ffhus far for sport." He dropped one n&nd
on hit swordhilt, and bis eyes wandered to
Dirkoritch lolling back in 'hit chair. "But
if, by the will of God, their arise anT other
game which is not the polo game, then be
Kscnred, Colonel Sahib and officers, that we
will play it out side by side, though they,"
sgain his eye sought Dirkovitch, "though
they, I say, have 60 ponies to our one
horse." Ana with a deep-mouthed Bung
ho ! that sounded like a musket butt on flag
stones, he sat down amid leaping glasses.
Dirkoritch, who had devoted himself
steadily to the brandy the terrible brandy
aforementioned did not understand, nor
did the expurgated translations offered to
him at all convey thp point Decidedly
Hira Singh's was the speech of the evening,
una the clamor might have continued to the
dawn had it not been broken by the noise of
a shot without that sent every man feeling
at his defenseless left side. Then there was
a scuffle and a yell of pain.
"Carbine stealing again," said the Adju
tant, calmly sinking back in his chair.
"This comes of reducing the puards. I hope
the sentries have killed him."
The feet of armed men pounded on the
veranda flags, and it was as though some
thing was being dragged.
"Why don't they put him in the cells till
the morning?" said the Colonel, testily.
"See if they've damaged him, Sergeant"
The mess sergeant fled out into the dark
ness, and returned with two troopers and a
corporal, all very much perplexed.
"Caucht a man itealin carbines, sir,"
Eaid the Corporal. "Leastways 'e was
crawlin' toward the barricks, sir, past the
main road sentries, an the sentry, 'e sez,
air "
The limp heap of rags upheld by the three
men groaned. Never was seen so destitute
and demoralized an Afghan. Ue was tur
hanless, shoeless, caked with dirt, and all
but dead with rough handling. Hira
Singh started slightly at the sound of the
man's pain. Dirkovitch took another glass
of brandy.
"What does the sentry say?" said the
Colonel.
"Said e speaks English, sir," said the
Corporal.
"So you brought him into mess instead of
handing him over to the sergeant! If he
cpoke all the tongues of the Pentecost,
you've no business "
Azain the bundle groaned and muttered,
tittle Mildred had risen from his place to
Inspect He j umped back as though he had
teen shot
"Perhaps it would be better, sir, to send
the men away," said he to the Colonel, for
he was a much-privileged subaltern. He
put his armsronnd the rag-bound horror as he
spoke, and dropped him into a chair. It may
'not have been explained that the littleness
of Mildred lay in his being six feet four and
Trig in proportion. The corporal, seeing that
tin officer was disposed to loos: after the cap
ture, and that the Colonel's eye was begin
ning to blaze, promptly removed himself
and his men. The mess was left alone with
the carbine thief, who laid his head on the
table and wept bitterly, hopelessly and in
consolably, as little children weep.
Hira Smch leapt to his feet "Colonel
Sahib," said be, "that man is no Afghan, for
they weep Ail Ai! Xbr is he of Hindustan,
for they weep, Ohl Ho! He weeps after
the fashion ot the white men, who sav On-!
Owl"
"Soxr, where the dickens did you get
that knowledge, Hira Singh?" said the
Captain of the Luslikar team.
"Hear him!" said Hira Sinch. simnlv.
pointing at the crumpled figure, that wept
as though it woula never cease.
"He said, My God 1' " said little Mildred.
"I heard him say it"
The Colonel and the messroom looked at
the man in silence. It is a honible thing to
hear a man cry. A woman can sob from the
top of her palate, or her lips, or anywhere
else, but a man must cry from the top of his
' diaphragm, and it rends him to pieces.
"Poor'dcvil 1" said the Colonel, coujhing
tremendously. "We ought to send him to
hospital. He's been man-handled."
Xow the Adjutant loved his carbines.
They were to him as his grandchildren, the
men standing in the first place. He grunted
rebelliously: "I can understand an Afghan
stealing because he's built that way. But I
can't understand his crying. That makes it
worse."
The brandy must have affected Dirkovitch,
for he lay bark in his chair and stared at the
ceiling. There was nothing special in the
ceiling beyond a shadow as of a huge black
coffin. Owing to some peculiarity in the
construction of the messroom this shadow
was always thrown when the candles were
lighted. It never disturbed the digestion of
the White Hussars. They were in fact
lather proud of it
"Is he going to cry all night?" said the
Colonel, "or are we supposed to sit up with
little Mildred's guest until he 'eels better?"
