"Diamond smujrgling," said-Agnt Bracket t, of tlie custom house, "is not so may as you might suppose. Honest dealer leml vitv cllicirnt aid in the detection of the smugglers. Of course, the chief object cf smuetrlinjr is to make money by selling below regular j&ten, and this is very ditlicult to do without losing the goods. The price of diamonds is as well known to deal ers as the price of any staple article. The moment any considerable quantity of diamonds is offered below the regu lar price, suspicion is aroused, and the chances are that the vender will be de tained on some pretense until one of mr officers is put on his track. "It sometimes happens that we are informed of the coniirg of a diamond smuggler, and are waiting on the pier for him. Such was the case with the French thief, li!-arriotte, who was re cently caught with diamonds worth $75,X)0, which he was smuggling in a satchel. The jewels will not bo for tfeited, as the legitimate owner had nothing to do with the smuggling. jSometimes the smugglers are detected by fellow-passengers, who notify the 'custom house on the arrival of the vessel, and we receive the culprits 'with open arms. AVe have found dia monds concealed in cakei of soap, sewed up in clothing, concealed la the hair, packed away in letters, stowed in cravats. In one case a man had a false boot-heel, which was hollow. "When wo unscrewed it we found a handful of precious stones. There are some habitual European travelers who are narrowly watched. A prominent gentleman was nee caught trying to smuggle diamonds in a bladder which was secreted in a cask of wine. The gauger might have poked around for ever with his stick and not have found such a bundle." Another detective oTicer said : " It Is a common trick of pickpockets to call out in a crowd, Look out for your 'valuables.' Every man unconsciously puts his hand on his property, and the thieves then know the precise spot to which they must direct their atten tion. The placing of the hand over the watch or the pocket is involuntary. In like manner the smuggler who lias goods concealed about his person will be likely to expose himself by his very anxiety to avoid detection. The eve of an experienced customs officer will de tect at once the involuntary indications uf this guilty fear. I remember one rase where a passenger had his hand bandaged and his arm in a sling. My partner, who hal just been appointed, was really indignant when he found I proposed to ascertain what was in the bandage. He was not a little aston ished when I discovered snugly stowed away in the folds of the bandage some valuable stones. I had seen enoush to convince me almost as conclusively as if the man had said, "Look out for me, I am trying to smuggle some thing." The philosophy of it is ob vious. The smuggler knows that (within a few moments it will be de tiied whether his illegal venture is to succeed or his property be confiscated. The more valuable it is, the more ob vious will be his trepidation. It would require a man of steel nerves to avoid all the signs that, under such circum stances, will betray him to the ex perienced officer. " One way of smuggling diamonds is to put them in a "belt like a money b;'lt, fitting closely to the body. But the practiced touch of the officer will generally detect this by passing the hands over the outer clothing. In c:i8es ol strong suspicion there is no hesitancy in stripping men and women in the search-room, . the women, of course, being attended by female searchers. Some very funny stories lare told of the expedients adopted for .concealing diamonds where they would not ordinarily D3 looked for. l ew women, however, have the nerve to withstand search, lne men some times show fight, but not often. The officers must, of course, be very cir cumspect in determining on a search Twenty-dollar gold p'eces in a belt ibout a man's body may be mistaken ;for watches, and then the officer gets laughe 1 at ; but he must take that risk, The questions are : ' Have you any thing new and dutiable about your person V and ' Have you more than one watch r " Once I picke 1 out a man in a lot of passengers and determined to search him. My partner laughe 1 at me, as he had not noticed anything Biispicious about the man, and bet me a dinner I would not find anything. I found that un ler his outer clothing the man ha 1 a valuable set of furs, with cuffs, coat and muff, and he frankly ad Tnitted that he was trying to evade the duty. Ho was glad to buy the goods of the custom house at the appraised value. " One way of diamond s miggling is to wrap up the stones in a ball or yarn carried in a lady's po ket. But the gens may easily be found by piercing the ball with a long needle. It is not illficult for an expert to detect stones concealed in the lining of clothing, Long evper ence develops a marvt loua delicacy f touch that reveals the sauvggled