as to leave no doubt of its origin. 1t says;
Every application for an examination
shall contain, among other things, a state
ment under oath setting forth his or her
actual bona fde residence at the time of
making the application, as well as how long
he or she has been a resident of said place
Probably nowhere outside OF Congress
would sn application be described as he or
she" The difficulties of carrying out this
provision can only be appreciated by those
who have given the subject attention. The
provision can only apply to future ap-
continents of course, and as q result the
places in the departments can not be really
equalized between the States until the
present generation Of Office holders dies
out. For example, the District Of Colum-
bia would be entitled, under the census OF
1850. to eight appointments in the Treas
ury Department, if they were decided &C.
cording to population. The District has
actually 42S in the departments. Plainly
only the hand of death will make over the
public service here in accordance with the
spirit of this bill.

Some of the Law = Ridiculous Inaee n ra-

WASHINGTON, March I3.-The Civil Ser
vice Commissioners are busy consulting to-
gether and thus far principally occupied
in house-hunting, like ordinary unreform-
ed people. Their presence here has ma
turally caused good deal OF talk over the
law un der which they are acting. 1t is an
interesting fact, which ought to go on rec
ord now at the beginning OF this expert
ment, that all of the important difficult
ties in the law which have been dis
covered by experienced and practical
men here in the departments, SD far as |
have been able 10 find them ont, are the re
suit of the meddling by the self-called prac.
teal men in Congress; whereas, IL the law
had keen left in the shape in which the So
called unpracticsl-the reformers-frsmed
il, few of the criticisms now made would
have been heard. The chief Of these diff
culties is the clause requiring the appoint
mentS in the departments here TO be appor-
toned among the States and Territories &C.
cording TO population. The remainder OF

GIVING AID.
Distribution OF Funds 10 the Flood
Sufferers

EVANSVILLE, IND, March 1S.-Mayor ia
to distribute money TO the sufferers from
the flood, sends the following report Of his
trip. He will come up tomorrow: The
first point of inquiry was at Uniontown,
where it was found that $1,000 had been
sent by John Shilleto, OF Cincinnati, and
$500 by James G.. Bennett. This being the
only foreign aid received by the town.
Impressions were that Uniontown was badly
afflicted, though Mr.. J. c. Hamilton in
formed Mayor Jacobs that the wants of the
needy were bein. met He seemed diSin-
Clined to accept aid. Mayor Jacobs how
ever, gave him a check for $500, expressing
the hope that il would be iudiciously
spent. Raleigh, a very small settlement,
vas found substantially annihilated, ex-
Cept two families. The balance OF the
hamlet had retired in the country. Mayor
Jacobs offered these two remaining families
$500 They refused unless the balance OF
the inhabitants shared in the benefit.
Among them were two colored families.
Mr.. Jacob thereupOu awarded them S3O),
which Will oe equally divided among all the
sufferers az this point. The generosity OF
The remaining families deserved
Equally Generous Treatment.
Captain Cameron wills that this money
is properly applied here.
At Shaw nee town, while the work of the
food was apparent it did not impress us
ms being as complete and far reaching as
has been announced. Many houses which
we're removed from their foundations will
vet be serviceable, and the town appears
throughout thrifty. Like Kentucky, We
found Illinois had abandoned her river
towns to tine charity of outsiders. NJ.
Jacobs offered to leave a sum commensu-
rate with what would appear neceSSa-
nv to the towns, bus he was told the people
were getting on nicely. He left $500 to the
order Of the mayor Of Millspaugh, with in
structions 70 call on him il further aid
should be needed. IT was in our judgment
that Caseyville and Uniontown proper.
tionally have Ibeen more severely stricken
than Shawneetown. The fact of their be-
ing sfiiall and decidedly below the scale
OF wealth OF that town makes the distress
on them hard to bear. There are fewer to
bear the burden. The Mayor accordingly
gave $500 To Mr.. d. A. Brooks for the ben
eft of CaseyyilIe. Mr.. Brooks said there
were fully 400 persons in and about Casey
willie needing daily ratious.

