\ VALUABLE REMEDY. 1t takes years Of
study and observation to perfect any valu-
able article, and especially is this true
when that article is d sure remedy for d.

last fifteen years, become 50 popular all
through the Eastern and Middle States as
u sure and positive cure for rheumatism
in all its forms, and for the multitude of
aches and pains arising from colds, bruises,
burns, and undue strains on the physical
system. So true is this that if it does not
do all that is claimed for it, purchasers are
guaranteed their money back-and no
quack article can be thus indorsed The
history of this medicine may be interest
ing to the curious: OF the patent medi-
cines offered before an indulgent public,

gender those diseases which they seek to
eradicate

Those COMPOUNDED Condolences.

Mr.. Colfax's explanation fails of favor, even
with his formerly most trusted personal and
political friends. The Hartford CO,lrant. con-
tr0lled by Ex-Governor, now Congressman,
Hawey, of Connecticut, one of the stannchest
supporters OF the dominant party, has been
making mathematical computations from The
data afforded by the Credit Mobiller invesli-
ga,ing committee concerning those bank de-
poslts. The exact amount of the deposit, it
will be remembered, was $l96s 50. Twenty
shares of Credit Mobiler would have entitled
Mr. Colfax In 1868 to 60 per cent dividend,
or $1,000, and a 40 per cent. dividend on UnoD
Pacific stock, which at par would have been
$500. But the value of the stock at the time
was SO, and allowing 2 per cent commission
for sale, the net dividend would have been
S768 80. This, with the $1,000, makes sl96S g..
Two possible results of the problem are ad-
milted by the Courant-either Mr.. ColIax Is
not free from intent to deceive the people, or
he Is the "Viclin of wonderful condolences"
These figures are certainly very curious,
showing that there are some excellent ac-
countants 10 Congress besides Mr.. Ames, who
heretofore has done most of The successful
computation. Perhaps, after all, those OF Mr..
Colfax's friends are most merciful who make
the tobacco paralysis of Two years ago still 10
obscure his mind, and are disposed 10 vlnd-
cate his motives by reducing his responsl-
bility.