goods as quickly i lmot as if they were oi enly di played. I have often detect e I silks aid lacs foiled between 1 .thing in trunks undergoing examination soa e distance oil. 1 have, for instance, observed the unnatural BtiiTno-s of a pair of pantah ons as th' y were turne I over in a trunk, and, upon turning the trousers in-ide out, liave discovered dutiable g ods ins'de. Th's is easy enough when you have had years of practic but a novice might B 'e the san e thing anl not discover any smuggling, 1'eople who wrap thorns Ives up in Hmugglel dry goods gcujrally betray themselves by their Uanaturftl proportions, rome tiuie ago we captured a fe low with li e s wound about all his limbs. It toon us some ti no to unwind him. ' False bottoms in dressing cases, trunks, bandboxes and the like are often used for diamond and jewolry snuggling. One man was caught with a false lining in his hat. One push on the lining revealed the fraud Ono fellow was observed with n hump on his back. Examination disclosed tho fact that his deformity was oeca siono l by forty-two gold watches. His heart was almost broken when wt seied tho goods. AVomen have been detected snuggling valuable? in their chignons, and it is a common thing for, them to lino their dresses with silks and laces, easily disclosed by quick ex ternal examination. " The sense of smell often exposes tho smuggler of attar of roses or oil ol cloves, on which tho duty is heavy. AVc caught one man who had tin cans mado to curl about his body in cres cent shape, lie was making rather frequent visits to the ship, and we traced him to a place in Oreenwich street where he had carried eight of t hese cans, containing about ten pounds of oil of cloves each. Ho was the most fragrant prisoner I ever saw." New York Hun. American tables. A Lion who had long reigned with supreme power over t lie r orest, ono day called a convention of all the beasts and announced his intention of abdicating. " I am growing old and feeble, and I must soon pass away," he argued. " All things considered it is better that my. successor bo nominated and in stalled while I am living to give him the benefits of my experience and ad vice." There was general joy among the Beasts, for tho Lion had lorded it after his own fashion. The Elephant was squinting around, the Khinosceros was pushing Ids nose into the crowd, and the Giraffe was doing a heap of thinking way down his throat when the Lion continued : " After serious reflection and solemn consideration I have decided that my own son shall succeed me. The office will not only be kept in the family, but the family will be kept in office. There being no further business beiore the meeting wo will adjourn." 'But why the need of this conven tion ?" protested the Rhinosceros. " Well, there wasn't any particular need of it," replied the Lion, " but it is customary to call one in order to col lect the expenses of nomination.

Ono day as he was ut tering lamentation a Ilara came along and inquired tho trouble. " 1 am almost at the point of death " was the reply. " I haven't had a mor sel to eat for days." Indeed I" exclaimed the Hare. " 1 11 go and consult the Hyena about it." hen the Hyena was consulted ho stroked hi3 chin reflectively and finally said: " Are you certain that he is a Wolf of good morals ?" "No." "Well, then, I'd better see tho Lion about it before wo do anything." The Lion heard the story, winked in a wise way, and remarked: " There ought to be a committee ap pointed to investigate his character. 1 11 see the Stork and mention the mat ter." The Stork was informed that a "Wolf lay dying of starvation, and she re plied: " Well, well, but that's bad. Ill see the Ox this very afternoon, and have him decide whether we ought to send in tracts or chicken broth." Tho Ox was duly informed, and the next day he walked over to see what should be done in tho case. Arriving at the lair he found tho Wolf dead, and the Owl had already been there and written on the rocks the MORAL. " Philanthropy is a thin tonic for an empty stomach. Detroit Free Press. A Champion Glutton. Alfred Mouehet, a Prussian by birth and residence, d.ed recently. He was by occupation a horse-dealer's assist ant. He was known for many years as " the bucket-man." But his title to fame serenely rests upon the fact that he was the champion glutton of the French capital. On one occasion he devoured at a single meal a whole tur key, a leg of mutton, a pound of cheese, several pounds of bread and a bucket ful of wine. In 18 b ho had an eating match with one Dietrich, who was only able to eat eight pounds of mut ton, eight pounds of beef and several pounds of bread, and was therefore badly beaten. Dr. Lac-hat once stated in the Academy of Medicine that with the exception of a Basque named Lo rion, who regularly ate fifteen pounds of bread a day, Mouehet was the great est eater that ever lived.