Who can tell what baby thinks
When IL wakes from It's forty winks,
And rubs It's face into numerous kinks,
And stares at the light that comes n at the
chinks
OF its rock-s-by nest, and glpas and blinks,
Who can tell what baby thinks?
Who has courage to venture guess
As 70 wbatthe baby may think of its dress,
Trimmed and RULED TO such exeess'
or what the baby may think of the mess
For heafsche and tooth ache and stomach dis
tIess,
And for ali its siliugs, more or less?
What does It think when it wakes at night,
With all the pretty things OFT of sight,
With nobody stirring and making light"
Does il think its condition Is far from right,
And that bis folks are not Ct all polite,
And treat their visitors far from r1gnt,
And that darkness is meant for g personal shSat!
Is that the reason IL takes delight
In screaming with all its personal might,
And rousing the neighboEs AZ dead Of night
And what 60 you thirk that toe baby thinks2
Looking about like a mild-eyed lynx.
Watching he spoon that tinkles and clinks,
While papa is warming its catnip drinks,
over q candle that glimmers and blinks,
Humming and drumming out Capt links, J"
That the children skate to, now, at the rinks,
What do you think that the baby thinks?
Do you say that babies are thinkless things,
With no other light tnan what instinct brings.
With brains ss downy as butterflies wings,
And heads as empty as bell that swings,
over and under, and rings and sings,
When muscular motion is moving the strings?
Did you say that babies are thinkless things?
Then when does the think begin to grow1
And when does the mind begin TO snow?
And when does the baby begin to know
That this is true, or that Is so?
Say when you find you, please let me know!

THAT SETTLES IT.
Brought Into Competition With the World,
the Best Carries on the Honors.

At the great Centennial Exhibition of 1876. the
leading products Of all the branches Of the worlds
industries were all assembled at Philadelphia. To
carry Of a prize in the face of that tremendous
competition was task of no ordinary difficulty.
Inventions aud preparations for the alienation OF
pain and the cure of disease were present in the
greatest possible variety, representing the skin
and the profoundest study OF the age, and ii may
be of vital importance to you, personally, TO know
that the highest and only medal given to rubber
Porous Plasters, was awarded to the manufactur-
ers Of BENSON'S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER,
by the following jury.
Dr. VIM. Roth, Surgeon General, Prussian Army.
H. Thompson. A. NJ, NJ. D., Washington, DC.
C. B. White, II. D., New Orleans
Ernest Fleisch, N. D., Austria.
The decision was afterwards confirmed by the
medical jury at the last Paris Exposition. Know
ing the value OF such high and unbiased testi-
mony the medical profession, both in the United
States and in Europe quickly threw aside the old,
slow.acting plasters they had been using. and
adopted Benson's in their regular practice. That
physicians and surgeons of the broadcast reputa-
tons did this distinctly proves the intrinsic merit
of the article.
1t is 20 more than Just 10 add that the average
physician o. to-dsyis not dominated by the pre-
JUDGE which retarded the progress and modified
the success of his predecessors more than twenty
five years ago. He accepts hints from all quarters
and endorses and adopts demonstrated healing
agents wherever he finds them.
The right of Banson's Capcine Porous Plasters to
STAND at the head OF all external applications
whatsoever for the mitigation or cure of disease,
is no longer questioned.
Let the purchaser, however, be on his guard
sgainst imitation. The genuine has the word
CAPCINE cut in the middle.

Camping out Is 8 favorite way of spending

mean 10 explore. It costs too much in time
and money to start directly by wagon from
any Of the great centres of population. AL.
most unexplored forests can be reached by
rail in day or two from any of our large
cities.
Expeditions on horseback or on foot are
also gaining in favor with the young people.
There is q certain sense of adventure a zeal
Of discovery, which belongs alone to this
kind of travelling. Whether it is chesp or
not, depends wholly on the route traversed
and the practical ability Of the tourists.
A lady and her daughters Travelled through
the State of Pennsylvania on horseback last
August, resping large harvest in pleasure
and health.
A well-known botanist was accustomed 10
travel by rail to Southwestern Virginia,

two months through the mountains of the
Carolinas, returned and sold the horse in
Richmond for q large advance in the price
over the amount he paid for the animal.
