A Family Doctor Book-Save your
Doctor Bills.

That, with the help of good Fam
lily Doctor Book, three fourths of thu
doctor bills may be saved in any fam
lily, we think will be affirmed by the
heads of all families keeping in their
houses such book. Especially the
wife and mother will make the book
her study. She does SO from neces.
sity, AZ when case of sickness oc-
ours she at once searches her book
for the case and cause. finds the REM
edy and treatment, and in nine cases
in ten at least effects cure. She
learns to be prompt in action when
sickness occurs, and everybody
knows that when a disease or attack
of sickness is doctored right at the
onset it yields at'once and, in week,
day, an hour, is cured.
Most of the doctoring by ply
stefan is done in sickness too long
neglected. People will put off call
ing the doctor till tho las4 pinch.
Delays in the applying of remedies
would not so Lappen were there q
reliable doctor book in the family f;
it would be consulted at once for
symptoms and treatment, and in
nearly every case during the family
life the remedies so found and APP
piled would be the same as a first
class doctor would prescribe.
Three-fourths of our country doe,
tors are of the fourth grade class,
and have but one remedy-calomel.
The best doctors use but little calo-
mel, and it may be used if req uired
just as well and safely according to
the rules laid down in doctor books
as if given by the best doctor.
These remarks are offered upon
being shown a new Doctor Book for
the people-by John King, NJ. d.,
a noted Physician of Cincinnati, and
which he has compiled from the best
authorities as well as from his own
great experience. This book he de-
clares, 'sis the browning glory of
long life among the sick, and of in
tense study by one who has been all
his life most devoted student"
The book is large and is to be had
for $500, of agents only-Mr. W. H.
Stewart, at Patch Grove, being the
agent for Grant County, who expects
to call on everybody in the county.
This book will pay.

the bodies has removed the mystery
in which her disappearance was
shrouded, and it has been discovered

Second Marriage of Birds.


1t usually happens, when ihe mate
of any species is killed during the
breeding season, that the female
soon procures another mate. There
are, most likely, always o few un-
mated birds of both sexee, within a
given range, and through these, the
broken links may be restored. Au-
dubon or Wilson, forget which tells
OF a pair of fish hawks, or ospreys,
that built their neat in an ancient
oak. The male was SO Jealous in
the defence Of the young that it ac-
tually attacked with beak and claw
person who attempted to climb in
to its nest, putting his face and eyes
in great jeopardy. Aiming himself
with heavy club, the climber fellec
the gallant bird to the ground ane
killed him. In the course of a few
days the female had procured anoth
er mate. But naturally enough tn
step-father showed none of the spiri
and pluck in defense of the BROOD
that had been displayed by the orr
ginal parent. When danger was
nigh, he was seen afar off, sailing
around in placid unconcern.

Anew years ago Laurence Oliphant,

deep impression on the fashionable

mark Such 3 future as that which
lay before this handsome. clever,
fascinating young iiplomatist, says
ali English paper, any man might
have envied. Suddenly however
Laurence Oliphant was missed from
his place in society-from club, and
House." and opera. Where had he
gone none could tell. Even bis con-
stituents at Stirling were unable to
get any accurate information con-
corning him, and as he made no APP
pearance at the recent election,
another man was chosen in his place.

Parting Word" Ct Horace Rublee.

Horace Rublee, about to leave for
his mission a. American Minister to
Switzerland, announces his temper~
sry retirement from the Journal.
after q connection Herewith az a
proprietor and active editor for sig
teen years, which long tim. he has
boon in continuous editorial com
municstion with the people of Wis
consin. During his services as edi.
tor of tho central State organ of
the republican party, he has welded
greater influence than any other man
in the State; and by his soundness
of views, cautiousness rs . leader and
GOODNESS in exciting times he has
firmly held the public confidence
With constantly increasing power
II is said, however, that his partner,
the venerable Atwood, has been
Rublee's constant adviser, but for
which the latter would have very
often blundered and lost his magnetic
power in the State.
IL. NJ. Page, the very industrious
assistant editor long connected with
the Journal, is to retain his position
and Col. Atwood will as usual con-
tribuate leaders at his leisure and
when moved by the editorial spirit.
During the absence of Rublee,
Major J. o. Culver, already we'll
known to leading news and magazine
readers of eur State, is to fill Rublee's
chair as the active chief editor of the
Journal. Maj. Culver was formerly
assistant Attorney General of Wis
consin. Mr.. Rublee promises to keep
up his connection with the people by
frequent letters, to appear in the
Journal.

An Important Will Case at GAINESVILLE

One of the most important will
cases, for the questions aud the
amount of property involved and the
legal talent engaged in the case. has
been tried in GAINESVILLE at the Circuit
Court, Judge Lyon presiding during
ten days and was decided on the 9th.
The Case i. stated IA follows Tim
othy Jackman. who died about Il
year since, left roperiy valued at
Sl5e000 He willed 10 Mrs Jack
man. who was his second wife, with
h ,hrec children, the whole of the
property excecepiingfiveorsix thons
aud dollars whi.h WAS distributed
between The four children of his firsi
wife, by whom he will was contested
on the ground that undue infiuenc,
was exercised by the step mother in
procuring the will
The case was closely contested by
the following able counsel: Messrs
John r. Bennett. j. B. Cassidy and
Ebbits of Janesville, and Hon. ]. A.
Sleeper, Of Chicago, appeared to eus-
tain the will. Hon. Matt. I'll Carpen-
ter, of Milwaukee, and Messrs. John
Winans, A. Hyatt Smith and L. T.
Patten, of Janesville, appeared for
the contestants of the will. Their
able arguments were listened to with
the greatest interest. 1t is stated
that the speech Of Matt. III. Carpenter
on Thursday, against the will, was
one of unusual force and eloquence
even for him. So great was the en-
thusiasm when he spoke it was nee
essary to have an extra police force
present to keep order. Even then
the audience would applaud. The
jury after being out two hours return
ed verdictin favor of breaking the
will, decision which seemed to give
great satisfaction to the people O
GAINESVILLE, who crowded the cour
room during the trial. rs
The case will probably be appealed
to the Supreme Court.

