What Struck Him! (Boston Herald.) “ How are Americans liked in Bugs land ?" And Mr B. F. Larrabee, of 42 Che*, ter Square, ex-director of the " New York and Boston Despatch Express Company," who has recently returned from a considerable residence in Lon* don, answered, "If they have good recommendations and behave them, selves they are well treated, but they will like the English people, any way, when acquaintance ripens into eonddence," <! How do the English compare with Americans ?" "The finest looking men in the world can be seen on pleasant days of the London season, promenading Piccadilly. The English ladies, however, are neither so neat in appearance nor so graceful of form op movement as Americans, bqt they seem to enjov more robust health." *’ Are English people, longer lived than our people ‘■ I don’t know. I have not fully investigated. But I remember once hearing read a newspaper paragraph entitled, * Why do Englishmen Live Longer than. Americans ?’ That paragraph, by the way, once solved a great mystery for me.” “Ah, indeed, another ‘tribute to power of the Press ?” suggested the reporter, " Yes, if you so please to call it. In 1879, when I was residing in tbe Commonwealth Hotel, in that city, I had occasion to do some business in Washington-street. When I got to the corner of Franklin, I seemed to feel a blow in the breast znd fell to the pavement like a dead man. When I recovered consciousness 1 was taken to my hotel. I first thought perhaps some enemy had struck me, but my physicians assured me that such could' not be the case, and advised strictest quiet. For six long weeks I was unable to lie down. 1 was violently ill, and my physicians said I would probably never walk the streets of Boston again. I did not want to die, but who can expect to live when all doctors say he cannot?’ And Mr Larrabee smiled, sarcastically, and expressed himself very freely concerning the number of common disorder!! which are controlled by remedies which physicians will qqt employ. “ But hfiw qb.»ut that paragraph ?" *' Yes, yes. When I was obliged to sit up in bed day and night for fear of suffocation, and hourly expected death, my nurse begged the privilege of reading that paragraph to me. 1 refused him at first, but ho persisted. It described my condition so exactly, that for the first I began to realise what had prostrated me, I was filled with a strange hope. lat once dismissed my physician and immediately began to use Warner’a Safe Cure. In a few months, I was restored to perfect health, notwithstanding mine was one of the worst possible cases of Bright’s disease of the kidneys, which all my physicians,—and 1 had the best specialists in Boston,—arid was incurable. I te]l you, when a man gets intq tfie desperate condition I was in, he doesn’t forget what rescued him.” “ But were the effects permanent ?” "That was five years ago,” said Mr Larrabee, " and for thirty years I have not been so well as during the past five • years. If I had known what I know now, I would have checked the matter long ago, for it was in my system for years, revealing itself in my blood, by frequent attacks of chills, jaundice, vertigo, typhoid fever, nervousness, wakeful night*, etc., etc, I took over forty bottles before I got up and over one one hundred end fifty before I got well. I have commended that treatment in thousands of cases in general debility, kidney and liver disorder, etc., and never heard ill concerning it. I bank on it.” “ Speaking of paragraphs how do English papers compare with American, in this particular ?” “ Well, they have fewer witty paragraphs, but the smaller papers, like the Pall Mall Gazette, St. James’ Gaz.ette, and Truth, abound in sharp, incisive paragraphs without wit. In general, American papers make the most news, the London papers make the most opinion." Advertisement.
