A Mothers LOve-A Practical
Illustration Of Hts Power.

A mothers love What potent thing
it is 1t will melt the heart of the most
hardened criminal, when no other influ-
cnce would be effectual. No one but a
mother knows its full meaning, but every
one can appreciate it if they will. 1t is
known, though, that it means sleepless
nights, care, inconvenience, and, if ne
cessary, want, hardship and death. But
the subject has been too eloquently
treated by the sweetest poets and the
abest writers to furnish an essay for
these columns. Too many practical IL
Illustrations occur il. every day life for it
to be dwelt upon, Sc that it is unnecessary
to speak of the subject further in order
to make the reader understand the full
meaning of what is to follow.
Mrs. Henry Schualen, of Ashland,
KY, writes that her daughter has been
cured of deafness which resulted from
chronic catarrh. She tells how she had
lost all hope of her daughter her ideal
being cured, and how overjoyed she is at
the result. After trying many remedies,
she says PERUNA brought a cure, and
that the daughters hearing is restored.
She concludes, by speaking in the most
fattering terms of PERUNA, and then de-
scribes in the most lovely manner the
happiness it has brought her, and reviews
the distress she experienced while her
daughter was afflicted.
DR.. A. R. Ong, Martins Ferry, O.,
writes Il have large trade on your
PERUNA. Think it is grand remedy"
Mr.. Robert c. Hannah, Tolesborough,
Lewis county, KY, writes: II write to in
form you of the great benefit received
by the use of your medicines, PERUNA
and MANALIN. / had been low spirited
and very sick for about six months with
a bad cough, and my friends thought

patent medicines, and most Of the doctors
in the vicinity and we have some as
good as you can find in the country,
but they did me no good whatever. Our
merchant, Mr.. Gillespie, insisted upon
me trying your remedies. did so, but
must say, / had little faith in them at
first; before had consumed my first
bottle, l noticed a change for the
better, and to-day / arm entirely well,
and as sound a man as there 10 in the
vicinity. credit my cure to your valu-
able remedies, PRRUNA and MANALIN,
and recommend them to all Of my
friends"

As TO MRS. GRUNDY.

The potent parsonage has been allowed
to rule too despotically in the feminine
world, and the ladies say that it is time
her tyranny received a check. But not
even Mrs. Grundy has dared to speak
against the value of Browns Iron Bitters
as strengthening tonic for ladies who
suffer from debility. 1t enriches the
blood and completely restores failing
health. Miss Sallie L. Paules, Wrights-
vile, Pa, was cured by Browns Iron Bit
ters of back ache, kidney trouble, and liv.
er complaint.

To those who consider themselves
mathematicians. we would ask if Dead
wood and Rapid can make more noise
owe the passing of our bullion through
their town than can be got out of a
barrel ofwhisky, how much noise would
they make if they could produce a few
ounces ofgold and silver bullion lead
City Tribune.
The question, as stated, ia not a
mathematical one. Had the price OF
the barrel of whiskey been given, and
the number of ounces Of gold and silver
stated, it would admit of ready solution
by the application Of simple mathemat-
ical rules, as it could be readily de-
termined how many barrels of whiskey
they product would purchase, and the
answer would be apparent. 1t will be
in the remote bye and bye, when either
place produces gold or silver enough in
their immediate vicinity to buy a barrel
of sou mash. Gold and silver is not a
metropolitan product, but dug out OF
mines which should have credit for
what they produce. Why not claim the
cattle on a thousand hills that are locat-
ed within a score of miles Of your
metropolitan limits?

Among other things upon which the
people Of the Hills have reason to con.
graduate themselves is the bright pros
pect that the tin mines will prove all
that has been anticipated in the many
favorable reports of experts. The de-
velopments in progress are Of the most
satisfactory character. From present
indications it may not be long before
the Black Hills will supply America
with all tie tin required.-Journal eth.
Eminently correct. Daily tests being
made here in this place settle beyond
controversy that tin abounds in endless
quantity, and Of a grade that fully war
rants the fact Of its being utilized in the
supply of the United States at no distant
day. Developments during the past
winter in this vicinity establish the fact
Of there being an area of many miles in
extent. where tin is found to exist in
vast bodies of a character that will yield
a handsome margin Of profit in its re.
duction. The Black Hills is just merg.
ing into the dawn of a tin era that will
in It's growing importance eventually
outrank all other industries, and give
to this favored land a commercial
prestige unpa ralleled in the history OF
America.

There are two excellent dailies pub
lished at Rapid City, the Republican
and the Journal, and their prospects
seem bright and encouraging. Dead
wood ridicules Rapids pretentions, and
yet if We mistake not the latter will be-
come the city of the Hills country. And
as railroads are bound to go BY and
around Deadwood, We see nothing for it
but to become a mining camp and a
deserted city, with all that desertion
implies. Deadwood can never put up
money enough to induce railroads to
come to it. The name is significant
of failure.-Ex-Governor Pennington's
Opinion.
If the ex-governor has ever extended
a compliment beyond Rapid City, in the
direction Of the Black Hills we have
failed to see it. The Yankton ring.
with headquarters at Rapid City, is still
fresh in the minds Of the people, and

that the people of the Black Hills were

spicuously the same that Indianapolis

spending the winter here. 1T is spread.
ing out too much. indianapolis lost
nearly all it's values in real estate in
that way. 1t hurts a city In two ways
in making it impossible to provide all
city improvements over such a vast
area, and in leaving a city to look per-
petually raw and unfinished, and in
| putting up a small city to such balloon
proportions that finally it will burst and
all values largely collapse with it. Over

On the west to a mile beyond Four Mile
creek on the east. l have looked the
ground all over for chances to invest
money for myself and eastern friends,
Already there is enough land set aside
for city resident purposes and plated
into lots to provide homes for 10000
people. That is more people than Des
Moines will have in 1886. You are bal
looming it too much in Des Moines.
Look out or a great deal Of it will col
lapse. You have a larger area OF
land plated in lots, city and suburban
than the city Of Chicago proper occupies,
You had better compact your city, build
all new residences on vacant lots inside
of town, pave your streets, build modern
sidewalks, and put your city in city form

you send to them for nearly everything

Moines Register.
The above sensible advice might be
very appropriately administered in
alleopathic doses to towns many hun
dred miles west of Des Moines. 1fthere
is anything that gives to a town the APP
pearance of solid permanence, it is COM
pactness, and If there is anything that
indicates a fictitious and unstable basis,
it is the sight of endless additions with
here and there Il house suggestive of the
islands in the Aegean sea-. The system
of ballooning towns in the west has
passed into a mania, and points with as.
sured prospects of railroad connection,
| with sufficient to warrant the
building of a town of a few hundred in,
h%abitants, commences to lay plans and
arrange the preliminaries for a first
class city, which invariably results il
fatal collapse, or a backset pending the
interim of the development Of hidden
resources. A single railroad connection
never made a frst-class city.

With extreme pleasure it is noted
that the entire Black Hills country is
promised a genuine boom the present
year. Money viii. come from the east
for investment in mines, in agricultural
lands and town property. Many new
enterprises and industries will be set on
foot, each giving employment to more
or less labor, while the aggregate will

necessary to 60 away from home, as is
shown by the following from the Sioux
Falls Press: "Plats have been filed on
the extension of a railroad to the top of
