THE DEMOCRATIC NORTHWEST THURSDAY OCTOBER Is 1888

The Duke of York, when heir ap-

of this reign, resolved to build a pal

Before it was finished he died ire

Here lived and ruled for couple of
hundred years the Spanish Captain

were practically irresponsible either to
the viceroy or the people of the Ter

How Watch Cases are Made.

This process ofmanufacture was invented
by James Boss, who started in business in
1854, and the methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. This is the only uatch case made
under this process. For many years the in
PRODUCTION of these goods was slow, owing
topopular prejudice against plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that the
James Boss Gold Watch Case was not q
cheap gold-washed or electro-plated article,
but was made of genuine gold plates of
standard quality and thickness. Conscientious
adherence to the determination to make
the best watch case ever put on the market,
and the adoption of every improvement
suggested, has made the James Boss Gold
Watch Case the STANDARD. .u.n, ~ u..x
In this watch case the parts q q
most subject to wear-the bow, crown, hinges,
tsumb-catches, ETC., are made of SOLID GOLD.

Postal Regulations.

One of the evils from which the
public suffer under Republican rule is
the idea that prevails almost univer-
sally among the official satraps of the
government that by some occult pro-
cess of transformation since the Repub.
licans came into po xer, the officials are
relieved of the responsibilities that u.s.
ually attach to servants of the people,
and that the people who sustain and
really compose the government are the
menials Of those who have been so for
tunate as to have their names entered
upon the government blue Book. -
While this feeling largely permeates
the entire public service, it predomi-
mates most and is most Extensively
prominent in the Post Office Depart
ment. At the head of the Department
in Washington the feeling is every
day made manifest that the convent
ence of the public are matters not to
be considered, and rules are promul-
gated, modified and abrogated as fire.
quently and causelessly as the childish
laws of the juvenile play ground. No
attempt is ever made to notify the pub
lie of these changes, but they are made
to suffer none the less. For instance,
we notice by an exchange that under
the newest postal regulations letters
that weigh more then half an ounce
will not be forwarded to .heir desti
nation, but will be held for postage.
If anything on the outside Of the let
ter indicates the name of the writer,
the postmaster will notify him. If
not, it is the duty to notify the one to
whom it is addressed, and that person
will be required to send the additional
postage before the letter will be for
warded. Nothing so brilliant as that
could have emanated from a source
other than the fertile brain of Mr..
Hatton, the gentleman who suddenly
found himself transplanted from the
wilds OF Iowa to position of power
under the government. Heretofore
it has been deemed sufficient to stamp
the insufficientlv paid letter with the
amount due and forward it. Hatton
has discovered that this old-time az
rangement was too convenient for the
public, and at once he introduces
new regulation, without giving the
people information, by which letter
writer's are subjected to frequent an
noyance and delay and occasional loss.
Another instance is found in an or
der recently issued. The great and
only Hatton has found that some peo-
pie have been careless in placing a
stamp upon newspaper, and that
sometimes the stamp is so affixed as to
extend from the wrapper onto the mar
gin of the paper inclosed. Here was
an opportunity for the young man
from Iowa to display his importance,
and he al once issued an order that all
such newspapers or other packages
should be sent to the Dead Letter Of
fee as unavailable matter. Why, he
does not deign to state, but we are left
to presume that, under the regulations
of the Department each package must
be in condition to be opened and ex-
amined to determine whether some
patron of the mails in weak three
cent imitation of the leaders of the
grand old party had turned theft.

He had a small fortune when he first

A remedy that has proven itself a
never-failing cure for scroflla and all
syphilitic disorders must quickly cure
less terrible blood diseases. DR.. Guy
sott's Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla is
such perfect blood purifier and
strengthener of bodily functions, that it
cures the above the above diseases even
when Hot Springs and other treatment
has failed. Remember, it is absolutely
free from mineral poisons, and will not
injure the most delicate constitution.
Its use will make you feel buoyant,
strong and well, and will rid your sys-
tenn Of all blood impurities and every
internal and external indication of dis
ease, 2t

All weakness and i'll health owes its
origin to an impure state of the blood
and weakness of the urinary and di-
gestive organs. A medicine that will
strengthen these organs, and at the
same time purify the blood, will assist
nature in curing nearly every disease
that human flesh and blood is heir to-.
Such remedy is DR.. Guysott's Yellow
Dock and Sarsaparilla, and, although
it possesses no cathartic or diuretic eff
feet its use will soon establish regular
habit of body as we'll as cure weakness
of the kidneys, indicated by urinary
sediments, nervousness, etc. 1t

There is serious meaning in this ex-
preston. That wearied step, languid
eye, and general feeling of lassitude
come from sickness" Be assured, a
serious, and perhaps fatal, disease is
close in its wake. The system wants
cleansing of impurities; the sluggish
blood needs to be sent in swift and clear
currents through the veins. DIR. Ken

it will give new vigor to the body,
brightness to the eye, a glow to the
countenance, and elasticity to the step.

