REASONS WHY
all should use the
Reacdionary Health Lit,

every man or woman in every walk of life. 1t fur
nshes an exercise which may, and should be intro
duced into every house; which may be practiced at
all seasons, in all kinds of weather. by persons of
both sexes all ages degrees of strength or weak
much in praise of it, and no one can .fford to do
withoutit. All who investigate thor dghly, use it,
and consider it invaluable and Indispensable. 1t is
the safest, simplest, cheapest and most efficient
medicine ever discovered. No claim is set up for
it which is unscientifc or impracticable.
GeneraI.-It is the best of rest. 1t is perfectly
safe. No harm ever came from its use. 1t strains
no portion of the system 1t directs the vital forces
to the affected parts By its use the health is easily
maintained. The purchase of a Reactionary LITTER
Is the best kind of economy. The convenience of
having one in the house is very great.
Mind and Brain.-H invigorates and strength
ems the BRAIN and renders it more active and eff
eent in all its operations.
SIeep.-It is the simplest and safest narcotic.
1t is the most natural and probably the best
of inducing sound and refreshing sleep.
Nerves.-It is a wonderful tonic to the whole
nervous system. 1t is most eficacious remedy in
paralysis. If taken in time.
Lungs, Throat and VOice.-It gives special
expansion and greater mobility to the chest; en-
ton, and brings the voice more fully under control
AS preventive and cure of lung diseases it has
equal.
Exercise.-Iti is the most perfect exercise for
man or woman, furnishing the best form of physi-
cal culture and development in the safest, easiest,
most thorough and expeditions manner. 1t is bet
ter than the gymnasium and free from its dangers;
and infinitely better than drugs in majority of
chronic diseases. 1t rounds and hardens the mus
cles, and educates them into ever ready faithful
and efficient servants of the will.

you have family, Sarah"
"Yes; and 1 remember seeing your
marriage in the papers.
"No doubt You did. It made great
stir at the time. But it was the one
mistake of my life. Harry was lovely
fellow when [ married him, but he was
as poor as church mouse. He thought
he had nothing to do, after two or
three years, but to drink wine and live
on my father. Wine affected him as il
would your baby there. He hadn't
been Injured to it by degrees, and the
temptation was too much for him. II
affected his nerves SO that he began to
have fits.
"Oh, poor fellow Can't you save
him some way? said the old school
friend, in low tone.
"No; I kept him till he mortified me
by coming home intoxicated; and /
couldn't stand that before my company,
SO committed him to an asylum for
imbeciles. I should think his mother
would take him ont and take care of
him, shouldn't yoE?"
"Aint you afraid people will ask the
same question about You, Robina?"
"Afraid? You forget. my dear, that
I'm not afraid of anybody or anything

My father gave the house to him-al-
most; for he had only seven thousand
dollars to put into twenty five-thous
and dollar house. He gave the house
to me; SO he's lost his own seven thous-
and by his folly"
"Speak lower, Robina; people are
listening" said the sweet little lady,
with tears in her eyes.
81 don't care if they are; it's the
truth u was the reply of Robina, ac-
companied with a stare at the other
passengers.
"Where did you get this terrible
habit p"
81 don't know; from himself, sup

"You surely never offered liquor to
him at his own table ?"

Robina's invitation was firmly declined
by this wife and mother, whose thoughts
were far away, lamenting over the
young life she had just heard of dying
out in the company of imbeciles.
But at this very hour, while Robina's
ears and hands were glittering with dia-
mouds, and her voice was heard merrily
talking and laughing about those poky
old times in Boston" her husband was
with his mother and sister IN the hum
blest of homes in the New York noun
tains, struggling with more than mortal
power to throw off the chains with
which the very evil one, aided by :" that
brave women" had bound him.

A Singular Suicide.

Mrs. Daisy Oaks Dudley, wife of Mr..
Francis I'll. Dudley and daughter of ex-
Judge W. J. A. Fuller of the law firm
of Fuller Il Albeit, Broadway, New York
City, committed suicide on Saturday
Orange Mountain, N. J. She shot her.
self about five o'clock through the
brain, and died about half-past twelve
the same night. From the time of the
shooting until her death Mrs. Dudley
was unconscious.
The circumstances attending the
shocking affair, as gathered at the
scene, are of very distressing charac-
ter, the immediate cause of the dread
full act being young married couples
quarrel over a most trifiing matter-a
question whether husband and wife
should drive in pony phaeton or a cov-
cred buggy.
The tragic death of Mrs. Dudley
carries with it the lesson that young
wives and husbands cannot learn
mutual forbearance too soon. There
never appears to have been a quarrel be.
tween the unhappy pair arising from
grave cause, but the number, endless
ness and pettiness of their disagree
ments seems to have amounted to the
same thing. The final contention about
phaeton and covered buggy seems
utterly inadequate to account for the
suicide. 1t Itprobably. however, typifed
miserable state of existence that
little forbearance might have
changed, but, that lacking, death may
have presented itself as the only escape
to woman of highly nervous organiza-
ton.

A Cavalry Dog.

A cavalry company left Milwaukee
recently for the purpose of spending a
few days in camp near Oeonomowoc.
A dog went with them, and here is a
record of his adventures on the way as
set down by correspondent of the
Milwaukee San: "The dog, a pointer
belonging to one of the men. was thrown
out as an advance guard. He was relied
on to protect the command from sur
prise and ambush, but the reliance was
misplaced. He was the bravest looking
dog that we ever saw, and would charge
on a struggling gopher with yell,
driving the enemy into his intrench-
ments and dig for him in manner that
inspired new confidence in the soldiers
he was guarding. But he met his
Waterloo. We do not know as Waterloo
was the name of the country whiffet
that came out and bit our pointer in a
vital part, but our brave four-footed
guard turned tail, curled his flag of
truce between his legs and came back
to the company as though he had caught
Tartar. He was crushed dog for a
while, and marched along at the rear as
though he wished the war was over.
Ou5 OuI NOS 4CACCAICO AAAAoC1 w q
certain extent later. Just before dark.
after he thought the country dogs had
probably gone to bed, the pointer went
ahead of the company and presently he
came to farmhouse where two calves
were drinking milk out of a tin pail.
Looking around to see that there was
no dog there, he boldly charged on the
calves, and when they stuck their tails
mp and galloped away the dog walked
up to the milk-pail and drank the milk,
looking up to the boys as they passed,
as much as to say, We'll, that is ahoa3t
as good job of hard fighting as you
fellows could do, and as he came by the
company he seemed to walk like plug
ugly with his hat over his left eye, as
though saying, 'Oh, I'm a fighting son
of gun, and don't any of you forget

Freezing my soul with the glance of her ewes.
