We do not mean to intimate that all the
Bo-ca1led remedies for dyspepsia are
valueless, but human credulity is so
strong, that some INSCRIPTIONS persons
trade upon the fears OF the weak and de-
bilitated. Among the things which appeal
80 strongly to this weakness are Bitters.
The very name Is in their favor. The
mode of life OF the average American Is
OF such character, that he is constantly
in need OF tonic. lie is rushed at his
business, swallows his meal hastily and
without any Thought as TO the capacity
Of his stomach for digestion, takes little
rest, and necessarily feels hipped; is sub
ject 20 headache. and takes often a gloomy
view OF things generally. In such cases
he resorts TO bitters, under the delusion
that they will act on tho secretions OF the
stomach and give the system new strength
and energy. The writer recently pur-
chased samples Of four OF the most widely
advertised bitters In the market. and the
simple chemical analysis 70 which they
were subjected showed that they con-
tanned about 90 per cent. (fhe amount the
G0yernmentallows)o Of the most poisonous
aud adulterated alcohol, and that the re-
eiduum consisted or various foreign sub
stances, which were simply added as flaw
Oring extracts, to disguise the taste OF the
original compound. The value which so
called Differs are supposed to have IS OF q
purely fictitious character. In fact. in time
they irritate and injnre the delicate mem
brano OF the stomach, so vitiate the taste
that the palate soon cannot distinguish
between good and bad These decoctionS
are consumed principally by the debilitar-
ed, the cony alescent, the depressed and
particularly by aged people afd weak
women aud others to whom a stimulaut
is Indispensable. Now, while alcohol.
especially in the form OF whisky, is ac-
knowledged to be the best known stimu-
liant, and Is prescribed and used by PHYS
clans for this purpose everywhere. we
can't conceive why people will insist upon
taking the alcohol in the form of a de-

The Now Electoral Count Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The Electoral
Count bill reported back to the Senate to-
day from the Committee on Privileges
and Elections, to which it had been re-
committed, is amended in. sections 2, 3
and 4. Section retains the substance of
the same section in the original bill in
troduced by Mr.. Edmunds, but it has
been slightly modified. Originally the
bill provided that leach State may, pur-
suant to its laws" &c. 1t was urged with
respect to this that Congress had moth
ing to do with the granting of authority
to States to pass laws, and the section
was changed in that respect. Section 2
of the new bill embodies the substance
of the views expressed by Senator Evarts
in his remarks upon the bill. The pivot
al feature of this section, as compared
with section of the original bill, is a
provision requiring the transmission to
the Secretary of State Immediately after
the appointment of electors of certiti-
cate setting forth the names of the cleo
tors and the canvass of the number of
votes given or cast for each. By this
means Congress will be enabled to take
cognizance at once of the result of the
election, whereas now it has no cogniZ-
ance of the matter until the day arrives
for opening and counting the votes. The
Secretary of State is also required TO
publish these certificates in full in such
newspapers as he shall designate, and at
the first meeting of Congress he is TO
transmit copies to each House of Con-
gress.

Employer and Employed.

Rev. DR.. Washington GLADDEN. has an
article in the March Century on "The
Strength and Weakness of Socialism, in
which he says: Instead, therefore, of
pulling down the existing order, as the
socialists propose, the thing to be done is
to enlarge its foundations. They are
right in saying that an industrial system
whose sole motive power is self.interest
and whose sole rcgulaiive principle is
competition will end in pandemonium
but they are foolish in thinking that hu
manity will thrive under system which
discards or cripples these self regarding
forces. What is needed is the calling in
to action of the good will which is equal
ly a part of human nature. This also
must be made an integral part OF the in.
dustrial system; it must be the business
of the employer to promote the welfare
of his workmen, and the business of the
workmen to promote the interest of theii
employer. The organization of labor
must be such that the one class cannot
prosper without directly and perceptibly
increasing the prosperity of the other
This is the true remedy for the evils of
which the socialists complain. The re.
form needed Is not the destruction but
the Christianization of the present or.
der"

The Culture of earn.

