Thompson's Barosma, Kidney and Liver Cure
Is not only performing wonderful cures, as the following statements
will prove, but all the cures have bsen permanent, there being no re
turn of the disease or any of the symptoms after a lapse of many years.
E. K. Thompson & Soy, Titusville, Pa.: Dear Sirs Sevenil years ago I was taken
with kidney and bladder disease, nnd suflkred with terrible pains, besides losing con
trol of the action of my kidneys and bladder. A number of doctors bad my case nt
different times, hut I received no benefit, nnd wat Kiven np as incurable and fully ex
pected death would relievo my sufferings. A friend recommended HAKO.SMA and I
Iwir.ui taking it At first I could see little chanj?5, but after taking about six bottles,
1 began to pet better. I continued to use it and today am entirely cured. I nm an
old resident of this county and am well known in this section, nnd consider myself a
walking advertisement for your TRULY WONDERFUL medicine. BAROSMA.
Yours respectfully, NATHAN BURDICK, West Hickory, Pa.
The first bottle did me so much good that I bought the second and it cured me of
female weakness, with which I hnd leen troubled more than two years. I gained in
strength and flesh and have been well ever since. This was six years ago.

AN OLD CHURCH BELL
IT CAME FROM LISBON AND HANGS
IN A NANTUCKET CHURCH.
The Story of It Iurrline by Captain
tlnxbr nnd Its Transportation to
Thia Country A Very Good Clock
nnd a Very Fine Itell.
Ilenenth the outlook lu n Nantucket
church Is the belfry, in which swings
the "old Spanish bell." Knowing that
this Is now a Unitarian church, the vis
itor will be surprised to see a Catholic
cross on the bell. If he could road Por
tuguese and had not previously ac
quainted himself with the history of
the bell he would be still more sur
prised at the Inscription on It. The
translation of this Inscription Is as fol
lows: "To the Good Jesus of the Moun
tain the devotees of Lisbon direct their
i-rayors. offering Him one complete set
of six bells, to call the people to adore
him In his sanctuary. Jose Doiulngos
Ducosta has made It lu Lisbon in the
year 1S10." Of course the boll must
have an Interesting history to account
for this Inscription. That history Is
briefly ns follows:
A plague was raging In Lisbon nnd
certain people in that city prayed to
the Virgin Mary for the cessation of
the plague nnd vowed to place a set of
six bells lu the Church of the (Jood
Jesus of the Mountain If their prayers
were heard. "The Mountain" Is the
name of a certain district lu the city
of Lisbon In which there Is a very ven
erable church called as above. Shortly
after this the plague ceased, and, ac
cepting this ns the answer to their
prayers, these devotees of Lisbon pro
ceeded to fulfill their vows. The work
of casting these six bells was Intrusted
to Jose Ponilngos Hacosta, the best
bell founder In Lisbon.
The six bells had been cast, the mas
ter's labors had been crowned with
success, when Captain Clasby of the
Nantucket whaling fleet chanced to
visit Llstmn. He had long wished to
buy a bell for use In bis native town.
In company with Captain Cary he
visited the bell foundry of Jose Do
mingos Dncosta. Captain Cary, it
seems, was a connoisseur in bells. Pa
costa applied the lever to one boll after
another as he struck each to ascertain
its peculiar tone or tone quality, but
each time Captain Cary said, "That
will not do."
At last Dacosta raised and struck
the bell whose history we are describ
ing. Captain Cary was delighted with
the result. "Ah, Clasby," he said,
"you need look no further. That's the
bell you want. She Is a beauty. She
sounds on B."
"Well, sir," remarked Uacosta, "we
consider that to be the finest boll that
we have In our foundry."
At first Dacosta demurred nnd could
not see his way clear to selling the
boll, since It belonged to the set of
chimes designed for the Church of the
Good Jesus of the Mountain and was
appropriately Inscribed and all. but
Captain Clasby would have no other.
Finally Dacosta decided, since the bell
had not yet been consecrated nnd since
he could cast another to take its place,
that it would be all right to sell.
So Captain Clasby bought the bell,
nnd it was brought to Nantucket by
Captain Cary, whose vessel was going
home first. In Lisbon, just before he
set sail, Captain Car' heard of the dec
laration of war with Great Britain,
for it was now the year 1812. On the
way over they were spoken by a Brit
ish sloop of war. Fortunately the Brit
isher had been nt sea for some time
and had not yet heard of the declara
tion of war. "The commander asked
Captain Cary the news, but Captain
Cary says he took especial pains not
to tell all he knew. If he had told, our
precious bell would probably never
have seen Nantucket. It might now be
cither at the liottoui of the sea or It
might be swinging in the tower of
some English church.
The bell was landed lu Nantucket
nnd placed in the store cellar of Sam
uel Cary. where It remained until ISlo,
when it was purchased and placed In
the tower where It now hangs. About
$."00 was given for the boll the society
paid about ?a."0 and the rest was raised
by subscription. Even some Irlends
or Quakers subscribed.
After the bell had been in use a little
while the agents of the historic Old
Soulh church In Boston heard of it. and
they sent a letter to the agents of the
South church in Nantucket, saying that
they had a very good clock in their
tower, but no bell; that they had heard
that the South church In Nantucket
hnd a very fine bell, and they would
like to know for how much the bell
could be bought.
The Nantueketers replied that they
had a very fine bell In their tower, but
no clock; that they had heard that the
Old South church had a very fine tower
clock, and that they would like to
know the price of the clock.
The agents offered to pay ?l a pound
for the boll. Since the boll weighs
1,575 pounds, this would have made
the price $1.57.", making a net profit of
$1,075 above the price paid for the bell
and $1,225 above Ihe amount contrib
uted by the society. It seems that the
old Nantueketers must hnve had some
sentiment after all nnd were not purely
mercantile In their spirit.
If the Nantueketers had agreed to
sell, as they might have done, our bell
would probably be hanging in the his
toric tower of Old South church in
Boston today. That might have boon
a great honor for the bell, but it would
iave been n great deprivation for Nan
tucket. Moreover. It would now be
spending Its time In elegant leisure In
stead of being a very useful bell where
It is. The history' of this bell is like a
veritable parable of human life. The,
(possibilities which occur In the history
of the bell remind us of the possibilities
Which nbound In every life. Cor.