The man in the chair threw up his head
End stared at the mess. "Oh, my God!" he
eaid, and every soul in the mess' rose to his
feet Then the Lushkar captain did a deed
for which he ought to have been given the
"Victoria Cros distinguished gallantry in
a fight against overwhelming curiosity. He
picked up his team with his eyes as the host
ess picks up the ladies at the opportune mo
ment and pausing only by the Colonel's
chair to say, "This isn't our affair, you
Know, sir, iea mem into tne veranda and
the gardens. Hira Singh was the last to go
and he looked at Dirkovitch. But Dirko
vitch had departed into a brandy paradise
of his own. His lips moved without sound
end he was studying the coffin on the ceil
ing. "White white all over;" said Basset
Bolmer, the Adjutant "What a pernicious
"renegade he must be! I wonder where he
came rom?"
The Colonel shook the man gently by the
arm, and "Who are you?" said he.
There was no answer. The man stared
round the mess room and snnled in the
Colonel's face. Little Mildred, who was
always more of a woman than a man till
"Boot and saddle" was sounded, leueated
the question in a voice that would have
drawn confidences from a geyser. The man
only smiled. Dirkovitch, at" the Tar end of
the table, slid gently from his chair to the
floor. No son of Adam in this present im
perfect world can mix the Hussars' cham
pagne with the Hussars' brandy, by five and
eight glasses of each, without remembering
the pit whence he was digged and descend
ing thither. The band began to play the
tune uitn which the White Hussars from
the date of their formation have concluded
all their functions. They would sooner be
disbanded than abandon that tune; it is a
part of their system. The man straightened
himself in his chair and drummed on the
table with his fingers.
"I don't see why we should entertain
lunatics," said the Colonel. "Call a guard
and scud him off to the cells. We'll look
into the business in the morning. Give
him a glass of wine first, though."
Little Mildred filled a sherry glass with
the brandy and thrust it over to the man.
He drank, and the tune rose louder, and he
straightened himself yet more. Then he put
out his long-taloned hands to a piece of
plate opposite and fingered i. lovingly.
There was a mystery connected with that
piece of plate, in the shape of a spring,
which converted what was a seven-branched
candlestick, three springs on each side and
one in the middle, into a sort of wheel-spoke
candelabrum. He found the spring, pressed
:t and laughed weakly. He rose lrom his
chair and inspected a picture on the wall,
then moved on to another picture, the mess
watching him without a word. When he
came to the mantelpiece he shook his head,
&nd seemed distressed.
A piece of plate representing a mounted
hussar in full uniform caught his eye. He
pointed to it, and then to the mantelpiece
with inquirv in his eves.
"What is"it Oh, what is it?" said little
"Mildred. Then, as a mother speaks to a
child, "That is a horse. Yes, a horse."
Very slowlv came the answer, in a thick,
passionless guttural "Yes, I have seen,
fent where is the horse?"
You could have heard the hearts of the
mess beating, as the men drew back to
five the stranger full room in his wandcr
ags. There was no question of calling the
guard.
Again he spoke very slowly, "Where is
our horse?" ' "
There is but one horse in the White
Hussars, and his portrait hangs outsideof
the messroom. He is the piebald ilrnra
horse, the king, of the regimental band, that
t erred the regiment for 37 yean, and in the
end was shot for old age. Half the mesi
tore the thing from its place and thrust it
into the man's hands. He placed it above
the mantelpiece, it clattered on the ledge as
his poor hands dropped it, and he staggered
toward the bottom ot the table, falling into
Mildred's chair. Then all the men spoke to
one another, something after this fashion:
"The drum-horse hasn't hung over the
mantelpiece since '67. "How does he
know?" "Mildred, go and speak to him
again." "Colonel, what are yon going to
do?" "Oh, dry up, and give the poor
devil a chance to pull himself together."
"It isn't possible, anyhow. That man's a
lunatic"
Little Mildred stood at the Colonel's side,
talking in his ear. "Will vou be good
enough to take your seats, please, gentle
men!" he said, and the mess dropped into
the chairs. Only Dirkovitch's seat, next to
little Mildred's, was blank, and little
Mildred himself had found Hira Singh's
place. The wide-eyed mess sergeant filled
the glasses in dead silence. Once more the
Colonel rose, but his hand shook, and the
port spilled on the table as he loosed
straight at the man in little Mildred's chair,
and said hoarsely: "Mr. Vice, the Queen."
