In an Interview with a Reporter She Re

the Real Cause o* tho Miracle.
(From l*ic Argus, Alpena, Mich.)
Wo havo long known Mrs. Jag. M. Tjd.l,
of Long Itapids, Alpena Co., Mich. Bho has
boon a sad cripple. Many of hor friends
know tho story of hor recovory; for tho bone*
flt of tho3o who do not wo publish it to-day.
Eight yoars ago sho was taken with ner
vous prostration, and in a few months with
muscular and inflammatory rheumatism. It
aftoctod hor hourt, then hor hea I. Hor foet
bocamo so swollen sho could wear nothing
on thorn, hor hand) woro drawn all out of
ahapo. He; oyoj wore swollen shut moro
than half tho tinn, hor knoo joint) terribly
swollen and for elgutoen months sho had to
bo hold up to bo drosso I. Ono limb became
ontiroly helpless, and 1110 skin was so dry
and crackod that it would blood. During
these oight years slio hal boon treated by a
scoro of physicians, and has also spent much
time at Anu Arbor undor best medical advico.
AH said hor trouble was brought on by hard
work and that medicine would not cure, and
that rast was tho only thing which would
oaso hor. After going to livo with hor daugh
ter sho bocamo entirely helpless and could
uot oven raise her arms to cover herself al
night. Tho interesting part of tho story fol
lows in hor own words:
"I was urged to try Dr. Williams' Fink
Fills for Palo Pooplo and at last did so. iu
threo days aftor I commenced taking rink
Fills I ooulcl sit up ana dress myself, and
a f ter using them six wooks I wont homo and
commenced working. I continued taking
tho pills, until now I begin to forgot tny
crutches, and can go up and down stops
without aid. lam truly a living wonder,
walking out of doors without assistance.
"Now, if I can say anything to induce
those who have suffered as I have, to try
Fink Fills, I shall gladly do so. If othci
like sufferers will try Fink Pills according to
directions, they will havo reason to thank
God for oreating men who art) able to con
quer that terrible disoaso, rheumatism. 1
have in my own neighborhood recommended
Fink Fills for the aftor effects of la grippe,
and weak women with impuro blood, and
with good results."
Mrs. Todd is very strong in hor faith In tho
curative powers of Fink Fills, and pays they
have brought a poor, helpless cripple bank to
do hor own milkng, churning, washing, sew
ing, knitting and in fact about all of hei
household duties, thanks to Dr. Williams'
Fink Fills.

A Portland man, who has just ro
turned from a hunting trip in the foi
ests of Northern Maine, vouches to the
Portland, Mo., Argus for the entire
truth of tho following story, as ho had
it direct fromjthe sheriff.
A man who lives in Mount Katahdin
reign went into the office of a justice of
the peace a few days since, and in
quired about the penalty for hunting
deer with dogs, and very particularly
as to whether one-half tho tine did not
go to the informer.
Tho justice consulted the game laws,
and assured him that it did.
"Very Well," said the man, I want
to complain of myself and settle."
The justice could not back out, and
so gave the transgressor "a clean bill of
health," upon payment of one-half of
the penalty.
It seems that the man got wind of
the fact that a game warden had got
the "drop" on him on his deer poach
ings with his dogs, and was only wait
ing an opportunity to arrest him.
Hence his shrewd bit of diulomacv.

