To some extent this may be called a mere speck. Emperor Wilhelm is hemming troubled with imperial nightmares, dust now it's the fear of being pois­ oned that has taken hold upon him, and the next thing hell get an oil stove and,do hie own cooking. The Prinoe of Wales is said to have engaged two floors of a hotel at Niag< am Falk for May. Other resorts noshave the floor to announce equal attractions— the queen would prove « good roomer, for example. and also upon many prominent professional people in bidney, What they said is simply remarkable. Dr, J .G . Geyer said: “ When I was first called to see Miss Shorr I saw at once that her case; was a critical one and I called in consultation several o f our best physicians.. We were unable to cure her. The pleueal sack filled with Water and forced the lungs up out o f place. Then terrible inflamation set in and we battled with it long and hard, but were unable to help her. Nobody thought she would ever recover but she did, and I have recently examined her lungs and found them to be m a healthy condition.” Mr. 0 . F . T lickox , a prominent merchant o f Sidney, located at the corner o f Ohio and Poplar streets,stat­ ed that he knew the , ‘ Shorr” family well, and that during the time Miss Bertha was so sick, his wife was a frequent caller at their home. The poor girl was in a most pitiable con­ dition, and his wife at one time pre­ vailed upon him to go with her and cake a look at the sufferer. “ I will never forget the eight” he.said, "as long as I live. lean best.describe her appearance by saying that she remind­ ed me o f the pictures we used to see during the war, o f our poor. , half- stnrverd soldiers, with that deathly look about the face, and with their long, bony fingers. It is simply wonderful that she Over walked again. I well remember the ride she took about the Court House Square. W e all thought sb we watched her, that it was her last ride on this earth, but she rallied and came out all right ,and is as well as ever.” Rev. A. H. Minneraan, pastor o f Western Lurihern Church, said he knew Miss Bertha’s family very well and that they attended his church. H e well remembers the terrible suf­ fering that Miss Bertha endured for many months. Her trouble was con­ sumption, and two o f the best phys­ icians o f the town told him she was in- cureable. He considered her re­ covery little short o f a miracle, but she has fully recovered,and is now in blooming health. Dr.H .E.Beebe said: "Y e s , I treated Miss Shorr for a loug time, and her. complete recovery is one o f the most re­ markable things I have ever seen in my long experience as a physician. She was positively nothing but skin uud' bones, a mere skeleton.and we were compelled.to carryher in sheets. Her lungs werecompletely filled,and I was positivethat she would die. But ahe has recovered,as she has toldyou, and I consider it simply marvelous. Mr. G.Steinlv, brother-in-law of Miss Shorr, said that his nstei^ife-law had been confined to her tiedfor more than eighteen months. Recovery was the last thing thought of, and we only sought to make her lasthoursaspleas­ ant as possible. I have never known When Mr. Charles A . Dana was in Boston last week he had a few spare hours before the Buttler dinner, and, lieing a connoisseur, in pottery, took a careful look at the M o r e collection o f Japanese porcelains aud other cera­ mics in the A rt museum. Congressman Hooker o f Mississippi is one o f many members who seem to regard a straight White tie as a sort o f a badge o f dignity to be worn iu daylight and with any costume, instead o f being confined, as by cor­ rect usage, to . evening dress. But when a statesman represents nine whole counties one o f them as fam­ ous as Copiah, he ought surely to be allowed to wear what he pleases. AM ABOII8KD COMMUNITY. The Cenunotion Caused by a Msst Remarkable Incident, Every W ard ©f W h ich In . F *nad to be T rn c, (Toledo Blade.) A few days ago since we published one o f the most wonderful statements that has ever appeared in print. It Was made by Miss Bertha Shorr, a young lady o f Sidney O ., who has passed through an expcience probably never before known in history. I t was so unusual, ao remarkable, that a complete investigation o f its fruth or falsity became an absolute necessity. That investigation has been made, and the surprising truths are given herewith: A representative made a pemmal call upon some o f the relatives o f the young lady, A N D R E W J A C K S O N SUCCESSOR TO DUNLAP & CO. -DEALER IN A .

Physicians did not do it, our moat careful attentiondid not do it, but Dr.Ackers Engliri Consumption cured her, and she is nowthepictureof health. It seems too wonderful to believe, sad I should not be surprised at anyone's doubting it but it is every word true, and I am willing to confirm it at any time.” Dr. A . Reddish said that he was in consultation with Dra.Beebe and Geyer, and that she had consumption beyond the shadow o f a doubt. There were cavities in her lungs and abesees would form and break. He did not see how she could possibly live, but she fully recovered hud is strong and well. • ‘The case baffled us all,, and I have many times referred th her cure when in consultation with other physicians, A daughter o f the late Senator Rob­ ertson said that herself and several girl friends were doing missionary work aiul learned o f Miss Shorr’s sick * ness, They went at once to her Jiome and found the family completely worn out from watching and care. They at once sought to assist, •never once thinking she could recover, They watched over her, took her delicacies, and when the change for the better took place she recoverd rapidly. In conclusion she said: " I think it is one o f the most wonderful cures ever re­ corded.” Mr, H . C. Ayers, the popular drug­ gist o f Sidney, sa id :"I sold the first bottle o f the remedy to the parents o f Miss Shorr, and it is simply wonder­ ful what it did for her. Dr. Ackers English Remedy for Consumption is wonderfully populaf iu this town and deservedly so. NO such recovery from almost certain death has ever come to my notice. I t is almost past belief.” The. above are most wonderful state­ ments but they prove the marvelous nature o f this case beyond pucstion. They also showhow important such an experience may be in the case o f others, perhaps your own, you Who may lie traveling the same dangerous road, but who can yet be saved i f consider and ask in time.
