THE OUTSIDE OF A BOOK.

Very Often More Substance and Character
on the Outside Than on the Inside.
A well-bound book will open easily
and will close firmly. While reading it
will not be necessary to press the cov-
ers back, and when laid down they will
not cape apart. 1t will be neither stiff
as cast iron and heavy, with beveled
edges, nor limp. though fashion at
present requires it to be either one or
the other. A good binding is elastic; it
will yield, but it will return pits place.
If covered with full crushed morocco,
which makes the finest and best cover
ing, the polishing of the leathe, will be
a great test of the BINDERS care and
taste. Levant morocco comes with a
large grain, and if left so is easily dam
aged or torn. 1t should therefore be
crushed with n "polisher, large
furnishing tool, and the whole appear
ance of the book depends on how this
crushing is DONE, 1t may be so light as
to be of little service. and to look more
like the result of accident than of de-
the desirable variety of texture is quite
lost, or it may be uneven, spotty and
slovenly. The gilt tooling and letter
ing should, in modern books, be neat
and sharp. The ornamental tooling,
which is done with small stamps, called
irons, though now universally engraved
In brass, may be SO arranged as to form
very pretty patterns or the reverse. 1t
follows that book may have as much
character in its outside appearance as its
inside, and very often it has more sub
stance. Like everything that is done
by hand, it may be vulgar or quiet,
coarse or elegant, flimsy or substantial.
There is nolsort of hand work that does
not rise at times to the dignity of a fine
art. and bookbinding is certainly no ex-
ception. Y Times.

Suffering womanhood.

Too much effort can not be made to bring
to the attention of suffering womanhood
the great value of Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound rs q remedy for the
diseases Of women, and perhaps nothing
is moro effectual than the testimony of
those who have been cured by it. Such an
oneis the wife of General Barringer, of
Winston, N. c., and we quote from the
General's letter as follows: "Dear Mrs.
Pinkham: Please allow mo to add my
testimony to the most excellent medicinal
qualities of your Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. Barringer was treated for several
years for what the physicians called Leu
coIrhea and Prolapsus Uteri combined. I
sent her to Richmond, Va, where she re-
manned for six months under the treatment
of ian eminent Physician without any
pefmanent benefit. She was induced to
try your medicine and after reasonable
time commenced to improve and is now
able to attend to her business and consid-
ers herself fully relieved" [General Bar
ringer is the proprietor of the American
Hotel, Winston, N. c., and is widely known.

THE DRUMMER.

The Man who Ia Commercial From tho
Topmost Curl to the Tip OF tho Toe.
The drummers are among the most
vigorous, handsome and useful portions
of the West They keep up the hotels,
and now they are keeping up skating
rinks. What the coachman is to New
York and the ardent young girl, the
drummer is to embryo Western society.
He makes his appearance like COM
edian or tragcdian, he has tho best
roller skates, his instincts are social,
beauty never frightens him away. All
day he addresses himself to getting on
the inside of the local tradesmen, and
that night he addresses himself TO the
tradcsman's sisters and aunts. You
can see them, 1t is said, tumbling off a
railroad train at some certain station
and Immediately collaring the hackman
or ticket agent there and demanding
"Have you got a skating rink in this
town." mo" Then before the
astonished resident comprehends the
question the druInmers are all back on
the train again, moving for the next
town, where there is skating rink and
social openings.
He must be pretty smart and bright
minded and well-behaved citizen in q
town not to find some time or other his
most dreaded rival in the drummer.
The drummer is particular about
his attire. He wears, il not
an expensive scarf-pin, very tasteful
and stunning one; his scarf is of
the best colors and at once strikes the
young resident woman with his supe-
rior knowledge of decoration. He wears
ring on his finger; sometimes of q
prime material; again inexpensive, but
bewildering. He keeps his nails mod
erately long and exceptionally clean in
a biluminous coal country. He only has
to dive into his trunks and wear his
own samples to cut out the best well
dressed man in the community he Wis.
its. He is splendid packer of trunk
and his trunks are stupendous. Per-
haps he has put away in them little
articles to make presents of when he
has made mash at the skating rink.
He has photograph of the latest act
ress or small chrome containing the
latest joke.
If he is not an educated man he is in.
formed especially on things of local in
| terest. If there is celebrated beauty
in town, or late scandal case, or high.
class defalcation, he delights the young
woman whom he meets at the rink with
the fneness of his criticism and his par.
allel readings. He always shaves
beautifully and wakes his mustache, un.
less he wears q full beard, when he is
absolutely formidable. Undeterred in
business, he is invincible in insinua.
ton and sentiment. If he is a small
man he has twinkle about him which
makes him look six feet high If he is 9
big man he has softness which brings
him down to the eyelashes and nose o.
the local coquette. He is no snob and nc
respecter of persons, and therefore never
impresses anybody as putting on airs
yet bores avoid him and high respect
ability, at first shrinking from him. i.

