A French Story.

An episode of life which could happen
nowhere but in Paris A wealthy and
respectable young man, some months
ago, committed suicide by hanging him
self in his bedroom; he left all his for
tune to woman, whose infidelity to him
drove him to despair and death, But the
fortune was leagued conditional on her
keeping the fatal rope and photograph
of the deceased, under a glass case, ON
the chimney of her bedroom; friend
was delegated to visit once a week to see
the condition executed. The unfortunate
woman endeavored first to laugh at the
matter, but became haunted with the
death she caused, and concluded she too
would die in the same way. A few days
ago she handed over all the money to
the poor, and has not since been heard OF,

Normal Schools OF New York.


spent two entire days inspecting the
normal schools in New York, said Lord
Dufferin, of Canada, in speech at OF
towa. We arrived early in the morning
for the purpose of seeing the scholars
assemble for the days work. We were
shown to a large hall four or five times
the size of this one. A bellrang, apiano
struck up, and in three and half min
utes eleven hundred young wemen had
taken their places. We were then en-
tertained by most beautiful singing In
alternate chorus, and that part of the
performance concluded with several OF
these young ladies rising in turn and re-
peating some apophthegm or other quo
tation which had struck them i'll the
previous days reading. This system
had been adopted for the purpose of Civ
ing them confidence as teachers i'll ad-
dressing large audiences.
| We then proceeded to the hall, where
two hundred of them went through their
gymnastic exercises, and lovelier or
more interesting sight no person could
wish to behold than was presented to our
view. From this we proceeded to the
various class rooms, and 1 was certainly
struck beyond the power of expression
by observing how thorough and how
complete was the system of instruction
there administered.
L went into one room where ladies were
receiving instruction in geology, and the
first thing that caught my eye was n spir
tied and accurate drawing, the size of
life-if that is not an Irish bull-of hu
man skeleton. L said "The surgeon
who drew that anatomical figure must
have been as great m artist as a man of
SCIENCE" so complete and so mastery
were the outlines and shading, but the
teacher replied, cone of our young Ia
dies did that" Then L heard them ex-
amined on various subjects.
For instance, they were asked II they
could give any account of Shakespeare.
A young lady got up, and i'll ten minutes
she told me great deal more about
Shakespeare than [ ever knew-and i
imagine than n great many about me
knew-in my life. And so we went on
from astronomy, mathematics, botany,
mythology. In every class was the
same system and the same thorough
ness.
mention this circumstance in order
that those who are interested III thC
bringing up of these younger children
sitting upon my right hand, may be able
to comprehend what enormous advan
tages are open to those who, in the earlier
portion of their lives, and while they are
still school children, fit themselves, as i
were, for passing on to that higher edu
) cation which L have ventured to describ,
to YOU. There can be no doubt thai
every year the secret of successfully ad
ministrating youthful education is bette

Personal of the United States Senate.

The "baby" of the United States Sen
ate is Mr.. Dorsey, who is only thirty
three. The "papa" is General Cameron.
Dorsey, Allison, Oglesby have young
and pretty wives. Hamlin always wears
a dress-coat and never an overcoat. His
colleague, Morrill,, is the signer of the
Maine liquor law. He and Lane of
Indiana met on their way to the Chicago
convention of 1860. 81 am very much
interested in the agriculture Of your
country" said Senator Morrill,; "what
do you do with all this corn Z" "Well,
sir" replied Lane, whose constituents
had probably never heard of a prohibi-
ton law, "we spoil little of it for
bread, and put the rest into whisky.
Flanagan, of Flanagan's Mills, Texas, is
jolly old fellow, who says "whar" and
"thar, and rouses the echoes generally
when he speaks. Robertson wears
jewelry of fabulous value-emerald
sleeve-buttons worth fortune, and dia-
mond studs that would make the idols
of India jealous.

To the Suffering.

An old retired physician, who is candid
enough to tell the truth absut progress,
has declared that the recent discovery by
DIR. Walker, of California, of his herb
remedy, Vinegar Bitters, is one of the
most important in medicine. He has
tested them thoroughly, in his own
family, among his friends, and upon
himself; and he is driven to the conclu-
sion that they possess rare and unex-
celled curative properties. He says OF
them: "They contain no dangerous
drug. They never reduce the patient
never render one liable to take cold
never interfere with the everyday bust
ness OF life-never make their continuous
use a condition of cure, and are adapted
to even the most delicate organization.
They act as kindly ON the tender infant,
the delicate female, or infrm old age, as
ON the vigorous and athletic system; ex'
ercising healthful effects upon every
blood vessel-on the brain, nerves and
lymphatics-on the blood, bile, gastric
juice, ETC., enriching impoverished fluids,
and imparting vigor to mind and body.

SHORT WEIGHT.-The 1mcricaa Gro
Ger informs it's readers that the uninitiated
public have but little idea to what extent
articles put up in packages for sale are
cut short in weight. The evil has so
increased that some remedy must be de
v1sed. 1t is wrong not only to con
sumers, but to all retail dealers who buy
packages of any article and break the
packages for the purpose of retailing
from them. The Grocer recommends q
national law compelling the packer to
put his name upon all his packages, and
making him responsible, under proper
penalties, for the weight of the goods.

No Use of any longer taking the large, repul-
sive, gripping, drastic and nauseous pills. COM
poted of crude and bulky ingredients, and put
up in cheap wood or pasteboard boxes, when
we can, by a careful application of chemical
science, extract all the cathartic and other
medicinal properties from the most valuable
roots and herbs, and concentrate them into a
minute granule, scarcely larger than mustard
seed, that can be readily swallowed by those of
the most sensitive stomachs ard fastidous
tastes. Each of DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Purga-
tive Pellets represents, i'll most concentrated
form, as much cathartic power as is embodied
III any of the large pills found for sale in the
drug stores. From their wonderful cathartic
power, i'll proportion to their size, people who
have not tried them are apt to suppose that
they are harsh or drastic in effect, but such is
not at all the case, the different active medi-
cinal principles of which they are composed
being so harmonized, one by the others, as to
produce most searching and thorough, YET
| gently and kindly operating cathartlc. The
pellets are sold by dealers in Medicines Com

them, they try to be pleased; if anybody

courtesy to be astsnished; if people be-

that this is the way it should be in the
world as well as in the drawing room.

No TIME TO BE Losr.-In the incipien

No TIME TO BE LOST In the incipient
stages of consumption, the first symptoms are
generally a hacking cough, pains in the chest,
difficulty of breathing, or oppression of the
lungs. Something should be done at once to
check the cough, allay and heal the ilTitated
parts. Aliens Lung Basam will break up the
cough in an incredibly short time also prevent
the formation sf tubercles. Where tubercles
are once formed, the disease is hard to cure.
