He dropped in to look at few ex-
changes and have quiet chat with the
editor. While he was tracing with his
finger on our table an outline et the
movements of the contending armies In
Bulgaria, the devil came IN munehing an
apple, and the current OF convers alton
immediately turned to the subject OF

that produced hack in the States" be

superior flavor and pientiiulness of the

"Why, back yonder where l used to

Symptoms OF a Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under the
edge ofthe ribs, increases on pres
sure sometimes the paints 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 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 dull,
heavy sensation in the back part
There isgenera,ly aconsiderable loss
ofmemory, accompanied withapain-
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 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 exercisewould 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-
.oms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few Of them ex-
listed, yet examination Of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively dcranged.

CLEARING THE LAND

With his lands purchased and his
buildings erected the, next thing will be to
clear up the land. The ususl, and
found from experience to be the cheapest,
mode of clearing the land is to cut aw'y
the underground and belt the large
timber. The belted timber Is left stand
ING until 1t dies and commences to tall.
Being dry it is rolled into heaps and
readily burned. As soon as the brush is
cut of and the large timber deadened
the land is ready for cultivation, so that
ground in the spring Tor summer crop
The soil is loose and easily worked. lit
is not needed for cultivation it is ready
for grazing young stock, either cattle
or sheep Indeed it is necessary TO stock
it to prevent it from growing upin brush
again. The usual cost OF cutting away
the underground and betting the timber
when it is done by hired lsbor, is from
81 90 to 50 so per acre. The amount to
be cultivated will be determined by the
size of the family, but usually twenty
acres is as much til able land as any
family will need. That much land will
yield all the corn, wheat and root crops
needed for any family. 1t is not prohts-
bic to cultivate more than is actually
needed Tor home consumption, as grass
is more profitable than grain. But 1t
! will be necessary fo>.. the settler first to
provide his bread ard meat for the year,
hence have dwelt upon this branch of
the subject.

REMEDY FOR HARD TIMES.

What l have said In reference 10 this
section will apply to many other parts
of West Virginia. l have gwen the de-
tails as they exist here, because l am
more familiar with them. | have no in
terest in the subject farther than to call
attention 10 it rs the means OF develop
ing our State, and OF providing way
for the comfortable maintenance o! num-
bers OF people who are starving In the
overcrowded cities. l do not own al
acre OF wild land, nor is any onern whom
l am interested to be benefited by selling
any.
The unfortunate tendency of our rail
road system has been TO build up few
commercial centres at the expense OF the
vast extent OF the country. The result
is, TIE cities have surplus OF idle hands,
while the country is suffering for labor.
Until the reaction Gets in and the over
crowded cities yield up their surplus
labor to the country, we will continue TO
have hard times. Let the poor, indus
trious laborers of the city study this sub
iect with view to lettering condiclons

Ing the actual outlay 9ooO.
He then, by applying his own labor, or
by hired labor, as he pleasss, expends
$3.50 more in improving his lands. SO
then his farm of one hundred acres will
stand him at $1,7OO.
WHAT Is REALIZED.
And what has he 20 show for it7 Is
the next question. He has home for
himself and family to begin with. de
has the ground prepared to raise his
provisions from year to year, and thus
feels independent. It will not require
more than twenty acres to supply HIM
self with what grain he Will need-thls
leaves him so acres from which to derive
a net income. The rent of the 80 acres
at q low calculation will be worth $3.50
annually TO him. If he accumulates
means and is enabled to stock the land
hrmselt it will be worth more to him.
His cows and sheep will yield him
an annual increase. He will have his
milk and butter from the cows, and four
calves each year worth $40 per head.
His flock of sheep will double every third
year
This calculation is made upon basis
of one hundred acres. Of course the size
OF the tract of land will be more or less
according to the means of the purchaser,
but the expenses and profits will be IN
the same proportion. But suppose the
purchaser after clearing his land desires
to sell, can he realize original cost and
cost of Improvements, is the next inquiry
He can, and can more than do it. His
land in good condition will bring him
$50 per acre, In cash, right at home. 1t
easily pays 10 per cent. net profit at that
valuation. So if that he ever gets tired
of his location, or for any other reason,
desires to sell, he will receive $4,000 for
what cost him 81 700.
A PRACTICAL ILLUSTRATION
Fortunes are so easily made on paper
that notwithstanding the traditional
reputation of figures for truthtulness, the
more scepticsl want some actual demon
stratien of the accuracy OF these Cal cula-
tions before embsrking their little capital
in an uutried enterprise. Fortunately
! can give case in point, which amply
sustains my statements. 1t Is that OF
An iliterate German who settled on
Clover creek, in this county, some twenty
wears ago. He came from the Valley
of Virginia, and 800 WAS his en-
tire fortune. With that he bought
80 acres of land, built house and
proceeded to improve it in the manner l
have indicated. AS he was able, he
bought other land and added to IL. He
now owns farm valued At five thou
sand dollars, is the owner Of personal
proper, including money loaned out at
a good interest, to the amount of five
thousand dollars more. Yet every dol
lar he Is worth was made by him as the
legitimate product of his land and OF the
labor OF himself and his sons upon 1t. Thus
in twenty years, with capital of seven
hundred dollars, he has accumulated ten
thousand dollars, and that, TOO, with the
tour years of the war, an entire loss to
him.

