QUE reporter relates the following remarkable ex-
perence OF one of our most liable and substantial
merchants, Deacon Stephen @. Mason. Mr.. Mason
says that from 1869 to 1880 he suffered terribly from
frequent very attacks of innammatory rhenma
tism The last attack in the winter of % ard ~ was
so severe to render him unable TO take step In four
months His physicians thought that one side OF him
was parayzcd and both knees became so stn that he
could not bend them The doctors pronounced his case
incurable leaving him in terrible condition He was
then induced to try Hunts Remedy by medical
friend who told him that his whole sickness and trou
BILE arose from kidney disease. and convinced Mr.
Mason that such the and after taking II six
weeks was entirely cured and Is now in such excellent
physical condition that neither damp weather nor wet
feet affect him disagrecaby. Mr.. Mason says that his
cure Is complete It Is than two years since he
has had the disease. ~ attribute my most rcmarka
bic cure solely TO Hunts Remedy. the lnfable Kid

A Doctors Occupation Gone.

A good story is told OF a doctor whose
suffered greatly from dyspepsia, nervous
ness and weak kidneys. His medicines
seemed to relieve her but did no permanent
good. Her nephew induced a trial of DIR.
Guysott's Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla
which benefited her so much that she dis
missed the doctor. His peculiar sensitive
ness caused him to give up his practice, and
instead of responding to professional calls,
he often merely grunted take Guysott's,"
which saying became proverbial in the
neighborhood and large sale for this
medicine soon sprang up.

Sweat.

The skin is an orange as much as the
lungs. AS the latter contain millions
of minute cells, by which their princi-
pal work is done, so it is with the form
er. These cells, in both cases equally,
connect with the external world by
means of tubes through which waste
products are conveyed out of the sys-
tenn.
Most of the organs of the body, be-
sides their own proper work, do more
or less "vicarious'' work; that is, work
belonging to some other organs. So
the sweat-glands, when the system is
specially charged with poisonous mat
ter, or other organs are partially OBJ
structed or permanently destroyed, may
carry off more or less of the special
poisons accidentally taken into the sys-
tenn, as well as the SYSTEMS own waste
products. In rare cases, the sweat has
contained blood.
But the chief product of the sweat
glands is water, holding in solution
chloride of sodium, or common salt
This varies greatly in different persons
and in different circumstances, but av-
erages about two pounds day. Under
the influence of cold the glands are
much less active; under heat, much
more so.
Thus nature utilities the sweat to reg
ulate the temperature of the body.
Certain drugs, also. increase the amount,
and thus hasten the elimination of waste
and poisonous products. In this way
colds, and some other feverish condi-
tons, may often be checked.
1t is now known that there are special
nerves that control the action Of the
sweat-cells; that sweating is due to the
action of certain nerve-centers; and that
it is on these, primarily, that heat and
sudorifics Sweating drugs) act, though
there are some few drugs which act d.
rectly on the glands.
Inthe same way. certain emotions act
on the nerve-eenters. and thus cause
profuse perspiration. So also does a
certain condition of the blood in the
sweat preceding death Youths Com
pdssion.

The presence of these germs in the air in
rooms occupied by sufferers with such af-
fections, points to the necessity of keeping
them well aired and summed. Weak per-
sons should not expose themselves by
sleeping or remaining in such rooms or by
too intimate association with invalids.
All clothing and discharges should be
thoroughly disinfected and kept clean.
Mucus, saliva, ETC., must not be expector-
rated and allowed to dry upon the floor to
be stirred up and diffused through the air
by sweeping and busting. Pure air and
plenty of sunshine are necessities in these
affections and good food a requirement to
keep the body strong and capable of resist
ing the inroads of these minute bodies.
Every individual should carefully watch
of the vital organs or impurity of the blood
should be corrected in time.
The corrosive acids and mineral poisons
are found to possess the power OF killing
these germs, but the dangerous nature Of
such powerful agents prevents their inter-
germs when once within the system it is
necessary to resort to vegetable remedies
in order to cleanse the blood of the germs
without injury to the patient.

