cellence in all diseases, and its no9as of
erandi, are fully explained in DIR. Hart

pleasure in testifying to your medicines.
I have used about one bottle and half,
and can say l am almost new man.
Have had the catarrh about twenty years.
Before l knew what it was, had settled on
the lungs and breast, but can now say l am
almost well. Was in the army; could get
no medicine there that would relieve me-"
Col. E. Finger, Ashland, Ohio, writes:
am happy to say have used several
bottles of your medicine called PERUNA,
and my health has been greatly improved
by it. l cheerfully recommend PERUNA
to all who suffer with heart trouble, as
being an invaluable medicine"
Rev. ]. M. Ingling, Altamont, ILL.,,

with me has been using your PERUNA
for kidney disease, which has afflicted him
for forty years and could get no relief un-
til he saw your medicine. 1 induced him

much better that she will never quit its
use until she is entirely well. 1t has won

Constitutional Catarrh.

No single disease has entailed more suffering
or hastened the breaking up of the constitu>
tion than catarrh; the sense of smell. taste,
sight, hearing, the human voice, the mind-one
or more and sometimes all, yield to its destruc-
tive influences; the poison distributed through
out the system by It attacks every vital force,
and breaks up the most robust Of constitutions;
ignored because but little understood by most
physicians, those suffering from 1t have little
hope to be relieved of 1t this side of the grave;
II is time then that the popular treatment OF
this terrible disease by remedies within the
reach Of all passed into hands at once compe-
tent and trustworthy; the new and hitherto
untried method adopted by DR.. Sanford in the
preparation of his Radical Oure has won the
hearty approval of thousands; it Is 1nstsnta-
neous in affording relief In all head colds,
sneeZing, snuf1tng and obstructed breathing,
and rapidly removes the most oppressive
symptoms, clearing the head, sweetening the
breath. restoring the sense of smell, taste and
hearing, and nutraliZing the constitutional
tendency of the disease towards the lungs

He is wise man who needs no advise, bu
he who is ready to listed and act on good advice
is wiser one. The world has suffered fearfully
from the blunders of those who were unwilling
to accept advice from any one. No man knows
so much that he cannot learn little nor,
from others. We cannot see all there is to b(
seen and known of subject or work; the very
things that are hidden from us may be knowr
to others. Ask and try to gain knowledge from
all and accept advice from any one capabal o.

Of emergency may be found by taking the ad-
vice of another.

UMBRELLAS will last longer if when
wet they are placed handle downward
to dry. Tbe moisture falls from the
edges of the frame and the fabric dries
uniformly. If stood handle upward,
which is commonly the case, the top of
the umbrella holds the moisture, owing
to the lining underneath the ring, and
therefore takes long time to dry, thus
injuring the silk or other fabric with
which it is covered. This is the prime
cause of the top wearing out soon.
er than the other part. Umbrella cases,
too, are responsible for the rapid wear
of the silk. The constant friction causes
the holes that appear so provokingly
early. When not in use, leave the um
brella loose; when wet, never leave it
open to dry. as the tense condition th us
produced makes the silk stiff, and then
it will soon crack.

By living ourselves simply, honestly and
purely, by keeping our own standards high, Our

Making Capital for the Republicans

Colonel Morrison is the most incon>
sistent of all the inconsistent free trad
ers. Yesterday in the House he called
up and advocated the proposition of the
committee on rules to so change the
rules as to permit the House to attach
to every general pension bill provision
to raise by taxation the revenue neces-
sary to meet the expenditure proposed
by the bill. In bis speech. he attempted
to show that the pension bills now pend
ing would require the expenditure of
$22O,GO0,O $50, 100000 to $75,-
100000 being required the first year-and
that there was no money with which to
statement from the free trade leader, in
the face of his constant attempts to re-
duce the tariff and cut down the reve-
nues, earned for him a well-merited re-
buke, which was administered by Reed,
of Maine, Mckinley. of Ohio, Hiscock, of
New York, aud other friends of protect
tion. 1t was clearly shown that back of
this glaringly inconsistent proposition
there was deeper and more reprehensi-
BILE motive. The Republicans showed
that this was only scheme by which
the Democratic enemies of the pension
system sought to make pension legisla-
tion odious. Not satisfied with the per.
sistent opposition of President Cleve+
land, which finds expression through his
veto messages sent to Congress, they
seek to load every bill down with an OBJ
noxious rider. hoping thereby to defeat
by trickery measures which they have
not the courage to oppose openly. The
Democrats of the present Congress, with
the assistance of their thick-recked Pres
ident, are fast making Republican polit>

The road to home happiness lies over small
stepping stones. Slight circumstances are the
stumbling blocks in families. The prick of a
pin, says the proverb, is enough to make an
empire insipied. The tenderer the feeling the
more painful the wound A cold, unkind word
checks and withers the blossom of the dearest
love, as the most delicate rings of the vine are
troubled by the faintest breeze. The misery Of
life is born of a chance observation. If the true
history of quarrels, public and private, were
honestly written it would be silenced by an up
roar of derision.

Stanton and Mcclellan.

The recently published letters of the
late Secretary of War Edwin u. STAN
ton. will go far to cause a reversal of
feeling in those who have viewed with
censure his bearing toward Gen. Me-
Clellan. 1t is evident that Stanton was
rs siDgle-minded in his devotion to the
Union as any man of his epoch. He had
splendid abilities, vast energy, an in
domitable will, and beyond doubt, he
was a mighty power in the dark days OF
the late war.
The questions between him and Gen
Mcclellan were purely questions of obe'
dience to orders. Lincoln, taking the
advice of certain generals in Washing
toD, in whose wisdom and experience be
had confidence, gave certain orders tC
Mcclellan. They were transmitted
through Stanton. Secretary of War. The
President is, under the Constitution, the
commander-iD-chief of the army and
navy, and it was McClellan's duty tC
obey. 1t matters not one whit whether
these orders were judicious or not. II
may even be conceded that McClellan's
policy was the true one, and Mr.. Lin.
coins mistaken one. Yet, this would
not justify a disobedience. or even g
slow and hesitatiDg obedience. Yet it i:
charged, that Mcclellan not only me-
elected to obey the orders of Gen. Scott
bGt even those of the President. If ht
had been victorious, his neglect might
have been forgiven; but he suffered bit
ter defeat in his "ehsnge of base" Tht
whole campaign was failure, and in ;
short time the theater of the war wa
shifted to the north of the Potomac.
1t is interesting to note in the recent
ly published papers emanating from
Confederate officers that Lee and Jack
son and others held Mcclellan in yer!
slight respect. They calculated upon hi
hesitation, his unreadiness to seize upor
the strategic advantages at hand, and hii
inability to form new plans when hi
chessboard plans of battle were rudely
upset by an impetuous attack. This i:
the more interesting, because the opin.
ions of the leading Southern generals a:
to McClellaD's abilities as general CO
incide very closely with those of Lin
coin and Stanton, though these opin'
ions were formed from opposite points
of view. There would probably have
been less difference of opinion among
the people of the North as to his merits
had it not been for the fact that the can
didacy of Mcclellan for the presidency
against Lincoln had given political
bias to the popular judgment. The dis
placement of Mcclellan was regarded as
a political move on the part of Lincoln
and Stanton, whereas it seems to have
been purely military and patriotic. As
the animosities of the war pass away
these things appear more clearly. The
character of Lincoln has long ago risen
above the clouds of prejudice, and bis
greatness, his wisdom and his goodness
are universally recognized. Stanton. too,
is rapidly gaining juster and fuller
recognition Of his greatness and his em>
inent services.-Balt. American.
