THE GREAT REMEDY
FOR ALL
DISEASES OF THE BLADDER
AND KIDNEYS.

This Remedy has stood the test of time, haD
been weighed in the scales of public opinion,
and to-day has an army of men, women and
children, who over their own signatures bear
testimony to its curative properties. Some
have been cured of Diabetes some of Bright's
Disease, some of Inflammation of the Bladder.
some of Catarrh of the Bladder, some of Incon-
Thence of the Urine, some of Leucorrhea, or
Whites, some of pains in the Back and Loins,
some of diseases of the Prostate Gland.
For all Diseases arising
from a diseased state of the
Bladder and Kidneys, this
Remedy stands without a
Rival.
Without a rival in the number of cures
effected without rival in the purity of its
composition; without rival in number of
bottles sold. The annual sale of Smiths Ex.
tract of May Flower exceeds the sales of all
other Kidney Remedies combined.
DR.. ELI IVES, says: THAT in many aggra-
waited cases, when Buchu had failed to produce
any benefit, May Flower has effected speedy
cure
DR. J. II. BIRD, says: IL have found May
Flower to be a remedy for all Kidney COM
plants, far superior to Buchu or Juniper"
DR. H.. F. MARTIN, says: May Flower acts
more promptly in ali diseases of the Bladder
and Kidneys than any remedy which has come
under my notice"
DR. BENZ II. LONG, says: al have found
May Flower exceedingly beneficial in my treat
ment of females"
DR. VINO. D. HUYVETTER, says: without
doubt May Flower is destined to work a revo-
luton in the treatment of diseases peculiar to
the urinary organs"
DR.. KING, in compiling his dispensatory,
has paid merited tribute to this remedy. See
page 1896 Kings Dispensatory.
A number of authorities might be quoted, but
there are none more eminent than the names
above. In addition to these authorities, ltv-
ing host of 6O,OOO whose certificates are on file

A Clean Administration.

Washington Corresp ondence New York Herald.
Mr.. Arthur has made a clean and business
like administration; he has not crowded the
offices with his favorites; he has not shown
resentment toward his opponents; he is on
good terms with both parties in Congress, as
the chief executive ought to be; he advises
freely with the best and most experienced
men of his party and has their confidence
and esteem; in an entirely unobtrusive way
he has done more for a re-
form of the civil service by
his own. attitude toward office seekers and
Office seeking than many of his professors
taken together. 1t is no slight gain toward
decency, at any rate, that the White House
no longer welcomes and encourages 'delega-
ions of the ofiice-seeking tribe, and that
the chief executive no longer regards the
dealing with intrigues for place as the chief
of his employments and duties, as has too
often been the case under previous admins
t~rations.

In the Hands of Its Friends.

Washington Correspondence New York Herald.
The plain meaning of these (the civil SER
vice commissioners nominations is that the
President puts the execution of the new law
into the hands of its friends, with the strong
desire that they shall make it successful.
1t is well known that he approves of the law,
and it will be found that, in important
nominations hereafter to be made, he will
conform to the spirit of it and give that aid
and cou%ntenance to the labors of the com
missioners which will help them to its sue
cessful administration. He has the deter
mination to do all in his power to separate
the business of the government from more
partisan politics. Although he makes fewer
professions than some Of his predecessors it is
we'll known here that no President for many
years has so constantly discouraged mere Of

predecessors so carefully administered the
government on business principles. dealing
with the subordinate places to be filed from

Ice Gorge at Alton Goes Out.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. pa special to the Post

gorge here moved about IL o'clock, carrying
away about one-half OF a box factory on the
river bank, submerging the building and
running the machinery. Loss, S., 900 to So

The gorge reached here between"3 and 4

Dor without doing any serious damage.
The lumber yards in the northern part of the
city were rubbed sharply, and some section

stand on the river bank was also scraped
roughly, and the coal dump of the Belt rail

INGERsoLL's PLAGIARISM.


London Letter.
The Rev. Mr.. Haweis, who recently wrote
a BOOK on American humorists, that has
been rather severely criticised by the Eng
Ilsh press is a very popular London preacher.
lie has Just begun to give Sunday evening
discourses for the people, and on these occa-
sions he lectures on some subject about
which there is not much general knowledge,
and he mage to make these lectures so in
teresting that ii is rather difficult to get a
place at st. James Marylebone to hear him.
One of the first discourses was on Chinese
religion. Most people might think
that that subject could be got over
after the manner OF the celebrated treatise on
snakes IN Ireland, as the Chinaman as seen
in the United States show very few traces of
religion OF any sort. However, it seems that
he has a very good religion at home which,
like himself abroad, will wash. A great part
OF the lecture of Mr.. Haweis was taken up by
the Life of Confucius," and although the
reverend gentleman did not claim that Bob
Ingersoll copied some of his favorite ideas
from Kim, yet to a person who had heard
Bob and then listened to the remarks of
Confucius the resemblance was striking.
We all know Confucius so we'll that it is
impossible to believe that he is the plagiarist,
and on the other hand we all know Inger-
soil so well that it is impossible not to be-
Heve that he had taken advantage of Con-
fucius being dead for some little time, expect
ing that we would have forgotten now he used
to talk. Confucius died AIS years before
Christ. His great hold was that he was seek
ing after truth. This is what Bob pretends
to be after, except, of course, in the star
route prosecutions. Confucius would never
hazard any opinions about tine next world,
To all inquiries on that subject he would
simply answer, Il don't know" This is
Roberts ~favorite phrase. The heather

