REGENT

"For Lilias,' novel by Rosa Nouehette Carey, author of "Not Like Other Girls, etc., is now published. The story is one of the most interesting of this seasons publica- tions, It is not of the great kind of novels, full of deep study and hidden thought, but is of that kind which, with a delicacy and sweetness, delights the restless mind. It is romance, complete in itself, deserving popu- larity, and is an agreeable change from those stories that revel in suicides and exciting de scriptions. J. B. Lippincott & Co.,, publish CTS, Philadelphia. For sale in this city by Judd the bookseller.
 .sWithout Compass" is the title of a new novel by Frederick B. Van Worst. The work is very diverting one. Ingenious in con- struction, of sustained interest, it is enter taining and full of power.

Thn book, written, as it is, in popular language, is capable of being of use to everyone. It is full of practical suggestions and of valuable information It is based upon consultations with the best works and upon practical ex- perience Cassel1 & Co.,, publishers, New York For sale in this city by Judd the bookseller.

An American westminster Abbey

lffOH Iue NOVeHiOeE AGliiuliCl
 The conditions which made and make Westminster Abbey are wholly lacking in this country, and will be forever lacking.
 Ia the first place, we ought to have sin gle London, instead of six or seven, each vociferously claiming to be the only original genuine London, the one bright particular spot upon which the national mausoleum should be erected. In the second place such an institution should be under the fegis of a great established church, in default of which our Pantheon would ultimately become the receptacle of extinct pugiiists and those To- cal statesmen who prepare themselves be- hind barroom counters for tine tolls (and spoiIs} of public life. With each change of the administration there would he a revolu- ton in the management of the Pantheon, and a cry of ''Turn the rascals out" With the straight Republicans ill office, no horri- ble Mugwump, however distinguished, would
 be allowed sanctuary there; with the Demo crats in power, the gates would be pitllessly slammed on the noses of defunct offensive
 partisans" In the third place, the tomb at
 Mount Vernon and the romancer's grave on the hillside in Sleepy Hollow to mention no other shrines) are very well where they are, and no sensible person wants them removed. In regard to celebrities who may hereafter
 pass away-and here comes in a perplexing contingency-it is by no means certain that their families would look with favor on the Pantheon They might prefer some base ball ground, or Jones' Wood, or the Point of Pines. There is something very impressive and touching in the idea of Poets Corner, where the sweet singers and sober historians and realistic novelists are peacefully brought topether However little they may nave agreed with one another in the t1esh), and fattered with statues and mural tablets; but if the nation really wishes to honor that class of it's unprotected but faithful ohil- dren. and at the same time do honor to It. self. let the nation make an equitable copy riqht treaty with England, and the literary felIers will provide their own headstones. Such treaty would cost less than an at tempt at an American Westminster Abbey, and would be greatly preferable to that anu, sing, but fortunately impracticable piece of architecture.
 A man of letters wants so many things De- fore he wants to be buried-a comfortable income while living is so much more satls- factory to him than a sculptured monu-
 ment when dead-that this talk about a national Pantheon, in the absence of an ln- ternational copyright law, is, so far as he is concerned, a little exasperating. It falls coldly on his ear when he reflects how he IS piIlaged by foreign publishers, and that even his native land gives him only few years
 proprietorship in the work of his own hano and brain.

 A Connecticut crank is out with scheme to induce men to wear bonnets. This is simply dreadful. The purchase of one bon net generally upsets the family circle for 8 fortnight; but fancy the effect of purchasing two bonnets!-Philadelph Call.

 At a meeting of the farm animals the Dude once attempted to prove his relationship to the Jackass. "Why," he said, vainly, "just look at my ears.

