The Inter Oceans Warning to the
Republicans.

The game that the Democrats are
attempting is one that they are ca
gerly playing wherever the oppor-
unity is offered They wish to use
the reenbackers to pull their chest
nuts ont of the fire to accomplish
that which alone and unaided they
could never attain to the end of the
world. Let the honest Republican
members, whom it is sought TO in.
Veigle.into the compact, bolt them in
stantsr, and, coming back into the
old ranks, trust, as does The Inter
Ocean, TO justice and reform at the
har DIS of their own psrty--a party
that never yet has refused to carry
out. the demands OF the people W hen
once thossdemands were plainly ex.
pressed and understood.
The Democrats at the North, act.
uated by their insatiate greed for
power and Influenced by the deter
mination Oft the Southern wing to
succeed to power. will do anything
promise everything, for success.
They will promise to vote green
backs mp or down, 10 or out, degrade
or exalt them, anythipg to gain
control of this government. Let no
honest Greenbacker who has hither-
to acted with the Republican party
be deceived by such promises or lend
bis aid in securing such an object

THE HERALD.
Narrow Escape,


We clip from the Dubuque Herald
the following account Of a freak OF
somnambulism exhibited by the son
of Hon. G. S. Burt, Of Dunleith, Re-
publican candidate for the Legislature:
Had the aim of prominent Dun.
leith gentleman been unerring, our
sister town would have had lament
able sensation. Last Sunday night
Mr.. G. S. Burt and family were sit
ting n the parlor of their residence
previous to retiring Mr. Burt's old
est son. a lad Is years OF age, was
not in the group, he having retired
for the night, as they supposed. All
at once the daughter of Mr.. G. Merry,
who resides next door, came rushing
into the house, and in breathless ex.
citement stated that burglar was
on the roof of Mr.. Burt's house en-
deavoring to make an entrance. Mr..
Burt procured his revolver and went
out determined to greet his burglar
ship with a little cold lead. The
night was very dark, but he could
family discern person on the roof.
Come down from there said Mr..
Burt, and at The same time fired at
the object. He then went to the rear
of the house and assembled the hill a
short distance where he could have a
better view and better chance at
his game. He saw the supposed bur.
glar behind one of the chimneys-his
arm being visible. Mr.. Burt aimed
his revolver again, aud ordered the
person to come down. It's me =
shouted voice which Mr.. Burt rec
ognized IS that of his own son. The
deadly weapon fell from Mr.. Burt's
hand as he rushed upon the roof to
protect his boy, as well as to ascer.
tain the cause of this nocturnal freak.
His son had retired as usual, but in
fit of somnambulism, it is supposed,
he spresumed to walk the night
Before climbing npon the roof of his
own house he had walked over that
of Mr.. Merry, which fact induced
Miss Merry to give the alarm. The
roof of Mr.. Burt's house is easily ap.
preached. 1t is wonder that the
youngster did not fall, however, as
he ran along the edge as fearessly as
a pigeon. But 1t is a curious fact
that somnambulists rarely meet with
accidents in their perilous flights.

The Opinion OF Ben Hill. of Georgia

Senator Ben Hill has been moved to
dip into prophecy on the financial
question. He believes that the fiuan-
cial issues which now divide the Dem
ocrats will soon be settled, and settled
as they always have been, and only
can be, by a ''return to the plain con-
stitutional standard of coin as money,
and to safe paper currency always
equal to, because always convertible
into, coin" lie thinks that when
this result has been reached, men
will be astonished that they allowed
themselves to be deIuded by the wild
theories of financial quaoks, who are
going to make everybody rich by fiat
money, instead of by labor and frugal
ity. Warming up to his prophecy,
Mr.. Hill continues. "Two things may
now be safely predicted of the future /:
the American people, without section
al divisions or exceptions, will return
TO sound currency like other sensible
nations, and will pay their national
obligations like other honest nations.
We shall have first good money, md
hen plenty of It."

The Stepping Stone to Health.

The acquisition of vital energy is the STEP
ping stone to health. When the system lacks
vitality, the various organs flag in their duty,
become chronically irregular, and disease is
eventually instituted. To prevent this I'M
happy state of things the debilitated system
should be built up by the use of that inimita-
BILE tonic, Hostetter's Stomach Btters, which
invigorates the digestive organs, and insures
the thorough conversion Of food into blood Of
a nourshing quality, from whence every mus
cle nerve and fiber acquire unwonted supplies
OF vigor, and the whole system experiences
the beneficial effect. Appetite returns, the
system is refreshed by healthful slumber, the
nerves grow strong and calm, the dependency
begotten of chronic indigestion and an uncer-
taiE state of health disappears, and that sal
low appearance of the skin peculiar to habitu-
al lnvalids, and persons deficient in vital ener-
gy, is replaced by more becoming tinge.

PRoF. Tracy shows the results OF
his appletree wash. His young trees
were largely injured by severe winters,
and he gave them the best care he
could, which has resnlted in the recu
peration of most Of them. In cornec
ton with other care, he gave them
the benefit of an alkali wash made by
thinning good soft soap with water,
and adding little crude carbolic acid
and sulphur. He has no theory re-
garding it but simply exhibits the
eal,hy bark where it has been EN-.
ployed as proof of its efficacy. The
limit of tho washing Is everywhere
easily determined in his trees.

1T is not gold nor goods that
makes a man really wealthy. The
best wealth is of the heart, an en-
lightened mind, a loyal conscience,
pure affections. He is wealthiest
who has the largest stock of wisdom
virtue and love, whose heart beats
with warm sympathies for his fellow
man-who finds good in all seasons,
all providences. all men. The gener-
GUS man who pitles the unfortunate;
the poor man who orders we'll his
life; the loving man who cIings dear
ly to his family and friends; the
studious man who seeks instruction
in all things are the truly wealthy
men.

tic medicine that can be employed: cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-
tions within their range can rarely with
stand or evadc them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffied the best of
human skill. While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. BY
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not infamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