CURE FOR HICCOUGHS.
Simple Srlentllle Itemedy That Gives
Immediate Itellef.
An attack of hiccoughs brings Its vic
tim less sympathy perhaps than almost
any other ailment, the main reason be
ing that, except In very rare cases. It
Is not attended with fatal results and
that In most cases it attacks otherwise
healthy persons. Still, It Is one of the
most annoying nnd most obstinate of
ditllcultlos. While the effort to cure It
Is being inad1 It generally dlsapivnrs,
yet It resists the most vigorous effort
of the will lo control Its vagaries.
A hiccough Is a quick. Involuntary,
Inspiratory movement ' the dia
phragm, brought suddenly to a stop
by an Involuntary closing of the glot
tis. The muscles that control these
two portions of the human anatomy
are Incessant workers. They wait on
every breath without being guided by
the will nnd even work while we sleep.
While they do their duty life passes,
tranquil, calm nnd pacific, but if from
any cause a disturbing element enters
iuto their bailiwick they rebel, are be
yond the control of the will and, hav
ing no guide, as it were, run away, nnd,
like any runaway, have no care for the
damage done. The effort to remove
the disturber Is the cause of the hic
cough, and the following method of
treatment arrests these muscles In their
wild escapade, brings them back to
their duties, and, like the patient serv
ants they are, they resume their work
and life becomes ns placid as before:
First, expel all the air from your
lungs very, very quickly. The portion
of the body they attend to Is, as It
wore, collapsed, nnd now commences
the next nnd concluding part of the
cure.
Second, commence to fill your lungs
with air. but do so very slowly, but
steadily. Pucker your mouth, and If
possible leave an opening of your lips
no larger than a pin, nnd through this
Inhale the air. Fill your lungs, raise
your arms and throw out your chest,
and when you are full these muscles
resume their regular duties and the
hiccoughs are gone. Brooklyn Eagle.

COURTESY IN THE HOME.
It la Koutlnl to HanplneH In the
Family Circle.
There Is no place where thcro Is
greater need of true, refined, everyday
courtesy or where It will bo more
greatly appreciated than In the home
circle. Vet lu how many households do
we see an entire lack of It.
The husband conies lu tired and Bur
ly, huirles down his meal, gives the
cat a kick nnd departs without one
kind word or gracious act to any one.
The children are noisy and quarrel
some. The mother, tired and nervous,
has only Bhnrp, recriminating words
for her husband, the children nnd the
servant. The whole atmosphere lip
pears surcharged with the very quint
essence of disturbing and dishearten
ing elements.
Let a visitor come In to make a
neighborly call, however, and how
quickly everything is changed. Both
husband and wife welcome him with
the sweetest of smiles and courtesy.
When the visitor departs, he Is bowed
out with the most charming grace and
In silver tones Invited to call again.
This Is eminently right and proper,
but why should not the same consid
eration prevail among those who ure
bound to each other by ties of family
relationship "our own. whom wo love
best?" Why should not the wife, the
child, the servant, whom you moot ev
ery day In the most Intimate relations
why should they not, I ask, be
vouchsafed some eouttesy as well as
the guest who calls for a brief hour?
"Charity begins at home," we are
told, and I think courtesy should too.
No one, be he man or woman, can
stand weeks and years of continual
fault finding or habitual discourtesy.
You bow to your next door neighbor
when you meet her In the street nnd
give her a kind or cordial word. Why
not be respectful to members of your
own family? Try It. You will find
you will be happier for it. Your home
will become an Ideal one, and every
one will be influenced to good by the
llL-ht which will radiate from it.-Pltts-burg

THE JIMSON WEED.
Probably n I.enry to 1 From Soath
Amerlcu or Aaln.
Once upon a time the name of James
town must have boon very sharply
shortened. Within the memory of
many people now living .lames was
pronounced ".looms;" in fact, we be
lieve that that was the accepted pro
nunciation of our Virginian forefa
thers. But "Jim" must have been the
diminutive of ".looms," ns well a. of
James; at least we judge so because
what is popularly known as "the Jim
son weed" really Is the Jaiticsfohn
weed.
Nor Is there any reason lo suppose
that this contraction was made Jeor
lngly or sneoiingly. More probably It
grew Into use "Jess so," and we find
Intelligent Americans to whom It has
never occurred that there Is any con
nection whatever between Jatnestowu
nnd Jimson. All the same, the au
thorities say that "Jimson" Is "short"
for the name of the place where the
English made their first permanent set
tlement in what Is now the United
States and where the Old Dominion's
first capital was located. .
The jimson weed, however. Is not a
native plant, but probably came to ns
from South America or Asia. It Is a
question how It got to Jamestown, but
we liolleve it Is conceded that It Is not
Indigenous to Virginia. If It was de
liberately nnd designedly Imported, it
must have been because of Its medic
inal value; certainly not for Its odor,
which Is vile; certainly not for Its fiow
ers and leaves, because they do not
compare In beauty with those of scores
of native plants. And, while this weed
is now recognized ns having some me
dicinal value. It may not have had that
reputation "then" with Europeans. The
Chinese, however, use it to some ex
tent medicinally and may have done
so from time Immemorial, that country
being little given to the acceptance of
new Ideas or now remedies. Richmond
