Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. DAIN in the right side, under the
 edge of the ribs, increases onp pres sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder-blade, and it frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mis- taken for a rheumatism in the arm. The stomach is affected with loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels in general are costive, sometimes alter native with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sensation in the back part. There is generally a considerable loss ofmemory, accompanied witha pain ful sensation of having left undone something which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is some times an attendant. The patient complains ofweariness and debility; he is easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he complains of a prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exercise would be bene- ficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every rem edy. Several of the above symp- toms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them ex- isted, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the LIVER to have been extensively deranged.
 AGUE AND FEVER.
 DR. c. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them A FAlR TRIAL. .,
 For all Bilious homogeneous, and as a simple purgative, they are un- equaled.

fore turn their attention more to the production of fast walking horses, both for the saddle and general draught. The business would pay handsomely, for the utility and value ot such horses would soon be appreciated, thus creating steady demand, which would not likely be diminished, for the next half century at least. On the farm slow walking horse does not do half the work that a rapid walker is able to accom- plish. In towns and cities where draught horses are used in the truck, cart, dray, etc, it is the same; not half the work is per- formed by the slow walker, who crawls along at snail's pace, and when drawing load cannot be galvanized into a rapid motion. As traveller, both under saddle and in harness, the slow walker is a nuisance. No matter what work Ee is engaged in, time and money are lost to the owner every day that he lives. The sooner, therefore, the whole tribe is cart ed to the glue factory the better for our present progressive age. The Rural World wisely says:
 Breeders should pay attention to this matter. In selecting a stallion to breed from, by all means select one that walks fast. A slow walking stallion will be likely to get slow-walking colts; while the stallion that has long, rapid, spirited stride, will be like ly to beget colts of similar action.
 "Then there is Q great deal in breeding to horse with spirit or ambition. These cold blooded horses will beget cold -blooded colts. The nearer you can ap- p.oach the thoroughbred, even for obtaining fast walker, the better. There is game there, and spirit and endurance, and staml- na and style. There are the neat bony heads, the prominent eyes, the small ears, the capacious nos trils, the large lungs and chests, the will developed muscle, the bones as dense as ivory.
 "Even for walkers, then, get the nearest to thoroughbred pos sible, and the same for trotters, and of course the same for run ners. You have then horses fit for any company and any pur- pose-to haul the blow, or buggy, or carriage, or to carry you upon their backs. Breed horses that you will not be ashamed to let your friends see."

TEMPTATION.

While il is true that no one can escape
temptation entirely, there is no doubt
that he can largely modify its influence.
The temptations which inhere in a mans
moral make up he cannot wholly run
away from, how much soever lie may
desire it, because it is evil in him, as
disease is in the tainted blood. But he
can largely modify its action and lessen
its virulence. One way to do this is to
keep himself from sights and sounds and
surroundings which infiame his passions
and sharpen the edge of his appetites.-
If his temptation is in the direction of
stimulants, then let him avoid the sight
and smell of liquor and the companion
ship of those who drink. So, whatever
his weakness, let him keep beyond the
reach of whatever can penetrate him at
that point. The Indian method of fight
ing it is an excellent one in spiritual
warfare. The soldier of Christ should
keep himself under cover as much as he
can. good deal of lodging is alIowa-
BILE in contest with Satan. '.Discre-
ton is.the better part of valor," ar times
and it is better to beat mastery retreat
than to have your soul captured bodily.
Aman who is morally weak at any point,
and who nevertheless, persistently ex-
poses that point to attack, commits the
gravest of sins. When the great adver-
sary was striving to tempt Jesus to ex-
pose himself needlessly,t to peril, he said,
''It is written thou shalt not tempt the
Lord thy God. ."-Golden Rule.

JOIN TIE CHURCH.

