There Is mere Catarrh In this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the lust few years
was supposed to ho Incurable. Kor a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, nnd by constantly falling to
cure with locul treatment, pronounced
It Incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease, and there
foro requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catnrrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is tho
only constitutional cure on tho market.
It is taken Internally hi doses fiom 10

ELECTRICAL. FAKIRS.
How the Subtle Fluid Is Applied by
Swindlers and Quacks.
From tho Chicago Record. '
Taking for his text the "reverend''
promoter of the late electrolytic salts
swindle, the lucrative activity of
Keely, and of Pennock of battery no
torlety, Jacques L. Mcygan pays his
addresses to modern electrical fakirs,
whose operations, he says, are charac
terized by Impudence which Is suc
cessful only because It Is so colossal as
to paralyze all attempts to gauge
it. The antediluvian electric-belt scion
tlst still charges his harness with red
pepper, and tho electric-bottle mnn Pro
duces the gentle Illusion of bis craft
with essential oil of mustard; the dis
honest Jockey simply lets his mount
loaf along till he Is on the home
stretch, when he connects his noble
steed with the electric 'gear under
his saddle, and the effect Is instantan
eous. The burglar now discords the
"Jimmy" and drill, nnd melts his way
noiselessly Into the treasury safe with
a carbon and a few feet of wire. The
loaded dice of the gambling cheat Is a
clumsy device alongside of the mag
netic roulette ball. Concealed under
tho arm of the croupier's chair are
buttons corresponding to the red, black,
odd, even, high, low and rows of num
bers. These buttons connect by com
mutators to electric magnets on the
wheel, tho ivory ball having a soft
Iron core of high permeability. There la
no piece of metal In existence which

bllltles of the busy little magnetic core
of tho roulette hall. These are Instan
ces of tho turning of electrical prin
ciples to dishonest ends. One of Mr.
Morgan's Illustrations of fakes, pure
and simple, Is the Kansas "electric
spring," to which thousands of people
continue to flock for the cure of their
ailments until It was discovered that
the patients got their shock by stand
ing on nn Iron plate connected with
a battery a short distance from the
well. As a personal experience, Mr.
Morgan tells of a "doctor" who Invited
his approval of on "electric lounge."
After showing the mechanism of the
lounge, which consisted nt thirty-two
electric magnets undernenth the sur
face, he "explained that with tho
double-throw switch he could get a
steady stream of magnetic lines
through your system, much as you
would spurt water on a chained dog,
nnd with the other throw of the switch
he had Instantly the short-arm Jab
effect derived from the altermMng
current." The eaucl of the Investiga
tion Is thus told: "Upon closer exam
ination I saw that one of tho wires
wns disconnected, The wily contractor
hnd simply wound tho magnets with
only scrap wire he happened to have
and then left the circuit open knowing
that tho machine was ns potent with
out tho current ns with It. An em
ploye of the llrm that mnde the ma
chine wns present, nnd nt my sugges
tion he reluctantly closed tho circuit
nnd threw tho switch on the 'short-arm
Jab' side for a trial trip. The effect was
marvelous. The thirty-two mngnets
vnporlzed like shots from a. rapid-fire
slx-pounder, the excelsior stulllng took
fire, and the doctor danced around
wildly nnd howled. 'Turn her off!
Turn her off!" When the current was
turned off nnd tho dense white smoke
from the excelsior nnd the sickening
fumes from the burnt shell.tek
nnd varnish had somewhat nbated,
there was seen the electric lounge In a
wreck, the chandelier In the same con
dition, a group of excited tenants, who
hail rushed In from the ndjacent ofllces
nnd n very woeful nnd disgusted "elec
trical doctor."

A NATURAL FOG HORN.
At the Fnralloncs the erosive agents
have worked with queer caprice. This
rock being grnnlte. has been acted upon
by the sea ut nil levels, and through the
long period when It has been rising out
of tho water depths. Through u long,
nurrnw hole, slanting and communicating
with tho oceun, there comes nt Inter
vals a terrific stream of ulr, forced by
the spasmodic heaving of tho wuvcb
against tho lower orifice. Tho govern
ment, which uses this lfland for light
house purposes, Inclosed the upper end
with the nozzle of a fog horn, and every
few second there was blown an ear-spllt-Ing
brawl, which was heard fur out nt
tea and above tho din of the breaking
rollers. It was allowed to rour only In
foggy weather, but It was eccentric In
that It would only fcound ut high tide.
When tho tide was low, although the
weather might be very thick, tho thing
wan silent. For lack of Its warning n
ship went aihore upon the Islund rocks,
nnd then It was that the government
nb.tndGr.ed its location on the wind hole
end erected n steam siren, or mechanical
fog horn, which has since very faithfully
performed the neceernry bervlce, Har
per's Mncailne.
