From MT. Richard Case, of Cantons
 Conn.

For the past twenty years I was afflicted with Catarrh, which affected my throat to such an extent as to make my life misery. I would wake up at night with sense of suf- location, as though some one was strangling me, expecting every moment to be nay last. My suffering was SO severe that I was afraid to go to bed, and often did not dare to. Ten years ago my hearing became also impaired from the effects of catarrA and gradually grew so bad that of late it was quite difficult for me to hear. Two months age I placed myself under Dr. Lighthill's care, and the re- suit of his treatment has been truly wonder full. The trouble in my throat is completely removed, I sleep and breathe as comfortably as baby, my hearing is restored, and my health has so much i'm proved that I feel like a new man. In fact such a change for the better has been wrought in my case that I thank God daily from the bottom of my heart for bringing Dr. Lighthill to Hartford and for directing me to him. I am 64 years of age and have lived in Hartford county nearly all my life, and if the blessings and prayers of an old man are of any avail, the happiness and pros perity of Dr. Lighthin is assured.

 Hartford, Feb. II, 1880. Dr. E. B. Lighthi1
 Dear Sir-Prompted by feeling of justice to you and a sense of duty to the public, take this method of expressing my grateful appreciation of the able and skillful manner in which you treated my wife for Catarrh. When placed her under your professional care she suffered so severely that she could scarcely obtain any rest at night, but your first application afforded decided relief and your subsequent treatment has proved per- fectsuccess. In the course of my experience have seen 8 good deal of physicians and medical practice, but must confess that your method of treatment for Catarrh is superior to anything that has yet come under my ob- servation, and in fact is so rational and effec- tive that it must commend itself at once to every unprejudiced mind.
 Yours truly, D. A. ROOD.

It is noted that NJ Giraud's idea of a tax on idleness, or persons of fortune who do not intend to follow any occupation, proposed by him recently in the French Chamber of Dep- uties, is not new and really belongs to M. Alexandre Dumas, who put it forward in the
 Question dArgent." He defines it as fol- lows as a civil conseription: 'It is the most simple thing in the world and would serve a substitute for the military conscription, for it is probable that in given time all the na- tions will be united by interest, art trade and industry, and war will disappear from the face of the earth. Society will then only de- mand from men the tribute of their intellec- tual capacity. When man shall have con- pleted his twenty-frst year the State will ask him, What career have you adopted2 What are you doing for your fellow-creatures ? Nothing, sir Do you mean to work ? No, I do not intend to do anything Then you have a fortune? Yes, sir Well, sir, you are free not to work, but you must pro- vide substitute You will pay so much a year for those who have no fortune to work in your place, and we will then deliver to you carte de paresse, by means of which you may go about unmolested. y

A very shocking story is telegraphed across the Atlantic Az little girl in Madgeburg wandered into burying ground, which is under the charge of the chief sexton, and pIucked flower from one of the graves, un- conscious of offence. The sexton caught her in the act and determined to infict a punish ment which should efectually deter her from despoiling his graves for the future. So he dragged the terror-stricken child away to the dead house, in which four corpsss were lying on biers, thrust her in, locked the door and went about his business. It was already late in the day, and the sexton, according to his own account, having finished his work, forgot all about his tiny prisoner incarcerated in the charnel house, and made fast the cemetery gates for the night.
 Next morning, returning to work at the usual hour, it suddenly occurred to him that he

That noble specimen of manhood, the
average Atchison citizen, is gradually
crawling into the lap of luxury. Last
81 INNER he had no telephone and no
Turkish bath, now he can bawl himself
into perspiration, using the first, and
them calm and clean his irritated frame
at the second. Within the last few weeks
his library resources have been increased
by a new public library with money
enough to run it for year.. After next
Sunday week he will get his letters and
papers from a newly and gorgeously ar
ranged postofice. After the first of
March should he have business with the
city clerk, or city marshal, he will find
them not in hired lodgings, but in the
city's own new and gorgeous structure
on Sixth street near Santa Fe. When he
wishes to take the train, few months
hence, he will depart from the new and
pallatial union depot, where he will en-
joy the luxury of waiting for trains in
spacious and we'll furnished rooms, in
stead of standing around on the platform,
exposed 70 the pitiless cussedness of a
Kansas storm. When he is wishing to
disport himself of an evening in the near
future, he will applaud the finest dra-
matte talent procurable in America from
the cushioned chairs of a new opera
house. 1t seems to US that, with all he
has and sll he is to have, the average
citizen of Atchison ought to be content.

State Sovereignty.

Only two words, and lie at that, but
they have cost a million lives, four thou
sand millions of money, and the honor
of a mighty nation, and they will not
down even now. To-day, in half our
territory the name of liberty is fraud,
suffrage is a mockery, and the pre-
tence of popular government is fragrant
falsehood, and all because of these two
words. The thing they mean alone made
the rebellion possible, it hampered our
every effort, and when armed resistance
was no longer possible, and we had it by
the throat; we let 60, and what is the
result?

A Common Nuisance.

IF there is any nuisance worse than the
exchange fend it is the book borrower.
Newspaper men are especially bored by
them, and often put to serious inconven-
fence. Fellows of literary turn who
never owned book of their own, rush
to the nearest editor when they require a
work of reference, to "borrow it for just
a moment" which moment is fated to
expire some time in eternity. If you
secure valuable compendium of Biog,
raphies Connecting invaluable and OF
daily use in newspaper ofice), Smith
around the corner has it when you want
it, and Smith nor the book can be found.
A chap who is always disputing with
somebody has lugged off your unabridg.
ed to settle dispute as to whether per-
spire and transpire do not mean she same
thing, while as to your "Synonymes''-
the Lord only knows where it is. Some
school student or other is sure to have
your hand. book of statistics, and SO it
goes. None of 'em ever borrow the Con-
gressional Globe, or LeDuc's reports on
the improved methods of sowing boiled
strawberries. II they would we should
occasionally indulge in sentiment OF
forgiveness, but you can't give those
books away. It's only something that's
of some sort of use that the borrower
wants, and it's of so much use that he
never thinks of returning it.

