Their Business Booming.

Probably no one thing caused such a re-
vival of trade at J. B Perkins Drug Store as
their giving away to their customers of so
many free trial bottles of Or. Kings Ne &
Discovery for Consumption. Their trade is
simply enormous in this very valuable arti-
Gle from the fact that it always cures and
never disappoints. Coughs. Colds, Asthma
Bronchitis, Group, and all throat and lung
diseases quickly cured. You can test it be.
fore buying by getting a trial bottle free,

A GREAT 1wo-HoRsE ACT.

The circus has nothing more fascinating
than the performance of the accomplished
gentleman who, with ease and grace, rides
two horses at one and the same time.
The great difficulty of the feat, and the
imminent danger, every instant, that a
slight difference in the pace or motions of
the two steeds may cause the gifted actor to
fall and break his precious neck make the
exhibition one TO Gil the small boys heart
with tumultuous enthusiasm and satisfy the
ordinary spectator that the so cents he has
paid for his ticket was an excellent invest
ment. The casualty reports, however, do
not make the danger so great as it ap-
pears, since, as in all cases where men
follow anything as business the bare
back riders have taken abundant precaution
against accidents. The mortality is almost
wholly confined to ambitious boys and
others who attempt the feat without the
training and skill of the professionals.
Our cartoon represents the distinguished
statesman from Indiana attempting an anna
teur performance of the same nature as the
thrilling exhibition in the sawdust arena.
He is trying to ride two steeds, both full OF
spirit and go" What most alarms his
friends is that the go" is very manifestly
II, n-poS;4a J:rnot;ons
His party mounted him on the Mills Bill,
which is going in one direction as fast as ii
can be whipped by the lash of the caucus
| ringmaster. He mounted himself on the
Arrears of Pension Bill, which is going in
the opposite direction as fast as it can be
spurred on by the keen urgency of thou
sands of veterans, whose goodwill Col. Mat
son finds particularly valuable at this juno,
| ture.
Dexterous as Col Matson is in the politi
/ cal arena it is beyond the limits of posi-
bility that he can rein the two steeds in the
same direction and make them gallop side
by side with the regulated pace that vii
render his position secure and easy for ;
minute
If he is going to ride at all, he must in
stantly choose which horse he will stay OF
and which he win let go.
Which will it be?
His decision is breatblessly awaited.

tainly expect from them the concession that
they were wrong, and that they have as much
reason as we to rejoice in the victory which
was won.
We have the right to believe that they

That these honored dead shall not have died in

of devotion, and we highly resolve that this Nation

COL. n1ATsoN's DILEMMA.

Col. MatsOn's dilemma is easily stated:
1. He is in favor of the Mills Bill, which
proposes to reduce the revenues of the Gov
ernment to an amount only sufficient to
meet the actual running expenses.
2. He has reported the Arrears Of Pension
Bill, which he says will take $25,0OO 000, 900
out of the Treasury.
3. If the Mills Bill passes there viii be
no money with which to pay arrears of pen
siOns, or any other increase of the pension
roll.
4. If the Arrears of Pension Bill passes
first, the reduction of revenue by the Mills
Bill is simply impossible.
Now, which bill is he in favor of passing
first?

To Ariagtons beautiful hight,

Defending their country and right
know what we owe to the hero that died
Can never to him be repaid
And poor seem the blossoms You strew by his side
For they. not his glory, wiz fade.
But yet I'll deny you, think, for to-day
sits one all alone in his home,
Whose feet nevermore on the greensward may
stray,
Meier more mid the bright flowers roam;
He lives for Eis country, the martyr of years,
With feet deaths beat long ago;
I'll bear then, these roses, baptized in my tears,
To tn hero that loves them know.
Go lay thou thy tribute upon each dead breast,
The JOY that it brings viii be thine,
For calm lies each form meath its hilIock at rest
Unmindful of garlSnds you Irvine;
While mine will yield into hands true and brave
Aud tn joy that il bears viii rebound,
An echo aslray on loves turbulent wave
One note D whole chorus of sound.
