WE confidently assert and can sat
isfactorily prove there is no instance
on record of a case of dyspepsia or
torpid liver that cannot be relieved
and positively cured by the systematic
use of Simmons Liver Regulator.
This is no vain boast, but an estab-
lished fact; and sufferers from these
diseases deny themselves the blessings
Of health and comfort by refusing to
give the Regulator a trial. It is no
compound Of adventurers, but mer-
itorious medicine which has won it's
high reputation in countries where
torpid livers prevail and where nature
supplies the roots and herbs to cure
the diseases common to its climate.

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
basis, and other approved remedies to
highten it's potency has been effected,
and the desired specific for these dis
eases has been found in the produc-
tion-TARAXINE. For sale by E.

IT was not in McFadden's drug
store that young and sprightly
school teacher addressed the clerk:
II would like a sponge BATH"
"Ah, oh, a-will you please repeat? !?
/ did not quite understand you," stam-
mered the clerk.
II would like a good sponge bath" :"
again demanded the customer, while a
pair of sharp, gray eyes, beaming with
wonder and impatience, made him
tremble.
More dead than alive, he managed
to tell his fair visitor his inability to
catch her meaning.
"Well, | never! If this isn't queer!
| think, l speak intelligibly enough.
L want you to give-me-a-
good-sponge-bath."
At this moment the proprietor
whispered: ''She wants a bath
sponge"
At the same moment she compre-
hended the trouble, and fled from the
store before she could be recognized
by any one, but too late. A gentle
man raised his hat to her, passed in,
and all was discovered.

tits reasonable and proper to oppose
forced assessments on persons holding
Office for the purpose of meeting the
expenses Of political campaigns. But
it is fact that it takes money, with
out using a dollar illegitimately, to
run campaign, 1t is easy enough to
get up into the regions Of the angels
and talk about running campaign
without money, but this thing is not
done in the sphere in which political
campaigns are conducted. Who then
shall pay these expenses? Candidates
are assessed. These assessments are
very often and generally unreasona-
ble In addition, private citizens who
are not candidates for Office, and who
do not expect to be, are asked and do
contribute. They believe in the prin-
ciples of their party and want that
party to succeed, and they contribute
for that purpose. Meetings can not
be held for nothing. Expenses of
speakers have to be paid. There is a
great deal Of printing to be done.
There cannot be public meeting
without music. Musicians must be
paid. They will not blow their brass
instruments for noting. What is
more natural than to ask Office holders
to help pay the legitimate expenses of
keeping in power the party that keeps
shem in office? Who has a better
right to contribute to the necessary
expenses Of a campaign than office
holders? No one, certainly. But
they are not bound to contribute.
Certainly not. And now comes the
President of the United States and the
Secretary of the Treasury. and say
that office holders are free to contrib
ute or refuse to contribute, and that
their tenure Of office shall not depend
upon their giving or refusing to give.
| In other words, Office holders are plac-
ed on an equal footing with other cit
liens. They can contribute or not, as
they see fit; and certainly it is no
crime for persons charged with the
conduct Of campaign to solicit SUBJ
scriptions from Office holders as they
do from private citizens.
The time has not come, nor is ii
likely to come soon, when persons can
hold Office in this country as rule
who do not belong to the party in
power. This Wilt do to talk about
but it is all talk. If the Democratic
party should get into power in 1884
the smell of Republican would no
be found in an office worth having il
six months thereafter. Sentiment j

Peruua.

This medicine was introduced to the
medical profession and to the public
at large by S. B. Hartman, M. D., in
1877, after he had prescribed it to over
10000 patients in almost every disease
to which flesh is heir.
1t is wholly composed Of numerous
vegetable ingredients, each one of
which is acknowledged by the medical
profession to be the most potent Of all
the herbal remedies known. to medical
science.
But its great virtue is mainly at
tributable to the new and peculiar
proportions in which the harmonious
ingredients are combined, and to the
extreme care exercised in it's manufac-
ture, using only the pure, active prin-
ciples, and excluding all that is crude
or irritating. No one should be with
out Peruna.

Short Sighted, as Usual.

The Democrats of California need
goggles, or something that will help
them to see few inches beyond
beer barrel or a stuffed ballot-box.
The Democrats of California, in State
Convention recently assembled, de-
clared:
We recognize the interests OF white labor every.
where in full alignment with the advancing move
ment Of the Democracy Of the Union.
In view Of the fact that there are
few millions of colored laborers in the
United States, why not say something
about advancing the interests of all
laborers. The determination of Dem
ocrats to draw the color line, is one of
the damphool positions it takes peri
odically, and one that will always keep
it in the rear. The truth Of the mat
ter is that the Democrats care nothing
for the labor interests of the country
till about election time.

jealousy.

