AsS tie most eminent physician
OF any school, what is the best thing in
the world for quieting and allaying all irri-
tation of the nerves, and curing all forms
of nervous complaints, giving natural,
childlike refreshing sleep always?
And they will tell you unhesitatingly
"Some form Of Hops !!!"
CHAPTER 1.
Ask any or all of the most eminent ply
sicians
"What is the best and only remedy that
can be replied on to cule all diseases of the
kidneys and urinary organs; such as Brights
disease, diabetes, retention, or inability to
retain urine, and all the diseases and all
ments peculiar to Women -
"And they will tell you explicitly and
emphatically "BuchU ~"
Ask the same physicians
"What is the most reliable aud surest cure
for all live diseases or dyspepsia; constipa-
ague, &C., " and they will tell you:
UdHdrdke or DdndeliOR, i!!"
Hence, when these remedies are combined
with Others equally valuable,
And compounded into Hop Bitters, such
wonderful aud mysterious curative power
is developed, which is SO varied in its oper-
ations that no disease or ill health can pos.
Sibly exist or resist its power, and yet
it is
Harmless for the most frail woman, weak
est invalid or smallest child to use.

LAKE CHARLES SATURDAY SEPTEMBER
A HEARTS ANAL YSLS.


When with dainty hand the master
Deity strikes the sounding strings,
And the witching flood of music
Der the heart It's glamor fiings,-
List'ning closely, low harmonics
.Undertone the musie's roll,
Family speaking to the senses,
Whispering louder TO the soul.
So when glows the land at noon-tide,
And the God showers down his gold,
Or when Eve distils her amber,
And Nights spangled gates unfold,
Or when wreaths of protean cloudage
Whirl the face of Heaven along;
Or the leafet struck by Zephyr
Signing signs In saddening song.
Or, enthralled in dread and wonder,
Wandering by the wave-lashed shore,
Mine eyes all flied with wild commotion
And mine ears with ravening roar
Then, as always meath Earth's ehantings,
Low harmonic tones hear
Tones mysterious-fr the Far-off,
But that ever seem so near!
And as meath the chants of Nature,
So beneath the smiles of Art,
Speak the same low sountertonings
To my sad and questioning heart.
bHOhiu bcSily VI
Than the sounds that round me fall,
Speak of states of finer being
Whence in seeming comes the call.
Expound me, then, these mystic voicings,
Tell me what they fain would say;
] am young, the world know not,
Tell me, tell me, then, pray.
Say, has Life here nothing finer
Than what now feel and seeS
Hush! my rebel heart--be quiet!
Surely that can never be.
Surely Life has something finer
Than the sweetest songs of Art,
Than the chauntS and charms of Nature,
For my sad and questioning heart.
Surely-but, all me, tremble
Lest that finer thing should be,
What all around me call delusiOn,
Loves transcendent eestacy.

Richmond State.
The Republican and Independent
papers of the North are continually
saying that so long as the South is solid
for the Democracy the majority of the
Northern States will remain Repub-
lican; and they tell us that the best
thing for the Democratic party would
be a split in "the Solid South" But
this gratuitous advice has no effect,
for every representative man in the
South knows that Democratic success
means material progress and social
harmony; whilst Republican victory
would mean just the reverse. Which
State would be expected by the North
ern Republican press to take the ini-
tiatiVe in giving up Democracy?
Georgia. Well, that should hardly be
asked, even by the most pronounced
Republican. For Georgia casts Dem
ocratic majority every year--a major
ity ranging from forty-five to sixty
five thousand; and certainly no State
in the Union is making greater strides
in industrial progress than Georgia.
No, Georgia will not abandon GER
tainty simply to please the Repub-
licans. Will Alabama try the expert
ment? To-day Alabama is astonishing
the world with its iron and coal, and
the smoke of furnices in and around
Birmingham reminds one of Pitts
burgh, and Birmingham is only three
Or four years old. Capital is flowing
into Alabama, and, despite the gen
eral business depression, industrial en-
terprises in that State are fairly boom
ing. Alabama is Democratic by an
overwhelming majority, and no argu-
ment can induce the people there to |
change their politics. Texas is great |
State, and is growing rapidly in popu-
lation and increasing in wealth. And
the Lone Star State has been awarded
the Democratic banner, because last
year it gave Mr.. Cleveland a majority
of $4,000. There is no probability
of Texas changing her politics because
the Republican papers urge the ex-
pertinent Of breaking the Democratic
solidity. Virginia, North Carolina
and, indeed, all the Southern States
are reaping the benefits of their vast
resources, and it is true, as rule, that
the larger the Democratic majority
the more progressive is the State.
Virginia has suffered under Repnb-
lican rule and bossism oftener than
any other Southern State. But Vir-
ginia will never more allow man like
Malone to get possession of her affairs.
Democratic in 1883, Democratic in
1884, Virginia will remain Democratic
SO long as the Democratic party repre-
,ents the people.