WOLF SOLANfiE.
fTICK in hand, onr
bags slung over our
shoulders, wo threo
had been walking
all the afternoon
in the beautiful
forest of Tronsays,
which covers half
tho Saint-Arnand
district and half
the Nevors district.
The end of our
tramp for tho day
l( was tho village of
Ureay, uoar the
a bank of the Cher,
ffiljj a little place hud
m, died up in an arm
of that valley which
divides the forest in two. There we
dined with an old friend of mine, a
doctor, whoso small connection was
scattered over flvo or six neighboring
parishes. Dinner ovor, we seated our
selves in tho open, in front of the
house, and meditatively sinokod our
cherry wood pipes.
The shadows wero gathering upon
tho tall treetopsall around us with the
Blownoss of a Juno evening; hero and
there a cloud of swallows was to bo
seen; from a little stoeplo, just visi
blo abovo tho roofs of the houses, rang
out tho 9 o'clock angelus, in slow,
measured tones, an interval of silence
between each stroke; and in tho dis
tance could bo hoard tho barking of
the farm dogs us they called to and
answered each other.
A youngish woman, dressed in a
skirt of red material, with a white
bodice, came out of a house close by
and went toward the river; she was
carrying a baby in long clothes on her
left arm, and holding with lior right
hand tho chubby fist of a little boy,
who in turn was grasping tho hand of
a younger brother. When sho roncliod
the bank of tho River Cher tho young
mother sat down on a big stone, while
tho two boys quickly undressed and
tumbled into tho water, where they
threw water over one another with
shouts of laughter.
"There's a picture which would have
a tromemlous success iu the Salon,"
said one of my companions, who was
an artist. "See how tho light falls
upon her! And what a splendid poso !
How well the red skin shows up on
the dark background 1"
"Are you looking at Wolf-Solango,
young gentlemen?" asked a voice be
hind us.
It was our host, who had boon de
tained insido by the arrival of a patient,
and who now rejoined us. Of course,
we asked him who Wolf-Solango was,
and how sho came by such a strange
name, and, in reply, ho told us tho
following story :
"Wolf-Solange, whose proper name
is Solange Grillet, maiden name Tour
nier, was tho prettiest girl all around
Tronsays ten years ago. Hard work
in tho fields and material cares have
loft their mark upon her, but sho is
still pretty for a woman of thirty, as
you can see.
"At the time the adventuro hap
pened whioh earned for her tho nick
name of Wolf-Solango she was still
single. Her parouts wero tenants of
the small farm of liciu-du-Bois, about
eight or niuo milos from here, near
Lurcey-Lovy. Although poor, sho
had no lack of suitors, even among
the well-to-do young men of tho neigh
borhood ; but the only ono sho en
couraged was a certaiu Laurent Gril
let, to whom sho had taken a fancy
when she was a mero girl and they
used to tend sheep together.
"Laurent Grillet was a foundling ;
his fortune consisted of his strong arm
only. Solauge's parents, not seeing
tho advisability of marrying their
daughter t(f a man just as poor as they
were, especially when tho had sevoral
much bettor chances, forbade Solange
to meet her lover; but tho paronts'in
junction was unheeded, and as thoy
lived in tho same village and tho for
est was close by, tho opportunities of
meeting wero numerous aud easy.
When tho Tourniers discovered that
tho lovers still saw each othor. and
perceived that neither soit words nor
blows had any effect upon Solange,
they came to a weighty decision; they
would send her out to service at Ur
aay, on the model farm of M. Roger
Duflos, our Deputy.
"Perhaps you think that this stop
put a stop to the lovers' mooting? If
so, you aro quito mistaken. Tho only
difference was that they had to seo
each othor at night. As soon as it was
quito dark the young peoplo slipped
away from the respective farms on
which they worked, and, taking a
short cut to save timo and to avoid
the high road, met in tho forest un
known to any one.
"It was in 1879. Tho summer aud
autumn passed in this way, then onmo
tho winter—and a terrible winter it
was! The Gher was full of pieces of
floating ice, and finally it frozo right
over; tho high troos of Tronsays bont
under tho weight of the snow; the for
est was deserted, tho roads having be
come almost impassable; and we saw
what hod not been seen for many a
year—wolves!
"Yes, young gentlemen, wolves.
They prowled about tho ontlying
forms of Lurcey-Lovy and Ursay,
alarming tho good people who lived
on those farms, and were even seen in
tho streets of Saint-Bonnot-le-Desert,
an ont-of-tho-way littlo place close to
