"Look on this picture, and then on that"
Here you behold the infrm step,
The pallid cheek, wasting form,
Untasted food, and social atmosphere
Poisoned with tales Of aches, pains,
Sleeploss nights, and mental despondency'
There, laughing health, sparkling eyes,
Elastic steps, craving appetite, forgotten
cares,
Genial thought and ambitious resolves
Show the contrast and mark the picture.

LAWYERS should never marry, for they

MENTAL DEPRESSION. Mental depres.
sion is disease Of the nervous system, and,
of all the ills flesh is heir to, it is the one
that excites the least sympathy. 1t is q
subject Of frequent jests, and is called by
various derisive terms but although it is
often laughed at, it is not easy to laugh the
patient out Of the belief that his ills arc all
real, for it is real disorder the general
features Of which are constant fear, anxiety
and gloom. The external senses, as well as
the mental faculties, often manifest symp-
toms of arrangement. Noise, as of falling
water, and ringing,in the ears are complained
of, while black specks and fiery sparks fit
before the vision. Admonitions like these
should not be disregarded, as they may, if
neglected, terminate in insanity. The scat
of the disease is in the brain and nervous
system, and to control the malady it is ne.
cessary to use a powerful tonic and Alternative,
which will correct and tone those organs
without inAamiug the brain. This is the
secret of the success of HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS in cases Of this
kind, forwhich it is the safest as well as the
best of restoratives.
In fact it is the only pure and reliable
tonic stimulant known. Many nostrums,
purporting to be tenics, are pulled up from
time to time in the newspapers, but the
sufferer had better let them alone. HOS
TErTER'S STOMACH BITTERS has
proven itself, by many years Of rial, to be
in every respect what it is represented to be.

.,o-,,,a ec,mour.s speech.

Much has been said by the Republican
press about uoratio SeYmour's speech
Mach more will be said about it by them.
They claim il T. be directly antagonisiic 70
George IL. Psndls,on's Plan for alternating

further claim that upon his plan Mr.. Sey-
N sur hores to outbid Mr.. Pendleton for the

Cd TO be q candidate. But ~ to his hnan-
cial ideas, compared with those Of MI.
Psndlstoa, il must require very sharp eyes
70 detsc, any great difference in the main
points.
Mr.. Psndleton's policy seeks to relieve
the people from q part Of the great burden
Of interes. paying; 90 does Mr.. Scymour's.
To do this, Mr.. Psndieton advocates the
gradual redemption Of bonds bearing inter-
eat in grccntacks which bear no interest,
vet not so fas: as to swell the vol
umc Of currency 10 . disastrous extent ]
Or 20 use his own words, with
out iuhating the currency one dollar"
This is all that Mr.. Seymour claims.-thas
aud nothing more. lie dsnounces initiation,
and would curtail interest; Mr.. Psudlcto on
maintains exactly the same grounds. Some
difference there may be in their plans Of
reaching the result; but both have the same
grand object in view, and the practical diff
ference in tho road thereto is hardly worth
eonsidsra,ion-bo'h being safs and feasible
NJ. Seymour would abolish The na,ionAl
hanks. This would wipe out bank cussen
q, and some other currency would have 4
b substituted. 0rssnbacks. for instance
This step would cut OF the immense inter
est paid through that channel; so, ahsr all
