Where Helm is Needed

Is at that sorrpwful stage Of life when ire blood
and system have become impoverished by old age
or disease. Parker's Ginyer-Tonic is powerful
invigorant, and affords just the help that the
aged, the feeble, and the convalescent require,
because it insures perfect digestion and enjoy.
ment of the food, enriches the blood, and arouses
the dormant energies Of the debilitated organs.
While it never intoxicates nor creates any desire
for stimulants, it difYuses warmth and vigor
throughout the system, renews the appetite,
sOothes the nerves, banishes melancholy, and
gives strength and elasticity to the worn out
frame. Many other highly curative properties
not possessed by Ginger are added to this pleas
ant remedy, making it entirely different from
Essence Of Ginger and free from their constipat-
ing effect. Buy 81 90 bottle from your drug
gisr, Il. b. Stevenson, or . sample bottle at L
cts, and test its extraordinary merits.

From An Para


OF the country reports come Of the immense
sales and Increasing demand for that deservingly
popular Sewing Machine, the Old and Reliable
STANDARD, !" the price Of which the proprietors
wisely reduced 10 90 including all the attach
ments, and at onoe secured for them popularity
among the people, far beyond that ever attained
by any other machine ct any price, the cOnse-
quence of which is, agents are leaving the old
high priced machines and seeking territory for
the "Snndsrd.' Knowing from experience
that with thebest goods at the lowest prices they
can outsell all other machines, where the superior
quality and low price Is made known. This
splendid machine combines oil the improvements.
It is far ahead Of all Others in beauty and dura-
bility of its work, ease Of management, light
running and certainty Of operation, Is sensibly
made upon sound principles. with positive work
ing parts all steel, and can be safely put down -
the very perfection Of serviceable sewing ma
chine, in every particular that win outlast any
machine, and at . price Car down below any other.
1t is thoroughly warranted for I've years. Kept
in order free Of charge And sent to any part Of
the country for examinations BY the customer
before payment Of the bill. We can predict
equally large demand for them in this section
as in others. Families desiring the best nschine
manufactured should write direct to thu factory.
And enterprising persons wishing to seize the
chance should apply for 80 valuable IN agency.

The State Sunday School Convention

| This organization met in its thirteenth annual
session in the NJ. +. Church of Topeka, on Wed.
ne.day the 2sd inst, at 2:3J p. NJ. There was g
full attendance at the first meeting and the mum.
Der AID interest steadily increased throughout the
session. Between thirty and forty counties OF
the State were represented, by something over
two hundred delegates.
The statistical Secretary's report showed that
| forty counties have completed their organization
and sent in full reports of their work There
were partial reports from twenty counties and nc
| reports from seventeen counties.
The estimated population of the State was 500,
90. Number of children of school age, 200, 600
Number Of teachers and officers, ,7a5. Number
| Of scholars, 81 1856. From this report it will
be seen that only q little more than one
| eighth Of our population are enlisted in Sabbath
! School work. What field therefore lies open to
| those who are interested and engaged in this
| cause! 1t was the opinion of this Convention
| that by far the surest and most effective way OF
spreading and strengthening the Sabbath School
| work is through the township, county and dis
| trict organizations. A moments reflection ought
| to satisfy anyone that given amount of labor
judiciously expended through organized chan
nels will accomplish more than twice the amount
spent at random.
Moral-lst Sabbath School workers. keep an
accurate record of what you are doing in your
own school and give it as statistics when called
for. I'd. Encourage the township, county and
district organizations and let them encourage and
help you by being present at their meetings. Sd.
| Be missionaries in the Sabbath School Cause
Strive to get the people in your neighborhood
who do not attend Sabbath School to JOIN one
and take part regularly in the services.
This work must not be exclusively among the
worldly; there are hundreds Of prOfessed chris
| tisns who need to have this duty pressed upon
| them The Sunday School is . Bible school; but
men never get too old or too wise to learn from
| the Bible.
Ofcomse any detailed account of the work OF
the recent State Convention can not be given
here. The man Of the occasion was the Rev. j.
H Vincent d. D., of New York, popularity
known Is the ''Sunday School Bishop Of Amer
| isa." Most Sunday School people know some
thing of his power, but in these meetings, he
seemed almost to surpass himself.
1t was also an agreeable surprise to see the
large number of very able and efficient men and
women in this department who belong here in
our own State. Your correspondent actually
cunght something of the characteristic Kansas
pride in what Is her own. Yours,

In the course Of. recent lawsuit in New

The suit was brought by carpenter to re.

ascoan. eS,endinE from the year 1882 Y
his employer should pay for his work nj
the prevailing prices, and, rs the payments
were made piecemeal, without any settle

It was submitted to the consideration OF a
committee Of carpenters, who prepared the

We venture the assertion, that no West
Virginia Representative ever made the bril-
liant record, or welded thcinhuencc, both
In the House and in the departments,
within the first term OF his Congressional
service, that were made and welded by
Gen. Latham, His speeches in the House
OF January Sth, and. May Goth, 1866, on
the issue involved in the question OF
Reconstruction, give abundant evidence OF
his ability, his independence OF thought
and action regardless OF partizan control,
and OF his comprehensive craftsmanship.
Even at that early day he earnestly advo-
Gated local Self.goverment forthe Southern
States, and predicted that the military re,
construction acts OF Congress never could
give peace and restore harmony and good
will 10 the country. His labors in behalf
OF tho Tariff bill (which Mr.. Martin wants
repeatedly, the West Virginia War indemn.
ity claim, 1.-THE conduct OF which, In tile
House, by Messrs Latham and G. d. Hub.
bard OF the LIST District was master piece
of Parliamentary management, his labors
in behalf OF the citizens OF Harpers Ferry,
with regard to the Improvement OF the
Government property at that place, and
many other acts Of bothspecal and general
importance, which have tho imprint of his
influence stamped upon them, attest the
wisdom and fidelity Of his service. But
the act above all othors, which ought to
have recommended him to the delegates
from the Eastern Panhandle, Is that
recognizing and confirming the annexation
OF Berkeley and Jefferson counties 70 the
State OF West Virginia. When the friends
Of the bill were afraid to trust 1t to a,vote OF
the House, Gen. Latham wIs rlllpd upon
TO prepare aud condense tho history Of the
affair and to cite the law applicable to the
case. This was labor Of much import
ance and no inconsiderablc magnitude, and
was 80 promptly and ably performed that
In q few daysa printed paper was laid on
the desk Of each member, 40 concise in
detail and convincing In argument that
the bill passed the House by ll2 to "a and
the Senate by 23to5. Indeed his congress
sional career was so active and consistent
that before Its close he had won the esteem
and confidence OF all his associates, and his
Influence with tho President and Cabinet
was such, that no could control tho patron-
from Congress was offered, unsolicited, his
choice between the Collectorship Of his
District, Tie position Of Minister resident
at Bankok, Siam, or the .oonsulshtp ut
MeibGurn, Australia. He accepted the
latter, and during the first month OF his
service in said position, he detected fraud
upon tho revenue Of the country which
wa. settled by o fne Of seventy.tivG
thousand dollars paid into the U. s, Treas
Eury. He afterwards, apart omthe duties
Of his office, engaged In the collection Of an
Indemnity claim against the FIJI Islands
! in favor Of citizens Of the United States o.
forty.five thousand dollars, all Of which he
collected in gold and paid into the treasury
before his return home In 1870.
