A Blessing.

The pain in all his joints became
intense; fever, with its deteriorating
effects, was now added, and he became
rapidly reduced to the semblance of
skeleton, while vitality reached its
lowest possible condition, and his suf-
ferings were Of such indiscribable
character that those who most loved
him sometimes thought it would be
better if he were called away. At
this timer physicians, well-known in
this city (Pittsburg), informed his
parents that he was in imminent dan
ger of total Paralysis, and directly
afterward they announced to his sor-
rowful mother that they could give
no hopes Of his recovery. At this
juncture the use Of Peraraa was COM

Scientific Advancement.

Scientific advancement, it has been
remarked, has been slower and less
noticeable in the care of the sick and
the treatment of disease than in any
other department of human knowl-
edge. The life OF death Of a patient
is too frequently mere matter of ac-
cident or chance. Some great discov-
cries, however, have been made and
certain remedies are known and used
with almost infallible curative results.
Such remedy is Taraxine where de-
ranged liver is involved, or where dis
eases of the Bowels, Kidneys or Spleen
prevail For sale by E. D. Lewis,

that we are ashamed Of. They pro-
duce nothing themselves, and are con-
tinually robbing those who are the
producers of wealth. They have just
appropriated $4,000 to prevent any
| interference with their business-to
buy American votes. Though the
United States Supreme Court says
that dram-selling may be prohibited,
they denounce temperance legislation
as unconstitutional, unjust and fanat-
ical. They claim to hold the balance
of power between the parties, and
threaten to make any party kabm that
opposes them. They are ready to bury
the hatchet upon any other question.
The man who fought INIT Sigel'' will
vote with Jeff. Davis for secession if
his dram-shop is only not interfered
with. The man who fought four
years for State rights, will join hands
with the stalwart Republican, if his
own right to sell whisky be not in
vaded. Neither party nor religious
prejudices will be permitted to stand
between the dram-seller and any party
that opposes temperance. This is, in
deed, state of things which should
cause every American citizen to stop
and think. Here are half a million
foreigners who claim the power to
control the votes of twenty times their
number of Americans. They have no
higher ambition than to establish, be-
yond question, their right to go any
where and open dram-shops. 1t is
not necessary to look ten years into
the future and estimate the cost of
dram-selling to the country Already
it costs annually the astounding sum Of
81, 1,200,00O,000. It is this common in
terest in the liquor traffic that gives
our foreign population such power
in the politics Of this country.
Let Americans think of these things
let them consider whether they are
ready to surrender the control of
American politics into the hands of
a few hundred thousand foreign brew
ers and dram-sellers, who can always
command the foreign vote in the in
terests of dram-drinking and Sabbath
desecration, and who have announced
to the world that all other issues in
American politics must give way un-
til it is settled that no temperance
laws shall interfere with their business
of making and selling intoxicating
drinks.
We ask, again, shall handful of
foreign brewers and dram-sellers, who
cannot conduct meeting in the Eng
lish language, control the elections in
the interests of drunkenness and law
lessness, Of this, the greatest and
grandest country on the globe?

Grand Discoveries.

The discovery of great remedy is
frequently matter of accident This,
however, is not the case with TAR
AXINE, now widely known and ap-
proved as an almost infallible remedy
for Liver Complaint, and diseases of
the Kidneys and Bowels. The best
physicians have for many years used
various preparations Of dandelion root
in these diseases, but with only indif-
ferent success. After long series of
experiments, a combination, with the
active principle Of the Dandelion as a
basis, and other approved remedies to
highten its potency has been effected,
and the desired specific for these dis
eases has been found in the produc-
tion-TARAXINE. For sale by E.

THOMAS and James had new suits
of clothing at the same time. Thomas
kept his in the wardrobe, nice and
clean; but James put his right on
and wore it every day, SO it became
shabby after a time. Thomas's suit,
on the contrary, was as good as ever
when James's was worn out. When
the boys father saw the condition of
his sons clothing, he straightw y
purchased new and nobby suit for
James; but, as Thomas's was as good
as ever, he got no new clothes. Both
boys have now suits equally good, but
the cut of Thomas's is somewhat
archaic. James says Thomas is an
awful guy.

