Charles Reade on TichbOrnp.

The Tichborne case has evidently re-
ceived the close attention of dramatists,
who must have derived many hint
therefrom in the matter of plot and
character. Mr.. Charles Reade gives his
and direct style, of the identity of the
claimant. Pointing out that three sepa-
rate condolences, fixing guilt upon q
suspected murderer. are sufficient to
hang him, Mr.. Reade goes on to say:
In the Tichborne case, the barefaced
condolences, all pointing to the Itch
borne claimant as Arthur Orton, are not
less than seven; and to these you may
add one of superlative Importance, viz:
the coincidence of character. Character
is the key to mems actions, and it is
clear that Arthur Orton, when quite a
youth, was instinctively inclined toward
an imposture of the same kind, though
not the same degree, that a jury has
fixed upon the Tichborne claimant
This youth, though 'begot by butchers,
and by butchers Bred did yet hold his
naughty head high out in Brazil, and
boasted of some lofty origin or other.
If you will only take sheet of paper
W NO"A, III
all the barefaced condolences, and then
add the coincidence of character, and
then add to that the circumstance that
no other Arthur Orton could be found
to go into the witness box, and say, Il
am Arthur Orton,' though those four
words would have been worth fifty
thousand pounds to the claimant and
his bondholders, you will see such an
army of heterogeneous proofs, all ra-
dating to one centre, as no recorded
trial ever elected before. Now, the
naturalists have laid down a maxim of
reasoning in such cases, which every
lawyer of England would do well to
copy into his notebook: The true So
luton is that which reconciles all the
indisputable facts Apply this test to
the theories that the claimant is Castro,
is Doolan is Morgan; those theories all
dissolve before that immortal piece OF
wisdom like hailstones before the mid
summer sun. In the same way-to use
a favorite form in Euclid-it can be
proved that noe other person., except
Arthur Orton, is the Tichborne
claimant"

MILLIONS ON THE STRIKE I'm spite
of the enormous amount of capital in
vested in the promotion of Intemperance,
the Missionaries of Sobriety have no
reason to be disheartoned. The strike
against alcoholic drinks is not confined
to the ordinary liquors of commerce. 1t
is extending to all medicines of which
ardent spirits form q component part.
The belief that stimulants of this nature
are stooo poisOns gains ground everywhere.
Eminent Psychologists preach the doc
trine, and the dissecting knife and the
microscope afford post mortom evidence
of its truth. Fortunately at the very
time when our distinguished surgeons
were making the experiments which led
to this conclusion, a sagacious member
of the profession, DR.. Joseph Walker of
California, was perfecting n vegetable
tonic, possessing all the restorative prop
critics claimed for the spirituous astring-
ents, and free from their deadly sting.
To those demoralizing, health destroy
ingpotions his famous VINEGAR BITTERs
seem to be giving the coup de grace. The
demand for them declines, while the
commercial and sanitary success of the
new medicine is complete. And we hear
daily of cases of dyspepsia, biliousness,
malarious fever, rheumatism, constipa-
ton, general and local debility, gout,
kidney disease, etc. etc, that have suc-
cumbed to the great restorative after re-
sisting all others.

THE TENACITY OF TRUTH.-Whcn a ration
as clear.headed as the Americans once become
convinced, from long experience and observa-
ton, that an article possesses superior excel
lence as medicine, not all the preposterou'
clamor of all the worthless nostrum vendors
in the universe can shake their belief in its
efficiency. Trnth is a very tenacious thing, as
these worthless are beginning to discover.
PLANTATION BITTERs has too firm hold up
on the popular esteem to be in the slightest
degree affected by the cold water diatribes
which the advertisers of fe mented slops,
" "without particle of alcohol" are so fond OF
lauchng against alcoholic preparations. The
public knows very well that this peerless rem
ovant and tonic does contain spirits, but II
also knows that they are of the purest and
most wholesome description, viz. fine old

iuser of its remedial aud invigorating proper

Revolutions Never Go Back ward.

