HOMEOPATHY is the only true system OF
medicine based upon the laws OF nature. sew.
cnty!ave ycars OF experience have proven that
one.half OF those dying at an carly age can DC
saved.
Homeopathy cures all durable diseases per.
mancntly, which have resisted the skill Of the
best practitioners Of any Of the old medical sys.
tenn for years.
Homeopathy aims to eradicate disease entire
ly; to cure sure and easy, without bleeding,
6listcring, cauterizing or dragging; to prolong
life and lessen the number Of sick days.
Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1868-09-18

II will thus be seen that Of one hundred pa.
tients treated by Homeopathic physicians eight
will die, while if the same number arc treated
by Allopathic physicians, tll!rty.four will die:
and OF the myrlads who die under old Schooi
treatment the world over, Homeopathic treat

good to go to church. Good things
are often very stupid. Tommy
Slabsides is good boy, and he likes
to read Sunday school books, and
don't know how to swim, or to row,
and is afraid of game of base ball,
and never played hooky in his life.
1 am good boy sometimes; but I
wish it was good to be bad. Then I
could go birds nesting, and sit up
late at night, and not hear sermons.
Sermons are mostly preached in
church. Yet pn sometimes gives me
a sermon at home. it is always after I
have been bad. So I suppose people
who go to church are always very
bad, and go there to get punished.
It's always very hot in church. I
never get so idgety anywhere else as
L do at church. I'm never fidgety
when go out playing, or when I 90

L was q real good boy, it wouldn't be
so. Sometimes fall asleep in church.
[ used to think this was very bad,
but last Sunday I saw both pa and

round the plate, all fast asleep, too.
Mr.. Longface snored the loudest.

blow the organ, too, but it's easier

There was once a boy who was

to school with me. He said he'd had
enough of church to last him all his

TO THE PEOPLE OF TIE S01TJ1

THE WEEKLY GLEANER-Deyoted to
the rehabilitation of the South in it's former
prosperity-is offered to subscribers at the
low rate of $3.50 for six months.
The annals of the American Republic
show no political campaign comparable in
the magnitude of its issues and the mo-
righteousness of its results to that for the
Presidency, now pending. Indeed, the
very life OF free government is on trial,
and it will be sad commentary on the
capacity of the people for Tie exercise of
that high trust if they, the jurors who are
to try the issue, pronounce verdict of
sclf-condcmnation. If the South has anv
nope 1t IL III the success of the Democratic
party in the coming Presidential election:
ana every citizen is vitality interested in
the progress of the battle, and cannot
afford to be without a sound and reliable
newspaper.
AS an organ, not only of sound Demo-
cratic principles, but as vehicle of ge-
neral news, the CLEANER is confidently
commended to Southern support. A largo
eight-page paper, of forty-eight columns,
filed with the contributions of able cor
respondents, the daily wealth of tele-
graphic communication and readable edi-
torials. Especially will it be valuable as
an organ to dsabuse the Northern mind
OF the falsehoods in relation to Southern
thought and actions, with which it is the
industrious vocation Of certain parties to
poison the springs of Northern feeling on
Southern subjects. In this view of the
matter, no more valuable aid to the true
reconstruction OF the country and restora-
ton OF just sentiment at the North toward
the South can be rendered than by sub
scribing to the WEEKLY CLEANER and
sending it to acquaintances and friends in
the Northern States.
We ask the aid of such of our political
comrades as shall see this prospectus, in
the distribution of the paper; especially
during the progress of the impending
campaign.
The WEEKLY CLEANER is published
every Wednesday morning, and mailed to
single subscribers at $500 per anum; Six
Months, $3.50; Three Months, 75c.; Single
Copies, 10c. Sample copies will be sent
on receipt of address. Money for sub

Cupid on Horseback.


Death plays some fantastic tricks
at times, but, compared with the
other universal conqueror, Love, he
is tanned indeed. On Thursday
afternoon, in the crowded marts of
this city, under the clear sunlight,
Cupid vaulted into the saddle of the
Pale Horse, gave him the rein, and
with the spirit of the wind flew to
Loves .Elysium.
Less than year ago, there came
from Virginia to reside in st. Joseph,
highly respectable widow, whom
the misfortunes of war had compelled
to emigrate. With her came her two
daughters, one twelve and the other
nearly eighteen years of age Annie,
the eldest, was blessed with more
than the usual amount of beauty and
intelligence, and had received an
education suitable to the aff1uence
and social standing of her parents
ere war made its inroads. Since
April last, the widow has resided on
Third street, and her pleasant family
circle has often been enlarged and
enlivened by the presence of Lewis
Dix, q young man of twenty-four
who married her niece, with whom,
and the three chubby little ones that
have blessed their uion, he has been
residing, some fifty miles from ST.
Joseph. AS Dix had formerly lived
in Virginia, and had always been on
terms of intimacy with the family,
his visits were looked forward to
with pleasure by all, and not sus-
picion ever crossed the mind of the
mother that he was other than he
seemed-a true friend.
Thus matters stood at the begin
ming of the present week, when Dix
arrived in the city in q wagon, drawn
by span of gray horses, ostensibly
for the purpose of purchasing some
articles for farm use. He called at
the widows as usual, and as usual
was Hospitality entertained. On
Thursday Annie carried to her
washerwoman o number of articles.
and about 4 o'clock in the afternoon
of the same day, left home with the
excuse that she was going after them.
5, and Z o'clock came, but not so
Annie. Then it was that the horrible
suspicion flashed upon the mother
that her daughter had been made q
victim to the wiles of the man whom
they all had esteemed. Inquiry soon
confirmed her worst fears. 1t was
ascertained that Dix had procured
saddles, deserted his wagon, and.
mounting Annie on one horse and
taking the other himself, had hur-
riedly left the city by the Savannah
road, IN company with his victim.
Up to present writing nothing has
been heard of the fugitives.
The mother is almost distracted
over this terrible affair, yet she firmly
declares that the wayward daughter
shall never again cross her threshold.
The poor child's infatuation will be
OF short duration. She will soon
learn by sad experience that he who
has been false to one woman is false
to all. If Annie does not knock for
admlttance under the parental roof in
less than month, and Dix does not
humbly trudge back to the citv and
hitch to his deserted wagon before
the first snow, notwithsta ndinp the
fact that he had 81, 200 in his pocket
just received from his father in Vir.
