A WOMAN'S DISCOVERY.

"Another wonderful discovery has been
made, and that too by lady in this
country. Disease fastened its clutches
upon her, and for seven years she with
stood its severest tests, but her vital Or
gans were undermined and death seemed
imminent. For three months she coughed
necessarily and could not sleep; she bot

cry for Consumption, and was so much
relieved on taking first dose that she slept
all night, and with one bottle has been
miraculously cured. Her name is Mrs.
Luther Lutz" Thus writes w. c. Ham

AREWE TO HAVE ANOTHERWAR9

ARE WE TO HAVE ANOTHER WAR?
Some political prophets aver that we
shall. Be that as it may, the battle waged
by medical science against disease will
never cease until we arrive at that uto-
plan epoch when the human family shall
cease to be afflicted with bodily ailments.
One of the most potent weapons which
the armOry of medicine furnishes. is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which is of
special utility as family remedy, as it is
adapted to the immediate relief and ulti-
mate cure of those disorders of the stom-
ach, liver and bowels which are of COM
monest occurrence. Indigestion, bilious
ness and constipation are inseparable
companions, and these ailments are COM
pletely eradicated by the Bitters. But
the remedial scope of this superlatively
wholesome and genial medicine takes in
also nervous ailments. rheumatism and
kidney troubles; its action in these, as in
the other complaints, being characterized
by unequalled thoroughness. 3-1m

the other day met well-known miser
from whom she had never been able to
extract cent. During the course of
the conversation the lady mentioned
that she had seen his portrait at the

it useless" !" calmly replied the lady, "the

PROP. REMsEN, of Johns Hopkins
University, says that modern chemistry
is by no means prepared to denounce as
chimerical the alchemists' dream of the
transmutation of the baser metals into
gold, as one fact after another has been
found to throw doubt on the theory of
immutable elementary bodies, the latest
being the decomposing by Krause, of Mu-
mich, of what was supposed to be the ell
ementary body of nickel and of cobalt.

PROTECT THE INDUSTRIOUS POOR
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
The Philadelphia Times admits the ne

jects to a policy which protects unjust

No fair minded person will quarrel with
the Times on that statement of the case.
We don't suppose a perfect tariff bill will
ever be drawn up and adopted. How
ever the law may be amended, it must
still have its injustices and permit abuses.
But the law which brings the greatest
good to the greatest number, and espe-
cially guards and favors the interests of
industrious poor people, is the one we
should have, and all patriotic citizens
should be agreed upon that point. No
partisan prejudices should stand in the
way of the adoption of such a law.

THE Democratic newspapers of Ohio
who have been advocating free wool
find themselves in a dilemma. Senator
Payne not only refused to vote for free
wool but refused to vote for amend
ments looking to radical reduction of
the tariff on wool and wooden manufac-
lures. To censure Senator Payne would
be to destroy the goose that lays the
golden eggs; to approve of his course
would combine rank heresy with an
unsavory meal of. carrion crow; to re-
main quiet on the subject angers the
farmer subscribers; and to express edi-
torial opinions too freely irritates the
party bosses, who haven't quite made
up their minds which way the wind
blows. All the old adages about the

DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
matt CommerciaI.Gazette.

Cincinnati COmmercial-GaZette.
The atlanta Constitution has engaged
in the enterprise of spreading informa-
ton and stirring up the enthusiasm of
Southern farmers. In recent issue it
printed several admirable interviews and
letters upon the subject of agriculture.
The lesson of these is the wisdom and
good policy of diversified modes of farm
ing. Planters are advised to make cot
ton the surplus and not the sole crop; to
raise every crop needed on the farm; to
cultivate fewer acres and cultivate them
better; to economic in purchases, and
raise the best things for the market and
strive to get the best prices for them
There is great sense in the doctrine, and
success in its practice.

THE WIFE YOU WANT.

Burlington HaWkeye.
You say you demand domestic, use
full woman as your wife. If that is so,
marry Nora Mulligan, your laundress'
daughter. She wears cowhide shoes, is
guiltless of cOrSets, never had sick day
in her life, takes in washing, goes out
houSecleaning, and cooks for family
of seven children, her mother and three
section men who board with her. l
don't think she would marry you, be-
cause Con Reagan, the track walker, is
her style of man.
Let us examine into your qnalifica-
tions as a model husband after your
own matrimonial ideas, my boy. Can
you shoulder barrel of flour and carry
it down cellar? Can you saw and split
ten cords of hickory wood in the fall so
as to have ready fuel all winter. Can
you spade up half acre of ground for
kitchen garden? Do you know what
will take the lime out of the cistern, ,and
can you patch the little leak in the
kitchen roof Can you bring home a
pane of glass and wad of putty and
repair damages in the sitting room win
dow? Can you hang some cheap paper
on the kitchen? Can you fix the front
gate so it won't swag? Can you do any
thing about the house that Con Reagan
can?
My dear, dear boy, you see Nora Null
ligan wants higher type of true man
hood. You expect to hire men to do
all the mans work about the house, but
you want your wife to do anything any
other woman can do. Believe me, my
son, that nine-tenths of the girls who
play the piano and sing so charmlngly,
whom you in your limited knowledge
set down as mere butterflies of fashion,
are better fitted for wives than you are
for husband. If You want to marry
first class cook and experienced house
keeper do your courting in the intelli-
gence Office.
But if you want wife marry the gir
you love, with dimpled hands and face
like the sunlight, and her love will teach
her all these things, my boy, long before
you have learned one-half your own
lesson.
