Two Foes of Health.

Cold and damp are ipimical to health,
and we generally have an unwholesome
combination of the two at this season.
They penetrate the skin and integuments
and affect the mucular, glandular and
nervous organizations, producing rhcu-
matism, neuralgia, chills and fever, and
where there is II tendency to dyspepsia.
or liver complaint, provoking an attack
OF indigestion or billiousness. The best
advice that can be given under such cir
cumstances is to keep the external sur
face Of the body warmly clothed, and to
keep the internal organs in vigorous
working order with the most wholesome
and genial of all tonics, Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitter. Gradually but constantly
this famous invigorant is superseding the
adulterated liquors Of commerce, rs Il
medicinal stmulant and corrective, in

harmless substitute for the fiery stimu-

in this regard it surpasses all the unmed-
icated products Of the still, domestic or

AN AUDACIoUs BEAR.-Some time ago
a goat belonging to II. Brehmer, who lives
on the Todd place about two miles from
town, was missed. From tracks seen in
the neighborhood at that time it was CON
jectured that bear had carried the goat
off, but when the goat returned few
days afterward, it was then evident that
it had not been carried Off, but probably
frightened away by the bear. One even
ing last week Mr.. Brehmer's wife had
occasion to go to the chicken-house across
the road, taking a lantern with her.
When crossing the road she was greatly
frightened at meeting a bear dropping
the lantern and screaming at the top of
her voice quickly returned to the house,
when her husband rushed out, gun in
hand, just in time to see bruin disappear
ing in the darkness, but too late to get n
shot. That bear is altogether too familiar
and certainly needs killing.

stand among "those who talk "-an evil
disposed person might add " too much" )"

for a man who has already been men,

How Will 1t Affect Christianity ,

1t is not safe yet to venture a deliberate
opinion as to how the unfortunate case of
scandal now before the public will termin-
ate. There can be but one right wish in
regard to the matter, and although the vim
dication OF Mr.. Beecher would stamp his
accuser as one of the most vigorous of
slanderers, that result would be preferable
to finding that under the guise OF minis
ter of the Gospel man who by his minis
try has made his name known almost all
over the world, has been but wolf in
sleeps clothing. For the sake of our faith
In human nature 1t would be far better
that the accuser In this case be proved Ell
Their insane or a false witness against his
neghbor.
Still, justice should be done without fear
or favor, and the accused If guilty ought to
be convicted and forced to leave the work
he has dishonored. To cloak and conceal
his crime, II crime he has committed, in
order that Christianity may not suffer,
would be false to Christianity ITSELF If
the man highest on the walls of Zion has
been untrue to his trust let him be hurled
thence, that his fall may be warning to
those who would lightly venture upon the
performance OF those solemn duties 10
which the true Waterman is called.
That the conviction Of a Christian minis
ter of such misconduct as is charged upon
Mr.. Beecher would affect the cause of Chris
tianity In any essential degree can hardly
be believed by that person to whom the
Christian religion is plan of Gods Or
daining. The eventual triumph of that re-
ligion over everything opposing ii is an ar
ticle Of the Christians faith. It's advance
will be measured by the faith and perse-
verance of those WHOSE work II is to carry
forward the evangelization OF the world.
In this work every true Christian has a
part. The true Christian will lose none of
his faith in his religion because his fellow
worker has proved falthless, but will en-
deavor with all the more earnestness to
demonstrate TO the world that the man who
has fallen does not prove by his fall any
weakness in the religion he professed, but
proves rather his own weakness.
The scotfer will exult Of course. The ir-
religious will boast that they do not set
themselves up TO be be tier than other men.
Flippant tongues will rattle and light
heads will wag If Mr.. Beecher is convict
ed. The opportunity will be a happy one
for all these. But the sensible people,
those who judge things by their merits,
and go beyond outward seeming, these
people, whether they be in favor of or OPP
posed 10 Christianity, will not be affected
against that system OF religion though
Beecher were to fall every year. He
through whom Christianity was revealed

Caucus to elect delegates to district

IL, will be held at the old meeting house in
the centre of the town.
Though ii may be so strongly disput-
ed, it cannot be etlectually controyerted
but that Brigham Young, the "He Boss
Mormon went from this town and, as re-
ported In the Record last week, from near
sadawga village. The spot where the
house Stood is plainly visible. But there
is much dispute as to his birth being at
that place. A large and very respectable
number OF citizens claim his birthplace
to be only few rods west of the centre of
the town. Hon. H. VIM or Henry Good
now can point out the spot.
