NcLANEs LIVER PILLS.

When the celebrated DIR. Rush declared that
drunkenness was disease, he enunciated n
truth which the experience and observation Of
medical men Is every day confirming. The
many apparently insane excesses OF those who
indulge In the use OF spirituous liquors may
thus be accounted for. The true cause OF con-
duct which Is taken for infatuation, IL very
frequently diseased state OF the Liver. No or
gan In the human system when deranged, pro-
duces more frightful catalogue of diseasesi
And ", Instead Of applying remedies TO the
manifestations of the disease, as IL too often
the case physicians would prescribe with view
to the original cause, fewer deaths would result
from diseases induced by deranged state of the
Liver. Threcfourths OF the diseases enumer-
ated under the head Of Consumption have their
seat In diseased Liver. The genuine DIR. G.
McLanes Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming
Bros, Pittsburg, Pa, are "a sure cure.
Mr.. Jonathan Houghman, of West Union,
Park Co., Illinois, writes to the proprietors,
Fleming Brothers, of Pittsburg, Pa, that he had
suffered from severe and protracted attack Of
fever and ague, and was completely restored TO
Lanes Liver Pills alone. These Pills unques-
nonably possess great properties, and can be
taken with decidedadvantage for many diseases
requiring invigorating remedies, but the Liver
Pills stand pre-eminent as the means Of restOr-
ing disorganized liver to healthy action !;
hence the great celebrity they have attained.

Hooker, of Mississippi, to retain his seat
Gen. Hooker is one armed Confederate
hero. and one Of the most popular men
in congress. Republicans like him as
& well as the Democrats do, for he is a tine
specimen of the old style gentleman. with
I a politeness that is fairly princely and
grand way of saluting even the hum
blest of his acquuintances. He has three
sons, who, fortunately, are as like him
as lot of peas in one pod. 1t is very

who are all tall and Of fine military bear.

Gen. Hooker was talking recently of
the difference between the campaign
methods prevailing in the north and
those OF the south. "When first came
to congress" said he, Fernando Wood
and other wealthy gentlemen from New
York were here, and we were chatterinc
one day about how much it had cost
them to be elected.
Zone gentleman said his campaign had
cost him 10000. Another said his sal

ion expenses. Finally they asked me

After the first shock of Joy was over,
Mrs. Raynor asked Ruth how she
learned of her misfortune. 1t was
easily explained. Mention OF the fact
that the county had taken charge OF
Mrs. Raynor was made in one of the
newspapers. A copy Of the paper con-
! tanning this paragraph was wrapped
around an express package and sent
to the town in Missouri where Ruth
lived. and by accident fell into her
hands. After reading il she started at
once to find her former benefactress,
and never rested until she reached the
| almshouse.
And now, mother" she said, you
are going with me to live, for am mar
ried and have happy home in which
you snail be loved and cared for as long
as you live. l owe every thing of good
that has ever come to me to your kind
ness in the past, and am grateful for L
chance to re pay you"
Mrs. Raynor lay quite still, too full of
gratitude and JOY to speak.
"And this is New Years morning."
said Ruth: Let me kiss you again Tor
Happy New Year"
The words OF old Nancy's song tloated
in once more. How sweetly they sound

broken as was the voice which sang

HE TASTED THE WINE.
How q Childish Inquisltor Cornered Ills
Mother.

1 was visiting at one time, says a
writer, very dear friend, whose little
son had not yet dropped his lisping &C.
cent The pastor, who was a frequent
visitor, was dining with us, and the lit
tie boy. remarkably well-behaved
child, was allowed to sit at the table.
The flow of conversation passed without
interruption, and not word was spoken
by the child, until the desert was served,
with very delicious sauce prepar ed
after the most approved recipe, with
the required proportion Of wine inco r.
porated. Then he asked: Mamma,
what it'll thith thauth made of? 1t
tathes very, very good" Tho mother
replied: "Butter and sugar" thinking
that would satisfy the young inquiting
mind. He tasted again, then asked:
what eth it'll it made of? l talhe
thomething eth" A glance across the
table from the minister, seemed to say
to the mother: "You are in a corner
now; wonder how you will get out of
it." She then mentioned the spices
and other ingredients, still emitting
wine. The child said again: 1T it'll
very good" and cor sinued eating.
Presently he looked up, as IL from a
brown study and said: Mamma. aren't
you glad we are not the kind of folkth
that cath whithky"'
All present yielded to unrestrained
merriment, except the mother, to whom
the artless question came like an &C.
cusation, and made an impression which
lasted through her lifetime. The reso.
luton was formed, there and then, that
her boy should never become familiar
with the taste of wine or other liquors
at her table, and thus fall an easy prey
to temptation in after years. From that
time she never allowed one drop of in
toxicating liquor to enter into any part
of the food of the family.

