Seekers After Health.

Unfortunates who are seeking to re-
new their health, are many. So often
have they been deceived by the adver-
tisements of worthless compounds, that
many are discouraged, and refuse to be-
lieye anything they read in the papers.
Therefore, the best advertisement of a
really good medicine is the reputation it
has gained in places where it is being
sold. No other remedy ever discovered
has grown so rapidly in public favor as
that true medical tonic called Browns
Iron Bitters. InlOcalities where its ex-
traordinary merits have become fully
known and realized by those who have
been in ill-health, the sale is unprece-
dented. One druggist in our city reports
the sale of 23S bottles in one week. It is,
indeed, wonderful, health-giving, life
saving preparation. 1t is soothing and
refreshing in its effect, and strengthens
every part of the body, and creates heal
thy appetite and digestion, even when
the system is almost DESTROYED by the
many hurtful catharics so commonly
used. Reader, beware! duty demands
that you try Browns Iron Bitters, if
your health is poor from any cause

Union Pacific Railroad.

The Secretary of the Interior has
transmitted to Congress the report of
government directors of the Union
Pacific railroad company for 1881. The
directors claim that enormous benefits
have resulted in the west from the COM
pletiOn of this railroad, in. developing
latent resources. The report contains a
detailed statement of the progress made
i'm the construction of the branch lines
and of changes in the main road itself,
calculated to increase its efficiency.
There were 1852 acres of land sold for
the nine months ending November 30,
1879, at an average of $4.93 per acre. The
local earnings of the company are said
to be so per cent. of the surplus earn
ings, while at the beginning of its
operations through freight represented
roper cent. OF its earnings. The direc-
tors have not considered it necessary to
go into the financial operations of the
company as these matters are embraced
in its report to the auditor of rail-
road accounts which has been already
published.

from her closed eyelid, but her face was
covered with smile. The men tip-toed
out, and the clerk walked over and

with laugh and cried out: "What a
beautiful dream! Ma wasn't sick any
more, and we had lots to eat and to wear

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4. 1882.
The Editor and the shoemaker.

One day an editor, hard at work trying
to devise plan to make delinquent sub
scribers pay their dues, was called upon
by shoemaker, who dropped in to give
the editor some valuable hints on run
ming newspaper. The editor, OverjOy-
ed at the opportunity, gave the man his
best cane bottom chair, handed him
fresh cigar, and listened attentively.
QuOth the shoemaker, as he lit the weed:
"YOur paper needs hundred i'm
proved features. You don't grasp the
topics of the day by the right handle;
you don't set the locals in the right kind
of type; your telegraph news is too thin;
even the paper itself is poorly manufac-
tured, not thick enough and too chalky
white; you don't run enough matter,
and what you do run amt of the right
are Internally foolish, and your stand on
the COnkling matter was bad-bad. |
tell you these things because want you
to succeed. / tell as friend. don't
take your paper myself, but see it once
in while, and, as a paper is public
affair, suppose have as good right
to criticize as anybody. If man wants
to give me advice, let him; I'm glad to
have him, in fact"
That's exactly it," said the editor,
kindly; 81 always had dim idea of my
shortcomings, but never had them so
clearly and cOnvincingly set forth as by
you. 1t is impossible for me to express
my gratitude for the trouble you have
taken not only to find out these facts,
but to point them out also. Some people
knowing all these things, perhaps, nearly
as we'll as you, are mean enough to keep
them to themselves. Your suggestions
come in a most appropriate time; have
wanted someone to lean on, as it were,
for some weeks. Keep your eye on the
paper. and when you see a weak spot
come up" "n~ .r~
The shoemaker left, happy to know
that his suggestions had been received
with such Christian spirit. Next day,
just as he was fiinising boot, the ed
itOr came in, and, picking up the mate,
remarked:
Il want to tell you how that boot
> strikes me. In the first place, the leath-
er is poor, the stitches in the sole are too
wide apart, and in the uppers too near
the edge. Those uppers will go to pieces
in two weeks. It's all wrong, my friend,
putting poor leather in the heels and
smoothing it over with grease and lamp
black. Everybody complains of your
boots; they don't last, the legs are too
long. the sOles too narrow, the toes are
not well shaped, and the instep is too
high. How you can have the cheek to
charge ten dollars for such boots beats
me. Now, tell you this as friend, be-
cause like 20 see YOU succeed. don't
know any more about shOemaking, than
you do about newspaper, but still
take an interest in you because you are
so we'll disposed toward me. In fact"
Here the exasperated cObbler grabbed
lapstOne, and the editor gained the
street, followed by old knives, pincers,
hammers and avis, sent after him by
the irate c0bbler, who, on regaining his
seat, swOre by the nine gods that no i'm
pertinent, lOp-eared idiot should ever
come round trying to teach him his

when Guitcau can be Hanged


The law of the District of Columbia
provides: ITO enable any person con-
victed by thea judgment of the court to
apply for writ of error, in all cases
when the Judgment shall be death, or
confinement in the penitentiary, the
court shall, on the application of the
party OccasiOned, postpone the final exc
cutiOn thereof to a reasonable time be-
yOnd The next term of the court, not ex-
ceeding in any case 30 days after the
end of such term" The terms of the
criminal court in which Guiteau was
tried begins December, March and June.
The trial began in the December term.
The March term has not yet commenced,
and it must terminate before the third
Monday in June which this year is the
18th, when the June term begins. The
law as will be seen from the above pro-
vides that judgment can not be execut-
ed on Guiteau, that is he can not be
hanged until after the conclusion of the
March term, that being the next after
the present term of the court in which
he is tried. And he must be hanged
within thir ty days after that. Thus he
may be hanged any day after June 49,
that being the last day of the March
term. He may be hanged on June 10
the earliest. July 2, the anniversary of
his crime, would be an excellent day TO
suspend him.-POst and Tribune.

