An Unanswerable Argument.

The strongest argument which can be urged
againsa the advisapility of administering such
corrosive and ve-destroying poisons as arsenic
aud quinine for intermltted and remittcnt fevers,
is the vastly superior success the prevention and
cure ofssvch diseases of medicina which is the
very antlpode of the above named drugs, both in
respect of its composition and the results wrought
by it. Such medicine is Hostetters Stomach.Bit
tiers, durely Vegetable preparation which not only
eradicafes with wonderful promptitude every trace
offever and ague,and kindred tydes Of malarious
disease, from the system but is certain preventive
OF all maladies begoten of m!asma tainted sair and
water. These results mineral anti febrile remedies
do not effect with csrtaiuly. ane their continued
use entails consciousness highly pernicious to tine
system. The Biters, on the contrary, not only aor
speedy relief, but establishing health on a per-
manent basis.

DECALCoMANIE. This is the name of
comparatively new art that is attracting
considerable attention at the present time.
! consists in transferring pictures which
have been printed upon paper II high and
beautiful cOlors to any object one may wish
to ornament, such as fans, work boxes,
vases, flower pots, articles of furniture, &c.
When transferred these pictures look as il
painted upon the article ornamented, and
they are much ulore attractive and beauti-
full than they would be if painted with
brush, unless executed by very skillfui
artist; indeed this beautiful art offers a
complete substitute for the process of hand
painting for most purposes. The pictures
embrace great variety of subjects, such
as heads, landscapes, animals, insects,
flowers, comic figures, &c. The art is easily
acquired, and chill r even soon become
experts. Transferring these pictures is a
charming pastime tor old or young. and
serves to cultivate taste fer the beauti
full. We have received from j. L. Patten
4 Co., 1872 William Street, New York, who
are dealers in transfer pictures, some hand
some samples of their goods These gen.
tlemen will, for the small sum of ten cents,
send full instructions in this beautiful art.
together with ten handsome samples OF the
pictures, or for City cents they will send
one hundred attractive pictures,

lY Represented.
Encouragement for rhe Temperance
Cause.

Sunday, the 10th. was the anniversary
of the birth of Ireland's great temperance
apostle, Father Matthew. and his memory
was honored in Rock Island and Daven-
port by parade of the Roman Catholic
Temperance Societies.
The Rock Island society met at st. 10
seph's church a little after noon, imme-
diateiy after Mass, and, led by Biehls
band, marched through our principal
streets, and then to the foot of Eagle
street, to the ferry landing, where they re-
ceived a large and splendid delegation
from Davenport, among which we're some
200 Cadets OF Temperance, who attracted
mrch attention. These boys, ranging
probably from to IA years of age, are the
pride and hope of the future, and everybody
should encourage them to form strictly total
abstinence habits. 1t is not much use tC
spend any time on the old soakers, though
there were several instances in the pro-
cession of men who had reformed then
habits and thus been enabled to secure
comfortable homes Of their own, and tt
become comfort and blessing to theil
families. But it is not worth while tt
spend much time on the old soakers; they
will die off some time and be out of thu
way. 1t is the boys and the young mer
that should engage the best efforts of thes,
societies, for these boys and young men arr
the future hope of the country.
Noticeable among the people, walking il
the procession, was the fine figure of thu
Rev. Father Flavin, of Davenport, wh'
gives his best efforts, in the church and
in society, to the cause of total abstinence
The total abstinence Catholics may,wel
feel encouraged, by the turnout on Sun
day, to persevere in the good cause il
which they are engaged.
