Debility opens the door to disease. Nor is this
all. When the door has been opened aud the ter
rible intruder has entered, physical prostration
renders its progress to the citadel Of life compare
lively easy. Therefore bar the door, and if possible
keep it barred; or, if the enemy has already Sc
cured a foothold, rally the strength Of the system
and assist nature to drive out the foe Of health and
life. The means of doing this is within every ones
reach. Brace up the physique with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters when there are elements in the
air you breathe or the water you drink that are
morbid and unwholesome. This is barring the
door. Epidemics and endemics will assail in vain
the living fortress that is thus protected. It may
's laugh q siege to scorn." But if this precautionary
measure has been neglected, the seeds of disease
can be elected by the same potent vegetable agent
that would, if taken earlier, have prevented their
obtaining an entrance into the system. The slim
ulating, invigorating, regulating and purifying
properties of this vital elixir render it q most
formidable antagonist of all debilitating disorders.
The rapidity and certainty with which it van
ouishes fever and ague, rheumatism, bilious collie,
indigestion and nervous complaints, is due in nc
small degree to the strength it imparts to the mus
cuIar fiber, the nerves and the membranes which
line the stomach and the bowels. 1t may be safely
said that a course of the Bitters commenced now
will be a sure protection against most Of the CON.
plants incident to the season.

SOME THINGS UNANSWERED.

1t is very significant fact that Mayor
Van Glider has never attempted to ans
wer our attacks upon his financial exhibit.
He has never explained why it was that
he tried to claim the credit of having saved
the city some Twenty-Five thousand dol
lars, when, in fact, he has increased its
debt s., 46O.19. He has never attempted to
show Whcrc he has expended his SEVENTY
THOUSAND DOLLARS on streets, though
Mayor Bearden shows quite a list of sub
stantial improvements, where about half
that sum was. expended under his admin
istration. He has never explained wheth-
er or not the little item of $500, due on
the Bell House, was omitted from the list
of UNPAID claims" in order to make it a
splendid exhibit" or not. All these
charges have been repeatedly made, but
have been met only by ridicule. Tax
payers can draw their own conclusions.

All kind and merciful Father of all crea-
lures, from the lowest worm that creeps in
the dust unto the highest beings that stand
adoring before thy Divine Majesty; o,
thou Infinite One who art everywhere,
and whom no eye can see and no thought
can comprehend, but every heart can feel,
and in whom we live, move and have our
being, we draw near TO thee who art not
far from every one of us, as thou hast as
sured us through the lovely lips of the
divine seer Moses, on every place thou wilt
bring incense to My name, | shall come
unto thee and bless thee. Exodus, chap.

HoUK'S SCHOOL BILL.

We have before us a copy of the bill to

to'give it careful examination as yet, but
its general features arc substantially as fol-

salary of two thousand dollars. He is to
appoint suitable superintendent in each
county, who is to hold office until August,
1874, and thereafter to be chosen by the
voters of the county; the same as other
civil officers for the county. The pay of
the county superintendent is to be three
dollars per day for the days he is actually
employed His account for services to be
sworn to and certified to by the district
commissioners. He is to examine the
teachers and look after the schools Of the

In various wards of the city boys are kept

The chief employment they get is mischief
making, and perhaps they prefer it. As

original purpose of Mayor Van Glider to
enforce the poll tax law in the election of

sentiment drove him from the purpose he
had his organ claim he never had favored
the law. Our dispatches show that the
law has been approved, so there can be no
