CUT FLOW ERs.

The first thing to be considered in ar
ranging cut flowers is vase.
II it Is scarlet, blue. or many-colored, Il
must necessarily conflict with some hue III
your bouquet. Choose rather pure white,
green, or transparent glass, which allows
the delicate stems to be seen. Brown Swiss
wood, silver, bronze, or yellow straw
conflict with nothing. The vase must be
subordinate TO what it holds.
A bowl for roses. Tall spreading vases
for clatliolus, fern. white lilies, and the
ike. Cups for violets and tiny wood flow
ers. A fower-lover will, in time, collect
shapes and sizes 10 suit each group.
Colors should be blended together with
neutral iints. of which there are abun-
dance-whifes, grays. puppies, tender
greens--and which harmonic the pinks,
crimsons. and brilliant reds into soft uni

Certain flowers assert well only IN fam

these are balsans, hollyhocks, and sweet
peas, whose tender liquid hues are as
those Of drifting sunset clouds. Others

ranging large basket or vase, it is well
10 mentally divide it into small groups,
making each group perfectly harmonious
with itself, and blending the whole with
green and delicate eolors. And, above all,
avoid stiffness. Let bright ten,lril or
spray of vine spring forth here and
there, and wander over and around the
vase at its will.
The water should be warm for winter
vase-cool, but not iced, for summer
one. A little salt or a bit of charcoal
should be added in hot weather. to obviate
decay, and the vase filed anew
each morning. With these precautions
your flowers, if set beside an open win

ADDRESS
NERVOUS And DEBILITATED

Whose suflerings have been protracted from hidden
causes, and whose cases require prompt treatment
to render existence desirable. If you are suffering
have suffered from involuntary discharges, what
effect does it produce upon your general health DO
you feel weak debilitated easily tired? Does little
extra exertion produce palpitation of the heart !?
Does your liver orurinary organs, or your kidneys,
frequently get out of order? Is Your urine some
times thick milky focky, oris it ropy settling
Or does thick scumrise to the top? Or is a sedi
ment at the bottom after it has stood awhile? Do
you have spells of short breathing or dyspepsia
Are your bowels constlpated? Do you have spells
your memory impaired? Is your mind constant
ly dwelling this subject? DO you feel dull, list
eSa, noping tired Of company. Of life Do you
wish To be left alone to get away from everybody !?
Does any little thing make You start or jump? Is
your lecp broken restless? Is the lustre Of
your eye "a brilliant? The bloom on Your cheek
bright? DO you enjoy yourself in society as
well? DO you pursue your business with the same
energy? DO you feel as much confidence in your
self? Are your spirits duh and tagging, given to
liver or dyspepsia Have you restless nights
Your back weak your knees weak, and have but
little appetite, and you attribute this dyspepsia
or liver complaint?
Now, reader, self abuse, venereal diseases badly
cured and sexual excuses, are are all capable of
producing weakness of the generative organs.
The organs of generation, when in perfect health
make the man. Did you ever think that those bold,
defiant, energetic persevering, successful business
men are always those whose generativeorgans in
perfect health? You never hear such men complain
of being melancholy, Of nervousness, of palpita
ton of the heart
How many men, from the effects of excuses
have bought about that state of weakness in Sexual
Organs that has reduced the general system so
much as to induce almost every other disease
idiocy unacy, paralysis, spinal affections, suicide
| and almost every other form of disease which hui
mainly is heir to- and the real cause of the trouble
scarcely ever suspected, and have used remedies
Tor all but the right one.
| Diseases of these organs require the use OF Di
uretic. HELMBOLD'S FLUID EXTRACT BUCHU
is the great Diuretc, and is certain cure for dis
eases of the Bladder, Kidneys, Gravel Dropsy,
Organic Weakness, Female Complaints, General
Debility and all diseases OF the Sexual Organs,
| whether existing in Male or. Female, from whatever
originating, and no matter of how long stand

| limo treatment is submitted to, Consumption or
| Insanity may ensue. Our flesh and blood are sup
ported from these sources and the health and hap.
piness, and that of posterty, depends upon prompt
use of a reliable remedy.

Mr.. Colfax is at his home in South

Mr.. Colfax arrived here last Friday
morning, at five o'clock, in the special car
of the Pennsylvania Central road, ten
dered him by Col. Scott. He gained in
strength during the thirty-six hours
journey from v, Washington, and though
still weak, home, family and quiet are, as
all will be glad to know, Fastening his
convalescence. Every evening since his
return, Mrs. Colfax has driven him around
the environs of the city, and he has ia
ken much enjoyment in this open air re-
creation
The newspaper correspondents at Wash
ington reported so many causes for Mr.
Colfax's illness, that we take occasion to
correct such as were in error. His ply
sicians attribute his attack to over mental
work without relaxation, aggravated at
the time by his general ill-health and the
vitiated atmosphere of the long executive
sessions of the Senate with closed doors
and windows. The public knows how
conscientious Mr.. Colfax has alwas been
in the discharge ofhis official duties; how
diligently he has labored on the side of
right and justice during all the years of
his manhood; how heartily he has partic-
irated in oil tae contests Of his party /.

The AuGUR.-Thc Weekly Chicago
Republican with reference to the present
new departure of the Democratic party
says:
The leading Democratic organ of the
West, the Cincinnati Enquirer, has been
engaged in close observation of the
shadows Of coming events, and puts its
conclusions in the form of brief parable
which reads thus: The Wing party in
1859 made their platform as near ike the
Democratic as possible. They died that
year. That was their last appear-
ance in politics." The Enquirer modestIv
omits the moral" but il is AN inference
that horse might draw" The Demo-
cratic party in 1912 will make their
platform an embodiment of Republican
doctrine, and that will be their last appear
snce in politics. And the country will
manage TO bear the result with equanuoi

THE TOWN IN DETAIL.

There arc eight streets running north
and south, and ten running east and west.
Michigan street is one hundred feet wide
and one mile long within the corporate
limits, runs north and south, and is the
principal business street in town. La
porte street runs east and west, is three
quarters of a mile in length, and eighty
feet wide, and is the second business street
in the place. Center street, next west of
Michigan, and there is not church il.
town that is not on this street. Property
is not as valuable here as on Laporte and
Michigan, but would much prefer to live
here. Beneath the branches of craggy
old black oak, near an old church house,
on Center street, our own humble domi-
ell is located, and, though not hand
some place. it is, nevertheless, a lovely
place, and as quiet as an old cemetery. 1t
may also be remarked that the court house
is on the west side Of Center street, which,
when completed, will be the most highly
ornamented and magnificent. as well as
the most expensive. building in town.
