wOne day, little girl, about five
years old, heard a preacher praying most
Justify, till the roof rang with the strength
of his supplications. Turning to her
mother, and reckoning the maternal ear
to a speaking distance, she whispered i;
Mother, don't you think if he lived
nearer to God, he wouldn't have to talk
SO loud?'

EsutternlfIk,

Persons who have not been in the
habit of drinking buttermilk consider it
disagreeable, because it is slightly acid,
in consequence of the presence OF lac
tic acid. There is not much nourlsh-
ment in buttermilk, but the Tactic acid
assists the digestion of any food taken
with it. The Welsh peasants almost
live upon oat cake and buttermilk. In
valids suffering from indigestion will do
well to drink buttermilk at meal times.

The Coming Election.
The Democratic State Convention has been
held and presented the strongest kind of a ticket
for the support of the Democracy of Maryland
Mt the next election. Soon Conventions will
be held to nominate a candidate for Chief Judge
for this Circuit and candidates for the county Of
fees TO be filled this Fall. Ifthese Conventions
do their work as well as did the State Conven-
ten no Democrat can have any reason TO COM
plain. Indeed, no Democrat has any right to
complain after nominations have been fairly
made. Every man who respects party obliga-
tion-and party obligation is as binding as any
other-is fairly and honorably bound by the
action of nominating conventions, as all have
an equal opportunity to be heard in such con-
ventions. Party men, who fail to participate
IN the primary meetings, are bound by the
ciearest law of politics and morals to abide by
the will of majority of their party friends as
expressed in the convention. How can a party
man abdicate his duty or delegate power to
others by implication, and justly say that he is
not bound by their action z He cannot do it,
The obligation to support the nominees of regu-
larry constituted CONSCIENTIOUS rests not only ups
on each and every delegate TO such conventions,
but extends through these delegates to every
voter, active or passive in the party. The OBJ
legation may be ignored, we admit-men are
free to act in reference TO these matters as they
please. They may even form coalitions with
the enemy to beat the nominees of the party
they claim to belong to, or work 10 put Rad-
calls on top-there is no gainsaying their right
or rather power to do even this-what is gain

Debility and Emaciation.
Both result from the lack of ability to convert
the food into nutriment. How necessary then,
for those suffering from these alarming symp-
toms to Immediately resort to remedy that
will strengthen the stomach and digestive
organs For, as soon as this desirable object
has been accomplished the health improves,
and the patient resumes his usual personal ap-
pearance. Hostetter's Stomach Biiters have
attained worldwide popularity in such cases,
and have been proven the best and safest means
Of removing constipation, toning the stomach,
giving energy to the liver, and relieving every
symptom of nervousness and depression of
spirits. Its cheering and beneficial effects are
highly spoken of by thousands who owe TO
il their restoration to health. No restorative
in the annals of midicine has attained the same
popularity in the short space of time it has
been before the public, or has won the high
endorsements accorded to this excellent tonic.
Many other preparations, purportng to be
correctiyes and restoratives have been intro
duced, and have persisted one by one, while
the popularity of Hostettcr's Stomach Biiters
continues to increase, and is now recognized
as standard household medicine. The sue
cess which attends the use of the Bitters evinces
at once its virtues in all cases of debility and
disease of the stomach. Certificates, almost
without number, have been published, attett-
| ing it's trz'y miraculous power in 1oy,ng

this time it seems idle to do more than call at
