Revolutions Never Go Backward.

The philosophical theory that the human system
when weakened by disease, oppressive heat, ex-
cessive labor or any other cause, should be toned
and invigorated instead Of being subjected to the
action OF depicting drugs, r. gaining ground every
day. The introduction of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters twenty years ago gave powerful influence
TO this common sense idea As the extraordinary
efficacy Of the Great Vegetable Restorative be-
came known, multtudes Of debilitated invslids
turned with loathing from the nauseous and
strength-desuoying potons with which It was then
the fashion TO drench the sick, to this renoyatng
appeizing, vitalzlng preparation derived from the
finest roots, herbs and bar1s placed by botanical
research at the disposal Of medical science. Rev
olutions never go backward. From that time to
the present the importance of assisting and rein
forcing nature in her struggles with disease has
been more and more widely and keenly appreci-
ated by the sick and the suffering. In tens Of
thousands Of households Hostetter's Btters are
looked upon as the one thing needful in cases OF
Dyspepsia, General Debility, Constipation, Nerv-
Gus Weakness, Chills and Fever, Bilious Affections
and all conditions Of the body and mind that be-
token lack OF vital energy. When the quick
silver ranges high, and the solid flesh is resolving
itself into a den under the fervid temperature,
this agreeable tonic is the best possible safeguard
against all the disorders generated by a sutry and
unwholesome atmosphere. II prevents and re-
ieyes lassitude and languOr, and enables the sys-
tenn TO endure with impunity an unusual amount
Of exertiOn. OF all inygorating and regulating
medicines, 1t Is the purest and most wholesome.

Agricultural Report for July.
WAsurNGrnN- Lnlv %

WASHINGTON, July 2S,
THE July agricultural report just sent
to press represents an improvement in
winter wheat, but decline in the pros
poets of spring wheat on account of the
unreasonable weather in some quarters,
and the insect enemies in others. The
average in corn is increased in West Nir-
ginia and Minnesota, and decreased in all
the other States, except Florida and Ar
kansas, where it remains the same as last
year. Corn planting was everywhere re-
tarded by the weather and in many cases
the corn has been several times replanted.
The universal complaint Of defective seed
is made in all parts Of the country.
The condition of cotton has been pre-
viously given. The reports up to July
first indicate the crop to be S0.5 per cent.
of average, not including Virginia, where
the culture is yet mainly experimental.
The prospective yield of oats declined
during June in New England, and the
Middle and Northwestern States, except
in Wisconsin. 1t was enhanced in all of
the Gulf States except Mississippi.
Winter rye improved in Rhode Island,
Connecticut, New Jersey, Maryland,
North Carolina, Mississippi, Texas, Ar
kansas, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois and Iowa.
1t remained stationary in Georgia, and de-
clined in all the other States Spring rye
was below the average in all the States but
five, the minimum, 7, being found in Cal
ifornia, and the maximum, 1lO, in Ne
braska.
Winter barley generally declined in the
South and West, where the heavy rains
prevailed.
The grass crops have generally improv-
ed in New England andthe Middle States.
However, they were greatly shortened by
the drought.
The late winter told disastrously upon
the fruit crop. The injury to the apple
trees was more extensive than was appar-
ent at the last report. Vast numbers of
peach trees were killed. The condition
of the grape crop ranged from 81 in Cali
fornia to 127 in Nebraska, 100 represent
ing the average.
The average in potatoes remained the
same as last year, or increased in twenty
two States and decreased in all the others.
The Colorado beetle has extended its raw
ages eastward, being reported for the first
time in several counties of New York. 1t
was still devastating in the West, but the
farmers had learned in many counties
how to destroy IL eftectually. The max
imum condition of the crop, III, was
found in Georgia, ard the minimum, 70,

agreed, and went home to get ready. His

Reduction of Rates.

There is no one thing which the press
Of the large cities of the country has been
more uniform and persistent in than in
their persistent advocacy of such reduc-
ton in the premiums charged for life in
surance as would bring that protection
from want within the reach of every fam
lily. The National Life Insurance Com
pany of the United States of America, L.
a. Rollins, President, Jay Cooke, Chair
man of Finance Committee, capital larger
than that Of any other life company in the
world, has placed its rates at about three
quarters of those charged by most com
panies, and wants an agent in every local
ity. 1t has the essential qualities of
strength and cheapness, and we advise all
looking for full or partial employment in
life insurance to address the company at
Philadelphia.

of the leading citizens of Pennsylvania
hold policies in the same company. The
Penn MUTUAL was organized in 1947, and
its career has been one of uneXampled
prosperity, 1t has now an accumulated
fund of over $4,000,000 The ''PENNn has
recently increased its new business large

Pimples, Eruptions, Rough Skin.

DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for a
few weeks, the skin becomes smooth, clear,
soft, and velvety, and being Illuminated with
the glow of perfect health from within, true
beauty stands forth in all its glory. Nothing
ever presented to the public as beautifer of
the complexion ever gave such satisfaction for
this purpose as tlis Discovery. The effects of
all medicines which operate upon the system
through the medium of the blood are neees-
sarily somewhat slow, no matter how good the
remedy employed. While one to three bottles
clear the skin Of pimples, blotches, eruptions,
yellow spots, comedones, or ''grubs," dozen
may possibly be required to cure some cases
where the system is rotten with scrofulous or
virulent blood poisons. The cure of all these
diseases, however, from the common pimple
to the worst serofula is, with the use Of this
most potent agent, only matter Of time.
