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

81 wish to gracious some people would learn when
they need doctor and when they DON'T exclaimed
Doctor E., he entered his house in a cosy little
village in the interior OF the State of New York,
after tedious night ride of many miles. 81 have
been down among the mountaias to see man, who
the messenger said, very sick and not likely to
live till morning, unless he had immediate help;
and found him suffering from rather sharp attack
of collie, which his family might have relieved in ten
minutes, if they had grain of sense aud two c.
three simple remedies in the house. But no. thew
must remain ignorant as pigs, and when the leas.
ache or pain takes them send for doctor, whether
they ever pay him CT not'
''Why, Doctor, what kind of simple remedies as
you call them do you expect people to keep in the
house?" asked his wife, as she poured him cup of
hot tea
SIN this case, answered the Doctor, aif they had
only put BENsoN's CAPCINE POROUS PLAs-
TER on the mans STOMACH, he would have been all
right in an hour, and saved me 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 extraction
or by union Of the two processes. Bensons Plas-
promotes both. It incites the torpid organs to
act, and sends its healing, soothing influence
through the myriad pores of the skim 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, do you think? Buy
the CAPCINE and keep it in the h3use. Price 25

Cengressmen,s Characteristics

The habits and manners of Congressman
are always interesting to the public. Sena-
tor Anthony, wrapped in a garment, half
coat and half cloak, can be daily seen saun-
tering on the avenue to and from the Capt.
tol, with a cigarette securely fastened be-
tween his teeth. "The father of the Sen
ate," as he is called, seems to be as fond of
this form of the weed as the average young
American, and he is becoming as famous
for his cigarette as Gen: Grant for his cigar.
Another sight of daily occurrence on the
avenue is that presented by Gentleman
George Pendeton of Ohio, and the Cheva=
lier Bayard of Delaware. These two are in
separable, and, after the close of the session
and during the winter, walk together to and
from home. AS the season advances, these
two Senators can be seen ensconsed in
basket phaeton, drawn by two handsome
black horses, the turnout being the property
of the Ohio statesman Many persons have
remarked the tidy appearance of these two
legislators, for, no matter how fatiguing ths
labora of the day have been, both are fauIt.

The English Channel tunnel project 10
one of those schemes that will not down.
An appeal will be made to Parliament this
winter for permission to go on with this en-
terprise. The company offer to bring the
mouth of the great work three miles inland
if that will decrease the fear of invasion.
No doubt of the physical possibility of cut
ting the passage under the sea seems to ex-
ist, and rival corporation to the original
one proposes to 60 to work as soon as it can
gain the assent of the authorities. Destiny
points to the completion of the tunnel.
English fear and prejudice must give way
before the steady pressure of manifest fate.
In fact, the situation is trife too ridicu-
lous to be agreeable. The practical demon
stration of the fear of the Frenchman, which
refusal to allow the project to go on In
wolves, can not but be wearing on English
pride, and the time will come when the scare
will be regarded as great joke on the pres
ent generation.

lessly attired whenever they take the custo-
mary promenade. Vice President David
Davis, although very unwieldy, nevertheless
enjoys his daily walk from the National
Hotel, where he has resided ever since he
first came to Washington, to the Capitol,
and as he plods along he is always ready
with smile for his regular acquaintances,
who time themselves by him every morning.
1t is usually about 10 o'clock when the rep
resentative Of the Independent party in the
Senate sallles forth, and, no matter what
the weather may be, he will not vary from
his custom. He is also fond of smoking
and buggy riding, and has for his own use a
vehicle similar to that used by doctors, in
which he makes long journeys into the
country around Washington when an op-
portunity permits. Senator Call of Florida
has an interesting family which, in pleasant
weather, he gives an airing on the avenue
in phaeion drawn by highs stepping ami
NAL. He, too, is fond of pedestrianism,
and is a conspicuous object in the thron g
which daily surges up and down the avenue.
Senator Malone is rather exclusive, and has
landeau in which he rides to his business.
A cigar has become necessary adjunct to
his comfort, and the picture which he pre-
-sents, arrayed in peg-top pantaloons, bell
shaped frOck coat. and unstarched collar
and cuffs turned down over his neck and
wrists, is striking one. Whenever his
name is called in the Senate the spectators
in the galleries stretch their necks to get a
glimpse of the Readjuster Senator. Not a
few visitors to the Capitol have been heard
to express their disappointment at his size
and general appearance. Senator Edmunds
grows daily more like the portraits given of
st. Jerome, and his tall form towers consid-
erably above the average promenader. He
has been missed of late from the avenue.
having discontinued his walks i'll the inter-
est of the street cars. A strong friendship
exists between Mr.. Edmunds and Senator
Garland of Arkansas, although their politi-
cal ideas are so different, and it is noticed
that the Vermont Senator will not pair with
anyone except his friend from Arkansas,
This khas been imputed to the fact that
both are recognized as leading lawyers
hence their bond of friendship.

THE filling of the Catholic see of Warsaw,
which has been vacant for SO many years,
marks the termination of that long and Bit
ter struggle between the Russian govern
ment and the Roman church which was one
Of the many deplorable consequences of the
partition of Poland. The Polish Catholics,
who had from the first suffered the oppres
sion which is SO often the lot of those whose
religion is opposed to that of the authorities
above them, were, under the Gortschakoff
regime, prosecuted with the most rigorous
cruelty, and this arrangement of basis
upon which they will be allowed the free
practice and full benefit of their religion is a
great triumph of Papal diplomacy. Thus
far the pontiicate of the astute and broad
minded man who now fills the chair of ST.
Peter has been conspicuous success.
The Portland daily press., 1883-02-21

TIE Indiana Legislature has appointed
committee to inquire into the expediency OF
providing the Governor with house at In
dianapolis in addition to his salary. In the
White House at Washington there is per-
manent suggestion of such perquisite, and
several States, among them Missouri and
New York, give the Governor residence
at the capital. The practice, however, is
not to be commended. If the Governors
cash salary in any instance is not large
enough for him to support the dignity of the
Office, it ought to be raised. The subject
has often been discussed, and usually set
tied against the Executive Mansion. The
Indianapolis News advises the committee to
report that "the Governor is furnished with
an Office to attendlto the duties which he
has contracted to perform, and beyond that
It is his own affair solely where or how he
hves, what he eats and wherewithal he is
clothed" SO that the Executive Mansion

ENGLAND will probably learn without
much pleasure that the Russian Ambassa-

taken for granted that they are by no means

in front of the crown, and ends of the rib
bon are passed through the ripped space
the effect is odd and striking. Similar
trimmings are made with flowers aud feath-
ers, and are commended for round faces.
The full ruche of flowers around the brim
will be more becoming to slender oval faces.
The strawberry red ribbons are much used
to tie on punches of yellow flowers, and
duller red with the dark stem-of- pink green

in Paris paper that he desires to marry a
