P., Lippman’ 3 Great Remedy, Saves
a Man From Becoming a Cripple.
r. Asa Ammons, a well- known
zen of Jacksonville, Flmida, was
cted by a terrible ulcer. Medical
seemed unavailing in stopping the
ges of the terrible disease. The
was swollen and intensely painful,
the ulcer had eaten its way down
0 the very bone. All medicines and
.reatments having failed to effect a
cure, the doctors said the leg must
come 05. Just when it seemed that
Mr. Ammons would become a disabled
and a crippled man,‘ he tried P. P. P.,
Lippman’s Great Remedy, and the re-
sult was wonderful.
- P. P. P. SAVES HlS LEG.
“ Jacksonville, Fla” July 1,1895.—
Two years ago I had the worst ulcer
on my leg I ever saw. It had eaten
down to the bone, and my whole leg
below my knee, and my foot was
swollen and inflflamed The bone was
swollen and painful, and discharged a
most offensive matter, My physicians
said I had necrosis of the bone, and
my leg would have to come off. At
this stage I commenced to take P. P. P.
and to bathe my leg with hot castile
soap suds. It began to improve at
once and healed rapidly, and is to-day
a sound and useful leg.
“I think P. P. P., Lippman’s Great
Remedy, is all a man could ask for as
:a blood. purifier, as I have known it to
cure so meterrible cases of blood poi-
soning in a remarkably short time.

Importance of the Saddle.
At a meeting of women cyclers in
Brooklyn Mrs. Ella Morse Huddcrs
made an informal talk on bicycles and
Saddles, incidentally dwelling upon
tiié‘ many ills women suffer from their
faulty walking and riding. Reverting
to the cycling question she said:
“Wheeling is the one foim of taking
exercise adapted to all ages and all
conditions of women. Other kinds of
gymnastics may develop certain mus-
cles, but do not result in general good.
What we want is oxygen, and plenty
of it. Riding a wheel in the country
will give it to us.
“The one trouble about wheeling.
however, is-that few women or even
men know how to properly utilize a
wheel. They pay no attention to its
pioper adjustment, and iide it in a
caieless manner. Particulaily is this
true of the saddle. That is the most
important part of. the bicycle, and a
sixteenth of an inch one way or an-
other in the adjustment of a saddle
makes a big difference.”
Mrs. Hudders further stated that
she had about thirty or forty saddles
and had tried them all, but found only
one or two were fit to be used. She
also advised that women buying
wheels should insist on being allowed
.to try different saddles for at least two
Weeks to each saddle.
When she had concluded, Dr. Mc-
Cune inquired which saddle she would
recommend, but Mis. Hudders refused
to recommend any, stating. that she had
business relations with so many dif<
ferent firms, all of Whom sent her
saddles,- that she did not care to ad-
vertise any particular one. 3
Some one in the audience then asked-
how far a woman should lean forward
on a bicycle, which got Mrs. Hudders
started on a long dissertation- about
leaning at certain angles, curvatures
of the spine, teaching childien how to
walk, and proper length of skirts. She
made the statement that “not 500
people in New York, or Brooklyn,
either, mind you, know how to walk,”
and that all women’s spines were
weak. This latter statement caused a
red-faced, healthy-looking woman to
enter a vehement protest.
Proverbs of the Searcher.
A soft answer turned away wrath,
but a soft tire filleth a. man with evil
thoughts.
As the handle bar is bent, so shall
the spinal column of the rider be in-
clined. .
It shall be said of all bicycles that
their way is the way of the crank.
The man who looketh behind him in
a crowded path would better be a pil-
lar of salt.
It is-a wise cyclometer that shows
its master an extraordinary day’s run.
As the spoke is bent so shall the path
of the bicycle deviate from the
straight and narrow way.
A drop of oil in time may save many
a gallon of perspiration.
The bicycle hath wisdom which sub-
mitteth to the charge that it is at
fault, and not its master, for running
no two days alike during the week.
It cannot be said of a bicycle rider
that he begins in the way he should
g 0.
A bicycle can do almost anything
save climb a tree.
The rider who pursueth his way
with his head bowed runncth to his
own destruction.
The oil cup that goes too long un-
covered will become possessed of as
much grit as the rider of the bicycle

the Governor in his convalescence. One
day the Governor was indisposed and
Uncle Bob heard of it and went to the
mansion to spend the night with his
master and to cheer his lonely hours.
The Governor was restless. Uncle Bob
began to recount the occurrences of
his past life so as to help while away
the hours, and for the first time re-
lated his war experience. He was
sent to the front with Gov. Atkinson‘s
eldest brother, John B. Atkinson, who
was a member of the Seventh Georgia
Regiment, and he recounted the story
of his master’s death and his owr: fiel-
ity, apparently unconscious of his own
heroism in the alfair.

SEEMS A WEARRESS OF GENERALS
It Always Excites the Envy o
Younger Men.
Kissing pretty girls has been a fa
vorlte occupation of nearly all grew
men of mature age, military men be
1113' particularly given to it. Gen
Grant was perhaps the notable excep-
tion. This recalls an incident which
came under the observation of the wri-
ter at Galen-a, 111., shortly after the
close of the war. Gen. Grant 11nd re-

