MR.. LovERIDGE's APPEAL TO THE
BOARD OF PUBLIC WoRKs.-The MINING
JOURNAL, of Frostburg, this week con-
tains the memorial OF Mr.. Loveridge to
The Board of Public Works, asking its in
terterence in enforcing the law against
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad company
After reciting all the points which are ia
miliar to our people in connection win
the railroad troubles and difficulties here
abouts, it re fers to the law wherein the
Baltimore and Ohio road is required to
act as a feeder to the canal and calls upon
the Board to use its power in enforcing
the law. We designed publishing the
memorial in full, but as il appeared yes
terday in the Baltimore papers and In our
county hebdomadal before we were fur
nished with copy, of course we give
room for fresher Observation-Disclosures
Times.
The memorial in full" did not ap-
pear ain the Baltimore papers,
only synopsis. So far as we have
seen the JOURNAL was the only pa
per favored with complete copy Of
the document. OF course, we are
glad moreover, that the Times in
effect agrees with our Annapolis
friends that publication in the jour
NAL was sufficient. We regret, how
ever, to see our contemporary SO
nonchalantly betraying the difficult
ties encountered in learning to steady
itself on stills.

REASONS WHY
nOUR EXHALING FLUIDn
AIleviates and Cures
Certain Diseases

1T Is WELL KNOWN BY MICRO
l. scopists that in certain diseases that
the all passages of patients are infested by
thousands and millions of living organisms
called bacteria these are OF the lowest
forms of life, yet life they have; thus you
may call them little living destroyers Of
life. Thsee are the medium of injection.
The class of diseases in which these
little living germs are playing their death
lypart are; SCARLET FEVER, ASTH-
MA, CATARRu, WllOOPlNG COUGH,
DIpHrHERIA, GROUP, HAY FEVER
and NIL other kindied diseases
To restore health and preserve life these
little pests must be destroyed, and this is
what we claim for "OUR EXHALING
FLUID" to do. Hence its great curative
powers. j. RUllL, NJ. ID.

SENATOR MALONE of Virginia, has
become in some respects the most
important ran in the Senate. He
was elected as Readjuster, and lie
now regarded by his recent vote to
act with the Republicans. By that
addition to their strength they have
thirty-eight votes, precisely the same
number as have the Democrats, If
they can count on Judge Davis, con-
sequently the decision Of all questions
under the constitution, rests on the
Vice President. The powar of both
parties is thus evenly balanced.
Without they are willing to divide
the committees between them there
will be much contention in deciding
the organization of committees. There
has been recently an exciting scene
in the Senate, when Mr.. Hill, Of
Georgia, and General Malone ex-
changed courtesies.

BoYcoTTINa promises to become
weapon Of universal adaptation. 1t
has just been introduced into France,
at Saumur. There is famous caval-
airy school there, a very aristocratic
establishment, which always contains
a number of the gilded youth. The
comm:ssaire de police in Saumur, who
seems to be a disagreeable type of an
official, excited the animosity of some
Of these young gentlemen. They ap-
piled to the Mayor for his dismissal,
which being refused, they Boycotted
the towu. The school consist of $50
memt crs, and for fortnight not one
of them entered a store or made a
purchase. Local trade became paral-
yzed, and the Mayor had to give in.

terests the whole sex, young and old,
pretty and plain, rich and poor, gentle
and simple. No matter how many we'd

other with unhaeging interest and at

The bride is. of course, the center of at

quite intimately stare at her az though
they had never seen her before, devour-
ing each detail of her dress with eager
gances. As a rule, the bride who feels
least looks hest. Emotion of the intense
kind has # IN becoming effect, and in
this age of nerves, agitation is abt to
produce pallor, a tendency to tears, or an
unbecoming flush. Tears seldom beau

in tears, but that is theory. In practice,
their first effect is to redden the eyes;
their second to incarnadine the nose;
their third to develop tendency toward
snifls.
Some years ago all brides wept. 1t
was the correct thing. We had not quite
emerged from the sentimental ear.
Mrs. Heman's poetry was much read,
and we all know how her brides behaved,
weeping on their fathers shoulder and
their mothers bosom, and reciting re-
gretful parting verses, so that one wond.

there. We are more practical now a

rather venturesome thing to do just
yet. She ought, strictly speaking, to
hang her head down a little bit, not so
much as brides did twenty years ago,
but still quite perceptibly. There is no
earthly reason why brides, as rule,
should hang their heads, but fashion de-
crees that they shall. They are going TO
marry the man of their choice. They
are probably leaning on the arm of a
father of whom they are proud. Why
should they hang their heads? Perhaps
fashion provides the custom in order TO
meet the case of the brides who really
ought to hang their heads; those who
are selling themselves for title, for an
establishment, for landed estates-even
for heme. However this may be, ten
years hence the dropping head will have
quite gone out.

Mr.. Beecher on Churches.