All these effects have a dohnite cause, and, after years of deep experience upon this subject, I do not hesitate to ray that this oattse is to be found in somo de rangement of the kidneys or liver far away from that portion of the body in which these effects appear. But one may say, I have no pain whatever in my k:d leys or liver. Very tins. Neither have we any evidence that there is a tornado on the su f.u e of the sun; but it is none the less certain that the tor nado is here, and it is none the less certain that tin S3 g e it organs of the body are tho cause ot thetrojble although there may bj no pain in their vicinity. I know v her of I Bp. alt, for I have rnss d through tins very exi erience myself. Nearly ten years ago 1 was the picture of health, weighing moro than 200 pounds, and at strong und healthy as any man I ever knew. When I le'.t the symptoms 1 have above de scribed they caused me annoyance, not only by rjasm of their aggravating nature, but because I had never le t any pain I e ore. (. tier doctors told me I was troubled Willi malaria, ai d I treated myt elf accordingly. I did net believe, however, that malaria could show such aggravated symptoms. It never occurred to me that analysis would l.e p solve the trouble, as i did n t presume my ditlieulty was located in .bat portion of the body. But 1 continued to grow worse. 1 hid a faint sensation ut the pit of my (timac-h nearly every day. I felt a great desire to eat, and yet I loathed food. 1 w as contant'y t rediani still I could not sleep. My brain was unusual y active, but 1 coald not think connectedly. My existence was a living misery. I continued in this condition for nearly a year; never free from pain, nover for a moment happy. Sucti an exist ence is far wor.-e than death, for which I enf ess I earnestly longed. It was while suff. r.ng thus that a friend advised me to make a final attempt to re cover my health. I sneered inwardly at his suggestion, but I was too weak to make any resistance. He furnished me with a remedy, simple yet palatable, and within two days J observed a slight change for the better. This awakened my courage. I felt that I would not die at that lime. I continued the use ot the remedy, taVjng it in accordance with directions, until I became not only restored to my former health and strength, but ot greater vigor than I have ever before known. This condition has continued up to tho pres ent time, and I believe I should have died as mire-ably as thonsauds of other men have died and are dying every day had it not been for the simple yet wonderful powor of War ner's Safe Cure, the remedy I employed. The lecturer then described hii means of restoration more in detail, and concluded as follows : My complete recovery has cause! me t investigate the subject more carefully, and 1 I e'ieve I have discovered the key to most ill health of our modern civilization.

Brass TAftE ItAM.I A W M THK tH.li.H ' 1 I H "1 Tho Peculiar OA1 Mystery I It was one of the peculiarities of the old-fashioned Doctors that they never would tell patients what they were prescribing for them. They said it would do the patients no good to know, and that it would only be grati fying a foolish curiosity. In order to keep patients from knowing, they would write the prescriptions in dog-Latin, so that most patients could not read them. All that sort of thing is now over. Thepatient wants toknow what he takes. He is weak, and wants to be strong, or he .3 dyspeptic, and wants to digest well. Or he has a troublesome liver which he wants to put to rights. So he takes Crown's Iron Bitters about which there is no mystery at all. Thi3 is the best preparation of iron in the world, in com bination with gentle yet efficient tonics. It gives strength. It builds up enfeebled systems. It enriches impoverished blood. It-removes feminine weaknesses. It casts out debility, Jt ig what YOU want, and your drik vist hag it. i . Thousand Hastened to Their Oramel Relying on testimonials written in vivid glowing language of some miraculons cure made by some largely puffed up doctor or patent medicine has hastened thousands to their graves; believing in tholr almost in sane faith that tha same miracle will b performed on thorn, and that these testi monials make the cures, while the so-callej medicine is all the ttmo hastening them to their graves. We have avoided publishing; testimonials, as they do not make the cures although we havo TltOTJBANDS trrOlf TTtOCSAin of thorn, of the most wonderful on res, vol untarily sent us. It ia our medioine, Hop Bitters, lhat makes the cures. It has never failed and nover can.
