Who n Mrs. VVinslOw!

As this question is frequently asked, we
will simply say that she is a lady who for up
wards of thirty years has untiringly devoted
her time and talents as a female physician
and nurse, principally among children. She
has especially studied the constitution and
wants of this numerous class, and, as a re-
suit of this effort and practical knowledge,
obtained in lifetime spent as nurse and ply
sician, she has compounded Soothing Syrup
for children teething. 1t operates like magic
giving rest and health, and is moreover,
sure to regulate the bowels. In consequence
of this article, Mrs. Winslow is becoming
world-renowned as benefactOr of her race !;
children certainly do RISE Up and bless her !;
especially is this the case in this city. Vast
quantities of the Soothing Syrup are DAILY
sold and used here. We think Mrs. Wins
low has immortalized her name by this in
valuable article, and we sincerely believe
thousands of children have been saved from
an early grave by its timely use, and that
millions yet unborn will share its benefits,
and unite in calling her blessed. No MOTH
Err has discharged her duty to her suffering
little one, in our opinion, until she has given
it the benefit of MIS-. WinslOws Soothing
Syrup. Try it, mothers-TRY 1T Now.-Lo-
dies Visitor, New York City. Sold by all
druggists. 25 cents a bottle.

The First Ballot at Chicago.

As FRI as the fight has gone it is very close
between the Maine Senator and Gen. Grant,
the former leading the latter by only four.
But the ex-President il is admitted on all
sides, has already exhausted his greatest
strength, and is not likely TO secure as many
of the remaining delegates as his popular RI
val. Granting, however, that he could con-
troll every delegate yet to be elected-an utter
impossibility-he would have only 403, or
jus, - more than the all-important number.
In confirmation of this view Of the field The
Press il enabled to-day to present the follow
ing table, showing the States that have al
ready elected in the order OF the date of thei r
conventions, the position Of the men chosen,
and the States. yet to elect. with estimates OF
the latter based upon the most reli-
able information obtainable at their respec-
tive political centres:

there were six of them. One was OF ivory,

The Boston Traveller relates of an old
and wealthy Boston merchant that he has IN
his :.sitting-room" an ancient music box and
several mirrors reaching from floor to ceiling
He loves to take his ease with bowl OF
punch or bottle of brandy beside him. and
for amusement he starts the music box and
calls in his man servants and maid servants,
and has them dance to its music. while he
watches their movements in the mirrors, cor
recring them when their steps are not right,
placidly slipping his punch or his brandy when
all goes well.

niversary of the treaty of peace and the rec
ognition of American Independence by an in
ternational exhibition of arts, manufactures
and products of the soil and mine, to be held
in New York in 1888, was made certainty
by the enactment of Congress WHICH Presi-
dent Hayes approved April %, and the fact
that the Worlds Fair is only two years away
is now brought conspicuously to public at

Governors of all the States nominate two
Commissioners each, as provided by the
enactment.

The Portland correspondent of the Bos.
ton Traveller says: The out and out
democrats are in heap of trouble. Not.
withstanding their disgust with fusionism
they bid fair to have to swallow it again,
IS all the indications point to that result
To add to their nausea the active workers
in the tabulation scheme are striving to
have their action recognized. and desire
to be sent as delegates to Cincinnati. In
this district ex-Councillor Chase of Garce.
Ions Council is striving to be delegate,
and the chances are that he will succeed
ifthe rumors are true that he has secured
the votes ofthe country delegations. He
has been very busy in that direction for
some time past. but there is much opposi-
ton to him in this city
