To Assist Nature

In restoring diseased or wasted tissue is
all that any medicine can do. In pull
monary affections, such as Colds, Bron-
chitis, and Consumption, the mucous
membrane first becomes inflamed, then
accumulations form in the air-cells of
the lungs, followed by tubercles, and,
finally, destruction of the tissue. 1t is
plain, therefore, that, until the hacking
cough is relieved, the bronchial tubes
can have no opportunity to heal.

the inflamed membrane, arrests the
wasting process, and leaves no injurious
results. This is why 1t is more highly
estemeed than any other pulmonary
specific.
l.. d. Bixby, of Bartonsville, VT,
writes: "Four years ago took Sc
we're cold, which was followed by q
terrible cough. I was very sick, and
confined to my bed about four months.

Tax ReductiOn.-The State tax has
been reduced from 1S9 cents on the 800 to
1T. On motion of Senator Urner, the
Senate adopted an amendment to the bill 10
increase the levy of 10 cents to the public
schools to 10i cents. This was done to give
the school fund the increase of $25 900 to
the white schools and $25 900 TO the colored
SCHOOLS, as provided by amendment to the
appropriation bills. The amount of school
appropriation is now $550,0G0. The State
finance officers said the usual levy of 10
cents would not give the extra $4,000, and
the cent additional was agreed upon.

Medical Society.

Mr. Editor The only mention you made
Medical Society was that we failed to have
a meeting for want of o quorum. Owing TO
the incemency of the weather and pressing
engagements we lacked one of the requisite
number, but we feel more encouraged than
at any other time since our organization, as
two applicants for membership were present
and number of other physicians signifed
their intention to join the Society. | have
no doubt that every physician in the county
who takes an interest In his profession and
favors the advancement Of medical science
will unite with US. Our next regular meet

the authorities.
Mr.. G. said when the keeper came to that
conclusion he saw trouble ahead, but he had
gone so far with it he would not back out,
SO he waited the result OF the council. He
did not wait long before the keeper came
back with host of .counselors at his heels
They Immediately accused him of being
free -soiler, aboltionist, &c. He told them he
was. and they said, ave will make short
work OF YOU" He stood with his back to
the stable so they could not attack him in
the rear and deied them; told them not to
Law hands on him, as the first one that put q
finger on him was a dead man. His over
coat pockets were stuffed with newspapers,
and he heard some one in the crowd say,
"Don't you see what makes him so plucky
and defiant, his overcoat pockets are filled
with reyolvers." (Mr. 9. had no weapon to
defend hmself) AS soon as he heard this
remark, with the quickness of thought, he
made it available. He Immediately began
to strike his overcOat pockets with bis hands
and redoubled his defiance, daring them to
lay hands on him. He told them he expect
ed they would kill him, bat they might rest
assured he should not die alone. The crowd
saw his determination, and as none of them
felt quite ready TO pass in his check, they
began to leave, one by one, until he was left
alone. He said he felt very much relieved ,
their absence was good company. He bid
adieu to Rockville and took leg bail for Sc
curity.
His pecuniary means were exhausted, he
could get DO employment, and like every
| true born American he was ashamed to beg.
| As o last resort he concluded he would make
an effort to get q GleTkship in some of the
government departments, and for this pur-
| pose he went to the Secretary of the State
| Department, Hon. Thomas Corwin, Of Ohio
| He gained access to the office, and as he en-
tered the Secretary sat at his desk writing,
with his back to him. Mr.. Cameron waited
some time, but receiving no recognition he
made free to say "Mr. Secretary, called
TO see II you would aid me In getting a
clerkship in your department" The Secre-
tary did not look around, but commenced
saying every thriftless, lazy, dishonest man,
gamblers and blacklegs, were applying 10
him for'ef1ice. Mr.. Cameron said it looked
anything but encouraging. 81 felt desper-
| ate thought I could make matters nc
worse, so said; Mr.. Secretary, you remem-
Der the old adage-birds of feather flock
together The Secretary did not look around
but seemed somewhat angered at my bold
ness and commenced another string Of words
OF like meaning. He seemed to Gull the
very dictionary for words that expressed al
that was mean, low lived, despicable, &c.
and these were the characters that were ap
plying to him for Office" Mr.. Cameron
said nobody but Tom Csrwin could pul
such string of words together. He waited
until the Secretary was through and then
said: "But, Mr.. Secretary, 1 must insist or
the old adage-birds of feather flock to
gether." The Secretary then turned around
and surveyed Mr.. G. from head TO foot, and
finally said, pointing to a chair by his side
