CURE PILES

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense
of want of weight in the back, loins aud
lower part OF the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys or nelghboring organs. At
times, symptoms ofindigestion are present
fatulency, uneasiness Of the stomach, etc.
A moisture like p~erspin.ion, producing a
very disagreeable itching, after getting
warm. is n common attendant. Blind,
bleeding and itching piles yield at once to
the application of DR.. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly on the parts
effected, absorbing the tumors, allaying
the intense itching, and eiiecting a per
manent cure. Price 80 cents. Address

doe Howard In Boston Herald-l
Physicians have been cropping in the
dark for centuries, and nothing more
aptly typifes their everyday action than
that significant word practice. Thu
great ma. GRITTY of physicians are prac
ticing all the time, and, considering
how little they really know, the aid and
comfort they are to the race is marvel
GUS. As 4 matter of fact they are OF
more comfort than aid. A physician
who understands human nature, who
plays with the baby, makes friends with
the children and listens to the woes and
%tribulations of the good wife and mother,
is the fellow to whom the master of the
house most cheerfully pays the largest
bills. 1t isn't the medicine that's bot
tied up, but its the comfort, the conso-
lation, that are Ifnhottled, that marks
the broad line between an unsuccessful
and a popular physician.
But n doctor who studies, who keeps
abreast of the times, who is familiar
with all new discoveries, and who APP
plies tests and educates himself, not
that he may keep six or eight horses. not
that he may live on this, that or the
other avenue, not that his family may
shine in society. but that he may be a
man marked among his fellows by rea-
son of his h~elpfulness TO his kind, surely
he may expect to stand side by side with
the most advanced, the most useful of
the children of the earth.

nugo's idea. OF the Future Life.

Victor Hugo wa always convinced
that he would meet all his friends in a
future world. lie was equally sure that
he had always existed from the antedi-
luyian times when the Creator placed
him on earth. lie believed that he
would exist forever, inasmuch as he felt
in his soul thousands OF hymns, dramas
and poems that had never found ex-
preston.
When the atheists would say to him:
THE proof hat you will not exist in the
future is that you did not exist in the
past, Hugo would answer: "Who
told you | cid not exist in the past cen
turies' You Will say that is the legend
of the ages. The poet has written:
Life is a fairy tale twice written He
might have said a thousand times
written. There is not an age in which
! cannot find my spirit. You do not
believe in the doctrine of surviving
personalities for the reason that you do
not recollect your anterior existence.
But how canthe recollection of vanished
ages remain imprinted on your memory
when you do not remember a thousand
and one scenes and events Of your pres
ent life Since 1902 there have been
ten Victor Hugos in me. DO you think
that | can recall all their actions and all
their thoughtsl The tomb is dark, and
when | shall have passed the tomb to
emerge into light once more all these
Victor Hugos will be almost wholly
strangers to me, but it will always be
the same sOul.n

TIM New York EreR6qg Post naturally
desires to know what the Republican party
proposes to do in case it should succeed
in 1888. The Democratic administration
is living well up to its platform of princi-
pies adopted at tie last National convon-
ton. President Cleveland and his cabi-
net are actually reforming serious abuses
that have prevailed for a long time. Yet
our Republican friends are grumbliug all
the time about the Democrats. If half a
dozen of the hundred thousand Republi-
can oiiiceholders are removed on tho
principles of reform and equality, they
raise the cry Of a violation of their en-
tailed rights or life tenure in office. In
view OF all this the Post says:
I'VE have heard a great deal lately of
the dreadful shortcomings of the Demo
Gratis in the matter of civil service reform.
Ii is time now that we should hear ex-
actly what the Republicans would do if
they got back to power, in this matter.
nave they gwen un, or would they adhere
to the plan of excluding one-half their
countrymen from the public s%ervice2 We
have heard, too, n great deal about the
appointment to office of ''ex-rebels, or
OF men who served in the Confederate
army. What we should like to know now
is, whether the permanent exclusion Of
all such persons from the public service is
part Of the Republican policy. We should
like to know also whether the present
tariff just as it is, is in Republican eyes a
settled and unalterable mode of raising
revenue, or whether it is susceptible in
our time of change or modification. 1t
is not a day too soon to begin talking on
these topics in an affirmative way"

IANHth hNFt tNfANAN
At Payta we took on a battalion of
Peru,ia ian soldiers, with one brass
mounted officer to every seven men.
Tho wives and families of the Peruvian
army always travel with them like the
squaws and papQoses of the North
American Indian. In camp the women
do the cooking; on the march they carry
on their backs and heads a great part Of
the camp equipage, and in battle they
nurse the wounded and rob the dead.
They are poor, miserable, degraded
creatures; Just one degree above the
dogs which follow at their heels. Their
powers of endurance are extraordinary.
Often 1t is the case that they will march
twenty or thirty miles a day over dusty
roads, carrying a child on their backs,
without water or food.
The poor children have the hardest
time, for they are always without rest
or shelter and often without food. But
it is tine experience they are born into,
and they know nothing Of a better life
The officers tell me that the children
often die on the march, when their
mothers strip the clothing from them
and throw the bodies into the sand or
woods, without even a burial or a tear.
IN the contrary, the women seem to be
glad to be relieved by death Of an in.
cumbrance.

