Out of Tune

When the tones of musical instru-
ment become harsh and discordant, we
say it is tout of tune The same may
be said of that far more wonderful and
complicated piece of mechanism, the
human structure, when it becomes
diSordePed. Not only actual disease,
but those far more common causes.
overwork, mental anxiety, and fast liv
ing, may impair its vigor and activity.
The best remedy for partial collapse
of the vital energies, from these as
from other sources, is Hoststter's
Stomach Bitters, which is at the same
time an agreeable and mind cheering
cordial. and the best possible invigorant
in all classes of debility. 1t is an IN
comparable stomachic and anti-bilious
medicine, eradicates fever and ague,
and prevents subsequent attacks. 1t
remedies with certainty and thorough
ness, bowel and kidney complaints,
dyspepsia, nervousness, rheumatic
troubles, neuralgia. and many other
bodily ailments. 1t also counteracts
influences which predispose to disease.

Tribune.
UNLAWFUL COHABITATION. .
who can stand an Impartial Admin
istration of the Edmunds Law
Longest, Mormons or Nom
Mormons?
The following extracts explain them

The following extracts explain them
selves:
To the Editor Of the Tribune:
SIR: You say in your issue of the 18th
isst. The Mormons do not appear to
have gained much in the Presidents as
surance that the law shall be imparti
ally administered. They have NOTHING
to hope from that"
Let US see. The third section of the
Edmunds act is as follows: That il
any male person, in any Territory OIL
other place over which the United
States have exclusive jurisdiction, here
after cohabits with more than one wo-
man, he shall be deemed guilty of mis-
Gemesnor, and by conviction thereof
shall be punished by fine of not more
than $500, or by Imprisonment for not
more than six months, or by both said
punishments in the discretion of the
Court"
This applies to all Territories and the
District OF Columbia. Suppose it is as
vigorously enforced on non-Mormons as
against Mormons, and circumstantial
evidence is held to be sufficient to con-
yict. who could stand it the longest, the
Mormons or non-Mormons?
The government furnishes money to
spy out the domestic relations of Nor
mons; suppose it was to. supply money
to spy out the unlawful Capitalization"
of -NOrmons, who would get the
worst of it; who would howl the loud
est, Mormons or non-Mormons? Let
him that is without sin cast the first
stone. Respectfully,
JOHN T. GAME.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. May 10th, 1885.
Commenting upon the above the
Lancaster, Pa, InteLLigencer says:
JOHN T. GAME, in letter to the New
York Tribune, makes good point when
he cites the third section of the Ed
munds anti-polygamy act as follows:
That if any male person, in any Ter
ritory or other place over which the
United States have exclusive jurisdic-
ton, hereafter cohabits with more than
one woman. he shall be deemed guilty
of misdemeanor, and, on convection
thereof, shall be punished by fine of
AOJ nOtS Ludu POW, VI ny 1HlpIlSOuAtHL
for not more than six months, or by
both said punishments, in the discre-
ton of the Court.
Mr.. Game and his Mormon friends are
entirely reasonable when they maintain
that as this law applies to all the Terri
tories and the District of Columbia, it
should be enforced as vigorously in
Washington as in Salt Lake City,
against Gentiles as well as Mormons,
upon Eastern saints as well as Western
sinners. Says Mr.. Game, 'the govern
ment furnishes money to spy out the
domestic relations of Mormons; suppose
it was to supply money to spy out the
unlawful cohabitation' of non-Mor-
mons, who would get the worst of it;
who would howl the loudest, Mormons
or non-Mormons? The answer is OBJ
vious. If this law were to be enforced
relentlessly for one day in Washington
it would disclose and punish more crime
than IN months execution of it in
Utah.

The Fashions In These Feminine AdVuneta
~ Indicated In Metropolitan Journals
Sleeves have undergone no change
for high-necked dresses. For evening.
however, they are made in several ways.
There is the mere strap, formed of the
ruching, or band of flowers, which
trims the neck of the Grecian bodice
and which requires an arm of marble
to do it justice; then there is the
fichu sleeve. which looks like tiny
handkerchief puffed over the shoulders
and fastened at each side of the arm
hole at the top of the bodice. This
sleeve is intended to match the chem
isette or tucker under the dress bodice.
A third sleeve is half sleeve of white or
black lace, according to the color of the
dress. This sleeve forms two vandykes,
which are buttoned together over the
arm, thus covering only the under part
of the arm. tits most becoming. Then
comes the armlet sleeve. which has the
usual shoulder-strap and second band
midway between the shoulder and
elbow. And. finally. there is the epau-
lette sleeve. with the epaulette made Of
bows of ribbon, or lace, or fringe.
ACCORDION plating bids fair to be
very popular for both walking and home
dresses this spring. 1t is one OF those
fashions which startle at first and then
become universally in favor at their
second appearance. Train skirts are
even being ACCORDION plated and they
are extremely pretty.-Philadctphsd

A Georgia Quilting.

A quilting was organized at the house
of very bashful young man by the
young ladies of this settlement, with .
view of getting him into society. The day
being arranged and everything in readi-
ness, the girls met and commenced the
fun. The young man thought. to evade
the crowd, he would go to the back side
of the plantation to work. aud he took
himself thither and commenced opera
tons in secluded spot. He had not
been there long before he encountered
a huge coach-whip snake which made
fight. The young man fought bravely,
but his snakeship got the better of it.
and the young man had to hit the grit
lively. He started homeward and the
snake after him. As he moved he
looked back over his shoulder occasion
allv, but his snakeship was there. he
opened his throttle and got up railroad
speed, and at last reached the yard
fence exhausted. He fell into the yard.
when one of the girls rescued him and
killed the snake. The snake had struck
at him and fastened its fangs into his
coat so it could not get it loose until he
reached home.-Moral: Young man,
don't be bashful, not too much So

His Usual Advice.

There was another Cincinnati riot the
other day. A young man who had lost
about $4,000 on a wheat speculation
went for broker with:
See here, didn't you say that wheat
was as low as it could go?"
20, yes"
..And that it was = good time to
buy?"
Certainly"
..And that you'd advise any one de-
sirous of specializing to invest in
wheat?"
Il believe that was my advice"
.'Well, sir. / bought wheat on your
advice and am SIC, 600 out of pocket. as
you know"
Exactly"
'But what are you going to do about
it?" howled the victim.
The same as always do, was the
placid answer. II always advise drop
ping wheat and going into oats"-
