reminds me OF a letter shown me the other day

capped the fate OF those whom the poet laments.
This preparation, which has heretofore been
known as PARKER'S GINGER Tonic, will here
after be advertised and sold under the name OF
PARKER'S Tonic. lnasmuch as ginger is really

Tho missour; River commi,,io.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. o.-The Missouri river
commission met here to-day, Major
Charles r. Suter, president, in the
chair. The purpose was to agree upon
q report to the secretary Of war. AS
the commission has done no work yet,
this will be brief. 1t will give, however,
a resume of the work done under the
direction OF the Mississippi river COM
mission, who formerly had the work In
charge, and will briefly outline the plan
of this commission for future opera
tions. This contemplates, in a gem
eral way, the plan proposed by
Major Suter in his report Of
1881, which has been published, but one
radical change is to be made. Heretofore
it has been customary to make small ap-
propriations for allotments for a number
of points on the river,and prosecute all of
them Mt the same time. This has proved
ineffective, and it is now proposed to be-
gin at Kansas City and work down the
stream, completing operations at each
point before leaving it. Only surveys
will be made this winter, but in the
spring active operations will begin. The
report is to be semitic the secretary of
war as soon as completed.
