Hear what he says:
| have been practical druggist in
| Tyler for number of years, and in that
time have had occasion to examine, try,
and notice the effect of nearly all the
highly recommended preparations or pat
| ent medicines on the market, and as /
have suffered untold misery myself, the
past number of years, from severe form
OF infiammatory rheumatism, and could
| find nothing to cure or relieve me, had
almost drawn conclusion that all pat
ent medicines were more or less frauds
sntil about one year ago, | was in
duced by friend now living in Tyler, to
try preparation known as 3 B, or Bo.
tanlc Blood Balm, and after long per-
suasion on his part, | finally made up
my mind to make one more effort to rid
myself of the terrible afflction; and it
now affords me the greatest pleasure of
my life to state to the citizens of Smith
county that l am entirely cured, with no
traces of the disease left. and all effected
by the magic healing properties of B. B.
b., which L consider the grandest, purest
and most powerful blood remedy known
to man. l have been subject to in>
fiammatory attacks since ten years of
age, and up to the present time have had
four. The last spell came on me in
November, 1885, over a year
ago, at which time | was
confined to my bed for eight weeks, pass
ing the nights In misery. with no sleep
except when produced by narcotics and
various opiates. The week previous to
using b. b. B. up to that time had only
eaten six meals, and could scarlely sit up
without support but after using three
bottles l was able to relish my meals and
to walk up town, and after six bottles
had been used, thank heaven, | was en-
tlreiy cured, and not the slightest pain
felt since that time. When returned to
business in February, my weight was 145
pounds, but gradually increased until my
regular weight was again attained, 210
pounds. The noticeable fact in what !
have so cheerfnlly stated is, that this un-
paralleled and remarkable discovery, B
b. b. cured me in mid winter, at the
very time my sufferings and misery were
the greatest. | take it on myself as
practical druggist to heartily, cheerfully,
as we'll as conscientlously, recommend
this glorious blood remedy to all sufferers
OF rheumatism or blood troubles, and not
only myself, but the firm OF Mckay &
Adams, who handle it, will cheerfully in
dorse its superior merits.

FIGURING ouV EASTER DAY.

To modern peoples who are ac
cuStomed tocelehrlte anniversaries
Of important events on regularly
recurring dates, arriving annually
on the SANE day of the year and
month, the return of Easter on dii
fcrcnt days and ut irregular inter
valS is quite Il mystery Easter,
which is a survival Of some ancient
religious ceremonial, adopted into
the Christian usages, isnOt reckoned
in the solar year, Dut belongs to
the ancient reckoning by lunar
months. The Hebrews, Chinese,
the ancient MeXicans and other ma.
tions unacquainted with orantedat.
ing the Christian era used the lunur
months in their calendars.
Easter is Il movable feast calcula
ted from the appearance of the first
full moon on on after the vcrnai
equinox. Easter must be eelebrat.
ed on Sunday,and this Sunday must
be the one which follows the full
moon whichappaars on orneXt after
the vernal equinox, which is regular
~ set down for the 2lst of March
Thus, If tllis Sunday coincide with
the full moon and both fall on the
yernal equinox, then tlat Sunday
is not Easter, but tho next Sunday
which follows the next full moon
would be the day celebrated.
Therefore, Easter cannot happen
on the 2lst of March, and the
earliest day it can possibly ocenr il
the I'D Of March, while the latest
is on the 18th Of April
As an example, the last vernal
equinox was on the 2lst of March.
The first full moon after that was
on Monday, the 18th Of April. The
first Sunday following this full
moon is to-day, the 2lst Of April,
which is Easter day.
There are several important
church days which depend on
Easter; one Of the most notable il
Ash Wednesday, the first day oi
Lent, which IL always 46 days be
fore Eastcr-that is, 40 days oI
fasting and 6 Sundays which arc
feast days. A calendar with AZ
elaborate system Of solar and lunai
cycles TO assist in the determine
ton of Easter was calculated nndc
the direction of the Council ofNice
A. ID. 1926. This was revised b'
Pope Gregory the Great in 1882
The recurring Of Easter on vary
ing dates preclude5 the DOssibilitl
ofits being the real anniversary o
what it purports to bc--the resur
rection Of Christ. 1t can only bi
regarded as a memorial of tina
event SO interesting to the Chris
tian Church ~ y. o. Picaynne

