much she is to credit to her husbands

Young men should ponder these
questions, and let maidens beware if
no satisfactory answer can sbs gwen,
for a farmers wife has a life of too
much, toil,to make it desirable, if,
with all labor, she is still considered
beggar.

Mrs. De Geer, Of Canada, recently
delivered q lecture in Chicago, IN
defence Of Masonry, and, on referring
to tho Rev. Blanchard, who is making
q raid on Masonry, she said :
Gle had already Disguised every
one by endoavoring to run DR.. Pat
ton Of the Advance. She compared
him to one John Smith, who, having
beon expelled from the two bodies
Of Methodists, had joined the Pres
byterians. John Smith was noted
for his rows. He had not been long
in this body when he raised q row.
A meeting of tho elders and minis
tors was held to deliberate on what
to do with this turbulent person. A
wary old Scotchman sought to solve
the problem, and suggested q prayer.
The meeting assented, he prayed :
"Oh, God, take John Smith to hell"
"Hold on" said tho minister, terribly
shocked, "what kind Of . prayer do
you call that?" "It's o good prayer"
said Sandy, ian excellent prayer, for
if John Smith goes to heaven he'll
raise Q row there, and if he goes to
holl he'll break that place up in six
weeks

THE GREAT vERNAI. SPECIFIC
No class Of invalids are more sensitive
to changes Of season and variations OF
temperature Than dyspeptios, and persons
Of bilious habit. Tender lungs are not
more easily affected by these vicissitudes
than feeble stOmachs. II there is o ton
dency in the system to indigestion, bill
liousness, or bowel complaints, the vaiia-
BILE weather Of early spring is almost sure
TO develope one or d br Of these ailments:
Intermittent fevers are also more preva-
lent In the spring months than at any
other season except autumn. In view of
these facts, this seems to be q proper time
to invite especial attention to Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, a medicine, which for
long series of years has proved superior
to all others as y remedy for the above
named disorders, andas protection against
the miasma which frequently produces,
and always aggravates them. It was
formerly the practice To give violent ca
thartics as "spring medicines" nor is the
custom yet entirely obsolete. Nothing,
however, can be more ill-judged and I'M
philosophical. The chilling moisture with
which the air is loaded at the breaking up
Of winter, presses heavily upon the vital
forces Of the body, and reinforcement, not
depletion, is what 1t requires. The Bitters
is a genial and excellent tonic, moderate
Alternative, and just enough Of an aperient
to regulate, without convulsing, the bow
els. 1t is, therefore, specific peculiarly
adapted to the present season.

Tho time has now arrived for o
general attack along the entire line
Of tho Ottumwa, lama City and
Minnesota Railway project. The
enemy arc exchanging picket shots
and making every effort to drive our
outposts and now that we arc so
we'll entrenchod and our batteries in
such good positions, we must open a
broadside along tho entire limo and
victory is sure to perch upon our
banners, thus securing one of the
worry best thoroughfares in our young
and growing State. At Ottumwa
VIC make sure and direct connection
with tho North Missouri Railroad,
for st. Louis, also with the Dos
Moipos Valley Railroad, which gives
US either route we may wish; and
the Burlington and Missouri River
Railroad affords US another outlet to
Chicago via the Chicago, Burlington

Chief Justice Bellows of Now
Hampshire, in opening court at Now
port rocently, spoke worry decidedly
against the means used to swindle
money out OF persons who oft-timos
cannot afford to give it, at church
fairs and other gatherings, such as
post-otiices, lotteries, grab bags,
guess.cakes, etc., with tho intent to
raise funds for disseminating the
gospel. Tho Judge said that allthese
are recognized in law as indictablo
offenses, and the proper officers failed
to do their duty wero they suffered
to pass unnoticed. If This is good
law in Now Hampshire, why hot also
