It is fair to assume that of the forty

strating the Importance OF headache to

that ailing oughs to be moved up little

fed with some more jaw. breaking name

will not quarrel with the writer upon the
subject since he has been generous

A Simple Remedy for Ctnders I'm the
Eve,

Persons travelling by railway, are
subject to continued annoyance from the
a, ing ciGders. On getting into the
eyes they are not only painful for the
mement, but are often the cause of long
suffering, that ends in tota!
loss of sight. A very single
and effective cure is within the
reach of every one, and would
prevent much suffering and ex
pense, were it more gener-
ally known. 1t is simply one
or two grain of flax-seed. These
may be placed in the eye with
out injury or pain to that deli
cate organ, and shortly they begin to
swell and dissolve glutin Gus substance
that covers the ball OF the eye, envelop-
ing any foreign substance that may be IN
1t The irritation or cutting of the
membrane is thus prevented, and the
annoyance may soon be washed out. A
dozen of these grams stowd away in
the vest pocket may Prove, in an emer.
gency, worth their number in gold.

LEE, JACKSON AND STUART.
The Three Southern Heroes-The
Qualities Ofuhe Great Confederate
dam ma uderH.

j. E sten Cooke in Weekly Times.
The death of OF the famous cavalry
man produced deep and painful senss
ton, in some degree akin to that pro-
duced by the death ot jackson. The
Southern people indeed had become &C.
customed to couple together the three
great names, Lee, jackson, and Stuart,
valuing each for his peculiar qualities.
No compari on is intended to be made
between these three distinguished sold
iers, but it is interesting to notice how
sharply contrasted they were In charac-
ter, and how peculiarly each was fitted for
the sphere IN which he moved and his
special functions. Lse, the head and
front OF the struggle, was the born
COMMUNICATIVE fitted for the con-
ception of great campaigns, ever wide
awake, a man of august dignity by ma
ture, calm, suave, grave, taking good and
evil fortune with the same imposing
serenity; in person, one OF the most
noble and graceful men OF his epoch, and
the finest rider in the Southern army;
in character, simple, pure, patient,
binding to himself both the love and
respect of men. jackson was the in
