One Stitch at a Time.

ssWhat is the secret by which you
do your work so beautifully" The
uuestioner held in her hand an ex-
ouisite piece of crochet work, wrought |
by the lady to whom the question
was addressed
ssThere is no secret about it, re-
piled the lady 81 only make every
stitch as perfect as | can, and am
careful to put it exactly in the right
place. There isn't one wrong or
careless stitch in all that work. If
/ make a mistake | ravel it out and
correct it..
One perfect stitch at time So
the costly garments of men and
women are put together. One per-
feet stitch at a time.
The noblest lives are lived-one
moment at a time. No moments
wasted no moments carelessly spent;
no moments viciously spent. Wrong
stitches in garments can be picked
out and put in again right. But
who can reverse the tide Of time,
and undo a wrong act, and make it
right?
Some unknown friend left a card
on our desk on which was printed
this: 81 shall pass through th1s

therefore, that / can do OF any kind
ness that / can show to any human
being. let me do it noao, IN HIS name
and for his sake! Let me not ne

TATE SPRINGS, TENN, July 4, 1888.
The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ca:
Gentlenen-Seven years ago contracted
an exceedingly bad case of blood poison. l
tried physician, the best at command, but
securei no benefit My throat began to
get sore, and my body covered with sores
and ulcers. Going from bad to worse,
felt that my grave must be reached in the
near future. I gave up the doctors treat
ment, and with a despairing hope l COM
menced taking your medicine. I began to
improve from the first bottle, and in a short
time the ulcers healed, and my skin cleared
off and was entirely well.
One year ago a case of catarrh developed
in my system. The physician did his best,
but could not cure me; but two bottles OF
Swift's Specific gave me permanent relief.

since Moxie had humble origin in my Office after

to find some process by which the natural food OF
the nerves could be prepared for immediate ABSORB

not so prepare it. At last discovered this mode,
and since the results have made .e most remark
able sale ever known. Twenty years of large prac-
tice taught me that the terrible tired feeling in
women was caused by mal-nutrition of the nerves
I found there was not woman in ten whose
stomach could digest the food for the nerves to a
proper consstence the stomachs of the males aver
aged much better. Having found plant loaded
with their food, I resolved to meet this emergency
The result is scores of helpless paraytcs and ner-

who thought they had constitution, soon found
they had; they had abused their stomachs until
they could not prepare food for the nerves; that
was the matter, and taking Moxie had proved it,

EDITOR CAPITAL JOURNAL =
Though about to return after four
years absence, to California, where
we lived for fifteen years, we find it
very hard to part with so many who
have manifested the kindest feel
ings toward us and our family, and
the generous appreciation of what
ever efforts we have made in behalf
of church, temperance, prohibition
and other good causes. This tiesour
hearts to Salem and her people so
firmly that only the loss of memory
and heart can sever the bands of
friendship. And we rejoice to know
that, though some workmen may
remove to other spheres, God and
good people will carry on the work.
We have ever taken pleasure in
speaking loud the praises of Oregon
with its vast resources and bright
future. And as we are leaving it
lust as the tide of immigration and
prosperity are setting fully towards
it, we shall often tell OF its adj
vantages, with even fuller conf
dence and enthusiasm.
The railroad, with its swift NOV
ing and regular trains, connects
Salem and Fresno, our new home,
and at least an occasional trip back
Is among the anticipated pleasures of
the not far distant future.
More hospitality than character
ICES Oregon people cannot be found
anywhere. But i'm our Fresno
home our latch-string will always be
found on the outside, and handy for
any of our Webfoot friends, and
particularly of Salem and Marion.

charity for ALL" (howeVer much we
may hate and fight all forms of cor
ruption and the iniquitOus liquor
traffic and drinking customs in par
ticular), we subscribe our selves,

q. A. Il. IN POLITICS.

Gen. John NJ. Palmer was cam
didate for Governor in Illinois. He
is democrat and also member of
the G. A. r.. organization. 1t may
be said that he was defeated in the
contest but is unnecessary to add that
he is as mad as tOrmented hornet
oyer the results, Without any JUS
tice he now proposes withdrawing
from the order and encourages as
much dissension as possible. 1t is
unnecessary to acknowledge that a
very large bulk of the G., A. II. vote
say nine tenths or mOre-went to
Harrison. Cleveland and the dem
ocratic leaders have appeared to do
all i'm their power to ale nate the
old soldier therefore they should
be the last TO complain If these
men do not give them their votes,
As the returning Congressman
assemble in Washington and eX-
change views regarding the late
election, the opinion becomes more
general that the tariff, after all, was
only an incident, and not, except
in certain cases, potent factor in
the campaign.
Senator Faulkner of West Vir-
ginia says that Notwithstanding
several democratic mill-owners in
the great manufacturing city of
Wheeling swung out of line, the
Cleveland electoral ticket gained
rather than lost. In other words,
the tariff scare failed utterly to
frightcn the workingmen.
Congressman Yoder tf Oh i,w was Il
candidate for reelection. 1t was
said early in the campaign that the
wool-growers, who are very numer-
Gus in his district, would vote solid
ly against him aud thus insure his
defeat. He was reelected by II ma
jority Of 800 more than he received
two years ago. In his judgement
the pension vetoS of the President
injured him more seriously In Ohio,
Indiana and New York than the
tariff did. ....
General Hovey, who ran on the
GubCrnatorial ticket in Indiana
with General Harrison, also empha-
sizes the fact. ....
Speaking on this subject General
Hovey said: ...
at was soldiers campaign, and
the soldier vote decided the result.
l have no hositancy in saying that
in Indiana alone 10000 democratic
soldiers voted the republican ticket.
| do not believe that the tariff issues
changed 5000 votes either way, and
close analysis Of the returns, be-
lieve, would show that lie influence
was rather against ps than for US.
have no doubt whatever, ifth0
facts were susceptible OF proof that
at least rs mapy democratic soldiers
In New York voted for General
Harrison as the fetal republican ma
jority in that State shows, l know
the way the soldiers in Indiana
voted, because received personal
letters aud corresponded with many
of them, The result shows that
