superior to opium. in that, while
opium relieves pain by benumbing
sensibility, mustard does it by remov-
ing the condition upon which it de-
ponds. 1t acts by stimulating certain
nerve fbers which preside over the
capillary blood-vessels, dilating the
vessels themselves, and thus increas-
| ing the flow of blood to the surface
and relieving congestion of internal

when deep-seated parts are affected,

to mix it with an equal Or even great

1t should be mixed to the consistency
of thin dough, spread upon a thick

other thin cloth. It should rarely be
kept on over twenty minutes or half
an hour. and never long enough to

USES OF MUSTARD.

One of the Most Eficaeious of Domestic
Medicinal Agents.
Few domestic remedies are of greater
value than common mustard. AS a
condiment and agreeable stimulant to
the digestive organs, it is found upon
almost every table. Used in this form
it will sometimes relieve obstinate hic-
cough. The unbrOken seed of the
white mustard is of some value as a
laxative when taken in tablespoonful
doses.
Of more Importance is the use Of
mustard as an emetic. A tablespoon
full of ordinary ground mustard taken
in cupful of warm water will produce
copious vomiting in from two to five
minutes On this account. and because
it is almost always at hand, it is es-
pecially valuable in emergencies. In
cases of poisoning by opium or other
narcotics, it is without an equal as
domestic emetic.
But by far the most important use
of mustard is as a counter-irritant. A
mustard paste is second to nothing but
opium in it's power to relieve internal
pain, whether arising from congestion,
Inflammation or spasm. Indeed, it is

Does Protection Benefit.

so many side issues and personal or
local interests have been introduced in
to the question of tariff vs.. free trade
that the real merits or demerits of the
problem as to which is best for the
country are confused and obscure to the
public mind. We see, for instance, a
certain city whose industries are almost
entirely supported by the false doctrine
of robbing the many for the benefit of
the few, or we see some special interest
which from the support afforded by a
tax laid by the Government for its
benefit, prospers. What we do not so
palpably see, for the reason that it is so
diffused is, that the poor artisan, the
humble laborer and the farmer alike
are paying this tax, in small portions it
is true, but paying it nevertheless. The
former Is seen and perhaps admired as
an example of what government can
10; the latter is ignored because un-
seen.
That the argument of building up the
favored few at the expense of the MANY
is Illogical, requires but moments re-
Election to determine. Give the mat
ter local significance and watch the re-
suits. Suppose Mr.. B., merchant, in
driving meets with the misfortune of a
runaway which results in the ruin of
his carriage. A bystander, by way of
consoling the merchant remarks "that
it is an i'll wind that blows nobody
good. Carriage makers must live and
what would the carriage makers do if
no carriages were broken" Therein
lies theory. 1t costsy$1O0 to repair the
carriage, and it is therefore said that it
brings 800 to the carriage maker, it
helps trade just that much. Admitted.
The carriage maker repairs the car
riage and blesses the unruly horse. All
this is seen. But it is not seen that Mr..
b. having spent 500 on the repairing
of his carriage can not spend it upon
other things. If he had not his car
riage to repair he could have purchased
some clothing, bought books for his
library, have taken his family for an
outing or have invested the money in
his business. Had the carriage not
been broken the tailor, the bookmaker,
or some other trade would have been
benefited, this is that which is not
seen.
The entire result of industry, then,

fected whether carriages are broken or
not, but how about Mr.. B? Is it not
clear that, had not Mr.. B. been com.
PEELED to pay for repairing his carriage,
he would have expended the $lOO in
another direction, and that, but for the
accident he might have had the enjoy
ment of more and better clothing, more
comfort and the carriage too?
So, as Mr.. B. is part of society, is IL
not evident that in making an estimate
of society, labors and enjoyment, it has
lost the sum of the broken carriagec II
this is true then it necessarily follow:
that in loss there can he no gain. That
while protection may help individual
cases, in the general effect the majority
are losers? That if it benefits certain
industry to be protected by the Gov
ernment, then whoever pays the en-.

