Tho "Glorious Fourth" was rather
damp one in these par',-as usual. For
while tho clouds were ominious, tho light
ming flashed rapidly and tho rain for a brief
period came down i'll torrents. Tho ardor
OF the patriots was, therefore, considerably
dainpened, but nevertheless some were in
high spirits--or rather tho spi Is were
high in them. The Fourth of July, like
Christmas, comes but once year and on
the principle that ga little nonsense now
and then" otc., tho celebrators may be OK
cused for their oxuberance of spirit.

Our little son will BE- four years of age on
the 25th inst. In May. 1885, he was at.
tackled with very painful breaking out of
the skin. We called in physician. xho
treated bim for about four weeks The
child received little or good from the
treatment, as the breaking out, supposed by
the physician to be hives in an aggravated
forn, became larger in blotehes, and more
and more distressing. We were frequently
obliged to get up in the night and rub him
with soda in water, strong linirnenrs, etc,
Finally, we called other physicians, until
no less than six had attempted to cure him,
all alike failing. and the child steadily get
ting worse and worse, until about the goth
of last July, when we began to give him
CurIcuRA REsoLvENT internally, and the
Cur1cuRA, and CUTIcURA Soar externally,
and by the last of August he was 80 nearly
well that we gave him only one dose Of the
REsoLvENT about every second days for
about ten days longer, and hs has never
been troubled since with the horrible mala.
DIV. In all we used less than one half of .
bottle of CUTEeURA REsoLvENT. and q little
less than one box of CUTIcuEA, and only one
cake of CUTIcURA Soar.

ROSES AND ORANGE BLOSSOMS.

Fitting. sipping, on dainty toes.
A msieien climbs for bright red rose;
Breaking away from the nets control,
Over her shoulders the ripe curls roll,
An indolent stranger, sauntering by,
Stands still to gaze with a startled eye;
And OH the blush on her checks that 81 'ws
Hath shamcd tho hue of that poor wAd rose
The bud that June discloses
July's hot bre:sth will sere
Then Hey for hearty roses
That bloom She livelong year.
The last lone rose in the garden arievess
Dropping to earth its sceutess leaves,
And far and wide ore the russet land
The yellow stocks of harvest stan.l.
But the blush ON the maitlenfs cheek to-day
Is bright as the rose of the ripened May.
Though orange blossoms, faint and fair
Entwine the sheen of her rippIy hair.
The bud that June discloscs
July's hot breath will sere
Then hey for hardy roses
That bloom the livelong year.

ADULTERATIoNoF FOOD DANDDRUGs.

In different parts of the east
crusades have been commenced
against the adulterations OF food
and drugs. The health Inspector
of Newark, N. j., reports some in
teresting revelations as the result
of his investigations. His metho't,
of procedure is to purchase at the
various stores samples Of the arti-
cles he desires and then quietly
make the analysis at his leisure.
The health inspector reports
under his direction the official an
alyst of his department has found
that out of sixty samples of cream
tartar purchased for examinations
only one was absolutely pure
This discovery has stimulated the
investigation, and samples of mus
tards. spices and baking powder
are now in the laboratory of the
analyst.
To foreshadow what may be ex-
pected when he begins work upon
drugs and medicines, the health
inspector says he recently visited a.;
first-class pharmacy and asked the
price of belladonna by the pound.
He was informed that he could
have it in amy quantity at $3.50.
He then went to less reliable
drug store to learn. the price. there
of the same article, and wssa.aston-
ished to learn that he could. get
belladonna for 20 cents a pound.
The difference between $3.50 and:
| 20 cents strikingly represents the
extent of the adulteration in a drug
which is frequently used in Dsedi~
cal practice:
| This work should be- extended to-
every large city in the Unite {
States. A strong crusade against
the adulteration of food and drugs
would result in the desired re-
torn. Oregon has food inspector,
and much good is expected to re-
suit from his labors.

COLD WATER TREATMENT.

