CONSUMPTION.

1t is said that $4,000 people die an
nually in the United States alone from
this disease. In some sections of the
country one death in every three is
from Consumption. This can be, and
should be avoided: our people are too
careless about IN ordinary cough or
cold. and other symptoms of throat
and lung affections that lead to this
disease. You should arrest it while
it is in the germ. Two or three doses
of DR.. Bosanko's Cough and Lueg
Syrup will relieve an ordinary cough
or cold. 1t does not dry up cough
like many preparations on the market
and leave the disease behind it. but
acts directly on the throat and bron-
cbial tubes, removing all the phlegm
and morbid matter that accumulates
in the throat and lungs. 1t allays all
irritation, and renders the voice clear
and distinct. Sold by +. A. Baker.

EXCURSION TO WALPOLE
Gala Day--Pleasant Trip-The verdict
Of Everybody "What a Jolly Time"

The harvest exclusion To Walpole
Island last Thursday was one of the
most pleasant affairs of the season.
This being ths first adventure of the
kind ever gotten up from this place it
might be called a grand success, and
IS the ice is now broken we hope there
will be many more of these pleasant
trips to follow. The day opened very
unfavora6le, but rs the old addage
says "a cloudy morning oft brings II
pleasant day" and before the party
had reached Port Huron the clouds
broke away and Old Sol shons forth
In all his glory, and the day turned
out to be all that anyone could desire.
On arriving at Pert Huron the patty
found the elegant new steamer Omar
ID. Congcr in waiting to transfer them
to the Island. This boat is one of the
finest or the river, having every mod
ern Improvement for the comfort of
passengers and under the management
Of the genial Capt Smith, whose agree
able manner makes him favorite
on the river, there was nothing left to
be desired in the make up Of pleasant
trip. The Island was reached about
il o'clock when the baskets were pro-
duced and IA regular ol,.>fashioned pic
mic INDUCED in. After disposing of the
good things with right good will the
pic-n:corS began to explore the Island
in quest OF the dusky braves, ponies,
&c. About three hours was spent in
this delightful spot when the boat
left for Port Huron arriving about 3
O'clock and all boarded the train for
home. The day passed off harmonious
ly and everybody came home highly
pleased with the days enjoyments.

NATURES LAW.

The fiat of nature is inexorable. There is
no appeal of relief from the great law which
dooms rs to dust We flourish and fade as
the leaves Of the forest, and the flowers that
bloom and wither for day have no Trailer
hold upon life than the mightiest monarch
that ever shook the earth with his footsteps.
Generations of men VIII appear, and as the
grass and the countless multitudes that
throng the world to-day, will tomorrow
disappear as the footsteps on the shore. Men
seldom think of the great event of death
until the shadow falls across their own path,
hiding from their eyes the traces of loved
ones, whose living smiles were the sunlight
Of their existence. Death is the great antag-
onist of life, and the cold thought of the
tomb is the skeleton at all feasts. We do
not want to go through the dark valley, al
though its passage may lead to Paradise; and,
with Charles Lamb, we do not want to lie
down in the grave even with kings and
princes for our bed-felIOws.
The National tribune., 1882-03-11

by letter written in cipher. He mixes in
society and meets all sorts and conditions
of men, but his occupation is, known 20 very
few persons indeed. SO much is this the
case that the French detectives very seldom
know each other that is to say, Monsieur
A. may be very well acquainted with Mon
sleur B., but neither of them know that the
other is employed by the police. I was told
by one of the authorities in the Rue de
Jerusalem that in London the undiscovered
are to those that are discovered in the pro-
portion OF three to one. If the Frenci, po-
ice are right in their statements the larger
the robbery that takes place in Paris the
greater chance there is of its being found
out, whereas IN London we know the exact
contrary to be the case.
The National tribune., 1882-03-11

Philanthropy does not consist so much
in building costly edifices for public use,
making generous donations to art and other
institutions, or in contributing to the pleas
ure and happiness of those who can be COM
Portable without such gifts, as it does in as
sisting the humble, the downtrodden, and
otherwise unfortunate among men. A penny
kindly given to worthy beggar is more in
the sight of God than an entire fortune de-
voted to the founding of university or the
erection of the most elaborate monument, or
place of worship, even.

largely enhanced cost of living, espec-
tally within the past seven or eight
months. The strikes among the lab
orers and workingmen, of the mines

the great transportation companies,
has been considerable loss to the
strikers In unearned wages, and of
course this loss has to a certain extent
left the families of the strikers in a

Mary Quantrill.*


Over the meadows green and fair,
Where the ripe grain in the summer air
Stood waving its richness like gold in the
Which proved reward by labor won,
Over the meadows green and fair,
Came band of men to do and dare.
On through the streets of Frederick town
Brayely they marched. up and down;
Cheers for the southland greeted the ear,
Cheers for the southern hosts. far and near;
Tattered banners all grim with smoke,
A hundred stories of battle bespoke,
While the hating step of the WORKOUT men
Told of the march over mountain and fen.
Suddenly from window near
Waved the folds of a banner bold and clear
The stars and stripes, endeared to all,
Cleaned for a moment before "StOnewall."
"March on !" cried the chieftain who, with
bowed head,
Passed by the window-not word more
said
But one of the men, in maddening scorn,
Rush'd up to the window on that bright
morn,
And struck from the hands of the lady fair
The loved old banner which she waved in
the air
With true Southern spirit, which cannot die,
From the ranks stepped a soldier, with the
flag borne high;
With uncovered head to the lady he came,
Presenting the banner for her to reclaim.
Over the meadows rich and fair,
Breathed the sweet-scented summer air,
But the tramp of thousand feet is still;
Many hearts are quiet which once did thrill
With nnspeakable joy at the sound of that
voice
Whose right it was to command them re-
joice
Over camp-storles at eve when, the battle
DER,
They talked of the morrow, and the trials
in store;
And still is the heart which with pride did
thrill,
On that golden morn, before Mary Quar-
trill.
*The above is simply a statement of the
facts in the case. Mary Quantrill is the
true heroine of Whittiers poem, Barbara
Fritchie," and she herself waved the flag
before Jackson as he and his men passed
through the streets of Frederick City,
Barbara Fritchie being confined to her bed
at the time of the raid of the. Confederate
soldiers, was unable to perform the deeds
of heroism ascribed to her in the celebrated
war-poem. V. MEREDITH BELL.

1t is a truth, remarks the Staunton
Spectator, and "there is no rubbing it
out" that the men who advertise do
most of the business, and they deserve
to do it. We make it rule, which
we think all should observe, not to
deal with those who do not advertise
their business. A man who is too stin.
gy to advertise, is too stingy to sell
good bargains, and this fact the people
are beginning to appreciate.
