A DEAR SMoKE.-James O'Brien is an
economist, and does not believe in wasting
things, SO on Saturday night his lighted
pipe being at the moment in the way,
he put it in his pocket. This pro-
ceeding proved as bad as a coal oil
explosion, for it set fire to James
duds and nearly burned them off his body,
besides making a heavy demonstration on
the bedding and furniture of Miss Brown
the proprietress of the establishment. The
total loss was about sixty-fve dollars, OF
which nearly two-thirds fell upon Miss
Brown. That's what James economy cost.

The Wealth OF Missouri.

There IS nothing more remarkable in
the history of nations than the rapid
development and growth in wealth and
population of our Territories. The as
sessment returns of the State of Mis-
souri, for the year 1872 give more than a
shadow of probability to the boast of
ambitious st. Louisians, who claim that
their State is destined to become the
first in the Union. Missouri has
36,092, 023 acres of land, which is fairly
valued today at $212, 594 ,426, and with
her cities, towns, and the valuable
buildings in the farming districts, shows
an aggregate real estate valuation of
1927, $50, 142. Within the borders of
the State are 553,S7S horses, valued at
more than $24,OO0,0OO; 1907 asses
and mules, and 1,24S,632 neat cattle, to
say nothing of immense hocks of sheep
and droves of hogs. Nor are the returns
of personal property less astonishing,
showing as they do the almost fabulous
totality of $14O,622, $50, which, added to
the wealth in real estate and stock,
makes the total taxable wealth of the
State 1868, 155,502. This is nearly
double the valuation of 1860, and shows
an increa se of wealth out of all proper
ton to the increase of inhabitants, which
nave only increased from 1,1S2,0l2 to
1,721, 295 during the last decade.

MEDICAL UEsswoRK.--The professional
treatment of disease is in a great meas
ure experimental. If n medicine
fails another is tried, and sometimes
this hit-or-miss practice is ursued until
the resources of the faculty1s exhausted.
This, in the truest sense of the word, is
empiricism. But when the physician has
made a valuable discovery. he is called
by his professional brethren ar Empiric
because he advertises the result of his
labor and research. When DR.. Walker,
of California, introduced his celebrated
VINEGAR BITTERs as q remedy for all
blood diseases, he struck a tremendous
blow at the empirical system, as applied
in our hospitals, and in private practice. 1t
was soon apparent that his medicine was not a
mere palliative or alternative that only modified
the symptoms of a disorder; but that it
reached the very source of the mdLddy in the
blood and the secretions, and literally rooted
1t out. The process of renovation and disin-
lection went on together vigor was impaired
to the organs from which the virus of disease
had been expelled. That such is the effect
of this popular vegetable remedy, no one who
has had opportunities of observing its opera
ton in cases of liver complaint, Indigestion,
affections of the bowels, govt, rheumatism.
and pulmonary disorders, can possibly doubt.
