Many causes tend to produce this painful
and distressing state. The blood is retarded
in its return; the too frequent Use of gastric
purgatives tends 10 produce congestion Of
the bowels, torpid action of the liver, and
numerous other causes are the source Of this
complaint, and hitherto nothing efiectual
has been presented to the public, which
would rapidly alleviate symptoms and ulti-
mately prove an effective cure. In PTLON
we have a remedy which not only acts al
most instantly, but will remove the largest
tUmors of she parts piles by absorption,
and many who have received not only ben
eft, but have been gradually cured, have
been assured (Prior TO this treatment) by
eminent surgeons that the only relief they
ever could expect in life would be by an OPP
Grafton, and removing II or them from the
body BY procedure which necossitates the
knife. This remedy has been hailed with
delight and is now prescribed by many Prac-
ticing physicians, who are cOgnizant of its
merits, as the only known sure cure for
PILES. Price Fifty Cents per package, or
six for $3.50.

It's will be small. The day of large
profits and big dividends is gone by,
and viii not return for a time. We
are living lii cheap era. Everything
is cheap and it is well it Is so. The
mass Of the people are becoming fru-
gal; they stint themselves in comforts
they once accustomed to purchase Law
ishly' and they haggle about prices in
very un-American fashion. We are
going through the y cry irksome process
Of settling down tOaIevel Of smaller in
comes and lower wages, and as individ-
ual credit Is not nearly so abundant as
it was three years ago a mans purchases
are more strictly measured by his abiI-
ity to pay for them. We have had a
bcnignant season all over, the country
and the result is an immense crop Of
all the staples cotton, gram, tobacco,
sugar, rice, potatoes and hay, together
with 50 bountiful yield ofsucII minor
good things as fruit and garden yege-
tables that we hardly know what to do
with them All the surplus Of these
crops viii have to move to market and
that mOvemoment will make business 5,
and great deal Of it, particularly To-
railroad shippers and the banks; and
the handling the crops in transit will
furnish employment to many persons
who are now idle. But prices will
probably csntinue low and profits
small. There will be no fortunes
made in day ora season, and few open
ings for lucrative speculations. Large
profits do not always indicate hea thy
for trade, for they involve
losses to others. The farmer will have
TO sell his crop, even though he gets a
low price for it; but he will get his
compensation in purchases ofdry goods
and groceries at low prices; it will
therefore be a reign Of low prices all
round, in which very few will make
money at the expense Of others,

WHAT AN ADvEnrisEMENr DID.

Experience has done little for the
average business man u. it it has not
taught him the benefit of advertising.
l never met a man who had been sue
cessful in a large measure but that
printers ink could claim very large
share of the credit of his success. But
while everything goes TO show the
great value of advertising, one needs
but to dabble very slightly with science
before he learns that it is only judici.
Gus advertising that pays. To write q
good advertisement is no easy task /;
the accomplishment can be numbered
among the sciences. In looking over
the advertising columns of paper I
am not only interested in the matter
but in the manner in which it is pre-
scnted, and l have often found myself
enyying man the happy manner in
which he presented his business to the
public more than did the possession
OF his business.

and by means of a rope which he had
with him, he let himself down. into
what he considered the upper story of
building of enormous size. There
were at least q dozen different, apart

floor was of solid cedar loxs, hewed
and fitted close together. While CROP
ing his way from chamber to- chamber
over huge piles of rubbish and debris,
Remine came to an aperture opening
down into the dark and dismal depths
below. His curiosity to examine this
subterranean cavern was very great
but fearful that he might stumble over
the ghosts of some of the old Aztec or
Toltee builders, he finally abandoned
the undertaking, and, ,;eaving the ruins
behind, started up the Miguel in his
search for gold. He found good placer
indications in the bed Of the stream at
almost every point, and fully convinc-
ed at last of the mineral wealth OF the
country, he retraced his footsteps,
reaching Silverton the latter part of
August. Early in the spring of 1877
several expeditions were organized to
thoroughly explore and prospect the
new country, and the result of their
observations only confirmed former
reports, and stamp the Minguiei as one
Of the most wonderful mining districts
in the United States. The bed OF the
stream, as well as the banks On either
side, are one vast placer. ...oan sae.,1

THE AGE OF THE SUN.

There has been a long dispute as te
the age of the sun. DIR. Croll, the
Scotch geologist, has offered a theory
which is not altogether new, but ad-
mits of some novel arguments. He re.
jects the combustion theory, since il
the sun were all q mass of burning
coal, it would not last over 5000 years
the chemical theory does not prolony
the duration sufficiently the meteoric
theory will not serve; the only re-
naming explanation is the agglava.
ton or condensation theory. Con-
densation, it can be mathematically
shown, would supply enough heat to
keep the sun at its temperature for
2O,OO0,OOO years. Unfortunately that
period is not sufficient for the geolo-
gist. He demands at least 1OO,OOO,OOO
years for the changes of the earth's
face, aud would prefer twice that
length of time. Professor Croll says
there is way out of this difficulty, by
supposing that the Nebula was not
cold but hot. If you suppose it hot
enough to start with, you will have
heat enough to carry you through. OBJ
viously, it is iuss as easy TO suppose a
hot nebula as a cold one,

MURPHY.
oh, civil war! thy cruel hand.
Wrested thu fairest in our land
From country and from kin.
MaRgied and torn midst battles heat,
Trodtten beneath the rushing feet,
How many brave heart ceased to beat
Midst battles thund'rous dinl
But there's battle sad6cr far
Than those Of serried ranks of war
Waging among us here,
Between the liquid fiend of fire,
Whose steps are marked with ruin dire
ny hearihstones lone and funeral pyre,
And many an orphans tear.
But oh; what means yon banner red.
Floating in triumph O'er each head.
Borne by the hrcczss high?
Oh. tiny band, what hope is thine
Though battling for q right divine?
That glorious sun for thee shall shine
Within fair viciory's sky.
Flashing the slender ranks along,
Although not formed OF steel
Nay, shudder not; it is not blood
AAoS luis III many u crimson uOOd,
Save that which sprang from vintage bud,
As prisoners lowly kneel.
On. sffkcn bonds. are G SO strong
To battle thus 'gainst human wrong,
And thus the field m aintainf
The foe is bailled or his prey;
With lowering brow he turns away
From sight OF waving banners gay;
lie knows the strife Is vain
No moreno more to bend beneath
The brand Of wine, the shameful death.
Its victims ever brave,
Rejoice for friends and kin restored
From baffied barman's reeking board
Dark ruins stream no more to ford,
Long may your banner wave,
Bright badgei NO mem'ry of disgrace
Shall mantle in the owners face
At sight of thy bright hue
Symbol of manhood's better part,
No thought Of shame canst thou impart,
Worn boldly o'er the beating heart
To heme and duty true.

Printed bills of fare were scattered

and milk, one cent; a cup of the ordi-
nary size, two cents bread and butter,
one cent; soup, one cent; q slice Of
corned beef, one cent; baked or

Three newsboys entered noisily,
seating themselves at table, as par
ty of ofdemonstratiye but unaccustomed
fellows might at Delmcnico's, and
perused the the bill Of fare. One or
dered corned beef, beans, a cup of cof-
fee, and cruller, at a total cost of four
cents. One had q large cup Of coffee
and quarter of pie at the same cost.
The third more recklessly ordered a
cup of coffee, bread and butter, beans,
csrned beef, a cruller, fried hominy,
potato. and a doughnut, at an expeud-
iture of eight cents; but he became
gorged before the food was all eaten,
and, in spite of hard gulping, half the

were left.
