Constitutional Catarrh.

No single disease has entailed more suffering or
hastened the breaking up of the constitution than
Catarrh. The sense of SMELL of taste, Of sight, of
hearing, the human voice, the mind-one or more,
and sometimes all yield to its destSuctive influence.
The prison it distributes throughout the system
attacks every vital force, and makes up the most
robust of constitutions Ignored, because but lit
tie understood, by most physicians, impotently as
sailed by qnacks and charlatans, those suffering
from it have little hope to be relieved of it this side
of the grave Ii is time, then, that the popular
treatment of this terrible disease by remedies with
in the reach of all passed into the hands at once
competent and truStwhrthy. The new and hither-
to untried method adopted by DIR. Sanford in the
preparation of his Radical Cure has won the hearty
approval of thousands. II is instantaneous In at
fOrding relief in all head colds sneeZinfi, snufing
and ObStructed breathing, and rapidly removes the
most oppressive symptoms, clearing the head,
sweetenns the breath, restoring the senses Of
smell. taste and hearing, and neutralZing the con-
stitutiOnal tendency Of the disease towards the
lungs, liver and kidneys.

WHAT THE CHIMNEY SANG.
r the ehlmney the night wind sang.

Over the chimney the night wind sang,
And chanted melody no one knew;
And the woman stopped and her babe she tossed,
And thought of the one she had long since lost,
And said as her teardrOps back she forced,
81 hate the wind in the chimney"
Over the chimney the night wind sang,
And chanted melody no one knew;
And the children said, as they closer drew,
'Tis some witch that is cleaying the black night
through,
'Tis fairy trumpet that just then blew,
And we fear the wind in the chimney"
Over the chimney the night wind sang,
And ehanted melody no one knew;
And the man as he sat on his hearth below,
Said to himself, 1T will surely snow,
And fuel is dear and wages low,
And I'll stop that leak in the chimney
Over the chimney the night wind sang,
And chanted melody no one knew;
But the poet listened and smiled, for he
Was man, and woman and child, all three,
And said 1T is Gods own harmony,
This wind we hear in the chimney

POLITICAL AGENTS.

Harper's Weekly.
The exposure of the scheme to convert
Postmasters into local spies for the ben
eft of the party of the Administration
promptly arrested public attention, and
compelled change in the plan of opera
tions. The scandal was Immediately ap-
parent, and the exposure has been of SER
vice. 1t seems, however, that
exposure and remonstrance have not pre-
vented the issue of the circulars.
1t is putting the service into politics in
a manner which flouts and defies the
Presidents warning, and discredits and
ridicules his public declarations.
1t seems to us that the head of the Ad-
ministration is bound to ascertain the
facts, and, if they are as alleged, to show
in the most public and unmistakable way
his disapproval. Silence and and mac
ton can be interpreted by the subordi
nate officers of the Administration in one
way only. If an Assistant Secretary of
the, Treasury can engage in this kind of
campaign work without censure, and
with implied approval, every Postmaster
and subordinate officer in the country is
justified in believing not only that he
NAV do likewise, but the more zealously
the better.

TNFANTILE SKIN DISEASES.

Our eldest child, now six years of age, when an
infant six months old was attacked with virulent,
malignant skin disease. All ordinary remedies
failingwe called our family physician, who attempt
ed to cure it, but it spread with almost incredible
rapidlty, until the lower portion of the little fel
lows person, from the middle of the back down to
his knees, was one solid raSh-ugly painful, blOtch
ed, and malicious. We had no rest at night, no
peace by day. Finally, we were advised TO try the
Cuticura Remedies. The effect was simply marv-
elOus. In three or four weeks complete cure was
wrought, leaving the little fellows person white
and healthy as though he had never been attacked.
In my OPINION your valuable remedies saved his
life and to-day he is strong, healthy child, per-
fectly well, no repetition having ever occurred.

CARLYLE's thought that "there is no
"human life, faithfully recorded, but is
"an heroic poem of its sort rhymed or
"unrhymed," is forcibly called to mind
by the following incident of one of the re-
cent Dakota billiards.: Mrs. Mary Chap
man, the young wife of settler in the
central part of the Territory, remained
alone at home while her husband was
away looking after his cattle. The storm
came suddenly, and it was nearly three
days before he was able to get through
the drifts back home, and when he en-
tered the cabin he found his wife living
insensible on the bed. There was just
food enough left for meal for her hus-
band, and she had gone without eating
for two days rather than touch crust of
it. When brought back to consciousness
the suffering woman cried; so, jim! l
Thought you might come home nearly
"dead with hunger"

THE Mississippi methods are making
way in Ohio. If colored people are to
be disfranchised in the South, why not
in the North? More than that, the
prejudice against colored men in the
South voting is not so much on account
of their complexion as because they are

IT is in early life that the habit of
promptness may most easily be acquir-
ed. Parents should accustOm their chill
dren to choose and decide many things
for themselves, teaching them to think
quickly and effectively, prohibiting
changes without sufficient cause, and al
lowing them to experience the natural
consequences of their determinations.
In this way they will gradually learn to
bear responsibility and to acquire as
much rapidity of thought and word as is
consistent with its Importance and eff
fectiyeneSS.

WORTH MATCHING.

Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette
The people Of Louisiana will elect a
Governor and other State officers on
April II, and the election promises to be
one of unusual interest and Importance.
The Legislature to be chosen will elect
two United States Senators, so that the
result will have direct bearing on Ma
tional affairs. Mr.. Cleveland and the
whole Democratic party, North and
South, will look for a solid majority.
The Republicans are making an earnest
canvass under the direction of their can
didate for Governor, Mr.. Yarmouth,
while the Democrats are wrangling
among themselves.
Gov. McEnery has publicly pledged
himself that there shall be free ballot
and fair count. His promise was
made while he was candidate for re-
and having been beaten, it
would be natural that he should try to-
redeem his pledge. 1t so happens, how
ever, that he is a candidate for United
States Senator, and he is politician enough
to know that if Republican Governor
should be elected Republican Legisla-
ture would be among the probabilities.
Hence it is not surprising that ex-Sena-
tor Kellogg should have reached the
conclusion that the old methods of in
timidation and bulldozing are to be
practiced.
Under fair election, as promised by
the Governor, the State would give War
mouth majority of 10000 or more, but
under the Mississippi plan, supplement-
ed by ballot-box stuffing, the Bourbon
majority can be made higher than ever.
The Governor, who pledged his "honor"
that there should be fair play, now tacks
about and sets up the miserable plea
that "vice and Ignorance must not tri-
umph" in the State! The Republicans
may not be able to win, but they are at
least determined to make a hard fight
and to expose the methods used to de-
feat them. The election will be worth
especially from the stand
point of the North, where every Demo-
crat has the right to vote and has his
vote honestly counted.
