The Labor Question.

The Boston Eight Hour League pro- tests against the platform of the National Labor party, adopted at Columbus, Ohio, for the following reasons First, be- cause it does not contain statement of the underlying principles of the move ment nor propose any measure that will remedy existing evils :; second, because it deals mainly with finance, currency and taxation or decreasing interest will result in corresponding reduction of wages, as wages are everywhere regulated by the cost of living third, because it did not demand the enforcement of the Eight Hour law, and petition for it's fur ther extention to the Patentlaws, instead of asking for law already in existence; l; fourth, because it did not denounce that barbarian of the North, the factory sys- tenn, that forces tens of thousands of children from seven to fifteen years of age to toll in overloaded rooms eleven and twelve hours day-a system that is dwarfng their minds, crippling their forms, and rearing class whose existence endangers the perpetuity of our govern ment; fifth, because of it's neglect to thank the Hon. George F. Hoar for his bill for National Bureau of Labor, and his demand for it's passage by the Senate and the subsequent appointment by the Senate of a majority of the Commission CTS from the ranks of the friends of la Dor {; sixth, because it failed to extend its friendly greeting to our brothers in Europe, of every nationality struggling with us for labor redemption. -E:ccha9age.

SUcC Based mon Merit.

It IS subject ot general remark,
 among both wholesale and retail drug gists, that no medicine introduced to the American public has ever gained such a popularity and met with so large a sale in all parts of the land, in the same length of time, as has Dr. Prices Golden Medical Discovery. This cannot depend upon it's having been more largely adver- tised than any other medicine, as such is not the case. The correct explanation, We think, is found in the fact that this medicine produces the most wonderful and perfect cures of very bad cases of bronchial, throat and lung diseases, is undoubtedly the most perfect and eff cient remedy for all kinds of Coughs that has ever been introduced to the public, and at the same time possesses the great est of blood purifying and strengthening properties that medical science has been able to produce, thus rendering it sov= ereign remedy not only in the cure of Consumption, Bronchitis, Hoarseness and Coughs, but also for all diseases of the liver and blood, as scrofulous diseases. skin diseases, blotches, rough skin, pim- pies, black specks and discolorations. It has therefore wide range of applica- tion and usefulness, and it not only gives the most perfect satisfaction to all who use it, but far exceeds the expecta- tions of the most sanguine, thus elici- ting the loudest praise and making per manent Hoimg advertising mediums of all who use it. For these reasons it is that there is not perhaps druggist in all the vast domain of the continent, who tries to please his customers and supply their wants, that does not keep and sell large quantities of this most valuable medicine.

Notes on the Fashions.

The large-fgured Spanish lace is to be used this season for bridal vsils.
 The newest style of lace parasols has tortoise-sheH or carved coral handles.
 White muslin, lace, and silk neckties are the most fashionable at this season.
 The combination of blonde hair and black eyebrows is considered by many to be a mark of great beauty in either sex. a f;'-
 A new style of house shoe is sort oi high slipper of the color of the dress, buttoned on one side with six small but tons.
 Awoman's head, with the present fash ion of wearing the hair, and the high bonnet, is said to be as large as that of a horse.
 A new style of locket is made of five dollar gold piece, which is hollowed out large enough to hold 8 likeness, and opens with a spring.
 Dark green cloth riding habits are the most fashionable at this season, and are trimmed across the front with wide sen tache braid, c La miIitaire.
 Many ladies express great dislike for the '"Dolly Warden " costumes, and con- f1dently assert that they will never be seen wearing them. If the fashion lasts any length of time, however, we would not be too sure that they would not change their minds.
