a Bargain in Corner Lots

is what most men desire, but to keep from
filling grave in cemetery lot ere half
your days are numbered, always keep q
supply of DR.. Pierce's "Golden Medical
Discovery" by you. When the first symp
toms of consumption appear lose no time in
putting yourself under the treatment of this
invaluable medicine. 1t cures when nothing
else will. Possessing, as 1t does, ten times
the virtue Of the best cod liver oil, 1t is not
only the cheapest but far the pleasantest to
take. 1t purlles and enriches the blood,
strengthens the system, cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions and other humors. By
lruUpists

Hon. T. p. O'Connor, member of parlia-
ment, has just recently published work on
the pending Irish question and especially
the r.iation of Gladstone and Parnell to the
great controversy. The volume is specially
prepard for American circulation, and
there is no one who Is better fitted, than
Mr.. 0'Connor, to present the case of Ire
land, and especially the history Of the
present movement before the American
public. His vigorous and picturesque pen
makes everything he writes lucid, interest
ing and effective; and he has had the ad-
vantage of himself taking prominent and
honorable part in many of the scenes he so
graphically describes.
Those persons who have desire to
thoroughly inform themselves on this alb
sorbing question should have copy of the
work.
Mrs. Samuel Galloway, wife of ex-POst-
master Galloway. of Tippecanoe City, is in
the city canysssing for the work and our
citizens will have an opportunity to pur-
chase this exposition of the Irish cause.

The west is making great impression in
New York in every way, not merely in the
stock market and the produce market, but in
social life They have ffeer nature, ad-
vance more directly upon their objects, get in
with people quicker, and waste no time in
mere fastidiousness. In this world those
people get along the best who are the least re-
specters of persons There is no society on
the globe where toady is not conternptible.
Looking over the general area Of human
nature, one finds that with a scoundrel he can
deal understandingly, with a drunkard he
can make allowances, but the individual who
splits hairs between persons for reasons SO in
finitesimally small that nobody can get to the
bottom of them, generally becomes a monster
of smallness and selfishness, peculiar as these
terms may seem to You. | have known men
to conduct newspapers and TO keep themselves
in perpetual stew for fear they are giving
too much conspicuousness to this or that man
who might be under the ban--George Alfred
Townsend in Boston Globe.

WAKE OF THE BATTLE.

Jufferings Of the Confederate Wounded
Described by an Eyewitness.
A Federal soldier once said to me: Il was
always sorry for your wounded; they never
seemed 10 get any care" The remark was
extreme, bit there Was too much justice in it.
There was little mitigation OF hardship to our
unfortunate armies We were fond of calling
them STartans, and they were but too truly
called upon TO endure a Spartan system Of
neglect and privation. They were always i'll
fed and ill-cared for. 1t would have been
possible at this time, one would think, to send
a courier back to inform the town and be-
speak what comforts it could for the ap-
preaching wounded But here they were,
unannounced on the brick pavements, and
the first thing was to find roofs to cover
them.
Men ran for keys and opened the long,
empty shops and unused rooms; other people
got brooms and stirred up the dust of ages;
then armies Of children began to appear with
bundles of hay and straw, taken from any
bodys stables. These were hastily disposed
Of in heaps, and covered with blankets-the
soldiers own, or else one begged or borrowed
from anywhere. On these improvised beds
the sufferers were placed, and the next ques-
ton was Of the proper dressing OF their
wounds No surgeons were To he seen A
few men, detailed as nurses, had come, but
they were incompetent, Of course. Our wo-
men set bravely to work and washed away
the blood or stanched it as well as they could,
where the jolting of the long, rough ride had
disarranged the hasty binding done on the
battlefield But what did they know Of
wounds beyond a cut finger or boil' Yet