Manufacturer and Builder
In bravado a young man placed tho
muzzle of his fowling piece under the
water and fired the charge. The result
was the bursting of the barrel near the
brcech and the mutilation of his hand
Another placed and held the muzsle Of
his gun square against a piece of plate
window glass and fired Che charge -
powder and bullet. The glass was shat
tered, so was the gun barrel. Another
instance was hat of an experimenter
who had heard that a candle could be
fired from the barrel of a gun through
an inch board. He drove a candle into
the muz 10 of a gun, fired, and the ex-
plosion split the barrel almost its entire
length, and did not even drive the can
die from its muzzle. Still another bursting
Of a gun barrel was caused by the use
OF wet grass as a wad, well rammed
down over a charge of shot.
But perhaps one of the most singular
exhibitions in this line was u Colts
navy revolver, which some years ago
was sent to the factory in Hartfort,
Conn. This was before the adoption Of
these pistols to the metallic cartridges.
and it is probable that in loading with
open powder and ball only q all
amount of powder got into the cham
beers, and the bullet was not propelled
with sufficient force TO drive it from the
muzzle; at least tho bullet did not go
out, but lodged AS the shooter did not
know whether the bullet escaped or
not, he kept OF firing until the barrel
burst or bulged, and when it was sawed
in two longitudinally there was found
fourteen bullets wedged n into the
other, and so much upset by the
hammering OF the successive explosions
OF the powder charges that some of
them were not less than one inch in
diameter, fattened dies instead of
conical bullets.

4 young man entered a Wall street
office recently and wanted to make n
contract for furnishing the office with
clean towels. When asked about his
business, he said; Il represent a com
pany organized for this work alone. We
undertake to come into any dice once
Or twice a day. as may be required, and
to furnish n or any number Of towels
at regular intervals by the year for a
stipulated price. This work Is usually
done by ianitors, the occupants Of Offices
supplying their own towels. 1t is un-
satisfactory in most instances. The
%ianitor has so much else to attend 10
that he forgets or neglects this duty very
often. We supply or own towels and
make contracts by the quarter or year.
We have met with decided success, and
in many cases have found the ianitors
glad to be relieved Of the work. The
occupants of offices receive us WELL

The oldest Almanac.

NoNNehAhh 1NhlhAA
An almanac 8, 1000 years old, found in
Egypt, is in the British museum. 1t is
supposed to be the oldest in the world.
1t was found on the body OF an Egyp.
tian, who had, doubtless, regarded 1t
with as much reverence as no did the
g ptian bible-''rhe Book ofthe Dead
and, indeed, it is strongly religious in
character. The days are written in red
ink, and under each is a figure, followed
by three characters signify ing the prob.
aDle state of the weather for that day.
Like the other Egyptian manuscripts it
is written on papyrus. 1t is written in
columns. 1t is not in its integrity, but
was evidently torn before It's owner died.
II clearly establishes the date of tho
reign of Ramoses the Great, but contains
nothing else Of value.

HAIR REVIEWER

was the first preparation perfectly adapted to
cure diseases of the scalp, and the first sue
cessful restorer of faded or gray hair to its
Natural color, growth, and youthful beauty.
1t has had many imitators, but none have SO
fully met all the requirements needful for
the proper treatment of the hair and scalp.
HALLS HAIR REVIEWER has steadily grown
in favor, and spread its fame and usefulness
to every quarter Of the globe. Its unparal-
leled success can be attributed to but one
cause: the entire JnifIment Of its promises.
The proprietors have often been surprised
At the receipt of orders from remote coun-
tres, where they had never made an etIortfor
its introduction.
The use for n short time Of HALLS HAIR
REVIEWER wonderfully improves the per-
sonal appearance. 1t cleanses the scalp from
all impurities, cures all humors, fever, and
d~ryness, and thus prevents badness. 1t
stimulates the weakened glands, and enables
them to push forward a new and vigorous
growth. The effects Of this article are not
transient, like those of alcoholic prepare
tons, but remain a long time, which makes
its use a matter OF economy.
