Caarrh, in its extent and destructive force,
stands next to Consumption, and is closely allied
to 10; for in certain constitutions the transition from
one to the other is only a question of time. IL is
therefore singular thing that those afflicted with
1t should not make it the object of their lives to rid
themselves of IL. A single bottle of any remedy
cannot, in the chronic stage, effect cure, nor even
bring the system under Its influence fully. In many
such cases the bones and cartilage of the nose are
eaten away, the organs of hearing, of seeing and
of tasting affected as to be rendered useless

constant and distressing cough. The return to
health must necessarily be slow, under the most
favorable circumstances, when go seriously aflct-

comes to hand, we become more and more satisfied
that there does not exist of atarrh that can
not be cured by judicious and persistent use OF
Saniord's Radical Cure for Catarrh The relief in
every obtained from the first dose is an indica-
tion of what IL will do when the system is brought

THE LADIES OF fHE WHITE HOUSE.

The present is an era of kindly senti-
ment. and, as one token of it, we are hap
| py to observe in more than one journal
pleasant notices of the late lady of the
White House. Mrs. Grant seems to retire
from position of considerable RESPONSE
biity with the best wishes of all who know
her. Undoubtedly she is not sorry to 90.
AS good housewife she has not probably
found the executive mansion very con-
venient place of abode. All reports con-
cur in representing that renowned edifice
to be in a condition somewhat dilapidated
and actually verging upon the shabby.
In fact, for eight years Mrs. Grant has had
no house of her own, and has really been
at the head Of large office maintained
for the use and benefit Of the American
people. The modest little structure which
she left at Galena was doubtless far pleas
anter and in great deal better repair.
We are inclined to believe that Mrs. Hayes
will also think with some regret of her
snug, elegant and commodious Ohio home,
as the auction advertisements say. "with
all the modern improvements" We know
at least from her correspondence that such
was the homesick feeling of Mrs. John
Adams, who was always longing tor the
old-fashioned residence, half villa and half
farm house, which she had left In Massa-
chusetts. f.,...
Both the ex-President and the President
are married men. Several OF our Chief
Magistrates have not been so fortunate.
MIR. Buchanan, for instance, bachelor Of
the oldest kind, would have found his do
mestic arrangements sorely trying but for
the tact, grace and elegance of his niece.
Jefferson, when he became President, was
still mourning his beautiful wife, too early
lost; indeed he never ceased to mourn
for her, The charming manners and per-
sonal elegance of Mrs. Madison are mat
ters of history. When Mrs. Jackson, in
the quiet of the Hermitage. heard of her
husbands election to the Presidency, she
said simply. "Well, for the Generals sake
| am glad; for my own part, l never
wished it.n She was dead soon after
She went to narrower home than the
White House. and it is told that the gen.
eral was never the same man afterward--
one of his friends said that he grew twen-
ty years older on the night of her death.
Mrs. Tyler came by the accident of death
to the white House, and she died there.
leaving its domestic arrangements some-
what at hap-hazard for the rest of the off,
cial term of her husband. Mrs. Pierce
arrived at Washington under the shadow
OF a great and recent bereavement, her
only child, fine lad of thirteen years.
having been killed by railway accident
the preceding January. Mrs. Fillmore,
it will be remembered. died just after her
husband went out of office, and political
disappointment and domestic grief cloud
ed his last official days. We have not
mentioned the stately lady of the true
aristocratic Virginian blood, who was the
wife of Washington. and who will always
be remembered with him. She was never
and nothing of public interest to be said.

and European WOrkmen.

1t was matter to stir ones patriotic
pride, but not less to move ones pity, to
observe the commotion in business cir
Giles in Switzerland, as the reports of the
Swiss Commissioners to the Philadelphia
Exhibition were made public. Affairs
were not in cheerful state at the time.
The "hard times" that had begun in
America were already sorely felt in the
center of Europe. Production was
slackcned in all the factories, and the
values of many favorite investments had
shrunk to one-half. When the report of
M. Favre-Perret on American watch
making was read TO crowded meetings of
watch makers at Neuchatel and Geneva,
the general expression was that of alb.
ject despair. Work was suspended for
months on the costly building of the
School of Watch making founded by the
Geneva Government. A commission was
appointed by the Cantonal Legislature to
inquire what new industry could be in.
troduced in place of that which must
henceforth be abandoned to American
competitors.
Among those interested in the other
leading manufacture of Switzerland
the silk factories of Basic and Zurich
there we're like searching of heart. This
same report of NJ. Favre.Perret warned
his fellow citizens that the silk business
was as sure to be run away with by the
Yankees as the watch business. The
wonder in both cases is that facts which
had long been accommodating, and which
had never been hid in corner, should
have taken anybody by surprise. The
expectation of ribbons from Basic TO the
United States has been dwindling regu.
larry, and is now reduced to one.sixth of
what it was only four years ago. 1t is
obvious that the next step for the Ameri-
cans. after supplying their own market,
is to compete in other markets.
The productions of the Swiss diaries
are priced in all the markets of Europe.
Last January, NJ. Grenier, at a meeting
OF the Agricultural Society Of the Canton
de Vaud, informed his associates to what
extent the dairy productions of the great
establishments of the Northern States and
Canada were Overlooking the home

