Among the progressive leading
Art Publishing firms Of the country,
we take pleasure in mentioning
George Stinson & Co., of Portland
Maine; they were among the first in
the business, and we Lan only under
stand the colossal proportions their
trade has assumed by remembering
that this is a great and mighty Nation
of nearly fifty million people. They
paid during the year Of 1876 for pos
tage $50, 1919 and, in connection
with this it should be remembered
that only the small orders were sent
by mail, the larger going by express
and freight.
Long since, this eutcrprising firm
recognized the value of printers ink
iudiciously used in advertising, and
they inform us that without 1t they
could never have extended their bust
ness as it is to-day, in three times the
number of years. A short time since
they paid in a single day $24,OO on
contract for newspaper advertising

Centaur
LiniinnentS.

One thing is now thoroughly established. Never
since man safer, d aud human agencies alleviated
pain, has there been aal thing which went so lar
as a pain anninilator and curative agent as the
Ccntaur Lnments. These Linineutz have within
the past yeaI cured more cases OF Rheuu atlsm,
Neuralgia, Stif.jJints, Caked Breasts, Swellings,
Poisonous Bites, Barns, Lame Animals, etc., ETC.,
than all other remedies C imbned. As he name
of Centaur implies half horse and hat man, the
Centaur Liniments are Tor man and beast But
not the same Lnmen.. The Whit. Lioiment is
for man and the yellow for horses and animals.
Herein this Lnmsnt differs from sli other rene
dice, although some OF the ing edents are aliAe IN
each. They contain the well known Witch Hazel,
Arnica, Carbolic, Rock Oil Mentha and other
powerful ingredients.

BLAME BREAKING o

Letter to New Orleans Democrat i
That Cincinnati convention wa a muir.
derous affair. Not only did it politically
kill three men, but it seems to have physic-
ally slain Morton and MORALLY wounded
Blaine. You have undoubtedly noted the
frequency of Blaine's indippositions. Hard.
ly a week passes that he is not confined to
house or his bed for a day or more, and
it has been repeatedly demonstrated that,
his nervous system is completely shattered.
Moreover, the whole tone and aspect of the
man is changed since that-to-him terrible
winter and spring Of 1876. Prior to that
time Blaine was one of the most robust
hardly and athletic men in Washington.
His flesh was firm Is iron, the grip Of his
hand was like a steel trap, quick and de-
%cisive, and the hand itself was warm and
elastic. His step was steady and his tread
streng as the martial gait offs ~grenadier.
But within the last sixteen months Blaine
has become an invalid. His friends, and
he himself may blink the fact, but blinking
does not alter it, and I confidently assert
that Blaine is irremediably broken down.
The old bronze has gone out of his complex
ion, giving place to q dull ashen hue, which
is half pallid and half ghastly; his gait is
slouchey and uneven; his hands arc habit
ually cold, and the flesh is solf, aabby and
inelastic to the touch; his eyes, once so pro-
minent and bright, are now leaden and sunk
in their sockets, while the lower eyelids are
black and swollen. In short, Blaine has
begun to bloat. There can be no doubt his
system presents a general decay, brought
about BY too great strain upon both his men
tai and physical faculties during the winter
and spring of 1876. Into those few months
the work Of years, and during them he suf-
fered agony enough for q lifetime. He was
compelled to fight the whole radical machine,
Grants administration and all inside his
own party, and at the same time to resist q
most determined and CALLING attack from the
democratic house. He organizeda machine
of his own inside the republican party, and
ran it against the Grant machine on the one
hand and the Bristow machine on the other.
The Grant machine had money for its motive
power and the Bristow machine was run by
the t%enthousand- humbug power of Carl
Schurz and reform. Blaine ran his machine
on the blue book and by the power of a
lively sense Of favors to come. He took the
blue book and Organized it by states as
the speaker organizes the committees of con.
gresa. Add to this his industry in congress
and his energy in repelling the attacks
which met him at every turn, and in every
conceivable fashion. In short, no man in
our political history ever made such . cam.
paign with such tireless energy and tremen'
dous resource, or came so near winning la
he did. The labor broke his physique, and
the defeat broke his heart. Blaine may be
set down Is one of. those political leader
whose days are numbered Of life as we'll q,
of politics. He will follow Morton, and
that without much delay. There is no mis-
taking the symptoms which he shows. TIL.
hand Of death is upon him.
