POLITICAL BLOOD PURIFIER.

A Reliable Sarsaparilla-What the Hon.
Daniel E. DOwIing. President of New
York Board of Aldermen of 1883, Says.
Good health can only be obtained through
pure blood; pure blood through healthy liver
and kidneys. We all take some kind of Sarsa-
parilla, and so far there is none to equal the
famous Recamier Sarsaparilla, made by Har-
riet Hubbard Aver. The Hon. Daniel e.
Bowling, President of the Board of Aldermen,
New York, gives his opinion of it in the follow
ing letter:
NEW YORK, January T. 1882
Mrs. Harriet Hubbard Aver:
DEAR MADAM-Having tried your Recamier
Sarsaparila remedy for an annoying dis
order of the liver with eminently satisfactory
and immediate results take great pleasure in
recommending it as perfect family medi-
cine. / also found it to be wonderful tonic
and appetizer. Every household should keep
a bottle of it on hand have not felt so well
in years as do now, after taking only one bot
tie of it. Yours, very respectfully,
DANIEL E. BOWLING,
President Board of Aldermen, 1888.
If your druggist does not have RecamIer
Sarsaparilla refuse all other kinds, and send
one dollar to The Reeamier Mfg Co., 50
Park place, New York. and a bottle will
be sent you free of express charges. Un-
like other Sarsapar1llas, it will not force out
an eruption on the skin, it will not deplete the
blood, but enriches it while it purifies it.

The following appeared in the New York
Herald os February %:
NICE, February q, 1SS9.-Sarah Bernhardt
has opened a series of performances tonight at
the Nice Municipal Casino. She is play
ing Fedora" to crowded houses, every
seat being taken, notwithstanding the fact that
the ordinary prices have been quadrupled. The
audience Is highly fashionable. Just in front
of me in the orchestra stalls was the aged faith
er of Victorien Sardou, following adorIngly
every detail of his sons grand work.
"Sarahs magnificent dresses were the admi-
ration of everybody. Her powerful represen-
tation of Fedora and her display of tragic feel
ing were fully acknowledged by the audience.
She was well supported by Pierre Berton as
Loris Ipdnof, and very strong cast"
Madame Bernhardt has set the fashion on
more articles than any other one woman of her
day. She introduced the, following articles,
which have all been immensely popular: The
32button glove. the empire dress, directoire
sash, and the revival of the long boa dear to
the hearts of our grandmOthers. She has set the
fashion for Theodore hairpins and Tosca hats,
and has, in fact, welded an influence over the
world of dress beyond that exercised by any
other woman since the days of the Empress
Eugenie. and while she did not introduce those
mentioned in the following letter, yet she has
used them constantly and expresses her opin-
ion of them in forcible terms:
THE HOFFMAN HOUSE, April q, 1887
DEAR MADAM-The Recamier Preparations
are the perfection OF toilet articles. Please
send me without fail tomorrow two dozen as
sorted for immediate use.
SARAH BERNHARDT
Among the thousands of letters which Mrs.
Aver has received from ladies who are using
the Recamier Preparations. perhaps the most
exquisitely dainty one is from Madame Bern
hardt. Mrs. Aver will be pleased to show it to
any lady calling at her office. 81 Park place.
French women above all others are said to be
more dainty about their persons, and take
greater care of the charms that nature gives
them than any other women. That the divine
Sarah should have used the Recamier Prepara-
tions proves her good Judgment and should re-
mind all women that the most charming feature
is the complexion. that beautiful faces and
hands are above price and can only be secured or
maintained by the use of Harriet Hubbard
Ayers Recamier Preparations; that the woman
whose face is covered with pimples, red spots
moth patches, blackheads ETC., is a repulsive
object to men as well as to her fellow women.
These can all be removed and the complexion
preserved in youthful beauty to old age by
using Recamier Cream according to directions.
Recdmier Powder can be used in connection
with it. 1t is the finest powder made and will
not make the face shine and will not
rub off. OF the Recamier Soap, Madame
Patti wrote Mrs. Aver: "Recamier Soap is
perfect. / thought other soaps good, but had
never tried the Recamier. 1 shall never use
any other. 1t far surpasses all toilet soaps"
If your druggist or drygoods dealer does not
have the Recamier Preparations and Vita
Nuova refuse substitutes and have him order

NEW YORK. December q, 1888.
Mrs. Harriet Hubbard Aver:
DEAR MADAME-The Rev. DIR. Rainsford
has desired me to write and ask you favor.
Last year you most generously donated large
quantity of Vita Nuova for the parish poor. It
has been carefully dispensed and has proved
most beneficial to many.
The last bottle was given few days ago,
and the favor am desired to ask is: Would
you again kindly remember the sick poor by
contributing for their use some more Of your
excellent tonic?
With sincere thanks for the benefit you have
conferred by your gift. Iremain. dear madame,
yours truly, j. E. FORNERET.
Vita Nuova is the best remedy for dyspepsia,
nervousness, sleeplessnesS and oyerwork. It
will assist the weak stomach, it will rest the
weary BRAIN it will "brace up the shattered
nerves. AS it is made from the prescription OF
famous physician. you are not taking quaek
medicine. As it is made by an honest manu-
facturer. you are sure of pure ingredients. As
it is used and indorsed by men and women you
all know and respect. you are not using an un-
known or untried remedy; only be careful to
get the genuine: refuse substitutes.