Handy to Know.

Fire insurance policies do not include
in the indemnity, among other things,
the following:
Fences and other yard fixtures also
store furniture and fixtures and plate
glass, doors and windows, when the
plates are of the dimensions of three feet
or more. It is important that this fact
be mentioned in the wording of the pol
icy, if such articles are to be included
under the policy. Careless, ignorant or
unsophisticated brokers and agents, very
frequently make mistakes in this respect.
The following articles also are not in
cluded in the security of fire insurance
policy, unless mentioned, viz: Jewelry,
plate, watches, musical instruments, or
naments, medals, curiosities, patterns.
printed music, printed books, engrav-
ings, paintings, picture frames, sculp-
tors casts and models. money or bullion,
bills, notes, accounts, deeds, evidences of
debt, or securities. These should always
be specified.
TIA building falls, no insurance will
attach, or cover its loss, unless it is caused
by fire. Stolen property is not to be
paid by the insurance company. Losses
from explosions are not to be paid, un,
less fire ensues, and then only the actual
fire loss is to be settled for. Property
standing on leased ground must be SO
represented to the company, and ex-
pressed in the policy. Goods on storage
must be represented as such.
The assured, in case of fire must inva-
riably do his best to save it, and care
lessness in this respect will vitiate his
claim. In no instance shall he abandon
his premises to firemen or thieves.
When party has trustworthy and
intelligent representative, agent or
broker, whose business is to study these
points and consult his own and assured's
interest, by SO doing it is sometimes
safer to risk it than by attending to the
insurance himself-PhiladeIphia ms

Census Tricks.

As there is a great deal of talk about
the forthcoming census, it may be we'll
to warn people against pretended off
Gals who will no doubt attempt to per-
petrate fraud under the guise of gather
ing statistics for the census. The game
has already been begun in some states.
A good looking person armed with
blanks and papers that give him an air
of official responsibility drives up to a
farmers house and asks him for infor-
nation about his crops of grain, potatoes
and other farm produce, the number OF
acres he has in cultivation, the number
of head of cattle he owns, and other facts
connected with his vocation, all of which
is carefully noted on his blanks. Then
the farmer is requested to sign his name
at the bottom of blank space on the
paper to verify the Information and
here is where the trick comes in. The
farmer may unsuspectingly append his
signature without asking questions if

official, bidding him good day, takes hi.
departure, goes off and writes over the
signature promissory note for 500,
5000 and $500, and sells it to the near
est bank or note buyer, and the farmer
knows nothing of the fraud till the note
falls due, and he is notified by the limo
cent holder to come forward and pay it,
As we have taken frequent occasion to
warn farmers and Others, they cannot be
too wary of strangers, who under one
pretence and another, ask them to sign
their names to papers. In nine times
out of ten there is \ fraud intended. The
census law does not require persons to
sign their names to papers at all.-6.

The foot was turned in, and the Weight of the body fell, in walking, upon the ankle joint. Last summer, Armstrong sent his wife, with the child, to the Kansas City Surgical Insti- ute for treament, where they stopped for several weeks The result is, that now, when the boy walks, no deformity can be discovered, and the bright little fellow seems to salize the great benefit derived fom few weeks stay at the Surgical Insti- tute. The second trip was made n few days since and mother and son returned home to-day, the hoy being entirely well and carries crutch only as precaution against making misstep. Mrs. Armstrong. pre- vious to the birth of this child, when as eending pair of stairs, accidentally slipped and in falling her left foot was twisted in ward, and this is given as an explanation of the cause why the child was thus deformed.
 The Kansas City Surgical Institute has done a neat piece of work in this instance, and it is entitled to commendation therefor. They advertise to cure and make straight almost any of tue deformities that hu- man nature is subject to, and we doubt not but what their proficiency in correcting de- formities cannot be excelied

TIE eREArrsr IN TIE WORLD.

Without question Buffalo, N. Y., can boast of the largest and most complete private Sanitarium in the world. The Invalids' Hotel was founded by Dr. k. ". Pierce, who has represented his district as State Senator, and in Congress, and is known throughout the United States as .he originator of Dr. Pierce's Family Medicines, and who has also become widely celebrated in the treatment of chronic diseases. The erection of this mammoth home for invalids was made necessary by the large number of afflicted who Hooked to Buffalo from all parts of the United States to consult Dr. Pierce and the eminent medical gentlemen associated with him as the faculty of this celebrated institution. The establishment is said to have cost nearly half million of dollars, and is fur nished with every appliance and facility for the care of chronic ailments. A corres- pondinglylarge branch institution is located in London, England. The whole concern is owned aud operated by the World s Dis pensary Medical Association, of which the original Dr. Pierce is President--his brother, an uncle. and other eminent medical gen. tlemen taking part i'll the treatment of cases. In treating cases they are not at all confined to the narrow limits of prescribing the justly celebrated remedies, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, Pleasant Purga- tive Pellets, or any other set remedies, how ever good, but have resort to the whole range of the Mdterid Medicq, as well as to Turkish and other baths, Swedish move ments and other approved remedies and methods of cure.
