A FATHER’S STORY.
From the Evening Crescent, Appleton, IVis.
A remarkable cure for a disease which
has generally wrecked the lives of children,
and left them ip a condition to which death
itself would bo proforred, has attracted a
great amount of attention among the res-
idents of the west end of Appleton.
The case Is that of little Willard Creech,
son of Richard 1). Creech, a well known
employe of one of the large paper mills in
the Fox River Valley. The lad was attacked
by spinal disease and his parents had given
ap all hope of his ever being well again
when, ns by a miracle, he was healed and 13
now in school as happy as any of bis mates.
Mr. Creech, the father of the hoy. who
resides at 1062 Second Street, Appleton,
Wisconsin, told tho following story:

“Our boy was absolutely helpless. Hii
lower limbs were paralyzed, and when wi
used electricity he could not feel it below
his hips. Finally we let the doctor go ns h«
did not seem to help our son and wo nearly
gave up hope. Fin,illy my mother who
lives in Canada wrote, advising the use oi

and I bought some.
“This was when our boy had been on the
stretcher for an entire year and helpless
for nine months. In six weeks after taking
the pills we noticed signs of vitality in his
legs, and in four months he was able to ga
to school. I

SWANSON RHEUMATIC CURE CO., 167 Dearborn St., Chicago: Dear Sir—Your bot-

lie lias had Neuralgia in his chest, suffering a grout deal of puin, so much so that it affected
H-ts heart, and he could not sleep on account of a smothered feeling. He had been under the
care of tho most eminent physicians, but obtainod no relief until I gave him a do-»o of
• 5 DROPS.'1 lie rested well the very first night, and has ever since, and is gaining daily. 1
myself am 60 years eld. and commenced taking "5 DROPS’’ last April fur Rheumatism, which
has troubled me terribly for 40 years; also for a weak heart, from which I have suffered since
I was 18. Since taking “5 DROPS" the Rheumatism has all disappeared, the stiffness has
gone from my joints and mv heart never misses a beat In all my lile I have never felt so well,
and I owe my health to "5 DROPS." 1 only wish I could sound my bugle of praise loud enough
to bo heard the world over, and could convinoe every sufferer that "5 DROPS" is all you claim
it to bo and more.—Mrs. D. T. Carver, Winslow, Stevenson Co., 111. SepU 0, 1896.
STILL WELL TWO YEARS LATER.
SWANSON RHEUMATIC CUKE CO.,—Two years ago this present month I sent you an
unsolicited testimonial of what "5 DROPS" had done for myself and friend, Mr. Edwards, and
now I want to send you another, saying we have not had a return of Neuralgia or Rheuma-
tism since. I think the cure must be permanent; but If it should return, I keep "5 DROPS" in
tho house and 1 know that would stop it. It Is good for so many things no house should bo
without It. Yours truly, Mrs. D. T. Curver. Sept. 26, 1898.

