rncouragment for the Feeble.

Debility, whether 1t be inherent, or
caused by overtaxed strength, or protract-
ed illness, has a most depressing influence
upon the mind, breeding an abject melan'
cnoly nearly akin to despair, and enforc'
ing the abandonment Of the cherished
projects and high hopes. Happily, the
eufeebled system, even in extreme cases,
is susceptible ofinvlgoration. It's proved
by incoutrovertible evidence that Hostel
ter's stomach Bttters Is an unfsiling
strengthened of the weak, and that In ad'
dition to vitalizlng the physical ofgrniza-
ton, 1T establishes regularity among those
organs upon wbese efficient discharge OF
the duties imposed on them by nature
continued vlgor and health depend. Thou
sands of instances might he cited to show
the regenersting influence OF the nealth''
giving agent in cases OF debility, liver
disease, dyspepsia, nervous ailments, con.
stipation, intermittent fever, urinary and
uterine troubles, govt and rheumatism,
and other maladies.

The Dark Side OF Public Life.

washington LeIter.
Some sad scenes attend the death OF a
Congress. Said one Of the ex-members
10 me the other day, one who has had an
honorable though uneventful and unim.
portsnt career: 81 have now been in
public lie for twelve years. By the re-
districting of my State my district has
been abollsed. i am almost glad to get
ont OF the public service, and yet do
not know what TO do. They have called
US all thieves, but / have scarcely money
enough to support my sanity in respecta-
billty for six months. was bred a lawyer,
and have had by old single for the last
ten years creaking upon its rusty hinges
before my office door in my native town.
L. is a little town. The business is small
and has greatly changed, and the people
have almost forgotten me a. lawyer,
and doubt, if commenced life there
again, If l could earn my salt. The
young men have got all the clients, and
need and deserve them, because they
know the modern ways of the courts.
Ire truth is, 1t is like beginning lite over

wife had a prolonged illness. You Know
how colorless the hours are in sick room

OF California street bill has been the
scene Of building operations on gigantic
scale. The crown of this hill is the site.
which hiss been selected by the railroad
msgnsles for their residences. ID. ID.
Cotton was the first to build, erecting his
house on the northwest corner OF Cali
tornia and Taylor streets, several years
ago. Leland Stamford, the President
and Mark Hopkins, the Treasurer OF the
Central Pacific Railroad Company, pnr-
chased conformity the block sur
rounded by California, Powell, Pine and
Masons street, which they began to I'M
prove over two years ago. Although
Mr.. Stanford's residence, at the south,
west corner of California and Powell
reefs has been tsnanted tor some time,
it ia only very recently that it was I'm
he'd. The surroundings OF the house
nave not yet been finished A gang OF
men are at present laying down the side
walks around the property, and host OF
painters arc putting the finishing coat on
70 exterior walls of the house. Mark
Hopkins house, at the southwest corner
of California snd Mason streets, is we'll
u ,der way, the roofing being nearly I'm
is led. The house OF Charles Croker, at
10 northeast corner Of California and
TAYLOR streets, is almost ready for occu-
pncy.
These three buildings are the largest
an | most costly residences In the city.
hl!herto no reliable estimate Of the cost
hsever been made public, being vague
/; set at from five hundred thousand dol
.rs to one million dollars each. Leland
Stsnfords residence has, however, cost
q round $2,OO00OO. The total outlay on
.e residence of Charles Croker will
a mount to about two million three hun
d ell thousand dollars. Mark Hopkins
r ,idence, which is the most elaborate IN
Iesign, will have, cost, when finished,
near " three million dollars. Over seven
million dollars is thus represented in
these three residences. The external ap:
pearancs OF these dwellings gives the
spectator but q very Indifferent idea OF
the costliness and magnifcence of the
interior. No expense has been spared
anywhere The bath rooms in the Gro
ker residence, for instance, have cost
$4,000 each, aud there are half dozen
of them in the building. Even the
three .rungod step-lsdder in Mr.. Stan,
ford's library cost over one hundred and
fifty dollars.
