MENT OF THIS DISCOVERY.
Celery has only come into public notice within the
last few years nervine, but scientific expert
ments and experience have proved beyond doubt
that it controls nervous irritation and periodic ner
vous and sick headache to marked degree.
But combination of the EXTRACT OF CELERY
AND CHAMoMILE, which has been but recently in
troduced to the profession and the public by myself,
has produced such marvellous results in curing ner
vousness and headaches, and especially nervous and
sick headaches, neuralgia indigestion and sleepless-
ness that it has excited public attention and news
paper comments; and, therefore, give the follow
ing information to the public to avoid answering
hundreds of letters of inquiry about them:
My Celery and Chamomile Pills, for the cure OF
headaches and nervousness, are prepared under my
supervision, and are intended expressly TO cure
headache, neuralgia Indigestion sleeplcssness and
nervousness, and will cure any case where no Or
ganic disease of the brain spinal cord exists.
Hundreds of cases of many years standing have
been cured. No matter how chronic or obstinate
the case may be, permanent cure is morally Ger
tain. This statement is made after years OF expert
ence in their in the general practice OF medicine.
These pills are also valuable for school children
who suffer from nervous headaches caused by an
overworked brain in their studies and for all class
es of hard brain workers, whose over-taxed ner-
vous centres need repair and ISOLATION. Nervous
tremor, weakness and paralysis are being daily
cured by these pills They correct costiveness but
are not purgative.

CHAPTER 1.


1. The kangaroo party that was born of
fusion was of few days and full of trouble.
q 1t came forth as u flower and was cut
down: it heeth like shadow and continueth
not.
B. And dost thou open thine eyes upon such
an one, and bringest me into judgment with
thee?
4. Who can bring a clean thing out of an
unclean? Not one. Let it lie in the barn
over night; perchance it may improve its
odor
5. Turn from it till it shall accomplish as
an hireling its work.
g. For there is hope of a tree If it be cut
down that it will sprout again and that the
tender branches thereof will not cease. M
7. But the Greenback man dieth and vast
eth away, yea, the Greenback man giveth up
the ghost. and where is he? Phit! Gone
where the woodbine twineth! ~
s. So the Greenback man lieth down and
riseth not, till the heavens be no more-he
drieth up: yea, he goeth to sleep and dreameth
of $1,000, ,000,0 600 100000 in fiat money-con-
traction and hyenas.
g. If Greenback man die shall he live
again? Not much
20. His transgression is sealed up in bag,
and his inquity is sewed up: Verify he is
gone into his boots!
IL. Surely the Greenbaclk party cometh to
naught, and the Democratic party is removed
out of sight.
Il. The people prevail ever against them
and they pass away: yea, their countenances
change, and they now smile out of the other
corner OF their mouths: and don't you forget
10. Verify, Solon shall not "put them steers
TO the bows any more, for surely they are not
"hefty" enough to pull the load that is put
over against them. Jon.

Hon. j. G. Blaine, U. S. Senator.

FREDERICK DOUGLASS in paper read be-
fore the Association for the Advancement of
Science Friday denied that the negro exodus
was brought about by the politicians and
spectators in Kansas lands. The cause is
to be found in the wrongs inflicted upon the
negroes by their employers and despair OF
any change for the better. He thinks the
movement unwise, however, and believes
that the men who are soliciting funds to
help it on are really doing an injury to the
negro. He wants the eX-slaveholders OF
the South and their successors not to shape
their policy upon the presumption that ne
gro cowardice and forbearance have no
limit. ''The fever of freedom he said lis
already in the negro's blood, and he is not
what he was just fourteen years ago. To
forcibly dam up the stream of emigration
would be measure of extreme madness, as
well as oppression. 1t would be exposing
the hearts of the oppressors to the pis oil
and the dagger and his home to fire and pill
LACE. The theory of Land and liberty
the watchword of the Nihilistic party in Rus
sia, has music in it sweet to the ears OF
all oppressed people, and well shall it be for
land-holders of the South if they shall learn
wisdom in time and adopt such course OF
Just treatment toward the landless laborers
of the South in the future as shall make
this popular watchword uncontagious and
unknown among their laborers and further
slampedes to the North wholly unknown
and imposSible''

THE New York Tribune publishes letter
written by Mr.. Cornell, the Republican can
didate for Governor in that State, which
shows that he was never disposed to get rid
of paying his taxes. In his return of his in
come to the internal revenue assessor he in
cluded his salary. The assessor sent back
the return. saying that under the decision Of
the Commissioner salaries were exempt
from internal tax. Mr.. Cornell sent the re-
turn back unchanged, saying that he could
not satisfy his conscience that the law would
bear the Interpretation of the Commissioner,
and that he preferred to pay the usual in

THE Nep Religion says one-third of our
voters are literally dragged to the polls. Let
us see. Last Monday about 10000 men in
this State voted. According to the Nelo
Religion, about $1,000 of that number were
literally dragged to the polls. On an aver
age it must require at least two men to drag
the third. This would make 1900 engaged
in dragging the other 1900. This would
indicate that not only was the whole voting
population of the State either dragged or
dragging last Monday, but also that some OF
the citizens of neighboring States came over
and lent their assistance. The story seems
incredible, but it appears in religious pa
per, and a religious paper of course wouldn't
tell lie.

THE Chicago Times independent Demo-

from Maine ''The election in Maine re-
suited in sweeping Republican triumph.
There are gains for that party in almost
every voting precinct heard from, indicating
small majority for Davis on the popular
vote. The campaign was one of unusual
activity, and the issues involved were so
clearly defined and fully discussed that
there need be no mistake as to the signif-
canoe of the result. Is is a deathknell to the
rag baby, and an indication of what the ver-
dict of the North will ever be when con-
fronted by the State sovereignty andnullfica-l
ton doctrines of the South. With such
questions before the people, but one decision
may be expected 1t is fortunate for al
concerned that in Maine the reply has been
