A Philadelphia hotel is provided
with an electric apparatus that,
whenever the atmosphere in any

symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAM 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.
T. c 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 dull.
heavy sensation in the back part.
There is generally considerable loss
ofmemory, accompanied with pain
full sensation of having left undone
something which ought to have been
done. A slight, dry cough is some
times an attendant. The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are cold
or burning, and he complains of
prickly sensation of the skin; his
spirits are low; and although he is
satisfied that exercise would be bene-
fetal 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.

The steam pillow coming to Ham
mond & Miller, of Lacrosse, is 4 much
more extensive affair than We had
imagined it was, and when 1t arrives
people will be treated to 3 sight which
will excite their wonder and admira-
ton. The pillow is simply a lOcomo-
tive, as easily guided as a velocipede,
capable of drawing an immense load
and of traversing the prairies in any
direction regardless of hill and hol-
low with nine ordinary breaking
plows attached to It. Hammond, who
operated one of these machines In
Illinois,, says that he can draw five
wagons loaded with two tons each,
from Lacrosse to q distance OF %
miles, in four hours. The cost OF the

Our Opportunity.
From the Emporia Register.

From the Emporia Register.
The Unit.d States lost prestige
among the nations Of the earth
during our civil war, which we
have not as yet entirely regained.
The consumers OF the world learn
ed to look else where for their sup
plies when they could not be OBJ
taiDed here, and we have been
slowly and lsbnriOusly working
back towards ante beLIum times.
The war in Europe now COM
menced is Americas opportunity.
We can profit by others misfor-
tunes without rejoicing in them.
Our country is in no sense respon-
sible for the European troubles,
and in fact, this country can anne
liorate the condition of the con
tending powers, and at the same
time make a good thing out OF it
ourselves.
The task to which Russia has set
herself is no easy one. The Turk,
when his religious enthusiasm is
aroused, will fight without ques-
ton to the bitter end. Those
who reckon the contest a short
and easy one, we think will be
mistaken. It will be next to i'm
possible to confine the conflict to
the two nations who begin it, and
every indication points to An ex-
tensive and protracted war. In
view of these facts, it behooves
our people to make hay while the
sun shines.
The best grain producing region
Of Europe, except perhaps France,
will be affected more or less by the
war, and Europe will need twice
or thrice the amount that It usu-
ally takes. The demand for bread
and meat will be particularly ac-
tive, and at increased prices.
There is scarcely a farmer in
Kansas but could cultivate a few
more acres by making a special
effort, and the product of those
few extra acres for two or three
years may be the means of placing
him on a firm financial basis for
the rest of his days. Let no man
kill a calf. It is worth five times
as much for beef with little addi-
tional expense. With a two years
European war, America must feed
the world.
Let rs prepare for it in time In
order to reap the full benefits.
For more than a year we have
believed, have talked and written,
that Kansas had seen its darkest
days. With this new, and to some
extent unexpected, source of
wealth, we see no reason why we
should not almost Immediately
step into the front rank of veal
thy and prosperous states Let
every man act well his part. and
the grand result is accomplished.
