Great men are no bigger or bette"
than the rest of us amid the little
mishaps of life. 1t is a kind of
gloomy comfort to feel that they
sometimes get caught without an
umbrella, and have the same twinges
of rheumatism which bring the
grunts to so many humble homes.

Those who are trying to relieve
the destitute are engaged in good
work; but what we call relief is but
an evasion of the problem before
us, not solution of it. This is
country in which, of all the coun-
tries under the sun, it is shameful
that man able and willing to work
should not find work to support
himself and family. Affairs are in
a bad state, and there is chance
that it may be made worse. The
right and complete relief to the de
serving would be to see that they
had work and could keep them
selves from suffering. We must re-
lieve their suffering, but neither we
nor they can or ought to forget who
are responsible for the present dis
tressing state of affairs.

Death on the Plains.

A letter from Deadwood City, u. T.,
relates the following sad story of suffer
ing and death on the plains: ga party
of $50 men from various parts of the
country, with fifty wagons, left Bismarck
for the Black Hills March 2. At Cannon
Ball river dissatisfaction was expressed
by many over the slow movement, and a
party of five, consisting of Tyler. Fad
dock and Frank Raymond, of Mortified,
Mimi; G. o. Daniels, of Syracuse, N.
Y, and Swede named Burch started
ahead, and were joined at Grand river
by deserter from Fort Lincoln. The
six left Grand river March 81. A terri
bic snow-storm prevailing, the wagon
train remained at Grand river several
days, and party while out hunting came
upon Paddock and Burch, who, in wan
dering about, had been lost. Burch's
feet had been frozen, and were badly
swollen. His boots were cut off, and
walking over cactus thistles had badly
lascerated the flesh. Paddock is recover
ing; Burch will die. The bodies of
Raymond and Daniels were found twenty
miles further on, frozen stiff. The two
had dug with knives n hole foot and a
half deep, throwing the dirt around the
sides for shelter. Then, discharging
their guns, which they placed by their
sides, they lay down, and, in abject mis-
cry, expired. The remaining two of the
party have not been heard from, and the
inference is fair that they, too, persisted
in the terrible storm. The bodies of
Raymond and Daniels were buried at
Grand river, their effects being taken
possession of by their companions.

Now will tell you. mine. You are the
one woman without whom must forever
be lonely. You have been only too
faithful to Barbara, or you would have
seen it before"
Rapid, earnest, passionate, grew the
strong mans words as he uttered them,
and he closed with sudden forward
movement. Before the widow knew it,
Dams arms were around her, and even
her tears betrayed her.
1t was too late for anything but to let
Dan have his own way. Such a willful
fellow he was, too. And when ut last
the widow insisted on going homeward,
their arrival at the gate was signalized by
Just such another theft as he had perpe-
trated twenty times already, for Bar
bara's exclamation had been simply,
"Kissed her |"
Never WAS q lamp Lit so quickly in all
the world before but, between the find
ing and the scratching of the match, Bill
Emmons managed to say-for he was a
fellow of excellent mind" Perhaps,
Barbara, that may remove some OF our
difficulties.
And Barbara made no reply; but when
Dan and the widow came into the parlor,
it was not easy to say which of the two
women was blushing the most violently.
cts all right, Bill" remarked Dan.
CT don't know that any explanations are
required. You have our entire consent. +"
The visions of the newly painted house
had faded from the mind of Barbara
Hawkins, but it was Dams remark that
called her attention to the manner in
which she was clinging to the armof Bill
Emmons. The latter was equal to the
occasion, however, for he replied.
"Well, so long as I've got Barbara's,
1 don't mind having yours y and then he
added, quickly, 81 say, Dan, You and l
are two fellows of remarkably good sense. 4"
So Barbara's difficulty about her step
mothers future as well as her own was
removed for her entirely, and, curiously
enough, Dan Grover spent the remainder
of his natural life in the unbroken assur-
ance that neither he nor his admirable
wife had ever known but one love-

Injurious Effects of Tobacco.

