Ague Cure.

FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers; indeed
for the whole Glass of Diseases origi-
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the ne
cessitics of the American people than sure and
safe cure for Fever and Agne. Such remedy
we arc now enabled to offer, with perfect GER
tanty that it will eradicate the disease, and with
assurance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the commit
mites where it prevails. Prerrntioa is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
he must run in violent attacks of this baleful
distemper. This "CuIE" expcls the mias.
matte poison Of FEVER AND AGuE from the
system, and prevents the development of the
disease, if taken on the first approach of its pre-
monItory symptoms. 1t is not only the best
remedy ever yet discovered for this class of COM
plants, but also the cheapest. The large guam
tity we supply for Il dollar brings it within the
reach Of every body; and in bilious districts,
where FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every body
should have it, and use it freely, both for cure
and protection. II is hoped this price will place
it within the reach Of all the poor as well as the
rich. "A great superiority of this remedy over
any other ever discovered for the speedy and
certain cure OF mtcrmttcnts is, that it contains
no llulnine or mineral, consequently it produces
no qulnism or other injurious effects whatever
upon the constitution. Those cured by it are
left as healthy as if they had never had the dis
ease.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

This lady who has won higher
place in literature than any woman
of our own, or perhaps any other age,
) died at Florence on the goth day OF
June. She was born in London in the
year 1909 her maiden name being
Elizabeth B. Barrett. She was an &C
complished scholar, not merely in her
own and the modern continental Ian
guages, but also in the classics and in
Hebrew. When she quoted Greek it
was not Gladys Greek without the
accents" Her unsurpassed transla-
ton, or rather imitation, of the Pro-
methcus of Eschylus shows how
thoroughly she entered into the spirit
of that noblest of the Greek TRACE
dies.
Mrs. Browning is we'll known in
our country through her occasional
contributions to the Independent re-
ligious paper, but we are constrained
to acknowledge that her later poems
are by no means her best. Those who
have read her Aurora Leigh" will
not think the compliment of Powell,
who called her Shakcspeare's daugh
ter" at all 'extravagant. But she has
dearer Immortality than any of those
poems above mentioned could give
her, through one or two shorter pieces
which are we'll known to all our
school girls, and have gained place
at the iiresidc readings throughout our
land. Two or three such pieces as
"Cowper's Grave" and " He givcth
his Beloved Sleep" are Of more value
in making their authors name famil-
lar in our mouths as household words"
than longer and more elaborate works
which are read only by the few.
Mrs. Browning was the wife of Rob-
ert Browning, the poet, whose reputa-
tou as writer is not by any means
so widespread as that of his wife, but
whose works fully justify the graceful
compliment which Elizabeth Barrett
paid him in her Lady Geraldine's
Courtship," a poem written before
she had ever seen Mr.. Browning
" Or of Browning pomegrane which Cut deeply
down the centre
shows a heart within blood tnctured with a yeined
humanity"
Mrs. Browning resided during most
Of the later years of her life in Flor
cnce. Her personal appearance was
sketched in a moment to our mental
vision by lady who had seen her
there, as "that pale, gentle Mrs.
Browning" Her death is one which
will be deeply felt throughout the lit
erary world.

Great Advance in Drugs, Chcmic ais
and Groceries.

Private advces from New York to the
leading drug houses in Chicago state that
foreign drugs and chemicals of every de-
scription have advanced to an unprecedent-
ed price, and many large houses are holding
their stock out of the market, in anticipa-
ton of still higher prices being reached.
Foreign groceries have also gone up to al
most fabulous prices and are still advancing.
Cotfees are now higher than they have been
since 1915. Rio is quoted in New York
at 1890. and Laguayra at 1920. The
sa ne articles are selling in the Chicago
market at 22a23c. and it is evident that
they must still 60 higher, as the wholesale
houses cannot replace their present stock at
the prices that they are now supplying their
customers. Teas of all descriptions have
advanced 2a3c. per pound in the New
York market during the present week, and
many of the leading importing houses are
holding their stock out of the market.

The Case of the British Vessel, the
Perthshires

The President, in his message, recon-.
mended an appropriation for an indemnity
to the owners of the British vessel, the
Perthshire. The facts in the case, which
are not very we'll understood by the public,
are thus stated by Mr.. Cox in a late speech
in the House of Representatives. Mr.. Cox
said:
He (Cox) had examined the facts, and be-
leved that the Perthshire was lawfully engaged
in commerce on the high seas when she was
seized and detained by the United States
steamer Massachusetts,. She left Mobile for
Liverpool, with cotton, on the 31st of May.
The blockade began on the Goth of May. but
the ship left within the time allowed by the
Presidents proclamation. She was taken back
two hundred miles to Pensacola, and then re
leased by the Captain OF our squa drOn. The
bill repairs the damage one thousand dollars
The amount is nconsiderable. but the prompt
action of Congress in awarding it is intended
as an earnest to Great Britain that this Govern
ment will be as ready to indemnify for wrong
as to defend a right. Our naval officers were
as clearly in the wrong in Selling the Perth
shire as they were right in overhaulng the
Trent.
