capricious appetite, heartburn, pulling nervous
symptoms, increased action Of the heart after
eating, sinking in the abdomen between meals,
and fatulence after, are among the successive
indscia Of this harassing complaint. Two things
only are needful for its removal A resort to
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and persistence in
its use. These remedial measures being adopted,
a cure Is certain. Taken Immediately before or
after meals, this great stomachic promotes secre-
ton OF the gastric juice the natural solvent of
the food The nervous and bilious symptoms
consequent upon chronic Indigestion disappear
as the complaint gradually yields to the correct
i've and inyfgorating influence of the Bitters
Appetite returns, sleep becomes more refreshing
and as sequence, the body is efficiently nour-
fshed, muscular power increases, and the mind
gows sanguine. Use the Bitters for chi1ls and

On the platform of public ware
house, the English residents Of Agra,
few years ago, witnessed scene
which put the characteristic trait in
even stronger light. A little street
Arab had spread his pallet in the shade
of a stack of country produce, and
had just dropped asleep, when the pro-
prietor of the Planters Hotel strolled
up with pet leopard that had learned
to accompany him in all his rambles.
A troop of tramp monkeys had taken
post on the opposite end of the shed,
and, like the beggar boy, seemed to
enjoy comfortable siesta, but at sight
of the speckled intruder the whole
gang charged along the platform like
squadron of cavalry, and, instantly
forming semi-circle about the little
sleeper, faced the leopard with brist-
ling names, evidently resolved to de-

PEGASUS is no longer fable. Prof.
George Elliott, the aeronaut, made q
balloon ascension from st. Louis lately
on horseback, the animal being fast
ened to balloon in lieu of a car. The
horse behaved well and seemed to en-
joy the trip in the clouds. The
descent was accomplished safely, and
the pony, after the manner of its kind,
began at once to eat grass.

As to Ex.Presidenfs.

Until the United States shall de-
eide to pension ex-presidents it is right
and proper that they should become
private citizens and nothing more.
Such is the democratic theory, and
such should be the corresponding
practice. They are not "monarchs out
of job" but American citizens, and
they need no other title or distinction.

HOW Do You Like ne

A Republican writing to the
Charleston Star says of Harrison's
policy:
"His policy has broken down un-
der its own weight The Republi-
can party would be stronger to-day
with Cleveland in the Presidential
chair than Harrison. Not mind
full of the country's wants, he has
not called Congress together to re-
lieve it. On the 4th of March, 1899
he set his eye on the 18th of March,
1893, and that has been the object
i've point of his administration; and
to it all other governmental consid-
erations have been made to serve.
He seeks strength from the lowest
elements. He has debased the for
eign service by filling it with third
class minds-the fins and gills and
baekbones and tails of the great
dead"
This is the opinion of one Re
publican. How many more are
there who think the same, but are
ashamed to say SO.

The Republican press is almost
as actively engaged in preaching

1t ignores the fact that the Rcpub-

that during its short reign the con
dition of workingmen is much worse
than it was while Cleveland was
president. In fact, it is very care
full to avoid an explahation of what

Editor Henry " Grady delivered
an address Ut the University Of

of wisdom and warming Mr. Grady
breaches the indiyiduaiism OF the
citizen, and points TO some of the
dangers arising from the ecntrali-
cation of capital:
Economists have held thatwheat
grown everywhere, could never be
concerned BY capital. And yet one
man in Chicago tied the wheat crop
in his handkerchief and held it until
a sewing woman in my city work
ing for uinety cents week had Ia
pay him twenty cents tax on the
sack of -four she bore home in her
famished hands. Three men held
the cotton crop until the English
spindles were stopped and the lights
went out III three million homes
Last summer one man cornered
pork until he had levied n tax of So
per barrel on every consumer and
pocketed a profit of millions. The
Car of Russia would not have
dared to do these things, and yet
they are no secrets IN this free gov
ernment of oursl
But he does not turn in despair
from this dark picture and propose
modified socialism, like the nation,
aIists of Boston, orjPelitical choas
like the anarchists of Chicago. he
lis not tired of the struggle which
must always exist aslong as human
ity loves freedom. Here is his rem
edy.
Bxalt the citizen. AS the State
lis the unit of government, he is the
unit of the State. Teach him that
| his home is his castle, and his SOW,
iereignty rests beneath his hat
Make himself self-respectiig, self.
reliant and responsible. Let him
lean on the State for nothing that
his own arm can do and on tho
government for nothing that his
State can do.

The Pittsburgh Post has been
culIing some interesting items from
the May report of the Secretary of
the Navy, Window. From the re-
port it appears that during last
month the farmers of this country
sent out to Europe and the rest of
the world over three million and a
half barrels of flour, nearly three
million bushels of wheat, more than
three million bushels of corn, and
other breadstuffs such as barley,
cornmeal, oats, rye, etc, the whole
amount exported being valued at
9,762, s64- The total quantity of
breadstuffs sent away from the
United States in the IL months end
ing May 81, 1889, is valued at s111,-
O45,697. The farmer sells this in
markets where he meets the COM
petition with breadstuffs raised in
India, in Russia, in Algeria, in Aus
traIia and in South America. This
makes the cheapest market in the
world. lie buys his supplies in
the highest maket in the world,
where he has to pay 80 to So per
cent duty on cotton goods, as high
as 60 per cent. on earthenWare, &c
to 80 percent. on hats, Is per cent
on machinery, 60 to 20 per cent. on
the wooden clothing he wears, and
20 to 80 per cent on his boots and
shoes. The farmer will learn one o
these days.