There was a little pause, but the man
sprung to his feet and answered without
hesitation, "The Quesn. God bless her!"
and, us he emptied the thin glass, he
snapped the shank between his fingers.
Long and long ago, when the Empress of
India was a young woman, and there were
no unclean ideals in the land, it was the
custom ot a few messes to drink the Queen's
toast in broken glass, to the huge delight of
the mess contractors. The custom is now
dead, because there is nothing to break anv-
thing for, except now and again the word of
a Government, and that has been broken
already.
"That settles it," said the Colonel, with a
gasp. "He's not a bergeaut What in the
world is he?"
The entire mess echoed the word, and the
volley of questions would have scared any
man. Small wonder that the. ragged, filthv
invader could only smile and shake his
head.
Prom under the table, calm and smiling,
rose Dirkovitch, who had been roused from
healthful slumber by feet upon his body..
By the side of the man he rose, and the man
shrieked and groveled. It was a horrible
sight, coming so swiftly upon the pride and
glory of the toast that had brought the
strayed wits together.
Dirkovitch made no offer to raise him, but
little Mildred heaved him up in an instant
It is not cood that a gentleman who can an
swer to the Queen's toast should lie at the
feet of a subaltern of Cossacks.
The hasty action tore the wretch's upper
clothing nearly to the waist, and his body
was seamed with dry, black scars. There is
only one weapon in the world that cuts in
parallel lines, and it is neither the cane nor
the cat Dirkovitch saw the marks, and the
pupils of his eyes dilated. Also his face
changed. He said something that sounded
like Sfito ve taketc, and the man fawning
answered, Chetvre.
"What's that?" said everybody together.
"His number. That is number four, you
know." Dirkovitch spoke very thickly.
"What has a Queen's officer to do with a
qualified number?" said the Colonel, and
there was an unpleasant growl around the
table.
"How can I tell?" said the affable Orien
tal, with a sweet smile. "He is a howyou
have it? escape runaway, from over
there." He nodded toward the darkness of
the night
"Speak to him if he'll answer you, and
speak to him gently," said little Mildred,
settling the man in a chair. It seemed most
improper to all present that Dirkovitch
should sip brandy as he talked in pnrring,
spitting Russian to the creature who ans
wered so feebly and with such evident dread.
But since Dirkovitch appeared to under
stand no one said a word. They breathed
heavily, leaning forward, in long gaps of the
conversation. The next time that they have
no engagements on hand the White Hussars
intend to go to St, Petersburg in a body to
learn Russian.
"He does not know how many years ago,"
said Dirkovitch facing the mess, "but he
says it was very long ago in a war. I think
that there was an accident He says he was
of this glorious and distinguished regiment
in the war."
"Therollsl The rolls! Holmer get the
rolls!" said little Mildred, and the Adjutant
dashed oil bare-headed to the orderly room,
where the muster rolls of the regiment were
kent He returned jnst in time to hear
Dirkovitch conclude, "Therefore, my dear
friends, I am most sorry to say there was an
accident which would have been reparable
it lie naa apologized to tnat our colonel,
which be had insulted."
Then followed another growl which the
Colonel tried to beat down. The mess w as
in no mood jnst then to weigh insults to
Russian colonels.
"He does not remember, but I think that
there was an accident and so be was not
exchanged among the prisoners, bnt he was
sent to another place how do you say?
the country. So, he says, he came here.
He does not know how he came. Eh? He
was at Chepany" the man caught
the word, nodded and shivered
"at Zhigansk and Irkutsk. I cannot
understand how he escaped. He says, too,
that he was in the forests lor many vears,
but how many years he has forgotteu that
with many things. It was an accident;
done because he did not apologize to that
our colonel. Ah!"
Instead of echoing Dirkovitch's sign of
regret it s sad to record that the White
Hussars lively exhibited unchristian de
light and other emotions, hardly restrained
by their sense ot hospitality. Holmer
flung the frayed and yellow regimental
rolls on the table, and the men flung them
selves atop ot these.
"Steady! Fifty-six fifty-five fifty
four," said Holmer. "Here we are 'Lieu
tenant Austin Limmason. Missing.' That
was beiore Sebastopol. What an infernal
shame! Insulted one of their colonels, and
was quietly shipped off. Thirty years of
his Hie wiped out"
"But he never apologized. Said he'd see
him d d first," chorused the mess.
"Poor chap! 1 suppose he never had
the chance afterward. How did he come
here?" said the Colonel.
