General Grcely, Chief of the Signal Service, renders the signal service to bis country of sitting tin* example of not consuming cigars. Is he one of the "smoke less men-of-war" the Frenchmen are providing themselves with? General Grosveuer charges the Democrats with ingratitude for re fusing forty years after the war, to have anything to do with a Con fedrate soldier when making their nomination for President, The ex-soldiers referred to, however, do not think that the Republican orator's suggestion is made wholly in their interest. "Let Irishmen stay in the Emerald Isle," Says Cardinal Gib bons, says he; And Keaue, the Archbishop, concurs with a smile, "They ought to do that, I agree," "Your Rivrence" says Paddy, "You tell us to stay upon the ovvld sod, but, betlad, O, musha! Oi've just been a wonderin to-day where you two would be if we had?" Congress has visited Pocahon tas' people down at Jamestown and is now expected to shell out $3,000,000 as a starter for the ter centenary celebration. Will Capt.

The great railroad tunnel under the Hudson River from Jersey Citv to New York is practically finish ed. Jersey has been in much effervescence and ebullition ever since March 0 when the two work ing parties met under the middle of the river and exchanged saluta tions amid a scene of hilarity. In view of this and the other tunnel to bo finished this year and the projected Hudson River bridge, a huge army of Yorkers are prepar ing to emigrate to Jersey. Sinnamahonlng Items.

How AeroliH'N Were Once Regarded. The plienoiiieiiu of shooting stars and other luminous appearances In the sky long acted as stimulants to the super stitious fears of the multitude. A red appearand was a fiery sword dipped in blood, a sinuous wavy line a fiery ser pent, a number of such lines a fiery dragon, a cluster of diverging lines a rod for the scourging of nations. As shooting stars were common in August, about the time of the festival of St. Lawrence, they were said to be "the tears" of that martyr. Notes and Queries. A Hindoo Belief About Onli, The Hindoos declare that the flesh and blood of au owl will ninke a per son insane who eats or drinks it. On this account men who are devoured by jealousy of a rival or hatred of an enemy come furtively to the market and purchase an owl. In silence they carry it home and secretly prepare a decoction, which an accomplice will put into the food of the object of their malignant designs. Alltlno nirilx niul Ilranta Sucred.

When insurance companies grant in surance on life, they are particular to have the person examined by a doctor to ascertain if he is in sound health. They are most particular about the analysis of the urine for the diseases of the kidneys are the most fatal and so many people have diseased kidneys without knowing it.

Pneumonia is too dangerous a disease for anyone to attempt to doctor himself, although he may have the proper remed ies at hand. A physician should always be called. It should be bore in mind, however, that pneumonia always results from a cold or from an attack of the grip, and that by giving Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy the threatened attack of pneu monia may be warded off. This remedy is also used by physicians in the treat ment of pneumonia with the best results Dr. W. J.