News from Ohio Wednesday warmed
John Sherman to the extent Of free
speech. He arose In the Senate, con-
seious that his fences were secure in
Ohio, to deny the truth of history and
defend the fraud Hayes. He pictured
the infamous Returning Board OF j.
Madison Wells as sacred thing which
executed the laws with prophetic in
spiration, He justified the rejection OF
5000 Tilden votes on the ground OF
fraud, but made no illusion to his own
memorable seances with Eliza Pink
ston or his dark days and nights in the
New Orleans Custom House.
He went even so far as to say that
the Returning Board decision which
gave Hayes the electoral vote gave
Packard the Governorship, but that
"lOcal decisions" and what not made
it impossible for Hayes to compel the
seating of Packard. While his hand
was in, the Senator did not hesitate to
declare the well grounded conviction OF
the nation wrong. Hayes was, he as
serted, legally President, because some
Democrats had owned that there was
fraud in the Louisiana contest.
Yet, when confronted by Senator
Vest with Blaine's resolution declaring
Packard elected if Hayes had been
Senator Sherman took refuge in dis
Greet silence. But perhaps the most
unique expression ever drawn from q
public man was the reconciliation Oi
Sherman's Nashville and Springfield
speeches. The Nashville address, Inc
explained, was made under the influ-
ence of memories of Lincoln to men Of
the future; the Springfield bloody shirt
harangue to men of the past whose
memories needed refreshing. Senator
John will have to do good deal more
explaining before he can make his con.
duct and his speeches "consist. IN

Make Sure ofoIeveland's Acceptance

Make Sure eofCIeveland's Acceptance
These considerations should so far
prevail with the Democracy as to in
spire their delegations to the conven-
tion with an undivided sentiment that
will secure the nomination of Mr.
Cleveland as if by acclamation.-
Although there may be no danger OF
any considerable opposition, 1t would
be unfortunate If the voices of a few
marplots should dispute the general
disposition toward spontaneous and
impulsive unanimity. Mr.. Cleveland
would not refuse nomination rendered
him in conformity with the over
whelming sentiment and imperative
demand of his party. But something
more than his acceptance would be in
sured by such a nomination. Tt would
arouse the Democracy to enthusiasm
and spur their partisanship to the high
est degree of exertion for the success of
the ticket. A standard bearer who has
known no faction against him is strong
not only in the confidence that he feels,
but In the confidence with which he in
spires his followers. A sweeping
Democratic victory next November
would settle the party permanently up
on the foundations of It's supremacy In
national politics. Let the delegations

nation by the unanimity of their votes,

tumor had extensity attachment to the
walls OF the nose and palate. These
were cut with
GREAT DELICACY.
Even with all the precautions the
hemorrage was so great that the opera
tion was repeatedly interrupted. The
portion of the tumOr in the nose was re-
moved first. Then a hook was run in
to the patients mouth and made fast
into the portion that hung In the rear
pasal passage. The pedicle of the
tumor. which was attached to the base
of the Uranium, was severed as
close to the bone as possible and the
pear-shaped, glistening growth was Ia
ken from the mouth. A piece of metal
at a white heat was passed over the
bleeding surface to check the flow OF
blood.
Every fragment of diseased tissue
that could be seen was cut away to pre-
vent a return of the disease. When the
nasal cavity had been washed it was
packed with lint: The nose was not re.
placed for several days to admit of q
further search for the diseased points
and the use of caustics. 1t required
much skill and patience to make the
nose fit properly, as it had shrunk some
but it was finally stretched into shape.
1t is very fair-looking nose now, but il
is not on exhibition even to neal
friends. 1t is expected, on account Of
unusually rapid reunion, that only g
slight scar will be visible to indicate the
folly of taking quack medicines, and
the skillful removal and replacement Of
q nose.

DANGEROUS OPERATION.
The patient was put under the infiu-
ence of either at home. An incision
was made In the upper lip, just under
the nose, beginning at the right ala
nasi. 1t was extended horizontally in
the first molar on the left side. The to
cision was then carried obliquely up
ward, so that the tissue where the
mucous membrane passes over the
gums would not be injured. It ran
along the entire length of the nose to
the inner corner of the left eye, and
from there was projected over the bridge
of the nose to the right eye. The right
side of the nose was left uncut, SO as to
act as hinge. The knife through the
entire length of the incision was forced
through the periosteum down to the
bone. The spina-nasalis was divided at
the base with bone scissors, and a fine-
pointed saw was introduced into the
opening thus made under the nose.
The saw was moved in and out with
great caution through the superior
maxilla and along the ieft side of the
nose, following the line marked by the
incision to the bridge of the nose. An
other form of saw was used TO 20
through the bridge. All the bone be-
ing cut through, the cartilage dividing
the n0strils was severed with scalpel
and bone-scissors. A lever was then
used to pry the nose upward, and the
whole organ was laid upon the
right cheek, fully exposing the
whole nasal cavity on both sides. The
