Wonderful Cure of a Lad 12 Years old,
who for 8 years, from the top of his
head te his ankles, was one
Mass of Scabs.
My son, a lad twelve years et age. was af
flicted with the worst form of Eczema ler a
period of eight years. Se virulent was it that
from the top et his head te within a few Inches
of his ankles he was one mass of scabs, which
refnsed te yield te any treatment that was
suggested uy friends or physicians was tried
In vain. Allepathy. homa!epathy,herb3,roots,
alt-water baths, flaxseed poultices, teaps.
ointments, and in short every tiling that could
be done te eradicate the disorder B?emed only
te aggravate It and the child's life became a
burden te him,and the expense of the various
experiments was a constant drain upon our
resources.
My wife, reading the advertisement of the
Cuticuba Remedies in one of the daily papers,
rca'jiveu ve maKe one mero attempt ai H cure.
(The disease was new encroaching upon Ms
face, and seemed Incurable.) I j;ave a reluc
tant consent te the proposal, and an interview
was sought with a famous ladyphys'clan of
New Yerk, who made a most thorough exami
nation ettbe case, anr premised a cure with
out the least hesitation by the use of your
Cuticuea Remedies. In one week there was a
marked change; the raw and argry sores be
gan te erew pale and along the eutr edges
scaled off, and as time wero en they began te
disappear entirely, until at the present writ
ing the only vestige is ene small spot upon
the forearm, scarcely visible and fast disap
pearing. Thus alter eight years et expense and
anxiety, we have the lntense satisfaction of
seeing the child's skin as fair and smooth as It
was before this dreadful cutaneeus disorder
attacked him. Sincerely yours.

An Elizabethan raaiOpOla Fashioned
Mau-trap Guard Beuse and a
Kitchen of the Olrten Time A
Yorkshire ilea.
Lucy N. Heeper in the Philadelphia Evening
xeiegrapa. ,
I have been much interested, since my
arrival in Yorkshire, in noting the differ
ence between the country homes of Eng
land and these of France. As te any
comparison between the' two none what
ever is possible. A French chateau, se
far as I have seen, is one of the most
comfortless places imaginable. There is a
total absence of all mode rn appliances for
convenience and household comfort. The
furniture usually dates from seme bygone
period, aud chiefly from the epoch of the
first empire. The supply of carpets is
limited te the main hall ami staircase and
te the best drawing room. Iconoclasts as
regards their historic buildiegs.the French
are conservative se lar as tueir domestic
arrangements are concerned. They saam
te take none of the pride and pleasure in
their country residences' that are evident
in the details of such abodes in England.
I de net Epeak of such show places as
Beaureguard and Ferrieres(the latter being
he seat of the Baren de Rothschild), but of
the ordinary country home of the average
well te de gentleman. ' In France, such
houses are almost invariably as cheerless
as possible. They may possibly contain a
wealth of antique porcelain, or seme cu
rious old furniture or 'tapestries, but they
are guiltless of gas," carpets, het and
cold water, and ether 'miner adjuncts te
home comfort. In England the extreme
of luxury is joined te the extreme of com
fort in the splendid homes of the Yerk
bhire gentlemen. There is evidently the
same loving pride experienced!", decking
and fitting up the family home as is shown
by a fend mother in adorning a beloved
daughter. One realizes fully the lack cf
what the Angle Saxons style the leve of
home in the French nature, when compar
ing the charm of an English interior with
the charmless abodes of the French. It is
net that money is lacking ; there are plenty
of wealthy proprietors in the French pre
vinces, but somehow they de net cire
about their home surroundings. They
seem te lack a sense of the beauty of an
elegant residence, and of the pleasure te
derived from living in it.
