letters Stomach Bitters. Thus will be prevented
the grievous, and sometimes disastrous, bodily
disturbance pervading the whole system, when
the offending organ is neglected or only half

senna and such like trash If you persist in do
ing SO, expect to suffer the consequence-chronic

punity, converted his gastric organ into drug
shop. The secretion of bile is promoted and cos
tiveness overcome by the Bitters without the pain
and weakening effects of q drenching purgative.
Its use is also fertile of decisive and speedy ben

HUNTERS in Sullivan County, New
York, say that deer have been SO sorely
pressed for fodder of late that now they
can be seen hanging around the out
skirts of small hamlets and villages.
NEARLY all the carpet-weaYers whose
wages have been reduced in 1000 Phil
adelphia looms are women and girls,
and, as they have no organization, n
strike is not feared. It was safe re-

A PATIENT at the Santa Cruz County,
California hospital coughed up three
live bots. His doctor says he never
heard Of a similar case. The bot is a
small worm that is found in the intes-

A LEADING New York dealer asserts
that drummer rarely lasts over half
dozen years, at the end of which time
he is generally worn out and must give
place to some beginner who will renew
the same experience.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Richmond,
(Va.) Dispatch few days ago saw a
group ef more than twenty men stand
ing accidentally together at Tazewell
court house, not one of whom was less
than six feet in height.
A NEW YORK dealer in hosiery says
that no true lady will wear pair of
stockings costing less than $3.50, and he
thinks the true gentleman should lay
down at least $75 per pair. Reckon
most of us must be mud-sills.
THERE are probably million stamp
collectors in the United States and
Canada, aud the number is increasing
every year. All the way from $4,000
to 100000 have been spent by wealthy
gentlemen in making the most perfect
collections.
The gavel with which the secretary
of state called the New York electors to
order is an historic one. The handle
was piece of mahogany from the
balustrade of the staircase in the old
capitol, and the hammer from piece of
oak out of which the furniture in the
court of appeals new room was made.
A NEW wrinkle was introduced at the

(From the Madison (Neh.) Chronicle.
The big corn story liar is abroad in
theland. One of our South Platte coun-
try exchanges gets off the following:
"The little son of Mr.. B, living west
of town, got ladder the other day and
stood it up against cornstalk. He
then took saw and climbing up about
twenty feet to the first ear, he proceed
ed to straddle the ear and saw it off,
bnt unfortunately he sawed between
himself and the stalk, and he was thrown
to the ground, breaking his arm"
That's the story. Now, then, somebody
hold our coat! We didn't intend men
tioning fact that has come to our knowl-
edge, but when South Platte prevar-
icator attempts to down this section on
the corn question, we will read him few
facts. Last Saturday, while in CONVEX
sation with Mr.. Ed. Jenkins, of Kala-
mazoo, the reporter learned that an IL
hcit distillery was in operation in one
of the ravines near his residence, and
the government was therefore being de-
frauded out of large amount of reve-
nue.. 1t appears that man arrived in
that neighborhood some time since, and
one night, with the aid of gang of la
borers, dynamite, crowbars, etc., sue
ceeded in prying off a kernel of corn
from big prize ear in Eds field. It
was then loaded onto stone boat and
hauled into ravine. The man then
bored into the kernel of corn with a
two-inch augur, put in a faucet, and
now has an unlimited supply OF pure
corn Juice on tap.

MEssRs. MASON & HAMLIN bid fair to be-
come as famous for their upright pianos as they
have long been for their world-renowned
cabinet organs. Having experimental several
years at great expense. and with the assistance
of probably as able q corps Of experts as can be
found in any factory i'll the world, they have
succeeded in producing a piano which has
elected the warmest encomiums from the best
judges. The distinguishing feature about it is
an important improvement in the method of
''stringing" the piano, which originated in their
own factory. The strings are secured by
metallic fastenings, instead of by the friction
of pins set in wood, as has been the case, and
the advantages resulting are numerous and
highly important; among them are the follow
ing: Wonderful beauty and musical quality
of tone, far less liability of getting out of tune,
greater reliability in trying climates, and greater
solidity of construction and durability. Mason
d Hamlin have made $50, 600 organs. They can
hardly expect to make as many pianos, but they
will doubtless be called upon to make very
large number.-[Boston Traveller.

Yesterday afternoon little Walt Whit
more came in from play, and, being
urged by his mother to run out again.
said that he didn't want to, because his
mate, the 4-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Edwards, couldn't play any more; that
he was in the water in the stone quarry
near by. Fearing the worst, Mrs. Whit
more ran over to Mrs. Edwards and
told her what she had heard. They
both went quickly to the quarry to find
the little boy lying dead under the cliff
in the edge of pool of water, with his
skull crushed. He had been dead for
some minutes already. The body was
picked up by the two ladies and car
ried home.

Put This in Your Pipe.
from the New York Grapbic.l

From the New York Graphic.l
The excessive use of tobacco causes
insanity, but seldom where the victim
would not become insane anyhow.
Poets are nearly all smokers. This
doesn't necessarily indicate there is
anything wrong with tobacco, however.
It is injurious for man to smoke
who always borrows cigar and match.
The injury is confined principally to
his friends.
Sir Walter Raleigh once asked
Queen Elizabeth to smoke his pipe.
She tried it once, and only
once. It is significant fact that inside
of year she ordered his head to be cut
off.
Amurath ". of Turkey made the of
Tense of smoking punishable by death.
As nearly all the officials OF the land
smoked he was furnished an excuse for
chopping their heads off, which was
much cheaper than hiring an assassin
to put them out of the way.

The Siamese COnceit.

The Siamese consider themselves to
be handsome race, and in their opinion
their women are more beautiful than
those of any other country. La
Loubere, French w4iter. says that he
once exhibited to the Siamese the por-
traits of some celebrated beauties of
the court of Louis XIV. and was COM
PEELED to acknowledge that they excited
no admiration whatever. A large
French doll, however, which he present
ed to one of the princes, was pro-
nounced model of physical perfection,
and he was assured that woman of
such form and such exquisite features
would command high price in the
ro,yal civ.

EVERY DAY.

Give us this day our daily bread;
If but loaf made sweet by toll
Though mama, angel-sown, be spread
No more upon this earthly soil.
Not less shall be the strength bestowed
BY Providence our constant stay;
Not less shall gratitude be owed
For homely fare OF every day.
Ours be the humble Preside light
The consultations blaze afar,
Great passions blind, and scar and blight
We cannot warm us by star.
The lowly hearth-fire suits us best;
For this we ever more will pray,
Aud love that keeps the heart at rest
The patient love of every day.
Yet every common blessing seems
Of higher good the sign and pledge;
The evening planet floats and dreams, T.,
Above the mountains rugged ledge;
So treasures above are filled
With gifts that will our prayers obey;
And tender benedictions gid
The care-worn brows OF every day.
