If words
Were birds,
And swiftly flew
From tips

Owned, dear, by you;
Would they,

Be hawks aud crows?
Or blue,
And true.
And sweet? Who knows?
Let's play

Birds blue
And true,
With dove-like breast
'Tis queer,

We never knew
That words,
Like birds,

HALLS
Vegetable Sicilian
HAIR REVIEWER

was the first preparation perfectly adapted to cure
diseases of the scalp, and the first successful re-
storer of faded or gray hair to its natural color
growth, and youthful beauty. 1t has had many
imitators, but none have so fully met all the re-
quirements needful for the proper treatment Of
the hair and scalp. HALLS HAIR REVIEWER has
steadily grown in favor, and spread its fame and
usefulness to every quarter of the globe. Its un-
parslleled success can be attributed to but one
cause: the entire ftri.fiuient Of its promises.
The proprietors have often been surprised at the
receipt of orders from remote countries, where
they had never made an effort for its introduction.
The use for short time of HALLS HAIR
RESEwER wonderfully improves the personal
appearance. 1t cleanses the scalp from all i'm
puritiss, cures all humors, fever, and dryness,
and thus prevents badness. 1t stimulates the
weakened glands, and enables them to push for
ward new and vigorous growth. The effects of
this article are not transient, like those of alco-
holic preparations, but remain a long time, which
makes its use matter of economy.

A REAL THING.

There is nothing in all the range of
human thought more real than heaven.
1t is a real, tangible place. Some i'm
agine that it is state only, and that
the spirit, when freed from its earthly
relations, will float away in some aerial
region-everywhere in general, and
nowhere in particular. Even Christians
sometimes think of heaven as if it was
only a vision. God and angels are
real; heaven and hell are real. Man in
the resurrection will be as real as he is
in his mortal state. 1t is time we had
done with the ideal; we should think of
the hereafter state as being even more
real than the present state. Nothing
in that state will be deceptive or vain |;
everything will be just what it seems to
be. We are continually approaching
the real, far away from the vain and
deceptiye,

ENEMIES OF THE STATE.
from the St Louis Republican. I

From the st Louis Republican,.
The failure of justice i'll criminal trials
Of all grades and the violation in any
material respect of statutes made tor
the protection of society arc always re-
GREETED by good citizens. There can be
but the smallest number III any COM
munity who can be profited by the
of justice and the triumph
Of lawlessness. ANY reasonable ex-
pressiO:.s of sentiments in the line of
the above reflections, therefore, is sure
to meet with general Endorsement. But
the canting, hypocritical, ostentatious
parade of simulated distress by few
public journals aud others in this state
on account of the failure of the courts
in q recent trial to convict an offender
ON one count Of many upon which he ia
on trial is almost too gross and appa-
rent to serve its despicable purpose.
Even the casual reader must detect the
grovelling object of those whose regard
for the public good is thus subordinated
to the hope Of gaining little temporary
applause or partisan advantage from
factitous events which are capable Of
being distorted and misreprcsented.
Instead of real regret that bandit has
escaped upon first trial the event is
received with delight which is not con-
cealed at all to those who follow the
discussions of the subject for two con-
secutive days. These destructives in
mera's and politics are not only happy
when the impertections of the law and
the executive machinery in any instance
appear where the facts can be made
useful in their general plan of dealing
with public opinion, but it is source
of deep regret to them that the era of
highway depredations is probab y end
ed i'll this state. AS the professional
grave digger thrives most when
plague prevails so these moral scaven-
gers find their greatest opportunities
when the community suffers most under
misfortunes from which none have ell
tire immunity. There are few Re-
publican leaders and so-called Inde-
pendents in this state who would not
be without comfort if portion of its
people should be swallowed up by an
earthquake, as those of Ischia and Java
recently were, if there was only some
specious ground upon which they could
credit the misfortune to the Democratic
party. Current events and the general
happiuess anu prosperity oI tne people
prove that these sinister chroniclers
and prophets of evil have not had con-
trolling influence. They have exer-
cised some power in some directions
where partial statements and injurious
falsehood could not be fully contradic-
ted. But it is pleasant to know they
are becoming each year of less account
and their breath less noxious.

