CLEVELAND, O-The Plain Dealer publishes
the following:
popular method of ascertaining the
opinions of those whose opinions are valuable
by reason of their prominence in the COM
munity in which they live, is the newspaper
interview. The reporter understands this,
and plies his questions whenever political
policy and moral ethics, public measures or
improvements, or even a startling catastro-
phe may afford him the opportunity. Mat
tiers which in themselves are public benefits
afford good subjects for the interviewer, as
where many are benefited there must neces-
sarily be considerable public comment In
order to ascertain the general sentiment of
thls,community in reference to. an. article
which may be truly classed among public
benefactions, representative of the Plain
Dealer propounded the following question to

fir ON this district:

to her, and she. concluded to use it, until she
had consumed about three bottles, when, to
dol -hf .ei.
her a perfect cure, which she would have al
most deemed a miricie one month before"
