An Earnest wish.

Rev. Z. F. L. Gauss, Galena, ILL.,, writes:
"For oyer ten years have been great sufferer
from pains in the small of the back and region
of the kidneys, which was mosta aexcruciating
and at times almost insuierabe Doctoring
brought no relief, except perhaps momentarily,
and was finally advised, being unable to full
fill the duties of my calling, to go abroad and
seek the climate Of my youth. In Germany
and Switzerland, eminent physicians, after close
examinations declared my suferngs to arise
from disease of the kidneys. of long standing,
and could do me no good. / was, however,
benefited by the climate and consequently re.
turned. No sooner had been back and resumed
my pastoral wor< when the old trouble grew
again so intense as TO make life burden. A
few months ago came in possession Of one of
Days Kidney Pads, put it on, and the effects
were truly wonderful. The pains at once grew
less and are now, after wearing the second pad,
entirely gone, and there can be no doubt that

Senator Edmunds of Vermont


has been reelected without opposition for an
other term. This is an event of national inter
est, for Mr.. Edmund's long experience, remark
able ability, and special knowledge, his cour-
age, readiness, and judicial temperament, with
his sturdy honesty and simplicity, combine to
make him an invaluable Senator There is
something essentially American, and American
of the best type. in his character and career.
He is a very strong party. man, without being
party bully. Republicanism represents to
him the principles which most certainly pro-
mote true national union and greatness, but his
good sense and his shrewd humor save him
from the absurdities of mere partisanship. Mr..
Edmunds Is one of the ablest and most thor
oughly equipped of the lawyers in the Sentate,
and an important speech of his is exhaustive of
its subject. His speech upon the Electoral Bill,
for instance, was clear, comprehensive, conclu-
sive, and when he sat down the argument was
complete. Vermont and the country are both
to be congratulated upon the presence of such
a man in the Senate-Hdrpers WeekIU.

will endeavor to give more light on the subject,

THERE IS A BALM IN GILEAD.

The success which has marked the introduction
of Cream Balm, Catarrh remedy, prepared by

has not enjoyed for fifteen years through the
use of the Balm. She had given up her case as

it in his family and commends it very highly.
