troduced into every house; which may be practiced
at all seasons in all kinds Of weather. by persons of
both sexes, all ages, and degrees of strength or
weakness, alone or in company. No one can say too
much in praise Of it, and no one can afford to do
and consider it Invaluable and indispensable. 1t is
the safest, simplest, cheapest and most efficient
medicine ever discovered No claim is set up for it
which is unscientifc or impracticable.
General.-It Is the best of rest. 1t is perfectly
safe. No harm came from its use. 1t strains
to the affected parts. By its the health is easily
maintained. The purchase of a Reactionary Litter
is the best kind of economy. The convenience Of
having one in the house is very great.
Mind and Brain. 1t invigOrates and
strengthens the brain, and renders il more active
and efficient in all its operations.
Sieep-1t is the simplest and safest narcotic. 1t

The Insolvency Law.


The Insolvency Bill introduced in our
State Legislature by our Representative, Mr..
Mclaughlin, is one Of the most important
matters, and in all probability the most import
ant matter before the Legislature. This bill,
ii passed, would not take effect except In
case of the repeal of the National Bankrupt
Law; in such case, the state, without some
such law as this, would have no Bankrupt
legislation, and we should be thrown back up
on the old ''grab'' law. In preparing this
bill Mr.. Mclaughlin has advised with some
Of our ablest business men and lawyers, and
presents to the Legislature measure, which
well deserves their attention. 1t is still in an
unprotected condition, and is brought for
ward for debate and advisement. Its lead
ing provisions seem well suited for the needs
of the state if the national law should be re-
pealed. The bill divides the state into three
districts and provides for court consisting
OF three judges who may sit separately or to-.
gether, and who are to have Jurisdiction in
Bankrupt matters, subject to an appeal to
the Supreme Judicial Court. AS the bill
NVeSAS sAAho NV P"5Oo oAu Aoo lOU JOO UO-
come law, it hardly seems wise at present to
discuss Its provisions in detail. 1t seems at
first glance, little too much in the interest
of the creditor class, to meet with general ap-
proval in all parts Of the state. Instead of
the present bankrupt provision requiring a
fourth in number and a third in value of the
creditors to put a man into bankruptcy, the
proposed bill makes it possible for creditor to
the amount of only hundred dollars to put
his debtor into bankruptcy, provided he has
committed an act of bankruptcy, and for a
fourth in number of a mans creditors to be
able to throw him into bankruptcy if they
can prove him insolvent. Some of its other
provisions are rather summary. But the bill,
in the main, seems a wise one, and certainly
demands careful consideration by our law

THE Senate Of the United States has dis
honored itself by the passage of the Matthews
resolution declaring the public debt payable in
silver. The majority failed by one vote of
being two-thirds. This foreshadows the de.
feat of the Bland bill, for it cannot pass over
the Presidents veto. Twenty-seven Senators
are known to be opposed to the bill.
