C., says: “I can speak in the highest praise of Eipans Tabutes. I have been for years troubled with nightmare (an erroneous expression, but one that thousands are familiar with,, and have suffered a thousand deaths, being caused directly by a torpid liver, thence stagnation of the blood. A short while after retiring I would experfence the most terrible sensation that human + ean foll heir to, such as having heavy weights upon you, seeing horrible animals, burglars, ete, being unable to get out of their reach. I have tried everything on the market that I eould think would be of any benefit, but ‘ever struck the right remedy until I tried Ripaps Tabules, and since that time nightmare with me fs a thing of the past. Tam fully convinced that Ripans Tabules are a. good thing for suffering humanity, and I feel that I could not exist without them. And I will further say for the benefit of others (knowing there arg thousands suffering tn the same manner), profit by my exp-rionce and try them; you will never regret it.” and Ripans ‘Tabuies are sold by druggists, or by mail, 3f the peteo (0 cente a \ box) is sent to The Ripans Chemical Cony 10 Spruce st., New aS t CCR CNSR Craig & Harding, & spree 13th & F Sts. **sModern” Bed Room Suites. | Out with the ola! tion with it.

Other Cities Where the Thermometer Was High—No More Excessive Hot Weather, In these record-breaking days it is inter- esting to note that Old Sol is not behind all true sporting spiri He broke the record for this city yesterday for the sec- ond ten days of September. The tempera- ture then arose to 96.2 degrees, which was the highest temperature ever recorded by the weather bureau in the twenty-five years of its existence, The weather bureau notes the highest temperature of tach of its stations for each ten days of each month, so that im- portant branch of the government hi: a Uist of temperatures, both maximum and minimum, which are regarded with much awe and veneration by the officials of the bureau. When a record is broken the old record is taken down and the new achieye- ment is posted in its stead. Highest Since 1871. Not since 1871 has the record for a maxi- mum temperature been broken for the sec- ond ten days of September, and in that year, on the 12th of the month, the same date of the present break of the record, the thermometer registered 94. But Washing- ton was not alone in the unpleasantness of a high temperature. The warm wave spread over almost the entire country, and broke records in ten cities, while in four other localities the thermometer reached the highest mark it had ever attained. At At- lantic City the temperature was 92 degrees, 6 degrees higl than ever before, and in Baltimore it 8 04, or 4 degrees in excess of previous records. A list of cities where the record of previous years was broken, the temperature yesterday and the increase ever previous records being given, follows: Block Islard, R. I, 78-2; New York, 92—3; Harrisburg, Pa., 92-4; Philadelphia, 94—3; San Antonio, Tex., ®8—2; Coiumbus, Ohio, S411; Parkersburg. W. Ve., 94-2. Cold Wave Coming. But there is a cold wave coming, and it is not likely that any more excessive heat will be experienced this fall. The cold Wave started in the lake regions, and is now east-bound. At -Buffalo this morning the ‘temperature fell eighteen degrees; at Columbus, Ohio, ten degrees, and at Pitts- burg, Pa., ten degrees. If this cool wave reaches Washington in due time it wiil be bere this evening, and it is thought that a drcp of twelve degrees in the temperature will _be experier ced, While it is not expected that further ex- cessively hot weather will visit Washing- ten, the only basis for this belief is in the record of past years. The weather bureau always assumes that the prebabilities are that the records of temperature of past years will be repeated. Now and then they are not repeated, as was the case yester- day, so that the high temperature experi- enced was unexpected and a surprise to the bureau. The weather bureau is never quite so sure of predicting warm waves as it is in pre- dicting cold waves. The reason Zor this is that the officials of the bureau know just where a cold wave is apt to come from, while a warm wave will spring up out of the ground, as it were, in almost any part of the country. The cold waves almost in- variably enter the United States from the nerthwest border, and by calculating their rate of progress the time of their visit to any particular point can be ascertained with considerable certainty. The Last Hot Wave. The hot wave which has just gone over the ccuntry made its appearance in the Mississippi valley and lake region. There was no way for the weather bureau to as- certain that a sultry temperature was about to spring up there. The causes that lead to the creation of such hot waves have not yet been discovered, and the first thing the bureau usually knows about them is when the thermometer begins to rise at the ape of their origin. There is a in the atmosphere at such places, aa the héat from the sun appears to be retained until a very hot temperature is seached. Up to that time the freak of the weather comes upon the bureau as a surprise, but when the hot wave begins to move the country is warned of its coming and has time to prepare for what is in store for it, A hot wave may spring up anywhere at all, It is as likely .o make its entrance on the earth in the District of Columbia as any- where else, and frequently does so. It is expected that the thermometer will drop this evening to a little above eighty degrees, perhaps eighty-four, and tomor- row the probabilities are that it will range about in the lowsr eighties. ———__ .