The philosophical theory that the human system
when weakened by disease oppressive heat excessive
labor or any other cause should be toned and in
vigoaed instead of being subjected to the action of
depicting drugs is gaining ground every day. The
introduction of Hostetters Stomach Btters twenty
years ago gave powerful influence to this common
idea. As the extraordinary efficacy of the Great
Vegetable Restorative became known, multitudes of
deblitated invalids turned with oathing from tie
nauseous and strengthdestroyng potions with which
it then the fashion drench the SICK to this
from the finest rosts herbs and barE placed by botan
cal research at the disposal of medical science Revo
lutions never go backward. From that time to the
present the Importance of assisting and reinforcing
nature in her struggles with disease has been more
and more widely and keenly appreciated by the sick
and the suffering. In tens of thousands of households
Hostetters Bitters are looked upon the thing
needfu in of Dyspepsia, General Debility Con-
stipation, Nervous Weakness, Chlls and Fever, Bill
Affections and all conditions of the body and mind
that betoken lack of vital energy. When the quick
silver ranges high and the solid flesh is resolving
itself into den under the fevid temperature, this
agreeable tonic is the best possible safeguard against
all the disorders generated by sultry and unwhole-
some atmosphere 1t prevents and relieves assitude
and languor, and an unusual amount of exerton. OF
all nvigorating and regulating medicines, it is the
purest and most wholesome.

ment was followed, keeping well-salted
milk before them at least half the time,
giving also plenty of water. The result
was in about fortnight the long necks
were bristling with pin feathers, and IN
an incredibly short time they were full
plumed and shining marvellously. Since
then I have taken particular pains to
give my fowls salt food, as much as L
should judge necessary or palatable Tor
a person, and have had no more feather
eating, though the fowls and the treat
ment have been the same in other re-
spects. ,.
"I imagine they obtained little salt
from the feathers whatever the reason
may be, the cure was perfect, and no
injury to the fowls resulted therefrom."

Homes Reduced by Dress,

Only those women who have not the
money to dress can fully appreciate
the crushing weight which society ruth
lessly heaps upon this disability. To be
unable to "dress" is to be treated with
almost disrespect in the car, the boat,
mt the public gathering, the street and
the shop; to be ignored; to feel the
shrug of contempt, the sneer of levity
and the smile of scorn to be thrust
aside; to be laughed at; to be uncere-
moniously displaced; to be cruelty
driven out of good society to have
your heart, your intelligence, your
thought, your virtue, your character
held rs nothing against silk; to be
stung; to be outraged to be proscriOed ;
to be insulted all this and much more
for the lack of money "to dress"
1t matters not whether this rule of So
ciety is right or wrong, the fact remains
to blight and to ruin. The fashionable
lady thinks nothing of paying S75 for
making a dress, made up of forty yards
of silk, at from 81 to $40 per yard
These are the women who rule the
street, drawing-rooms, theatres-dary
we say churches. After such the lesser
lights take pattern. What defense have
the girls who work for from 81 to SIC
per week against this arrayY
The rich can be fashionable, the pool
cannot be by honest means The poor
industrious shop girl looks upon even
500 dresses and they are beyond hel
reach. There is $40 gulf between hel
and them-between her and the respect
and attention of society. Her virtue
will span the chasm. She longs to lif
the load of poverty, to receive the cares
of society, to be freed from bondage
She sells herself to hell for dress. Aftel
the first step is taken, it is not long be
fore all useful labor is eschewed, ant
the foul vice made to be the only ser
vice of income. This is no picture, bu
what happens every day, and is a plaiI
statement of how the recruits to broth
els are made.
This mania for dress" is devastating
our American society and demoralizins
American women to an alarming ex
tent. The wives and daughters of tn
rich men who lead society in this fear
full race of extravaganza are responsible
for great share of the prostitution
which curses the nation as well as TO
thousands of business failures, scattere,
families, and the long train of miserie
among us under the cover of "keepinI
up appearances" Let those who hav
the courage take this lesson and ac
upon it.

KISS AT THE DOOR. j.

wo were standing in tho doorway
MY little wife and l.
The golden sun upon her hair
Fell down so silently;
A small white hand upon my erms
What could I ask for more
Than the kindly glance Of loving oyos
As che kissed me at the door
VINO cares for wealth, or land, or gold,
Or fame, OF matchless powerp
1t does not give the happiness
Ofjust one little hour
With one who loves me as her life
And say" "she loves me more
And I thought she did this morning,
As che kissed me at the door.
At times Il seems that all the world.
With all its wealth and gold,
Is very small and poor indeed
Compared with what hold
And when the clouds hang grim and dark
only wait the more
For one who waits my coming step
To kiss me at the door.
If she lives till age shall scatter
The frost upon her head,
I know she'll love me Just the came
As the morning we were wed;
But if the angels call her,
And she goes to Heaven before,
shall know her when meet her,
For she'll kiss me at the door.

SALT FOR FowLs.-A lady thus writes

"In the fall of the year 1869, my