The Baptist Union Efforts as follows
under the above caption:
"Why? To.work, bear burdens, give
testimony for truth, grow in grace
Christianity, is social, cumulative, eco
nomical, aggressive, and organization is
Indispensable to conserve its purposes
Without union of resources, little can
be done or enjoyed. Selfish persons
seek isolation; the generous join hands
with the others to do heavy work for the
lost. Shirks dislike church life, and
steal spiritual crumbs from the tables
which others spread, suck little nur
ture from the fruits of others planting
They often excuse their conduct by ac-
cusing churches of faults they do not
bear, to cover the real cause, selfishness
stinginess, laziness, which shirks respon
sibility, expense, restraint and regular
work. Churehism is idolatry, but the
use of churches to preach the gospel
and save the world, a necessity. 1t is
all wrong to nurse a church for its own
sake, as it would be foolish to build mill
to conserve itself, The mill is for work,
the church is for work; a means to an
end, an army conquest sacrificing itself
to win. 1t is an imperative duty to work
in a church, and pnt all possible vigor
into it, that it may rescue the lost
Churches are armies, and every believer
should enter the ranks and report for
duty. For that very purpose they are
left on earth.

A VALUABLE WORK.

The Centennial History Of the United
States, from the Discovery Of the Ameri-
can Continent to the Close Of the First
Century Of American Independence By
James ID. HcCabe, Author Of "a Manual
Of General History" ''The Great Repaid
lie" Etc, Etc. D.
1t is a well known fact that the great
mass of our people are compelled to
rely, for their knowledge of the history
of their country, upon the outline works
intended for the use of schools, which,
by their very nature, are brief, designed
for the comprehension of children, and
in every way unsuited for the adult
mind. There has long been felt genu-
inc want of a history of the United
States, covering the whole period from
the discovery of the Continent to the
present day, and presenting in a succinct
and comprehensive form the history of
our country through its various periods,
from a higher and more thoughtful
standpoint than would be proper in a
school history. This demand we are
happy to say is satisfactorily met In ''The
CentennialHistory of the United States"
a work which is evidently destined to
take rank as the Standard History of our
country. The author, James Z. McCabe,
is an able and well known historical
writer.
We most heartily commend this work
to our readers. 1t is no dry mass of de-
tails, no bombastic effort to infiame the
national pride, but is a clear, vivid, and
brilliant narrative of the events of our
history, from the discovery of the Amer
lean Continent to the present day. 1t
gives a most interesting account of the
Indians of North America, from the time
of the coming of the white man. The
voyage of Columbus, the explorations
of the different nations of Europe, and
the wanderings of the Spanisrds in search
of gold and immortal youth, are told
with graphic power. The story of the
Revolution is related with all the interest
of romance; then follows a clear and
succinct account of the formation of the
Federal Constitution, the Second War
with England, the Mexican War, and the
events of our history up to the COM
mencement of the Civil War. The His
tory of the Civil War is related with
intense vigor, and with strict fidelity to
truth. The author writes throughout
with calmness and impartiality, and
pleads the canse of no section or party.
The book contains an Appendix, giving
an account of the approaching Interna-
tional Centennial Exhibition.
1t is comprised in one large and hand.
some volume, of 925 pages, and contains
442 fine engravings on steel and wood.
The book is issued by the National Pub
fishing Co., of Philadelphia, whose i'm
print is guarantee of the excellence OF
the workmanship. The price is low,
considering the character of the work,
and each subscriber is presented with
handsome lithographic engraving of the
Centennial Exhibition Buildings and
Grounds. 1t is sold by subscription only,
and the publishers want agents in every
county. ---