The dingy heap in the chair could give
no answer.
"Do you know who you are?"
It laugned weakly.
"Do you know that you are Limmason
Lieutenant Limmason of the White Hus
sars?" Swiftly as a shot came the answer, in a
slightly surprised tone. "Yes, I'm Lamnia
son, of course." The light died out in his
eyes, and he collapsed afresh, watching
every motion of Dirkovitch with terror. A
flight from Siberia may fix a few elementarv
facts in the mind, but it does not seem to
lead to continuity 'of thought. The man
could not explain how.likea homing pigeon,
he had found his way to his own old mess
again. Of what he had suffered or seen he
knew nothing. He cringed before Dirko
vitch as instinctively as he had pressed the
spring of the candlestick, sought the picture
of the drum-horse, and answered to the toast
of the Queen. The rest was a blank that the
dreaded Russian tongue could only in part
remove. His head bowed on his breast, and
he giggled and cowered alternately.
The devil that lived in the brandy prompt
ed Dirkovitch at this extremely inoppor
tune moment to make a speech. He rose,
swaying slightly, gripped the table-edge,
while his eyes glowed like opals, and began:
"Fellow soldiers glorious true friends
and hospitables. It was an accident, and de
plorable most deplorable." Here he smiled
sweetly all round the mess. "But you will
think of this little, little thing. So little, is
it not? The Czar! Posh! I slap my lin
gers I snap my fingers at him. Do I be
lieve in him? No! But in us Slav who has
done nothing, him I believe. Seventy how
much millions peoples that have done
nothing not one filing. Posh! Napoleon
was an episode." He banged a hand on the
table." "Hear you, old peoples, we have
done nothing in the world out here. All
our work is to do; and it shall be done, old
peoples. Get awayl" He waved his hand
imperiously, aud pointed to the man. "You
sec him. He is not good to see. He has
just one little oh, .so little accident, that
no one remembered. Xow he is That, So
will you be. But you will never come back.
mM&&&&- -V&SHffi&afojri
'HE
You will all go where he is gone, or" he
pointed to the great coffin shadow on the
ceiling, and muttering, "Seventy millions
get away, you old peoples," fell asleep.
"Sweet, and to the point," said little'
Mildred. "What's the use of getting
wroth? Let' make this poor deTil comfort
able." But that was a matter suddenly and
swiftlv taken from the loving hands of the
White Hussars. The Lieutenant had re
turned only to go away again three days
later, when the wail of the Dead March and
the tramp of the squadrons told the wonder
ing Station, who saw no gap in the mess
table, that an officer of the regiment had
resigned his new-found commission.
And Dirkovitch, bland, supple, and
always genial, went away, too, by a night
train. Little Mildred and another man
saw him off, for he was the guest of the
mess, and even had he smitten the Colonel
with the open hand, the law of that mess
allowed no relaxation of hospitality.
"Goodhy, Dirkovitch, and a pleasant
journey," said little Mildred.
"Au revoir," said the Russian.
"Indeed! But we thought you were go
ing home?"
"Yes, but I will come again. Mv dear
friends, is that ro-id shut?" He pointed to
where the North star burned over the
Khyoer Pass.
"By Jove! I forgot Of course. Happy
to meet you, old man, any time you like.
Got everything you want? Cheroots, ice,
bedding? That's all right Well, au re
voir, Dirkovitch."
"Urn," said the other man, as the tail
lights of the train grew small. "Of all
the unmitigated 1"
Little Mildred answered nothing, but
watched the north star and hummed a
selection from a recent Simla burlesque
that had much delighted the White Hus
sars. It ran:
I'm sorry for Mister Bluebeard,
I'm sorry to cause lilm pain;
Bat a, terrible spree there's sure to bs

The Susquehanna River One of the
Best of Bass Fishing Grounds.
LARGE, FINELY FLAVORED TROUT.
A List of Some of the Best Trout Streams
In Pennsylvania.
OPEN SEASON FOR ILL GAME FISH
Unquestionably the greatest small-mouth
black bass water in this country is the Sus
quehanna river. The lover of black bass fish
ing in search ofa day's enjoyment cannot go
amiss if he seeks it at any point along that
river. The Susquehanna is a stream of
reefs, islands and rapids and great boulders.