A CHILD KILLED BY FRIGHT.
4 Sad Scene at the Deathbed of
Little Girl.
GArkansas Gazette. |

[Arkansas Gazette.l
Few people seem to properly esti-
mate the great wrong of frightening
children. Nearly every household
has its "ugly old man" or its 'great
old bear" This terrible old man and
this great old bear are powerful fac.
tors in nursery discipline. "Come
along here now mother or nurse
will say to child "and let me put you
to Oed.' 81 don. want to 90 now
the child replies. YOU'D better come
on here now, or I'll tell the ugly old
man to come and take you away.
There he comes now" This has the
intended effect, and the child, tremb-
ling in fear, submits at once and goes
to bed, probably to see in Imagination
all kinds of horrible faces.
The sad death of little girl, which
occurred recently, shows what strong
impression those "boogers" make on
the minds of children. The little girl
was beautiful child, and every one
at the fashionable boarding house
where her parents were spending the
summer months loved her with that
purity of affection which a child so
gently, yet so strongly, inspires. She
would stand at the gate and clap her
little hands with glee when her father
came to dinner, and when he would
take her on his shoulder she would
shout and call to every one to look
how high she was. One day a large,
shaggy dog came into the yard, and
when she ran to him and held a flow
er to his nose, he growled and turned
away. She was terribly Frightened
and the black nurse, who stood near,
was slow IN making mental note OF
the impression the dog had made.
Several nights afterward, when bed
time came, the child was unusually
wakeful.
"Yer'd better come heah an git in
dis bed," the nurse commanded.
81 don't want to"
GAIL right den. Use gwine out and
call dat ole dog what growled at yer.
When he comes an fms yer outen de
bed he'll bite yer head off,
The little girl grew deathly pale.
"Nuthin' would suit dat dog better
dan ter git chance at yer. 'Tother
night he cotch little girl across de
road an eat her all up
The child screamed.
"Come on heah, den, an l won t
let him ketch yer"
The poor little thing obeyed. Her
father and mother were at an enter
talnment, and there was no appeal
from the negro womans decision.
When morning came the little girl
did not awake with her usual Good
mornin, papa and mama" She had
tossed all night, and hot fever had
settled. She grew rapidly worse, and
the next day the physician declared
that there was no hope for her. She
became delirious and struggling would
exclaim:
"Dog shan't have mammals little
girl"
1t was a sorrowing circle that sur.
rounded her death-bed. The parents
were plunged into grief which none
but the hearts of fathers and mothers
can feel.
Her last moments were a series of
struggles. How hard the beautiful
can die! She wildly threw up her lit.
tie hands and shrieked:
$50 away dog!'
"A gentle hand wiped the death frotn
from her lips.
Again she struggled and shrieked:
DOG shant have"-,but she died ere
the sentence was finished.

HOME COMFORT.
After a Rainy Ride a Country
Physician Tells What He
Thinks Of Some People.

81 wish to gracious some people would learn
when they need a doctor and when they DON'T"
exclaimed Doctor E, as he entered his mouse
IN a cosey little village IN the interior OF the
State of New York, after a tedious night ride Of
many miles. II have been down among the
mountains to see a man who, the messenger
said. was very sick ana not likely to live till
morning, unless he had Immediate help, and
found him suffering from a rather sharp attack
of collie, which his family might have relieved in
ten minutes, if they had a grain of sense and
two or three simple remedies in the house. But
no; they must remain ignorant as pigs, and
when the least ache or pain takes them, send for
a doctor. whether they ever pay him or not"
"Why, Doctor, what kind of simple remedies,
aa you call them, do you expect people to keep
In the house2" asked his wife, as she poured Elm
a cup of lot tea.
"In this case" answered the Doctor, elf they
had only put a BENSON'S Pei POROUS
PLASTER on the mans stomach, he wonld have
been all right in an hour, and saved me a dreary
ride"
In all ordinary complaints it cures at once.
All diseases are eliminated from the system by
what may be roughly called expulsion or extrac-
ton, or by a union of the two processes. Benz
sons Plaster promotes both. II incites the tor
pid organs to act, and sends its healing, soothing
influence through the myriad pores of the skin.
All other plasters oblige the patient to wait.
They give him hope FOR tomorrow. Benson's
plaster gives him help to-day. Which is better,

INDIANAPOLIS, May %.
The cheerful sun of a day or two past has made
trade more active in nearly all branches. Dry
goods men and hardware dealers speak of trade
as being good, and the grocers, who have been
complaining somewhat of late, report trade in
ereasinR. The only article showing any upward
tendency is corn syrup, the factory price having
advanced l9c per gallon, with indications of still
higher prices. Coffee is weak and stock large,
Sugars steady, and we're it not for a reduction
in the tariff of SO of cent per pound to take
effect on June l, we could with safety predict
higher figures. Rice and molasses quiet at quo
ravi0ns. Casued goods of all kinds very low,
prices are weak aud holders of large stocks anx-

business. Eggs are firm at quotations. Prices
on poultry tend lower. Receipts OF butter are
large anu prices weak. the provision trSde pre-
