A St. Petersburg correspondent says an invalid who has reached the.remarkable age of 140 years is now lying in the hospital of Tomsk. He still remembers Catherine 11., and talks of having buried his wife 100 years ago and his son 90' years back. His record was nearly approached by a Georgian, who died a. few days ago in Tiflis at the age of 128.

The southerly buster at its height, With wind and rain and sleet, Is bound to give us every night, Wet clothes and cold damp feet. Bad coughs and colds must then prevail, We'll try to make them felver, And take a dose of never failfSome Woods' Great Peppermint Cure. —(Advt.)
