When Ed. McDermOtt was committed
to an insane asylum the other day the
strongest evidence against him was the
fact that he wrote poetry. The fol-
lowing was one of his effusiOns,
which, it must be confessed, compares
quite favOrably with some Third street

ing public:
Here lies the man whose crown was won
By blowing in an empty gun,
And met the girl on heavens green
Who lii the fire with kerosene.
Deal with him gently, brush off his clothes,
Somebody hit him dab in the nose:
Too late in the season he wrote brief ode
Simply entitled How SweetlF it showed.
Speaking of verselets, here is pro-
phetic gem that appeared in the News

the suspension bridge replaced by a

To assert that farmers are pros

To assert that farmers are prosper
GUS is mockery Of their condition.
What in the name of Heaven could
make them prosperous? They are
not getting cost for anything they
have to sell, with perhaps the bare
exception of sheep and horses. Every.
thing is SO low in price as to puzzle
the farmer as to what he is to do tC
make both ends meet. False condit
Ions and evil systems have pretty
nearly crowded him to the wall
Combinations, trusts and money
sharks have almost throttled him.

He Sent Eighty Miles for It.
Milo Page, of San Bernarnino, CAL,
on Sept. Z, writes as follows:
In 1858 was taken with bilious col
ic, being then seventeen years old.
Yearly attacks followed, and ut
length they became more frequent.
In 1872. while residing in Oakland, l
suffered severely from this disease,
and was informed by DIR. Pinkerton
that it was chronic and incurable.
While Frustrated by q severe attack
q friend induced me to take large
dose of Walkers Vinegar Bitters,
Old Style. probably four wine glasses
full. In less than half an nour was
free from pain. l followed this up
with three wine-glasses day-OEa,
half au hour before each meal-until
I used up the bottle.
For over seven years was perfect
" free from bilious collie, but in the
fall of 70 / was engaged in mining in
Nevada, and the coarse food | ate
brought on sharp attack. l was
far from any drug store, but l dis
patched courier eighty miles for a
bottle of Vinegar Bitters.
When he returned l was unable to
speak, but / put the bottle to my lips.
took two swallows, and in twenty
minutes the pain left Inc. / finished
the bottle az before, taking three
doses daily, and for nine years after
ward / was perfectly free from the
dreaded disease.
A month ago it returned, but try
ing the old remedy, Vinegar Bitters,
I was cured, as before.
Il write this hooanSo uop, do not no
pecially recommend Vinegar Bitters
for bilious collie. Only those who
have suffered the agonies of this dis
ease, can understand what q boon q
sure cure is, and in Old Style Vinegar
Bitters yon have the best, and per.
haps the only real remedy known.
In reply to Mr.. Page we will say
that Vinegar Bitters cures hundreds
of diseases; we have not the space to
catalogue them, and perhaps if We
published them those unacauainted
by experience with our valuable rem.
edy might doubt it's efficacy still, al
SO many worthless preparations are
SO many entrayagant ways.
The fact remains, however, that
those who have been accustomed te
take Vinegar Bitters for any length
of time, are hale and hearty, whether
they are young or old. Those whs
doubt and fail to take it are likely Il
fall into all manner of ailments, grea,
and small. Vinegar Bitters, both Ole
and New Styles, keep those who tax,
them fresh, fair, healthy and young
Hooking, and when we one,
gain customer, we keep them al
ways, like Mr.. Page, who sent eighty
miles for Vinegar Bitters, and it wa

Contraction of money is the great
engine Of GENERALIZATION. As regular
as the ebb and flow OF the tide has
this alternate expansion and contrac-

country for the past twenty-five years
and with each recurring ebb OF the
financial tide, more wrecked homes,
more ruined hopes. more tenant

have piled up prodigously. Thus it
