A Sound Health Maxim.

"Order is heavens first law" This
great maxim applies with peculiar force
to the discharge Of the vital functions.
Disease inevitably supervenes upon ply
steal irregularity, just as calamity is sure
to follow want of system and punctualli-
ty i'm the affairs of life. But while it IL
next to impossible to overcome settled
mental habits Of disorder, it is quite feast
BILE to remedy habitual irregularities Of
the body. Discipline the unruly organs
by wise and timely medication, and health
will be established upon permanent ba-
sis. Although there are many remedies
prescribed for this purpose, there is not
one among them can compare in direct
ness and prOmptitude of action with Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. For every dis
order affecting the bowels, liver and
stomach, and for the numerous sympathet-
ic nervous ailments to which alimentary
or bilious disturbances give rise, the Bit
tiers are most reliable specific. Their
wondrous efficacy is attributable to the
fact that they first remove the cause of
such maladies, irregularity, and then by
their tonic operation repair the loss of
physical substance produced by sickness.
Constipation, biliousness, dyspepsia,
heartburn, sleeplessness, intermittent fe-
vers, rheumatism and nervous tremors al
ways succumb to the operation of this
safe and potent medicine. A regular
habit of body, good appetite, sound sleep
and easy digestion are among the bless
ings which its use confers. 1t invigor-
ates, relieves depression of mind, and by
promoting complete assimilation, mater
Tally assists in covering the angles and
hollow places Of an attenuated, shrunken
frame with firm, healthy flesh.

ANOTHER CLERICAL SCANDAL
About two weeks ago, Rev. w. d.
ORTIZ, of the Evangelical Association,
having charge of the churches of that
denomination in Morgan county, called
at this Office, and said he was on his
way to conference, to be held at Pitts
burg, and kindly offered to forward us
the daily proceedings. Failing to re-
ceive word from him, we naturally con-
Guided that forgetfulness or q press OF
sacred business was the cause. What
was our establishment on Tuesday, to
learn that his wife was in town, max
ing inquiries for him. 1t appears that
she had no suspicion that anything was
wrong, until she received letter writ
ten to him from the conference, inqulr-
ing why he had not come in person, or
at least forwarded his reports. This,
together with the disappearance OF a
young lady from the same neighbor-
hood on the same DAY, aroused her sus-
picions. and, almost distracted, she
started in search of him.
fit Is true that he has thus foully
acted, there is no punishment too hard
for him, and if he revisits the county or
the locality which he has outraged, we
should not stand sponsor for his safety.

CRUELTY TO WoMAN.-The man who
would strike woman, whether in pas
sion or under the influence of liquor, is
not only physical but moral coward.
What, then, is the estimate that should
be placed upon him who cruelty whips
her whom at the alter of marriage he
has solemnly vowed to ''love, cherish
and protect" Language is inadequate
to portray our contempt for such ar in
dividual. The "merciful master is kind
to his BEAST" but while philanthropists
all over the country are laboring to
ameliorate, and properly too, the con-
dition of poor dumb brutes, there are
loving, patient, submissive women en-
during brutality which, if inflicted upon
a dumb brute, would consign the per
petrator to the penitentiary. Why is
it so? Why should it continue? Be
cause, loving and patient, she would
shield him with her own life.
These thoughts were suggested by
two incidents which have transpired in
Rock Gap and Timber Ridge districts
within the past week. Parties inaamed
with reports of cruelty to wives on the
part of husbands, visited their houses
after night, took them from their beds,
with the intention of teaching them a
lesson in hydropathic treatment; which
in the case of man named Miller, on
Timber Ridge, was a decided success.
After being dipped into Bohrcr's mill
dam, the water of which is said to be as
cold as the Arctic sea, the victim went
home to thaw the icicles that tringed his
scanty garment, and reflect on the eff
cacy of the wat er-cure.
We presume the principal actors in
these nocturnal dramas have considered
well the liabilities they have incurred,
and can manage their own affairs with
out any gratuitous advice from us. In
dividaally, our opinion is, that if those
parties were guilty they deserved what
they got, but if innocent, were treated
nnjustly and with freezing eoolness.-
Morgan Mercury.

STRAWBERRIES AND PEAcHEs.-The
New York Express has the following {:
"With bracing snow storm in pro-
gress, it is pleasant to reflect that straw
berries are generally due about the
first week in April, and that they can
even now be obtained for the triaing
sum of $lS per quart. The earliest
consignments of strawberries are from
Savannah, and usually sell from $3.50
down to 81 per quart, cheapening as
the spring days lengthen, until Jersey
men can deluge the market with them.
The importance of peaches come some
what in the same order as those of
strawberries-that is, first from Savan-
nah, next from Charleston, then from
Norfolk, them from the ports of Dele
ware, and finally, in the fall season,
from the rich flats of New Jersey-each
succeeding week opening new source
of supply further 10 the North. This
year even the Southern States have ex-
perienced climate severity and the usual
date Of the receipt of fruit will be de-
ferred, and at present it is only the
wealthy or the extrayagant who can in
dulge in the luxury of fruit 1t is re-
lated that two week ago an order was
filed Cor one quart of strawberries at
$13, and two ripe peaches at SO, for a
wedding breakfast. There is something
like revival of Midas and the golden
touch in the story, for the fruit may be
said to have been literally worth almost
its weight in gold"

WHAT ILLINOIS WIVES CAN Do
The married women of Illinois acquired
by the law OF 1874 the right to do al
most everything. They can sue and
be sued in their own names. They can
blessed privilege-sue their own par
ticular tyrants. When husband de-
serts his wife, the latter has the custo-
DIV of her children. If the husband
stays out of the State year and does
nothing to support the wife during
that time, or if he is imprisoned in the
penitentiary, the wife can, upon OBJ
tanning an order from a court OF record,
manage his property absolutely, The
wife is no: at all liable for the husbands
debts incurred before marriage, and
only in exceptional circumstances for
those incurred. afterward. She can
manage any business independently,
except in case of partnership, which
she cannot enter without her husbands
consent. A wife's earnings cannot be
touched by her husband or his credl-
tors. A married woman can acquite,
possess and sell real and personal prop
erty as freely as married man can.
This list of abilities is expected to be
largely increased the present year SO
as to include suffrage and other inciden-
tails.
