Is THIS POSSIBLEI

Report comes that General Grant's
improved condition is due to the fact
that he Is using ''simple vegetable pre-
paratlon" forwarded by one o. our con
sus from South America, and sent him
by the Surgeon General Is this pos
>lbie! By all .'unauthorizad" remedy
Shockingl
And yet if this "simple vegetable pre-
paratlon" were owned and advertised 10y
any one as a specific for this terrible
disease, certainly the Surgeon General
would not commend it, nor would bigot-
ed physicians prescribe it!
Nevertheless, it is "a fact that many of
the best proprietary mediciss of the day,
as the late DR.. J. g. Holland stated III
Scribner's Monthly, were more success
fnl than many physicians, and most of
them it should be remembered, were at
first discovered or used iE actual me dical
practice. When, however, any shrewd
persons, knowing of their virtue and
foreseeing their popularity, secured and
advertised them, then, in the opinion of
the bigoted, all virtue went out of theml
Isn't this absurd
We believe that remedy, if properly
made, is just as effective when put up,
advertised and sold in bulk, as when
doied out TO patients at enormous ex-
pense by their physicians.
Why not?
If General Grant is getting better
through simple unauthorized vegetable
PREPARATION where is the vaunted eIclu-
sive skill of the medical profession
Apropos OF the suspension of some very
prominent members by the Medical and
Chirugical faculty OF Maryland, for en-
dorsing advertised remedies, the Balti
more American of April 25th says that
when patent medicine goes Oh year
after year widening its circle of bsliev-
ers, it is a pretty fair evidence that there
is merit III it. The regular doctors may
ignore it, and expel any of their mem
bers who nse it, but when they do SO
their action looks more like envy against
successful remedy than true desire to
protect the public" The failure in the
Garfield and Grant cases, tie American
thinks, and properly, has knocked pro
fessional pretensions higher than a kite.
But this is not singular instance of
unprofessional power over 'iDcurable
diseases. That 'tsimple vegetable pro
paratlon" now everywhere known as
Warmers safe cure, was once an author
lied remedy; was pronounced a "eod
send to the medical profession for the
cure of kidney and liver disorders,
malaria, general debility, spring feeble
ness, female irregularities, etc, by many
leading physicians, but when the formula
was fully perfected, and the medicine WAS
put up i'll bnlk and advertised so that
every sufferer might know of it ard treat
himself. then the profession turned upon
it and let their patients die rather than to
use it.
This ia certainly a strange proceeding.
but it is on a lsvel with all the rules and
regulations OF a code which has gone 20
far as to forbid a physician displaying
beyond certain size his name and pro
fession upon his signi
But the world moves, and merit wins
the fight!

A Change in Neckwear.

There is a radical change this season
in centlemen's neckwear. The per-
fectly flat scarf has almost entirely van
ishei and with it have largely vanished
scaf-pins. A great many men still
wear flat ties and scarf-pins, but they
are not considered in good form. The
principal scarf that has taken its place
is the ''four-in-hand," so named from
its shape to the ribbon reins of coach
team. Although in England this scarf
Is worn as broad as an ordinary enve-
Iope IN this country the usual width is
about that of paper cutter. 1t is tied
with an overlapping slip-knot, the long
er end pulling through the loop. Dur
ing the Winter the popular four-in-
hands have been in dark, rich colors
generally, with some marking, such as
dot, diamond or leaf. The Spring
styles are in checks and stripes in light
colo.s, greys and slate effects being the
mos popular and elegant. What is
known as 1.-The shepherds plaid" in
black and white, is all the rage in Lon
don and will be very much worn. Grey
will oe the elegant gentlemen's color,
though dark blue will find favor with
many. Red effects are all the go in
New York. a good many young col
lege fellows are again wearing the old
fashioned narrow tie, made in an ordi-
nary bow in front.

Senator Bruce and Senator BOgy.

Blanche K. Bruce, whose signature
as Register OF the Treasury now graces
every National bank bill, was very pop
ular while he was in the Senate, al
though he is Of African descent. I'm
obtrusive, attentive to business, and
modest, he conquered the prejudices
against his race and was treated with
marked courtesy by his associates. One
day after he had been Il Senator for
two years or more, Senator Bogy, the
aristocratic descendant OF one of the
old French families of St. Louis, took
seat by his side, saying: MIR. Bruce,
| have bill here l want you to vote
for 1t is one in which | have great
personal interest. 1t has nothing po-
itical in it. Look at it and tell me
what you think Bruce laughed as
he said: Senator Bogy, l hope We
shall arrange this more satisfactorily
than our last business transaction. "
Our last transaction? What do you
mean?' Don't you remember meet
ing me before my coming to the Sen
ate?' Most decidedly, no. Il think
| can refresh your memory, Senator.
Some twenty years ago you were one
day running down Olive street in a
hurry to catch a steamer. You were
carrying a very heavy valise. The day
was very hot Don't you remember
the colored boy who came up and Of
fered to carry the valise down to the
levee for quarter? You ran along
with the boy. Soon the wharfboat
dock was reached. The boat was just
swinging out You ran and jumped on
board. You called for the valise. The
colored boy put the valise' behind his
back and called for his quarter. You
hunted, tished out a quarter and tossed
it ashore. but the gap was too wide to
toss the valise. The captain had to
stop the boat and back up before you
could get your yalise. Do you remem-
Der that?' We'll, should say do. !"
Il was that colored boy. Ben: Per-