A great crowd was assembled at the
railway station to welcome him. As
the Geneial aliglited fiom the train he
was greeted by a procession of a dozen
or more young ladies. As the fiisi
blooming miss grasped the hand of the
hero she held up her ruby lips—the lips
of brave and tender girls like this are
. always ruby—with the firm but inex-
pressibly sweet compression which
evciy expeiienced osculator recognizes
ate glance as meaning business. The
(west-121.1 Seemed surprised, flushed

ing beauties, drew a long br,eath and
then, with the resolute look of a man
determined to fight it out on that line
if it tool: all Summer, he delibeiately
and with praiseworthy impartiality
kissed every girl in the procession.
The General was a modest man,- but
he was never known to flinch in the
face of his duty to his countrymenflor
countrywomen.
Gen. R. E. Lee, notwithstanding the
staid decorum of his ordinary demean-
or, was ever ready, it is stated, to face
an emergency of this kind. At Lexing-
ton, Va., in the closing years of his life,
there were many pretty girls and many
osculatory encounters, the girls being
quite willing to “have it to say” that
they had been so distinguished by the
great commander. The college boys
heard of it with mingled feelings of
envy and emulation. To this day, it is
said, the visitor at Lexington will be
stopped at this or that turn of the road
by his guide, with the remark: “Here,
in 1860, I saw Gen. Lee kiss Miss So-
and-So. They met; they, chatted. At
the parting the damsel would say,
‘Why, General, aren’t you going to kiss
me?’ and thereupon the General would
respond with evident animation.” A
great number of spots at the Southern
Mecca are decorated with similar le-
gends—so many, in fact, that the tour-
ist is inspired with regrets that he, too,
was not a great General and strate-
gist.
Gen. Sherman’s exploits in this at-
tractive field are more widely known.
Indeed, they were extended over a
wider area and were performed with,
perhaps, a trifle less discrimination. At
every Grand Army reunion therz would
be found a number of blooming
misses who aspired to kiss the Gen-,
eral. Being 'a gallant man—every sol-
dier must be gallant—Gen. Sherman re-
sponded to the seductive challenges
with exemplary alacrity, to the sorrow
of the young oflicers, who thought such
sweetness wasted on an old man, and
a married man at that. It does seem
hard. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, who
opposed Gen. Sherman on so many
fields, was in this line of operations
also a rival worthy of his steel.
It was not the good fortune of Gen.
Johnston to attend Grand Army reun-
ions to any considerable extent, but in
his limited sphere Gen. Johnston had
in his last years a great many Confed-
erate admirers of the charming sex,
who, with his ready sanction, testified
their cordiality in the characteristic
and always pleasant feminine manner.
He was a handsome man, even in ex-
treme old age, so that there was no
drawback to chill the fluttering heart
of the impulsive feminine patriot.
It must not be assumed that the Gen-
'erals that have been named are the
only ones who have had the courage to
meet their feminine admirers of the
third generation half way. Their name
is legion, so far, at least, as apprecia-
tion goes. It is noticeable, however,
that the girls draw the osculatory line
at Major Generals. They are severe in
their requirements, exacting rank,
fame, and an age few ordinary mortals
can attain without falsifying the fam-
ily records.
The kissing of great Generals is to
be distinguished from that of great
politicians. President Buchanan, it is
true, was a truly fortunate man in this
regard, but he was a President and a
bachelor. .He was, in fact, wholly out-
side of the category of ordinary politi-
cians. whose kissing is commonly re-
stricted to children and babies. Such
osculation is useful in a campaign, but
it is said not to be exhilarating.
A Friendly Critic.
Sir John Millais was once attending
a celebrated case at Bow street, and
was accommodated with a seat in the
press box. In front of him sat a
youthful new addition to the staff of a
leading London illustrated paper.
“Don’t you think that would be an
improvement?” suggested the great-ar-
tistkmild-ly, pointing out some tech-
nichal defect in the sketch the young-
ster was engaged on. The young fel-
low was highly indignant at first, but
eventually adopted the alteration,
which so improved the sketch that
he turned round and inquired some—
what patronizingly, “Who may you
be, sir, who presume to correct my
work?" For answer he received a
card, on which was anscrib-ed, “John
Mill'ais, R. A.,” accompanied by the
kindly remark, “We are never to old
to learn. Perhaps you may be able to
give me a timely wrinkle one of these
fine days.”

SHE REPT HIM A BACHELOR.
Yet Gave Him the Start in Llfe'That lilade
Him 'a Success.
A Michigan lawyer. whose success
has been an established fact for years
tells one incident in his life, from which
he dates his prosperity:
“I. had gone from a farm up in 1\ \ew
Hampshire to Boston. In welldly mat-
ters I was deplorably ignorant, but in
book lore I must have been something
of a phenomenon, for so much that I
have read was literature such as oc-
cupied the thoughts of the scholar a
Century or so ago. I had said faiew ell
to the folks at home, and positively as-
sured them that when I came back I
would be a lawyer.
“I had my whole campaign mapped
out, and you can infer I was a novice

the central figure in some sort of social
function, and I was practically par-
alyzed when ushered into his august
presence. The fine ladies about him
put the finishing touches on my timid-
ity. As I look back I can recall that I
would speak at first, then think, and
finally suffer indescribable horrors. I
was in a. state of irresponsible extinc-
tion. But it was one of those same
fine ladies that came to my rescue.
With a tact that would have won her
fame as a cross-e: <aminer, she drew
me out, was delighted with the quaint
knowledge that I possessed, interested
the Mayor in spite of himself, and he

to induce that fine young lady to come
with me, but she was just as tactful
in refusing my proposal as she had

Glass to' Keep Out Heat.
Glass of a peculiar quality—that is.
non-conductive for heat rays—has been —

in contrast to plate glass, which 111:-

This glass is designed to insui'e win-

seem to render Szigmondy’s glass an
impossibility, in some respects at

Thus,- s‘tanding by a window on
which the sun shines, the w g‘mth of
the sun is felt,- but, on touc ing the
Window, it is found to be cold; then,