That evening Mrs. Raynor said to her
husband: George, want to bring little
Ruth Hunter here, put some decent
clothes on her and send her to school
this winter with our children. My heart
aches for the poor neglected little
thing"
Mr.. Raynor arched his eyebrows re-
provingly. You'll be sure to rue phi
lanthropy of that kind, my dear. It's a
risky thing to bring q barbarian like
her among civilized beings. You don t
know how she might injure our own
children"
''rll look closely after all of Them"
said Mrs. Raynor why, the poor lit
tie thing has had no chance to be any
thing but barbarian. believe there's
plenty of good in her if some one would
take the trouble to develop it. Besides,
l believe we all commit sin when we
see children growing UP like savages
before our eyes and never lift Il finger
to save them. Our duty does not end
with looking after CIR own"
''Wcll, well, have it your own way"
said Mr.. Raynor ~, too. feel sorry
for the poor little waif; but hope you
will not rue it
Next morning Mrs. Raynor went to
the Hunters to ask for Ruth. "What
do you say, daddy?' asked the apathet-
ic Mrs. Hunter, as she sat in hideous
rags with dirty baby on her lap, after
she had heard Mrs Raynor's request.
do as We like about it" said the
fond father. Young uns are most too
thick around here"
well, We ken take her." said Mrs.
Hunter, nodding to Mrs. Raynor, IAN
if she don't like it over there among
your young uns she can come back any
day" This was said in the most indie
pendent and airy fashion, as though
there was every possibility that Ruth
might not like life in the Raynor fam
lily at all.
Mrs. Raynor smiled as she thanked
Mrs, Hunter, and then she took Ruth
home with her.
The child was overioyed. Nice clothes
and kindness soon developed her self
respect and she loved her benefactress
as only a young savage can love. She
was bright and quick, and learned with
surprising rapidity. The winter went
by and she still remained at the Ray
nors. The summer and another winter,
and year after year slipped away and
she was still there.
At last Ruth was twelve years old,
and very sweet and lovely Ruth she
had grown to be. Her comfort and Joy,
however, were soon to end. One day
her mother came over to the Raynors
and told Ruth that they, the Hunters,
were about to move ''out West" and she
must go with them. Tears and en-
treaties were of no avail. The misera-
BILE, ignorant woman had long been
jealous of Ruth's affection for Mrs.
Raynor, and she now declared that Ruth
must come home and share the fortunes
of the family. So the poor child went
away with her unlovely family into a
life that was hateful to her. For time
she wrote frequently to Mrs. Raynor,
but as the years went by letters came
less frequently, and at last, after the
Raynors removed to another town, they
ceased to hear from Ruth altogether.
Time moved on and brought sad
changes to the Raynors. One by one

the rosy-cheeked children sickened and
died, and Mr.. Raynor soon followed
them. Mrs. Raynor found herself alone
and penniless, for her husband s affairs
were in bad way, and his property
had been seized by his creditors
She struggled for time, but sickness
eventually overpowered her, and, as she
was destitute, she was taken to the
almshouse.
Here, on New Years morning she lay,
helpless and sick at heart. She put her
thin hand over her eyes to hide the
tears of humiliation which trickled
slowly over her checks. Silently she
asked herself how she had sinned that
she must be punished thus? Had she
not always given out kindness wher-
ever and whenever she could? Had not
her heart always been full of pity,
mercy and ch ar!ty, and her hands ready
to help the needy2 Yet here she was,

her humiliation came upon her.
Somebody began to sing in the next
room. 1t was poor old Nancy. one of
the county's feeble-minded children.
In quavering voice she sung:
Bread upon the waters cast
Shall be gathered at the last"
The words blaZed before the brain of
Mrs. Raynor and she repeated them
doubtingly:
Bread upon the waters cast
Shall be gathered at the last"
All, but it was not true-the promise
/ in these words was not true, it was not
true. Had she not cast her bread upon
the waters in deeds of kindness, again
AID again? Yet here she was, forsaken.
The tears gushed forth anew-tears of
such misery as many an eye which has
known sorrow is still stranger to.
The door opened softly. Somebody
entered, but Mrs. Raynor did not re-
move her hand from her eyes.
Mother" said an eager voice,
Mother Raynor."
Who could call her mother? Surely,
every voice that had right to address
her by that name was hushed in death
The next instant a pair of arms were
about her, and young lips were kissing
her faded ones. Mother, my true

guish Poverty and CriEne.
There are in New York and Brooklyn
fourteen thousand licensed liquor sa-
looms, usually situated upon street cor
ners, so that the average frontage of
| each must be at least twenty-five feet.
! If these saloons were extended in a
straight line side by side and touching
| each other, there would be row of
groggeries extending three hundred and
fifty thousand feet, or trifle more than
sixty-six and one-quarter miles in
length. This is just about two-thirds
the distance between New York and
Philadelphia. On an average it is esti
mated that fifteen dollars per day, fro
thousand five hundred dollars year. ie
spent in liquor in each; less amount
and they would fail Multiply this by
| fourteen thousand, and we have an ex-
penditure of seventy-six millions and
six hundred and fifty thousands of dol
lars every year and for strong drink
alone in the metropolis and its suburbs.
| This gives an average of twenty-five
dollars for every man, woman and child
within the specified area. Let us sup
| pose this seventy-siX million six hun
bred and fifty thousand dollars applied
to the rent, food, fuel and clothing Of
the class from which it is chiefly drawn.
What would that mean? 1t would mean
the abolition of dire poverty. 1t would
mean the wholesome apartments, nour-
ishing food, and decent clothing. Prop
erly speaking it would mean the ex-
tinction of mendicancy and pauperism.
1t would also mean the rearing of chill
dren in decercy, so that the next gene
ration would be far above the present
1t would mean the beginning OF q new
era. Widening our observation from
the metropolis to the entire country, we
find that two hundred thousand saloons
withdraw four hundred thousand men
from productive industries, and absorb
outright one hundred million dollars
These stupendous facts tell their own
story and draw their own moral. Let
us suppose that these millions Of dollars
spent for beneficence, for the building
of beautiful homes, and for the endow-
ment OF schools devoted to science. art,
industries, education and religion!