Of the three most beautiful modern resi
dences in the neighborhood, Cliffe castle,
Malsis hall, and Oakworth house, I have
already spoken. I have recently visited
seme of the elder houses in the district,
ene of which, known' as Kildwick hall,
dates in part from the reign of Queeu
Elizabeth. The main portion of the edi
fice stands nnaltered from the time of its
completion in the sixteenth century. The
subsequent additions have preserved the
architectural features of the elder building
aud the result is au admiral and pictur
esque whole. Over the grey stoue of the
facade spring myriads of climbing re.-.es,
mingling their bloom and sweetness with
the glossy green of the ancient ivy
that clothes the old hoase as with a man
tle. On entering, ene finds oneself in a
great square hall, wainscoted with dark
shining oak, and furnished with cabine'.
chairs and vast tabic, all elaborately
carved nnd all in the same dark polished
weed. Be3ide the great cavernous fireplace,
new fitted with a modern grate, stands a
spinning wheel in black polished oak, en
which the thread for many a fair web of
linen was spun by the ladies of the heusct
in bygone days. ur host pointed out te
us the immense thickness et the wall of
massive btece, and showed us where a
former proprietor had cased the stone
arches in weed, thinkjpg the bare stone
quite tee inelegant te be left uncovered.
Outside the house, and beyond the velvet
lawn where huge old trees, that were in
their prime long before the hall was built,
threw flickering shadows en the soft green
sward, is a beautiful old-fashioned garden,
laid out in terraces, and with an antique
stena fountain, its basin overgrown with
water lilies, sending up a slender thread of
spray in the midst of the roses. At one
side spread that genuine delight of old
fashioned heusekeepars, a bed of lavender,
a relic of the ancient days when every
lady had her linen pres3 piled high with
homespun web3, all fragrant with the
sweetness of this flowery herb. Beyond
the arched gateway, en either side of
which a stone Hen steed with uplifted paw,
a peacoek trailed his shining plumage in
the sun. I felt as though I were living in
someone of Miss Yonge's no vels, or as if
the days of Queen Bess had re
turned, and that through that gateway
I should presently see emerge a
dame in ruff and farthingale, accompanied
by a cavalier in a doublet and trunk hose
of black velvet, who approaching me,
would ask in courtly phrase if I had been
te LoLden of late and what I thought of
the last play by Master Shakespeare. But
mine host dispelled this vision by present
ing himself befere me, a very modern
figure in substantial broadcloth, and by
asking me if I would net like te see a relic
of old customs in the shape of one of the
man traps, which, seme thirty or lerty
years age, used te be set in private grounds
for the capturing of trespassers. '' Man
traps and Spring Gans Set Here," used te
be net unfrequently the warning conveyed
by a staring placard te wanderers in the
neighborhood of these jealously guarded
weeds and fields. The usn of such pre
tective engines is new prohibited by law,
but seme few of the'mau traps are still te
be found preserved as relics in the etT,
houses of such antique mansions as
Kildwick hall. I did net wonder
that the law interfered te pro pre
vent the use of sueh a cruel ma
chine as that which, in very rusty
iron, was brenght forth for my inspec
tion. I am net learned enough in machi
nery te give a very intelligible description
of it ; suffice it te say that two square
frames of iron, bordered with teeth an
inch and a half in length, were arranged
in such a manner as te lie upon the ground
en cither side of a fiat piece of iron, two
long bars filled with strong springs pro
jecting atthc ends. In case anyunwaiy
passer by should set his feet en the ireu
plate, the t we cquare frames would in
stantly spring up and close together, grip
ping the unfortunate trespasser's leg a3 in
a pair of iron jaws. I should fancy that a
young and slender-boned man might easily
have bad his leg broken by such a machine
and at all events it must have tern the
flesh savagely unless the victim had en a
pair of long heavy beets. It was a horrid -looking
affair, net fit te set te catch
wolves in, much less men. The old gard
ener of the hall said he remembired once
seeing it set en the front deer stone en
one occasion, when there was talk of
burglars in the neighborhood, some forty
years age. Fer such gentry it was none
tee severe, but, I believe, en that occasion
nobody was captured.
An nher quaint residence in the neigh
borheod is Guard Heuse, the abode of Mr.
Jeshua Brigg. It was built in the year
1G45 as the headquarters of the troops in
this district (or perhaps as a pest of obser
vation) during the civil war. The im
mense thickness of the walls of massive
6tone giyes one the idea of a fortress.
The rooms are furnished in modern style,
ENGLISH I0MES.
all except the great kitchen, which is an
exact reproduction of these one finds de
scribed in old fashioned novels. The rows
of shining pawter dishes against the wall,
the sheets of oatcake and flitches of bacon
suspended from the rafters overhead, the
latticed windows shaded with roses, the
furniture in massive oak, black with age
and shining like a looking-glass, and the
universal freshness and cleanness of every
thing, all go te make up a most attractive
picture. Twe antique settees, or rather
chests, ie black polished oak covered with
elaborate carving, and canturies old, were
formerly used te store bacon in. Nowa
days they would drive a lever of old furni
ture wild with delight and would fetch un
told sums at Sypher's or the Hetel Dreuet.
