AMONG the foolish if not corrupt
things that are now agitating our
learned ard wise solons, is a bill to
vote gratuity to some law journal
in Baltimore, of So, 900 or $40,
by requiring all legal notices to be
published at least once in the deslg
mated journal. This nefarious bill
was snaked through the House and
sent to the Senate, but certain facts
becoming known to a member, the
Senate was asked to return the bill
and it is again in the House, where
the snake will not only be scotched
bat killed, we hope.

The Reason Why

Ayers Pills are so popular is. that
while always reliable as cathartic
medicine, they never leave any i'll
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from Gallo
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore. whether the patient
be old or young, they may be conf
IDENTIFY administered.
In the Southern and Western States,
where arrangements of the liver are so
general, Ayers Pills have proved an in
estimable blessing. ID. w. Baine, New
Berne, N. c., writes:
ST suffered long time with stomach
and liver troubles. i tried various rem.
edies, but received no benefit until
commenced taking Ayers Pills. These
pills benefited me at once. 4. took them
regularly for few months, and my
health was completely restored"
Throughout New England, next to
lung diseases, Stomach and Bowel
Complaints are the most prevalent.

The rule is to cry out against the
railways as if they were public enc
mics to be plundered and abused by
every body. Courts as well as peo-
pie too often act upon this theory;
but now and then a decision is Civ
en- which is fair and just to a rail-
road The Supreme Court of Penn
sylvania has recently decided that a
railroad company is not liable for
the injury or death of any one who
attempts to board a train through
other channels than those provided
by the company for the convenience
of its patrons. A man residing near
Philadelphia started for the station,
but found that he would not reach
it in time by going on the Travelled
roads; SO he took short c2t, craw-
led under barbed wire fence, CHM
bed a steep embankment, and start
ed across four railway tracks, when
he was struck by locomotive and
killed. The widow sued for dana
ges, and the lower court threw the
case out on nonsuit; whereupon
she appealed, and the Supreme
Court held that the nonsuit was
proper. La the decision the Chief
Justice said that deceased twas a
trespasser, and brought upon HIM
self the misfortune which befell him.
Nothing could be more obvious
than that the railroad did not in
tend that passengers should reach its
station by the way and manner he
chose to adopt. The ditch aud the
character of the ground we're them
selves sufficient notice Of this fact,
but in addition the wire fence under
which he had to stoop to crawl the
point of the accident was positive
warning that in passing it he as
snmed every risk that might posi-
bly, occur on his way to the train
which he intended to board"

Dyspepsia

and Constipation are almost universal.
Mr.. GALLAGHER, a practical chemist, OF
Roxbury, Mass, who was long troubled
with Dyspepsia, writes:
"a friend induced me to try Ayers
Pills, and, after taking one box without
much benefit, i was disposed TO quit
them; but he urged perseverance, and,
before / had finished the second box,
began to experience relief. continued
taking them, at intervals, until had
used eleven boxes. Suffice it to say,
that l am now a well man, and grateful
to your chemistry, which outstrips
mine"
The head and stomach are always in
sympathy hence the cause Of most OF
those distressing headaches, to which
so many, especially women, are subject.
Mrs. Harriet A. Marble, of Poughkeep-

a martyr to headache, and never found
anything TO give her more than tenn
porary relief, until she began taking
Ayers Pills, since which she has been
in the enjoyment of perfect health.

HEALTH AND WORN.

There are many persons in tho
world whose only capital is heal III.
They are engaged in work of various
kinds, and so long as good health
lasts they earn good living. rhcy
must learn how to avoid illness by
living in the right way. There are
Others who have lived wrongly in
youth, but who have found out their
errors in time to have d fairly good
constitution left. These may live to
. ripe old age, BEAUTIFULLY, il they
only take care. There are still 9TH
ers with everything that riches can
give, these must learn 10 live rightly,
too, if they want to do well. Plain
food, exercise, etc, will enable them
to 1--we long, as they are not troubled
by the necessity Of work SO that they
may live. Wealth comes not from

DEPLORABLE.

Nothing presents a sadder COM
mentary upon the present condition
OF society than the large number OF
families, both in town and country.
but more especially the latter that
subscribe to no papers of any kind.
Hundreds and thousands of families
are thus growing up utterly ignorant
of what is transporting in the world
around them--ignorant OF the mighty
events of the day But who can tell
the vast amount OF injury that is
being afflicted on the rising genera
tion-those who are to take our place
in the busy world at no distant day
growing up without any knowledge
of the present, and study of the past;
this ignorance, too, being imbued into
them by the sanction of those who
should and doubtless do, know bet
ter, did they only think of the iniu-
rlous effects on their course. Let
the head of every family think of
this, and place in the hands of those
for whom he is responsible the means
Of acquiring some knowledge of the
moving panorama in which we act
the different parts.
There should be sound as well as
attractive reading matter convenient
in every household, AMI although
there is great deal::of light, trashy
literature in the land, there is scarce
ly periodical or newspaper pub
lished that makes any pretense to re-
spectability, but that contains seed of
worth and value Therefore it is
the duty OF the head of the family
to provide for the house in this par
ticular; if it is not done they are
culpable.

co OPERATION,

The Amana community in Iowa,
including population Of about !.
600, is an illustration of the success
OF cooperative effort among thrifty
Germans. The settlement was be-
gun in 1853, and the colony now
owns 26,000sacres of land. The lana
forms a single township aud the peo-
pie are grouped in seven villages.
Each village is a social and industri.
al unit, and has definite area a..
signed to 1T FOR cultivation and pastur-
age. The government Of the COLONY
affairs as whole is invested in n
board OF thirteen trustees, while each
village has it's Board Of Elders. vary
ing in number from seven in the
smallest to eighteen in the largest.
The central institution in each Wiz
lage is the ''store, which is a largo
general REAL establishment carry
ing groceries, drugs, dry goods, cloth
ing, hats and caps, hardware, etc
Its bookkeeping is very elaborate,
for except in dealings with outsiders
the colonists do not ordinarily use
money. Everything is done by a
system OF accounts which are kept
at the store The blacksmith shop
and the carpenter shop have accounts
against the farm department which
are duly recorded on the village
books. Every family or adult has an
account st the store, certain cred
it, being apportioned to all members
by the elders at the commencement
OF each year, which are drawn
against by purchasers Boarding
houses furnish meals to members in
each village in groups Of from forty
to fifty each, Houses are assigned
to families by the elders, who pro-
vide shelter for all. The community
conducts a number OF mills and man
uiacturing enterprises.

ON TOP.

The Rhode Island Democrats as
sert that they have snatched victory
out Of defeat Their State ticket
was defeated and the next Legisla-
ture will be Republican, but con-
stitutional amendment was adopted
by which the property qualification
tor voters Of foreign birth is abolish
ed. This amendment goes into eff
feet at once. Heretofore no foreign
born citizen Of that State who did
not hold at least Sl34 worth of prop
erty could not vote for State offices.
The Bourn amendment abolishes this
law. 1t was vigorously opposed by
the Republicans, recognized that its
adoption meant gain Of Democrat
ic voters. About 5000 I&turalized
citizens who nave not heretofore
been allowed to do 80 will vote al
the next State election. As Rhode
Island is a very small State, m adj
ditional 5000 Oh 10000 votes will be
very apt TO have marked effect OF
the result. The Democrats say i
will revolutionize the political stu
alton. The amendment was adopted
by 80 votes more than the necessary
! two-thirds.
