 CHICAGO, October 5.-The Herald corre- spordent, who is travelling in southwestern Iceland, tells pathetic story of the life and death of Mick McGrath, the Man Who Lived in Boat, and whose cruel persecution attracted so much attention a short while ago. His eviction is one of the memorable events in the land agitation his recent death is an event of historic importance. It WAS he whom Mir. Hsaly publicly designated "Brave Mick McGxath, and it was for com- rnendinR him that, on some now-forgotten pressxt, She English lordisa in Ireland cIapped it's hssitating hand on the bold Irish parliamentarian and sent him into durance.
 The story of Mick McGrath is the epitome of the struggle between equity and law in Ireland; between capital and labor united in the tenant farmers industry on the one hand against idleness, uselesaneass brutality and force on the other, combined in hereditary foreign aristocracy.
 He lad a farm of more than average ssze You see it's Towering white-thorn hedges just on the other side of the carriage road. When he took it it was not the farm It is to-day.

And while he was doing these things, with his own money and his own labor and the labor of others paid by him, he married, and the years of thrifty toil brought him children He throve in all ways.

to get the testimony of the multitude who have used HooD's SARsAPARILLA for de- bility, languor, lassitude, and that general feeling of stupidity, weariness and exhaus- tion which every one feels during this season, we should be able to present to our readers such an overwhelming mass of commend atory messages, that the few who have not tried it would do so at once. It is positive fact, and has been so effectually demon strated that no one to-day denies it, that Hoods Sarsaparilla contains more real med cinal value than any article before the people.

At the recent Women's congress in Chicago the necessity of reform in mourning garb was the subject of paper read by pr. Julia Fl. Smith. Some of the reasons for change set forth by her were as follows: The reflex influence upon the wsarer of somber cloth ing is bad, keeping the attention unduly fixed spon the sorrow; the influence Of black is depressing upon others, especially children; the custom compels needless expense which is often terribly burdsnsOms upon the poor; nauch of the mourning worn is Haunt ing hypocrisy, the result of fashion rather than of true sorrow, and hence is demoraliz- ing; it is like second burial to take of the mourning garb and assume colorsagain. These points wers ably discussed and the congress received them with general approval.