AN EDITORS TESTIMONY.

New York, September 26.-Joseph
Medill, publisher of the Chicago Trib-
une, was q witness to-day before the
United States Senate sub committee on
education and labor. He said he had
been connected with the press since
l848. The chief cause of the impecu-
uious condition of the masses of labor
ers in this country he attributed to
their own improvidence. The only
way to improve them was to teach
them to save. Too much of the earn
ings of the laborer were spent in liquor
and tobacco. It has been calculated
AMOUNT ANNUALLY SPENT
by the laboring population in drink was
$lOO, ,OOO. 600, and at least S2OO, 900 900
more is spent in cigars, tobacco and
useless alnusemcnts. The high licenses
to saloons would do much toward
lessening the evil. The witness said he
had very little faith in political prohiei-
ton. Unhealthy tenement-houscs
should be torn down.
THE PRESENT TARIFF
was feecing farmers, and they were
beginning to understand it. Co-oper-
alton could not be successfully carried
out under the present condition. 1t
could only be possible when co-opera-
tors were better educated, as cooper
alton required 9 high degree Of mtelli-
gencs. What the country wanted was
/ more mechanics. Industrial schools
should be estabiished in every large
city, where education in technical arts
could be obtained.
In speaking Of the railroad question,
Mr.. .Medill said: it.Some means should
be adopted for securing uniformity of
rates. Railroads should not be permit
ted to exercise the power Of arbitrarily
changing tho va.ue Of all the products
of the country. Both stale and federal
legislation should be employed 70 fem-
| edy.this evil. ? The capitalization Of
many railroads, was far n excess of the
Cost 'ot CONSTRUCTION Of the roads, and
they were annually fleeing thespeople
of the country out OF millions Of dol
lars in profits.

E. Hall and wife, I. w. Barns and
wife, Thomas Ainsworth and wife,
VIM. Hays and wife, George johnson
and wife, S. D. Lilliston and wife,
John Venable, Miss Davis and many
others. One of the commendable fca-
lures of this gathering was its religious
character. Another was the Christian
temper displayed throughout its pro-
ceedings. 1 employ the word Chris
tian in distinction from the word religi-
GUS deliberately, because meeting or
man may be eminently religious in
form and be utterly destitute of the
essential spirit Of Christianity. Thirdly
and as corollary of the last there was
notably an utter absence of anything
like gossip or scandal, on the contrary
there was q sweet-mindedness, a
warmth of neighborly and social feel
ing that was inspiring and sent one
home 2 larger nsbler aud better man.
And such meetings, conducted upon
such principles and enjoyed in such q
spirit ARE good and healthful and worthy
to be perpetuated, for they cherish
neighborly- and generous sentiments,
they make men sympathetic, they
smooth away asperities and animosi-
ties; they unity the country in know
ledge and interests; they foster love and
kindliness, and Difference for the aged
and intirm, and unite the various frag-
ments of society into consistent
harmonious and sympathizing whole.
Among all the commendable things we
noticed one or two not so commenda-
BILE. i..
We thought the entertainment toe
rich, expensive and elaborate. An in
stitution so good as this ought not te
be encumbered with any unnecessary
smbarrassments, aud have its very ex
istence menaced by habit Of enter
tainment that is growing into such pro
portions of costliness and labor as t.
gradually diminish its patrons AM
threaten to overwhelm it in the YER,
magnificence of its feasts.
But in this matter our goot
D friends can find q cover of excuse ant
D even vindication in the fact that
was not simply an old mems entertain
0 ment, but feast commemorative of tn
twenty-sixth anniversary of their mar
0 riage, and on this account they wer
justified in making banquet as abun
0 dant and loyal as would present sui

caveat for others, that they do not see
to emulate or out-do, and thereby Ell

as sweet and beautiful as it is uniqu
and rare. JUSTICE.
