Vigorously and Truly Stated.

JItUtItINU ItuUtT'
Compared with the balance of the country the
south constitutes but a feeble mai ority. In the
combined matters OF commerce, manufactures,
agriculture and national wealth, 1t is but an in
significant factor, and yet, with all its old time
impudence and arrogance, 1t assumes once more
to dictale the entire national policy.

FoRD'S--"HIXs FIX"
This evening Mestayer & Barton will
present their new musical absurdity, ''Hix's
Fix" The story relates the adventures Of q
company of actors previous to organization as
we'll as their struggles on the road. It is
filled with many comicalities and burlesques,
and the company is especially well cast for
tho purposes of tho play. There are
many local favorites among its members
who will be gladly received by their
old admirers. The play has been we'll spoken
of in other places, and it will no doubt have a
a successful run at Ford's, Tho cast is well
selected and the actors we'll known.

HOW DOES HE KNOW =
A Tw" Legged subject in the Hands
of an Editor.

We know so little of pantalets, SAYS
the innocent editor of the New York
Graphic, as to be really no authority in
the premises. 1t has always struck us,
however, that pantalets were the most
absurd of all articles of human address.
Your pantalet, if we are correctly inform.
ed, is fastened at the knee in some way.
possibly with mucilage. 1t is cylindrical
with perpendicular tendencies, and so
large as to be absolutely no protection to
the limb it is supposed to surround. 1t
is starched, and the embroidery MT its
base is as stiff and undemonstrative us if
each particular thread of it were a sub
stance all alone by itself. The human
limb designated for pedestrianism has a
gradually inward curve from a certain
point below the garter to the ankle, and
the ankle is small; but your panties take
no notice of that. 1t is unsymphathetic.
1t disregards all rules as to dra-
perry. 1t is like a section of
s~tovepipe that has inadvertently got away
from its companions and is i'll n continual
state of wonder us to what has happened
to solidify that smoke. The striped
stocking that should amelioratc its won
derment and Imagination does nothing of
the kind; it simply wants to employ the
uncombative foot below it rs u means to
kick somebody, and it would choke itself
to death with the %circlct above it if it
had Il throat to choke. When people
talk of the clumsiness of skirts they
mean rather the clumsiness begotten of
the pantalct. Take every skirt away
from that a|bomination and the woman
possessing it would still be clumsy. If
she wanted to kick forward she would
kick backward. Indeed, the fact that
the woman cannot play ball, invariably
hitting the wrong man with the sphere
whenever she doesn't happen to pitch
her own eyes out, is due wholly, we ere
convinced, to the deleterious effects of
the awkward and unwholesome pantalet,
whose influence seems to have pcrmeat-
ed her entire being.

WE SHOULD HELP ONE ANOTHER.

Mr.. NORMAN Hunt, of No. 100 Chestnut street,
Springfield, Mass, writes April 10, 1883, saying:
"Haying the affection caused by kidney and liver
diseases, and after enduring the aches, pains, weak.
ness and depression incident thereto until body and
soul were nearly distracted, l sought for relief and n
cure for my trouble, and was told by a friend who
had been cured by it himself, that the best and only
sure cure was Hunts Remedy, and upon his recon-
mendation | commenced taking it, and the first few
doses improved my condition in n very marked man
ner, and n continuance of its use has justified all
that my friends claimed for it that it was a sure
and permanent cure for all diseases of the kidneys
and liver. Several Of my friends in Springfield hay
used it with the most gratifying results, and 1 feel it
my duty as well AZ u pleasure to me to recommend
Hunts Remedy in the highest possible terms"

We are aware that We are combating q prevailing
prejudice Ut the profession and people when we assert
that we can and do cure diseases OF the blood with q
vegetable remedy! We ourselves were not easily
convinced. But does 1t make anything less q fact
simply because you do not believe II?
Turn to history and read the accounts OF the dis
coyery and application Of steam, railroads, electrici-
ty, etc. We're not those who preached that IL was
possible to accomplish such grand results, as we SEQ
realized to-day, pronounced crazy And did not sci
entists say: ''IMrossiRLE." We do not ask that YOU
accept our wordl We bring corroborating testimony.
In short we demonstrate by living, reliable witnesses
that every word we say IL true.
Ask yourself the question, could men occupying
the political, social and financial position these men
do, afford to endorse those engaged In n work OF de-
ception and Of fraudY Now let them speak.
Every word We say In regard to our remedy Is
true, and the certificates we publish are from men Of
undoubted Nerucity.
