people arc to-day dying from the effects
of Dyspepsia or disordered liver. Tn.

most alarming, making life actually a
burden instead of pleasant existence
of enjoyment and usefulness as in
ought to be There is no good reason

prejudice and skepticism, take the ad-
vice of Drug. lists and your friends,

THE MAINE branch of the Yazoo
Democracy propose the preparation of
an act of villainy, which will damn
the party in that state, ard in fact
throughout the country, if its leaders
have che nerve to carry their deviltry
into execution. The plan is to throw
out the votes of certain election pre-
cincts because of technical Irregular
ties and thereby secure democratic
power in the legislature. In one town
notices Of election were Git is alleged. J
posted but six instead of seven days,
and in another town it is alleged that
but two instead of three notices were
posted. Because of these irregulari-
ties, which at the worst, are only tech
meal, the democracy of Maine pro-
poses to duplicate the Wood County
democratic frauds of few years ago,
and which elected some very plain,
and decidedly emphatic talk neither
prosy nor political, from Chief Justice
Ryan. Let Maine beware. She may
regret when too late.

 FROM GILLETT.-Mr. Geo. E. Weber. Supt. of the Tin Tsp mine and mill, is in town and informs us that the mill is run ming eight hours per day on very rich ore and that lie is shipping to San Francisco S30,000 per month. Waen MT ". took charge of the mine there was an indebted ness hanging over it of some $S0,000, which has been liquidated. The mine has been much improved in developing during the time and on the last day of July there was sufficient money in the hands of the Treas urer with which 10 pay p cent dividend on each share, but the directors decided to use the money in purchasing and putting up hoistiDg works, which are very much needed. The mine is looking we'll and yielding better ore than at any time sInce 1t was discovered.

 A new club has been organized in Reno. It is known as he 'Sit Around Clubu and embraces a large membership. The "Sit Around Club" in character is a sort of cross between the Sazerac Lying Club. of Austin and the Damphool Infirmary, of Eureka Nev. Its bylaws obligate the members to never refuse an invitation to drink, never buy tobacco, and never let anybody tell a story they haven't heard before. In some respects it resembles Congress. When not Tn regular session it is always in extra ses- sion and never appropriates anything to support the Government, or anything else. The club has no President, and all the mem- CTS are Vice Presidents,

Not if it Were Nv Boy.

Some years ago the late Horace Mann, the eminent educator, delivered an ad- dress at the opening of some reformatory institution for boys during which he re- marked that if any one boy was saved from ruin, it would pay for all the cost and care of establishing such an institu- tion as that. After the exercises had closed, in private conversation, a gentle man rallied MT. Mann upon his state. ment and said to him:
 "Did you not color that little, when you said that all expense and labor would be repaid if it only saved one boy ?"
 "Not if it were my boy," was the solemn and convincing reply,
 An 1 there is wonderful value about "my boy" Other boys may be rude and r. ugh other boys may seem to re- quire more pains and labor than they ever will repay; or other boys may be left to drift uncared for to their fuin, which is so near at hand-but "my boy Dit is worth the life time, and the lavish wealth of 8 world to save him from temporal and eternal ruin. We would go the world around to save him from peril, and would bless every hand that was stretched out to give him help and welcome. And yet every poor, wandering outcast, homeless man, is one whom some fond mother called "my boy" Every lost woman, sunken in the depths of sin, was somebody's daughter in her days of childish in- nocenoe. To-day, somebody's son is hungry outcast, pressed to the very verge of crime and sin. To-day, some body's daughter IS 0 weary, helpless wanderer, driven by necessity into paths that lead to death. Shall we shrink from labor, shall we hesitate at cost when the work before us is the salvation of soul?
 Not if it is "my boy," not if we have the love of Him who gave His life to save the lost.

The Latest Variety.

The latest variety of matrimony is reported from Vandalia, Ill. A brother and sister named Fred and Louise Rauckman, children of respectable farmer, living about twenty miles from that city, went to St. Louis and got married. They remained there day or two as husband and wife, and then re- turned homeward, wandering in the woods for day or two near Vandalia, to avoid their parents, who were "much opposed to the match," they said. The young man is twenty-one, and the girl nineteen. They affirmed that they did not know it was against the law, and they "loved each other and thought it would be all right to marry" They have been arrested and sent to jail in default of $500 bail.
