General debility, and the dependency by which
1t 10 invariably accompanied often regarded a.
the'symptoms of incurable physical decay. OF per-
sons thus afflicted it In often said that their const.
tutions are undermined; that they have nothing
left to fall back upon that they are hopeless
This, I'm ut least eight out Of ten, IL false
conclusion. A constitution may be shaken without
being undermined; and even II undermined may
be propped and strengthened; and In many So
called hopeless cases there are reserves Of vitality
and latent vigor IN the system that only require
stimulating and developing to render them equal to
the work Of repair. Tho best and surest stimulant

MEDICAL GuEsswoRK.-The profes.
sional treatment of disease is in great
measure experimental. If one medi-
cine fails another is tried, and some-
times this hit-or-miss practice is pur.
sued until the resources of the faculty
is exhausted. This, IN the truest sense
OF the word, is e.apiricism. But when
the physician has made valuable dis
covery, he is called by his professional
brethren an Enepiric because he adver-
tises the result of his labor and re-
search. When DR.. Walker of California
introduced his celebrated VINEGAR BIT
TIERS as q remedy for all blood dis
eases, he struck tremendous blow at
the empirical system, as applied in
our hospitals, and in private practice.
1t was soon apparent that his medicine
was not mere palliative or alternative
that only modified the symptoms of a
disorder; but that it reached the very
so"'ce OF the naolady in the blood and
the secretions, and literally rooted 1t
OFT: The process of renovation and
dlslnfection went on together, vigor

the virus of disease had been expelled.

Jam es Monroe, of the Oberlin Ohio
District, has introduced q bill, which
was referred to the Banking and Cur.
rency Committee, repeating the clause
of the law of July II, 1870, which au.
thorizes the Comptroller of tho cur-
rency to remove $25, 000, 900 from the
Eastern to the Southern and Western
States after the $54, 600, 900 authorized
by the act are exhaueted, and provid-
ing for an increase of the CURRENCY of
$25, 600, 600. The $54 900, 600 have
been exhausted, and the Comptroller
finds it impracticable to remove the
$25, 600, 600 from the East, owing to the
monetary stringency. Mr.. Monroe
consequently introduces the bill to
satisfy the expectations which the peo-
Pie West and South have based upon
this act.

A Fable.
BY BELLA FRENCH.

~>>~~asse
An ant was travelling one day:
She mad tiny crumb Of bread.
That she had logged weary way,
That all her children might be fed.
she smiled rs only ants can smile;
For homo was getting slowly nigh.
She paused, and wiped her face awhile,
And breathed inaudibly sigh.
This is hard, hard world" thought she,
And mourntully she shook her head
Those ants that have to toll like me
We're better off if they were dead.
Then what q care my children arel
Ungrateful too, have to own:
They bring no joy-'twsre better far
II Iwere really all alone.
In this most lovely world of ours.
Oh thcn how happy could be!
No work to do; I'd rest on flowers"
And here she paused in agony.
Her home was rcaclcd-no home, alas!
Tho thought came with dreary pain.
A hcartless youth who'd chance to pass
Had thrust in it his dainty cane.
Ne little voices asked for bread;
No sweet caresses made her glad;
Her tiny children all were dead,
And yet the ant was very sad.
MORAL,
We oft complain in deep distress,
And censure Him who rules above;
Yet find our greatest happiness
In working for the ones VIC love,

From the Chicago Times IT Tuesday.
One Of the oldest inhabitants of Cook
county is Peter Crawford, ESQ. Mr..
Craw ford, accompanied by his wife and
three childfenj came to Chicago 80
years ago. Previous to that time he
lived in Buffalo, N. Y, to which city
himself and wife emigrated from Scot
land. During hie residence in Buffalo
Mr.. Crawford worked hard, and in the
c6ufss Of 40 years had saved up about
81, 500! Becoming satisfied that at this
rate he would never be anything but q
roof iasn, he determined to go further
west and try to better his fortunes in
the new country just then becoming
known. While he had been in Buffalo
his wife had borne unto him three sons
and one daughter. =.
On their arrival in Cook county, Mr..
Crawford invested his 1900 in land,
and on this farm himself and Sons
worked faithfully; And in course of
time were made happy With increased
riches. City lots we're purchased, and
houses were built; but "the farm"
was held. and as Chicago grew into
greatness it became more and more
valuable, until to-day it is worth %, 600
On last Wednesday Peter Crawford
and wife determined to give their
children a grand present. They had
invited Gilbert, the eldest; Hiram, the
second born; John third youngest son,
and their only daughter, Mrs. A. B.
Kellogg, to dinner on that day, and
when the father and mother and child.
rem had assembled around the table
the old gentleman made known his in
tentions.. Himself and wife desired
heir children to accept with fathers
and mother'sl0ve certain gifts of lands.
He held in his hands four warranty
deeds to real estate valued at SIS, 600
each, making in all the princely sum
of $500, 900, to be divided equally
among their children. As he spoke he
laid at four different plates the papers
mentioned. OF course they were ac-
Mi. Crawford's actions may be con-
sidered singular, but he says he knows
no good reason Why he shonh not de-
vide his wealth among his children
before ibis own death. 1t will not
lesson their love for him and it will
not make him the poorer. For he has
the farm" left, and that is worth
$3.50, 600. It is situated upon the
Riverside road, just beyond Silver-leaf
grove. Mr.. Crawfords youngest son,
John, is member Of the present board
of county commissioners.