A PHYSICIANS ADVICE.

II you are suffering from general de-
bility, nervous prostration, sinking
spells, etc, superinduced by impure
blood, weak kidneys and liver, etc, do not
resort to alcoholic compounds, nor use
remedies that cause too great activity
of the parts affected. 1t is far more wise
to use mild Alternative like Or. Guy
sott's Yellow Dock and SarSa-
parijla, This remedy contains nothing
Injurious to the most delicate constitu-
ton, and its use gradually builds up and
strengthens, while diuretic and cathartio
compounds tear down, wear out and de-
stroy.
DR.. GuysOtt's YellO,U Dock and Sdrsdpd-
Titd restores impaired or lost organic
functions to their normal condition. and
1t invariably gives satisfaction to all who
use 1t.
Do not forget that any druggist will
procure the remedy for you, especially
when they find you will not be persuaded
TO try some other preparation on which
they make more money. You will find'
its effect most wonderful. Your old
energy will return, your natural force
come back, and you will feel altogether a
new person, full of health, strength and
yigor. Former invnlids speak highly of
the preparation, and nll acknowledge it
perfect health restorer, especially in
diseases of debliitatlng nature having
tendency to poison aud thin tho blood,
thereby weakening tho urinary and di-
gestive organs, and exhausting the
brain and nervous system.
Br Worn out and enfeebled con-
stitutions, suffering from dyspepsia.
impure blood, weak kidneys, nerV,
business, ETC., can be cured by
using this remedy. Take no other.

Lots of Trouble.

yesterday morning, the former to prose-
cute and the latter to defend in batch
of rum cases to be tried before Justice
II. ID. Maynard and jury. VIM. Chap
man. one of the defendants. was accused
of selling cider. aid James Hayes and 10
others of getting drunk. The two
cases mentioned were nolle-prosscd and
the others were continued till the 18th of
June.
At the same place, Monday. july de-
cided that John Grant was not guilty of
breach of the peace. 1t seems that there
las been for some time a feud between
Grant and one Horace Laquee, and at a
dance at the Glen House on the evening
of May Laquec pitched into Grant and
gave him terrible pounding. Laquee
was arrested the next day on complaint
of Special Prosecutor Upper. and. on
being arraigned before Justice Maynard,
pleaded guilty to assault and breach of
the peace and was fined. Then complaint
was made that Grant. also. was guilty of
breach of the peace, but it appearing
that he was not the assailant. the jury
reached the conclusion stated. Mr.. Shade
appeared as counsel for these respond

Some Vermont Horses.

A recent issue of the AmericdR Cultioa-
tor contains the following:
Vermont correspondent who has
been out among the horsemen writes /:
Il lately made West Cornwall, Vt, a
dying visit, and called upon Mr.. j. w.
Peck, who kindly showed me his young
stallion Goldmine, by Aristos, sire of Ii.
b. Winship (2OG with running mate).
This colt was foaled June II. 1883, is
very large and stylish, now stands nearly
10 81 hands high and weighs about 1000
POUNDS. His limbs are heavy and re-
narkablv clean, neck long and well
arched, very short back coupled on long
and powerfully-muscled hips his gait is
clean and easy, and good Judges think he
can show better than a three-minute clip
now. At Ticonderoga saw a splendid
bay filly coming three years old, owned
by Eli Porter, sired by Aristos dam, the
dam of Boston (2.27), and Pansy owned
by Mr.. William Read, Boston. Mass :,
(who 9as shown,I am credibly informed,
2.22) she is full sister to the latter. This
tilly started in the two-year old race on
Lake George last winter, winning with
out an effort and showing her ability of
trotting better than 800.