humanity and moral courage. These are also
Ingersolls themes. When Confucius was
urged to pray he refused, saying that his life
was a constant prayer. He also said when
asked to prepare for another world that the
present world required all his attention dur
ing this life. Of course the apostle Robert is
not to be blamed for following such a wise
mans precepts, but, as the papers say about
their funny items, he ought to give credit to
tie humorist lie took the paragraph from.

Travellers Whose Early Death Would Be a
Blessing-"Tips' and Railroads.
From Lecture by Chauncey M. Depew.
The voyager who stri yes to convey an idea
of his own importance by speaking lightly of
a trip across the ocean in this way: Going
to Europe? o yes; that's only crossing a
ferry" is one among those whose early death
would be a blessing to their friends and ac-
quaintances. In the same class are the peo-
pie who try to belittle everything you may
have seen abroad and praise to the skies some
trivial object that you missed; those who
walk about the ships deck and shout that
they want five meals a day when you
don't have any use for one; and those,
also, who boast about sleeping all night,
when you feel like the eminent divine
who thought on the first day out that
he should die, and in less than twenty-four
hours was afraid that he wouldn't die. The
first sight of the Irish coast, and later the APP
proach to Liverpool harbor, surprise the
traveller by their resemblance to the coast of
his own country. and to the harbor of New
York. When he lands, however, the hotels,
the railroads, and above all the ''tips," soon
undeceive him. In comfort, ~accommoda-
dation and ~cheapness our railroads far sur
pass those of England. The first-class fare
is twice as much, the second is half again as
much, and the third is about the same as the
fare on the New York Central road. The
first-class apartments are upholstered in vel
vet and plush, the second in cloth,
and the third in the best of boards.
In Germany the trains run twenty
eight miles and hour, and stop every
thirty minutes for refreshments. Then there
are the tips. Why, Europeans of all classes
seem to think that Americans ooze shillings
and crowns, and forms at every pore. A SUI
perintendent of a railway in Germany once
expected me to give him a shilling for hand
ing a dispatch 10 a telegraph operator. At
the hotels everybody, from boots to the
proprietor, stands waiting in the most re-
ceptive attitude that he can assume when
you or l appear. 1 couldn't find where ex-
pectation stopped anywhere between the
constable and the cabinet. The further you
travel abroad and the more you see, the more
your true Americanism increases, and you
realize that, taken as a whole, for all the
ends which make life worth living for our
selves and for hope for our children, there is
no land like our own. [Applause.l

A POTATO SUBSCRIPTION.
Evansvi1le's Relief Committee-Seyen Bar

EvansviIle's Relief Committee-Seven Bar
rels of Potatoes Collected, and the Re-
turns Not Complete.
Evansville Courier, Yesterday.
The suggestion made in the Courier of yes
terday, tat each scholar should bring at
least one potato, for the purpose OF seeing
how much a single vegetable of Irish extrac-
ton would swell the fund, has borne fruit.
The Courier is not prepared to state Just
what the collection will amount 10. but it
will surprise those who have never given
such a mode of gathering a thought. An
other excellent feature of the plan is that
every lad that brought a potato went for
the biggest and best that he could find in
the home pile. Some idea as to what the
result will be may be taken from the fact
that when Professor Cooper t~elephoned to
the different buildings yesterday that each
scholar should bring his Murphy the re-
suit at the Fulton avenue building was a
collection of seven barrels, and the returns
not yet all in. There was a wagon load COL
lected at the Columbus street building, be-
sides other articles that will prove of benefit
to the sufferers. Professor Cooper last night
informed a Courier svphon that it would
be another twenty-four hours before
the actual amount of the subscriptions could
be known. 1t has been left to the public
schools to start the relief fund, and it is to
be hoped that, now it is started, no parent
or patron of them will think that he has
done his duty by allowing his child to take a
potato from the family marketing. There is
but little needed for our own people, but
there are others, and our near ~neighbors,
who have been great sufferers, and a division
