HE SUPREME QUEsTIoN.-Health is
the most Important of earthly bless
ings, and therefore the nervous anxiety
of the sick to ascertain the relative
merits of the various medicines in use
is not surprising. With the last two
years many thousands of invalids have
abandoned the preparations of the
pharmacopolist for the remedy intro
duced by DR.. Walker, of California,
under thessomewhat eccentric name of
VINEGAR BITTERs. That this new Veg
etable medicine is winning golden
opinions of all sorts of people, is be-
yond a doubt. The accounts we hear
Of it's extraordinary effects in cases of
chronic dyspepsia, rheumatism, liver
complaints, malariOus fevers, nervous
prostratlons and many other distress
ing diseases, certainly justify the pop.
ularity which it has everywhere ac-
quired.
DR.. Walker claims for his specific a
remedial power over all disorders that
do not involve an irreparable destruc-
ton of bone and fibre, and results so
far appear to have justified the claim.
In this age of wonders we are not dis
posed to deny the possibility of any
phenomena not directly at variance
with the laws of nature, and as it; is
held by many Psychologists that all
proceed from the same gene
ric cause, we see no reason for the in
credulity with which some people re-
gard the idea of Universal Medicine.
Dr.. Walkers preparation seems des-
tined 70 be universally approved. Com.

Foreign Notes.

IT is said that the prettiest tomb in
Pere-la-Chaise is that of Helen Adrian
off, Russian ballet dancer.
The Princess MathiIde. who was ex-
tremely partial to Theophile Gautier,
went to see him laid out after death,
and wept abundantly.
NEARLY all the hotels in Paris that
bore German names have been replac-
ed by patriotic sign boards, where the
national celebrities of France are duly
honored.
M. THEIRS has made an earnest re.
quest to an association which proposed
to do him the honor to erect statue
of himself III the Place Vendome. He
begs them to wait till the indemnity is
paid and the disasters of the war re-
paired.
PUNCH furnishes the following bit of
genteel paternal satire:
A FRENCH society has decided that it
prolongs the lives and increases the
happiness of dogs to make them work.
The tomb of Heloise and Abelard,
in Pere la-Chaise Cemetery, Paris, has
been renewed as a place of pilgrimage
since the performance of the opera of
that name.
AT a meeting of the Medical Society
of Victoria, held in June last, the fol
lowing collection, taken from the stom-
ach of lunatic, upon whom a post
mortem examination had been made,
was exhibited: Twenty-Five pebbles, six
teen pieces of glass, twelve nails, one
screw, two bones, button, five bits OF
tin, peach stone, six fragments of a
pipe-stem, and whole cutty-pipe. The
cutty-pipe was found fixed in the ileo.
caecai valve.
AN American tourist has been dis
tinguishing himself in Ireland. Mr..
Fitzhenry, of Boston, runs away with
Miss Agnes Barry, only daughter of
Newton Barry, late member of Parlia-
ment, of the county of Wexford, Ire
land. Miss Barry is a prize, as she
has $500, 1000, inherited from one of
those dear old uncles of whom weread
in novels. The father, of course, re-
fused his consent but the lovers ran
away to Killarney and were made one.
Papa, of course, relented, forgiving the
happy pair, and all now goes merry as
a marriage bell.

Yesterday morning a large woolly

Suburban New York.

Quite a spirited contest is going on
at the present moment in the thriving
towns of West Farms, Yonkers, Morris
ania and West Chester, as to whether
they shall be consolidated under one
government, or continue their individ-
ual existence. Morrisania includes no
less than Is separate villages, West
Farms has 10, and West Chester and
Yonkers as many more. All have sep
arate municipal government, with a
separate Indebtedness from $500 to a
81, 100000. One party favors the con-
solidation of towns, and. an independ-
ent government, while another pro
poses to annex the whole to New York
at once, and possess the privileges of
that city-the right to gas, water, po-
lice and municipal goveTnment-with-
out separate expense. The subject
will come before the New York Legis-
1ature this winter.

GABLE SCREW WIRE Doors AND SHOES.

"A word of explanation may not be out of

Lady ShaftnShurY'S Death.

By the death of Lady Shaftesbury
many noble families have been put III
mourning. With her London lost one
of those distinguished female elements
which once made Lord Palmerston's
houses the center of the most intellect
ual society. All attempts, and they
are many, to form such another center
have hitherto failed. The loss
caused by Lord Palmerston's death in
social life has not yet been repaired.

MILLIONS of palrs of shoes timed

MILLIONS of palrs of shoes tipped
with metal, are sold every year. For children's
shoes they are absolutely Indispensable I'M
less one can afford the waste of buying two
pairs, when only one would be needed and few
can safely submit to such a constant leak.
With most people it is the little economies OF
the household that supply its members with
comfort, and at the same time make the load
of he father of moderate means lighter one to
bear. Cents invested in the purchase of metal
tipped shoes, save many hard-earned dollar.

A PARTNERS ADVICE TO A BRIDE.
Said a young husband, whose bus
mess speculations were unsuccess-
full:
"My wife's silver tea-set, the bri-
dial gift of rich uncle, doomed me
to financial ruin. 1t involved humid
red unexpected expenses, which in
trying to meet, have made me the
bankrupt l am"
His experience is the experience
of many others, who less wise, do not
know what is the goblin of the house
working its destruction. A sagacious
father of great wealth exceedingly
mortified his daughter by ordering it
to be printed on her wedding cards,
"No presents except those adapted
to an income of 81, 900" Said he :
"You must not expect to begin
life in the style | am able, by many
years of labor, to indulge and |
know of nothing which will tempt
you try it more than the well-inten-
toned but perniciOus gifts of rich
friends"

WHAT A "CTY GENT" KNOWS
ABOUT FARMING.-One of our young
citizens who went into the country
to work on a farm a few weeks to
seek "health instead of dissipation"
returned the other day little out OF
sorts, but healthy. He had blister
ed his hands hoeing corn, tore the
seat out of pair of twenty dollar
lavender pants at a picnic, one eye
was blackened from attempting to
draw water with an "old oaker
bucket" and a crank, his forehead
was frescoed with mosquito bites
and stone.bruise gave him the
Alexandria limp, he was frecklet
like a leopard, and had been sun
struck four times. With these few
exceptions he had experienced an
elegant time, and is going next sum
mer-to jail in preference to the
country.
