As to ss Going West"

1t would be good thing if the indis-
criminate advice to young men "Go
West" were largely curtailed. For
tunately, advice, like most cheap things,
is much disregarded, vet only too many
young fellows have followed this West
ern injunction to their sorrow. Mistak-
ing restlessness for energy, and general
discomfort for fiery ambition, they do as
everybody tells them to do and turn
their faces towards the setting sun.
Their dismal careers sometimes come to
light and sometimes don't but there is
no stoppage of the advice mill.
As matter of fact. for a vast majori-
ty of young men, going West is about
the worst thing they could do. Where
there is one young man brought up in
the civilization of the Eastern commu-
mites, who is fitted to face the rough
work and the temptations and the So
cial laxity of the frontier, there are
scores who would be ruined thereby.
To such as these, advice to $50 West
is nothing more nor less than advice to
go to the dogs.
1t is true that for men of strong con-
stitution, firmness of purpose and char
acter, and above all, frugal habits, the
great undeveloped fields of the West
offer many chances of success. But
young men of this class are not over
plentiful. They are out-numbered by
young men who prefer repose tc
WEAKNESS of the flesh, and recreation to
self-denial and hardship. For the young
man of this stripe, the West is no place
Remaining at home, surrounded by so
cIal restraints and obligations, there are
chances that he may become comfor-
table and respectable. Out West the
chances are overwhelmingly in favor oi
his becoming tramp or aruffian. Th'
Young man who has in q amarked degre'
the qualities and the habits that woul6
ensure him success in the East may per
haps make them more profitable by tax
ing them West. The young man who l
not especially provided with these quail
fications had best remain at home anC
take his chances. 1t would be well
this were oftener stated and better uE
derstood.- Sunday Voice.

Foods.

The matter of foods, as relates to the
best forms and methods of using, 50 as
to supply nutrition to the human organ
ism, Is subject SO important no wonder
IL proyokes continued and extended dis
cussion. It Is q field in which empires
flourish as well as men of eminent sci
entific accomplishments, and the views
expressed are diverse, conflicting and
often very absurd. At one time class
of vegetarians provoke public attention
by their clamor; at another, men who
would banish all forms OF vegetable
foods hold the field, and mankind are
declared to be carnivorous animals and
must be fed, like lions and tigers, only
with flesh foods. Experiments have
been conducted often and persistently
to prove one or the other class of opin-
ions erroneous, and however conflicting
NAV be views of the results, one point
has been settled, and that is, that human
beinps can exist and flourish on either
kind of aliment, or on both kinds to-
gether, in any proportions that fancy
NAV dictate. This, however, does not
place beyond the field of controversy
the question as regards the best forms
of food for the weak and sickly, those
whose organs of digestion and assimila-
ton are impaired in functional activity.
Wheat is wonderful cereal, and in its
chemical composition the evidence of
design is so apparent that one must be
stupid indeed who does not discover it.
There is not function OF the body that
can not be sustained upon the principles
stored up in the wheat berry; and there
Is not q nerve or tissue that can not be
nourished and fed by it alone.
As regards the distinction, nutritvely
considered, between the whole grain
and the white -four of the interior parts,
there is no room for doubt or dispute.
It is the whole grain which constitutes
perfect food; the white flour is incapa-
Bile of affording complete and healthful
support under all conditions of human
existence. The white loaf is very beau
tiful and fashionable, but it does not
contain the phosphates of magnesia,
lime and soda which are found in the
brown loaf. These salts are stored for
some wise reason, doubtless in the bran
or outer covering of the grain, and they
are certainly lost to large extent In
the boiling process.
Nature is wiser than man, as man Is
but creature of Nature. A fact SO
insignificant as that which is brought tc
view in the study of the wheat grain
must not be treated with contempt. II
may be an error, and it probably is, tc
supply the outer coverings of wheat in
the leaf, in coarse particles, but it is moi
an error to hold them in combination
| in every form of food which may bt
desired. There is much said and done
| in regard to this matter which is empiri
cal and unworthy of trust, but the plair
facts as stated remain.-Boston Joilr7sG

The Grain Market.