"I have read in Roman Catholic pa
per published in New Yory some re.
marks about my sending girl to that
church," said Mr.. Beecher, last evening
81 supposed it would be gratifying TO the
members Of that faith" he continued
"but it seems that it was not. The pa
per says that Mr.. Beecher thinks it
makes no difference whether q person
belongs to any,church or no church; that
all religion is indifferent to him; that he
believes there is no true doctrine, and
that it is of no consequence what man
believesl Well, it does make no differ
ence what he believes unless it makes
him better than this snarling editor
That doctrine is true which makes man
true, and that church is right that most
develops true manhood. The yalue Of
doctrine is to be measured by its power
to develop Christ in human nature.
Whether orthodoxy or infidelity, one
church or another, that is best by which
Christ is born in the souls Of men. For
most things think men have better
chance in our church than in the church
of Rome; but if man can find Christ
best developed in the Roman Catholic
church | bid him Godspeed and say,
Go in 7 And this is not because it is
best, but because it may better form
Christlikeness in him. The object OF
the church is not TO display Praces, but
TO serve az a school to train men,

The Medicines of Russian Peasants.
Chambers Journal.


The Russian peasant has a great dislike
to doctors and will rather suffer any
thing from village quack than put him
self under the treatment of medical
man. Among the laboring class the
treatment of diseases and affections of all
kinds is confined chiefly to old women,
who not infrequently are looked upon as
witches and, as a recent terrible exam
Pile has hown, are occasionally treated
as such. 1t can not be denied that these
old crones possess a certain knowlege of
the virtues of herbs, drugs, etc; and
many cases are on record where they
succeeded in curing inveterate affections
that for years had resisted the doctors
skill. Fevers of all kinds, ague and ma
laria, are among the most prevalent dis
eases in Russia-diseases which it is cur
rently believed haunt the country in the
shape of invisible women, who 90 from

house in search of some human being,
in whom they may conveniently take up
their abode. There are said TO be II
such women, or sisters as they are some
times called-that is kinds of fever-who
visit the patient separately. The first
visitors are as rule only troublesome,
not dangerous; but those that come later

twelfth sister" almost invariably takes
the patients life. BY the latter name
the peasants call the fever and night
sweats which are the usual symptoms of
advanced consumption. Each of these
l2 sisters is supposed to have a great
dislike to some srecial mode of treat
ment. and will at once leave the patient
if il should he resorted to. Thus, for ex-
ample, sister No. ] is afraid of emitting
instruments and sharp tools; and it is
strongly recommended to surround the
patients bed with knives, axes, scythes,
spades, saws, etc. which must be laid

by swallowing large dose of gunpowder.
The ninth sister breads cold water above
all things, and will Immediately leave

There are several other remedies
against fever; but they lose their power
if employed by the uninitated. The
following is rather curious specimen.
The village wizard or witch takes the
patient by the hand and leads him into
the open fields. Here they look about
for an ash-tree which must be little
taller than the patient. The wizard

halves OF the top are then tied together

which the patient creeps, having mean

operation, the wizard mutters certain
mysterious words, which are supposed to
possess some miraculous power. Other
popular remedies against fever and mala-
ria are tobacco, tar and verdigris; and of
late years the peasants have taken
largely to use quinine.

The Nocturnal Cow,
BIZ Nye


With the opening of my spring move
ments in the agricultural line comes the
COW.
Laramie has about seven cows that
annoy ne a good deal. They work me
up so that lose my equanimity. | have
mentioned this matter before, but this
spring the trouble seems to have as
sumed some new features. The prevail
ing COW for this season seems to be seal
brown COW with stub tail, which is ar
ranged as night key. She wears it
banged.
The other day had Just planted my
celluloid radishes and irrigated my royal
Bengal turnips and sown nv hunting
case summer squashes, and this COW
went by trying to convey the impression
that she was out for walk.
That night the blow fell. The queen

heaven and the twinkling stars. All ma

tory where my celluloid radishes and
picked beets are growing, and | arose.
1t was lovely sight.
AT the head of the procession there
was a seal-brown COW with a tail like
the handle on a pump, standing at an
angle of 450.
That was the COW.
Following at a rapid gait was a be-
witching picture of alabaster limbs and
Gothic joints and Wamsutta muslin night
robe.
That was me.
The queen of night Withdrew behind a
cloud.
The vision seemed to break her
all up.
BY and by there was crash, and the
seal-brown COW went home carrying the
garden gate with her as a kind of keep
sake. She bad plenty of garden gates
at home in her collection, but she had
none of that particular pattern. So she
wore it home around her neck.
The writer of these lines then carefully
brushed the sand off his feet with pill
low sham and retired to rest.
When the bright May morn was
ushered in upon the busy world the
radish and squash bed had melted into
chaos and there remained some sticks of
stove wood and the tracks OF COW, in

prints of some Peri or other who evi.

densed strength and eagerness and

There was a deafening crash and then
all was still. save the low, ripping laugh
of the COW, as she stood in the alley and
encouraged me while | nailed up the
hen-house again.
Looking back over my whole life, it
seems to me that it is strewn with moth

anticipations.
