There is no pain which the Centaur Liniment
will not relieve, no swelling it will not subdue
and no iameness which it will not cure. This is
strong language, but it is true. Where the part
is not gone, its effects are marvellous. 1t has
produced more cures OF rheumatism, neuralgia,
lock-jaw, palsy, sprains, swellings, caked-
breasts, scalds, burns, salt rhuem, ear-ache,
&C., upon the human frame, and of strains,
SPAWN, gals, &C., upon animals in one year
than have all other pretended remedies since
the world began. 1t is a counter -irE1tant, an
an-healing pain reliey er cripples throw away
their crutches, the lame walk, poisonous bites
are renderei- harmless and the wounded are
healed without q scar. 1t Is no humbug. The
ecipe Is publfshod aronnd each bottle. 1t is
selling as article ever before sold and it sells
because Il does just what it pretends to do
Those who now suner from rheumatism, pain
or swelling. deserve, to snaer if they will not

Gates of remarkable cures, including frozen
limbs, chronic rheumatism, gout, running tu-

tie of the yellow wrapper Centanr Liniment is
worth one hundred dollars for spawned or

Summer Play.

Nothing can be more cruel and moth
ing more foolish than to place children
where they must be dressed every da,
in fresh and fashionable clothes, ant
their freedom to play curtailed for thu
sake of appearances. What childhood
needs is perfect freedom among the
things of nature-freedom to romp, tc
make mud pies, to leap fences, to row
to fish, to climb trees, to chase butter
flies, to gather wild flowers, to live out
of doors, from morning until night, and
to do all those things that Innocent and
healthy childhood delight in, in cheap,
strong clothes for the purpose. Exact
" that which Childhood needs, man.
hood and womanhood need-per feet
liberty and perfect carelessness. So
whether the dweller by the sea 60 in
land for his summer play, or the resi-
dent of the inland city 60 to the sea,
he should seek some spot unvisited by
those devoted to fashionable display,
and pass his time in unrestricted COM
munion with nature, and i'm those pur-
suits and amusements which, without
let or hindrance perform the Office OF
recreation.-Dr. T. G.. Holland; Scri6-
asr's for July.

Poor Excuse.

Some men give as an excuse for not
taking the paper that they have no time
to read it. This is simply no excuse at
all, but is an index of selfish man.
Supposing that the head of the family
has no time to read, the wife and chill
dren would he glad to have the paper.
Men do not need newspaper as women
do. The former hear the news on the
street, in the store or at their work, and
in nine cases out of ten forget to tell
their families anything about 1t. The
mothers and sisters who have no time
but for toll, know little of what is tran.
spring unless they see news carrier
of some sort. If man cannot find
time to read, and can afford to take it
9le should subscribe for the sake of hi!
family. II he cannot afford it, w
should honor him for saying so frankly
rather than try to hide his Inability
under such poor excuse as the on
which furnishes our text.

Postage Stamps. How Prepared.

As soon as they emerge from the hy-
draulic press, postage stamps are gum
med The paste is made from clear
starch, or rather its dextrine, which i:
acted upon chemically and then boiled
forming q clear, smooth, slightly sweet
mixture. Each sheet Of stamps is ia
ken separately, placed upon fat board
and its edges covered with light metal
frame. Then Che paste issmeared OIL
with a large whitewash brush and the
sheet is laid between two wire racks
and placed on pile with others to dry
Great care is taken in the manufacture
OF this paste, which is perfectIy harm
less. This gratifying fact has been con-
clusiyely proved by an analysis recent
ly made by an eminent chemist. After
the cumming another pressing in the
hydraulic press follows. Then another
counting-in fact, stamps are counted
no less than thirteen times during the
processes of manufacture. The sheets
are then cut In half, each portion con-
tanning one hundred stamps this being
done by girls with ordinary hand
shears. Next follows the perforation,
which is performed by machinery. The
perforations are first made in perpen-
dicular line, and afterward in a horizon
tai line. Another pressing follows
this time to get rid Of the raised edges
on the back Of the stamps made by the
dies, and this ends the manufacture. A
separate apartment is devoted to the
packing and sending of the stamps to
the different post-offices. 1t will be
seen by this account that any rumors
the poisonous or unclean
properties of postage stamps are utter
ly without foundation.

