Importance ofa Change of Scene.

well-known medical authority is so strong
an advocate of summer change that he says:
"Change your climate if you can; if you cannot
do that, change your house; failing your house,
rearrange your furniture" Many an old per-
sons years and power of enjoyment have been
happily prolonged by wise changes of scene.
Many man, worn out with the worry and vex-
alton of business, has taken rest away from
all care, and returned to work refreshed and
able to accomplish far more than he could have
done had he struggled on with jaded nerves
and wearied brain. If possible every family
should go away once year for a months stay
under different surroundings; if this is not pos
sible, changes of a week at time will proba-

Diamonds and Rubies.

From the Epoch.
Almost all diamonds come from the Cape,
few from Brazil, and practically none from
India. Among women diamonds and rubies
are still the favorite precious stones, rubies
more than diamonds. just see the difference
in price between diamonds and rubies "Here
is ruby of four to five carats," my informant
continued, holding it up, ''the very perfection
of color, true pigeons blood. 1t is marked
$4,000. Now, it would take an extraordinary
diamond of this size and shape to be worth even
s., 500. In the last few years emeralds are be-
many of them" DamOnd-cutting is still in its

Stand No Nonsense From Their Gods.

From the ST. Louis Globe-Democrat
While the Chinese are, in their way, pious,
their piety is simply matter of barter and sale;
they covenant with their deities to render GER
tain services provided a QHid pro Quo is re-
turned, but if the gods fail ia this the Chinese
do not hesitate to insult an d peat the holy stat
ues, and even threaten them with destruction,
provided better behavior iS not guaranteed for
the future. Mr. Taylor, in his observations on
the Chinese, noted case where an old man
vowed certain offerings to his gods provided
fish did not bite, and the old man not only
deprived his household deities of their allow
ance of rice customarily placed before them,
but even went so far as on the next fete day to
give them no fireworks but sound thrashing
instead.

letter and Boils.

For years 7 was afflicted with an
aggravated case of tetter. I tried To-
tons, salves, soaps, and other out
ward applications, without any bene-
fetal results. In addition to the tet-
ter, boils commenced breaking out all
over my body, causing me so much
pain that I had to quit work and 60
to bed. I then decided that I had
started wrong, and instead of using
external treatment I ought to go to the
seat of the disease and purify my
blood, as it was obviously bad blood
that caused both the letter and the
boils. I took several blood purifiers
without any good effects. About the
time my case was declared incurable
I commenced taking S. S. S. In a few
weeks the letter was cured, and one
by one the boils disappeared, until I
was entirely and permanently cured.
This was three years ago, and since
then have been free from any skin
eruptions. My skin is now, and has
been for three years, as smooth as any
ones. S. S. S. not only cured me of
the letter and boils, but also restored
my appetite and general health, caus-
ing me to increase in weight and i'm
prove in every way.

THAT ELECTION AT PINEWOOD.

MIR. j. N. Welch, of Fulton, has under
taken to represent Gen. Earle, in regard to
onr criticism of Gen. Earle's advice to the
persons who held registration certificates for
Enlton and who wanted to vote at Pine
wood. He says Gen. Earle bases his opin-
ion on an act of the legislature passed in
1855. Our lawyers based their opinion on
an act passed in 1889, just four years later
But then we don't propose discussing law
on our own hook, especially with Mr.
Welch. We have the opinion of two law
vars on this question, and they after having
carefully studied the matter advised US that
voters registered for Fllton could not vote
at Pneyood. Thatle Mr. Welch out, un-
less he can get the law from MIR. Earle or
from some other lawyer. We therefore drop
the subject on that point.
We are not familiar with the geography
OF P,newood. We are told it is very near
fhe line. The postofhce and most Of the
houses are in Calvary township and not in
Fulton. The State election was held in
Calvary township and not in Fulton. So
saw q number of reliable gentlemen who
live at and uear Pinewood. Our remarks
were based OF what these gentlemen told
MS and we believe them to be honorable
gentlemen. There is not a more honest
man in the county than Louis H. Des-
Champs. He and others say Pinewood is
about four miles from Fulton and is princi-
pally in Calvary township.
MIR. Welch says he is q member OF the
county Democratic executive committee, but
yss not consulted when the instructions
were issued to the Democratic managers at
Pinewood not to allow voters registered for
Fulton to vote at Pinewood. We are aware
of this fact, and it was his fault that he was
not present. The meeting was held in pur-
suance of call of the executive committee
itself. MIR. Welch never attended but one
meeting, and that was last August. But, by
yay of parenthesis, we beg leave to differ
from Mi. Welch on his claim to present
membership of the Democratic executive
committee. We are informed that he sup
ported the recent Independent ticket, and
If so we are confident that from his sense of
the fitness of things he will not attempt to
claim any privileges from the county Dem
ocracy. And, another parenthesis, no man
has for the past month been recognized as a
member Of the county Democratic execu-
tive committee unless he pledged his allegi-
ance to the regular Democratic party, and
no man of whose fealty there was the slight
est doubt attempted to be present at any Of
our meetings.
It may not be amiss to state that the Pine
wood box was thrown out by the commits
sioners of election.

Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1890-05-16
Friday. May Is, 1890.

The total Indebtedness of the city of
Mineral Point, on April 8, 1890, ac-
cording to the treasurer's report, was
$9,450.00, with cash balance in the
treasury of $5,843.51. In view of
this favorable financial condition, it
seems to The Democrat that it would
be the part of wisdom to reduce the
city's Indebtedness as rapidly as pos
sible. We are decidedly opposed to
keeping an unnecessary surplus in the
treasury or using money collected for
city purposes in any other way than in
the payment of legitimate city expenses.
The extensive street and sidewalk i'm
proyements that have been made
during the last few years render it
unnecessary TO spend any large sums
for future work of like kind. A spirit
of enterprise is now maifesting itself
among the citizens of Mineral Point,
and if the rate of taxation is reduced
it will prove the greatest incentive for
the establishment here Of new lines
of industry. 4 city free from debt,
and with a low rate Of taxation, is the
best bonus that can be offered to Sc
cure any enterprise. 1t is be hoped
that the city fathers will appreciate
the force of the above suggestions,
and govern themselves accordingly.
