You Cannot Buy It in the Bar-rooms

You Cannot Buy 1t in the Bar-rooms
What an absurd idea it is to send a sick
man, with an ailing stomach, a torpidliver
and impoverished blood, to bar-room to
swallow some stimulating Stuff, and call it
medicine
An enormous amount of mischief iscon-
stantly done by men who thus .trife with
themselves. Instead of healing their dis
eases, they make them worse Instead of
gaining strength they only acquire the dis
graceful habit of tippling
1t is point worth noting in connection
with Broecn's Iron BHters, that this valu-
able midicine is not sold in bar-rooms, and
will not be. 1t is not drink. 1t is a
remedy. 1t is not made to tickle the pal
ate of old topers. 1t is made to heal dis
ease. 1t is not made to promote the good
fellowship of a lot of bibulous fellows
standing around Il bar and asking each
other, What will you take? 20 1t is a
true tonic an iron medicine containing
the only preparation of iron which can
safely and benelicially be taken into the
system.
Medicines are considered in
the treatmeut..of obesity, but there are.
says writer in Il medical journal, three
methods by which a fat person can be re-
duced. The first and most important
thing to be considered is the diet. All
saccharine foods must be avoided: the
amount Of water must be reduced to
minimum, and regular diet exercise must
be taken Friction of the skin is another
method of treating obesity, but the prime
factors in the reduction of fat are care
full dietary and plenty of exercise.

Political Notes.
TURN the rascals out.
THE Republican party must 60.

THE Republican party must 60.
The land grant of the Northern
Pacific railroad embraces $4,000, 900
acres, valued now ut SlS7, 500, 900;
enough money to build the road with q
surplus Of S70,OoO.OOo That is proba-
bly, the biggest land steel the Repub-
lican party has engineered through
Congress.
john SHERMAN has been in politics
thirty years. His income, legitimate,
has been his salary rs Congressman
and Senator, $1,000; rs Secretary of
the Treasury something more. The
question now is how he has managed
to live all these years and accumulate
millions?
IT is said that the Republicans can
not carry New Jersey because of al
apathy among the party and the
masters of the people, which began
with the killing Of Garfield. The peo-
pie thought that if the Republican
party had got to that point that it MUIR
dered its own candidate in fight over
the Offices, it better take a rest"
The Republicans have been in power
for twenty-three years. During that
time all the great monopolies which
now overshadow the country, all the
giant corporations whose power is felt
in nearly every State of the Union and
in almost every town in those States,
have sprung into existence. The PAM
pered national banks are the creatures
of the Republican party. Every law
designed to foster monopoly and to
give undue power to corporate wealth
has been favored by Republican Con-
crosses and Republican administrations.
Since 1865 corporations have obtained
all they wanted from the Legislative
and executive branches OF the Govern
ment, and have in return helped the
party that has favored them to retain
power. York ltorld,

Franklin, as everybody knew, would
not he brought lack.
MIR. Franklins pastor must answer
far him them said the minister; and
Mr.. Strong walked up the aisle amid
great cheering. In a few graceful
words he told the congregation that
Mr.. Thorpe was right in his conjecture;
that the plan Of aiding them in their
difficult undertaking was conceived and
set in motion by Mr.. Franklin, who had,
nevertheless, been supported in the
heartiest manner by the gentlemen OH
whom he Ind called; that the whole
scheme was the inspiration Of u moment,
and the fruit Of few hours work; and
that he trusted that the result Of it
would bc, not only tile emancipation Of
the Methodist Church from the bondage
Of debt, but tho strengthening of the
bonds Of fellowship among the churches
Of New Albion. 10 that wish there
were many feryent responses and after
prayer of thanksgiving by the pastor
and singing OF "Blest he the Tie that
Binds, the congregation broke up.
The day will never he forgotten by
any who Ind part in its doings, and the
fruit Of the seed then sowed will be
reapcd in the increasing charity Of
many generations. - The Century.

John =. Jewett was asked how he
came to publish Mrs. Stoves "Uncle

Il suspect it was principally because
I was rabid anti-slavery man, al
though the fact that l had previously
been tho publisher Of book by tho
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher may have
had something to do with it. After q
careful examination l concluded that
the story would not only repay the cost
Of publication in book form, but would
yield some profit. Possibly / was
helped to that conclusion by my firm
conviction that the volume would prove
4 strong anti-slavery document. At
all events, expressed willingness to
publish it. and the next thing was to
arrange the terms. Prof. Stowe was