tho forest. Wolf hunts were organ
ized to kill them, and fifty francs
were paid for a wolf's hoad. I myself
saw three—two full grown ones and a
young ouo—on tho opposito bank of
tho Cher one morning whon I was on
my way to Saint-Amand in my cart.
"But neither the hard winter nor
the wolves provonted Laurent and So
lango from meoting at night in tho
forest; in spite of all dangers they con
tinued their nightly expedition. Every
evening Laurent loft Lurcoy-Levy, his
gun under his arm, and walked through
tho snow-covered forest with a blithe,
fearless step; Solango, on her side,
slippod away from Ursay at 9 o'clock ;
and they met at a glade called 'Tho
Walk,'about a milo and a half from
hero.
"On Christmas ovening they met as
usual, but just as Laurent reached tho
glade ho slipped upon tho frozen
ground, and foli in such an awkward
way as to broak his right log and
sprain his right wrist. Solango tried
to lift him up, but was unable to do
so; sho could only drag him to a young
elm tree and set him up with his baok
against the trunk.
" '3top there, my poor Laurent,'
sho said, wrapping her cloak around
him, 'and I will run to tho doctor at
Ursay; ho will como and fotoh you in
his cart.'
"Sho started off on her way to tho
village, and had turned the bond in
tho road, when sho hoard tho report
of a gun and u cry for help. Sho ran
back to her lover, whom sho found
ghastly pa'o with pain and fear, one
liana convulsively clutching his gun,
which was lying on tho ground.
" 'What is tho matter, Laurent door?'
sho asked, anxiously. ' Was it you who
lir.ed ?'
" 'Zee,'ho replied. 'Soon after you
had loft mo I noticed a strong smoll,
and when I looked up I saw au animal
with glaring rod eyes, and as big as a
groat dog. I believe it was a wolf.'
"'Did you fire at it?'
"'No; X couldn't lift tho gun, yon
know, on acoouut of my arm. I
pulled the trigger as it rested on tho
ground to frighten tho brute, and you
soo he is gone.'
'"Will it como back?' asked So
lango after a moment's reflection.
'"I nm suro it will 1' answered tho
young mau. 'You'll have to stop
here with me, Solange; if you don't
tho beast will eat me.'
"'Very well, dear,'said Solango,
'l'll stop with you. Let mo have
your gun.'
"Sho took up the weapon, shook
out tho discharged cartridge and put
in a fresh one, and they both waited
anxiouslv.
"Two hour 3, perhaps more, passod.
'The moon, still invisible, had rison
above the horizon, for tho sky reflect
ed a confused light, which becamo
brightor each minute. Laurent was
fovorisk---ho shivered and groaned;
Solango benumbed with eold, standing
up with her back against tho tree, be
gan to get drowsy.
"All at onco a kind of whine or
howl, liko that of a dog chained up at
night, mado her jump. In the setni
darkness sho saw two fiery eyes; it
was tho wolf.
"Laurent tried to get up aud tako
tho gun, but the pain was too great,
and ho fell back again into a sitting
position with a groan.
"'Make ready, Solnngo,' ho cried;
'aim straight between tho eyea, and
don't (Ire too soon.'
"Solange raised the weapon to her
shoulder, took aim and fired; but the
kick of tho gun mndo her miss the
nnitnal. Nevertheless, seared by tho
report, it ilod along tho road, and was
quickly out of Bight. A littlo while
afterward thoy heard it howling in
tho distance, and it was answered by
others.
Tho moon now emerged from be
hind tho trees and lighted up tho
wholo of tho forest, and a terrifying
sight met tho eyes of tho lovers.
Within gunshot wero fivo wolves,
seated on thoir hindquarters, lilco
dogs, across the path, wh le another,
bolder than its fellows, was slowly
making its way toward Laurent and
Solange.
'"Listen to what X tell you, So
lange,' said Laurent. "Tako" aim at
the one which is coming toward us;
if yoiicau minago to knock him ovor,
tho others will eat him, aud wo shall
have a rest while thoy are doing it.'
"Tho wolf continued to advance
slowly; thoy could see its red eyeballs,
its bones Bhowing through its dull,
ragged-looking ooat---so thin was it
through hunger—and its open mouth
with tho tongue hanging out.
" 'Rest the butt of the gun well in
tho hollow of you shoulder,'said Lau
rent. 'Now lot him have it!'
"Bang! Tho wolf gavo a jump in
tho air and fell dead without a sound;
tho others rushed away as hard as
thoy could and disappoarod in the
brushwood.
" 'Bun to tho wolf, quick, Solange I'
exclaimed her lover. 'Drag it as far
up tho road as you can; thero is no
danger, tho othors won't como back
yet.'
"She. ran to the dead wolf but ho
called her back when tho had gone a
few steps.
" 'We ought to cut off tho hoad,
you know, so as to get tho reward.'
