A Simple Remedy for Diarrhma.

1t is simply vinegar, preferable
sound cider vinegar. The dose is
about two ounces for an adult, and
should be swallowed meat with
out admixture of water. 1t may al
so he given to infants with excel
lent results. To a babe one year
old teaspoonful of moderately di-
luted vinegar would be the proper
dose. Its effect is to check pain,
tenesmus and tormonia at once to
relieve the chills and cramps when
present and to disseminate feeling
of warmth and comfort over the
body. Even in cases of chronic di-
arrhea which have long resisted
treatment, this household remedy
has succeeded in checking the dis
charges and correcting the sub-in
fiammatory condition of the mem
branes.-Health and Home.

Many years ago, in consequence
of commercial panic, there was
severe run ON bank in South
Wales and the small farmers jostled
each other in crowds to draw their
money. Things were rapidly going
from bad to worse, when the bank
manager, in fit of desperation
suddenly bethought him of an eX-
pedient. By his directions, clerk,
having heated some soVereigns in
frying pan, paid them over the
counter to an anxious applicant.
'Why they are quite hot?" said the
latter, as he took them up. "Of
course" was the reply; "what else
could you expect? They are only
just out OF the mould. We are
coming them by hundreds as fast as
we can"
Coming Them thought the
simple agriculturist. Then there
is no fear of the money running
shortr' With this their confidence
revived, the panic abated, and the
bank was enable to weather the
| storm

The labor and rush of spring
work can be much Iightened if
timely preparations are made. Cut
and prepare nicely of bean poles
and pea sticks. See that there are
no split pillow, shovel, or hoe han
dies. Overhaul all the tools, Wag-
Ons, machinery and harness. Tight
en- up and supply all loose or lost
bolts and screws. Get the frames
and sashes ready Tor the hot beds.
Turn over and work up the ma
nure. Keep the fodder cutter at
work and cut up as much feed as
can be kept conveniently for use
when required. Get together all
paint and whitewash buckets and
brushes and see that they
are clean. You should have
done that when you got through
with them last year, but if you did
not, attend to it at once. Do not
wait until the nice weather comes
and then take out your pillow to go
to work and fiud it needs a day and
a half work upon it. Get ready in
time.

St. Louis PostDispatch.-Ma
homes plan of keeping the offices in
the hands of the republicans in spite
of the election of a democratic pres
ident contemplstes the immediate
resignation of all who are appointed
for specified terms, so that President
Arthur may fill the vacancies with
republicans who could stay in to the
end of full terms, or until removed
for cause. This scheme is decided
ly military in its disregard of legal
and practical difficulties. 1t has
all the snap of cavalry raid on the
enemy's baggage train and forage.
But it's military character savors too
much of-the guerrilla conception of
war; it is too Quantrellian to meet
the views of a weld ressed presi-
dent like Arthur, who knows so
well what good form" is. He would
as soon be caught carrying off the
white house furniture, pictures and
bric-a-brac at the close of his term.

presidential campaign. To main
tain their consistency and to pay
proper tribute to their own self-re-
spect .all such officials should re-
sign early in March.
There are thousands Of persons
now holding Federal offices who
have always stoutly upheld the
doctrine that no democrat should
hold office under a republican ad-
ministration. These gentlemen
ought to resign, but we are not en-
tirely confident that they will.
During the recent campaign there
we're office holders in this city en-
ployed in making out "black lists
lists of the names of department
officials and employees who were
mot doing their duty" and who
were warned that they must go
as soon as Mr. Blaine was Inaugural
ted. 1t would be good policy for
these bulldozers to stand not on the
order of their going, but go with
the outgoing administration.

Reckless of tho ready sick.
But Pm willing now to lick
E'ep the hand that holds the stick,

While his appetite grew keener,

The President slandered.