OF the monetary situation it is
difficult to speak with any APP
proach to accuracy. Its impor-
tanee, as respects the future of
both business and speculation, is
admitted. But much depends up.
on the action of the Treasury, and
the new. Secretary does not appear
to be in the least hurry to desig-
nate what he proposes to do. To
be sure, business men and bankers
take a cheerful view of the situa-
! ton. 1t is best that they should
do SO, for it prevents unnecessary
apprehension, But there is every
appearance of a squall on the hafi-
zon of the money market. The
spring brings with it an increasing
demand Tor funds in the West and
the interior. Europe, too, is i,retty
sure to draw on us for gold. This

PROTECTION.

The doctrine Of protection
tariff as set forth in the prlnci-
Piles ol the Republican platform,
was the lever that defeated Mr..
Cleveland. People talk md write
very eloquently of free trade and
in theory 1t is splendid, bat when
we come to the matter of direct
apl licatlon andcome square tocdto
business On the ipot hog or die
principle, then wO lind that we too
will favor protection. This pin
clple IS largely exhibited IN the
resolutions set forth by the
Georgia State. Alliance now engag-
ed IN the work of getting home
bagging made out Of cotton. II
was admitted that jute bagging
could be laid down on plantations
81 cents per yard cheaper than the
cotton baggIng and THAT its weight
per yard was alsogl cater. Still the
Alliance people lad sent pledges
that they would pay this large
marginal differenc to encourage
and protect their own home indus
try. Now what IS there in tins
disposition to patronlze the home
bagging at loss to ths farmers,
except that same principle Of
home protection 50 strenuously
held by ono party and denlcd by
Il portion Of the other? Tnc
making Of this Begging will ro-
quIre 100000 bales of common
cotton, give employment to d
large number of labmers and
draw around the centres of its
manufacture host of vegetable
raisefs, machinists, carpenters &e
who otherwise would be without
employment.
Fur her, this determination pro
tects b c enterprise agaln.i
foreign competition by giving til,
trade of the farmers to manufac
turers Of home bagglns at an ex
pensc to tne consumer of 81 cent
per ymd.
This method Of action goe
much fuIther than that contem
plated by the public meu wht
advocate protection.
La the mater Of cOngressiona
protection, the government /
hpnefitied as well as the mauH
facturer but in this matter of tn
bagging the government receive
NOT cent of revenue, but tn
manufacturers receive tins larg
bonus direct from tho hauds o
the consumers. Many democrat
favor tariff for re7snue, but no
for protection, and in fact this j
held up as cardinal free trad
| doct. ind and yet here are lh
farmers of Georgia convened i

/, agree to put a tax upon them

The MOrmOns in Utah.

The election Of nine Gentle members
Of the Utah legislature from Salt Lake
City on Tuesday last gives new evidence
OF the rapid decline OF the political
power Of Mormonism. A few years ago
the Mormons held complete control of
the Legislature, and the small proper.
ton OF Gentiles in the Territory knew
that 1t would be useless to nominate
candidates for it. But great changes
are N progress in Utah. Perhaps as
many as 10000 Mormons have left it
WITHIN the past five wears, taking up
their quarters in territories lying fur
Their to the nor.hward. while during the
same time there has been a heavy influx
Of Gentlles. This influx has increased
50 largely during the year that the
Geutiles now boast OF their power to
gain control OF the Mormon capital st
the next election. and to obtain ma
lor,ty in the Legislature atterward.
II does not appear that the Mormons
are DESERVING their religion, or that the
death oi Brigham Iouns has DESTROYED
Their faith il the peculiar social aud
ecclesiastical system which he establish.
