ut is my observation" said Congress

times as many Republicans who are eX-
pecting offices under the next admins
tration as there were Democrats four
years ago who had similar expectations.
Take comparison from my own city

there were more than five bona ,fde
candidates for Postmaster at III fin,
while to-day there are no less than forty
Republicans, who are scrambling
among themselves for the honor of sue
ceeding the present Democratic incum-
bent. 1t is an actual fact that one of
the Republican candidates was circulat-
ing petition and requesting signatures
in his favor on the Saturday morning
after election. The Republican MEM
bers of Congress are overwhelmed with
applications, which are all the more an
noying because they must be taken care
of by the member himself from now
until March 4. One Republican men,
Der from Ohio, who used to carry his
mail from the House postoffice in his

TT EAR what the celebrated DR.. M McFarland says
- about LiUer Diseases in Northwestern Ohio.
The liver Is the largest gland of the body and the
labratory of mans whole SYSTEM and is the primary
cause of more trouble in this climate than all else
combined. So much has been said and SO much
has been suffered, and so many lives have been sac
riced to the false practice of overlooking the great
cause and doctorng its many effects, such as Rheu-
nlatism Sick Headache, Neuralgia Dropsy, ii cart
Disease and Constipation or Costiveness, and stom
ach Diseases, Dyspepsia, Indigestion, and many
effects arising from o disordered condition of The
liver And yet 1t goes on every day. Well, DR.. how
can this be helped2 will tell you how: Call at
Humphreys Drug Store, and buy for $1.0O, which
is the price of one call from your physician enough
to cure any case of liver complaint. Ask for Nc
Farland's Indian Pills. so pills in each box. Dose
pill at bedtime. Take them regular and you will
soon see where you have been wasting your time
and money. They cure every time. Remember, all
the effects disappear as WELL Do not stand in your
own light, but go at before is too late. This
is what they cure by regulating the liver: Sick
Headache, Nervous Headache, Costiveness, Rheu-
matism, Neuralgia, Piles and Stomach Diseases of
all kinds Also, Heart Troubles, dyspepsia, Chills
and Fever.

An Angel in a Car.

A newsboy took the Sixth avenue
elevated at Park place at noon yester-
day and sliding into one of the cross
seats fell asleep. At Grant street two
young women got on and took the seats
opposite the lad. Presently the young
er girl leaned over and placed her
muff under the little fellows dirty
cheek. An old gentleman in the next
seat smiled at tie act, and without say
ing anything held out quarter, with
a nod toward the boy. The girl hesi-
tated a moment and then reached for
it. The next man jnst as silently offer
ed a dime, the woman across the aisle
held ont some pennies and before she
knew It the girl with flaming cheeks
had taken money from every passenger
in that end of the car. She quietly slid
the amount into the sleeping lads
pocket, removed her muff gently from
under his head without r0using him
and got off at Twenty-third street, in
Guiding all the passengers in pretty
little inclination of the head that
seemed full Of thanks aud o common

SHOEMAKER BROS.
The School Teachers Middle.
[Steubenville Herald.l

Acting Commissioner of Common
Schools, w. s. Matthews, has issued a
circular which will cause considerable
CONSERVATION among the school teach
ers of the State. 1t is to the effect that
every teachers certificate to be valid
after January l, 1889, must have on it
physiology and hygiene as one of the
branches in which its holder has been
examined, and calls attention of Boards
of Examiners to the fact that they
should extend to teachers all possible
facilities to be examined during the
present month. 1t is thought that a
contract made prior to January |, 1889,
for teaching school would be held good
Notwithstanding the act of last winter,
on the ground that it could not reach
back and destroy a contract made in ac-
cordance with the law prior to Janu-
ary l, 1889, while others claim that no
contract should have been made by the
directors with the teachers who had no
certificate under the law of last winter
for longer time than until January l,
1889.

The Time is Too Short.

A peculiar agitation is in progress in
Minnesota. Certain women in that
State are attempting to have u law
passed compelling man to declare his
intentions within four weeks after pay
ing his first visit to young woman.
Such measure would be foolish injus-
tice. A man who knows his own mind
regarding girl within q month after
meeting her is rare. This is to a great
extent the fault Of the gentler sex. The
nature of women is secretive. A young
women cannot be weighed and labeled
after few weeks acquaintance. She
must be studied for long time before
her desirability as wife can be proxi-
mately judged. Let the Minnesota leg
islators be very careful how they deal
with this subject. We insist that full
month is none to long to give the fellow
in search of wife, In which to make
known his intention. The difference OF
time between four weeks and q full
month is very important to some men.
Let the courting period not be curtailed
below thirty days. We feel that we
are now giving sound advice to the law
making gpoWers.-Er.

Sherman's War Horse.

When General William t. Sherman
was over in Philadelphia the other day,
he babe good-by to one Of his old horses,
Prince, which he used while in Wash
ington as General of the Army. He
gave the horse to his daughter Emily
after her marriage, and it was driven in
a coupe. But the General came to the
conclusion that Prince was getting too
old for service, and place has been
found for him with farmer near Lam
caster, Pa, who will only exercise him
by driving to the postotfice. In talk
ing with me about this pensioning of
his old favorite, the General said that
all the old war horses had gone, and he
knew of but one that had shifted battle
that was still alive.
