Presidents Names.

1t is singular coincidence that there
is only one exception to the rule that
candidates for president whose names
end in N are elected. Tilden is the only
exception. There have been surprising
number Of presidents with the N on the
termination of their Washing
ton, Jefferson, Madison, Jackson, Van
Buren, Harrison, Buchanan, Lincoln and
Harrison. The Republicans had double
chance, because both of their candidates
names end with N, while the Democratic
candidate for vice president, Thurman,
could not overcome such heavy odds.
The presidents elected without an N at
the termination of their names were not
pitted against the unconquerable N. The
president-elect, according to superstitious
traditions, was lucky to have only one
given name. This recalls the fact that
fifteen of our presidents, and Harrison
will make the sixteenth, have had only
one given name.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

The Virtues OF Celery.

New discoveries, or what claim to be
such, of the healing virtues Of plants.
are continually being made. One Of
the latest Is that celery is a cure for
rheumatism; indeed, IL Is asserted that
the disease is impossible IL the vegeta-
BILE be cooked and freely eaten. The
fact that it is always put upon the
table raw prevents its therapeutic pow
ers from being known. The celery
should be cut into bits, boiled in water
until soft, and the water drank by the
patient. Put new milk, with a little
flour and nutmeg, iEto saucepan with
the boiled celery, serve 1t warm, with
pieces Of toast, eat it with potatoes, and
the painful ailment will soon yield
Such is the declaration of a physician
who has again and again tried the ex-
pertinent, and with uniform success.
He adds that cold or damp never pro-
duces, but simply developes the disease,
of which acid blood is the primary and
sustaining cause, and that while the
blood is alkaline there can be neither
rheumatism nor gout.
Statistics show that in one year (1876)
2,640 persons died of rheumatism in
this country, and every case it is
claimed, might have been cured or pre-
vented by the adoption of the remedy
in question. At least two-thirds of the
cases named heart disease are really
rheumatism, Smallpox, which is 80
much dreaded, and which is not half 30
destructive as rheumatism, it is main
tanned by many physicians, can be
prevented by obeying natures laws in
diet. But if you have incurred it, boil
ed celery is unhesitatingly pronounced
specific.
The proper way to eat celery is to
have it cooked as vegetable after the
manner above described. The writer
makes constant use of it in this way
Try it once, and you would rather do
without any other vegetable with the
single exception of the potato. Cooked
celery is delicious dish for the table,
and the most conducive to health ofany
vegetable that can be mentioned.

That Ended 1t.

Some of the greatest orators the world
ever produced have shone their brightest
when some incident or impertinent ques-
ton drew them out. The eloquent and
erratic Tom Marshall, of Kentucky, was
once delivering an address in Buffalo,
N. Y. AS was usual, he began in low
tone of voice. Some one in the rear OF
the hall yelled Louder, louder" several
times. Marshall stood the interruption
some time, then advancing to the front
Of the platform, he raised his impressive
voice to tone that everybody could
hear, and said: "When the last great day
comes and the angel Gabriel blows his
trump to waken the quick and the dead,
then, l suppose, some id cuss from
Buffalo will yell louder, louder" That
ended further interruption.-St. Louis

THE SIN CT OMISSION.

It isn't the thing you do. dsSF,
It's the thing you leave undole
Which gives you q bit Of heartkche
At the setting Of the sun;
The tender word forgotten,
Ths letter you did not write,
The flower you might have sent. dear.
Are your haunting ghosts tonight
The stone you might have lifted
Out Of the brothers way,
The bit Of hearthstone counsel
You were hurried too much TO say;
The loving touch Of the hand, dear,
The gentle and winsome tone
Thai you had no time or thought for,
With troubles enough Of your own.
These little acts Of kindness
So easily out Of mind,
These chances to be angels
Which even mortals find
They come In night and silence.
Each child reproachful wrath,
When hope Is faint and Tagging,
And blight has dropped on faith
For life is all too short, dear,
And sorrow Is all too great
To suffer our slow compassion
That tarries until too late;
And it's not the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone
Which gives you the bitter heartache
At the setting Of the sun.

The doctors have the greatest expert
ence probably of all the other profess
sional men in the world. The Chicago
Medical Standard says the following
story is being told at the expense Of a
prominent surgeon. He was consulted
by the mother of a young man about a
defect which the latter's betrothed had
discovered in her prospective husband.
This was found to be congenital phys
mosis. Circumcision was advised; and
the example of the Jews cited as an
illustration. No Jews lived in the vi
cinity, SO the surgeon was obliged to
perform an imaginary operation in
illustration. Just as he had demon
strated the modus operandi, the future
wife, who had been a concealed inter-
ested listener and spectator, rushed on
him like fury. "No, sir" she yelled,
"you shall cut off nothing" The sur
geon deemed discretion the better part
of valor, and beat hasty retreat.

Mems Dress Don't Suit Her.

wheat in rusty surtout; the Italian
peasant perspires in a cheap ulster; the

as thoroughly uncomfortable as men can
be. Who will teach them the supreme
truth that the man alone is well dressed
who is dressed in keeping with his sta

male dress is as senseless, as ugly and
useless as it at present is, it is absurd to
prate of the taste OF to boast of the wis
