The Stops of an Organ,

With such important functions as the
liver, are of course productive of Sc
rious bodily disturbance. When it
relaxes its secretive and distributive
activity, bile gets into the blood, and
tinges the skin and white of the eyes
with yellow, the bowels becomes con-
stipated, the tongue coated, the breath
sour. Then come headaches, vertigo
and congestion of the organ, accom-
panied with pain in it's vicinity or
under the right shoulder blade. Shall
blue pill be the remedy sought? No,
for mercury in any form is pernicious.
What then? Experience indicates
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as the
true remedy for inactivity of the liver.
1t not only relaxes the bowels without
pain, but has direct stimulating eff
feet upon the hepatic gland itself, the
seat and origin of the trouble. All
malarial complaint involves disorder
of the liver, and of these the Bitters is
the most popular curative. 1t also
conquers dyspepsia, nervousness,
rheumatism and kidney troubles.

THE Houston Post is entirely in err
ror in the following, referring to tt Q
assertion of this paper, that the author
of the St. Louis libel was a democrat
seeking to prevent Cleveland's NOM
ination:
"The LIGHT should have awaited
developments before giving place to
the above. The authorship of the
scandal has been traced to Boston
republican preacher and an attache of
the New York Tribune. The preacher
has rendered an abject apology for his
part in the dirty work"
The LIGHT referred to the St. Louis
pamphlet, in terms that could not be
misunderstood by any one who de-
sired to understand. The authorship
of that pamphlet was attributed, at
st. Louis, by delegates to the conven-
ton, to some democratic enemy of
Cleveland seeking to prevent his NOM
nation, and steps were taken to dis
cover the author that he might be
prosecuted for libel. His name is as
much or more of a mystery than is
that of the man who wrote the Junius
letters. The LIGHT stated the exact
truth in the paragraph which the
Post artfully comments upon as above.
The letter written by fool clergyman
at the east, to which the Post refers,
has no more resemblance to the st.
Louis pamphlet, to which the LIGHT
referred, than little niger has to

CHrcAGo, June 3.-Mrs. Elizabeth
Lowe Watson, who is known in San
Francisco az The Little Minister" lee
tured before large audience at McVick-
er's Theater this evening on "Psychics
and Religion" She did not wish to
be understood as claiming supernatural
power, all she knew of her powers of
speech was that she was dependent upon
influences that always accompany her to
the rostrum. Her sermon was based
upon the infallible truths of nature.
When men search for truth, they always
60 to nature, she declared; when
they seek to benefit their physical beings
they always go to her storehouse to study.
Mon have learned through ages of griev-
GUS suffering and misery that to run con-
tray to natures laws is to bring upon
themselves disaster. The glimpses Of d.
vinity gained by men are but apprehen-
Bions Of tie truths of nature.