THE COLORED CONVENTION.
From the Daily Gazette, Little Rock, Ark !

-~N~-@s
After completing its labors, the col
ored convention adjourned sine die.
Delegates were appointed to the
national convention to be held in
Louisville, and President Arthur's ad-
mlnlstration was endorsed in manner
that VIII make our national angler glad
he was born. Judge Gibbs, who holds
a federal Office, and could probably be
prevailed upon to continue the sacri-
tce at the old stand through another
presidential term, wrote the resoiu-
tlons. He took up the bloody shirt
and Mapped it with much vigor-not
probably to create effect at home. but
1T Is believed these demonstrations will
thrill the Northern heart. One of the
confessions now almost daily made by
the republican stalwarts of weakness
comes in the guise of theatrical dis
plays Of the bloody shirt. 1t must be
confessed that the mild and amiable
Judge Gibbs, who, as before remarked.
might possibly he induced to suffer
several years longer as federal office
holder, did very neat job.
The Daily Gazette, a Democratic
sheet published in the State of Arkan-
sas, was little surprised when Hon.
NJ. W. Gibbs offered a resolution en-
dorSing President Arthur's admins
tration. Judge Gibbs is our leader and
Moses in the West, and as we have
often said that the Democratic party
must 60. What difference does it
make whether Judge Gibbs is an
officeholder or anything else? He
had the power to have a resolution
passed endorsing the present admins
tration, the Gazette to the contrary
notwithstanding. The Gazette and
the Democratic party must 90.

Hon. ]. 5. Barbour, the Congressman
from over the river, is not a direct rep
resentative of the District, he is Vir-
ginian by birth, residence and repre-
sentation. But if we had to choose
from the entire Democratic party of
the United States, and say which of
these shall you take, our voice would
have called the name of Mr.. Barbour.
We have the satisfaction of knowing
that our citizens will never bc received
otherwise than with courtesy, and that
car wants and requests viii receive
fall and earnest as well as respectful
consideration at the hands of him
whose name heads this article Mr..
Barbour belongs TO the old school Of
gentlemen, il honest intentions, high
character and integrity. The people
of the District will find in him warm
friend, and one who will listen to their
requests and attend to their peculiar
interest in Congress. We wish the
Democratic party had more Barhours.

are published in such Northern cities
as Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
Washington, indianapolis and Cleye-
land. A few devote themselves to re-
ligi0us news and discussions, but nearly
all deal with politics, and all except
one o. two are fully in favor of sup
porting the Republican party. The
1tmes'S interview with Mr.. Chase,
editor of the Washington Bee, the
colored newspaper here, and the letter
the conversation called forth from Mr.
Fortune, editor of the New York
Globe, have been widely copied and
commented upon by their colored eX-
changes, and the general opinion is
that Mr.. Chase expresses the sense of
the colored voter. He took the ground,
it will be remembered, that the So
called Independent 'colored party was
small and empty movement, and was
discountenanced by the real leaders of
the colored people. 1t is as yet the
day of small beginnings with colored
journalism. There are no daily papers,
and no effort is made to compete with
the prosperous daily and weekly press
in securing news. The circulation of
all these newspapers is also limited,
although one of them, the Baptist or
gan in Philadelphia, prints an edition
of 10000 copies. The average circu-
lation is probably under 1000. Ad-
vertisements are few, and taken at low
rates, and it is doubtful if any of the
publications, beyond few exceptions,
are source of profit.
Register Bruce will leave for Ohio
on Tuesday, where he is to take part
in the campaign. The ex-senator is
partly ian Ohio man. as he found and
married his wife in Cleveland. Mr..
Bruce rarely addressed the Senate
while a member of that body, but he
is an orator of fine powers, and
most entertaining story-teller when
in the mood. He reminds one in dig
nifty, of bearing, power of facial ex-
preston, and overmastering vehem-
ence when aroused, of that greatest
figure of the stage, Salvini's Othello.
He is looked upon with great respect
by his race all over the country, and in
political matters is as nearly their
leader as any one man.
