Say many poor men and women, who
seem overworked, or are debilitated by
change of season, climate or like. If
you could read the hundreds of letters
praising Hoods Sarsaparilla which
come from people whom it has restored
to health, yeu would be convinced of its
merits. AS this is impossible, why not

A Good Suggestion.

From The Dubuque, I0e0a, Teleqraph.
The adjournlng of the Impeachment
court last Saturday, on account of Gen.
Weaver's belly-ache. cost the people of
this commonwealth nearly $500. One
dose of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhea Remedy would have saw
ed this expense. And we suggest, as
matter of economy and humanity, that
the state provide against future conhn-
gencies of this nature, by furnishing
each senator with bottle of that valua-
bic remedy. % and 80 cent bottles for

PAT AND THE "PRIzzIDINT."

The colonel tried 10 describe Mr. Lin

Sure III present arms fast enough if

that assurance the colonel had 10 leave
him. Looking from the window a few
minutes later he saw the president pass
Patrick, who took no notice Of him
whatever; nor did Mr. Lincoln show
that he noticed the sentry. After he
had gone in, Woodward went down TO
the Irishman. and said: why, Pat
rick, you forgot after all to present
arms to the president.
'',The prizzidint, is ito" exclaimed the
sentry, was he passing me?"

ly when Mr.. Lincoln left the war de-
partment the colonel followed him and
gave Patrick the signal for which he
had been religiously on the watch, and

tiously that Mr.. Lincoln nearly ran into
him, and then with his usual good ma
ture stopped to speak with him. asked
about his home in "Injeanny." his wife
and the gossoons and slipped a re-
membrancer into his hand as he walked
on.
Patrick was found paralyzed. 'He

his sudden elevation in his own estima-

him raving, and they had to put ball

a stern course of discipline TO his former
good character, when at suggestion
from Mr.. Lincoln they let up on him,

WORKING TOGETHER.
Sensible Little Sermon for Farmers and
Their Families.

A Sensible Little Sermon for Farmers and
Their Families.
1t is the object of labor which gives
it its highest dignity and it's constant
reward. The carpenter who plies his
saw and his plane; the stone-cutter who
hews the foundation stones, and the
mason who builds upon them; the
blacksmith who shapes the heated iron;
the weaver who paes the loom and the
shuttle; the farmer, the gardener, nay
the common laborer-each one of these
who pursues his task with the feeling:
81 am discharging my duty by earning
a support for myself and providing for
the present wants and future mainten-
ance of those who are dear to me;
am creating something that will add to
the welfare, the comfort, the happi-
ness of others, and am serving the in
terests of the human race"-he, what
ever his employment or station, who
has this object, holds, in truth, posi-
ton more dignifed, more honorable,
than the advocate who is pleading,
with whatever eloquence and ingenuity,
yet in disregard to essential Justice;
than the political leader, applauded,
successful, to whom politics is simply a
matter of gain and of place; than the
great financicr and speculator whose
wealth is to him simply the means of its
own multiplication. Only that labor is
divine which has divineuess in its object
and in its spirit. -Philadelphia National
