snakes as Life Dessroycrs.

The loss of life in India due to the ra-
wages of venomous snakes Is almost In
credible. Yet the disease which is as willy
and deadly as the deadliest India reptile,
IS winding its coil around Thousands OF
people while the victims are unconscious
of its presence. II has long been hobby
with incompet. mt physicians to assume
that consuniptiQn IL incurable after the
form alton of tubercles has begun and In
every case they TAIL to effect cure
of course tubercles had begun to form
and they were incurahle The records Of
medical science disprove any such theory
On the contrary, In caseS of lung disease
which had been cured and the patients
lived forty and fifty years In ROBUST health
most mOrfem EXAMINATIONS showed large
ccioairiees (scars) where the tubercles had
heen formed and removed. The tubercles
are removed by absorption into the blood.
An etfici ent Alternative, DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, must be nsed Ia
cleanse the blood OF scrofulous impurities,
tubereular consumption 10 only form
of scr, r,,iulous disease. Golden Medical
Discovery is u sovereign remedy for all
forms of scrofu ious disease, or king's-cvii
such as tumors, white sweilings, fever
sores, scrofulous sore eyes, as we'll as for
other blood and skin diseases.

The Bugaboo of "RebeI Claims"

The Fourteenth Amendment of
the Constitution of the United
States contains the following clause {:
"The validity of the public debt
of the United States, authorized by
law, including debts incurred for
payment Of pensions and bounties
for services in suppressing insurrec-
tion or rebellion, shall not be ques-
toned.
"But neither the United States
nor any State shall assume or pay
any debt or obligation incurred in
aid of insurrection or rebellion
against the United States, or any
claim for the loss or emancipation of
any slave, but all such debts, obliga-
tions, and claims shall be held ille-
gal and void"
In spite of this constitutional pro-
hibition of the acknowledgement Of
the so-called "rebel Claims" such
ultra Republican organs as the New
York Tribune, Philadelphia Press,
Cincinnati Gazette, etc., still declare
that one of the dangers to be ex-
pected from Democratic ascendancy
would be the opening of the Trea-
sury for the satisfaction of these
claims.
1t ought not to be necessary
among an intelligent people to re-
but such preposterous declaration.

THE LITTLE GIRLS RUSE.

A st. Louis paper tells touching
story of school life. In one of the pub
lie schools many of the children who
came from a distance were accustom-
ed to bring a lunch, and thus save a
long walk home for dinner. They
generally ate it together and had a
merry time. Among those who stop
ped, one of the teachers noticed little
girl who never brought any lunch, but
who looked wistfully at her playmates
as they were eating the noon NEAL
But one day the little girl brought
her bundle also, wrapped in paper
At noon she did not go with the others
but remained at her desk, as if prefer
ring to eat alone.
The teacher thinking iher unsocial,
advised her. to go to The lunch room
with her playmates, and walked to-
ward the desk to take her bundle,-
But the little girl, bursting into sobs,
said;
"Don't touch it, teacher; and, oh,
teacher don't tell, please. It's only
blocks"
The poor girl had no dinner to
bring, but wished to keep up "appear-
anceS."

THE BIGGEST DONKEY IN THE
EXCAVATION.


There has been considerable discus
sion among those interested in elevated
railway matters as to the reasons that
have induced the resignation of Cyrus
w. Field as Director of the Manhattan
Railway Company. To various ques-
tions Suggesting different motives for his
resignation, Mr.. Field gave negative an
swers, and then declined positively to
say what were his reasons. He said he
could not perceive how the subject of
his relations TO the Manhattan Railway
Company could be of any interest to the
public. He spoke of being visited by
reporters at his house on Sunday, aud
added that it reminded him of a story
that had been told of Beecher during
the pendency of the great trial. "lt ap-
pears" said Mr.. FieldS "that one of
BeecheI's lawyers complained that he
could not get time TO consult with MIR.
Beecher ABOUT the progress of The case.
AT length be suggested to Mr.. Beecher
that the only available time for con-
ference between them on the subject
would be on Sunday, The lawyer in
quired whether Beecher would be will
Ing TO talk about the case on Sunday.
Beecher replied
"Oh, yes, and I've Scripture warrant
for that, because the Holy Book justifies
the pulling of the ass out of the pit on
Sunday, ,and am sure know of nobody
who could have got into deeper pit, or
have been bigger ass than | have been

One correspondent writes from Cal

a Hancock and English club in that
town are the names of % former Re-
puhlicans, and two of fthese are color

from every part of the state. The

spEEcH oF GENERAL aARFIELp

Gentlemen: believe you are nearly all,
if not all, my constituents, that this is a
home gatherings sort of "Harvest
Home" just after the ordinary harvest,
and Just before that other harvest that
somebody will gather in short time
Tlaughterl and therefore feel the utmost
freedom in meeting you and greeting you.
We have been in the habit in this old
Nineteenth District, for about fifty years
last past, of believing in the existence and
sleadiness Of the North star (applausrJ, and
we have believed in 1t in cloudy weather
daughter and applause) when nobody
could see a star. QLaughter.) Amidst
clouds and darkness this people kept on
believing in it until nearly all the world
saw it, and saw the great constellation
wheeling around its steady and immOvable
center. That North star, the symbol of
freedom and the eqnal rights Of all men,
has been kept steadily in view by the bet
ter people of the Western Reserve these
forty years-from a time long before these
"first voters" were born. These young
men were born into the beliefln It and will
not be likely to forget 1t, because it now
shines plainly in the northern heavens.
(Applause.) To speak without a figure,
the people of this old Nineteenth District
long ago learned to be content with being
right, even when they were in an appa-
rently hopeless minority.
Your speaker has referred to Joshya r..
GIddings. Think Of the long, hard strug
gle, when he was ostTaoised by all men eX-
