SIR: In the name of God, thank you for
the discovery of Durang's Rheumatic Remedy,
without which would, no doubt, to-day, still
be prisoner in my room, where / had been
confined, previous to using your remedy, more
than twenty months. During this long con-
finement l suffered untold tortures-such tor
lures indeed, as are known only to sufferers
from rheumatism. What, then, can | not say
in praise of this great Remedy? Is it not
enough to assure you that after the best ply
sieians had failed to give me even temporary
relief, few bottles of your medicine brought
me to my feet, and made a well woman of me,
TO the utter amazenlent of every one? I am ut
loss for words or language to express adequate
praise for the benefit derived. Say the most
extravagant thing in behalf of your remedy,
and / win indorse it.
Ii any of your customers are in the least
skeptical on the subject, let them write me,
or, what would be still better, to our druggist,
Mr.. Casweli, who sent for the medicine for me,
and who is well acquainted with the facts of
my long suffering and recovery. Hoping this
Neutrality-suspicious. certificate may be the means
OF some poor sufferer trying your medicine, I
remain, yours, truly,

he can. 1t is surprising how much

advantage of it as regularly and
gratefully as she does of the nightly
sleep, and do her best to make up
lost time. People, on the other

Two sermons and three or four hours
of solid reading are rest to some on
Sunday, while to others such a
course amounts to positive Sabbath
breaking. Sunday is day of rest
not day Of work, religious or other
wise-it is day for repose, not for eX-
haustion. But what the dogmatists
on one side and the illiberal liberals
on the other are apt to overlook is
the fact that all men do not rest

LEGATIONS are taking more hopeful view OF
the immediate future aud Of the years
business, and the general state oil trade,
though not soyigorous as could BIO wished,
gives substantial basis to rest the hope
upon.
Coal ought to command better prices to
insure safe business to the operator and
steady employment at good wages to the
miner. The iron and steel trade shows
signs OF a revival, though many manufae'
turers continue to take view which. II not
dependent, is far from rosy. But in this
line prices seem to be fairly maintained.
Steel rails show an upward tendency,
orders at s43 ton being refused in the
West. At the same time we hear oil fur
naces going out Of blast; though how much
Of this Is owing to an actual lack OF demand
and how much to the pending readjust'
ment OF wages is difficult to determine. Out
aide Of coal and iron there is much bet
ter feeling, accompanied, 1t is true, by an
underlined uneasiness which the condition
OF affairs does not seem to warrant
1--WE turn TO the March business oil The
railroads, and to that for the quarter end.
inp with March, we find excellent results.
The Financial Chronicle has reports from
sixty six railroads, representing the enor-
nous total Of 81 1929 miles; and these show
an increase OF SS,S75,O0O or II per cent in
business, as compared with March OF 1882,
at which period also the returns showed q
large growth. The comparison OF March
growth for four years is Interestingly
1880 an increase Of % per cent; in 1881, oil
0 per cent; in 1882 Of % per cent; in 1883, oil
II per cent The only falling back is in
the rate oil increase, but the general i'm
provement is sustained. The western roads
once more make the best showing, owing
to the recent free movement OF grain held
back during the winter after plentiful har'
vests. and now induced by large stocks at
home, fair demand abroad and low ocean
freights to seek foreign markets.
The crop probabilities for the present
year are variously viewed, though the out
look is generally admitted to be not only
better than at the last report from the
Agricultural Department, but there ia
thought to be promise Of an average crop.
Rains and warmer weather have come to
relieve the backwardness Of the sea-
son. There Is no doubt that large
part Of last years crop remains
in producers hands; this is now seeking
market and the returns will put more
money in circulation. Prices, it is true,
are not satisfactory to the farmer, but a
speedy improvement is not looked for, and
this will doubtless lead to ireer sales. This
does not seem to be good time to hold on
to wheat, among other reasons because oil

There is nothingin the outlook to further
depress business, unless it be taken for
granted that manufacturers and their en-
ployes will be unable to agree, a calamity
which 1t is to be hoped is not in store for
the country. Where both sides are rea'
sonable on question Of deep interest to
each, 1t is always possible to arrive at fair
conclusions.
