Peace on Earth

Awaits that countless army of martyrs, whose ranks are constantly recruited from the victims of nervous ness and nervous diseases. The price of the boon is a systematic course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters the finest and most genial of tonic nervines, pursued with reasonable persistence. Easier, pleasanter and safer this than to wash the victualling department with pseudo-tonics, alcoholic or the reverse, beef extracts, nerve foods. narcotics, sedatives and poisons in disguise. "Tired Natures sweet restorer, balmy sleep" is the providential recuperant of weak nerves, and this glorious franchise being usually the consequences of sound digestion and increased vigor, the great stomachic which insures both is productive also of repose at the required time. Not unrefreshed awakens the individual who uses it, but vigorous, clear headed end tran quil. Use the Bitters also in fever and ague, rheumatism, kidney troubles, constipation and bilious ness.

Among the provisions of Senator Stewards new mining bill now be- fore Congress is one that does not allow an individual to relocate his claim. In other words, the only manner in which a person can hold claim is by doing the law ful amount of work upon it. In this connection the Mining and Scientific Press remarks: The law is designed to protect the miner who in good faith tests his claim by working it; and is designed to force the man who does nothing to give up to some one who will work. Senator Stewards bill eff fects both these points better than the present laws. If man does nothing for year on a claim he has located, let him give it up to some one who will. It will be much better for the mining inter- ests, and will prevent one man holding a dozen or so claims with out working any. The best thing f1r the mining interests of the country is for the claims to be worked. If the locations are DO good, abandon them; but to leave this undetermined for years in succession does no good to any ona

The district court at Tombstone has rendered a decision in the case of the Board of Supervisors vs. Treasurer Ritter. The suit was brought to recover S6,800 withheld by the treasurer under the claim of fees for collection of taxes. Judge Barnes rendered a decision for the county on the ground that while the treasurer was probably entitled to the money, he had no legal right to retain it from the county funds in the manner in winch he did. The case has been appealed to the Territorial supreme court.

It is strongly intimated that, in case of the nomination of Messrs. Cleveland and Blaine by their respective parties, Roscoe Conk- ling will take the stump for the former. There is a distinct re- membrance that he refused to stump for Mir. Blaine in 1884 on the ground that he had no criminal practice. Evidently Mir. Conkling has no scruples against acting as prosecuting attorney.

patent has recently be

A patent has recently been granted in France for the extrac- tion of aluminium from its oxide by the combined action of carbon, sulphide of carbon and heat. Aluminus carbon is obtained by mixing powdered alumina with forty per cent, by weight, of powdered charcoal or lampblack; to this mixture is added suffici- ent quantity of any oil or tar to form a thick paste. This paste is placed in closed vessel capable of standing a high temperature, and Is calcined to a red heat for the purpose of decomposing the oil or tax, and the coherent mass of alumnious carbon thus obtained is broken up into small pieces. The pieces are placed in closed vessel provided with pipes, one of which leads current of gaseous sulphuret of carbon into the mass until the reaction is complete, and the other allows of the escape of the carbonic oxide produced. The sulphuret of aluminium thus ob- tained is treated at red heat Tn closed vessel having pipes, with current of carbonated hydrogen. The latter unites with the sulphur, producing sulphurated hydrogen, leaving the pure aluminium.

Although for the greater part of 80 years her
life had been one of peculiar weakness and
suffering, calling for and receiving tenderest
ministrations and unceasing care, her death
was most unexpected Her mother left her
at night fully as comfortable usual and
found her in the morning with no signs of suf-
fering, but beyond and past it all forever Ev-
identity, rs the new day dawned upon the
earth, her ears caught the joyous greeting
from the other shore and upon her vision rose
the brightness of the liking in His beauty =
The song of redeeming love, begun In the
heart on earth, measures sweetest, fullest
harmony at His feet. Shut In, as Helen was
for SO many years, few beyond the home cir
cle could appreciate her native worth and
true Christian character. In her death, Mr.
Treats household loses for the second time a
daughter and sister. Four years ago last
Sunday, Susie heard the summons, "The Mas
ter is come and calleth for thee" With the
family we sorrow, while tor them we rejoice.
Beyond the river, the circle widens. May He,
whom to know is life eternal, make it at last
complete in Him."-[S. E. Lyon, Bridgewa-