the bill, and hoped the Senate of the
United States would not decline to make
the small appropriation asked for. He
thought the argument of the Senator
from Delaware (Mr. BayarO premature,
as this was not a bill to prevent the sale
of liquor.
The amendment of Mr.. Bayard was re-
jected.
Mr.. Morrell, of Me-, said while the
whole question regulating the sale of in
toxicating drinks belonged primarily to
the States, he could see that this bill was
for the good of the whole country, and
the inquiry proposed should be made
The government authorized the manu-
facture and Importation of alcoholic
liquors, and surely Congress had the
right to inquire into a subject which
brought revenue to the government
The inquiry should be made as to the
moral, social, and economic aspect of
the liquor traffic. The question was not
a new one at all. At the close of the
Revolutionary War, and for two or
three decades after, the people of this
country drank more liquor per capita
than those of any country on the face
of the earth, and whoever would take
the pains to look into the history, would
see that it was in consequence of the
government raising a revenue from alco-
holic liquors. In the year 1900 there
were 13, 900 retail licenses issued, and
intemperance grew so that it soon came
pass that we were denominated over the
civilized world as nation of drunkards.
When the government of Great Britain
encouraged the importation and manu-
facture of alcoholic liquors, retail shops
were opened, crime was increased and
the prisons were filled. In this country
100, 900, 600 gallons were manufactured
annually.
BY Mr.. Sherman-Besides the crooked
whiskey, Oaughter.)
Mr.. Morrill, (continued) asked what
became of this great quantity? 1t was
used by 40, 600. 900 people, and by it they
were poisoned. Pauperism, crime, beg
gary, want and death was the result
Three fourths of the pauperism was at
trlbutable directly or indirectly to the
use of intoxicating liquors. Congress
had the right to inquire into the matter.
The use of liquor was the gigantic crime
of crimes in this country

the 25th; yeas 81, nays 2O.-N. Y. o.

LITTLE FEET.

In castle hall or cottage homes.
Wherevtr guileless childhood roams.
Oh, there is nothing half so sweet
As busy tread of little feet.
The signing breeze, the oceans roar,
The purling rill, the organs power,
All stir the soul, but none so deep
As tiny tread of little feet.
When forth we go at early morn,
To meet the world and brave its scorn,
AdOwn the garden walk so neat
We see the prints of little feet.
At eve when homeward we repair,
With aching limb and brow of care,
The voices sing out clear and sweet
Then comes the rusii of little feet,
The knives are last, the dishes stray.
The tools are spirited away,
And when we 90 the lost TO seek,
We take the trail of little feet.
But when the angel Death hath come,
And calls these flOwrets from our home
Oppressive silence reigns complete.
We miss the sound of little feet.
Then tools are safe, no dishes stray,
No doors go slamming all the day;
But, OH 'twould give us pleasure sweet
To hear again those noisy feet
Soft night has come, all are asleep;
Yes all but ire, vigil keep;
Hush, hush, my heart and cease to beat
Was that the step of little feet.
Yes, mother; twas the softened tread
of him you miss and mourn as dead,
And often in your sweetest sleep
You'll dream of hearing little feet.
And when his pilgrimage is DER,
And you approach that blissful shore,
The first to run your soul to greet
Will be your darling's little feet.

THE ROAD TO REAL RUIN.

As long as men are what they are, some
honest, and others dishonest; some fru
gal and others profuse; some gentle and
others rapacious; some wise and others
foolish; some strong and others weak, it
will be impossible to abolish the distinc-
ton between rich and poor. 1t could
only be done by annihilating all wealth.
If an equal division of goods and money
could be made for one day, the day after
would see that equality destroyed
Within a week thousands would be COM
planning of the scarcity of money. The
property might be divided again and
again, until everything eonsumable was
eaten up, and there could still be as
much to be said for imitation as there can
be to-day. No more and no less
Imitation is the highway to poverty
and suffering among the masses. Il was
so in France under Laws non-axportable
currency, and in the same country un-
der the assignats. 1t was so in the Gays
of Continental money, and it is so to-
day. Misery for the toiling millions has
followed in the wake of every great
debasement of the coin, or deluge of
paper money. History proclaims this
TACT to all who will heed her teachings
While the savings of the past are being
consumed or wasted, there may be
treacherous show of prosperity, but in
the end the bubble bursts. We have had
taste of the poison, aud it ought to be
enough. The effects of another draught
will not be so easily recovered from.-N.
