An Albany physician says that the
most curious prescription he ever gave
to a pationt was one ho prepared for a
lady. Twas; stop walking up and
down stairs. The only way this pre-
scription could be taken was by chang
ing her hoa'e, as she lived in one Of

Heaven and Earth.

There are no Shadows where there Is no
Sun;
There is no beauty where there is no
Shade
And all things in two lines of glory run,
Darkness and light, ebon and gold inlaid-
God comes among us through the shrouds ot
air;
And his dim track is like the silvery wake
Left by yon pinnace on the mountain lake,
Fading and reappearing here and there.
Tho lamps and wells through heav'n aud
earth that move,
Go in and out, as jealous Of their light,
Like sailing stars upon a misty night
Death is the shade of coming life; and Love
Yearns for her dear ones in the holy tomb,
Because bright things are better seen in
gloom

No other complaints are so insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs;
none so tritled with by the majority of suffer
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from trifling or unconscious ex.
posure, is often but the beginning of a fatal
sickness. AYERS CHERRY PEcToRAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with threat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in Il cases without delay.

terests Of the metropolis are closely iden-
titled with Sherman's financial policy and
his general views on public questions.
Considering the great impor lance of these
Influences and their mugwumpish tenden-
cies in the past, an honest conclusion IT.
resistibly suggests that Sherman ought
to poll the full vote of his party In New
York state, a feat that Mr.. Blaine did not
and cannot accomplish 80 long as George
Jones and George Wi liam Curtis hold
their group Of mugwumps toge' her.
The Louisville Commercial last week
in reviewing this feature OF Sherman's
campaign says: "His strength has been
proven wherever preliminary vote has
been taken. the south turns to him as
the one man, after Blaine, who can lead
the party to victory. Sherman is popu-
lar in New York, too, and after DepeW Is
dropped, which he will be early In the
balloting, the vote of the Empire state
will in all probability, 60 to him."
But no matter about this, The GAZETTE
Is firmly convinced that Grover Cleveland
can and will defeat whatever candidate is
pitted against him-even Sherman with
all his business backing. =

Says the Fort Smith Times: 'tThere is scarcely
countyin the state that has not built from two to
four schoolhouses within the last two wears, rang
ing in value from 5000 to $4,000. The educa-
tional future of the state is certainly Frightening
andlt will not be long until Arkansas will rank
with Massachusetts and Iowa. We already lead
them when the question oftaxabe property is con-
sidered with the revenue raised. f"
Gov. Hughes in his address last Monday eve
ming, spoke of the advancement made by the state
IN educational interests in manner highly encour
aging to those having the cause of education deep
ly at heart. He believes, all things being consid-
cred, limited school fund.- and other obstacles to
be contented with, that Arkansas has made greater
progress during the past few years than any of the
states. In speaking of the State University he
says: 81 am happy to say, fellow citizens, that
believe we have in our Industrial University an in
stitution of learning, situated in a most healthful
and picturesque country, and that it has an able,
efficient, harmonious faculty, liberal broad cur
riculum, we'll equipped mechanical, agricultural
and industrial art department. where scientific and
practical education may be obtained at minimum
cost, and that it is fast becoming a center of
learning around which will cling the affections and
pride of the people of Arkansas as the Alma Mater
of their noblest sons and daughters. 1t deserves
the liberal support and patronage her people, and
will shed its benign and halowed light on genera
tons of thier posterity yet unborn. May it -four
ish as beacon light to illumine the pathway of
her ship of state, and enable her to steer clear of
the dangerous vortex of ignorance, and to make
sure the foundation of her social fabric, and the
honor and welfare of her people -
