PhYsIcian's Advice of How to Gain
Health.

HARRISBURG, PA, March 80, 1881.
Nothing is more charming and attractive
than a thoroughly healthy, perfectly formed
woman; bright-eyed, rosy, laughing. joy
Gus, happy-faced girl, one who finds keen
pleasure in merely living. An invalid wife
or mother is a constant object of sympathy
in an otherwise contented household. Happy
the home whose women folk enjoy perfect
health. In my practice l have always re-
commended sickly women to use Browns
Iron Bitters. In case of irregularities, dys-
pepsia, indigestion, heartburn, nausea, sour
stomach, nervousness and exhaustive de-
bility, / find 1t exceeds all other remedies as
a true medicinal tonic. 1t never falls to
gently soothe, refresh and strengthen the
general system, and especially those parts
made weak by continued distress; and what
satisfies me most is, that the cures, although
in some instances gradual, are always per-
manent.-M. d.

The response of the government TO the
Irish Land Leagues mo Rent" mani
festo, is a proclamation OF the League as
an illegal organization. This will neces-
sarily put an end to the public opera
tions of the League, and its work must
now be done in secrecy. The wisdom
of thus changing the League from an
open to a secret organization is debata-
bic question. Whether the movement
will counteract the No Rent" manifesto
is also a matter of doubt 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Parnell, previous to his
arrest, made suitable and suff1cientprepa-
rations to meet this latest movement OF
the government, and that, consequently,
it will prove Ineffective. If so, it is dif-
icult to conjecture in what shape the next
attempt at repression will appear.

Mr.. Walter F. Adams, of Westboro, Mass,
writes; "For years l suffered the horrors of
dyspepsia and indigestion. They seemed to
weaken every organ of life, and completely
shattered my nervous system. At night
when lay down l felt could not live until
morning. Heartburn panied me most ter
ribly. l tried Browns Iron Bltters. 1t
suited my case precisely, and now my
stomach digests any kind of food, and my
salloy complexion and other symptoms Of
i'll health are all gone, aud at night enjoy
most refreshing, dreamless slumber"

Joseph Cowen, the Radical member of
Parliament for Newcastle.on-Tyne, pub
fishes in his paper, the Newcastle
Chronicle, an extract from Gladstone's
letter denouncing The imprisonment of
the Neapolitan prisoners, and says it fits
the case of the men imprisoned in Ire
land for political offenses exactly. He
says they have been imprisoned without
trial, contrary to the popular verdict,
and accuses Gladstone Of political incon-
sistepcv.

Gen. Grant, says the Nashville Amaeri-

with which his movements are regarded
by large number Of even his ardent

A shrewd method of keeping alive the
Land League agitation has been suggest
ed in Dublin. 1t is suggested that such
of the imprisoned leaders as are mem
bers of Parliament shall resign their
seats, allowing a sufficient time before
new elections are held to enable the
candidates to thoroughly revive the agi-
tation in their addresses to constituents
Then, upon the release of the members
now in prison; the new members can
resign and permit their reelection.

Trees and Health.

Everybody knows that trees take the
carbonic acid thrown out in the breath
of men and animals, separated into com
ponent parts-carbon and oxygen-give
back the latter to be used over again.
and work up the former into wood and
fruits
1t is also coming to be generally un-
derstood that forest trees do important
service in promoting rainfalls, and in
helping to retain the surface water for
springs, streams and general use.
1t is also known that certain species
planted in malarial localities, help to
render the latter healthy by somehow
using up the deadly miasma.
1t would now appear that trees grow
ing near drains carry off the sewerage
water
A gentleman, whose cess-drain was
constructed just like his neighbors aud
in the same kind of soil, had found it
unnecessary to clean it out, while the
others had to be cleaned out frequently.
An examination showed that three
large trees, whose roots had penetrated
into the vicinity of his second, or waste
cess-pool, were clearly channels through
which the waste all escaped.
Whether it was changed into plant
food, as is likely, or was exhaled Through
the leaves, in either case 1t was disposed
of with equal safety.

"Some folks seem to think this is
warm weather." observed old Daddy
Wotherspoon to old Uncle Linkinboth-
am, as the two old inhabitants stood,
last Thursday, before thermometer
that registered 80 deg. in the shade.
"'Pears to me twas worse than this in
the May of 28, wasn't it?"
"a heap worse" assented old Uncle
Linkinbotham "but that wasn't as
as bad as May of 20. You remember
how the tin roofs melted and run off the
houses, and we had to carry wrought
steel umbrellas through the streets?"
Deed do" rejoined old Daddy
Wotherspoon, mopping his visage with
some anxiety. &c was out hunting that
spring, and we had to carry our powder
in buckets of water to Keep it from going
off prematurely. Wasn't that the spring
the hams fried on live hogs and the bills
melted of the snow birds p
''The same spring." said old Uncle
Linkinbotham. "I know L was off fish
ing in Long Island sound, and the heat
generated the water into steam so as to
blow our boat clear over into the woods.
That month was pretty warm, for l rec
ollect how the forest out back of East
New York melted down, and i had q
stream of liquid kindlings running right
through my farm. One of my boys took
swig OF it one day by mistake, and
when he died in the fall we found him
chock full of splinters. Killed him."
Yes, yes" murmured old Daddy
Wotherspoon, streaming at every pore.
We used to hang meat and vegetables
down my well. and they were cooked in
ten minutes by the watch" and the an
cient gentleman regarded his antagonist
with some triumph.
1--WE tried that" said old Uncle Lin
kinbotham, "but the heat melted the
wires the grub was hung on and the
works of the clock run all over the floor,
so we couldn't tell how long it did take
to cook, and we used ice-water to do our
billing with"
Where'd you get your ice?" de-
manded old Daddy Wotherspoon, tying
handkerchief around his head to keep
his ears warm.
We just poured water on the fire
and the fire was so much cooler than
the atmosphere that the water froze in a
minute. That's how we got so much
Ice. Don't you want to go and drink
something to warm you up?"
IT we can get little good old bran
dy, I'd like it, replied old Daddy Woth-
erspoon, with pale lips and clenched fist.
"Ill take some proof brandy"
Come along, then" retorted old Un-
Gle Linkinbotham, contemptuously.
You may be able to stir your blood
with that tipple, but this weather and
the recollections of May. %, makes me
want some hot, spiced rum and fur
overcoat. Tomorrow I'm a-going to
put on extra hannels."
And the two old liars almost killed
themselves that afternoon with hot
drinks rather than admit that the AL
mighty could do things as well now rs
he did when they were boys.-Brookiyn

Does the World Miss Any One (!

Not long. The best and most useful
of us will soon be forgotten. Those
who to-day are filling large place III
the worlds regard will pass away
from the remembrance of men in few
months, or, at farthest, i'll a few years
after the grave has closed upon their re-
mains.
We are shedding tears above a new
made grave and wildly crying ont in
our grief that our loss is irreparable.
vet In a short time the tendris of love
have entwined around other supports,
and we no longer miss the one who mas
gone.
So passes the world. But there are
those to whom a loss Is beyond repair.
There are men from whose memories no
woman's smile can chase recollections of
the sweet face that has given up all its
beauty at deaths icy touch. There are
women whose plighted faith extends be-
yond the grave, and drives away as pro-
fame those who would entice them from
a worship of their buried loves.
Such loyalty, however, IS hidden away
from the public gaze. The world sweeps
on beside and around them and cares
not to look in upon this unobtruding
grief. It carves a line and records a
stone over the dead and hastens away to
offer homage to the living. 1t cries out
weepingly, "le roy est mort" but with
the next breath exclaims joyously,
"vive le roy"

A Great Dneiist.


Baron de Sen Malatn, Sicilian, and
n noted duelist, went to Paris. not long
ago, to find IA test of his skill as a COM
batant. He bad fought forty duels, but
in none of them had he been the chai-
lenger. 1t is told of him that, during
heated political canvass, in the course OF
discussion in a public square with a
first cousin, the latter called him by
some opprobrious epithet. The Baron
replied:
You are cOwardI
The cousin answered:
"Will you repeat that in five min
utes?"
"Assuredly."
The cousin went home and returned
with revolver in his hand. The Baron
went up to him and said:
"Giuseppi, see here That revolver
don't suit your hand; the stock never
was made for you; for the life OF you
you could not use that pistol"
AS he ceased to speak, he spit In his
cousins face. The suddenness and
strangeness of this speech and attack
so bewildered the cousin that he neither
said or did anything. The Baron spit
III ldCO dkoih. AltCkACiCt.
The cousin challenged the Baron. The
eve of the duel, the Barons aunt, who
knew what an expert swordsman he was,
begged him to spare her sons life. He
replied:
Giuseppe shall return from the field
even without q scratch.
The duel took place. The cousin at
tackled furiously. The Baron only par
ried. At last he turned his head and
looked at his seconds until his adversary
became so weak that he could no longer
hold his sword, when the seconds inter-
feIed and ended the duel.
At another time he was challenged by
the best broad-swordsman in Sicily,
while he himself was not skillful with
this weapon. The broad-sword was
selected by the seconds. On the field
the Baron took his sword in both hands
and rushed upon his adversary, using
the weapon as If it were club. His ad-
versary retreated. They were put in
portion again. The Baron disarmed his
adversary A third time they were put
in position at the first pass the BarorRs
sword broke within eight inches of the
hilt; his adversary kept on; the Sec
onds did not interfere. The Baron be-
came furious, rushed on his adversary,
wounded him then turned on the sec
onds and wounded every one o: them,
beginning with his own.

BLACK DIAMONDS.


The coal wade has about il no sugges-
tion of antiquity. The old Romans cut
aqueducts through coal fields with the
loftiest contempt for black diamonds.
and it was not until 1240 that coal was
used in London. Sixty years later there
was considerable trade in coal, and in
1880 the production of coal in Great
Britain was 134, ,0OS, ,28S tons.
The United States, with coal area of
1872, 900 square miles, produced 66. 200,
934 tons of coal III 1880, while Great
Britain, with coal area of IL 300 square
miles, produced 134 4,000,00 tons, and
Germany, with an area of only 1,770
square miles, produced 46, 953, 002 tons.
In the same year France produced
7,l04, 4S5 tons Belgium, 15,446, 53i
tons Austria, Is, 447, 292 tons Russia,
2,5SS, 604 tons spain, 10000 tons !;
Nova Scotia, 78S, 900 tons; Australia,
1,750, 900 tons India, 1000, 900 tons |;
Japan, 750, 600 tons; Vancouver's island,
250, 900 tons; Chill, 80, 900 tons Swe.
den, $4,000 tons Italy, 100000 tons (;
China, 1000, 600 tons.
Increase in the production of coal in
England has not been rapid. But in
countries like the United States, Russia
and Australia, the growth in business is
astonishing. Ten years ago Russia
mined only 829, ,745 tons of coal, and i'll
1929 Australia produced only 7S0 tons.
In 1858, the output of the whole German
empire was 4, 3S5, ,5S5 tons of coal, and
1,4l7, 420 tons OF Ignite. In the United
States the production has been more
than doubled in the last ten years. The
following table shows the production OF
coal in the different States OF the Union
in 1869 and 1880:
