The season is now advancing when
coughs, colds, pneumonia and similar af'
fections are prevalent. 1t then behooves
not only those subject to throat and
complaints, but all who regard
health and comfort as worth the trouble,
to accept that ounce of prevention and
save pound of cure. The ounce of pre-
vention is to be found in 4-Eyed Browns
Barley Malt whiskey. Try it.

There are many good stores in Cork, but
few like the American ones you would find in
a city of 100000. Their storerooms are, as a
rule, small, and their stock of goods meager
The smaller stores tumble their goods into the
windows, with no attempt at tasteful arrange
ment, and the sign Of small grocery store is
a window filed with greasy hams and vege-
tables. Them markets, or butcher shops,
all have one wide window opening on to the
sidewalk, and the ledge of this window is the
meat counter, on which the cuts are carved
and weighed In the better class of butcher
shops this counter is a marble slab; in the
poorer it is of wood.
Saloons in Cork are well patronized, and
you will find both women and men drinking
at them They are known here as spirit and
wine stores" and have signs of this kind.
Another curious store here is "The Potato
Store" where potatoes alone are sold. The
potato is the staple food of the lower classes,
and you will see these stores everywhere.
Potatoes are worth now about the same as in
America. Those have eaten are very fine,
and from the general health of the people |
see there can be no better diet i'll the world.

Congressional Prayer.

Rev. Milburn. Chaplain of the
House of Representatives. delivered
the following prayer at the opening
OF one of the sess ons of the House.
Give ear, oh God of Jacob, and
awaken us to see the danger which
threatens the civilized world-a revo-
luton more tremendous than any OF
which history tell. in which the scenes
of the Reign OF error may be enact
ed in every capital of Europe and
America. For long the few have
mastered the many, because they UNI
derstood the sccret--the tools to Them
that can use them; but now the many
have learned the secret Of organ "a
ton, drill and dynamite. Rouse the
rich of the world to understand that
the time has come for grinding, sell
fish monopoly to cease, that corp 'ra-
tions may get souls in them with JUS
tice, honor, conscience and human
kindness Teach the rich men OF
this country that great fortunes are
lent them by Thee not TOT palaces To,
found private collections of art. to
stock wine cellars. to keep racing
studs and yachts and the company of
hostiers, grooms and jockeys, pool
sellers and bookmakors. Teach them,
oh God, that it is Thee who has given
them power to get these fortunes,
that it is to prove them, t. know what
Is in their hearts, whatever they will
keep. Thy commandments or no,
add that those commandments are
"rhou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart and thy nei9hbor
as thyself" If the rich men OF our
land keep these commandments the
roor will follow the example, and we,
at least, will be saved from the days
of tribu alton that are fast coming on
all the world. Help Us, o God, and
save u.s.
The Chaplain is blind, but he APP
pears to follow sin round IN its fash.
ionable garb of the day, and assault
it in high places vigorously. The
majority of our ministers are occupi-
ed and content in attacking its cast
off old clothes, while the monster they
battle against fourishcs all round
them, seemingly unohserved.

A REWARD FOR BRAVERY.
A Cedar City Saloon Keeper to Whom
the Downing Law Does not Apply.
From the Jefferson City Tribune.

From the Jefferson City Tribune.
There are a number of curious old
laws still in existence in Missouri,
one of which in particular will give
the prohibitionists pain. In the early
part of the Mexican war Absalom
Hughes, of Galloway county, was
wounded by a cannon ball at the bat
tie of Sacramento. He was struck
below the knees and had both legs
broken. The general assembly which
convened in 1S49 passed a special
law granting him the privilege OF
keeping a dram shop at Cedar City,
Galloway county, during life, without
being subject to this license. This
was passed as a recognition of his
service. Mr.. Hughes at once opened
q saloon and has never yet closed it.
He is now an old man, but is not as
badly crippled as one might expect,
considering the terrible wound he
received. The Downing law does moi
interfere with his special privilege
Although he has been running
saloon in Cedar City for over thirty
seven years few people outside of hi:
neighborhood know that he is eXemp
from paying license.