MISSION AT St. PATRICKs.-To-day at High
Mass Rev. Father Damen and his colleagues
open, at st. Patrick's Church, mission which
will, without doubt, mark era in the history
ofthat parish. The reputation of Father Dsmen
has extended from end to end of this whole coun
try one of the most successful missoners that
the spirit of enligh tened zeal has ever sent
forth among the people. His reputation being
national, the present mission will naturally
assume character Of general rather than of
merely parochial interest, and we may conse-
quently expect to see his exercises follOwed by
crowds from every part of the city. No rlac,
more appropriate in all respects than 81. Pat
rick's Church could have been fixed upon for
the purposes demanding a central, accessible
and commodou5 auditorium. 10 our column
of " Lonten Exercises" give the hoIrs Of

The gas Company reduced the price of gas,
on the first of January, and yet we hear people
couplain that their bills are as large as ever.
Well, people can keep on grumbling and Gem
planning till doomsday and precious little good
it will do them. The only way to red duce your
bills for light is to have the gas turned off
and burn oil. The great objection, heretofore.
to oil,-its liability to explode or Ignite
been removed by recent discoveries, and the
best authorities assert that there is as little
danger is using Insurance Oil as there is in
using gas or candles. Besides this the light
is softer, steadier aud better than gas light
and costs only about one. half as much. Being
interested in reducing the cost of gas, We
advise readers to call at the Puroline
Gas Company's Office, 95 and 81 Gravier street.

have the gas turned off at their oi ,es and resi-

Count Ladislas Platter writes that the perse-
cution of the Polish clergy continues with
greater severity than ever. Priests are con-
tinually thrown into Russian prisons to herd
with robbers and murderers, and the deporta-
tions to Siberia are frequent. The rsgonnades
of the Uniate laity in Podlachia, for refusing to
allow their children to be baptized by the
official poPes, are still carried on with unre.
lenting persstency. Among ether instances of
the barbarous persecution of the Russian Gov
ernment is the bsnishment to Olonatz of the
parish administrator, Lopinski, in the Diocese
of Augustowo, beoause he had sung with his
congregation in the Litany, Holy Mother of
God, Queen of Poland, pray for u.s." The Gov
ernor of Poland has issued circular threaten
ing every Roman Catholic ecclesiastic who may
do the same with similar punishment

The progress of Catholic universities in
France has of late been such as to gladden. the
heart of every son Of the Church. We men
toned some time ago the one of Toulouse, in
the southernmost corner of France, and now q
Catholic contemporary (the Vrais France gives
us an account of the Inauguration of one in
the extreme north-at Lille, the capital of
French Flanders, The ceremony was presided
by their Eminences the Cardinal. Arch
bishops of Cambrai and of Malines, and as
many as five Bishops attended, besides Mgr. de
LYDIA, the Grand Chancellor. 1t is the sixth
Catholic University of France, the others being
erected at Paris, PotieTs, Lyons Augers and
Toulouse. The faculty of medicine has been
fairly started, whilst the theological faculty is
as yet but in its embryon, a chair for canon
law having been literally endowed by one of
it's founders-Count Dopguer des T'Serrolofs.
As yet, however, Lille is the only one of the six
that has been recognized by the Holy See, and
has received csnontc institution. HencefOrth
Catholic universities will be able successfully
to enter the lists with any one of the secular
colleges superintended by the Government.