Somebodyhas been more or less iqueez-
ed the past week in grain deals the heav-
ier buyers who had bought low and held
on, unloaded before the prices tumbled
too far. Wheat has reached its highest
on Mondsy when it was l431Sa, and after
a spasmodic week grounded yesterday at
133H. 1t has not been as high before
since the Russian war in 1877. Oats
started in Monday at 475s and closed
yesterday at 40, these figures also being
higher than for five years past. The
greatest range has been in corn and this
is where there has been the most suffer-
ing. Everybody has talked corn - the
past week, and those who got In before
the rise. and held on too long are feel
ing pretty sore. The market opened
Monday and went on up until 1t struck
Y62S. Those who unloaded then netted q
snug thing. but the tumble was steady
and rapid until Yesterday the closing
quotation was 633z, though the bottom
figure during the day was go. Not since
1875 has there been such range In
prices. and the boys who sold short are
not anxious for another experience
The cause of this panicky state of the
market was the action Of the Board of
Trade in Chicago fixing price at which
Grain could be released from the eleva-
tors and help out the market.-Cleve-

A correspondent in st. Lawrence
county, New York. says: Gas oleomarga-
rine is now cheaper than lard, Mr.. Cras-
per has some time past been using oleo-
margarine in all of his creameries; and
as a cask of it was being drawn through
Skinnerville lately, the excessive heat
having liquified the contents, the head
of the cask came out letting large part
of the grease run into the street. The
driver, thinking that road dust would
probably be as clean and wholesome as
gut fat, procured dipper and scraped
up this new kind of emulsion and re-
turned it to the cask and delivered it
safely to the creamery."-Elgin Advo-

TIE defeat of the Democracy came
pretty near being rout. The day before
election the Cincinnati Enquirer claimed
majority of several thousands; the morn
ing after election it was claimed by the
Republicans by majority of from ten to
seventeen thousand: the next day it had
grown to 90, 900; then it went up to over
23, 600; and finally the official count
makes it over $4,000 for Foster, and
about 26, 900 for the balence of the State
Ticket. Both houses of the Legislature
are two-thirds Republican, and consider
ing the fact that the Prohibition, vote was
largely drawn from the Republican Party
and that this is an off year in politics,

have victory of which We may be proud

A Leading Professor Speaking Of

DIR. s., the prominent Eastern
medical lecturer, says: every day SEN
sible people come to me complaining OF
their health being broken down. The
answers to my inquiries always are
what / surmise-nature's laws have
been totally disregarded; consequently
the blood, the stream of life, becomes
contaminated-anda as a result OF this
blood poisoning, / find dyspepsia and
disordered functions of the heart, lungs,
liver and the kidneys, accompanied by
headache, nervous debility and other
impaired organic portions, often verg-
ing on paralysis. In order TO keep the
digestive organs in proper health and
strength, and my friends in the pro-
fession have recommended Browns Iron
Biuters-they act so mildly and sooth-
ingly, never leaving any unpleasant
after-effects, strengthening the organs Of
digestion, and permanently removing
every symptom of i'll health, languor
and debility. No remedy In the East
gives such good satisfaction as Browns
Iron Bitters, and all druggists can pro-
cure it for you. Don't be persuaded to

If the Democracy had any ability to
learn wisdom by experience they might
profit by the results of the recent election.
They might learn that money will not
purchase an election to the chief execu-
tive office of Ohio. They might learn
that lying and slander as well as forgery
are improbable weapons to use against
apolitical opponent, their effect is always
short lived and that they always return
to plague their inventors and infiict upon
them their just retribution. But when
were the Democracy ever known to learn
anythingf They have been on the wrong
side Of every political and moral question
for the last thirty-five years and there is
yet no sign that their principles and
methods are ever to be improved.

The Power Of the Press.

One of the old-time editors of Michi-
gan was boasting the other day that he
had never been sued for libel, or at
tackled in his sactum, but he could re-
call many narrow escapes. Twenty-Five
years ago he was running red-Aot pa
per on the line of the Michigan Central
Railroad. A man named Carson, who
was running for some county Office, was
given q bad racket, and the editor re-
ceived a note that if he had anything
more to say he might expect to receive
q good pounding. He had a still more
bitter attack the next week, and the pa
per was hardly mailed before in walked
Carson, the candidate, accompanied by
brother and two cousins. The four
were strapping big fellows, and each
was armed with horsewhip. The two
compositors and the s'devil'' got out
with all possible speed, leaving the edi-
tor without support, He realized the
situation at onoe, and began:
"Walk in, gentlemen; presume you
have come to horsewhip me?"
"We have" they answered.
"Very well. Have you thoroughly
considered this matterP'
alt doesn't need any consideration"
replied Carson. "You have lied about
me, and I'm going to lick you within an
inch of your hfei"
"Just so, my friend, but first hear
what I have to say. Did you ever hear
of the press being stopped because the
editor was horsewhippedP"
