A Few Things that We Know.

We know GnaC Il disordered stomach
or liver produces more suffering than
any other cause. We know that very
few physicians ars successful in their
treatment OF these disorders. We know
that DaCosta's Radical Cure will, with
out the shadow OF u doubt, almost i'm
mediaLely relieve and permanently cure
all OF these distressing symptoms. We
know of thousands who are willing to
testify that wnat we say is true to the

AN UNLUCKY MAN.--The unhappy
Kentucklan, who BET GU every race DUR
ing the week and lost every time, illus
trates the freaks OF fortune in This re-
spect. He had just $50 left, and in sheer
desperation cried out in the crowd that
assembled at the hotel after the races:
"Pl bet $50 can name two men here
with twenty-three fingers" When the
bet was taken, the chnd Of Fate contin-
ued; "Anybody'll do. Heremy friend,
Pll Jake you. l have thirteen fingers,
and you have ten, that makes twenty

NOT so POOR.

Miss Joanna Farnham, of Boston, aged
80 years, and supposed TO De very poor,
died recently. "When her trunk was
opened, it was found to contain variety
OF dry goods, notes Tor IS 1000, a bank
book showing deposits OF Sl 100, a small
sum of money, and also d piece OF paper
having a trunk key wrapped up in it,
and Oh the paper was a writing stating
that the key belonged TO another trunk,
which coulu be found at the house of Il
relative III Milton. This proved to be
true, and this second trunk was pack ed
full OF all sorts OF fine wearing apparel,
aud contained alsoa KEY Ill q piece oil
paper, upon which was the statement
that this Key belonged to another trunk
at a certain other house. And so this
thing was followed up until twenty very
large-siZed trunks and three huge pack
ing chests were lOund, all Crammel iull
OF Lne most expensive articles Of ladies'
wearing apparel and house furnishings
that the Bostonmarket afforded. Ali OF
these goods are perfectly new and in the
best order, never having been used at
all. There is enough of the wn0ie to
stock large store. Yet there is said to
be no doubt that she cam4 honestly by
all, as it has since been ascertained

ONE of the hardest things within the
range OF possibility is to change the
name of place. Authorities may de-
cree but people will go right on using
the old name. Fully ten years ago the
Japanese Government ordered that Yed-
40, the capitol Of the Empire, should be
called Toxic. But foreign nations, out
side of the United States, insist on US
ing the name Yeddo, and nine-tenths OF
the people in this country read of Toxic
and think it is some new town.

DICKENS ODD DREAM.-One night, af-
ter one Of his pubAc reaulngs, Charles
Dickens dreamed be was in a room
where every one was dressed in scarlet.
He stumbled against lady with her
back toward him. AS he apolugized, she
turned her head and said: 'My name is
Napier" The face was unknown to
him, and 30 was the name. Two days
after, in the same town, while in tne
waitlng-room before the hour for read
ing, lady friend came in, accompanied d
by an unknown lady in d scarlet opera
cloak, "who," said the friend, sis very
desirous OF being introduced" The
scarlet cloak and the dream flashing into
his mind, he said, laughingly, "NoL Miss
Napier" "Yes, MISS Napier"

Mr.. JULIUS DEXTER has resigned his
position as President of the Geological
Society. We regret this, and so do peo-
pie generally who feel an interest in the
Geological Garden and hope for all pos
sible success to the enterprise. Mr..
Dexter is a public-spirited citizen of

most generously devoted both to the in
terest OF this city. No man of his age
has done more for Cincinnati, and no
one works more earnestly for the sue

The students of Trinity College, Hart
ford, Conn.,, have had Wrangle over
the College cofors. On Thursday green
and white were voted down, and blue
and silver gray were adopted. On the
next day blue and silver gray were cast
of and green and white were put on. 1t
was understood that the young ladies of
lhe city had objected to the wearing OF
the green; but their preferences were
not considered. 1t was an issue be-
tween the secret societies; the color
line had appeared in college politics, and
gallantry went to the wall.

ENGLISH interest has SO worked upon
the feelings of British subjects in regard
to the character of the Turk and his
treatment OF the Christians, that the
shadow Of this influence is felt In this
country. Quite a large proportion OF
our people are beginning TO regard the
Turks as rather good-natured, inno-
cent, much-abused people, who because
of their weakness and their geograph-
Ical position are about to fall prey to
the merciless Russians. The stories of
the Bulgarian atrocities have nearly been
forgotten and the distorted utterances
Of missionaries who are quoted as say
Ing they prefer the reign Of Turkey to
that OF the Car, and have
more hope Of liberation from
, she Mahommedan than from the
Greek Church, are quoted and requoted
and passed around to do service in
working up a sympathy i'll accordance
with English interest. Itmust be remem-
bered that all such statements reach us
tnrough Englisn papers, ana III tney nad
any foundation in the first place would
not be recognized by their authors in
the shape we have them. 1t is not often
that we hear directly from the Christians
Of the Turkish dependencies, and when
we do, 1t is always in the same strain as
the letter of Rev. r. M. Cole to the. New
York Tribune. Mr.. Cole is Christian
missionary at Erzeroum. He gives along
account OF the cruelties Of the Turks,
Of which the following. is o sample:

SEWING MACHINES.

VICTORIOUS! ..
SEWING MACHINES.

Again the Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Ma
chimes tri umph over the world. The Centen-
nial Commission have officially announced
the awards, and decreed for the New Wheeler
& Wilson TWO. DIPLOMAS OF HONOR AND TWO
MEDALS OF MERIT. This is double victory,
and the highest award which it was In the
power OF the Centennial authorities to bestow.
No other sewing Machine received such
recognition. More than thirty OF the best pro-
ducers of machines in this and other countries
entered for competition, and at Philade phia
in 1876, as at Vienna in 1873, and at Paris in
1867, Wheeler & Wilson lead the list After
careful, rigorous, and exhaustive examina-
ton, the judges unanimously decided that the
superior excellence OF these machines de-
served more than one medal Or diploma, and
consequently, they recommended TWO or
EACH. The Centennial Commission unani-
mously ratified the action Of the judges, and
the public will indorse the decision OF these
ablest Of mechanical experts. A claim OF
equally distinguished honor for any other
sewing machine is only an attempt to hood
| wink the people. Read the following, which
stamps the "New Wheeler & Wilson" as the
! STANDARD SEWING MACHINE OF THE WORLD.
