A Necessity of Health.


1t is prime necessity of health that the ac-
ton OF the bowels should be kept regular. But
the way to overcome temporary fit of con
stipation, or to remedy chronic costiveness, is
not to deluge the stomach and drench the
bowels with purgatives of violent and painful
action The happy medium between an in
operative and violent cathartic is Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which acts just sufficiently
upon the bowels to relax them, without pain,
and which being a wholesome tonic, as we'll as
aper1ent, has the effect of strengthening both
them and the stomach, and promoting the we'll
being of the whole internal economy The re-
moyal oh OF bile from the blood, increased activity
OF the liver usually dormant in cases of costive-
ness, and sound digestion follows the use of
this 6enehcent medicine, as thorough and
position. Rheumatism, fever and ague. kidney
troubles and debility are also remedied by it,

education. The students had rebelled against
the unnecessary and tyrannical restrictions
imposed upon them, and Izmaloff, as one OF
the tutors, was In the act Of quellipg the dis
turbance when arrested; his being In the
midst OF the rioters was sufficient excuse for
the unlawful act. Thus was another bright
life crushed by the oppressor.
After becoming acquainted our time was
passed In discussing various scientific ques-
tions, and In relating interesting stories of
our past life. As became true Russians, we
all played cards. The government allows a
prisoner, IL n nobleman, fifteen kopekas a
day; TO the peasant and other not privileged
classes seven kopekas per day is allowed for
their maintenance. Each prisoner must fur
nssh his own food from the sum allowed.
The first act OF the politicals on forming a
party, either in prison or on the road, is To
elect n starosta or elder to manage their af-
fairs; TO him each prisoner gives so many
kopekas per day, and from IL he supplies their
wants. He is like a general superintendent,
taking charge of everything IL not infre-
quently happens that the politicals are well
supplied with money. In such cases life. of
course, is much smoother than for the poor
fellow who must exc out an existence on his
seven kopekas per day, which in St. Peters
burg Is barely sufficient to provide him with
black bread to sustain life.
The sympathyone prisoner displays for an
other is something wonderful, an instance OF
which | will relate. We had among our
number a peasapt named Popoff. He was
rather n superior member OF his class, who
had suffered arrest for striving TO elevate his
neighbors TO his level Long years of suffer
ing had broken his health, and the black
bread purchased with his misera BILE allowance
no longer sufficed TO sustain life The rest of
the party, seeing the needs OF the man, gen
erously contributed from their own small
store of money the sum Of five roubles and
sixty kopekss, which they placed in the
starosta's hands for the purchase of more
nourishing food. A little was spent for ex-
trss each day, and the sum, though small,
lasted considerable time.
Each political prisoner Of the company had
his own sad story 20 relate of how he became
a victim OF the abuses practiced throughout
the empire. IL would require too much
space 70 commit to print the tales of the nu.
merous indignities to which really innocent
men and women were subjected. One thing
which surprised me very much was the knowl
edge that so few of the number belonged &c
