STANDING TREAT.

One of the most foolish customs in
the world is standing treat for drinks:
other things are not bought in this
way. Boys, If yeu want to be gen.
erous and treat each other, why not
select some other place besides the
liquor shop: Suppose. as you 60 by
the post Office, you remarks: 81 say
my dear fellow, come in and take
some stamps ?'' These stamps viii
cost you no more than drinks all
round. Or go to the habeidasher's
and say: "Boys, come in aud take q
box of collars.n Walk up to groc-
er's free and generous, aud say !:
s.What kind of coffee will you havee'
Why not treat to groceries by the
pound as well as liquors by the glass;
Or take yoar comrades To a cutters
and say: I'll stand a good pocket
knife all round"
Suppose q man should keep den
of rattlesnakes, and allow men TO
come in and be bitten for ten cents
bite, would it be sensible thing for
a man to invite all his friends in to
be bitten at his expense !? Is it
worth while TO turn our friends into
brutes, inaniacs, murderers, aud their
homes into hells of trouble aud dis
tress, by giving them sssomething te
drink at my expense ?n-7Ae Ussion

Ague Cure

Is a purely vegetable bitter and power
full tonic, and is warranted a speedy and
certain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills
and Fever, Intermittent or Chill Fe-
Periodical or Bilious Fever, and all
malarial disorders. In miasmatic dis
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst,
lassitude, loss OF appetite, pain in the back
and loins, and GOODNESS OF the spine and
extremities, are only premonitions OF
seYefer symptoms, which terminate IN tie
ague paroxysm, succeeded by high fever
and profuse perspiration.
It is startling fact, that quinine, arse
mic and other poisonous minerals, form the
basis of most of the Fever and Agne
Preparations, :" E" Specifics" "syrups," and
"Tonics," in the market. The prepara-
fions made from these mineral pols5ns,
although they are palatable, and may
break the chill, do not cure, but leave the
malarial and their own drug poison IN
the system, producing guinism, dizziness,
ringing in the ears, headache, vertigo, anu
other disorders more formidable than the
disease they were intended TO cure.
AYERS AGUE CURE thoroughly eradicafes
these noxious poisons from the system.
and always cures the severest cases. 1t
contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injure the most delicate pa
tient; and its erowning excellence, above
its certainty TO cnre, is that it leaves the
system as free from disease as before tho
attack.
For LIVER Complaints, AYER's AeUE
CURE, by direct action on the liver and
hillary apparatus, drives out the polsons
which produce these complaints, and SUM SUM
ulates the system to vigorous, healthy
condition.
We warrant It when taken according to
directions.

THE FAIL CAMP lens

There Will not be much interest in politics
tins fall until the campaign begins in this State
In fact, New York is the only Northern State
which promises to afford the country the spec-
tacle of tolcraby brisk contest. In Massa-
chusetts the old State officers have heen re-
nominated without opposition and will he
elected after the mere form of "a canvass is gone
through with. The Ohio election is too close at
hand FOR the feeling of grief over the death of the
PRESIDENT to become tempered sufficiently for the
people to engage in ordinary campaign work.
There viii unquestiOnably be "a light vote. and
the reelection of Governor Foster may be ex-
pected by decisive majority. In PENNSYLVANIA
the only interest in the canvass comes from the
independent candidacy of Mr.. Wolfe. If he
were out OF the field, the regular Republican
ucket would have an easy victory. But he is
determined to stick, and is evidently mastering
considerable following. If his efforts produce
any result it will be to elect the Democratic
candidate; but as there is only single Office to
NIL, and that an unimportant one politically, the
election cannot in any event be considered n
significant one, save for its bearings upon the
future home politics of Pennsylvania
In Ncw-1ork there are many elements of in
terest in the approaching campaign. There is
the effort of Mr.. Conkling to be continued in
the self-assumed place of party dictator. and
the question of how far the success or failure of
That effort will affect the size of the Republican
vote and the result of the election Then there

of the death, resignation, absence or sick
ness of any Head of Department" an assis-
tant is empowered and required to perform
his duties, and under Section 1872, will draw
the pay of the Head of Department whose place
he fills.
Where is there room for anarchy Every
officer of the Government reports to and takes
orders from one or the other of the Heads of
Department. He has no business to ask by
whose direction his orders are given. 1t is
enough for him to know that they come from
the officer placed over him by law. In every
detail of the business OF government, except
the few which by law require the Presidents
personal signature, the Government would go on
precisely the sameif here should for time be no
President. Some offices might become vacant,
which could not be filed until new Presi-
dent had been elected. In all other respects,
the Government would move on with Heads of
Departments in charge of Executive business,
precisely as if they were directed by living
President.
In view of these facts, our Democratic
trends may MS well stop shrieking about the
possibility of anarchy. The Fathers did not
set up a Government which could, not 60
alone. They framed, with marvellous wisdom,
Government under which anarchy is i'm
possible,

MR. NiCYEAGV,S RESIGNATION

The public learns with regret that Attorney
General MacVeagh has determined to retire
from the Cabinet as soon as his successor is APP
pointed and confirmed. He has been so
closely identified with the reform work of the
Administration that the hope was entertained
that he would remain to continue the efforts
well begun. His retirement by no means
indicates that these efforts are to cease indeed,
he expresses the hope and belief that President
Arthur will engage heartily and thoroughly in
the good work Still, people would have rec
ognized a peculiar appropriateness in his re-
naming at the head of the Department of Jus
tice at least until the Star Route prosecutions
are finished.
There is another reason besides his active
cooperation with Mr.. james in the arduous
task of purifying the Post Office Department
why many people desire that Mr.. MacVeagh
should remain in Office. He represents in the
Cabinet the most advanced theories of Civil Ser
vice Reform. Some of his ideas are, perhaps,
impractical in n country where Office is carly
sought as n distinction, and where the great
mass of officials from road -mastcr up to Con-
gresham are chosen mt popular elections as a
reward Tor party services but at least nine
tenths of the Republicans believe that the pre-
sent system of disposing of Federal Offices is
capable of great Improvement, and like to see
men in high places who are earnestly in favor
of progress in the right direction. Civil Service
Reform il a Republican idea, and whatever has
been accomplished toward its realization in the
practice of the Government has been by Rcpub-
lican effort The presence in n Republican
Cabinet of one who has long been an ardent
advocate of this idea is welcome to the great
majority of the Republican party.
Mr.. MacVcagh will return Ia the law practice
in Philadelphia which he laid aside last spring
at considerable personal sacrifice. We hope his
place at the Cabinet table viii he filed by one
equally independent, fearless and able.
