"OIdReItnbies,

There are many reputed remedies
for that very prevalent disease,
Chronic Nasal Catarrh, but none
which have given general satisfac-
ton and become acknowledged
standard preparations, except DIR.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy. 1t con-
tinues to enjoy an unprecedented,
popularity. This reputation has been
earned through thepermanentcures
which it has wrought, having prov
ed itself specific in the worst forms
of the disease. In fact so reliable is
it that its former proprietor offered
through all the newspapers of the
land a reward of $500 for a case of
Catarrh that it would not cure.

THE following advertisements are
taken from a San Francisco con-
temporary:
The gentleman who sat down on
a cream-pie in a Market street car is
known to the lady who had Just
purchased it, and even though he
may have no regard for the hungry
orphans for whom it was destined,
he is urged at once to remit 81 90
and the expense of this advertise
ment to the business office of this
paper 10 save the exposure which
will follow of his disgusting con-
duct.
Right underneath it this Janus of
a journal evidently accepts the
money Of the other side, as the sub
Joined will testify:

amount to the care of A. B., at this

Mr.. Evarts is said to have expressed an
intention to prosecute all foreigners who
may henceforth emigrate to Utah and there
enter into polygamous relations. This de-
termination is said to have been reached
upon learning that large party of Nor
mon converts are On their way to the
United States from Europe, and that they
have been gathered together since the is
sue Of the Secretary's circular to the Eu-
ropean Governments. If Mr.. Eyarts can
extirpate polygamy by such methods, well
and good but we confess that the pro-
gramme appears to us to be full OF diff
culties. In the first place the new arrivals
will almost certainly refrain from carrying
out any polygamous intentions they may
entertain, until they reach Utah. And hay
ing reached Utah it would seem that they
would be beyond the reach of the Govern
ment. At least that is the impression
conveyed by the efforts of the latter to
inforce its laws against polygamy in the
Territory. Prosecutions there have been.
it is true, but it is very certain that they
have been without result SO far as the ex-
tirpation of polygamy is concerned. In
fact they appear to have been abandoned
as useless, and that is the view most likely
to be taken OF such proceedings by those
who have studied the Mormon problem.
1t is in truth very difficult matter to pro-
coed against community, and especially
in relation which enters SO deeply into
their religious beliefs. Right or wrong it
is impossible to prevent them from regard
ing all such measures as prosecutions,
and persecution, as everyone knows, al
ways strengthens faith. This is what
makes the task OF the Government SO diff
cult, and this is why we cannot believe
that Mr.. Evarts has it in his power to
effect anything against polygamy in the
present instance.

A PEOPLE WITHOUT HOMES.

"If," says Mr.. Barham Zincke in tire
Contemporary Revietc, next year. in max
ing our returns for the census, every
=" householder had to state whether he
" lived in a freehold house of his own, or
in leasehold or rented house, it would
be seen that in London, with its 4, geo,
." 600 inhabitants, in all our large towns,
and generally in our rural districts,
alike in England, Scotland and Ireland,
the proportion of those who live in
houses OF their own would be so small as
" to oblige US to feel that in this matter
g we had sunk into category occupied
8" by ourselves alone, that of being
throughout all the world, whether
"civilized or uncivilized, the only dis
"homed nation. Millions of Englishmen,
Scotchmen and Irishmen live in country
which they cali their own, yet no single
acre of which can belong to them. Mr..
Henry George in his work on Progress
"and Poverty " has cited the peculiar con-
dition of landholding in England as dem
onstrating the fact that men will improve
land to which they cannot obtain title in
fee, but Mr.. Zincke states some facts
which initiate against this argument, for
he points out that though leasehold land is
improved, it is scarcely ever improved tcetl.
Houses are built upon it by the score,
but they are merely built to let, and there
is neither architectural beauty nor solidity
nor even comfort about them. Thousands
of them are made alike in all respects.
There is no individuality about them, none
of that evidence of painstaking and pride
which is sure to be shown when men
build on their own ground. In fact TIE
experience of the English seems to justify
the conclusion that absolute ownership Of
land is necessary to the development
of any high standard of architecture
or comfort, and that the leasehold system,
which is what Mr.. George proposes, tends
to produce careless and slovenly building,
and to destroy alike conscientiousness and
the desire for excellence in any direction.
1t may be said that the example of En-
gland proves how well nation can Go
without general ownership OF land, but to
that it may be replied that the effects OF
the monopoly of land have by this time
produced results SO mischievous that a
radical change in the tenure of land is
among the necessities of the age, aud can
not be long deferred.