few hours, as the Pickering lights of. the
Fiftieth Congress were burning low. The
rush of bills and the confusion of tongues"
were simply awful, and no one could fail to
realize that there is altogether too much
''talkee, talkee" in both Houses, and as the
rush and chatter gathered volume toward
the close; I almost wished that there were
more silent Senators like Cameron and
more silent, patient, workers like Errett.
The members seem to think with Senator
Sumner that the whole business of life is to
talk. In this world there is nothing great
but speech. They look on government as a
debating cluby and on life as long argu-
ment. The greatest thing the English Par
lament has given the world is the system Of
parliamentary law that guarantees peren-
nial talk. No wonder the public is tired OF
the Congressional Record No wonder
Congressional oratory acts as an opiate on
the galleries, save on a grand occasion
when people come to see and be seen.
The simple measured words of Edmunds
as he, with hands claspei, rises to present
a motion, are in strange contrast with the
elaborate "gab'' in the lower House. which
in linked dullness long drawn out recalls

not at one time or another be
brought to gaze upon and consider it. The
picture is called "The Decadence of Rome.
1t represents Roman carnival "feast
and fow," participated in by the noble
class of Roman and men and woman under
the Caesars. The central and absorbing figure,
more terrible in her youth and wondrous
beauty than any monstrous human copy
could be, is woman about whom there is
nothing womanly, the soul of whom is
burned out by passion, who reels and
sways as she raises the spilled wine to her
lips.
If there was not about her other men and
women debased as she by long indulgence
in sensous pleasures. she alone would ex-
press the decadence of people and of
period that could be responsible for such an
orgie. At the right of the picture two of
the jewellers, man and woman are press
ing wine to the lips of a marble Cesar, who
looks down upon them with gaze of a
stern, condemning Stole.
A MODERN INSTANCE.
The painting is suggestive in that it is
faithful to the written history of Roman de-
cadence, and that it pictures to the mind as no
written history could possibly do, the con-
dition of the society of State or nation
given up almost wholly to the worship of
money-of shoddy and sham and
who have lost the Republican simplicity
of the elder day. 1 am not
drawing on my imagination, but writing
with parsimonious moderation of what 'the
eye hath seen," and what is known to
thousands, when I say that certain features
of the inaug guration ball on Monday night,
if reproduced in one of the panels of the
Capitol, would not only indicate startling de-
parture from the republican simplicity of the
"Old Oaken Bucket period of our history,
but would viyidly recall sundry "Belshaz-
zar" features that prevailed in the gorgeous
days in Rome that pre-
ceded the decline and FALL" The ball
was the "sassiety" event of the Inaugural
ton, and the big dull red Pension building
was filled to sufocation.
There was sound of revelry by night"
and the sounds were prolonged far into the
auroral hours. The Presidential and Vice
Presidential parties, and Cabinet. and Con-
gressmen, and political "what not" were
there to add splendor to scene that most
people do not witness once in life
time. 1t is very doubtful whether such
modest, unassuming gentleman as President
Harrison, who has never yet worn frock-
coat, would much enjoy such swallow
tailed gathering, and even the stately Lew,
leader of society, millionaire and "all that"

While Ireland is ould Ireland

While Ireland is ould ireland
You'll have forevermore
The bocough and the corrag
Beside your cabin door.
The bocough was the wandering minstrel
and story teller of ireland. He had keen
scent for every spot where geniality and
generosity fourished; but poverty, oppres-
sion and sorrow have long ago withdrawn
the scant cheer that once gave him place
The bocough is gone. But the other one,
the corrag, who requires no raiment, food or
housing, remains within the shadow of the
Irish cabin door.
Throughout Connemara, and particularly
in nv tramp down from the Ballindoon dis
trict to Cloghmore and the sea, saw one of
these silent, dried-up old fellows trembling
in the wind by the door of every hut or
cabin 1 passed. To my fancy each one took
ION separate individuality and seeming
This one stood there defiant, as if repellant
of your approach. That one had saucy
air as if to intimate that fine right"
backbone was concealed about his person.
Another seemed decrepit and weary from
silent vigil out there in the bitter mountain
wind. Another was bent and leaning as
though it could stand no longer. Another
seemed to beckon the passer to enter, or to
hint with weary gesture that you keep upon
your way.
IRELAND'S CURSE.
And many, very many, stood bowed and
sadly attentive as if listening in reverent
solemnity to endless tales of want and woe
that come in hopeless tones from the half
starved souls within. The corrag is but a
tall bundle of limbs or oisers, set before the
door to break the hurt of the savage
mountain blasts, ''the ould man of the
branches" the peasants call it; but one
sometimes feels that this insensate typifed
protector of the Irish cabin was the only OBJ
iect in guise of human that ever got thus
near the man-neglected, God-forsaken
peasantry of this cruelJy-wronged land.
A night was passed at old Cleghmore.
During the evening engaged boatman
for the journey across the northern sea-arm
of Galway Bay to the Islands of Arran. The
distance is from 10 to Is miles, according to
the conscience of the boatman. This ones
was fairly honest, and the distance was but
12 miles, The fare was to be but 2 shIllings
to Killarney Bay, the principal harbor of
great Arran, and but 3 shillings in the
event OF his returning with me. AS the