The cooking of the establishment is net
performed in this picturesque room, a
smaller apartment, fitted up with a great
range and ether modern conveniences be
ing devoted te that purpose. It was at
Guard Heuse that I was first introduced te
that sumptuous meal, a Yorkshire tea.
The beard literally groaned nnder its
freight of delicacies, a lordly bam and a
pair of roast fowls being the pieces de
resistance. Then there were stewed
chicken and trout and cold tongue, bread
and butter in half-a-dozen forms, York
shire tea cake toasted and buttered,
another and peculiarly rich tea cake known
as " sod cake," which resembles our
Maryland biscuit, but is as rich as pie
crust taitlets, sweet cake in several forms,
preserves, pickles, strawberries and cream,
great dishes of gooseberries and cherries,
etc., etc. It would have taken the ap
petite of a giant, combined with the di
gestion of an e3trich, te have enabled any
one of the guests te de justice te one half
of the delicacies that were set before us.
Then before we departed a second colla
tion of fruit and cream was prepared, but
I must confess that net even the attrac
tion of gigantic strawberries and cream
that wrinkled up and positively objected
te be poured, out could indnee me te
touch another mouth ful after the extensive
and tempting meal of which I 'had just
partaken. But it is an undeniable fact
that the cold rainy, depressing climate of
England allows of the consumption of
feed in quantities that would be positively
injurious in a milder and drier atmos
phere The hours of meals in Yorkshire are
these which were in vogue in Philadelphia
seme thirty years age. Breakfast is at 8,
dinner at half past 1 or 2, and tea at half
past 7 or 8, the latter being always a geed
substantial meal, with het cakes, cold
meats, preserves, etc. Tea is invariably
oflered te afternoon callers, with accem
panimeuts of cake and of thin bread and
butter. The fare is always of the best in
the solid, substantial fashion that the
English heart delights iu, and assuredly
it would be a palate that was excessively
bard te please that would net find full
satisfaction in the famous muttenfcultry,
hams and bacon, the well fatted fowls,
well made pastry, and rich cream of the
county. Then such a superb profusion
of fruit a I have seen en the table
of mine host of Cliffe castle ! strawber
ries and cherries of true- English perfec
tien, side by side with het house peaches,
melons and immense bunches of the black
Hamburg grapes. It reminds one of the
gardens in the old fairy tales, wherein all
kinds of fruit were ripe at the same time.
It must ba confessed, however, that the
beautiful velvety peaches lack the saver
and perfume and sweetness of our own
well sunned fruit, but the strawberries are
incomparably fine. He that would eat
fruit iu perfection must partake of straw -bsrries
and gooseberries in England, cher
ries and apricots in France, and melons
and peaches in the United States. And,
gourmands as the French are, they have
never yet understood the deliciousness of
cream as an adjunct te strawberries and
raspberries nay, mere, they call straw
berries and cream a mess, and it is en
record hew a distinguished Frenchman,
being presented with a plate of that deli
cacy at a Londen garden party recently,
looked at it in dismay and asked, " What
am I te de with this ?"
Sf.KW HKtt HUSBAND.
The 'ierrlule Deed of a Wife.
Lewis Lawrence Cenrad, a well known
Baltimere lawyer, and his wife, Minnie
Worthington Cenrad, b'ad been living for
some time at Montmorency, the estate of
Mrs. Mary G. Woithmgten.
Mrs. Worthiugten, who is the mother of
Mrs. Cenrad, was awakened about 1
o'clock, Tuesday morning, by her daugh
ter, who ran into the room crying :
"Mether, I have killed my husband.
Ob, my Ged ! I Lave killed him !
Mrs. Woithiagten sprang te her feet,
and, rushing te her daughter, discovered
that sh3 had in hand a small revolver.
Mrs. Worthington's shrieks brought her
son Jehn Telly Worthiugten te the scene,
and together they hurried te Mr. Cenrad's
room. They found that gentleman lying
up.jii the bed, his head iu a peel of bleed
and a larc around in the lett side of his
head, from which the bleed was slowly
oozing.
