took the yarn about being kept out late

and papa said 1T just worked like a

the Liver Lotion on three times, and

A California Tree,


Menteur and myself were walking

out Of his mouth, and TRANQUILITY re.

And in a few moments | found outwhv.
The sound Of chopping and the swish
OF the saw suddenly ceased, and long,
mournfu cry rang through the woods.
1t was the warning note Of the woodman.
The top Of tall tree some distance
ahead of US began to tremble slightly.
There was an awful prolonged groan-
such groan as might come from the
hairy breast Of the imprisoned giant be.
meath Mount Etna. Then came sharp
crack as the mighty tree-trunk snap.
ped The tall monster slowly and ma
jestically moved toward the earth. There
was terrible crash as il smote the
branches from its fellow shifting
them as clearly rs with cimeter.
There was roar as Of thunder when it
struck the ground; the earth trembed
for rods around. as if an earthquake
shock was upon Us; cloud of dust rose
up, and when it cleared away the i'm
passive woodmen were stripping the
fallen giant of his limbs,
lnasmuch as the tree fell upon the
exact spot we had occupied moment
before, we understood and appreciated
the remark of the laconic woodman.
We watched the woodmen prepare an
immense log, about twelve feet in d.
ameter. They drove in the staple, and
then hitched to it twenty oxen-tenyoke.
The goad-bearer punched his animals,
swore at them in "a pleasant and per-
suasive voice, and then started. The
mammoth log groaned slightly, turned
reluctantly, and moved forward an inch
or two.
Ping! Whir-r-r-r!
The iron ring had snapped in twain.
Its two fragments flew two different
ways-one passing between the interest
ed heads of Mentegr and myself II it
had struck us we would have lost all in
terest in logs and other mundane things.
Not having struck us, maintained my
interest. looked with much curiosity
to see what had become of the twenty
oxen. l expected to see them out OF
sight, rs an Irishman might say, by
reason Of the sudden slackening of the
immense tension
They were not out of sight, but they
were the most miscellaneous, most CON
fused, and most disguised oxen ever
saw in my life. They were engaged in
turning twenty distinct, complicated,
and rapid somersets.
Menteur, in telling this story, invari-
bly, ends it by saying that each OK lit on
his feet. But then Menteur is not mark

The Hearts Work.

As with each stroke the heart pro-
jects something like six ounces of blood
into the conduits of the system, and as
il does so some seventy times every
minute and 1920 times in an hour, this
implies that it does the same thing l0O.-
800 times in twenty-four hours, 10000
600 times in year, and more than
$500, 900, 900 times in life of seventy
years. The mechanical force that is
exerted at each stroke amounts to o
pressure of thirteen pounds upon the
entire charge of blood that has to be
pressed onward through the branching
network of vessels. According to the
lowest estimate that has been made,
this gives an exertion of force that
would be adequate, in another form of
application, TO lift l20 tons one foot
high every twenty-four hours. Yet the
piece of living mechanism that is called
upon to do this, and to do it without
pause for three score years and ten
without being itself worn out by the
eiirt, is small bundle of flesh that
rarely weighs more than eleven ounces.
1t is in the nature of the case, also, it
must be remembered, that this little
vital machine cannot be at any time
stopped for repair. If it gets out of or
der, it must be set right as it runs. To
stop the beating of the heart for more
than the briefest interval would be to
change life into death, The narrative
of what medical science has done to
penetrate into the secrets of this deli
cate force pump so jealousy guarded
from the intrusions of the eye that il
cannot even be looked into until its ac-
ton has ceased, is, nevertheless, a long
history of wonders. BY means of the

In this age of hustle and hurry, an
age devoted TO great projects and en-
lerprises. the American people are
taking the lead in the furlherance Of
noble works, and in the advancement
of the sciences and arts. In these they
deserve to lake a high rank, aud
through the united works Of millions.
the American continent is fast being
transformed from lis uutamed state and
being placed on an equality with the
older continents beyond the ocean.
The American people are fast uLder
these influences. developing into a
nervous, energetic race, remarkable for
its vim and business qualifications; yel
there is danger That 10 the course OF
Years these very elements may COM
bine TO the ruination Of The physical
character of the people, and leave
them lecDlc anu dilOSctbCt NihSlSu'
frJm their foretalhers. General de-
bility is now much more common than
formerly, and seems TO be on the in-
crease among the masses. Many
remedies have been extensively adver-
tlsed for this wide spread complaint.
but none of tLese have been so sue
cesslul or met with such general favors
as the remedy. Mr. S. 5. GOudy, OF
Massilon, Stark county, Ohio, writes
that he had been troubled With general
debility and dyspepsia for several
years; that he was induced to Try
PERUSA for his complaints, AID that
after using three bottles OF the medicine
he was greatly relieved. 1t braced
him right up aud gave him energy and
res tored him to his youthful vigor.
He ascribes his cure to PERUNA, aud
says it is a wonderful remedy.

riot the town was completely under
control of the sergeant and his police
force, and that no furlher disturbance
Of the peace and good order except
shooting of the special policeman, as
stated above, occurred, and that such
peace and good order continued TO pre-
vail up to and including the day Of elec-
ton; that on Sunday prominent citi.
zens prepared and caused 10 be printed
and circulated, and also on the day
preceding the election, circulars signed
by themselves and by the superinten-
dents Of both political parties, guaran-
teeing 10 each and every citizen, without
regard to color or party, the free and
undislurbed right of voting that no
violence, therats nor intimidation
whatever was shown towards the ne.
gro or Goa lition voters, but on the
contrary such voters were repeatedly
assured, by citizens, policemen and
military officers sent to Danyille by the
Governor of the State, that they would
be protected in their rights to vote as
they pleased; that the election day was
quiet and without any disturbance or
difficulty at any precinct or elsewhere
10 town, aud the election itself honest
ly conducted, and free and fair in all
respects, and that the negroes as a
body refrained from voting under the
advice and command of their party
leaders. while Others voted the coall-
ton ticket without hindrauce from any
quarter.
Your committee has thus confined
itself to the investigation Of facts and
the preparation Of the statement re-
quired, and herewith submit the evil
dence as a full and complete vindication
of our town aud people from the gross
misstatements which have been circ
culated through a portion Of the press
