Trials and experiments followed this determine

by application, entirely subdued all pain and al

disease.
To his discovery Prof Edison gave the name

To Accommodate the Public

The proprietors of that immensely popular
remedy, Kidney Wort in recognition OF the
claims of the pubic which he's so literally pat
ronized them, have prepared liquid prepara-
ton of that remedy for the special accomoda-
ton of those who from any reason dislike to
prepare it for themselves. 1t is very concen-
trated and, as the dose is small, it is more
easily taken by many. 1t has the same effect

or bowels.-Home and Farm.

The Duty on Paper.

The Duty on Paper.
We are glad TO see that Mr.. Muljrow, of Mis-
sissippi, and Mr.. Ford Of Illinois, have intro
dueed bills in Congress placing paper suitable
ior books and newspapers and all materials used
| IN Its manufacture, on The free list.
We cannot too strongly advocafe the passage
by Congress of some measure that will relieve
the people from the present coni&ihation of the
owners of the paper mills in iEz country
While the cost Of labor and materials for manu-
featuring paper have not materi y advanced,
the paper makers have increased THE price Of
news paper from to IL cents pound and tell
US they do not know how long they will sell at
even that price. Under this exorbitaut price a
number Of papers have been compelled to either
increase their price Of subscription or so mate
rally reduce the size of their papers as to de-
prlve their subscribers of q large amount of
reading matter, daily and weekly. Nor does the
evil end with the newspapers; the price of every
school book, law book, scientific and mscel-
laneous work must be increased in proportion
Paper enters largely into the necessities of every
industrial department Of life and tax upon it
is tax upon the industrial and intellectual ad
vanccment Of the people. We con see no reason
for the extraordinary rise in paper. Every we'll
managed mill that we know of was making
money before, and they not paying-in this
part of the country, at least-any higher for rags
and labor. If the duty on paper and tho mate
terials Of which it is made ws>S >jhoyed.. mans
could be imported for cents a pound, and we
are satisfied that our own mills could manufac-
ture it proftaby at that price. If there is not
something done in this matter every school book
and oil other kinds Of reading matter must ad
vance at least so per cent. in price The people
at large are more interested in it than the print
ers ana publishers, for the increased price will
necessarily, be put upon the book paper pur-
chased. We hope our Representatives in Con-
gress will appreciate the Injustice of the paper
mill cxtortion and give the people the advantage
of an open field TO arrest it,
