A Successful Company.

1t is agreeable to hear our Life insur-
ance companies spoken well OF, but we
feel much pride in the remarks of the
New York Insurance Commissioner, re-
garding our most enterprising company
The Equitable Life Assurance Society
which, he says, ''marks and distinguishes
the commencement Of the recent astound-
ing progress in the business of Life in.
surance."
The Equitable Society took its position
at the head of our companies some three
or four years ago, and has since annually
transacted more new business than any
other company in the world. 1t has nc
longer an equal competitor. Its proud
position is due not only to its usefulness
security, wealth, and liberality, but to the
good will of the people, whose preference:
It has gained because it has answered theil
requirements most completely in every
thing that pertains to Life insurance.

INTOXICATING NOSTRUMs.-The per-
sons who have scruples of conscience
against perpendicular Drinking at tav-
ern bars, can become blind drunk on al
most any of the advertised ''tOnics" or
''invigorants" in half an hour. There is,
however, one exception to this rule. No
body can ''get over the bay" on VINEGAR
BITTERs, for the simple reason that this
famous renovating and regulating medi-
cine contains no diffusive stimulants OF
any kind. Yet its strength reserving
properties are marvellous. 1t restores the
relish for food when all other appetiZers
fail i; imparts unwonted vigor to the di-
gestive functions; regulates the flow OF
bile; soothes the nervous system; pro-
notes healthful sleep; and tends to pro-
duce that condition of body and brain
which is supposed to be most conducive
to longevity and the enjoyment of life.
Its specific effects In acute and chronic
disorders affecting the stomach, the
bowels, the spine, the kidneys, the fieshy
fiber, the muscles and the lungs, are con-
sidered by competent judges the most ex-
traordinary medical phenomena of the
age. Vinegar Bitters has now a larger
sale than any Of the spirituous astrin-
gents, and its immense popularity in a
land where the people observe closely,
test thoroughly, and act independently,
is in itself sufficient guarantee of the ex.
cellence OF the medicine. We recommend
it to all.

A Memorial Gift.

The round of gifts for holiday season
is soon exhausted. Books, and jewels,
and trifles repeat themselves with the re-
turn of every Christmas and New Year,
so that we are weary OF choosing from
them. We want to find a remembrance
for our friends, having something more
than that temporary value which these
customary gifts possess.
There Is new gift more graceful and
useful than anything that is to be found
in the shops. Its possession is not only q
benefit for life, but it keeps its giver in
perpetual remembrance. 1t is Life In.
surance policy, presented on New Years
day by the husband to his wife; by the
parish to their pastor.
Can there be better commemorative
of this joyful season of the year thar
such gift? 1t will bear fruit long after
all other offerings are lost and forgotten
and it is one which the giver can never re
gret.

The Faculties OF Dogs.

A little reflection shows that dog ap-
proaches man much more nearly In the
matter of feeling than either of physical or
mental characteristics.
A dog feels anger precisely as we do,
and after provocation is sometimes vlndic-
tive and sometimes placable. according to
his individual character. He is suscepti-
BILE of hatred of the bitterest kind. He is
so overwhelmingly jealous that his life be-
comes burden in the presence OF favor
ed rival. His envy continually leads him
70 eat what he does not want lest another
animal should take it, ard to illustrate the
fable of 1.-The Dog in the Manger." Gtut-
tony holds out to him temptations under
which even his honesty sometimes sue
cumbs; but, on the other hand, from
drunkenness he is nobly emancipated. A
dog mentioned by the Rev. Thomas Jack
son having been once made so drunk with
malt liquor that he was unable to walk
up stairs, ever after declined 10 taste the
pernicious- beverage, and growled and
snarled at the sight of pewter pot.
Again. as to lore, Don Juan was a cold
and uninteresting character compared to
a dog; and as to maternal affection, the
mother dog feels it with heroic passion,
starving herself to death rather than for
sake her offspring. Gratitude may be al
most said to be dogs leading principle,
supplying first the spring of allegiance to
his master, and ever after reconciling
him with true magnanimity to take
evil from the hand from which he has ac-
cepted good. Regret and grief he feels so
deeply that they often break his heart.
Fear Is passion which dogs exhibit with
singular variation, some breeds and indi-
viduals being very timorous and others
perfect models of courage; the latter char
acteristic, and tortitude seeming to be
more Enthusiastically canine. A grey
hound has been known after breaking his
thigh, to run on till the course was con
cluded and in the excellent new volume
sOn the Dog by Idstone, is a frightful
story of fOxhound whom its ferocious
master flogged so savagely for babbling,
as to cut out its eye with his whip. The
animal continued to hunt with the pack
till the end of the chase, whereupon the
human brute, certain Colonel Thornten,
took out his scissors and severed the
skin. by which the dogs eve had hung

USEFUL SUGGESTIONS.

REMEDY FOR COLD FEET.-SOak the feet
in warm water, with little cayenne pep
per in it, two or three times week. Try
this for month, or longer, if necessary,
and you will find it an excellent remedy
for cold feet.
To COLOR sheep skins with the wool on,
the Country Gentleman gives the following
recipe: ''Unslacked lime and litharge,
equal parts, mixed to a thin paste with
water, will color buff-several coats will
make it a dark brown-by adding little
ammonia and nitrate silver, a fine black is
produced. Terra japonita will impart q

Tho coming yoer promises to bo
tho most eventful in q polttica1 sense
that we have seen since the close Of
tho war. The questions which have
ongrossed and divided the public
mind during the past twonty wears
aro. rapidly passing away. md wo
find growing up in different parts Of
the country party called by vari-
Gus namos---in California tho Inde-
pendent party, in Iowa the Anti
Monopoly party, in Wisconsin tho
Reform party, In Illinois tho
Farmers Movoment---having & COM
mon purpose and inspiration, and
exhibiting strength which proves
that it answers one Of the chief de-
mands Of the hour. The CHICAGO
TRIBUNE will give d large share
of its attention to this NEW MAN.
HESITATION OF PUBLIC sENT1-
MENT. It holds:
1st. That the old party organlza~
tfons are essentially corrupt and
fraudulent. Having no longer any
principles to carry into effect, they
have become mere business outer-
prises, making show Of opposition
to each other, but really sharing in
tho proceeds OF protligate and dis
honest legislation. To suppose that
any healthful reform can flow from
tho pretended efforts Of these worn
out and demoralized partnerships
Is altogether VAN anu 1llusory.
Cd. That the tariff system now in
vogue is q cunning devico to rob tho
many for the benefit Of the few, and
that its effect is to cause farm pro-
ducts to exchange for about one-hnlf
tho quantity of foreign or @pro-
tectcd" goods they would otherwise
buy.
Sd. That railroads cannot exact
more than fair rate Of interest on
the capital actually invested in them,
and that when, in addition to this,
they claim dividends on watered
stock and fraudulent bonds, the
State may rightfully interfere for the
protection OF the people; that unjust
determinations between different
localities are in violation OF law and
should be prohibited.
4th. That subsidies or bounties Of
money, land, or public credit, to
railway, steamship, or other corpo-
rations, arc hagraut abuses Of the
powers Of government, fraught with
the gravest dangers to the people,
and tending to promote corruption,
extravaganoe, speculation, and
financial disaster. 80,
The general character OF THE
CHICAGO TRIBUNE is too well
established to need recap1tulatlon.
It is always independent and fear