The Philadelphia Press announ-
ces that DR.. Baruch, OF the Man-
haitian General Hospital, of New
York, is about to adopt the German
method of treating typhoid fever
cases by the use Of cold baths
The Press declares that the cold
water treatment is something
novel i'm this county, and one physi-
clan in speakingof it cilaracterlzes
it as an :.innovation'' and meth
od likely to meet with much oppo-
sition from the public.
The cold water treatment con
sists of placing the patient IN 9
cold bath whenever his tempera.

reduce the temperature and, if pos,

rapidly consumes, the strength o

proposition. The queen of their

won the ether should accept the
decision in a manly way and seek
some other fair maiden to STARE

A TRAVELLING SALOON.

F The most ingenious method for
beating the no-license law can be
laid to the credit of Brockton Mass
achusetts. This is what it is called
for want of a better term, a travel
saloon. The saloon is big woman
who wears a rubber belt around
her waist filled with pockets in
which are whisky and rum. When
size sees customer she simply
raises her jersey, turns a stopcock
in a flexible tube and permits the
liquor to run into, tin cup which,
she carries in her pocket. The

tect the stores Of the revolutionary
army in Danbury, Matthew Sey-

of Ridgefeld and was the head OF
large family. Hannah, the
youngest, as a schoolgirl, was
the queen of all the picnics, apple
parin's and husking-be She
was a girl of rare beauty and some
thing of firt, not as we OF to-day
define that quality, but in the way
that she loved no one, but accepted
all the young mems attentions as
hers by right. She was a dasMns
brunette, with dark, piercing and
roguisll eyes, and for miles around
the young men came to kneel at
the shrine of Hannah Seymour:
At the age of eighteen Hannah
had developed into handsome
woman. In those days early mar

The statement that II by -
inch beam built up of 2 by IL inch
planks spiked together is stronger
than - by - inch solid timber,
will strike novice as exceedingly
absured, says the Mississippi Val
lev Lumberman. Every mill
wright and carpenter knows it
also, whether he ever tested 1t by
actual experiment or not. The
inexperienced will fail to see why
a timber will be stronger simply
because the adjaeent vertical
longitudinal portion OF the wood
have been separated by a saw;
and if this were the only thing
about it, it would not be stronger,
but the old principle that a chain
is no stronger than its weakest
link comes into consideration.
Most timbers have klGrs in them
or are sawed at angla ~ The grain,
so that they will sp siiagonally
under comparaGivel light load.
In a built up timber no large knots
can weaken the beam, except SC
much of it as is composed of one
plank, and planks whose grains
run diagonally will be strengthen

The Drouth in Other Lands.

The St. Paul Globe publishes the fol-
lowing concerning the drouth. Our
people have no cause to complain by
com parison:
The shipment of cattle from the
northwest has almost ceased. A heavy
business has been done by all railroad
lines during the past few weeks. but it
is now nearly over. Reports from Mon
tana and North Dakota are decidedly
discouragng. In North Dakota the
coming winter will be terribly hard on
the farmers and stockmen. In western
Montana the same state of affairs has
resulted as natural result of the terri
bic drouth of the summer. Eastern
Montana is in little better condition.
The cattle have been driven down from
the western part of the state to the low
lands and prairies Of the east, while
many will be wintered on the Indian
reservations to the southeast. There is
not II blade of grass on most of the
ranches of Dakota and Montana, and
the cattle will have to be fed on hay at
enormous expense, and the loss during
the winter will be very great"

The AustraIidM Foting System.

Testimony comes from Mon
tana that the machinery inc.
dent to the Australian system
of voting which was used at
the late election ran much
more smoothly in all the pre-
cincts than was anticipated.
If there was friction at the
polls the fault lay mere with
judges unskilled in clerical
work than with the system its
elf. After the first hour the
plan worked we'll in the cities,
and although voters were kept
a long time in line there was
but little complaint, Every
elector who presented himself
was taken care of, and in the
larger city precincts about
ninety per cent. of the regis
tered vote was polled.
