est Of all because unrelieved by motive,
is the individual who is anonymous
from pure malice. 1t is with this kind
the newspaper editor has most to deal.
He is continually beset by the anony-
nous scribbler or the anonymous ad-
wiser, who stands like a vicious devil
almost constantly behind the editorial
chair. There is a standing rule Of every
uell-regulated paper that anonymous
communications will not be published.
1t is a rule which ought to convey q
moral, but it is frequently disregard
ed. On the contrary, all sorts of notes
and accusations and libellous letters
are dropped into the editorial waste
baskets all over the country every day.
The character of some of these would
astonish the outside world, as much at
the knowledge that such despicable
writers could live, as at the contents
of the anonymous communications
The malicious letter writer does not
content himself. however, with trying
to wreak personal vengeance by news
paper, but often makes himself griev-
ously felt through private individuals.
There is still another sort who write
with another purpose, that of gain
These We style b~lack-mailers. Their
operations are wicked enough, but not
more SO than those who use the same
means to crafty malice.

out for Ohio Already.

The B. & o. Red Book for Ohio, 1888, Is ont, and
is beyond question the cleverest of all issues of
this popular political text book. 1t would be diff
icult to Imagine q more complete showing OF the
recent elections than is made In the Red Book
Not only are the regular tables of comparisons
introduced in full detail, but special tables as
we'll, embracing every feature of pc s.ible Inter
est. For Instance, in one table, the vote of each
party is shown by years back to and including
the presidential election of 1890. each result being
compared by counties with that Of 1883. Another
table of much Interest is that In which HoadIy's
vo. e Is compared with the vote of the Democratic
candidates for Governor back to Bishops time
A third special table shows Foraker's vote by
comparison with Fosters In 1881 and 1879, and
Vests in 1877. The Prohibition vote. and the vote
for the Prohibition amendment, is digested to the
clearest and fullest detail. and throughout the
little book 1t is q model OF compilation. To pre-
pare and publish SO exhaustive a work in SO short
q time following the election, was an enterprise
no other company but the B. & o. would have
thought of. While political text books issued for
sale Will not essay any showing of the Ohio cleo
ton until the first of the new year, here lie the
Red Book, with a much more elaborate and COM
piete showing than any OF them will attempt, out
less than a month after the memorable contest nj
the polls, and TO be had, postpaid, for the mere
| written request to G.. K. Lord, Baltimore. All the
returns are from the Official reports to the secre
tary o Estate. In addition, the new Red Book con
talns the fall list of member RI of the s Senate
and House of Representatives of the past, as well
as The incoming Congress, Governors OF States
date of converting OF Legislatures, and In fact al.
most no end of political Information. It is In

PILES.

PILES are frequently preceded by a
sense OF weight in the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing
the patient to suppose he has some at
lection of the kidneys or neighboring
organs. At times, symptoms of indi-
gestion are psesent, as f1atuleney, I'M

Anonymous Letter Writers.

An exchange says, the most contemp-
tibIe, cowardly and malicious sort of
devil society has to contend with is the
writer of anonymous letters. Compar-
ed with such, the thug, hired bravo or
assassin, who fingers in the shades of
night to wreak revenge upon some I'M
suspecting victim of his employer for
pay, is not wholly an unlovable crea-
ture. He, at least, risks his life OF ar
rest and Imprisonment for . definite
object-cash. For none he consents
to beat, bruise, MAIN or kill anybody,
the amount of money being proportion
ate to the risk. 1t is purely a matter
of business with such a man.. 1t is true
this has always been deemed a detesta-
BILE business. So ia that Of the profess
sional burglar. Yet the hired thug
and burglar are ss members of the So
cisl fabric less detestable and less to be
feared than the anonymous letter wri-
ter.
1t is principle that the offease is
more dangerous to the body polite in
proportion as it is impossible to guard
against it. For this reason horse-steal-
ing in thinly settled communities Ia
punished with death. The crime against
society committed by the anonymous
writer is one of those which assail So
ciety at It's most unprotected points.
Anybody who can use q pen or PEN
ell Or types can stab individual or whole
communities at pleasure. There is a
certain restraint imposed upon the
types by libel laws and by self interest
of publishers, and this restraint pro-
tects in a great measure the public at
individual assailed by personal letters.
Herein lies a concentration Of all the
littleness, hypocrisy, deceit, cunning,
cowardice, malice, hatred, Jealousy,
which go to make up the worst side Of
human nature.
The anonymous letter writer, of
whatever sex or station, belongs to the
basest of humanity. No matter for
VIAL pun pOSO bhC tCdLtOuy
whether for black-mail or ''pure Gus
sedness," or p%retension of benefits to
somebody, the underlying principle of
meanness is the same. No person prob
ably ever wrote such q letter without
having a genuine contempt for himself,
and this is the contempt of all mankind.
The anonymous letter writer COM
prises a variety of people. They are all
sDeaks. There is a we'll meaning Phar-
issical kind who are continually med
ding with other peoples business
They content themselves with "warn-
ing'' some dear friend Of a false wife
or husband, and planting the sharp
thorn of suspicion in the hearts OF
those they most affect to love. These
are They who wreck homes and sepa-
rate families and stir up domestic strife.
There is another kind who attempt
to win affections by txciting hatred to-
ward rivals. This works much youth.

If cts the style" that's all that is
necessary. Don't trouble yourself about
how it looks, how it feels, or what it
costs. These are matters of minor con
sideration. Once assured that it is smiled
upon by that queenly dame, Fashion,
every objection should sink into insig-
%nifcance. "Give me style or give me
death" seems to be the sentiment of the
times, SO keep step with the times, what
ever you do. 1t may cost you any amount
of money, but that's of mo conse-
quence." 1t may cost you days of misery
and sleepless nights, but that's ''only a
detail" These days it is better to be
out of the world, you know, than it is to
be out of style. Oh, yes, far better for
the daisies to be blooming above you,
fair maiden, and the marble slab at your
head, giving your age dead away, than
for you to appear among your sisters in
any garments however slightly out of
date. Fashion is the power on the throne
these days-bow with deferential obse-
q%uiousness to her dictates. They all do

Their vocal corps is the best travelling;
their Introductory overture never fails of