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.

WHOLE NO. 1885.

SoxE of the able newspapers that
are ambitious to become the bulletin
boards Of doggeries affect to be greatly
worried lest Gov. Foster is very mis-
informed politician, and think the
Governor is mistaken in not believing
that the true Messiah has distended
stomach and a red nose. But we be-
ieve that Governor Foster is not gen.
orally very far out of the way in his
political calculations. He believes
that the Republicans will win in this
campaign as a party favoring Tenn
perance and Morality, opposed by .
party favoring universal drunkenness
and general deviltry.

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 or 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

Now THEY tell the story that Harr

Now THEY tell the story that Harri-
son, the ''boy preacher" is trembling
by the wayside, but this is possibly a
fabrication by the wicked world. The
story is that some lady admirers of the
bounding youth, built cottage upon
the Loveland Camp Ground, for his
use. This cottage cost the good ladies
in the neighborhood of $500. They
presented it to Brother Harrison, duly
fitted for immediate occupancy.
Brother Harrison accepted-but he
did not occupy. The story of the
wicked world is that Brother Harrison
sold the cottage and contents for
5000; and converted the money to the
use Of the orphans, and as the most
needy orphan within his knowledge
was the boy preacher, the money did
not travel long distance.
Seriously, we do not think such
monkeyish antics and driveling jabber
conduct generally, as Harri-
sons, can constitute effective preach
ing. The preaching of the Gospel
should appeal to ones qualities Of mind
and heart-and not attempt to pro-
woke ones mirth.

National Americana

THE National Tribune, of this city
says: when prohibition becomes law
in this country our boasted freedom
dies. The debating of what men
shall drink is despotism." That set
ties it. Just as soon as our laws deny
person the sacred right to go into a
saloon and get into proper mood for
cutting his wife's throat with q razor,
our boasted freedom dies. What is
freedom worth if it does not give a
man the liberty to make target of
himself for some one whom drink has
made mad to shoot at? The Trib-
une's head is level when it says that a
law which would compel US to drink
tea when we preferred coffee, or choc-
olate, would be despotic.

For the benefit Of the bucolic cor
respondent Of the Jefferson Democrat
who never met with a reason for pro-
hibiting 'social pleasure" but who
admits that drunkenness is attended
by calamities if not fatal results" we
clip the following from from dis
patch to the Globe-Democrat:
"CHARLoTTE, N. c., July 21.-A
horrible murder was committed near
Anson yesterday, the details Of which
are sickening. William Robertson,
a young farmer, allowed himself to be
persuaded to join a crowd Of spreeing
friends, and after they had whole
days debauch they returned home.
His wife, to whom he had not been
long married, was sitting by the win
dow knitting her husbands socks.
The sight of her infuriated him, and
picking up an ak by the wood-pile, he
deliberately walked up to the unfor-
tunate woman, who had been a devot-
ed wife to him, and with brutal ex-
clamation sent the keen blade crush
ing into her skull. She fell dead
without a groan. The murderer,
awakening to sense of the enormity
of his crime at the sight of the blood,
fled and has not yet been apprehend-
ed"
1t is safe to say that Mr.. Robert
sons spreeing friends were enjoying
the social pleasures" of the Charlotte
saloons, and would not be slow in de-
nouncing anybody asa narrow-minded
fanatic who should propose to inter-
fere with them simply because one of
their number occasionally amuses
himself by cutting his wife's head in
two. So long as "their pleasures do
not interfere with the rights of others,
has right to complain"

The man who tampered with a mule.

The man who whistled ''Pinafore."
And further on the miner cove
Who thawed his powder in the steve.

Upon a lofty seat;

With bags of fine new wheat.

With fire in his eye;
His wheat is sold and he does come
Well filed with good old rye.

For general information, the fol-
lowing has been compiled by the Pro-
bate Judge:
1. Males over IS, and females over
Is may marry, under Ohio laws, pro-
vided, if the male be under 81, or the
female under 18, consent must be had
from, first the father, second, (if

second order of consent will not be
taken when the first is possible; the
third will not be taken If the second
is possible. A valid consent must
either be personally made, in open
Court, or in writing, the signature to
be witnessed by two persons, and one
of the witnesses must appear in the
Probate Court, and make oath that he
or she saw the signing done or heard
the signer acknowledge it as his or her
own.

consent that my son John x. Smith,
who is over Is and under 81 yrs. Of
age, may marry Sarah Peters.
(Signed.) Peter Smith.
Witnessed by
Joseph Long,
John Doe"
And let John Doe Tor Joseph Long,

and under 49,"
For a mothers consent, use same
form as above, only adding that ''the
father is dead"
3. There is no authority given by

5. It is lawful for any ordained min
lister, within this state, who has OBJ
