AZ the nublic we'll KNOWS. there is

AS the public well knows, there is a
great moralist In New York named
Anthony Comstock, Secretary of the
Society for the Suppression Of Vice,
who has attracted a great deal of
attention by his prosecution of art for
sale or on exhibition. He has an ap-
pointment of Postoffice Inspector,
which enables him to look out for
obscene matter passing through the
mails, and to nose into everybody's
mail matter that falls under his sus-
picion. We ask prominent men in
politics, religion and benevolence, to
send for specimen copy of the De-
cember number of THE Public Herald,
706 Chestnut St., Phila., Pa, and es.
pecially the Y. M, c. Associations and
public reading rooms. They will find
the W oridly side of Comstockism ex-
posed and some things too indecent
for publication. He fiourishes carnally
and financially by his anti-vice stock
in trade.

WHAT AM | TO DOT

The symptoms of Biliousness are un-
happily but too we'll known. They differ
in different individuals to some extent.
A Bilious man is seldom breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning. His tongue will hardly bear
inspection at any time if it is not white
and furred. it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often Hemmorrhoids or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or fatu-
lence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this if not effect
a cure try Green's august Flo,cer. it cost
but trifle and thousands attest its eff
cacy.

THE TRAMP QUESTION.-We have
before Us an article on tramps from
Humane Citizen, in reply toa "Rail-
road Man." 1t is very courteous and
able defense of the bright side of the
question, and gives instances of perso-
nal observation where tramps refused
drink, were willing to work, and APP
peared worthy but unfortunate part
of the human family. We should like
to print it but for its length and our
want ofspace, and feeling that tramps
willnot be much benefited or injured by
what can be said for or against them.
Their lot seems to be unalterable. The
State, religion and society have their
hands full in keeping their own condi-
ton above reproach. Humane Citi-
zen" makes some good points -" 1t
is fact that thousands of people who
are not tramps do not earn their liv-
ing by the sweat Of their brow, but
live in way respectable in appear
:ance but dishonest IN reality" "Ihe
great cause of Labor will not he exalt-
ed by the proposition to work for
board and lodging" Having already
promised tramp some space this
week, we hope that will close the de-
bate.
We have no particular love for
tramps and no special grievance
against them, remembering our first
beginning and last end, and that we
are born but not dead yet. Our sorest
injuries come from more pretentious
people than tramps, and our greatest
errors are against better people than
ourselves. Tramps and kings are
from the same mould, but no two cast
ings were ever exactly alike.