A. messenger was at once despatched for
Dr. J. N. Dieksen at Reisterstown, who
arrived at the house shortly after. The
doctor saw at once that life was extinct,
and upon examination found that death
had been instantaneous. The ball had
entercd the left side of the head, about
au inch and a half above the ear, and had
penerated te the centre of the brain.
The news of the terrible eccurrence
spread rapidly, and by daylight a number
of friends and acquaintances had called te
ascertain the truth of the report and con
dole with the family. Mrs. Cenrad had
ie the meantime been removed te another
room in a violent state of hysterics. She
was perfectly rational, heweve r, and gave
a lucid and clear statement as far as her
excited condition would permit, going
te show that the sheeting may have been
accidental.
The lady has been Buffering since last
January with an acute neuralgia of the
stomach and bowels, which at stated
periods seemed almost te derange her
mind. She stated te the doctors that he:
suffering was se great that she had re
resolved upon suicide as the only method
of relief, and te that end had taken te bed
with her a smalt revolver, and secreted the
weapon beneath her pillow.
Between 12 and 1 o'clock she said her
sufferings became unbearable, and she
saized the pistol rcielved te end her life.
In turning it around.hewever, the weapon
exploded and killed her husband. She
does net remember whether her hus
band awoke or net, but from the position
et the body it is thought that Mr. Cenrad
was awakened by bis wife's movements
and raised up and encouraged her te re
main quiet.
The admonition coming suddenly upon
her, ic is thought, startled the' lady, and
in her excited and nervous condition the
weapon exploded. A coroner's jury re
turned a verdict that the death was from
accident
This verdict, however, is net in accord
with the views of many people in the
neighborhood, who believe that Mrs.
Cenrad, in a moment of temporary iasasi
ty, pointed the pistol at her husband's
head and fired. There is a streak of in
sanity running through both branches of
the family, Jehn Telly Jehns, one cousin,
having murdered Mr. Charles White in a
fit of insanity a few months age. Mrs.
Cenrad was once a handsome woman, but
is new emaciated by continued sickness.
Mr. Cenrad was born the 3d day of July
1839. in the state of Mississippi. He en
tered the Confederate army at the break
ing out of the war. and was for some time
captain en Gen. Buckner's staff. His
father was Charles M. Cenrad, at one
time secretary of war under President
Fillmore. Mr. Cenrad's grandfather was
a nephew of General Washington, and his
grandmother was Nellie Custis, daughter
of Mrs. Washington.
Mr. Cenrad owned large estates in New
Orleans and was very wealthy. He mar
ried Miss Worthington about thirteen
years age. The issue of the union is one
child, a boy about 11 years old. Their
domestic life has always, heretofore been
a happy ene. The Worthington family
is ene of the most prominent in the
county.

Frem Rath, Me., we have received, under
date et May 15, 1SS3, the lolle wing statement te
uke. W. HAnmsejf, the popular proprietor of
"The Restaurant" : " A few years since I was
troubled se severely with kidney and bladder
afiectlen that there was b tick-dust deposits In
my urine, and continual desire te urinate,
with severe, darting, sharp pains through my
bladder and side, and again, dull, heavy pres
sure, very tedious te endure. I consulted one
of our resident physicians, but I received no
benefit from the treatment, and fearing that
my symptoms indicated . ' Brlght's Dhcase,'
the most dreadful et all diseases, I made up
my mind that I must obtain relief speedily or
I would be past cure. I consulted my drug
gist, Mr. .Webber, and after ascertaining my
symptems,be recommended the use of Hunt's
Remedy, as he knew of many successful cures
eflected by that meJiclne in similar cases here
In Bath. I purchased a bottle, and before 1
nail used the flrst bottle I found I had received
a great benefit, as I sullcred less pain, my
water became mero natural, and 1 began te
improve se much that the sccondbettlc effect
ed a cemplete cure; nnd my thanks arc due te
Hunt's Remedy ler restored health, and I
cheerfully recommend this most valuable and
reliable medlclne te my lricnds, as I consider
it a duty as well as a plcasure te de se."
"Being well acquainted with Mr. Goerge W.
Harrison at the time of bis sickness, retcrrcd
te in the foregoing testimonial, I can certily
te the correctness cf the statement made by
him. W. G. Wehder, Druggist.
