TILpEN's GRAVE.

It is q peaceful country graveyard. The
thoughts of the Sage of Greystone turned to
that in his old days, rather than to the more
pretentious cemeteries nearer New York city
His family were Presbyterians.
Greystone is a beautiful country seat on q
Hudson river hill, above the village of Yon.
kers, nine miles from New York city. Mr..
Tilden's city home, at Gramercy park, in New
York, was a luxurious and beautiful man
sion. 1t had been originally two houses.
which were made over into one. Its choicest
treasure is its vast library Of $4,000 volumes,
which New York city hopes to possess as a
legacy from the sage.
At the age of So Mr.. Tilden was n most sue
cessful lawyer. He became rich in railroad
and mining enterprises before being elected
governor of New York, i'll 1875. His estate is
estimated at $1,000, 600, to be divided among
mora than twenty heirs.

Cure For Pies.

Piles areIfrequentIy preceded by a sense
of weight in the back, loins and lower part
Of the abdomen, causing the patient to
suppose he has some affection of the kid

symptoms of indigestion are present, as
6atulency, uneasiness of the stomach, etc.
A moisture, like Precipitation, producing a
disagreeable itching, after getting warm is
q common attendant. Blind, bleeding
and itching Piles yield at once to the ap.
plication Of Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected,
absoi bing the tumors, allaying the intense
itching, and effecting q permanent cure.

or without his consent. Rival candidates
will undoubtedly breathe more freely now,
old and intirm as the Sage of Greystone
was. He was the shrewdest political organ
i2er of his time.
Rumor had the distinguished old man be-
trothed to more women than was the luck of
any other bachelor of his time, yet he lived
and died single. There is not even the record
of an early love Disappointment, such as in
vested President Buchanan with romantic
interest, to gid Tilden's blunt unvarnished
bachclnrhood. He appears to have remained
single because he liked it best that way. Had
he chosen lie might nave been a bachelor
president. There is every reason to believe
that he might have died president had he ac-
ccpted the Democratic nomination in 1884.
He could have had it also i'll 1880. AS it was,
lie was Il president maker, and perhaps that
was MS much consolation to him as having
the office for himself. At any rate, it was
far less bother. His letter of declination in
1884 gave the nomination to Mr.. Cleveland.

Inevery yard men are employed to measure
the hops and put them in sacks for trans
portation to the dry house. When the meas
urer appears with his basket the pickers begin
a hasty examination of their bins and hur.
riedly remove all leaves and rubbish. Then
the pickers receive tickets denoting the num-
Der of bushels picked, the hops are taken from
the yard to the dry house and there dried, then
pressed into bales for shipment. The dry
house is usually a roomy structure, contain
ing kilns for drying, a storage loft, and q
space underneath for the press. The fires are
kept going night and day while the picking
lasts,fo hops require about fourteen hours
of drying, and they must be put on the kiln
as soon as possible after they come from tho
field. They are first spread evenly over the
floor of the kim md bleached by burning