The PLACE OF REASON. Human
reason may indeed inquire whether
the voice that speaks be delusive or
divine; it may test the truth of reve-
lation on historical grounds; it may
ask whether it's doctrines be in har-
mony with or contradictory to moral
truth, to our essential ideas and nee
essary convictions it may inquire
whether the problems it proposes to
solve be real or only imaginary; but,
having answered such preliminary
inquiries, it has no shadow of right
to 60 to this revelation and dictate to
it what it shall tell us of Gods ma
ture, or what shall be the method of
the revelation or redemption, any
more than it has right to go to that
other reality, nature, and prescribe
its laws and limit it's elements. In
both cases, man is to study and to
learn.-Dr. FL. B. Smith.

ENsILAGE sOLUs.

There has been of late conSldera-
BILE falling-off in the talk about silos
and the value of ensilage as separ-
ate food. At the beginning of the
mania of the preserved cornfodder III
its perfectly fresh, green state was to
accomplish everything unasslsted.
Milk. butter and cheese were to be
produced, condition of the cattle
maintained, and health secured sole
" by the feeding of ensilage; and,
altogether. it was to be effected at a
rate of economy that must satisfy ev-
erv one at short notice that this new
Undiscovered method of making the
most out of the products of the earth
at the least expenses must commend
itself to the favorable attention of ev-
evry agriculturist.
But has it done so? We need hardly
say that it has not. Ensilage by it.
self. as a food for even milch-cOws,
is not recommended by those who
seem to be mostly experienced in the
use of it. Almost all extensive feed
ers employ at the same time Other
feed, which takes away from the
fresh fodder its distinctive features
or qualities as separate food. One
farmer says the fodder comes out Of
the silo in good condition, and is eat
en- mp clean by the cattle; but, he
''mixes with it good cut hay" which
is given in two feeds per day: but tx
secure proper results "some concen
trated feed must be added" such a
cake-meal, bran, &c. And this il
the way the question is now treated
We don't pretend to say that thi
combined food is not very good-ex
cellent-and that cattle will give plen
ty of milk and thrive upon it but W
beg to be allowed to say, without be
ing much abused for it, that we doub
the economy involved, or that any la
Dor is saved, OF that any profits ar
obained over the system in vogue be

WHEN TO SELL.

Without assuming to know more
than others when the farmer should
get rid of his crops, and whether it is
better to hold on to them awaiting
rise to what they are at any one time
selling at our idea has been to sell as
soon as the crops are ready for the
market for the best price that can be
obtained for them. We think it is
even strange that there should be
any doubt about this, or that any one
who is asked for advice would hesitate
a moment what answer to make, for
there is no doubt in the world that as
a general rule the man who turns his
money round the quickest makes mon
ey the fastest in the long run, and
this is as true in farming as in any
other pursuit. Once in a while one
makes more money by holding on
and in theory it seems best to hold on.
There are always large number who
must sell as soon as their crops are
ready. They have to sell for any
price they can get in order to meet
accounts long since due. This rush
ing in of crops has a tendency, OF
ought to have, in making low prices.
But this is only theoretical. 1t is
found by experience that in CONNER
cial phrase these anticipations are al
ways discounted. Experience
shows that there is very rarely any
greater stock in the grain trade that
finds its way into market than is
about in fair demand. The only
chance to make much money by hold
ing on is when one has the means al
hand to control large lots, and thus
in a measure be able to control his
own prices; but happens so rarely
that it is a consideration the average
farmer has nothing to do with.-Ger

Pain in the Back and Side.
There is nothing more painful than these

The PLACE WHERE JERSEY Cows
CONE FROM.-Jersey Island, the place
from which we obtain the favorite
Jersey COW, is a small spot Of land.
If squared, it is six and three-quar-
tiers miles each way. Yet this little
island has a population of 10000 hui
man beings, and has over II, 900 cat
tile, and has had that number for the
last twenty years, for the census of
1861 gives 12.037. And yet they ex-
port on an average annually two
Thousand head. Roughly speaking,
on this island they manage to sup
port one head of kline to every acre,
while in England there is only one
head to every ten acres; therefore,
N proportion to it's size, Jersey ex-
ports as many cattle every year as
England contains. If England were
TO export cattle at the same rate, her
whole stock would be swept away in
} year. A good Jersey will yield
half her weight in butter year-she
'arely exceeds eight hundred pounds,
md her average weight at home is
bout seven hundred pounds. What
title spot of earth can make better
showing?

There is no life so humble that, if
it be true and genuinely human and

shed some of His light. There is no
life so meagre that the greatest and

We cannot know at what moment it
may flash forth with the life of God.
