MODERN MIRACLES.

MODERN MIRACLES.
The cures constantly being performed
by DR.. Gage are certainly without par
allel in the annals of medical science, one
remarkable cure scarcely being recorded
before others still more wonderful are re-
ported. Such results could never be at

knowledge-gift, we might ssy-which
enables him to more readily comprehend
the condition of the patient, aud thus be
in position to prescribe with far greater
accuracy. Treat his system of practice
as men may, it challenges investigation,
for its results are to be seen on every hand.
For example, the lady in Portsmouth, re-
Gently mentioned, who had been confined
to her bed three or four years, with COM
plication of diseases. She was unable to
visit the doctor, so her husband stated her
case to him and procured a course of med
icine. To the establishment of all she is
now able to walk around the house and is
gaining every day. Her neighbors insist
that it is little short of miraculous. This
is no more remarkable, however, than the
cure of the wife of Ira S. Appleton, Esq,
of Hillsborough Bridge, who had not been
able to walk across the floor unsided for
three years, yet was cured without seeing
the doctor; Miss Clara H. Bean, Fremont,
was cured of terrible scrofula in throat
and mouth and never saw the doctor until

COW stolen from his barn on Sunday night.
The Sheriff at once instituted search
and found the hide at Mr.. Lohe's butch

fine one and Mr.. Lobe paid quite price
for it. He described the man from whom
the purchase was made. A warrant was
secured and the sheriff went for his man
yesterday afternoon.
The man charged with the theft is
Charles Boldus comparatively young
man and long time resident of Two

The ordinary observer cannot fail to
have noticed that the saloon question is
receiving more than the usual attention
recently. Reference is not made to the
prosecution of Svacina for selling liquor
to minors, as that prosecution was in no
wise matter of principle, but an effort
to get even by person very properly
punished. The city board have had
matters brought before them, however,
which evinces degree of activity on the
part of persons DESTROYS of regulating the
liquor tariff, that will evidently lead to
something. The board readily laid on
the table the petition asking that the law
against keeping saloons open on Sunday
and selling liquor to minors, be enforced.
But resolution was presented asking
that an ordinance be passed fixing an
hour for closing saloons for the night
and to prevent the sale of liquor to mi
nors. 1t is hardly to be expected that
the present board will do anything in
the direction asked for by the resolution.
And still the failure to enforce the law
against the sale of liquor to minors,
throws the duty upon such persons as
prosecuted Svacina, thus making the law
a means of gratifying personal revenge,
instead of securing order and good con-
duct. Every failure to do what decency
and propriety demand, strengthens the
temperance element and places moderate
men in hostile attitude towards a bust
ness against which they have no feeling
if properly conducted.
There are few saloons in the city
which casts discredit upon all. Because
a few follow the practice of selling liquor
to minors, it does not follow that all do.
Nor is it fair to assume that the respect
able saloons want any such privilege, if
they choose to exercise it. The saloons
that do indulge in the practice should be
made to suffer by competent authority
and not leave the matter to every bum
mer who chooses to abuse the law for his
own purpose.
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1884-03-27
ALBERT IIANDRETH

The law against selling liquor to
minors has been invoked number of
times within the last month and for a
while it looked as if the local courts
would be kept busy imposing fines. The
suits were not brought through any
sentiment in favor of the enforcement of
the law. Parties who had squabbles
with saloon-keepers found they could
use the law as a means of gratifying
personal spite. While the fear of a fine
may deter saloonkeepers from selling
liquor to minols, still it is to be regretted
that fear did not come through the
assertion of healthy public sentiment
and not through personal animosity.

The month of May is generally cold
one in this latitude. North. east winds
prevail and they are freighted with the
chilliness of northern ice. 1t takes
warmth to thaw out the frozen north and
its cold winds are given us in exchange.
This north gives us pleasant weather in
the fall. The warmth that has accumu-
lated through the summer is then given
Oft and we revel In delightful climate.
The doctrine of compensation extends to
