Where Doe. 1t Come From.

Pints and quarts of milky catarrhal dis
charges. Where does it all come from? The
mucous membrane, lining the chambers of the
nose, and its little glands, diseased, SO that
they draw from the blood its liquid and ex-
posture to the air changes it into corruption.
This lifc-lquid was to build up the system but
it is extracted and the system is weakened by
the loss. To cure, gain flesh and strength by
using DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
which also acts directly upon these glands,
correcting them, applying DIR. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy with DIR. Perce's Nasal Douche, the
only method of reaching the upper cavities
where the discharge accumulates and comes
from.

Balky Horses.

Yelling and whipping on the part of the
| trainer or driver, over loading, sore Shout
ders or ill-fitting collars-these are the
causes that make horses balk. But if you
have horse or colt that balks, while
cannot. without a personal knowledge of
the subject, tell you what to do, l can
tell you what not to do-never whip. If
he won't go, let him stand still and think
it over, and after a few moments refiec-
ton, and few losses of his head, he will
very often go on of his own accord. Or,
if this does not answer get out of the
wagon and pat him, and talk to him
kindly. A horse is very susceptible to
kindness; and l have known more than
one quite vicious horse gentled into good
behavior by a few pats from lady's
gloved hand on the moist neck and veined
muZZle Sometimes it is well 10 loosen a
strap or start a buckle. / have known
the mere act of unchecking and recheck-
ing the animal to answer the purpose. 1t
took his attention off in another direc-
ton, you see, changed the current of his
thought, and broke up his purpose and
determination TO resist. For this
same reason, an apple or q bunch of
grapes from the roadside, OF a handful of
| oats or few kernels of corn, will often
accomplish what an hour of beating could
never effect. The truth is, man must
govern himself before he can hope to gov
passion, his brain charged with heated
blood, his eyes blazing with rage, is not
in a condition to think clearly; and it is
Just this thinking clearly that is, above
| all else, needed in directing and control
ling horses Hence it is that contact with
horses, and an actual experience in teach
| ing them, is one of the finest disciplines
man can have. He grows to love the colt
he is teaching; and no nature is utterly
depraved in which is going on the exer-
else of affection, no matter how humble
the object of it may be. His employment
makes it necessary for him to think; and
this keeps intellect, which might other
wise have no development, alive. The
language of the stable is not, as many pi-
Gus and ignorant people imagine, all slang.
| Care and anxiety are felt in the gIoOms
room, and consultations are he'd upon the
issue of which the health and safety of
valuable property depend. Plans are
formed, and methods of procedure
adopted, upon which fame and vast sums
OF money come and go. Faults of ma
ture and errors of education and practice
are corrected; and the trainer discovers
that in schooling Gods creatures he is
! being schooled himself. Thus in all
| other branches of honorable industry the
/ horseman discovers that he is the point
| from which one current goes forth and
| another enters in. He bestows, and he
receives; he educates, and is educated !;
and the life which so many thoughtless
people despise closes, as in the case of
Hiram Woodruff-the upright in art and
act-with honor, and a fame which can
fail only when kindness toward animals
and integrity among men are regarded as
of no account.-Wurrag's " Perfect Horse"

The Ell Dorado of ScOundrelism.

The Boston Globe (iepublican) takes
for its text 1.-THE Ell Dorado of Scoun-
drelism," and says:
"Our country is a nominal Republic;
but in its Revenue laws, its 'Sanborn
Contracts its system of spies, informcrs,
and moieties, it is, to the business man,
one of the most distressing of despot-
isms We wonder that any
shrcwd pickpockets and housebreakers
should pursue their calling under the
watchful eyes of the police. Their gains
are VIGOROUSLY uncertain, and, on the
whole, do not amount to the wages of an
honest and skillfhl mechanic. Besides,
their occupation is illegal, and subjects
them, at any moment, to edge of penny
cord and vile reproach.' What fools these
sneaks and ruffians are, A humorist
might suppose that all they have to do
j. TO go to the Secretary OF the Treasury,
and, by a little management, get permits

Heath and the Dedham turnpike the

laws would be tolerated in no despotic
government in Europe. They are simply,

COME, AND LET Us REASON TOGETHER.
To the afflicted in body we offer few
words of plain, practical reasoning. No
matter under what form of sickness you
labor there is one great truth you should
ever keep in mind, viz. All disease oripi-
mates in an impure condition of the blood.
Purify that, and the disease must depart,
for it has nothing to feed on; but you can
not purify the blood by the use of poison
Gus drugs and exhaustive stimulants; the
relief which these afford is temporary and
deceptive, leaving you worse off at every
interval. The best Blood Purifier ever dis
covered is DIR. WALKERS FAMOUS VIM
EGAR BITTERs, compounded of simple
herbs. No matter how hopeless your case
may seem, try the VINEGAR BITTERs, and
a few draughts will convince you of their
virtue. DIR. Walker, the discoverer of
this priceless remedy, had been given
up to die by the physicians and is now
sound and healthy man from their
use. SO