Meaning Of the Word "Either.

The legal meaning of the word either"
was gravely argued in an English Court
of Chancery not long ago. A certain tes-
tator left property, the disposition of
which was affected by the death of
either" of two persons. One lawyer in
sisted that "either" meant both; and in
support of this view he quoted Richard
son, Webster, Chaucer, Dryden, Southey,
the story of the Crucifxion. and pas
sage from Revelations. The Judge sug-
gested that there was an old song in
THE Beggar's Opera" which took the
other view; :" How happy could be
with either, were t'other dear charmer
away" In pronouncing judgment, the
court ruled that either" meant one of
two and did not mean both" 1t
might have that meaning occasionally in
poetry, but never in Court of Chancery.
The mistake which the lawyer argued
for has Millions authority in addition to
those which he quoted:
Before the gates there sat
On either side formidable shape.
Where it evidently means on each of the
two sides. Byron seems to notice that
the word does not signify "both," and
yet falls into as great a blunder when
he uses the word each in the sense of OPP
posite:
A palace and prison on each side.
Meaning a palace on one side and the
prison on the other.--NdtionaI Reposi-
tory.

The Bristol Pa) Observer instances
the following as an illustration of the ap-
parently useless inconvenience some
times caused by the requirement of
compliance with the forms of law in the
settlement of estates: "In Rockhill
Township son, an only child, and sole
heir of the property of his widowed
mother, upon her death was required to
take out letters of administration the
same as if there were other heirs. AL.
though there are no debts to pay aud no
accounts to collect, he had to buy an ac-
count book in which to record expenses
and receipts. He had to give security in
the sum of $l2 600 that he would honestly
settle the estate and pay it to the heirs,
of which he is the only one; that is, that
he would honestly pay himself. He had
to get two men to appraise the property,
the proceeds of which are to go to him.
All this proved an expense to him of
$75 10 $500"

OK Friday evening last the Three C's,'
of Helena, visited this town as guests of the
Diamond Cities base ball club, and on
Saturday afternoon administered a severe
beating to the ambitious youths composing
the first nine of the local club. AS ten of
the Three C's were present, in order to al
low them ali to take q hand, MIR. E. Blaine
Walker, of the High Flyers, of Helena,
played with the Diamond Cities until the
close of the fifth innings, when his place was
taken by Mr.. Thos. Fisher, who pitched in
the last w innings with good effect, us the
score will show. Tho visitors played an al
most faultless game, with the exception of
u few wild throws and a dropped thy. 1t is
but Justice to our boys to say that two of
their best players were absent, that some of
them never saw a galneGf base ball played
before this spring, and that, it being an ex-
perimental game on their part, it was not
until the eighth innings they where enabled
to place their me- in anything like proper
position. They had, also, in this, their first
game, to face on of the best pitchers in the
Territory, but we feel satisfied that, We're
the game to be played over, they would be
able to make a much better showing even
against the 9hree C's, who sent the strong
est team they could muster to do battle fo1
II elena. We think the game of Saturday
was a valuable experience Tor oug base ball
lists, in showing them wherein their weak
ness lies, and other clubs will find that al
though defeated they are not disheartened

IT has been rn,nored on our streets this
week that the Postmaster of Helena and a
few other individuals are interesting them
selves to their utmost to prevent the estab-
lishment Of service on the new postal route
between Fort Shaw and Camp Baker. 1t
has cost no little trouble to bring the facts
before Congress and get the route establish
ed. and now that the boon has been granted
it is indeed We king to have any one attempt
the defeat of the project, and that, too, in
the face of its manifest practicability and
vital Importance. We cannot believe that
these JUNIORS are true. Certainly an old
citizen of our Territory like Dir. Crounse,
and one so well acquainted with the vast i'm
portance of this route, would not be guilty
of an act SO henious in its conception. What
object any citizen of Helena, or of any other
part of Montana, could have i'll laboring
