Trust What Time has Sanctioned

The maxim that the voice Of the people is
the voice of the divinity, may in some cases,
be open to doubt, but the testimony of honest
and enlightened witnesses extending through
series of years. and all to the same purport,
is worthy of credence, admits of no question.
| Upon such testimony the reputation of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters as an antidote and
cure for many ailments is based. During
the twenty years that it has been before the
world, innumerable preparations intended TO
compete with it, have gone up ike rockets,
and come down the extinguished sticks.
Meanwhile the progress Of that incompara-
BILE tonic has been swift and steady-always
upward and onward like the eagles flight
Its introduction produced resolution in
therapeutics. and it proved to be one of those
salntary revolutions that cannot 90 back
wards. To-day Hostetter's Bitters is one of
the most popular remedies in christenGom.
and commands larger sale than any other
medicinal preparation. domestic or imported,
on this side of The Atlantic. As cure for
dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous affec-
tons, general debility, and as a preventive of
epidemic fevers, il takes precedence of every
other remedy. This fact should teach the
ambitious country dealers who endeavor to
foist their local abortiens on the public in its
stead how futile their small attempts to
caiole the community must necessarily be.

bic, the clause now interpolated into the pol
icies will not release them from their liahili-
tv; and it they are not liable, the insertion
OF that, or any other clause is totally unne-
cessary. The reason given by the insurance
companies Tor the adoption of the obnoxious
clause Is, that their stockholders are nnwil-
ling to pay the assessment needful TO repair
capital an1 continue business, if they are to
be responsible in their private fortunes for
the consequences of q recurrence of the Chi.
cago calamity, and the stockholders have
been advised that thev will be freed from fur

OF the clause in question. As has already
been stated, this conclusion is by no means
well established. If il should eventually be
made to appear that the individual liability
clause is in force, these persons who are now
paying their money and remaining in the
business are being greatly wronged: while.
on the other hand If il was clearly understood
that there was no such thing as individual
liability many more persons would he found
willing to embark in the business of insur.
ance, and thus afford great facilities to the
public. What we would suggest therefore,
is that test case should be Immediately pre-
pared, and submitted to the Supreme Court.
and the vexed question should be at once and
forever set at rest. This can be done in a
very few days, as the Court would no doubt,
in view of the Importance of the subject. give
it immediate consideration. Until some such
plan is adopted, the public cannot tell what
course to pursue in their insurance business,
and the foreign companies collect all the pre-
miums, to the exclusion of the local institu-
tions.-iS. f. Chronicle.
