A tonic is what nervous people require.
To impart strength into the nervous or
ganism is to insure its tranquility, pro
vided causes of unhealthful excitement
are avoided A medicinal tonic that
like Hostetter's Stomach Bitters-cOm-
mands the unqualified sanction of the
healing profession, and which institutes
a general reform in a bilious. dyspeptic
and debihtated condition of the system,
is surely entitled to d careful trial by In
telligent people, capable of forming due
estimate of medicine, from emphatic
and often recorded professional evidence
in its behalf. Not only are the nerves
and stomach invigorated by the Bitters,
but the system is also endowed with un-
wonted power of resistance to influences
in air. water or daily avoca,ion subver-
siVe of health. Prominently dangerous
among the first named of these is malaria,
against which Hostetter's Stomach Bit

Words for the Picture.

1t is amusing to see children of 3 or years,
who sometimes take book or a paper and
"jabbern away for half an hour at a time,
pretending to read the most amazing state
ments and romances, when they do not know
one letter from another.
Harper's Young People tells of little girl
who was precocious in this direction. One
day she was asked to explain picture repre-
senting a lady and gentleman waltzing.
The infantile seer gazed intently upon it
for a few seconds, and then exclaimed, with
q theatrical air:

We have already called attention
to the Republican dilemma in In
diana, but Indiana is not alone.
The whole West quivers with vol
canic fires, ready to burst forth, in
terrible eruptions and bury the
Republican party in irretrievab!e
ruins.
Day before yesterday the Demo
cratic National Committee was in
session in New York City for the
purpose of taking counsel together
and perfecting plans for the cam
paign. AT an informal conference
several members of the committee
reported the progress Of the canvass
in their respective localities.
Mr.. Richardson, the representa-
tive from Iowa placed that State

States. 81 consider Minnesota,

THERE'S NEVER A DAY.

Written for FISHERMAN & FARMER.
There's never day there aint some
work,
Some job for fellow to do,
So don't put it off, don't try to shirk
The duties imposed OIL you;
But with free good will put your hand
to the wheel
And drive like life was DEAR
Successful or not there's no dry rot
On your conscience, twill be clear.
There's never a day there aint some
pain,
By action, word or deed,
Inflicted as you try to gain
The better of grim old need;
But with honest heart just do your part
And manfully bear the cross,
And the time will come when the added
sum
viii show more profit than loss.
There's never day, good friend, but
what
You'll have your trials to bear;
What good would be the gold you We got
If you had no one to share?
How could you tell that all was we'll
If never you knew the ill?
You would not prize the summer skies
Without the winter chill.
