PERUVIAN SYRUP
Protected Solution Of Pro-
toXlde Of Iron.
Read the Following.
WEST FA1RLEE. VT Jan.11 IN,

WEST FAIRLEE, VT, Jan. II. 1871.
Dear SlT-For seven or eight years past
have been in poor health, and for the pasL
year or more very feeble. My health con-
tinued to decline, and my flesh and strength
wasted away, until was unable TO work
or even go up stairs without great eXhaus
tion. Isuffered from frequent and distress
ing attacks of palpitation of the heart, my
food distressed me, causing acidity and
pain in the stomach; and suffered from
extreme nervousness constipation, and de-
bility of the system generally. my blood
being thin and poor and sluggish in circu-
lation, and was for years suffering all the
tortures of confirmed dyspeptic. A About
six months since | concluded would try u
bottle of PERUVIAN SYRUP, and receiv-
Ell so much benefit from 1t that purchased
five bottles more, and have continued the
use of the SYRUP until quite recently. 1t
has restored my health TO such an extent
that feel myself as good as new. NV di-
gestion is good and my weight has increas-
cd in the past four months from 100 to 1873
pounds; my strength has returned, and my
general health Is thus wonderfully improv-
ed, and can truly say | owe 1t all 10 the
use OF your PERUVIAN SYRUP. / earn
estly recon- mend all sufferers from dyspep-
sia anc debility to give II trial, hoping it
will do them as much good as 1t has me.
Yours very truly, MRS. S. b. BEMIS.

THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND

II appears that Judge WEST of
Bellefoutainc the Republican candi-
date for Governor Of Ohio is nearly
blind so that he cannot walk ih the
street without being led. This is
great pity and we are very sorry that
any man should be in such a condi-
ton.
But the blindness of the candidate
is nothing compared with the blind
ness of the platform. When great
party deliberately adopts the princi-
pies of Communism among it's cardi-
nal doctrines and lays down as the
chief element of it's policy measure
first proposed by the railway strikers
it makes very little difference whether
its candidate sees with both eyes or
with none at all. The safety OF society
requires that they 'hould be defeated
and that the doctrines which they rel
resent In the canvass should be stamI-
ed with the brand of condemnation
by every sensible and patriotic citi-
zen no matter to what party he be-
longs.

Dear Sir-It gives me very great pleasure

with the result, continued its use until three
or four bottles had been used and she is
now in better health than at any time for
ten years, and has increased in weight from

sicians, and used great variety of patent
medicines, TO the extent of hundreds OF dol
lars, and / Know she received more benefit
from the PERUVIAN SYRUP than all the
rest together.
My sales of the Syrup are very large
and constantly increasing. and do not hes
itate TO recommend and even warrant it to
give satisfaction. If you desire you are at
liberty to use this communication as you
see fit, as it gives me pleasure to recon-
mend so good an article to suffering hu-

- LEVEL HEADED STRIKER,

The following letter, written by work
ingman, brakeman on one of the rail-
roads, we take from all exchange because
we think it hits the nail square on the
head. aud may serve to open the eyes of
others to their folly: "Smartness is a
good thing. but sometimes people get too
smart. We railroaders always thought
ourselves equal to most people in smart
hess, but now we begin TO discover that
We have been badly sold. And this is
why: When we first started on this strike
for every railrOader concerned there We're
at least five outsiders who said, ''Go it,
boys, We'll help you. Well our folks all
over the country sailed in and busted
up things generally. But what has be-
come of our outside friends? Why,
tell you that every man of them is an APP
plicant for our situations. If We hadn't
been fools we could have seen this for
with about five men looking on, for one
man working, them five men must nat
urally do some hankering after the flesh
pots-iean tho they be-that we have.
Aud my eyes, we walked right into the
trap. And now Mr.. Editor, don't know
that the names of nearly all those who
fooled us on are with our employers for
situations. And they say in their papers
that they don't belong to any union or
brotherhood, nor never will, so help 'em
Moses, etc, etc Well they do belong to
the brotherhood of bnaves and liars, aud
they have got great many hard working
men into big scrape. Why know one
man who is fireman and wants to have
the engine, and heard him tell one of
the railroad officers that he wouldn't
strike, and it was all wrong, ETC., and yet
he was attending the meetings to get up
strike. because two outsiders had told
him they would fix it so that he should
be engineer and they would be firemen
and brakemen. Wasn't that nicely set
up? And he is afraid of being hurt by
the strikers. Well he may be. This is
the opinion good many of us have, that
we have been fooled by outsiders who
want our places"

VALUE OF FRUIT AS FooD.-At a con-
vention OF fruit growers OF Ohio, Mr..
bateman, the well-known horticulturist,
said that farmers and Others, especially
those having families of children, would
find great advantage in the matter OF
health by using fruit as part of every
meal at all times Of the year. Mr.. b.
sand he had tried this plan for
many years with a large family and
knew from experience that nearly all
the cases of arrangement Of health by
the use Of fruit in summer We're attrih-
uted to its irregular use, H. also be-
lieved that more constant and plenti-
tul use OF fruit would be found useful as
preventive OF the malarial tevers so
common in the West. farmers should
grow more kinds OF summer fruits, so as
to have a constant succession for the ta>
Bile; more grapes, where they can be
grown, aud better varieties OF apples IN
their orchard.