" 'Have you got a kuifa?' she askod.
" 'Yes, hero in my belt.'
"It was a hunting-knife, with a
short handle and a wido blado. She
took it and, running to whero tho
animal lay, sho cut off its head and
dragged tho carcass by one foot over
tho slippory ground as far away as
sho could, and returned to Laurent
with tho head.
"What Laurent had forseon took
plaoo. Tho wolves frightened at first
by tho death of thoir companion,
enmo back—all five of thom—when
they smelt blood. By tho light of tho
moon tho two young people saw the
group of wolves struggling, fighting
and rolling over one another in thoir
efforts to get a full share of tho prey,
of whioh they devoured every scrap.
"Laurent began to suffer terrible
from his broken leg. Solaugo, whoso
nerves woro giving way under the
strain, was vainly endeavoring to
strugglo against fatiguo and drowsi
ness ; twice tho gun nearly fell from
her hands.
"Having finished their meal, the
wolves bognn to come near to tho
young people. The girl fired once,
twioe, at random in their midst, but
her frozen fingers trembled, and tho
bullets went wide of the mark. At
the roport of tho gun tho brutos scur
ried away along the road for some
short distance, where they stopped for
a fow miuutos, an l then came back.
"Lauront and Solnngo know that it
was all over with thorn then, and that
they must perish. Tho girl let the
gun fall to tho gronnd, but not for an
instant did she think of abandoning
her wounded lover and saving horself
by flight. She lay down upon the
frozen ground by his Gido and drow
ono end of her cloak, which sho had
wrapped him in, over her own be
numbod limbs, and putting her arms
round him, she laid her head against
his cheek; thus, outwardly frozen by
the cold and inwardly burning with
fever, they both waited for death.
"Strange fancies took possession of
their disordered minds as they lay
half unconscious; it was once again
summer time, and they were wander
ing through the forest decked with
summer verdure, enjoying the lovely
June evening; then tho trees aud
hedges became suddenly bare, aud
tho forest covered with snow, upon
which stood out clearly a mass of
moving forms with blazing eyos and
gaping months—a mass which grow
larger every minuto, and drew nearer
to them to devour them.
"But, fortunately, neither Laurent
nor Solango were destined to die in
that awful maunor. I'rovidenco-—I
believo in I'rovidenco, my boys—
ordained 011 that very morning I was
returning through the forest in my
cart from Saint-Bonnet-le-Desort,
whero I had boon to attend a very
urgent case. I was driving, while my
servant, holding a loaded gun ready
in his hand, was on tho lookout for
wolves. No doubt the bells on my
horse frightened the brutos, for we
did not 6ee a single one. When wo
reached tho tree, at tho foot of which
tho lovers were lying, my horse shied,
and so drew my attention to them; I
jumped out, and, aided by my man,
lifted tho poor tilings, unconscious
and stiff with cold, into the cart,
covered them with everything wo had
in tho way of rugs, and mndo my way
as quickly as possiblo to Ursay. I
did not forgot to take tho wolf's head
with me.
"It was about 7 o'elook, and tho
day was breaking when wo reached the
village. Wo were met by a large
party, consisting of tho men employed
on the farm of M. Roger Duflos, and
abont half the people of tho village,
who, uneasy at tho disappearance of
Solnuge, wero going in searoh of her.
And it was in that largo kitchon whero
yon havo just dined that Luuront and
Solange, restored to consciousness,
and seated in front of a iteming boeoh
wood fire, told us what they had passod
through (luring that dreadful night."
"Well, dpetor, I suppose they got
marriod after that?" we asked.
"Of course," replied the doctor.
"Tho will of Providence is at tiinos so
clearly shown in tho courao of evonts
that it docs not roquire any gift of
second sight to perceive it. After the
adventure of tho wolves, the parents
of Solange consented to her marriage
with Laurent Grillet. Tho wedding
took place in tho spring, and the fifty
franos reward which thoy reeoivod for
tho wolds head paid for the bride's
dress."
Wo all remained silent. It was now
quite dark, tho twinkling stars were
refloated in the dcop, blue water of the
Cher, and the thick mas 3 cf trees stood
out like mountains upon tho horizon.
Wo saw Wolf-Solango dress her two
boys and come toward us 011 he way
back to her home, the child asleep in
her arms and tho others walking by
her side as before. As sho passed up
sho smiled at tho doctor, who smiled
in return, and wished her a cheery
"Good evening, Solange!"—Prom tho

