Cataract iEEaid to be due to the gradual disposition of oxalate of lime in the sub- stance of the crystalline lens, at. first in small spots opstreaks, sometimes it one part and sometimes in another. The de- posit gradually increases until it penetrates the whole of the lens, causing blindness. The remedy, then, is to remove the lens, and after its removal the patient needs a. substitute in the form of highly magnifying spectacles. now [he obstrucllon lo the Sight.

Pierce 3 clean round hole near the middle of the card and hold the card up to the light close to the eye, looking preferablyin the direction of a. piece of blue sky. With the card near to the eye the patient will not see the small hole pierced by the needle, but he’ will see a camper- atively large faintly-illuminated field with his cataract projected upon it. He is, in fact, observing the shadow cast by his cataract on the retina. at the back of his eye. Witha. small puncture in the card the shadow so thrown is comparatively sharp. But with a normal eye an evenly illuminated field or clean disc will be seen. The patient may thus map down his own cataract, and settle for himself whether it is extending and whether he will have an ofieratinn or not. Five Lucky llabokenltes. There is not a happier quintet in the prosperous city of Hoboken,it is safe to say, than the five lucky men upon whom the fickle goddess bestowed the first prize of $75,000 in the April drawing of the lion- duras National Lottery Co. (Louisiana. State Lottery 00.), now at. Puerbo Cortez, Hon- duras, C. A. It was last fall when Mr. Oscar Hanger,a newsdealer, who resides at No. 704 Garden street, Hoboken, induced four friends to join him in purchasing a. lottery ticket. Each of the men paid one dollar, and es the drawing took place monthly, the men con- tinued purchasing a $5 ticket, until in the April drawing the lucky number 72,12], won the $75,000 prize, the number held by thelucky Hobokenibes. A Spanish Bull Fighter's Terrible Fate-’ Gore“ to Death By a Marl null ‘A terrible affair at Madrid on Saturday is described by the Standard’s correspond- ent. The bull-ring performances were in full swing; one bull killed four‘ horses, and showed much fierceness when the bander~ illeros fixed their darts on his neck, Six- teen thousand spectators anxiously watched the celebrated matador, Manual Gracia. Espartero, a fine handsome man of 28 years, as he approached the hull with his usual daring, and was knocked down. Recover- ing his feet, he attacked the bull again close to a dead horse, which prevented Espnrtero from taking proper precautions as he plunged his Toledo blade up to the hilt in the shoulder of the animal, which, though dying, caught, tossed. and gored the bullvfighter. The unfortunate Espartero was carefully raised, bleeding profusely from a. ghostly wound in the stomach. His hands were clenched, his features rigid, and his groans were dreadful. 0n arriving at the infirmary attached to the bull-ring Esportero was speechless, and the doctor pronounced his wound mortal. Priests promptly administered extreme unction in the presence of many gorgeously attired bull fighters, all kneeling bareheaded and deeply moved. Before he expired Espartero murmured the name of his sweetheart, whom he was to have married shortly, and who lives in Seville with the aged mother of the deceased bull-fighter. He and the bull died at the same instant. After the death of Espnrtero, notwithstanding the intense excitement among the public, the corrida was continued. The bulls showed much fight, killed 15 horses, and knocked down and severely bruised two other bull- flghters. The incident has occasioned little less excitement than the death of a Cabinet Minister, for Espartero was well-knowu throughout the whole of Spain as a. toreador. Espartero was only 14 when he showed a decided vocation for the calling, in which he became a banderillero at 17, and a mat,- ador at 20, he had made a large fortune, and contemplated retiring next year. The news of the happy occurrence spread rapidly, and shortly after our reporter visit- ed Lhe lucky winners, who are mostly Ger- mans, to get an inberviewin respect to their plains. - Oscar Hanger was first seen. He lives in amodesb little house, No. 704 Garden street, Hoboken. “ Well,” Mr. Hanger said, who is a. man of about, forty-eight years of age, “ I guess I can make good use of the money. I have made a. good living as newsdealer for the lust. twenty-five years and I do not intend to give up my business altogether. The money 1 shall invest in real estate.

FROM SUFFERING TO HEALTH. The Experience of a Well-Known Bruce Country Farmer. Of all the ills that fleshis heir to perhaps noue causes the sufferer keener anguish, and few are more persistent and more diffi- cult to eradicate from the system than that, nervous disease known as sciatica' The victim of an aggravated form of this malady sufl‘ers beyond the power of words to ex- press and it, is with the utmost reluctance that, the disorder yields to any course of treatment intended for its cure. Hearing that a rather remarkable cure had been efiected in the case of Mr. William Baptist, no Tells lhc Story of llm [usean That “mum!

News reporter called upon that gentleman to “certain facts. Mr. Baptist is an intelligent and well-to-do farmer. He is well known in the section in which he resides and is looked upon as a man of unimpeachable integrity. He is in the prime of life, and his present appearance does not indicate that he had at one time been a. great sufl‘erer. He received the News representative with the utmost cor- diality, and cheerfully told the story of his restoration to health, remarking that he felt it a. duty to do so in order that others afflicted as he had been might find relief. Up to the fall of 1892 he had been a heslthy men, but at thst time while har- vesting the turnip crop during a, spell of wet, cold and disagreeable weather, he was attacked by seintica. Only those who have passed through a similar experience can tell what he suffered. He says it was something terrible. The pain was almost unendureble and would atltimes cause the perspiration to ooze from every pore. Sleep forsook his eyelids. His days were days of anguish and night brought no relief. Reputable physi- cians were consulted without any appreci- able benefit. Remedies of various kinds were resorted to and his _condition was worse than before. The limb afl‘ected began to decrease in size, the flesh appeared to be parting from the bone, and the leg assumed a withered aspect. Its power of sensation grew iess and less. It appeared as a deed thing and as it grew more and more help- less it is little wonder that the hope of recovery Began to fade away. All through the long winter he continued to sufier, and towards spring was prevailed upon to try DR Williams’ Pink Pills. He commenced using them and soon felt that they were doing him good and hope began to revive. By the time he had taken three boxes the pain was eased and the diseased limb began to assume a natural condition. He continu- ed the use of the remedy umil he had taken twelve boxes. In course of time 'he was able to resume work and \o-day feels that he is completely cured. He has since recom- mended Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills to ochers with good results.

From The Teeswate 1' News A Novel Banking Institution. A novelty in banks and banking is the ‘V. C. Lindsey 8L Sons Banking Company of St. Louis, with a capital stock of $100, at $1 a share. The officers at present are : Mr. W. C. Lindsey, Sn, President; Mr Louis H. Lindsey, Vice-President, aged 6% years; Mr. Robert T. Lindsey, cashier aged Syears; Richard W. Lindsey, aged 5 years; Everett L. Ames, aged 4 years, and W. C. Lindsey, Jr., aged 1 year. It, was decided to capitalize the bank at. $100 and issue 100 shares at $1 each, and to pay something each week on the shares, any amount, from 1 cent up being received and the proper credit. given. As fast as these shares are paid up certificates are issued, signed _by _Lhe President and cashier. The bank was originated to induce the children to save money, and has become so popular that after fifty-one shares were re- served for the family and forty-nine dis- posed of, there were calls for forty more shares. At the next meeting the Board will consider the advisability of increasing the capital stock to $500, when they will probably invest in real estate. At present the bank is making loans in small amounts at the rate of 5 per cent. a month, and now holds $47 of paper at the above rate. They have set their mark at $100 per share, and confidently expect to make each share worth that amount by the time the cashier attains his majority. Among the stock- holders are residents of Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Mississippi.
