Bad Blood

Is inclined to come to the surface in the
Spring because of the effort made by
good old mother nature to throw it off.
If nature does not have help at this time,
the poison may go back to the system and
produce all manner of ills; but by the aid
of Swifts Specific the bad blood is all
driven out through the pores of the skin,
and permanently relieves the trouble.
This remedy is purely vegetable and
harmless preparation, but so powerful an
antidote to blood poison, that it finds and
roots it all out, Do not be deceived by
Mercury and Potash mixtures, which
drive in the poison, only to come ont
again in worse form.
| have cured permanently Blood Taint
in the third generation by the use of
Swifts Specific, after had most signally
failed with Mercury and Potash.

MAMMOTH CAVE OUTRIvALED. - A
natural curiosity that bids fair to outriva
the famous cave of Kentucky has just
been discovered on the farm of John
Davis, who resides six miles east oil
Jacksborro. Campbell County, Tennessee
The cave, judging from reports. promises
to pan out a satisfactory dish for the
curiosity seekers. Only one chamber
has been explored thus far, and that only
partly, in which prehistoric mummies,
with sandals on their feet, in excellent
state of preservation, have been found,
some petrifed, others preserved by the
salt of the cave. The walls of the cham.
Der are decorated with paintings of ex-
;inct or imaginary animals. A large
stream abounds with blind fish. Mr..
Davis has captured a species of jackall
or red fox, and the cave seems to be
alive with both animal and vegetable
life. Crickets as large as English SPAR
rows hop or leisurely walk off when
alarmed, and rats as large as jack>rabbits
run about in semi-domesticated recog
milton. Foot prints of exquisite mould
are we'll defined in the hardened mud,
and miniature forests along the banks of
the river are clothed in snow-white foliage
and sensitive fowers.-Boston Post.

AN ENGINEER SCALDED TO DEATH. -
On Sunday afternoon Engineer William
Berry, of Baraboo, met death at Mendoza
Station, few miles north of Madison.
While his engine was running at pretty
good rate of speed, the fanges of the
wheels climbed the rails" jumped the
track. turned over and the fatal result
followed.
As the engine turned oyer, Engineer
Berrv's foot was caught securely, cock
or pipe of the boiler was broken, so that
steam was thrown directly on the body of
the engineer. He realized he was being
scalded to death. He was held by the
leg aforesaid, so that he could not move.
1t is reported that he begged and implored
bis companions to release him by sever
ing his leg with an ak. Of course no
one could be found to do this. The poor
sufferer conversed with bis companions
while he was agonizing in his roasted
condition. He spoke of bis dear wife and
babe and gave directions regarding their
care. He conversed with his compan
ions until within a few moments of his
death. The fireman escaped through
the window on his side just as the engine
was going over. The head brakeman
received few slight bruises.-Madison

ALL IN THE LINE OF NATURE.-There
is nothing in the line of magic or mys-
terry about that wonderful and popular
medicine. Parker's Tonic. 1t is simply
tie best and most scientific combination
possible of the essential principles of those
vegetable curatives which act powerfully
and directly on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and blood. But there neither
is, nor will be, any successful imitation
of it. 1t is all the time curing those
who had despaired of ever getting well.

"THE BEST PARTY FOR MAN
KIND"

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher has said
that he will not vote for Mr.. Blaine.
Does Mr. Beecher remember vigorous
speech he made in favor of Grover Cleve-
land as candidate for Governor at meet
ing held in the Brooklyn Rink under the
auspices of the Young Republican Club,
on the evening of November 3, 1882? In
that speech he distinctly defined the line
that separates state from national politics,
and, after eloquently reciting the reasons
which impelled him to withhold his sup
port from the Republican nominee for
the Governorship, he as eloquently re-
newed and confirmed his fealty to the ma.
tionai Republican party. Here are his
words: My fidelity to those moral prin-
clples which are at the bottom of all po-
litical affairs compels me to be a Repub-
lican on all national questions. [ believe
IN the Republican party as the best one
for the poor man, for the laboriDg man,
for the whole country and for mankind.
But when l come to New York State
matters l am a Republican--with a re-
adjustment. | am not then held by ma
tional questions. L am a Republican
through the separate consideration of
state affairs, and, if have to act in these
affairs against my conscience, | break the
party ties. But I continue to be
a national Republican. You can't put
me out of that party; that is something
impossible. No man can say that my
right hand shall not vote for Repub-
lican President, or to sustain the national
policy of my party
Are not those words as true to-day as
they were two years ago? Since they
were uttered has not the national party
been faithful to the principles and policy
which won Mr.. Beecher's heartfelt loyal
ty? Does not the National ticket present
men tried in the services which have
made the Republican party "the best for
the poor man, for the laboring man, for
the whole country and for mankind?"
How can Mr.. Beecher, or those who
thought with him, reconcile his utterances
in November, 1882, with his rebellion in
July, 1884? He himself would have
spurned with indignation the prophecy
in 1882 that less than two years later it
would be his own voice which would say
that his right hand would net "vote for q
i Republican President" and would not
sustain the national policy of his par
ty. Alas! the mighty are indeed fallen.
