MISCELLANEOUS.
MIICCLII1f1I LOODe
RECOMME ENDED.

We have just received October 1879 communica-
ton from nearly every druggist in New England,
and the testimony is universally in favor of SAN
FoRD's RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH. We believe
there never was remedy SO popular wherever
known, and certainly we feel that never was one
more deserving of praise. Founded upon correct
scientific principles and calculated by the most ac-
complished physicians to meet the severest forms of
Catarrb the made by it have not only been nu-
merous but so remarkable to excite public atten-
ton and cause the sale to exceed tenfod that of any
similar remedy ever before compounded.
While many are anxious to make public their tes-
timony in favor of the RADICAL CURE, others-and
among this number may be found many of our most
respected citzens-dislike to become publicly ident-
fed with so loathsome disease. Hence, in the fol-
lowing case unable to give the name, but are
permitted to state the severity and condition OF the
case before and after using the RADICAL CURE, and
also that the gentleman occupies responsible office
in one of our State institutions. We quote:-
81 would not for the world permit nv name to be
used, although have no doubt it would be of bene
hit to many now suffering as / have suffered; but
give you brief statement ofmy case:-
"For two years 4 have taken bromide of
pOtassa and bromide of ammonia every
day Il never passed n single might with
out getting up once or twice 10 free my
throat from the matter that had dropped
.MtO ~ uunAH9 sAcCps anu nnshAy AVuSHcu
during all this time. Since taking the
RADICAL CURE have taken no potas-
sa or ann, Onta. have slept sOundIy every
might without uueasiness or distress; not a
particle of matter has dropped into my
throat during sleep and every symptom of
a cough has left me.''
wonderful result truly, all will say. who know or
realize the extent and severity of this case The
gentleman has had eighteen bottles This must sat-
sy the scepcal and there is great merit in the RAD
ICAL CURE. Its mode OF preparation is new and Or
ginal. Ignoring the old practices and remedies, Dr.
his method to be the only proper and never falling

POETRY.
The Honest Man.
BY GEORGE HERBERT.

Who is the honest man2
He that doth still and strongly good pursue,
To God, his neighbor and himself most true;
Whom neither force nor frowning can
Unpin, or wrench from giving all their due.
Whose honesty is not
So loose easy that ruffing wind
Can blow away, or glittering look it blind;
Who rides his sure and even trot
While the world now rides by, now lags behind.
Who, when great trials come,
Nor seeks nor shuns them, but doth calmly stay
I'LL he the thing and the example weigh;
All being brought into sum,
What place or person calls for, he doth pay.
Whom none can work or woo
To use in anything a trick slight;
Far above all things, he abhors deceit;
His words, and works, and fashion, too,
All of piece, and all are clear and straight.
Who never melts or thaws
At close temptationsl Wheu the day is done
His goodness sets not, but in dark can run;
The sun to others writeth laws
And is their virtue; virtue is his sun.

Hats and Bonnets.

A physician Of q London hospital
writes to the British Medical Record:
.'There is no recognized reason why, of
late years, neuralgia of the face and
scalp should have increased SO much in
the female sex, as compared with our
own. There is no doubt that it is one of
the most common OF female maladies-
one of the most painful and difficult Of
treatment. 1t is also q cause Of much
mental depression, and leads more often
to habits OF intemperance than any
other. This growing prevalence of neu-
ralgia may to some extent be referred
to the effects of cold upon the terminal
branches Of the nerves distributed to the
skin; and The reason why men are less
subject to IL than women may to a great
extent, l think, be explained by the
much greater protection afforded by the
mode in which the former cover their
heads when they are In the open air. 1t
may be observed that the surface of the
head which is actually covered in man
is at least three times that which fash.
ion allows to woman; indeed, the
points OF contact between the hat OF
bonnet and the head in the latter are sc
irregular as practically to destroy any
projection which might otherwise be af-
forded.

A wonderful Wheat Country.
lFrom the Portland Oregonian.l


We have been in the habit of suppos-
ing that the Wallamet Valley was the
greatest wheat growing country on the
habitable globe, and have telt like in
dulging in an indefinite amount of vain
glorious boasting over the record OF
fields producing fifty bushels or more
to the acre, and whole farms averaging
thirty-five or forty bushels. But our
beautiful valley and our famers must
look to their laurels henceforth. From
a gentleman OF undoubted veracity,
caretulness and accuracy, we re-
ceiye some information concerning
wheat raising in Eastern Wash
ington Territory which surpasses
the best showing we remember TO have
seen in this part of the country.
@, Mailer, living near the base OF the
Blue Mountains, in Walla Walla Valley,
in 1873, raised on sixty acre field
1920 bushels of wheat, an average oil
sixty-seven bushels to the acre; and in
1875, from a sixty acre tract, 3,420
bushels, or ffty-seven bushels to the
acre.
Mr.. Masterson, residing four miles
south OF Walla Walla, raised on ten
acres $50 bushels-85 bushels to the acre.
Mr.. Kennedy, whose farm is on Dry
| Creek, six miles from Walla Walla,
harvested 5,252 bushels from $50 acres
81 bushels average; and this was a
volunteer crop-that is the second crop
from one sowing.
These crops, says our informant. were
produced on ordinary wheat land; land
that is considered good, "but no better
than hundreds of thousands of acres
lying vacant in Walla Walla and Whit
man counties; especially north OF Snake
River, where there is country vast
enough to produce more than 25,000,000
bushels per annum, and where failure
has never been known"

A GOVERNMENT RAILWAY.
Novelties Of the New Plan Of Cheap Transporta.
tiOn to the SeabOard,

General Hurlput, Of Illinois, Monday
introduced bill for cheap transpOrta-
tion which contains many novel feat
ures. 1t is an attempt to adopt some of
the leading features of the Belgian Gov
ernment railway system to our institu-
tions. The bill contemplates building a
double track freight railroad from New
York to Chicago, Council Bluffs and st.
Louis. The novelty is in the financial
plan, which is to have Government guar
antee interest at $4,000 per mile, for
which a mortgage is to be given to the
United States. The United States is to
own the mortgage, and is also tt, guar
antee interest on 1000 miles Of con-
struction bonds, for which mortgage
is to be given of the entire equipment.
The balance Of the money, $50, 900 mile,
is to be raised by construction bonds or
stock certificates. There are to be no
stockholders. Five commissioners are
to be appointed by the Government, who
are to have control of the stock and
bonds. The plan is to pay all stock Ger.
tificates within the life of the bonds, and
to leave the railroad at the end of thirty
years absolutely free, in the hands of
the Government.-[Washington dispatch