It is where the shelving reefs or walls of
rock reach across the river, the water dash
ing over and forming into deep pools be
low, thnt the Susquehanna bass best thrive
and most love to linger. A notable instance of
this is the remarkable reef a mile above
Halifax, a village 20 miles above Harris
burg. The river is divided into two wide
channels at Halifax by an island a mile
long and a quarter of a mile wide.
During the bass fishing season a sight
that will be a curious one to the stranger is
to be seen daily in this reef. From one end
of it to the other wherever a foothold may
be secured will be fishermen of all sizes and
ages with all sorts and conditions of tackle,
in sunshine or in rain, angling with hel
gramite, "stone roller," worm, minnow and
crawfish for the inevitable black bass.
Glancing along the front of that array of
rustic sportsmen the spectator may literally
see a bass in the air constantly. The num
ber of black bass that are killed at and
about Girty's Falls from June to November
every year is absolutely enormous. Above
the reef, at the head of the long reach of
water, which the influence of the
falls has formed into a swift
but smooth-running current, are
many large sunken rocks with shelving
sides, where the water is very deep.
Around these the largest bass are captured,
but as they are more shy and cautious than
the fish in the pools below, the local anglers
seldom spend time in nslung lor tnem. A.
patient sportsman, with skill and good
tackle, may pass many a rare day with his
boat anchored among these sunken rocks.
It is no rarity for a four-pounder to respond
to a proper cast thereabout, and put the
sportsman to a half hour's brisk fight to win
the trophy. Late in the fall, when the bass
collect in the deep pools and under the pro
tecting rocks, hnndreds of them of enormous
size may be seen bugging the bottom of the
river.
Pennsylvania Streams.
The streams in the vicinity of Blair have
been so neglected in the way of restocking
that they are entirely exhausted. There are
some trout at Falling Springs.
Fishing creek, at Boonville, contains
some trout of a large size in the deep pools
near the rapid water. An expert fly caster,
with plenty of perseverance, may secure
some good fishing on favorable days. At
Tylersburg the creek was so badly washed
by the heavy floods of last June that the
drifts and channels were decidedly changed.
This will injure the trout fishing this sea
son. Trout are very scarce at Mannaville,
Beech creek, Rosecraus and Langdon, while
fishing is excellent at Trout liver and En
glish Center. At Maskeyville speckled
and brook trout arc caught quite plentifully
in the streams. The fish are from 6 to 17
inches hi length. The fishing is said to be
better in those streams in this county which
flow into the Susquehanna.
A Pine Caleb.
The Punxsutawney Spirit says that R.
W. Dinsmore, the Deputy Revenue Col
lector for that district, caught a dozen trout
one day last week ranging in size from 8 to
13 inches long. Old fishermen said they
were the finest trout captured in this coun
try lor years. Air. Dinsmore had a bucket
along in which he placed the fish, and
brought them home alive. He has an arti
ficial lakelet near his house, supplied by a
spring, which is nicely walled up with cut
stone, and in which there are now over a
hundred beauties, many of which are a foot
long, and at least one over 13 inches.
Rich, Juicy Tronr.
It has been many years since the trout
have been so large, so finely flavored and so
great in number as they are this year. From
all the trout streams comes reports of large
catches, and there is every indication that
the year 1890 will be a notable one for trout
anglers. At Henrvville, Monroe county,
ten anglers caught 300 trout An angler at
Canandensis says that notwithstanding
the fact that the water is low and clear, and
that there has been no snow water from the
mountains, he has met with good success.

He has propagated lake, rainbow, brook and

The Wonderful Success of Drs. Cope
land and Blair in Treating
CATARRHAL TROUBLES IS UN
ABATED, "A. short time since the attention of the
public was called to the remarkable success
Drs. Copelandand Blair were having in their
treatment of catarrh and all its various com
plications. Although imitators of their
method of treatment and mode of advertis
ing have sprung up in various sections of
the city, their feeble efforts have met with
no success. Drs. Copeland and Blair still
remain at the head, and their success is un
abated. Dr. W. H. Copeland is personally
in charge ot his extensive practice. To his
skillful treatment and close attention to tbe
various changes in the cases under his care,
are due the wonderful results reached.
miss smith's statement.
Since Dr. Copeland located permanently
in this city, over one year ago, a week has
not gone by in which a new statement of the
proof of his wonderful skill has not been
published. The individual case presented
to the public this week is that of Miss Annie
Smith, of No. 338 Ella street (Bloomfield),
Pittsburg.
Miss Annie Smith. SSS Ella Street.
