Not So Badly Diseased "a To Preclude All


The Physicians Find the Patients Heart :
Not So Badly Diseased "a to Preclude All
Hope of Recovery.
A thorough examination Of Gen. Sheridan
was made by the physicians on Sunday. 1t
was found that there was extensive trouble
OF the mitral valves Of the heart. and that
owing 10 a change in their structure they
did not fully close the aperture, and
thus allowed blood TO be forced back into
the heart. This trouble was dscertained
positively, and the rushing of the blood
back into the heart could be distinctly
heard. II was thought that the aortic ORR
fee might also be diseased, but the Gener-
ais breathing was still too heavy TO allow
this TO be definitely determined. II is said,
however. that the disease Of the heart is not
such as to entirely preclude hope Of the
Generals recovery. The liver was found to
be of larger size than was feared. Albumen
and calculi were found in the kidneys, but
as they have been acting quite freely II was
not thought that they are seriously affected.
On the whole it can be said that the consul
tation was Of an encouraging nature. The
case is, however, desperate and critical
though not altogether hopeless one. On
Monday the General was resting comforta-
bly,, and his chances for recovery were re-
garded as better than at any previous time.

The Mother ut Home.

The mother is the heart of the home.
She it is who determines its characteristics
and diffuses through it that subtle atm os-
phere which every sensitive person can
feel when introduced into the home circle.
the ruling spirit of the home. There can
be no doubt that the most effective training
for children is the training Of example,
and this truth the mother needs constantly
to bear in mind. How can the impatient,
querulous. fault finding mother teach pa
tience and kindness and good temper
How can the vain mother teach humility?
How can the mother greatly absorbed in
keeping up with the pomps and vanities Of
life, eager for place and show, teach her
children the true principles of a happy
life2 How can the selfish mother teach
generosity or kindness, or the DISCONTINUED
mother teach contentment?-Mrs. Helen

LIQUOR WINS A BIG VICTORY.

The Supreme Court of Michigan Kills Part
of the License Law.
The liquor law adopted by the last Michi-
gan Legislature has received another blow
from the state Supreme Court. says Lam
sing dispatch.
The decision this time invalidates the provision
which declares that brewers and saloonkeepers
shall not become sureties ON liquor bonds and
is the result Of II test case brought by Frederick
! Kuhn whose bond was rejected by the Detroit
Common Council because his sureties We're both
brewers. kuhns counsel claimed that the pro-
in the sale Of liquor from becoming sureties on
saloon bonds unconstitutional and void
because in conflict with the provision OF the
State Constitution that NO person shall
be deprived of life, liberty, or property without
due process of law" and also in conflict with the
the United States. that no State shall make or
enforce any law which shall abridge the privi-
lcges or immunities Of citizens Of the United
States, nor shall any State deny 10 any person
within its jurisdiction equal protection Of the
laws. The court concurs with both OF these OBJ
iections and declares the provision void
Other provisions Of the act go 10 the suf
hciency Of sureties and facilities for COL
lecting Judgment from them, and are reasona-
bile restrictions upon the right 10 carry on

son because Of the business in which he Is en-
gagged from entering into contracts OF II certain

CaulinOwer.

Soil that is fit for growing cabbage is
fit for growing caulifiower, we should say
to an inquirer. Caulihower, however, will
repay manuring in any soil. The seed
may be sown in the hot bed in January or
February, and the plants transplanted in
boxes or the soil OF another hot-bed until
it is safe TO plant out. OF course il is too
late to do that now. AS TO the merits Of
caulihower, which our correspondent asks
for, it would not be possible for us to de-
eide that for him. AS for ourselves, We
think caulifower very delicious. The seed
may be had of any of the seedsmen. Yes,
there are several different varieties, some
being earlier than others. Send for the
catalogue of some prominent scotsman,
from which you will learn what the names
and characteristics of the different varieties