CURE FOR PILES.

Files are frequently preceded by sense OF
weight in the back, ioins and lower part OF
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection OF the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times, symptoms of indi-
gestion are present, fiatuleney, uneasiness OF
the stomach, etc. A moisture, like perspira-
ton, producing very disagreeable itching,
after getting warm, is common attendant.
Blind, Bleeding and Itching Piles yield at
once 70 the application of DR.. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly upon the parts
affected, absorbing the Tumors, allaying the
intense itching, and elfeeting permanent
cure. Price so cents Address, The DIR. Bo-

BILL NYE TELLS ABOUT
SMILES.

There are many varieties of the
genus smiles. There's the smile
that's childlike and bland, the cul-
tivated smile and the pleblan smile
that ripples forth like the first JOY
Gus laugh of the boiler factory, and
that spreads out with gurgle that
closes the eye, trots out the wisdom
teeth and then shows roguish dim
pie in the tonsils.
There might be enumerated, also,
the classical smile, the subdued
smile, the parlor smile, the sacred
smile, the before re-election-smile, and
the after election smile.
Then we have the stage smile and
the portrait smile. Do you call to
mind the genial smirk which is, in
fact, the thin silk overskirt of Joy
covering the silesia sham of name
less woe? Do you happen to have
about your house the photograph of
friend whose petrifed gravity fills
your eyes with briney weep.
Joy is something that we cannot
seize ruthlessly and lead it into the
photographers laboratory by the
ear. I've tried that. l always leave
my umbrella and my hope behind
when / go into the photographers
gilded hell. l can laugh while the
dentist pulls out my sound teeth and
plugs the poor ones, and can even
be gay while nature and the cucum-
Der of commerce are engaged in
mortal combat, but / cannot affect
a joy that | do not feel while the
cast-iron hat-rack of the artist leans
against my love of home, and the
artist bids me look at place on the

MAKE YOURSELF FELT WHILE
HERE.

You may not be missed a great
deal by very wide circle of people
when you die. 1t won't be necessa-
ry for you to leave much money for
a tombstone. The few people who
love you, who tenderly and dearly
and truly love you, will know which
mound covers your sleeping figure,
and they can find it just by the ferns
and grasses that wave above it, and
monument ninety feet high won't
make strangers care for you, or make
them remember you. You may not
be missed a great deal by very many
people when you die; but that isn't
what you want to think about. You
want to make yourself felt and no.
ticed while you are here. That's
what you want to do. And that is
more than most men do. Now and
then you will meet man who actu-
ally rejoices, in mean, envlous sort
of way, to think that in few years
his more popular, prosperous, sue
cessful neighbor will be dead and
forgotten. 1t may be true. The
big, wide world is so busy with the
living that she does seem to forget
her children when they fall asleep.
But you will notice that the man who
reioices in this is usually man
whom she has forgotten while he yet
lives; who is not noticed; who is not
felt or heard of in the world at all.
Now, do you 60 ahead, and don't
stop to wonder whether the world will
remember you or miss you one hum
dred years from now,-little you will
care for this old world in hundred
years. You just go ahead and make
yourself felt now. When you are
gone, the world will get along with
out you; but while you are here, do
you make it understand that you are
running part of this show yourself,
if it is nothing more than standing at
the tent door and directing the peo-
pie to pass to the right and move
along in front of the cages.

The Years.

A year of life has glided by,
1 trace its course with Thoughtful eye;
For, rich in blessings from above,
1t shines with marks of heavenly love
My Fathers love.
From day to day, by Him were given
Each earthly good, each hope of heaven;
Nor did His hand correction spare.
But e'en His chastenings proved His care
My Fathers care.
And now year before me stands,
The future hidden in its hands;
/ know not what it may disclose,
But One who loves me sees and knows
My Father knows.
Upheld by Him, / will not fear
To meet the secret of the year;
Its changes follow His command;
/ know my times are in His hand
My Fathers hand.
My foes are strong, and am weak;
But help divine still may seek;
Look up my heart, and fear no harm,
Almighty strength is in His arm
My Fathers arm.
For as His love hath wonders done,
For as He spared not His Son;
o Lord! my unbelief remove,
Nor let me ever doubt that love
My Fathers love.
And when my days and years are past,
And all ife's training ends at last.
May I, accepted through His grace,
Behold forevermore His face
My Fathers face.