The senior physician of the Metro
poitan Free Hospital in London writes
as follows: "But 1 can testify, from
long observation, that the chronic use OF
tobacco in any form is very prevalent
cause of debility and manifold diseases.
Take, first of all, the sense of sight. One
of our most celebrated London ophthal-
mic surgeons tells me that he is continu-
ally consulted by young gentlemen for
weakness of vision caused by smoking,
and 1 myself have, in many cases, seen
the prolonged use of tobacco, especially
when it is chewed, cause total loss of
sight Then take the circulatory sys-
tenn, and we find smokers subject to pal
pitation of the heart, and far less able to
bear up against extremes of cold and heat
than they were before making use of
tobacco. The teeth are often, very often,
rendered black and unseemly by the use
of cigars and pipes; and the mouth OF
the chewer is a filthy object, In many
cases, to contemplate with the eye of a
lover of human health and beauty. The
use of tobacco is apt to cause relaxation
of the muscles of the back of the mouth,
and dusky discoloration of the fauces,
with hoarseness from congestion OF the
vocal cords. The overwhelming ma
jority of cases of cancer of the lip are
found in men who smoke, and cancer OF
the tongue has often been said to be
caused by the irritation of the fumes OF
the pipe, or cigar. Great smokers lose
to great extent their vivacity, i. e., they
are less vital than they used to be, and
less easily moved by slight stimuli which
might prove pleasurable to non-smokers.
They are VIGOROUSLY dyspeptic. l need
hardly refer, indeed, to such well known
fact. They are subject to constipation
and naalaise; and when deprived of their
stimulus are more miserable, perhaps,
than even drinkers. L cannot see why
men smoke when women do not. We
should, am sure, object strongly to our
women destroying the pearly whiteness
of their teeth or losing their vivacity and
impressibility by the use of any such
poison as nicotine, even in small doses.
Hence / must take the liberty to protest
against a custom which has been in
Weighed against by Brodie, COPELAND,
Crichett, Guerin, Mantegazza, Caco-
pardo, and numerous heads of my pro-
fession in all countries"

The Wise Course in Rheumatism.

Rheumatic patients who have been induced
to submit to depletion by blood-letting, or to
take colchicum and other drugs Of an equally
pernicious character, will consult their we'll
being by abandoning such insane procedure,
and using as substitute Hostetters Stomach
Bitters, which will infallibly afford them the
much-desred relief and is absolutely safe.
This benign vegetable depurent cools the blood
by expelling from it the infanAnatory elements
which give rise to maladies of rheumatic and
equity type, and rectifcs disordered conditions
of the stomach, nervous system and bowels
which usually accompany them. As rheunia-
tism has a tendency to attack the heart, the de-
STABILITY of early resort to the Btters is OBJ
vious, since the danger is increased by every
moment of delay

Every individual gain increases public gain.
Upon the health Of the people is based the pros
perity OF nation, by it every value is increased,
every Joy enhanced. Health IL essential to the
accomplishment OF every purpose; while sick
ness thwarts the best intentions and loftiest
aims. Unto us are committed important health
trusts, which we hold not merely in our own
behalf but for the benefit Of Others In order
that we may be able to discharge the obligation
of our trusteeship, and thus prove worthy of our
generous commission, it is necessary that we
study the art of preserving health and prolong-
ing life. 1t is of paramount Importance to every
person not only to understand the means Tor
the preservation OF health, but also to know
what remedies should be employed for the ale
Walton OF the common ailments OF life. Not
that we would advise every man under all cir
cumstances to attempt to be his own physician,
but We entreat him to acquire sufficient knowl-
edge of his system and the laws that govern 1t,
that he may be prepared to take care of himself
properly, and thereby prevent sickness and pro-
long life. In no textbook will the people find
the subjects OF physiology and hygiene, or the
science OF life and the art of preserving health,
more scientifically discussed or more plainly
taught than in "The Peoples Common Sense

The sweetest sound our whole year round

The song OF the full orchard choir
Is not SO fine a thing.

Her random pictures through the year,
But oft her music bids us long
Remember those most dear.
To ma when in the sudden spring

with fine irst trill there comes again
One picture OF the May.
Tho veil Is parted wide, and 10,
A moment, though my eyelids close,
Once more / see that wooden hill
Where the arbutus grows.
l see the village dryad kneel,
Trailing her slender fingers through
The knotted tendrils, IA she lifts
Their pink, pale flowers To view.
Once more dare 10 stoop beside
The dove-eyed beauty of my choice,
And lorg 10 touch her careless hair,
And think how dear her voice.
MY eager. wandering hands assist
With fragrant blooms her lap to NIL,
And half by chance they meet her own,
Hall by our young hearts viii.
Till, at the last, those blossoms won
Like her, so pure, so sweet, so shy
Upon the gray and lichened rocks
Close al her feet lie.
Fresh blows the breeze through hemlock-trees
The fields are edged with green below;
And naught but youth and hope and love
We know or care to know!
Hark from the moss-clung apple bough,
Beyond the tumbled wall, there broke
That gurgling music of the May
Twas the first robin spoke

For little then my glad heart visit
What toll and time should come to pass,
And what delight be missed;
Nor thought thereafter, year by year
Hearing that fresh yet oden song,
To yearn FOR Unreturning joys
That with its joy belong.

dispute arose, in which seven persons
were engaged, concerning the title of a

all hands drew shooters and commenced
firing. Result: Dan O'Bradovitch, of
Eureka, New, killed; Steven Corsich, of
same place, MORALLY shot; and N. Mil
Itch slightly wounded. Another dis
turbance, caused by town-lots jumping,
occurred about the same hour, during
which several shots were fired, but no.
body hurt.
