"Haroun of Aleppo," said Sir
Philip Derval, chad mastered every
secret in nature which the nobler
magic seeks to fathom. He dis
covered that the true art of healing
Is to assist Nature to throw off the
disease-to summon, as it were, the
whole system to eject the enemy
that has fastened on a part. His
processes all included the reinvigo-
ration Of the principle Of life."-
In this the Eastern sage merely
and anticipated the practice of the
best physicians Of to-day. What
life itself is, nobody knows now.
But we have learned something Of
the reasons why the mysterious tide
rises and falls. Provided the great
organs Of the body are not irreparar
bic destroyed, medical science can
always relieve, and often save.
Yet no reputable physician now adj
heres to the barbarous and stupid
processes of depletion, such as
bleeding, by which it was attempt
ed to cure disease by. reducing the
patients ability to resist it. Now
a-days we not tear down the fort
to help the garrison-we strengthen
it. In this intelligent and bene6-
cient work, it is conceded that Pars
ker's Tonic leads all other medi-
cines. AS an invigorant it acts
Immediately and powerfully upon
the circulation and the organs Of
digestion, thus giving nature the
assistance she calls for. It follows
that all ailments Of the stomach,
kidneys and liver are at once re-
lieved Or cured. No other prepar-
alton embodies the same qualities
or produces results. 1t is delicious
to use, and the best known anti-in-

The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1884-02-21

WE agree with the Shreveport
Democrat and Claiborne Guardian
that the absurd election law Of this
State oughtto be repealed and
sensible and just one enacted
Especially should the clause rela-
tive to size, color and texture Of the
paper upon which the ticket is %
be printed or written, be stricken
out, if no other change is made;
for it is an outrage upon the people,
to which they should not submit,
not because the voter is required to
procure the paper for his ticket
from the Secretary of State alone,
but becanse no Legislative body has
the right to dictate to him what
kind Of paper he usea in voting.

SToNEwALL JACKsoN's DAuGIifER.-
American girls in London Of late have COM
pletely eclipsed the fame of such probes
sional beauties as Mrs Langtry, Mrs. Corn
wallis West aud Lady Dudley. Having
fallen al the feet OF Miss Chamberlain, Mary
Anderson. and Minnie Palmer, they arc
now ravine over tho charms Of Julia Jack
son, the daughter OF StoneWai! jackson.
She mus. have been riding i'll Rotten Row
when she captured the nobility and gentry
ofthe United Kingdom, for, in tlis country
ut least, her beauty would hardly attract
attention in a crowd But she is the most
graceful and magnificent horsewoman that
/ ever saw. | was introduced TO her at the
White Sulphur Springs, Virginia, few
wears ago and rode with her frequently over
the difficult mountain roads OF the nelShbor-
hood. She seemed born 10 lie saddle,
GUIDED her stced with al the ease magma
bic. and challenged the emulation OF her
male companions by her fcaTessness in gal
;opinc along the edge of a yawAing chasm
hundreds OF feet deep, jumping stone
wills and lcapiag bitches. Her figure is
,,etitc and wilowy, but her complexion is
sallow, aud the plainness Of her features Is
only relieved by the magnificent lustrc and
and sparkle Of 4 pair OF big black eyes. one
will certainly astonish the Britishers by her
rare combination ofSood sense and culture
with an utter freedom from Conventionallty.
On horseback she is every inch her fathers
daughter, and by no great stretch of imagl-
nation one could fancy her leadinga despe-.
rate charge with all the spirit and ardor OF
martial inspiration. Miss Jackson is quite
young, still in her teens, in fact. Her life
has been mostly spent in the country, and
she was hardly thrown in Northern society
until few months before her departure,
when she visited Boston, was handsomely
received, aud created a genuine sensation.
Her family is comparatively poor, having
lost nearly everything by the war. But it
is to be hoped that by way of legitimate re-
prisal for the capture ofso many of our heir
csses by mpecunous English lords she may
make captive some wealthy scion of the
British nobility.
THE above is entirely & sketch of fancy.
Miss Jackson never was in England, nor
does she emulate her Northern sisters in
their pursuit of mobility" her own being
too we'll assured.