How the Character May Be Traced by
an Inspection of the Eyebrows—A
Pocket Electric I.amp for Engineers—
Chunking Shape of Marble by Preisure.
Changing Shapo of Marble by Pressure^
It sounds like a fairy story to make
the statement that the shape of mar
ble may be changed by pressure, but
this has been done by scientists with
marked success. The marble is plac-
ed In a wrought iron tube, the ends
are closed with steel plugs that exact-
ly fit the tube, then pressure is ap-
plied which would be sufficient to re-
duce the marble to powder were it not
for the protection of the tubing. The
result of this is a considerable altera-
tion in the shape of the marble. The
tubes spread or stretch and curves of
perfect regularity and beauty are
formed. The tubing must be cut off
after the shape is secured, as on ac-
count of the pressure it becomes so
firmly attached to the marble that it
is impossible to remove it by any oth-
er means. The experimentors say
that the strength of the marble is not
at all diminished by this process.
While these experiments are interest-
ing as tests of the possibilities of such
substances as marble and stone, the
question arises whether the expense
attending them is not sufficient to bar
their usefulness.
Eyebrows Will Tell Character.
The eyebrows will tell you a thing
or two about character, says a new
science.
An arched eyebrow is expressive of
great sensibility. Scant growth of the
eyebrows denotes lack of vitality;
heavy,thick eyebrows indicate a strong
constitution and great physical endur-
ance.
Long, drooping eyebrows, lying wide
apart, indicate an amiable disposition.
Where the eyebrows are lighter in
color than the hair the indications are
lack of vitality and great sensitive-
ness.
Faintly defined eyebrows placed high
above the nose are signs of indolence
and weakness. Very black eyebrows
accompany a passionate temperament.
Very light eyebrows rarely are seen on
strongly intellectual faces.
IN DoLEtJT.
Red eyebrows denote great fervor
and ambition; brown, a medium be-
tween the red and black.
Engineer’s Pocket l ump.
A safety pocket light for the use of
engineers and deck officers of steam-
ships recently put on the market is
shown in the accompanying illustra-
tion. It can be instantaneously
lighted in any place on shipboard, on
deck in a gale or in an oil tank, with-
out fear of its going out or causing an
explosion. As it is of portable size
and weighs little more than one pound,
it can be comfortably carried in the
pocket. It is guaranteed by the mak-
ers to give approximately 6,000 to 8,000
“lights” before the battery requires r*-
The Boar-Glass Clock.
A novelty in a clock is announced
which has no special merit except as a
curiosity. The object of new inventions
in the clock line is to avoid frequent
winding, while at the same time main-
taining the regularity that cjnstitutes
the chief value of a clock. The device
is somewhat on the hour-glass order.
It registers the time accurately by the
running of tho mercury from one end
of the glass to the other. The clock
is built in two sections, and an indica-
tor marks the precise time consumed
by the mercury in passing from the
upper to the lower. This clock must
be turned when the upper section ia
emptied, which is really about as much
work as winding the clock. The nov-
elty, however, may appeal to many
tastes.
Always l?se<l In War Flays.
The audience listening breathlessly
to the hoofbeats of a galloping steed,
on whose exertions the fate of sev< ral
people depends, would experience a
painful shock if it knew that a grin-
ning propertyman was wearily beating
out the noise. This man holds in hia
hands a pair of real horseshoes, mount-
ed on wooden handles, and with these
he vigorously pounds a piece of gran-
ite suspended before him by four ropes.
Man, stone and horseshoes are confin-
ed in a small sentry box, the door of
which is gradually closed, to suggest
that the noise is dying away in the dis-
tance.
The Coming Battleship.
The achievement of the Oregon dur-
ing the recent war has demonstrated
the fact that upon our battleships and
cruisers we must rely for our offensive
and defensive conduct on the high
seas. The Oregon and Brooklyn have
proven themselves ideal defenders. The
little converted yacht Gloucester made
short work of the Furor and Pluton,
•which ranked among the very best of
the destroyers. There was a great hue
and cry about torpedo boats, destroy-
ers and rams when the war began and
everybody was on the qui vive to know
just exactly what was likely to happen
when this flotilla got into line of battle.
But for some reason or other they came
to grief quite early in the action, and
the smaller craft steamed about among
them with as little fear for them as
they had respect for the power that
owned them. That they came to grief
and struck a heavy blow at the future
of such craft will be tho verdict of his-
tory.
Disposing: of Ashes.
Formerly the ashes on steamships
were gathered into great can3, hoisted
to the decks with more or less difficul-
ty and thrown overboard. Among the
new devices for labor-saving in this
direction is a shute into which a very
strong air current is forced. The
ashes are placed in this shute as they
accumulate and aro almost instantly
blown through this conductor into the
sea. The amount of labor saved by
this means can scarcely be appreciated
by those who have not watched the
wearisome dragging of the enormous
quantity of refuse from the furnaces in
steamships and lxrge plants of thi9
deaorlption.