Our Exchanges.

After looking over a list of our ex-
changes we find but very few that we
are willing to part with. We have had
a very few that have been of no special
use to us, although We have read them
weekly with some interest. We regret
to part with them, but under the cir
cumstances we cannot do otherwise
than continue an exchange with those
only that are useful to US. We shall
continue sending the REPUBLICAN to
all with whom we desire an exchange
unless we receive an intimation that il
is not wanted. II

Complimentary.

While several Constitutional Dele
gates, ours among the rest, were pass
! ing over the Pan Handle road a few
days since, going to their homes prob
ably, an old gentleman in same car, did
not like their looks, and asked who they
were. Some one told him that he
guessed they were delegates returning
from the Constitutional Convention
This did not satisfy the old gentleman
who declared he was not going to stay
in that car, for they were either pick.
pockets or horse-thieves. So he left
them and went into another car. l

Struck for Higher Wages.

We read of a postmaster somewhere
in New Jersey, who has struck for an
increase of salary. Why: Simply be-
cause his duties have become so onerous
since the introduction of postal cards.
Whereas, he could attend to business
readily enough before, yet the increase
Of labor in reading all the postal card
messages which go through his hands
now, compels him to ask for higher
salary and, as he pertinently inquiries,
sis not the laborer worthy of his high

What Manufacturing Does.

There is many city and town that
will appreciate the following: One
mandatory employing hundred men
will support an additional five hundred
people. Three hundred families will
disburse annually, on an average, seven
hundred and fifty dollars, or seventy
five thousand dollars in the aggregate
This money will be drawn into the town
from the outside, where the manufac'
tured goods are consumed, and the in
terest of this $4,000 at ten per cent
would be $500. These hundred fam.
flies, too, would require a hundred
houses, thousands of pounds of agri-
cultural produce, and thousands O
yards of cotton and woolen goods, thus
giving health and impetus to every
branch of industry.

Increased Pensions to Widows.

The pension laws as amended by the
last Congress, will give increased PEN
sions to widows having one child. The
amount of increase is 80 per month, and
has only been allowed heretofore ex-
cept where there is more than one child.
Many claims are now being filed under
the new law, and the question to be de-
cided is whether the increase is to date
back from July 25, 1866, the date of the
original act increasing widows pen
sions, or from the date of the modified
law of last session.

Don't stop your Paper for Five Cents.

The small matter of fivecents quar-
ter every three months) should not
frighten the right-minded man out OF
taking his home paper. There is scarce
ly any one in the county who has not
taken foreign paper year after year
and paid the postage and not thought
anything of it. Now when you are re-
luired to do the same-through the late
act Of Congress-for your home paper
do not get scared and straightway dis
continue 1t. Remember always to sup
port your home institutions first and
foreign publications next, and pay the
postage like man without grumbiing'
The next Congress will reenact the law
making county papers free. So bear II
patiently and all will be right in the
end.

Jail Bird Escaped.

byterian Church, which strangers fire.
quently take for a handsome residence
at first sight. In this building now
lives man well known throughout the
county for his honesty and integrity
one who has hosts OF friends. But a
little joke was perpetrated on him last
Sunday, that We must relate. The
Sheriff, for tins is the title by which
this man is known, had taken supper to
one OF the prisoners, by name ''No-
Name" somewhat known in this coun-
ty, not long since. While in the cell,
the prisoner made break for the door,
through which he went, and succeeded
in closing after him, turning the.key,
upon the sheriff, and leaving him alone
in his glory, making good his own es-
cape. He has not been heard from
since. 1t was quite while before the
sheriff could be got out.