Nothing has been said for q long while
concerning carp. This fish does not re-
quire much culture, for they will thrive
where other fish would die.'s.They multi
ply more rapidly than any other and
make better progress in stagnant water
than in swift-running streams. They re-
quire very little food other than what
they get in the pond. Thousands of
young carp were distributed in Tennes-
see four years so, and in this way many
ponds were supplied throughout the
State. While a small number of persons
who received young carp in the general
distribution have been forced to abandon
them on account of badly conducted
/ ponds, yet there are to-day great many
ponds devoted exclusively to the culture
! of this fish.
Carp should never be placed in the
same pond with game fish, as the latter
will eat them as fast as they can be drop
ped into the water. There are numbers
of families in the State who derive their
entire fish supply from their carp ponds.
The culture Of carp, however, on any ex.
tended scale for profit, has never been
, attempted in Tennessee. This is a mat
ter of surprise, considering the small cost
that would attach to such an uRdertak-
ing.

Anoat In a FLORIDA wilderness.

My good friend, Dr. Battey. comforted
me by telling of his trip to 'Titusville,
away down south of this, on little
steamer that was the only one that piled
that river, and how for many miles it
steamed along in narrow windings, hem
med in on either side by watery wilder
ness, with logs and tussocks here and
there and alligators summing their scaly
backs and he got to thinking about how
if the boat should take fire, what then.
He could almost jump to the bank or q
log or a tussock, but what next After
the boat was burned what would become
of him, pitiful spectacle sitting on a
rotten stump with his feet in the water
and waiting for rescue. No road, no
telegraph, no other boat to come, and in
about twenty-four hours the people of
Sanford would begin to wonder why the
boat did not come back, and in another
twenty four houls they would send up a
skiff or something, and long before it ar
rived the alligators would grab him un-
less he waded to tree and climbed it and
got in fork, and even then tired nature
would go to sleep and he would fall into
an alligator's mouth at last. And he said
it all worried him so he would have Civ
en- S100to be safe at the end of his journ-
ey.--"BW Arp" in Atlanta Constitution.

Public Education.

The report of the United States com.
missioner Of education, which is now be-
ing distributed, contains many facts and
figures of interest to the public The
report shows that the public schools of
the country include 10,78s, 1872 youth and
Its private schools COG, 517 out of total
school population of 1850, ,463, showing
that OF per cent, of the school population
of this country is receiving education
ITO instruct these boys 307 ,sO4 teachers,
three -tifths of them female, are required.
The income of the schools in 1884 was
$110, ,567 ,567, the expenditure $103, 949,
52S, and the value of the school property
$240, ,635, 4l6. For public education pur
poses. the States eXpend one third as
much as the entire general government.
The commissioner reports a gratifyingin-
crease in The number of schools, in the
south, in the. attendance, in the number
of teachers, in their pay and in their gen.
cral standing and ability.
In the sixteen southern States there are
4,216,9 1926 white children of a school age
and 9, 2,546, 44S enrolled; 2,032 ,926 colored
children, of whom 1,002, 313 are enrolled.
The amount expended for school pur.
poses is $17 .053, ,467. To overcome the
difficulty encountered in securing teach
eri, 257 normal schools, with 1865 instruc-
tors, have been established Attention is
called by the commissioner to the large
increase Of school funds in the south, but
Notwithstanding this and other evidence
of prosperity there is need, in his judg-
ment, of larger provision for the instruc-
ton of the illterate of the south than the
States are by themselves able to make.

Suicide Among the MexIcans.

The lowest ratio OF suicides to popula
ton in the Old World is said to be 20 per
100000 annually, among the Slavs of
Southern Europe. The first notable at
tempt to do any thing in this branch of
statistics in Mexico was recently made by
the Academy of Medicine in the City of
Mexico, and the result is published by
its organ, showing the percentage there
to be only 3 in 100000 The ease Of
obtaining living on the low scale com
mon there, the illiteracy protecting the
masses srom the problems of civilization,
the gay temper of the people, and their
profound veneration for the Catholic
Church. which put its curse on the sui
eide, are offered as reasons for this low
percentage. When the Mexicans rise to
the level of their betters, learn to think
for themselves, and regard the Catholic
Church as the embodiment of lot of su-
perstitions merely, they will proceed to
murder themselves, perhaps at a rate
equalling that prevailing among the gay
and gifted and cultured Parisians. =.

True Courtesy.