President Cleveland is not what
is termed generally pious man,
but he has shown that he has deep
respect for religion, and that he
reverences the memory of sainted
mother. We, therefore, agree en-
tirely with the following remarks
from the Rochester N. W Morning
Herald:
Either President Cleveland has
been grossly miSrepresented con-
ceruing the language he OCCASION
ally employs to visitors or his ac-
cOmplished and pious sister should
give brother Grover piece of her
extensive and vigorous mind.
When the New York importers
called on him some time ago he
was reported as sW caring "by the
great jehovah a very impressive
torn of oath when there is an i'm
pressive OCCASION to Justify it /; but
difference of opinion as to the
value of Buffalo and New York
money did not seem to be an ade-
quate incentive to such strong Ian
guage.
Now, we are informed that the
President stupetied a Southern del
egation recently that called on him
to get some Republican officials re-
moved with the remark, "NO, gen.
tlemen, / will not remove officers
without a cause. I'll be boiled in
hell first"
We wish to say right here that
the President probably did not ust
any such language. 1t is hardly
conceivable that he could have ex,
pressed any such resolution. He
belongs to an orthodox family and
knows as well as any one that boil
ing is not one of the forms of future
punishment recognized by his faith
er's creed. Moreover, the President
has some respect for the prOprieties
OF his great station and would not
be liable to forget them when dis
cusslug the important question of
removing Republican officials to
make places for good Democrats.

THE BROKEN PROMISE.

Cliffe StanhOpe was widower,
twenty five years old, handsome as
the hero of a dream.
When the pretty, doll-like crea.
ture, who had been for one happy
year his wife, died, he had brought
the tiny child of their love home to
the old house under the hill, and
Mrs. Stanhope had another "ClIf'
fey' TO love and care fOr.
How chance does bring about
events
Scarcely had Cliffe StauhOpe
greeted his mother, kissed his boy,
and asked after his father and old
Dobbin, when u horse came dash.
ing into the clover.decked yard like
the wind, and stood quivering in
the corner by the porch when
young StanhOpe went out.
Lying ut his feet, trampled aud
covered with dirt, lay a mass OF
something.
1t was almost indistinguishable,
but the yonng mans quick eyes
took ina glimpse Of silken robes,
stained and torn, dainty foot, and
mass of yellow hair tossed over a
white, still face.
In moment he held the limp
form IN his arms, anl the horse,
again excited to fury, reared and
plunged, aud attempted to run
away with his added burden.
But quick movement freed the
skirts of the lady from the stirrup,
and away the horse dashed, leav-
ing the still form to be taken iutO
the farm house, and cared tor by
its inmates, while the young wild
over went over the hills alter a
doctor.
The young lady was the daughter
of reputed millionaire, who board
cd at fashionable hotel in the ad-
joining town, and created quite AN
excitement in the place by the fash.
ionable, stylish dress and manners.
The young lady, Isadora Clements,
was one OF those exquiSitely beau
tiful creatures whom most people
see about once in a lifetime, aud
everyb body wonders how flesh aud
blood can be so beautiful.
No wonder Cliffe Stauhope fell in
love with the young girl whose life
he had saved. Aud she wondered
that he did not tell her of his love
and ask her to be his wife.
Cliffe'S first wife had left him q
princely fortune at her death, aud
she had only asked of him a pro-
mise never to take another wife.
81 could not sleep in my grave if
another woman were to come into
your heart aud home, taking my
place." she said, only few hours
before she died.
And Cliffe Stanhope called God
to witness that he would never,
never love another woman or take
to his heart or home auOther wife.
The child-wife died peacefully.
and her memory had been In the
heart of her husband until now,
this beautiful stranger had come.
But Clitfe meant to be true to his
promise, and in spite Of the love
which be could not control, he said
to himself:
~ will 90 once more to look up
on my dear old home, aud the face
OF my boy, aud then 1 shall go
away where l shall not meet the
beautiful face which is ever tempt
ing me to break my vow to the
dead.r
Aud when there was eBohant-
ment in the simmer air, be went
down to the farm to say goodbye.
From the garden. where the roses
were in bloom, came thrilling
sounds OF baby glee aud girlish |
laughter. Softly be stole around |
the house to obtain a glimpse Of the /
child before it should see him. BE
wished also to look upon the face |
Of the girl ehO bad awakened such |