Editorial Change.

George w. Bliss, Esq, almost twen-
ty.two years the editor and proprie-
tor of the Mineral Point Tribune, has
sold out to w. FL. Bennett, formerly
of the Boscobel appeal, and John B.
Teasdale, who are to reorganize the
office and continue the paper
Noticing this change, Col. Atwood,
of the State Journal, writes as fol-
lows:
''In parting with friend Bliss, the
writer feels like losing an old and
valued friend. He is Of the very few
editors who, in length of service in
Wisconsin, ranks very nearly with
ourown. He commenced the Tribune
a few months subsequent to our be-
coming connected with the old Madi-
son Express, and has been In con-
tinuous service ever since. The
Tribune, in his hands, has ever been
q consistent and reliable paper it
has given good attention to local
matters and to general news, and
done full duty in developing the re-
sources of the southwestern portion
of the State"
The valedictory address of our old
friend Bliss is an affecting reminder
of the busy times and the many moral,
civil and political revolutions which
the mining regions have undergone
since he started the Tribune and since
we took charge of the Herald. Since
the days of our editorial introduction,
railroads, colleges, telegraphs, thresh
ing machines, and many other novel
ties have been introduced into Iowa
aud Grant Counties.
The new editors and proprietors
will lend new vigor t. the Tribune,
and DO up to time in business.

pSThe grain prospect throughout

@The grain prospect throughout
Europe is excellent, and the prospect
for cheap bread was never better.
The great sums paid for Hungarian
wheat during the past two or three
years has given an apparently endu-
ring stimulus to Hungarian agricul,
ture, SO that the deliveries Of wheat
from Hungary may be expected to
continue large. The extension of
railway communication in Russia
must favor the expectation of wheat
from that country, while the contem.
plated abolition of the one shilling
duty now levied on corn imported
into the United Kirgdom must have
the effect of rendering foreign sup
plies generally one shilling per quar-,
ter cheaper. ~ s*s

Bigotry on. Stills.

The question once arose, "Should
intolerancy be tolerated ?" The an
swer WAS, yes, by all means tolerate
intoleracy anu bigotry, and thereby
teach all bigots that they are harm>
less.
Concentrated bigotry has become
an organized institution at last
Last week in Chicago, about sixty
fanatics, chiefly prefxing the word
Reverend to their names, met and
organized what they named the
"NatiOnal Christian Contention" the
chief object Of which is to promul>
gate the doctrine that all secret So
cieties, Masons, Odd Fellows, Good
Templars, and the like are sinful and
of the devil, therefore the duty of
the Lords people is to not only
keep out of them but to put them
down, dooca derry do.oa
The event reminds US of the Con-
vention held in old times somewhere,
such religious fanatics as lacked an
average instalment of brains-there-
fore, were not being overly well sups
ported by tho people. They met and
organized, and then virtually resolv
ed themselves as the only Lord
people on earth The history of
the affair makes it that they
ReSotved. That the earth and tht
fullness there Of belong to the Lord
and his people.
Res0lved. That we are the Lord'r
people. Therefore,
Resolued, That all others are OF
the devil and are consequently not
entitled to anything ct all.
Preceding this Convention Of big
OTIS In Chicago, there was started
somewhere in New York a mammoth
paper called "Ihe Li6e,dI Christian"
ard 1t started out as an advocate OF
Chrtse!dn Union ; that is, the union.
OF all christians upon some sort of
compromise basis--in which every
church entering the union should
yield somsthingand retain something
of its creed. Well. presently the pa
per went Off on raids and TRADES
against the Bsptists and Free Mas
ons, affirming that the great hin>
ORANGES in the way of christian uni
" were these dippers and masons
who must be at once put down. We
believe "Ihe Liberal Christian" has
since died as the papers have not
lately reported its bigoted abuses
and intolerant sayings.
The new organization may survive
Its birth, but nothing of the kind can
mature in America.

ZEAL WITHOUT KrowLEDaE.--The
Chicago Republican in speaking of
the talk and resolutions of the Anti
Secret Society committee held there,
says tive have the best evidence
that they are not Christians, for they
deliberately, persistently and know
ingly misstate facts, bear false wit
ness against their neighbors, and ar
rogAte theright to judge and sentence
to perdition men q thousand fold
better than they ever hoped to be.
They only lack the power, not the
disposition, to prosecute Masons as
Herod did the early Christians"
The other Chicago papers use SIM
liar language and seem to be justified
in 80 doing by the report of the pro-
ceedings. The bigoted talk of the
gentlemen present will do more to
give men q distaste for Christianity
than any Masonic or other secret so
ciety lodges could if they set out o
