A CARD.

The manner in which | have been call
ed upon to allow my name to be used as
an independent candidate for Circuit
Judge, leads me to believe that the peo-
pie desire to have this office removed from
the arena of party politics and placed as
it properly should be, upon more Gle
waited and dignitied plane. 1t is an office
of supreme dignity and one of great re-
sponsibility, the life, liberty and proper
ty OF the citizen are to 4 considerable eX-
tent in the keeping Of the court the very
peace and happiness of society, its MORAL
ty and safety depends largely upon the
manner in which courts of justice admin
ister the law.
A Judge therefore should have nothing
to do with politics it is al office which
ever should be separated from them and
thus kept pure and uncontamlnated by
political bias or influences of any charac-
ter Which might affect its purity or indie
pendence.
A sorry day it will be to any people
when the erminc is made the reward OF
political service or made to subseryc po-
litical ends.
now say'to my fellow citizens of all
shades of political opinions that If 1t be
your pleasure To oconfer upon me the non
or will accept the trust with full ap-
probation Ofits responsibilities and prom
iSe YOU faithful and impartial discharge
of the duties Of the Office remembering
az do it is the whole people who are to
gain or loose as the law is properly or
improperly administered.
now place myself before the people as
their Candidate for the Office of Judge of
this Circuit. Very respectfully,
JAMES II. GROVE.

GlvEN.IN LOVE.

A little girl seven years old died in
Philadelphia year or two ago. When
the doctor told her she could not live,
she bid her mother send for the pastor
of the church, and gave him ner little
savings bank.
"Open it" she said. :.
There were four dollars and few
cents.
Take them,' said the child, and build
church for the poor people. Poor peo-
pie, mind, who sit in the back seats OF
our church. They must not pay any
thing. | want all the seats TO he free.
Tie clergyman took the money. My
child he said solemnly, lt shall DO
done. with Gods h,lp.
When the child was dead he placed
her little bank and the pittance il contain
ed on the pulpit, and told her story.
Tears were in every eye, Que wealthy
man after another came forward with
his offering. Children came; women
also; and the poor with their mites.
A week or two ago the completed
church, ready for its poor occupants,
was dedicated 10 that God who willed
that the widows mite and the poor lit
tie childs offering should not tail Of
their errand.
A somewhat similar casa occurred in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin. y poor woman
dying in IN iniirmsry under the charge
of the good Doctor Passavant in Pitts
burg. gave him gold dollar
Il have always triedto give something
TO thoss poorer than myself. she said.
w hen l am dead give this in charity,
and give it if possible in Milwaukee,
my old home
a year passed, and Doctor Passavant
still kept the coin, when he was called
TO Milwaukee TO establish an intirmary
similar 10 his own.
The story of the dollar was told, aud
awakened sympathy. Subscriptions
poured in, and the subscribers with one
voice agreed that the great building
should bear the name Of the poor wild
ow.
Surely no good worIisspoken IN vain.
We may not, rs in these cases. be able
to have the echoes widespread, but God
hears them.

who, from being unable to SIT or lie in
a prustrats position, has been for five
past years doing engineers work in the

The remedy is simple: Procure at a
drug store some white turpentiDe; put
in the mouth bit the size oT pea,
swallow the slowly dissolying substance
and when it is quite soft swallow the

for a cold. This medicine is an old one,
