Oh, ,MyBBa0k!

That's a commoncxpres-
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will so quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Browns IRON BITTEKs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM. P. Marshall, of Logans-
port, Indiana, writes: "My wife
has for many years been trou.
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one
bottle of Browns Iron Bitters,
and can truthfully say that
she has been so much benefited
that she pronounces it the
only remedy of many medi-
cines she has tried"
Leading physicians and
clergymen use and recon-
mend BROwN's IRON BIT
TIERS. 1t has cured others
suffering as you are, and it
will cure you.

FoRECAsT1NG POLITICAL RESULTS.

Under the above heading tie May
issue of the CHURCH AND HOME, pub
lished at this place discusses the politi-
cal situation:
"The Democrats know that they will
elect the President of 1884. The Re-
publicans know that they are to con-
t:nue in power. The Democrats know
that the Republicans will divide and
the Republicans know that the Dem
ocrats will divide. 1t is not safe to
count on division in either of the great
parties of this country. Each party
possesses wondrous leverage power
in time of a general election. 1t is
kr own certainly, by some of our me-
tropolitan exchanges, just who will be
the nominee. In fact, however, moth
ing, absolutely nothing, is known about
1t. Going over the history of the past
twenty years, the Democratic party has
made choice of General Mcclellan,
Horace Greeley, Samuel J. Tilden, and
S. Hancock as her standard
bearers. 1t could not have been posi-.
Bile to have chosen men more dissimi.
lar, and with the exception of Mr.. Til
den, neither of these men were promi-
nent as politicians of the party. The
Republicans have pursued a different
policy. They have had General Grant,
General Hayes and General Garfield.
Grant was not a politician but was
elected and re elected on his war record.
General Hayes, before his nomination
or the Presidency, was a prominent
politician in the state Of Ohio. As a
politician, no man stood higher than
General Garfield, but what of the CON-
ng contests
With the Democrats, Tilden, Thur
nan and Bayard are IN good standing.

times proceeding "history." The evil
dence drawn from existing and dead

ALEXANDER iii.


At last, Alexander Romanoff has
been aanointed with holy oil, touched
with the sacred crown, and proclaimed
Alexander III, Emperor of all the Rus
sias. For more than year the cere.
mony has been delayed on account of
the personal fear of the Emperor. Such
was the discomfort among the middle
classes. especially the students, and
such the desperation of the Nihihsts,
that the dread prevaded, not only the
mobiles OF Russia. but those OF all Eu-
rope that the enemies of the Roman.
offs would never allow the imperial
crown to touch the head of Alexander.
Kings and Queens trembled as the
day approached. Interference with the
ceremonies would be blow at mon-
archy all over the world, and every
crowned head felt that the title to its
own proud covering might be SHAKEN
by the events of last Sunday.
Great misfortunes do not come when
expected. because precautions are TAX
en- to prevent them. So it was in this
case; every possible precautlon was
taken. Soldiers with bristllng bayo-
nets thronged every street IN Moscow
The great Kremlin square was packed
with an armed throng which surround
ed the royal couple with an lmpenetra.
bic wall ofsteel. live thousand secret
police haunted the city in every quarter,
ready to pounce upon every individual
whose movements were the least sus-
picious, so that Nihilist could no:
possibly have made single hostile
demonstration without being instantly
killed, and because there was not such
a demonstration, the autocrat of all
the Russlas proclaims to the world that
there is peace between himself and his
people, that the discomfort has passed
away. But he does not feel 1t, he
knows better. Ten millions of dollars
were spent upon the coronation cere-
monies, and it was perhaps the most
imposing pageant ever witnessed in
modern times, overpowering all op-
position, awing into silence, for the
time, all enemies OF the crown. There
is evidently still among the Russian
masses firm belief in the divine right
of Kings, and the ceremonies proceed
ing the coronation proves that they are
tinctured with large element of bar
barism of an oriental type, AS the
glamour of the ceremonies pass away,
the discontented elements will again
rise to the surface and the third Alex
ander will find that he rests not upon
bed of roses. And should the GUS
tom Of impnsoning Russian subjects
or hurrylng them away into a Siberian
exile without trial, or an opportunity
for defense continue, we need not be
surprised any day to read the startling
news that Russia is again without an
Emperor. Alexander the III has it in
his power to quiet all disturbances and
make his people happy, and to make
for himself name, second to none who
wears a crown, but despotism in
Russian Emperor does not go hand in
hand with long life.