Miss Smith's trouble had extended over a
period of seven years, and to the writer she
stated tbe following:
"My head and nose wonld stop up. My nos
trils would clog first on one side and then on
the other. There were roaring and bnzzing
noises in my ears. My eyes were weak and
watery. I could feel the mucus dropping into
my throat. I was constantly hawking and
raising.
"A dry, hacking cough set in. which at times
was so violent that my throat would become so
raw and sore that I could hardly swallow.
"Sharp pains wonld shoot throngh my chest,
extonding as far as the shoulder blades. 1 had
no appetite. Tbe very sight of food caused a
nausea in my stomach. Night sweats were
added to my other troubles and weakened me
terribly.
"I conld not sleep, and in the morning was
tired and unrefreshed.
"I grew weaker every day, and was greatly
reduced in weight.
"It was while in this condition that I read of
tbe wonderful success Drs. Copeland &
Blair were having with cases similar to my
own; so determined to see them. I dia so, and,
finding their charges even lower than patent
medicines, placed myself under their care.
Their treatment certainly performed won
ders for me. I am now feeling as well as I ever
did. My head and throat no longer choke up.
The pains in my chest have disappeared, and
the night sweats have ceased. In fact, to state
it briefly, all tbe symptoms 1 mentioned nave
left me. and I owe my rocovery to Drs. Cope
land & Blair."
Miss Smith lives, as stated, at No. 333 Ella St.,
and this interview can be readily verified.
HOME TREATMENT.
Mrs. Robert Ramsey, of Washington, Pa.,
speaking of her successful treatment with Drs.
Copeland & Blair, says: Every fall for tbe past
five years I have been troubled with chronic
dyspepsia. Hive tried countless remedies and
various physicians without any relief. I could
not get eae from pain in any position I wonld
assume. Every breath I drew was like a knife
cutting me. I became weak and pale, losing
greatly in weight.
Since I have been with Drs. Copeland &
Blair all these symptoms have disappeared, and
I now feel as well as I ever did.
Jacob Altmeyer, of Risber, opposite McKees
port. Pa., states: "I commenced treatment for
my catarrhal trouble with Drs. Copeland &
Blair on June 29, 18S9. I now feel like a differ
ent man, and shall be pleased to state my case
and recommend their treatment to anyone ad
dressing me."
Mr. William Barnes, of Hickman. Pa., was
afflicted with catarrh, and had lost all sense of
taste and smell. He was under the care of
Drs. Copeland & Blair, and now states: "I am
perfectly well, and owe my recovery to their
treatment."
M: Harry Phillip', of H niton. Pa., has this
to say of bis successful treatment for catarrh
with Drs. Copeland & Blair: "I was in vpry bad
shape, but now feel ffke a different being, and
as well as I ever did in my life."

PRURITUS.
This Is a nervous affection of tbe skin in
which tbe Una filaments of nerves that are dis
tributed to tbe skin canse the most intolerable
itchiness. The characteristic symptoms of this
disease are an intolerable itching, causing an
uncontrolable desire to scratch. Tbe patient
feels that he must scratch tbe parts or go
crazy. You can examine tbe skin ever so care
fully and vou can find no signs of any eruption,
except that produced by scratching. This dis
ease is always worse at night is increased by
the warmth of the bed. Tbe patient will
scratch and tear the parts, frequently causing
a free flow of blood, and after a restless night
will awaken unrefreshed and mentally de
pressed, dreading tbe coming night again. As
a rulo this disease is worse duringcold weather.
Is a disease of middle life and old age. Is gen
erally local, affecting the lower part of the
body from the waist down, sometimes affects
tbe face and scalp, particularly the nose and
forehead. In some cases the patient declares
that tbe sensation is the same as if mlnuto in
sects were crawling over tho surface. It ex
ists in all degrees of severity from a
slight annoyance to a miserable disease.
In some cases tbe skin becomes barsb, dry and
thickened, accompanied by martine, tingling
and burning, besides tbe itching. Remember
this, the nature ot tbe itching in this disease is
such that the desire to scratch is irresistible,
and cannot be controlled by the strongest wilL
Remember .also that this disease is never con
tagions. Dr. Van Dyck Is pleased to state to the read
ers of thH paper that he has had very extensivo
experience in tbe treatment of this disease,
and has received the most grateful acknowledg
ments from his numerous patients for the re
lief which bis skill has afforded them.

tion, blood or skin disease, any blemish, defect
or discoloration of the skin, complexion, hair
