Two ways. Choose Which

There are two usual ways Of doing what Ma
ture sometimes does incompIetely, namely, to
relieve the bowels, One is to swallow drastic
purgative which evatuatos profuseIy, abruptly
and with pain, the other is to take Hostetter,e
Stomach B,tters, the effect of which ia not yio-
lent, but sufficiently Thorough and which doea
not gripe the intestines, If the first ia selected,
tho person employing it need not expect per.
manent benefit, and he cannot hope to escnaa
the debilitnting reaction which leaves the
organs as bad or worse off than before. If, on
the other hand, he resorts to tho Bitters. ae
can rely upon the restoration of q regular
habit of body, consequent upon d renewal of q
healthful tone in the intestinal canal. Besides
beautifully relaxing the bowels, the Bitters
arouse dormant liver, impart beneficial

Keep the Stables Light.

Dark stables are an aDomInation, and
should not be tolerated. There is no
necessity TO sacrifice comfort, either in win

horses eyes are enlarged-the pupil of the
eye isLby being kept in dark stable; he
has a harness put on TO him and suddenly
brought out into the bright, glazing sun
light, which contracts the pupil so sudden
ly as to cause extreme pain. BY persever-
ing in this very foolish and injudicious as
well as cruel practice, the nerves of the
eye become impaired, and If continued
long enough, loss of sight will ensue. To
see how very painful it is TO face bright
light after having been in the dark, take
walk some dark night for short time, till
the eye becomes accustomed to the dark
ness, then drop suddenly iuto some we'll
lighted room and you will be scarcely able
to see for few moments in the sudden
light. You know how painful 1t is to your
self, then why have your horse repeatedly
TO bear such unnecessary Iainp A dark
stable is invariably damp one, and such
stables we are not yet willing to put either
valuable working or driving horse in.
Give good ventilation, let the Sunshine and
the air have n chance to effect an entrance,
and your stables will be purer and more
healthy than if you take such pains to ex-
clude them and the good influence they in
variably bring.

OUR SUPPLY OF WHEAT.

ers' Hands.
Washington special. I


Statistician Dodge Of the Agricultural
Department has prepared q comparison of
stocks Of wheat remaining in farmers
hands, which is to be published in the
Forthcoming report. 1t is claimed ut the
department that the brief synopsis sent out
March 10 has been misquoted and mis-
understood. For this reason full state
ment has been prepared which is intended
to be satisfactory exposition of the wheat
situation to the commercial public. 1t also
seems framed as reply to criticisms made
by Board of Trade people in Chicago.
Statistician Dodge, in his report, says
"The remainder of the crop of wheat in
the hands of farmers is 1873 per cent.
OF Its volume, against 26.7 per cent. a
year ago. This proportion was ex-
ceeded in 1886, 1885, and 1881, and is
nearly the same as in 1884 and 1883. In
fact, only in 1887 and 1882 was the proper
ton lower. In round numbers the guam
tity is 49,, 900, 900 bushels, against 1872 ,000,-
600 last year. In actual quantity the re-
mainder from the failure crop of 1881 was
only "a. 000, 600 bushels less. The crop
was about the same as that of 1886, but
March the quantity exported wheat and
four was IL 900, 900 bushels less than al
the same date from the product of 1886.
The following statement shows the re-
mainder Of the previous crop on farms
since 1880:

BADEAU AND THE GRANTS.

Col Fred Publishes Long Reply to the
Generals Address.
Col L. ID. GRANT makes public a long state
ment in reply to Gen. Adam Badeaus address
to the American people upon the controversy
which has arisen between Gen. Badeau and
the family of the late Gen. L. S. Grant as to
the services rendered 10y Gen. Badeau in con-
ncction with the writing of the Personal
Memoirs Of L. s Grant"
Colonel Grant says that IL is his last word in
the matter prior TO the hearing OF the case in
court, and that for that reason he presents the
history OF the case in eXtenso. Under the cir
cumstances. therefore. he goes over much
ground which has already been covered by
publication in the daily papers, and gives
much space to correspondence participated in
by himself and the lawyers in the
case, chiefly in the negotiations with
view to the settlement OF the case
without resort TO the courts TO personal
denuuciation Of General Badeau, and to
arguments going to show that Gen. Badeau's
ser ices were of much less important char
actsr than Badeau claims that they were.
Col Grant adds that the demand Of Gen
Badeau was a source of grief and annoyance to
his father for the remainder OF his life, and
adds that the letter OF reply was written
eleven days before my father death, mt a Pc
Rod OF keen personal suffering, and when the
memory OF Gen. Badeau's letter OF May made
his mental anguish greater than that OF the
body."

The charge made by the Rock Island is, il
substance, that prior to the trouble with

Burlington had entered upon n systematic
lowering OF freight rates with the pur-
pose OF forcing all the competing roads,
great and small, to form a gigantic railway
trust, to be managed by three men vested with
absolute power to make ana alter rates and
control the business OF all the roads entering
into the combination. 1t is also charged that
the Burlington fomented and III ado use of the
disaffection among its own employees for the
purpose OF coercing the other roads into join
ing the trust, and that IL has, in pursuance of
that purpose, attempted TO invoive the Rock
