Count Leonidas Maximoff, a young Russian nobleman, has committed suicide at Milan under very pathetic circumstances. He went to Milan three years ago to study music, and possessing a fine tenor voice, he desired to make a name for himself as an operatic singer. When about to make his first appearance in public, three months ago, he was taken ill with typhoid fever. He recovered after a long and dangerous illnesss but his voice was completely gone, and in a fit of depression he swallowed a large quantity of chloroform. Count Maximoff left a letter saying that neither his wealth nor his [ rank could make life endurable, as he could not follow his chosen vocation. Blood poison resulting from small wounds is becoming more prevalent. Even so slight an injury as the scratch of a pin will sometimes cause blood poisoning. The safe way is to pply Chamberlain’s Pain Balm as soon as the injury has been received. That liniment prevents all danger of blood poisoning, and causes the injury to heal in about one third the time required by the usual treatment. For sale everywhere. — Advt. WOLFE’S SCHNAPPS has stimulating properties possessed by no other spirits.