The Effects of Cold on Life.
Somo very interesting experiments
liavo lately been carried out by M.
Pictot, tho well-known French
chemist, with tho object of trying the
offeot of extreme cold on life. A dog
placed in a copper roooiver kopt at ti
temperature of sixty to seventy de
grees C. below tho frcozing point of
water bcoamo warmer by half a de
gree in the course of tho first ten
minutes, and after an hour and a half
was found to bo only ouo degree
colder than it had been at first. A
littlo Inter, howover, naturo scorns to
have given up the struggle, for it
suddenly died. Insects rcsistod a
temperaturo of twenty-eight degrees
0. below zero, but not thirty-fivo de
grees. Myrinpods lived down to fifty
degrees, and snails to 130 degrees be
low zero. Tho eggs of birds lost
their vitality at two to threo degrcos
below zero, and those of ants at zero.
Infusoria diod at niuety dogreos, but
at 213 degrees below zero baoteria
still romnined virulent. —London Ex

Peculiar Snow.
When people at Elva, Ky., arose the
other morning they found tho ground
covered with two inches of whito snow,
and this covered with a yellow-tinted
stuff that would turn water inky

tho phenomenon, and an aualysis has

Do You Wlsfi
the Finest Bread
and Cake?
It is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder is
the purest and strongest of all the baking powders.
The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet
est, most delicious food. The strongest baking pow
der makes the lightest food.
That baking powder which is both purest and
strongest makes the most digestible and wholesome
food.
Why should not every housekeeper avail herself
of the baking powder which will give her the best
food with the least trouble ?
Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift
or prize, or at a lower price than the Royal,
as they invariably contain alum, lime or sul
phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome.
Certain protection from alum baking powders can
be had by declining to accept any substitute for the
Royal, which is absolutely pure.

there's complete re

Although by many
believed to be incur
evidence of hundreds
of living witnesses to

sumption is a curable
disease. Not every
(T* v* - - case, but a large per
cent age of cases , and
we believe, fully OH
"*** - * per cent, are cured
by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
even after the disease lias progressed so
far as to induce repeated bleedings from
the lungs, severe lingering cough with
copious expectoration (including tubercu
lar matter), great loss of flesh and extreme
emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by "Golden Med
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of "Golden Medical Discovery,"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos
pliites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrji and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 160
pages which will be mailed to you, on re
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.
You can then write those cured and learn
their expcricijpc. AddressWoßi.n's DISPEN