Many people go mourning all their
lives over some personal defect, perhaps
in itself slight, but made important to
them by careless remarks often not in.
tended unkindly, 1t may be a cross eye,
a wen, birth-mark, weak eyes, lameness,
deafness, anything that makes them a
little peculiar, even If not very markedly
so. Now if others would but ignore the
defect, not question about it, the unfort
innate one would have nothing to bear
but the actual inconvenience, which,
whether serious or not, is quite enough
So don't ask the one,legged or one
armed man where he lost his limb. Don't
ask the mother of that ,epileptic child
whether she thinks his mind is much af.
fected yet Don't offer to read aloud for
the weak-eyed one, or press footstools
and supports upon tho feeble but young
hearted grandparent who tries to think
himself as hale as ever. Don't draw your
chair close to the partially deaf friend,
put your lips to his ear, draw long
breath, and scream some commonplace
remark in tone that startles him and
draws the notice of all present. Neither
make bewildering signs and grimaces and
mouth your words absurdly, but speak
naturally with no apparent effort, slowly,
carefully, and only little louder A
trial or two will enable you to accommo-
date your voice to his ear, without max
ing you ridiculous and your friend un,
happy. Yet do not ignore him because
it may require little pains to make your
self understood; better take a little troub-
le than to leave him to feel himself neg
lected or cortemned because of his infrm.
ity This trouble is almost the only one
for which there is not usually quick
sympathy, People are more apt to be i'm
patient with it, or to laugh at it. Those
who would weep to see the blind cropping
helplessly, laugh at the involuntary mis-.
takes or the apparent dullness Of the
deaf Therefore the blind are usually
more happy under their privation than
the deaf, because they are not humiliated
by contemptuous impatience, or covert
ridicule, or cool neglect
There is no use in saying to them,
"You must not mind it" They do mind
it, they cannot help "minding" il. We
are so constituted that our happiness de
pends very much on what others think of
us. If you have deformed, shy or pc
culiar child, do not neglect, scold or dis
courage him. Give such ones double
love, double care; have them cured if
possible, at whatever cost of toll or pri.
vation. Teach them to be so lovable that
their defects may be forgotten. Give
them every advantage of society and ed
ucation in your reach cultivate whatever
special gift, grace or aptitude they may
have; so shall they have confidence and
self respect, and be fitted for useful and
happy lives. Mrs. b. M Conklia.

bear on their face the impress of an in

FACT AND FANCY.

AMERICAN JOURNALS.
Tho mWilln Cure.

The faith cure, will cure and mind cure
probably all mean about the same thing.
The many instances of quackery shake
ones faith somewhat in the marvellous
cures" recorded, but it must be admit
ted that very respectable array of evi.
dence has been collected. Probably no
thinking person disputes that the mind
has powerful influence over the body
as instanced by the remarkable deeds of
people under strong excitement which
they could not possibly do under ordina-
ry circumstances, Doubtless too, nearly
all remember the we'll known case of
criminal who was killed by his imagina-
tion in this way the man was condemned
to death, and certain medical men got
leave to try simple experiment on him;
he was laid on the operating table and
led to suppose that small incision had
been made in an artery from which his
life-blood was yelling drop by drop; he
could hear the dropping, which, howev-
er, was only the trickling of water so ar
ranged as to deceive him, but so strong
| was the impression that he was bleeding
to death that he did actually die in lit
tie while, although he was well man at
the beginning. And who of us have not
seen people who did not seem to be very
i'll, decline rapidly and die, apparently
because they gave up and made up their
minds that they were going TO diey Hosts
of people go to bed with slight illness
and never get up again; while others ap-
parently at death S door seem to recover
from sheer force Of will and the determi-
nation to get well, much to the surprise
of their relatives and friends.
Probably most of these faith cures
have their rise in the will of the patient.
He determines that he will get well, and
the faith that he is going to is pretty sure
to come with this determination. The
so-called doctors" of this school (O may
do good so far as they can inspire the
will and faith of their patients.
Certain it is that the mind has powers
of which we little dream as yet. they are
not miraculous. but superior to our pres
ent knowledge and understanding. But
knowing how great an influence the mind
has over the body, we can do a great deal
toward improving our own health and
that of our friends. Observing the known
laws of health the best we can, ceasing to
pet every little ache or pain, supposing it
to mean that we are going to die of heart
disease or cancer, determining that we
will he well, and interesting ourselves in
the cheerful affairs of life instead of the
sombre affairs of death, we might all
stand pretty fair chance to live to a
good old age. And as far as our friends
are concerned, we can at least refrain
| from telling them that they look sick,
which is very apt to make them sick, and
can restore their spirits by cheerful con
versation and predictions.

How Poor Mile. Rose Sang in Death

nails and surrounded by silver ribbon,

Its history. The parchment-if it can be

Rose Gallon, once in the service of a