 A seeker after information sends us the following query. We cannot but admit that his conclusions are reasonable: "The other day was told that man going to cook my goose for me. Now I would like to know what right he, or anyone else, has to cook my goose. 1 do not want it cooked, and as I haven't got one, how is he going to cook it? If I owned one I wouldn't let him do it, even if had to move to another town to prevent it. If h9 still insisted and fol lowed me he would have to dc it at his own expense If I had one and it was vicious, and chased the neighbors' mules around the pasture, would chain it up. If any man feels like cooking goose, let him cook his own and not attempt to cook other peoples. !" Texas Siftinos

How beautiful arc the above lines uttered by the worlds greatest mind How infinite the scope of
 nan's power if his facuI- ties arc we'll preserved. Nothing, short of creation, is to him impossible. Onr soul is lost in admiration when we contemplate the possibilities of this greatest exhibition of Infinite Pow CT. Yet what is this quint- essence of dust when blast ed by disease-his noble functions perverted or des- troyed? As ''aIl men arc born free and equal" as fa1. as moral rights are concerned, so likewise we hold they should be born physically, but as long as children must suf- fer for the sins of their parents this cannot be. That the husnan race has aetericra5ed physically is a conceded question, To re- store it is ali iGlpossibility, as long as people persist in iiamor- ality and indui sencies which are ill disregard Of natures laws. The most we can do then is to ameliOrate this condition and cure disease in individuals.
 To this end we offer to the pub- lie remedies which hare done more good, accomplished better results ill OverthrOWing disease than any others which have been discovered up to the present time, viz:
 DIR. FLOWERS LIVER AND STOMACH SANATIVE AND
 NERVE PILLS.
 The former is an infailibie rem-
 edy for all affections of the Liver
 and Stomach, and is besides an
 invaluable general tonic. The
 latter is a reliable cure for all nervous diseases and conditions, such as Hysteria, Sleeplessness,
 Nervous PrOstratiOn, Depression
 caused by overwork, etc. These remedies are extensive

 obtain with any other prOprie-

 other medicine.
 IN HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF BOTTLES SOLD THERE HAS NOT l BEEN A SINGLE COMPLAINT THAT THEY FAILED TO DO WHAT IS l CLAIMED FOR THEM. This we hold is an unparalleled record of success, and the strongest proof of their excellence. As positive evidence we have thousands of testimonials which we will be pleased to show, but which space
 prevents publishing. The trial
 of one bottle will be sufficient to satisfy you that we make no false claims. A valuable pamphlet
 will be mailed free upon appiica- tiOn.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
MT. Pigott seems to have "a sure thing"

Get vaccinated There is no sense in neg lecting this precaution with smallpox near.
 The Interview with Conkling, which made quite stir, is called false and mali cious by him. He admits, however, that there were some statements in the publica- tion which f'he may have made yesterday and might make again tomorrow"
 Prohibitionists can find an argument in a table of the probabilities of life for moder- ate drinkers and total abstainers published by the Journal of Hygiene. It says: A mod crate drinker at twenty years of age may sx- pect to live 15 6-10 years; at thirty, IS years; at forty, Il 6-10 years; at fifty, 10 s-10 years; at sixty, 8 9-10 years. The computation for total abstainers is: at twenty years, A 2-10 years; at thirty, 36 510 years; at forty, 28 s-10 years; at fifty, 214 years, and at sixty, 15 .2S5 years.
 A discussion in the Boston papers con- corning the prevalence of typhoid fever in that city brings out the interesting and sig nifeant facts that this disease is every year most virulent and fatal in the early autumn months, and that large proportion of the cases at that season occur among people who have just returned from their vacations. It is not to be wondered at that people who spend the summer at some of the popular places die in the fall, for the sanitary condi- tiens of those places are terrible
 Sir James Paget has been tracing the course in life of one thousand medical stu dents, taken at random from an English in stitute. He found that 29 out of the 900 achieved distinguished success; 60 had con- siderable success; 507 made a living; 124 had Q very limited success, not having made fair practice within 15 years after gradua- tion, and 56 failed utterly. Nearly 10 per cent. (96) of the whole number left the profession after beginning either study or practice, ST died after entering practice, and Al died when students.
