Liver Is King,

The Liver is the imperial organ of
the whole human system, as it controls
the life. health and happiness of man.
When it is disturbed in its proper
action, all kinds of ailments are the
natural result. The digestion of food,
movements of the heart and blood,
the action of the brain and nervous
system, are all Immediately connected
with the workings OF the Liver.
1t has been successfully proved that
Green's August Flower is unqualified in
curing all persons afflicted with Dyspe-
psia or Liver Complaint, and ali the
numerous symptoms that result from
an unhealthy condition of the Liver
and Stomach. Sample bottles to try
10 cents. Positively sold and in all
towns on the Western Continent.
Three doses will prove that 1t is just
what you want.

bis supposed representatives said and did
in his behalf.
Mr. Tilden was too reticent at the criti-
cal moment, his attitude before the nation
was altogether too much like that Of an
oriental parsonage whom the people only
see at distance or get glimpses OF on oc-
casions of state. That Mr.. Tilden is not
fact man who would hold aloof from the
people or refrain from clear and positive dec
larations of his views and opinions is IN
uuestionabIy true; his life long services as
democrat, and as true and earnest adj
yocate of all measures Of national polity
Iinaugurated by the democratic party are
conclusive proofs Of his devotion to the in
terests Of the people and his fearlessnest
| in becoming their champion and advocate
But in the supreme crisis of his life, when
something of personal characteristics were
involved in any action or declaration hi
might make, he failed to step forward anC
personally confrontth gigantic outrage tina
was being perpetrsted. and he has forever
lost his grand and golden opportunity
Any information at this late day Of wha
he thought and expressed to his friends re
specting the momentous issues of that ex
citing time are of comparatively little con
sequence except as an explanation OF pas
events and the setting of himself right be
fore the country in the pages of historical
record. Mr.. Tilden was too reticent ant
retiring for the exigences of the times-to
much man of intellectual and philosophy
cal pursuits, and too little man of promp
and resolute action to fill the requirement
of the hour, and fraud gained the presi
dency.

Beautiful Hair.

FROM j. A. TYNEs, A WELL KNOWN
CITIZEN OF WILSON, N, C.-My wife had
suffered for ten or twelve years with a
kind of dry letter, which kept the scalp
covered with dandruff, and caused her
hair to fall out and get very thin and
turned grey, but after using London
Hair Color Restorer," the letter was
cured and the grey hair restored to its
natural color, the hair stopped falling
out and is growing beautifully. By
telling of the effect it had on the head
of my wife | have induced a number
to try it, and | want you to send me a
dozen bottles by express. / enclose
postoffice order for S. to pay for it.
London Hair Color Restorer is sold at

How to Tell that Eggs are Eggs.

A good egg will sink in water.
A boiled. egg which is done will
dry quickly on the shell when taken
from the kettle.
The boiled eggs which adhere to
the shell are fresh laid.
After aegg has laid day or more
the shell comes off easily when boiled.
A freshegg has lime-like surface
to its shell.
Stale eggs are CLASSY and smooth
Of shell.
Eggs which have been packed in
lime look stained and show the &C
ton of the lime on the surface.
Eggs packed in bran for long
time smell and taste musty.
With sthe. aid of the hands or a
piece of paper rolled in tunnel shape
and held toward the light, the human
eye can look through an egg, shell
and ALL ae 44 49,
If the egg is clear and golden in
appearance when held to the light it
is good; if dark or spotted, it is bad.
The badness of an egg can some
times be told by shaking it near she
holders ear, but the test is a danger
Gus one.
Thin shells are caused by lack of
gravel, etc., among the hens laying
the eggs.
Many devices have been tested to
keep eggs fresh, but the less time an
egg is kept the better for the egg and
the onesw no eats it. - E

mothers AS DOCTORS.-Practical
mothers learn much by their exper-
fence with the little bodies entrusted
to their care. Some of the most
common sense facts in the physical
culture of these little ones known to
the more experienced mothers may
not come amiss to those who have
bad but little care of children. The
foundation must be well laid to en-
sure healthy and happy children
The child must be well slept, well
aired, we'll fed and well bathed. BY
thorough understanding and prac.
tice of these four simple rules, much
Of the physical, mental and moral
suffering in life would be avoided by
parent as well as child.

NEURALGIA AND RHEUMATISM. =
A very simple relief for neuralgia is
to boil small handful of lobelia in
half pint of water till the strength
is out of the herb, then strain it off
and add teaspoonful of fine salt.
Wiring cloths ont of the liquid as hot
as possible and spread over the part
affected. 1t acts like charm. Change
the cloths as soon as cold till the
pain is all gone; then cover up till
perspiration is over, so as to prevent
taking cold. rheumatism can often
be relieved by application to the
painful parts of cloths wet in weak
solution of sal soda in water. If there
is inflammation of the joints, the cure
is very quick; the wash needs to be
lukewarm. Country Gentleman.

FEEDING CUT FEED.-ln answer to
q correspondent in regard to feeding
cut feed the Country Gentleman says:
1--WE would; say that we have fed in
that manner for more than 10 years,
and our rule has been to sprinkle on
each large barn or coal shovelful OF
cut hay, about two quarts of water
or just enough to moisten the hay, so
as to make the meal stick, and then
sprinkle on two quarts of finely
ground meal, and mix thoroughly.
This is sufficient for one feed for one
horse. If the horse is at hard work,
twice the quantity of meal might be
used, or even IL quarts for driving
horses. We would use oats and corn
ground together in equal quantities
and fed in the above manner. We
have always kept a large number of
horses and have fed in this manner
almost invariably. We never have
had one get off his feed, or sick in
any way, and they are always ready
for the road or plow."

that an Administration that has killed itself

A DEMOCRATIC paper in South Carolina,
which is q little restless under the present
order of things, has this recent utterance
The unwrtten: laws of South Carolina, like
those Of England, are potent and binding, and
there Is an unwritten law in this State which
says: Hampton, like the King Of England,
can do no wrong, and therefore shall not be
accused of doing one. The penalty attached
to the violation of this law by the press Is,
first, sacrifice of patronage, and ultimately
Of meat and bread, while the citizen who dares
to violate 1t inevitably seals hrs own verdict,
which is sure to be political ostracism."