THE RIOTS PUT DOWN BY THE PEOPLE
WITHOUT A REGULAR ARMY.
From the Cincinnati EalqutreT's Inte7vteU
ruth Dion BOuctcdut,
The aristocratic class and its middle
class commercial supporters have un-
doubtedly been rejoiced at the appear
ance of Socialism and rapine in America.
| know it! They have said: "There is
your free experiment; there is your model
republic" Now they will all stand back
again, mortified at the vitality of
country based on free consent. This is
one of the most startling crisises and tri
umphs of the popular system. The fire
is no sooner lighted than it is pot out
This will be a wonderful aid to America
and liberty in Europe, where it has been
said for years: "They have only escaped
orr evils from natural, not froln political
advantages. When their mob rises, away
will 90 their boasted fabric Of unsupport-
ed strength"

WHAT is THOUGHT OF IT.
A special from Mahanoy City to the
Pottsville Miners Journal, says:-
"Everything in this section is very
quiet, and our citizens all rejoice in the
fact, because heretofore when strikes were
talked of it seemed to emanate from here
but in this case our miners and laborers
have shown great wisdom, and completely
ignored the teaching of that class who
would like to be leaders and who are
urging suspension.
"On Friday night last there was large
meeting held in Germans Hall. this city
at which the men who were working
made motion that ON the question of a
strike none but those who were actually
working should be permitted to vote. -
This was too much for those who favor
ed strike; the meeting was Immediately
adjourned. Last night thay had another
meeting, and after lively discussion,
pro and con, it was decided to continue
to work, as there was no hope of getting
general suspension throughout the en-
tire anthracite coal-fields.
"The collieries working in and around
this city are as follows: North Mabanoy,
Mahanoy City, Elmwood and Boston
Run, of the p. & r. @. Il l. Co.'S works;
Wiggan & Trichle's, St. Nicholas, Prlm-
rose, and Staffordshire, of the individual
operators. On Monday the Tunnel Ridge
and Gilbert collieries will start, and
rllmor has it that by Wednesday several
other individual operators will start.
"This morning Father Ryan, of st.
Canicus Church, urged all connected
with his church TO have nothing to do
with a strike or those who originated it,
but to continue to work ON like men, no
matter what influence was brought to
bear on them"

What Turkish Unity Means


What Turkish Unity Means
"Where the Sultan's horse-hoof treads
grass never grows again" The proverb
is pithy condensation Of four hundred
years of European history in that corner
of Europe we call Turkey, but which
really is bundle of subject States of
different nationalities, trodden under
the same horse-hoof, to whose trampling
the English Government mods approval
1t will help lis to understand the posi-
ton of the Turkish provinces toward
their master to remember that Bulgaria,
Servia, Bosnia, Albania, Herzego viaa
and the Greek communities, are distinct
provinces of different nationalties, some
Slav, some Greek. while Roumania re-
presents the ancient Thrace, by conquest
Roman. This province, as well as Ser.
via, afterwards succeeded in making
herself Independent of Turkey, save that
the tribute of money is still paid to the
Sultan. A native, Prince Milan, rules
over Servia, and Prince Charles Hohen-
zollern, kinsman of the German EN-
peror, is the Roumaniau leader, lending
what help he can now to the delivering
forces of the Gear.
Bulgaria, that rich province that
stretches south from the Danube to the
Balkan range, has been Christian since
the ninth century. The Empire of the
GreeR Onurcn, whose CaplUal was COn-
stantinople, made room from time to
time for wandering tribes from ASIA that
settled upon her territory, as did the
Hungarians and Bulgarans, but absorb
ed them all into her religious faith-all
but one.
When the English talk of sending
their feet to Gallipoli, that station in the
Dardanelles that commands the Porte, it
is curious to recall that the first ground
held by the Turks in Europe was this
same Kalipoh. From that one foothold
he has spread over the provinces of old
Greece and Macedonia, neither absorb
ing them nor being absorbed by them, as
were the Danes and Normans in Eng
land and the Franks in Gaul. His is
the "army of occupation" still, and he is
as practically an invader to-day as the
Germans were in Paris in II. In the
northwest, Bosnia and H herzegovina are
constantly in rebellion, for, although
Bosnia submitted to the religion of her
conqueror and became Mahometan, she
has the spirit of independence still.
