Mr.. Fawcett, the Postlhaster-GcIe-
nal of Great Britain, has hit upon q
very clever device for the purpose OF
encouraging the saving OF money
among the lower classes. The govern
ment has issued at its various postof-
fees an Official strip of paper, having
upon il places for twelve postage
stamps 10 be stuck The possessor,
man, woman, or child, can, whenever
ne has . spare penny, buys stamp and
put it upon the slip. When the slip
is full, that is, when twelve stamps
have been glued on, the holder can, by
taking the slip to the postoficc, get a
savings bank receipt for q shilling,
which is the minimum deposit that
the p~ostofice savings bank will take.
The crown jewels which the French
government is anxious to sell, consist
in part of objects which have neither
artistic value nor historical associa-
lions. The minister of fine arts states
that ths sum of 81, 500,0 900 which it is
estimated they will fetch would enable
him to form a reserve fund for the &C.
casional purchase of works of art for
the national museums. At present
the administration of fine arts has the
disposal of q sum OF $4,000 voted by
the chambers every year, but the force
of routine is so great that the minister
is obliged 10 spend tho whole Of this
within the twelve months, whether
there are favorable opportunities for
buying or not, and can not exceed the
sum by a single franc when there are
several important sales during tho
year.

A Great Revelation.
Seine Valuable Thoughts Concerning Iu-
maH Happiness and Timely SHg-
gesnen About Securing it,

The free and independent thought Of
this age accepts statements only where
they are proven to be truth, while the
development of mental power seems
equally great in every other department
of life. The valuable inventions of the
day are counted by thousands. The in
crease of scientific study is universal.
The spirit of inquiry in all fields is SO
marked as to cause
COMMENT ON EVERY SIDE,
while people seem investigating and
advancing in every direction which can
help them morally, mentally or physi-
cally. This is specially true Of the hui
man body and everything which con-
Germs it, and the truths which the peo-
pie have found, even in the last fifty
years, are simply marvellous. How re-
ally ignorant some cultured and suppo
seably scientific people were only a few
years ago, as compared with the pres
ent day, may be better understood from
a few illustrative facts. A prominent
writer prepared an elaborate essay TO
prove that steamships could never cross
the Atlantic, and his pamphlet was is
sued Just in time to be carried by the
first steamer to England People once
believed that the heart was the seat of
life and health. 1t is now known that
this organ is only a pump, simply keep
ing in motion what other aud more i'm
portant organs of the body have created
and transformed. 1t was once supposed
that if a person felt a pain in the back,
the liver was deranged; if a pain came
in the lower chest the lungs were affect
ed II consumption was near; 1T is now
known that a pain in the back indicates
diseased kidneys, while troubles in the
lower chest arise from a disordered liver
and not imperfect lungs. a severe
pain in the head was once thought to
come from some partial arrangement of
the brain; it is now known that trouble
in other parts of the body and away
from the head, cause headaches and
that only by removing the cause a the
pain be cured. 1t is "A matter of

which l had experienced. Not only
this but many, who were not conscious
of any physical trouble, who, at my
suggestion, began the use of the rem
dy which had saved my life, found
their health steadily improving and
their strength continually increasing.
So universal, where used, was this true,
that l determined the entire world
should share in its results, and / there
fore placed the formula for its prepara-
ton in the hands of Mr.. H.. II. Warner,
of Rochester, n. y, "a gentleman whom
had cured of Il severe kidney disease,
and who, by reason of his personal
worth, high standing and liberality in
endowing the Astronomical Observa-
tory and other public enterprises, has
become known and popular to the en-
tire country. This gentleman at once
began the manufacture of the remedy
on a most extensive scale, and to Ida y
Warnsr's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure,
the pure remedy that saved my life, is
known and used in all parts of the con-
tinent.
Is 81 am aware Il prejudice exists tow

such prejudice is too often well founded,

less because it is a proprietary medicine.
A justiiiable prejudice exists towards
quack doctors, but it is right that this
prejudice should extend toward all the
doctors who are earnestly and intelli-
gently trying to do their duty? Be
cause Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure saved my life before 1t became a
proprietary medicine, is it reasonable to
suppose that 1t will not cure Others and
keep still more from sickness now that
it is sold with a government stamp on
the wrapper. Such a theory would be
childish"
The doctor then paid some very high
compliments to American science, and
| closed his lecture as follows:
"How to restore the health when
broken and how to keep the body per
feet and free from disease must ever he
mans highest study. That one of the
greatest revelations of the precent day
has been made in ascertaining the true
seat of health to be in the kidneys and
liver. all scientists now admit, and ]
can but feel that the discovery which
have been permitted to make, and
which | have described to you, is des
tined to prove thu greatest, best ant

and long for happiness, us well as those
who desire to keep the joys they now

PRIVATE HISTORY

that Gen. Washington was bled to death.
His last illness was slight, and caused
principally by WEAKNESS. A physician
was called who 'bled him copiously.'
Strange to say, the patient became no
better. Another doctor was called,
who again took away a large amount of
the vital fluid. Thus in succession four
physicians drew away the life of a great
man who was intended by nature for an
old age, and who prematurely died
murdered bymalpractice-bled to death.
That was the age of medical bleed
ing"
After describing ut length the Offices
of the kidneys and liver, and their I'M
portant part in life, the doctor went on
to say:
"Having found this great truth, | saw
clearly the cause of my recovery. The
