A Thing Mrs. Garfield Regrets.

1t is now reported that Mrs. Garfield has
frequently spoken of ono feature above all
others in the presidents treatment, that
she regretted the most. This was tho fact
that the president was never allowed to
talk about the danger Of death, or to
speak as he would have done had he been
allowed to think that he was going to die.
Whenever he approached this subject he
was stopped in his talking, and diverted
from it by admOnitiOns mot to lose cOur-
age" Mrs. Garfield says that often she
wanted to talk to the president upon mat
ters which it was almost imperative that
there should be conversation before he
died, but she restrained herself, and the
president passed away without her having
that opportunity.
In connection with the revival of the
quarrel between the doctors who did and
the doctors who did not attend the late
President Garfield during his sickness it is
avcrred that he thought all along that DR..
Agnew, of Philadelphia, was the surgeon
in charge of the case His mind was never
disabused of that impression, and he car
ried it with him to the grave. This report
would seem, however. to be contradicted
by the fact that President Garfield had an
opportunity to see by the bulletins sub
mitted to him daily that DR.. Bliss name
headed the list as the surgeon in charge.
Also. he could not help being aware that
DR.. Bliss was not Only in charge, but that
he bore the main burden of the exhausting
and unremitting attention the case re-
Iuircd night and day.

Marrying People.

The "church choir" which produces
"Patience'' here next Tuesday evening
has had u curious history since
it started on the road with comic
operas. But few of the original
party remain in it. There have been 2G
weddings and as many couples have re-
tired to make room for others. The mar
rying infection started early. Couples
thrown constantly together, under all
sorts Of circumstances learned to love,
and almost before the other members dis
covered the tender attachment had mar
ried and announced their intention OF set
tIing down. Their places were kept con-
stantly filled and the new people intro
duced followed tho routine of singing,
falling in love, hitching and leaving.
There are several matches now under way,
and tho holiday season will no doubt wit
ness the solemnization of the nuptials of
one Or two couples in the party.

We refer to the wonderful success that has
attended the introduction of DIR. &. w. Ben
sons Celery and Chamomile Pills into the
whole country.
They arc prepared expressly to cure Sick
Headache. Nervous Headache, Neuralgia,
Nervousness. Sleeplessness and dyspepsia and
the facts prove that they do and will cure
these diseases every time where tho cause Is
not OF an organic nature.
The secret OF their success is twofOld. First,
the need of them is very great it IS tho only
thing that has ever been found, in the profess
sion or out OF It. that would actually and per-
mancntly cure those diseases SO that every
body who takes them becomes walking and
talking advertisement for them. One box.
taken into a neighborhood, has been followed
and traced to selling $50 worth in that one

They are indeed Il valuable preparation and
no nervous person ought to be without them,
