1t was just an ordinary scrap of wrap
ping paper, but it saved her life. She was
in the last stages of consumption; told by
physicians that she was incurable and
could live only short time; she weighed
less than seventy pounds. On piece of
wrapping paper she read of DR. Kings
New Discovery, and got sample bottle;
it helped her; she bought large bottle;
it helped her more; bought another and
grew better fast; continued its use and is
now strong, healthy, plump, weighing 140
pounds. For further information send

JAMESTOWN, n. Y, April 21.-The

dergast woods, four miles from this city

home last Friday morning, it is now
thought he died from exposure. His
clothing was folnd scattered along the
road, near where the body was dis
covered.

Foreign and Home Production.

When your external profits come to
you in the form and substance of COM
peting products, which (by cheapness
unnatural to our climate) destroy home
production, you are only gaining with the
one hand what you are losing from the
other, with the prospect Of an insecure
future, since production abroad can never
be under control as can that within your
own borders.-Fair Trade, London.

RELATIVE to the excitement about
the prohibition of Bible reading in the
schools of Wisconsin, a remark by one
of the Supreme Judges of the State is of
interest. He says that while the book
may not be read for religious teaching,
there is nothing to prevent its reading
before the whole school as work of
history, or literature, or anything, except
religion specifically.

He has been a victim of gout for
great many years, which attacked him
in his joints and sometimes got into
more delicate portions of his system and
threatened his life. He fought the gout
with the most intense remedies, such as
lavele, and it is said to be the tendency
of this disease to grow,and the tendency
of the medicines to fail in time. Some
times the attacks of the gout would
put Mr.. Randall out of his mind with
pain and anxiety. He has been a poor
man almost all his days, having very
little to live upon except his Congress
sional salary. He was not lawyer in
the inception of life, but merchant,
and has had his principal support from
merchants, so at his bedside we see
Postmaster General Wanamaker an at
tentive friend. The citadel of Mr..
Randall's power has been personal ply
steal force, an unyielding spirit Of ma
ture which becomes more aggressive the
more it is opposed. Very probably Mr.
Randall's place in Pennsylvania politics,
which has always been something of an
episode, will now be left without sue
ceSSOr.

Randall never put his hand to dis
honesty nor devoured the revenue of the
country for specific appropriations more
or less unnecessary. He has sometimes
been too close and cheese pairing in his
control of the purse-strings. The patron
age which had been given to Randall by
Cleveland was all taken away. His
more contemplate servitors were order
ed to get up and make reeantation in
the State Convention. He never was a
public power in the country until he had
thus been publicly stripped of his patron
age, and from that day to this he has
been rather a favorite among all men
who love mercy better than glory. He
refused to vote for the Tariff bill which
was reported by Mr.. Carlisle, Mills and
others and turned to the Southern men,
bers and told them that he understood
them. Voices arose of of 'Don't say it, p"
but he said it. Ever since Mr.. Randall
has been an invalid.

"REMINISCENCES OF RANDALL.

George Alfred Townsend Gath in the
Cincinnati Enquirer of Thursday con-
tributes an entertaining chapter about
public men and especially concerning the
life and character of the late Samuel
Randall from which we CLEAN the fol-
lowing:
have often been at loss to account
for Samuel J. Randall because had the
misfortune to know him when he was a
city politician in Philadelphia and was a
fresh Congressman at Washington, in
different about his associates and his
habits. Like General Grant, he shook
his habits off in the main after he had
served some time in the Capital, and
therefore almost imperceptibly, and
partly by means of his duration in place,
he became the first formidable candidate
of the Democracy for Speaker after it
had obtained majority following its
mistakes in the civil war. Immediately
however, we detected qualities in Randall
we had not suspected-such as retalia-
ton. He never forgave the combination
which elected Kerr over him, and which
was in the main got up outside of Con-
gress between the pessimistic elements
around New York and the old Southern
element looking for some line of sug-
gestion. The war converted Randall, if
not to be a Republican, to be believer
in the new material system which had
come about through the necessity for
war tariffs, war currency, National
Banks and home manufactures.

By the time the Democrats got control
of the Government, after being out al
most twenty years it was supposed that
Randall would go through with whoop.
The money tinkering influence in New
Y ork, however, which had for its head
quarters the NeoO York World, joined
with elements from the West and South
and brought forward Michael Kerr for
Speaker. His triumph excited Mr.. Ran
dali to the last degree, and when subse-
quently Kerr, who was dying man
when elected, passed away from this
stage, and Mr. Randall took his place he
retorted upon those who had invented
Kerr, chief of whom was Mr.. Morrison,
of Illinois.

THE papers are now publishing, as a
matter of news, reports that Grover
Cleveland was "knifed" in the last Pres
idential campaign by Samuel J. Randall
and other high tariff Democrats. They
may call it "knifng," or whatever they
please, but it has been well known ever
since the last Presidential election that
Mr.. Cleveland did not receive the support
of the protective tariff wing of his party.
1t was announced before his nomination
that many Democrats who favored pro-
lection to American industry would not
support him. The men high in the
party councils, like Mr.. Randall, quietly
withdrew their support from the ticket
while workingmen who understood the
value of protection, and who had formerly
voted with the Democracy, openly op-
posed the free trade candidate. The
same kind of "knifng" will go on in '92
if the Democratic party supports free
trade.

TIE Rev. James G. Townsend, of the
Unitarian Church. does not believe with
the Rev. Mr.. McCrory that God directed
the cyclone to kill and MAIN the people
of Louisville by the hundreds, the inno-
cent and guilty, the.old and young alike,
"to remind sinners of their danger and
cause them to turn to the Lord for
refuge" and pertinently asks these ques-
tions: "Has God no better way than
this to bring men to him? Did the cyclone
add one member to Mr.. McCrory's
church; and, if one did join because of
it, what would the pitiable cur be worth?''
Most people VIII prefer the God of love
of the Rev. Mr. Townsend.
THE Senate has saved the National
honor by defeating the House anti
Chinese bill, which, under the guise of
a census measure, hagrantly violated our
treaty with China, and so brought re-
proach upon the American name. This
was the most important feature of this
reprehensible bill. Next to this was the
consideration that, if passed, it would,
in all human probability, have led to
speedy retaliation upon American inter
ests in China. The defeat of this meas
ure by the Senate will be of great value
to our Eastern trade, as it must be re-
ceived by China as the first evidence it
has had in a long time that the United
States intend to observe their treaties