The death of the Pond Law was
renewed life to many saloons that had,
to all appearances, closed their doors
for good. The sad effect of the un-
fortunate collapse of the law is to be
seen in nearly all of our reports from
neighboring villages. The doggeries,
relieved of the tax, have reopened and
again resound to the clink of glasses,
drunken oaths and disgraceful brawls.
At one place, the saloon men inau-
gurated their renewed lease Of busi-
ness life by getting gloriously drunk,
a proceeding which they have by this
time, exchanged for the more profita-
BILE and supremely selfish one of max
ing others drunk for pay.-Col,tmbus

Teachers Institute.
POIiteneSs to Pupils.

A teacher was conversing with a
visitor, when a pupil came from a
classroom evidently to be reprimand-
ed. The teacher went to show the
school-room to the visitor, and was
gone an hour. On her return there
stood the pupil waiting for the CEN
sure.
"Why, my dear girl, how sorry 1
am that forgot about you. You will
excuse me, hope! | ought to have
seen to you before | went away.
Now, what were you sent to me for?"
Il spoke impolitely to the teacher" i"
well, please say to Miss Fl. that l
wish she would excuse you. You
must be polite to her; and | will be
polite to you, and thus, we shall be
happy here. !"
The visitor was indeed gratifed-
for pupils learn politeness as they do
other things-by seeing it practiced.
To give rules of politeness is not
enough. Practice is better. A lady
went into large store where there
were number of young statesmen,
and asked to look at boys hat. Af-
ter looking at several, she said: II
will look at number six and five
eights, if you can find one convenient
ly," thinking the girl might have to
search through large pile Of them,
and regretting the trouble it was caus-
ing. The face Of the young girl
frightened as she said with real graf
itude, but with pathetic tone: mo
one ever says to us, If you can find
one conveniently" The teacher Of
ten forgets to be polite. He tins
he is hired to teach and make t1e chill
dren mind, and he does not say
THANK you," or act as though he ap-
preciated anything done for him.
That person may make many happy
who goes through the school-room
with smile and kind word.

,yealOUSV,

Some poet has said that. "All tor
ments of the damned we find in only
thee, Oh Jealousy, thou tyrant of the
mind" This is grandly sweeping and
magnifcently inaccurate. Any suf-
ferer from Indigestion knows to the
contrary. Indigestion the villain of
the tragedy played among the gastric
juices of the stomach can, and does
double discount the horrors of jeal-
ousy. Jealousy is often an attendant
upon the latter, and when indigestion
is removed this jaundiced companion
of deranged liver flies. Taraxine is
the best known remedy extant for i'm
paired digestion, deranged liver, and
diseases of the bowels and kidneys.

Travellers by Sea and Land.

Change of air and travel produces
constipation, followed by headache
and general arrangement Of the
system. The nauseated stomach gags
at a pill, while mixtures sweet or acid
are revolving. Nothing of this kind
is ever complained of in taking Sim
mons Liver Regulator-purely veg
etable, pleasant to the taste, and its
operation upon the liver being perfect,
at the same time so imperceptible
that it interferes neither with busi-
ness or pleasure.

A MAN was once asked how he and
his wife got along with SO little fric-
ton in the family machinery. well" ="
said he, when we were first married
we both wanted our own way. l
wanted to sleep on linen sheets, my
wife preferred cotton, and we couldn't
agree. Finally, we talked the matter
over and came to the conclusion that
it was unchristian to live in constant
pickering. So we compromised on
linen and have got along all right
ever since"

ard to leave off his habit of drinking
intoxicating liquors. Can you tell
me how to do it?" said the slave of
the appetite. ''Yes," answered the
Quaker; ''it is just as easy as to open
thy hand, friend" Convince me of
that, and will promise upon my
honor to do as you tell me-" replied
the drunkard. swell, my friend,
when thou fndest any vessel of in
toxicating liquor in thy hand, open
the hand that contains it before it
reaches thy mouth, and thou wilt
never be drunk again." The topper
was SO pleased with the plain advice
that he followed it and became sober

United States Navy, got in the way
of a yawl-boat, and was cut down to
the waters edge and had to be dry
docked for repairs. Now, if they will
keep that navy on the dry dock it will
be comparatively safe, unless the wind
blows piece of tin-roofng against it.
The Government is very careless in
trusting its navy in the water where
there are other boats The navy should
have trucks on it and run ashore when
