Though confirmation strong as

Gus as the sands on the sea shore, were
produced to prove that DR.. Pierce, the
proprietor of DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy, is in earnest and means what

not cure, yet there would be sOme

cit cannot be, because DIR. Homespun
says Catarrh cannot be cured" Now.
this DR.. Homespun is the identical
good natured old fellow who honestly
believes and persists in declaring that
this earth is not round or spherical,
but fiat as a " flap-jack" and does not
turn over, otherwise the water would
all be spilled out of Deacon Bascom's
mill pond. But astronomical science
has positively demonstrated and pro-
ven that DIR. Homespun is wrong in
supposing this earth to be fat and
stationary, and medical science is daily
proving the fact that he is no less
mistaken and behind the times in re-
gard to the durability of Catarrh. In
short, it has been positively proven
that this world Dg0Ves and that medical
science is prOgressioe-the opinion of
DR.. Homespun TO tine contrary not

That Boasted Retrenchment.

If one were to place confidence in
the Wanting of the Radical papers
he would be led to believe that tha
party had completely lited the heavy
burden from the shoulders of the peO-
pie. They tell about having reduced
taxation eighty millions of dollars,
and about reducing the tariff taxes
and all that, yet the expenditures of
the Government have not been reduc-
ed two million dollars in the last year,
as will be seen by the following sum-
mary of the total appropriations pass
ed by the last session of Congress !:
and even when this amount is expen-
ded they may have to provide for de-
ficiencies, as is usually the case after
an important political contest. The
leaders of that party understand full
well the importance of making a show
of retrenchment and reform while
asking the suffrages of the people:
