The blood is tie foundation Of
life, it circulates through every part
Of the body, and unless ii IS pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the onLy Sure and quick way TO drive
it out is TO purify and enrich the
blood
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that noflinF but
iron will restore the blood TO its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blaclen the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BlTTERS will thor
oughly and quickly assiInilate with
the blood, purifying ard strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
am part of the system, and it will
nof blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively not injurious.

~ Are never initiated
or counterfeited.
This is especially true Of a
family medicine, and it is posi-
tive proof that the remedy initiated
is of the highest value.
AS soon as it had been tested
and proved by the whole world
that Hop Bitters was the purest,
best and most valuable family
medicine on earth, many imita-
lions sprung up and began to steal
the notices in which the press and
people OF the country had express
ed the merits of IL. B., and ir
every way trying to induce suffer-
ing inyalids TO use their stuff in
stead, expecting to make money
on the credit and good name Of
II. B.
Many others startsd nostrums
put up in similar style to IL. B.,
with yariously cunningly devised
names in which the word "iTop"
or " Hops" were used in way to
induce people to believe they were
the same as Hop Bitters. All
such pretended remedies or cures,
no matter what their style or name
Is, and especially those with the
word Hop" or "lIops" in their
name or in amy way connected
with them or their name, are ami
tations or counterfeits.
Beware Of them. Touch mono
OF them, but: Use nothing but
genuine hop Bitters, with Il bunch
or cluster of green Hops on the
white label. Trust nothing else.
Druggists and dealers are warned
against dealing in limitations or

AGRICULTURE AND THE CABINET

The creation of department of Agri-
culture is virtually accomplished, as there
were but seven votes againt the bill for
the purpose which was enacted by the
House of Representatives on Thursday
The magnitude Of the agricultural in
terests of the country demands represen-
tation in the Cabinet, if any advantage
is to be derived from such representa-
ton. 1t should be remembered that the
vast export trade of the United States is
almost wholly the achievement of the
farmers. Commissioner Loring exhibited
the relative Importance of agriculture as
contributor to our export trade by his
report for 1880, in which he showed that
the agricultural exports of the year
amounted to s113371, S62, ,617, the total ex-
ports being 1923, 94G, 353. That is, all
but $S6. .0s3, 1856 of the export trade was
the work of the farmers. Such statistics
should silence all opposition to the crca-
ton of Il Department of Agriculture if
there is reason to believe that the new
department would promote our agricul-
tural interests. The collection and dil1u-
sion of informa ton such as our farmers
need but can with difficulty obtain are of
themselves business of sufficient i'm
portance to justify the organization of
the proposed department. If the work
of organization is properly performed
and if the right man is placed and kept
i'll the Cabinet as Secretary of Agricul-
tire, the new department will contribute
vastly to the promotion of the agrcul-
tural interests of the whole Union.

GOOD OLD MARGARET"

What Philadelphia cotemporary calls
" one Of the most curious cases of decep-
ton and imposition - has Just been ex
posed in that city. While it is remark
able in its details, in kind it is much
more common than most people are aware
Good old Margaret" had long borne
the character of extreme poverty and
unusual piety, and in that character she
had enjoyed the charity of one of the
Philadelphia churches during the twelve
years preceding her death last February.
She represented her family to consist of
an intirm cousin, John Bethel, and an
imbecile daughter. When she died the
woman who assisted in preparing her
body for burial discovered that she had
left large sums of money in cash and in
books Of deposit in various banks and
trust institutions. The alleged imbecile
daughter gave her an expensive funeral,
placing her body, in 4 5000 casket, by
the side of the ''intirm cousin, who had
died Il year earlier, in $500 marble vault
which good old Margaret - had built
in Woodlands cemetery while begging
aims. The imbecile daughter proved
20 have very different views of the uses
of money from those of her lamented
parent, and with an eX maid of all work
dinners at the best hotels daily, drive in
Paramount Park in stylish equipagcs,
patronize the fashionable shops, and as
tonish salesmen by paying cash for the
most costly furniture for the apartments
in which she had had an humble home
with pious and poor old Margaret.
Her extravaganza attracted SO much
attention that her history was soon re-
Vealcd, and it was found that she was no
imbecile, but had been very shrewd
assistant of her mother in avaricious
schemes of duplicity. 1t was also dis
covered that the ''iniirm cousin,' John
Bethel, was none other than the hus-
band Of "good old Margaret" and while
the latter was masquerading as a needy
Episcopalian, lie was industriously ope-
rating in the character of 4 mendcant in
the Roman Catholic fold. The i'm
bcciIe daughter seems to have been
worthy of her thrifty parents, and her
success as y mendicant might have made
her the successor of her mother in the
title of "good old Margaret had not
Oscar Wilde invaded America and in
fused an Ssthetic aspiration into her
maiden breast. The revelation of fraud
which IS effected by the publication of
the history of 'good old Margaret " and
family presents to the soft-hearted peo-
rle who bestow charity wherever it is
asked an example Of imposition upon the
credulous whose lesson ought not to be
lost. The greater part of those who ask
charity are professional beggars, and to

NOT even one word is necessary to the
wise in such weather as this, but it can
not be too forcibly impressed on the
thoughtless that the laying aside of warm
and comparatively heavy underclotning,
or the substitution Of slight garments
for heavy wraps, in the present treacher-
Gus weather, is a culpably dangerous
experiment with even the most robust
constitution.

STREAMING THE MEMORY.

Three remarkable cases of mental in
trinity, as the result Of mental overwork
have recently happened. The first is that
of the young theological student who eX
committed to memory by the Fourth of
July. He is now a maniac. The second
is that of 8 Prof Andrews, the light
ming calculator" who put such strain
upon his mind in the development of his
mathematical faculties that he at last be-
came insane, and few days ago he mur-
dered his wife. The third is that of Her
mann Linde, the German elocutionist.
He knew all of Shakespeare, Schiller and
some other authors by heart, but he is
now dying in New York from the soften
ing of the brain. The misfortunes which
have overtaken these three persons
should be warning against training the
memory. Many people entertain the false
idea that education consists chiefly in
committing things To memory, rather
than in training the mind to work accu-
rately and promptly. In Germany, where
children are taught at an early age to
memorze poetry and choice prose, prob
ably more is committed to memory with
out injury than in any other country, but
it is questionable if more profit would
not be derived from mental application
in other directions. The chief executive
officer of one of our greatest railways is
as saying that he never attempts
to burden his mind with statistics, as he
wishes his mental faculties free for more
important work. lie says observation
teaches him that persons whose ambition
it is to cram themselves with statistics
like encyclopedias are usually deficient
in Judgment 1t is desirable and even
necessary to learn many things by heart,
but it is perilous to strain the mind by
book after book to memory.
