victim of the opium habit, involving an
almost total loss of physical and mental
powers and actual mental restitution.
The story was at once denied by her
friends, who say she has suffered simply
from nervous prostration, is in no need
of pecuniary aid, and is on the way to
speedy recovery.
Opium victims are usually hopeless,
helpless slaves, mind weakened, lacking
energy for any effort toward recovery,
rapidly drifting into imbecility and un-
timely graves.
A peculiar feature is that victims
crafty conceal it from their nearest
friends. A young lady at school near
Philadelphia was recently found to be
secretly addicted to it, keeping her
medicine" in a schoolroom inkstand,
and injecting the fluid into her arm with
a stylographic pen.
In the Chicago Farm, Field, and Stock
man, September "a, 1887, is this letter,
signed S. T. O., from Barstow, KY: II
missed the paper that had my letter i'll,
so did not know that you made the re-
quest to know what it was l used to
break up the morphine habit, until got
letter from a gentleman asking infor-
nation. should have answered sooner.
1t was Warmers safe cure. Ishould have
given it when wrote the letter, but it
looked too- much like an advertisement. /"
This voluntary statement goes to con-
firm the claim made by the proprietors
| of Warmers safe cure, that it is the only
remedy in the world which has any de-
cided power over diseases of the kidneys
| and liver, and that this terrible habit
cannot be cured until these organs have
| first been restored to full health, because
they are the ones chiefly affected by this
drug.
Editor VIM. A. Bode of Alton, ILL.,, was
completely cured of the opium habit, &C
quired by long use in a painful malady,
with Warmers safe cure. 1t cannot be
cured at all if the kidneys and liver are
diseased.
| 1t is not claimed that there is ANYTHING
in Warmers safe cure alone which will do
away with the habit, except that it puts
the kidneys and liver in a healthy con-
dition, giving the whole system that
strength and tone without which any
attempt to throw off the habit would be
vain.
1t is because physicians have discovered
that no other remedy is so beneficial in
restoring health to the liver, kidneys, and
general system as the one stated, that it
has come into general use in connection
with the special remedies for the cure OF
the dreadful opium habit.
One of the worst features of the opium
habit is the deadening of mental and
moral sensibilties in proportion as it
weakens the physical system and the
will power.

THE aggressive element in the demo-
cratic national committee hadit way at
the meeting held last week, and decided
to hold the nominating convention in
St. Louis, on J6me 5th. just two weeks
prior to the republican convention. It
was at first decided to fix the date a
little later than the republican conven.
ton, on July 3rd., but it was argued
that such action would be construed into
a confession of Notwithstanding re-
publican nomination and declaration OF
principles before acting, and the vote was
accordingly reconsidered and the earlier
date selected. But it matters little, any
way. Republican success is preordained.
Yet it inspires respect for the doomed
organization now in power, that it has
the nerve to take the aggressive.

HENRY NJ. Knox, public examiner Q

HENRY NJ. KNOX, public examiner of
Minnesota, one of the ablest financiers in
the state, has been elected vice president
of the Security bank. of Minneapolis, to
succeed Joseph Dram, who has resigned
M. d. Kenyon, the efficient deputy state
auditor, one of the most genial of men,
and every way competent, has been APP
pointed to succeed Mr.. Knox as public
examiner. The appointment is an ex-
cellent one, the only objection being that
it removes Mr.. Kenyon from the list of
candidates for state auditor-a position
he would fill with credit after his twelve
years service as deputy. In an interview
with the governor relative to the APP
pointment he paid this exalted tribute to
Mr.. Kenyon:
In the first place he is a thoroughly
honest man, as well as being a man OF
ability, and he has a familiarity with
public accounts, such as state, county,
and state institution accounts, that no
other man in the state possesses. Hehas
been for many years deputy state auditor
and in that capacity has gradually abb
sorbed knowledge in regard to the finan-
cial affairs of the state that makes him a
very valuable man in the state govern
1nent. There is no more important office
in the state government. Mr.. Knox has
done the pioneer work and has so thor
oughly systematized the work that Mr..
Kenyon will be able to take it up and
carry it on without much trouble. And
don't forget to mention the fact that he
was not a candidate. He was thorough
ly surprised when rendered him the APP
pointment and as embarrassed as boy.
Oh, yes, he'll make good officer.
