcher from nature—a com-
bination which is said to have has-
tened his end. For he had a block for
every hour of the day and every con-
dition of weather, and, overladen with
these, he would often trudge a lengthy
distance to his work. He would then
start, say, on an incomplete morning
effect in sunshine, to be cast aside for
a similar subject in shadow if the
scene clouded over. or for a noon-day
one directly that the hour was
reached. It is said that he conse-
quently sometimes carried as many as
a dozen varieties of the same view.
