4" Success is never achieved without merit.
A man may make a poor article and sell it
once, and there being 40, O00, 600 people in the
United States, the sale to each one would be
enough to make a decent fortune. But an
article that holds the field year after year, and
the sales of which increase regularly and ra-
pidly, must have absolute merit.
DR.. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, occupies
our entire eighth page to-day with his various
articles. We admit il, because we know the
Doctor, and know of his articles. We know
him to be a regularly educated physician,
whose diploma hangs On the wall of his Of
fee and we know that he has associated with
him several of the most eminent practitioners
in the country. We know that parties con-
suit him, by mail and in person, from all the
states in the Union every day, and that they
are fairly and honestly dealt with.
This grand result has been accomplished
by two agencies-goOd, reliable articles
articles which, once introduced, work easily
their own way-and splendid business man
agement They have succeeded because they
ought to have succeeded"
If YOU would patrOnize Medicines, scienti'
ficalIv prepared by a skilled Physician and
Chemist, use DR.. Pierce's Family Medicines.
Golden Medical Discovery is nutritious, ton
ic, Alternative, and blOOd-cleansing. and an un'
eGuaIled Cough Remedy; Pleasant Purgatlye
Pellets, scarcely larger than mustard-seeds,
constitute an agreeable and reliable Physlc
Favorite Prescription, a remedy for debili'
tated females; Extract of Smart-Weed, a
magical remedy for Pain, Bowel Complaints,
and an unequaIed Liniment for both human
and horse-fesh while his DR.. Sage's CatarFh
Remedyis known the world over as the great
est specific for Catarrh and Cold in the
Head" ever given to the public. They are
sold by druggists.

SOUTHERN IlluGRATIoM.

Beyond question, southern immigra-
ton is gradually becoming matter Of
increasing Importance. The vast areaof
rich and fertile territory in the various
states that now remains uncultivated, to-
gether with the excellent advantages
which are offered to the thrifty immi-
grant, is beginning to be appreciated.
What is most needed is that class Of inn
migrants who have some little capital,
that is to say sum sufficient to pur-
chase small farms, and who have intelli-
gence enough to work them advantage
ously. The other classes, who have moth
ing either in theway Of capital or indus

To make head cheese, thoroughly
clean the hogs head, which must be split
open put it over the fire, with plenty Of
cold water and a handful Of salt. Boil
until the bones drop out it will require
five or six hours, or perhaps longer, as it
depends on the size of the head. When
done, drain off the broth, take out every
particle Of bone, put the meat in a chop
ping bowl, season with pepper, red and
black, half teacupful Of sweet mario
ram; the same of summer savOry; the
same of sage; teaspoOnful Of powdered
allspice, two of cloves, salt spoonful of
powdered mace. Chop all together as
fine as possible; add half pint Of
the broth and the same Of sharp vinegar;
put in moulds, and when cold, cut in
thin slices.
If brOoms are wet in boiling suds
once week they viii become very tough,
will not cut the carpet, last much lon
ger, and always sweep like new broom.
A very dusty carpet may be cleaned by
setting pail of cold water out by the
door; wet the broom in it, knock it to
get out all the drops, sweep yard Or so,
then wash the broom again as before, and
sweep again, being careful to shake all
the drops off the broom, and not sweep
far at a time. The water may need to
be changed once or twice if the carpet is
very dusty. Snow sprinkled over car
pet and swept off before it has time to
melt and dissolve is also nice for reno
waiting a soiled carpet. MOistened In
dian meal is used with good effect by
some housekeepers.--Heqlth Rcformer.

try, are recommended by the southern
journals to stay away, as there Is no pos
sibility Of success, or even Of making a
bare living, except to those who are will
ing to work. There will soon be con-
vention at New Orleans to devise ways
and means to promote immigration ofthe
right kind. The market prices Of lands
are 50 low that one years good tillage in
either ofour staples, sugar or cotton, will
yield sum per acre equal to present
cost. No staples grown in this or any
other country make such liberal returns
to the farmer. 1t therefore needs just
such action as the convention intends to
take in order to make these lands valu-
able to the welfare Of the south and to
provide a comfortable home and lucra-
tive employment for the vast number Of
intelligent men who are now complain
ing that there is nothing to do.-Nea0

INDIAN POTENTATES.


DR.. Russell writes to the London
Times: The cortege of the Maharajah
of Cashmere and the splendOr of his per-
sonaI adornments caused the impressions
produced by previous coruscatiOns to
fade away. He is a handsome man,
small in stature, but well made, and
more quick in gait and manner than are
Asiatic chiefs generally. He and his
chiefs affect the Sikh Kaleidoscope of
the most becoming of turbans, with its
pretty, rakish set and smart, defiant
brush. AS to his aigrette or plaque, one
can only say that there seemed to be a
light in the air as he turned his head in
talking with the prince. Some Of his
sirdars were almost as brilliant.
Scindia looks a man all.Over, and is in
many ways what is called a fine fellow.
He wanted me to lay out five laks OF
rupees as presents to the prince, and
was with difficulty reduced to half lax
(95, OOO), and he is very liberal in all his
ideas. He has gained good opinions; he
has risked much by his fidelity to the
British government, and he certainly
did not increase his authority among
his own people by the discovery and sur
render of a suggestions Mana Sahib-
heir, in their eyes, of the Peishwas.
Now came very eccentric visitor
the Sultana Jehan, Begun of BhOpal.
She is a G. C. S. L, a descendant of one
of those families which are pushed into
place and power, mostly by British in
influence, after the Pindarees were
stamped down. At II salute of IS
guns were fred, and closed brOugham
drove up to the steps, to which the guard
presented arms. The door was opened,
and out stepped a shawl, supported by a
pairof thin legs, and on the tOpofthe shawl
there was the semblance of a head, but
face there was none, for over the head
there was drawn a silk hood, and from
itdeepended a screen of some sort of stuff,
which completely concealed her features,
which report says are not at all deserv-
ing of such strict retirement, though her
highness is nearly forty, which is old for
India. With her was her daughter-a
figure draped and dressed like the first,
and quite as old to judge from appear
ances, though the lady is only eighteen.
The ladies walked very slowly one after
the other, and were led up the steps as
if they were performing some remarka-
BILE feat.
The last chief who was received was
the Maharaiah Of Rewah, very dignifed
parsonage, very well spoken of by all
who know him. He suffers from some
malady, for which he uses a yellowish
pigment on his face but he has an
agreeable look for all that. His family
claims very high rank in point of ances-
try and antiquity.
