The hostility OF Mr.. Buckner to the pro.
position to take oil the one per cent. tax
on national bank circulation, and to issue
notes to the amount Of ninety per cent. OF
the par value Of the bonds deposited to 60.

feet upon the new members. Mr.. Buck
her will be able to delay legislation even
though q majority Of his committee should
be opposed to him, and it will probably
be late in the session before these matters
will get into the House from the commit
tee for discussion. r -
There is one healthy sign which may
have an important bearing upon the ques.
ton, and lead to complete change in the
programme laid down by Messrs Buckner

manifested by Speaker Carlisle over the
criticisms Of the press throughout the

ITS CAUSE AND CURE.
BY AN ENGLISH PHYSICIAN;

This painful malady was formerly
considered to be entirely the result
of age, cold or exposure, but medical
science has now demonstrated that
it is disease in the blood, which
may be inherited in so dangerous a
form as to cause death in youth or
middle age, and even in infancy.
That the enemy courses through the
veins, mixed in life fluid, in a LIQUID
form for certain length of time:
that it gradually, through a variety
Of causes, becomes partially sondi-
fed into a sort of clayey substance
This accommodating in the joints of
the fingers. toes and limbs, becomes
an obstruction to the circulation, and
In time stiffens the joints, causing
IN many instances great pain and
suffering. 1t also materially affects
the healthy action of the vital Or
gans, interfering with the heart. the
stomach and the kidneys. q rem
edV such as that known as Britannia
is the best that can be taken to re-
move the disease, and to give the
proper tone to all parts of the sys-
tenn. No external application can
remove rheumatism, Patients who
use various oils, lotions and lini-
ments, are dying every day from
this disease. But no one has vet
died of rheumatism to my know
ledge who used Britannia, even
when the disease was so far adyan-
ced as to cause complete prostra-
ton. This valuable family medi-
cine can De be obtained at lions

years of existence may be fittingly
noticed here. In those towns where a.
mo" vote has been obtained, as Water
town and Somerville, it is making vfg-
orous efforts to Danish liquor from the
town. No less than six indictments
were found against notorious rum
seller in Watertown through the efforts
of the League. The Cambridge branch
League, which was formed but two
months ago, has recently secured the
conviction of six dealers. The town of
Marlboro had sixty liquor saloons year
and a half ago. Now no one dares to
advertise that he sells liquor.
In all of the nearly sixty towns in
which branch leagues have been organ
lied, convictions for Illicit selling have
been doubled and tripled. These con-
victions are not spasmodic, but part
OF well-detined policy to make liquor
selling, contrary to law, disgraceful,
expensive and dangerous. We trust
the work will go on until all of the
three-hundred and forty-seven towns in
the State see their good citizens bound
together with common purpose of
enforcing law and establishing order.

The Business Of Bill Posting.

An English stage manager. in q
pamphleU on advertising, written about
1850, asserted that the business OF
poster advertising, even then supposed
to have outgrown all reasonable pro-
portions, was yet but in its infancy; that
the time would come when every inch
of blank surface in this mundane sphere
would be devoted to the purpose of
advertising, Curiously enough, about
the time this prophecy was made a
scheme was inaugurated by a single
individual on this side of the water
which was destined to 60 a long way
toward its fultillment. In the winter
of 1880 young sign painter of
Brooklyn, finding his business very
dull, amused himself by going along
the Harlem Road and painting his
name. occupation and business on all
the rocks and fences. Several business
men were struck with the idea and. en-
ployed the young man to blazon adver-
tiSements for them in various localities.
Soon after, securing large number of
contracts for the work, he travelled with
his brush and paint up the Missouri
River, exercising his peculiar talents on
the bare crags of the Rocky Mountains.
He journeyed into Oregon and daubed
her pyramids, down the golden valleys
of the Sac, over the granite cliffs of the
Humboldt range he went, leaving be-
hind him staring legends of "liver pills, )"
"ague pads" etc, to terrify the wan
dering savage and buffalo. We are
happy to say he was shot at several
times and had to run to save his
wretched hide. He was pursued soon
after by rival as fearless and unscru-
pulous as himself. Finally, the two
went into partnership and between them
transformed the country into vast bill
board. They established their head
quarters in New York and undertook,
at specified rates, to advertise mer-
chants, medicines, ETC.. in as few or
many States as desired. In 1880 the
manager of this business the quondam
Brooklyn sign-painter, now q million
aire declared that he and his partner
had travelled 100000 miles, had
painted 10000 signs, and used 500
barrels of linseed oil and $50 tons of
white lead. This was before they two
retired from active participation in the
manual part of the business. They now
have this work done by their 1900
agents, through whom they can work
the whole United States on the bill
board plan. They charge for billing a
patent medicine in seventeen States

The Work of the Law and Order
League.

No Temperance movement has ever
gained such hearty sympathy from all
good citizens as the Law and Order
movement Having for its aim not the
propagation of any peculiar Temper
ance views, but simply the enforcement
of law, it appeals to the Judgment and
conscience OF all men who believe that
regard for law lies at the basis of social
order. 1t finds sympathy with all save
the extreme Prohibtionists, who be-
lieve that all license law is a sin and
ought not to be upheld. While we be-
lieve a Prohibitory law to be the only
rational method of restraining the liz,
uOr traffic, good reasons exist to urge
the strict enforcement of a License law
when it is on the statute books. The
general reason that law should be re-
spected may be passed over for the con-
sideration of the special reasons for the
expediency OF compelling liquor dealers
to regard the law.
In the first place, the Law and Order
movement practically unites all good
citizens against the liquor traffic. 1t is
a well-known fact that on the question
of license or no license the votes of
many of the most intelligent and up
right men are cast on the side of the liq-
uor interest. When the question of
maintaining the law is brought to them
their vote is found on the side of Law
land Order, the side of Temperance.
The result is that instead of having two
parties arrayed against each other the
License and the Prohibitory, each con-
tanning good citizens, we have two new
parties with a sharply-drawn line he
tween them. On one side the law abid-
ing, ON the other the lawless. The liq-
quor interest is thus plainly shown to
be what it really is, the lawless element
in society,
Furthermore, so far as License law is
enforced, so far it is prohibition. Only
the prohibitory clauses in License law
are the effective clauses. The enforce
ment of the Sunday law prohibits for
one day out of seven. The enforce
ment of the Night law prohibits for six
hours out of the twenty-four. The en-
forcement of the law regarding minors
prohibits the sale to all under twenty
one years of age.

League has accomplished in its two
