The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1891-05-29
Read This, Ye Sceptics!

GEO. w. BoULTER, of Belfast, Me-,
for three years member of the city
government, and also member of Thos.
III. Marshall Post, No. AZ, G. A. R., is
well and favorably known as thor
oughly reliable man. He says under
date of March "a, 1S90:-
For some years have been afflicted
with Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Muscular
Rheumatism and Lameness across KID
neys. Added to all this, was, for two
years, daily attacked with a
deathly sickness at pit of stOm-
ach, followed by copious flow of water
from my mouth; then l would vomit,
which would relieve me for the time, only
to be repeated the next day. commenced
taking DANA'S SARSAPARILLA, and
before had taken one bottle the deathly
sickness departed; and for over four
months have not had the slightest symp-
tom of return. MY STOMACH FEELS AS
WELL AS EVER IN MY LIFE. MY BILIOUS
NESS is ALL GONE, and my bowels are regu-
lar. My DYSPEPSIA IS A THING OF THE
PAST, AND CAN EAT ANY KIND OF FOOD
AND DIGEST IT.
My wife has also taken DANA'S SAR-
SAPARILLA for Biliousness and Neural
gia, and has been helped by it more than
by any other medicine she ever took. l
consider it aconderJui remedy"

LOVES EQUATION.

Scant beauty hers whose beauties tongue can
name,
And cold his love whose lips can word its
flame
Sweetheart, thy charms shall never measured
be,
Save by that love to which they temper me;
And all the passion reigning o'er my heart
know but as thy beautys counterpart.
-Dufiield Osborne in Harper's Bazaar.

Tue Rev Hugh o. Pcntecost. who
was turned out Of su Eastern church
three or four years AGO because Of his So
~cialistic ideas, aud who has since been
preaching anarchistic doctrines in New
York, proclaimed his creed last Sunday.
lie said Il believe there is no God. l
believe there is 90 supreme person who is
in raTsOnaT TdTlI0n to human BC1HFr7
hearing aud answering prayer. | believe
there are no devils, no demons, no angels,
no conscious personal existence after
death, no such places or conditions as
heaven or hell, and hat the Bible, like
all other books, is a purely human pro
ductjou. | believe the church is an en-
tirely imaginary institution. I believe
there Is no state. The state, like God
aud the church, is a wholly imaginary
thing. The Salt Lake Herald thinks
that Mr.. Peutecost will progress only a
little further whoa he will not believe IN
soap. but will believe in dynamite.

a young man went iodine AZ the house
of n friend Now, this young man does
not profess to be n skilled anatomist, and
says the only way he can tell whether
there are bones in his shad is by getting
them into his mouth. And so when the
fish came he plunged it into his mouth,
without regard TO its bony structure.
And when a bone revealed its presence
in his mouth he took it out
Now, he likes shad very much, and he
had set his heart on having n second
piece. But be wasn't asked 10 have any.
After dinner was over his hostess came

\ French geologist has made a careful
calculation Of the amount Of solid mat
ter yearly carried of into the ocean by
the action Of the rivers Of the world and
other causes. He estimates that the re
duction Of the average height Of the sur
face Of the solid land is O.OO6 inches each
year. Making allowance for the CORE
spending rise in the bed Of the ocean, and
taking no account Of the occurrence Of
volcanic and other exceptional phenome-
na-the general tendency Of which il to
hasten the process Of disintegration-the
period at which the solid land will have
ceased 10 exist and the surface of the
earth will be covered with water has
been estimated. As, however, that
period is 1000, OJ9 years di tant, the pre-.
diction need cause no immediate dis.

Just where to draw the line IN the
matter of Relating taxes, said a city
councilman in a conversation yesterday,
lis pretty difficult to determine. The
town is full Of infant Industries Every
one Of them is howling for protection
They point out how they are OF public
benefit, how the people might not be able
TO exist without them and how IN reality
these investments rave been made in a
spirit Of the purest philanthropy and have
never returned a dollar. Here's the
Cheyenne Street Car company. the Chey-
enne Investment company, the carnage
company, the opera house company and
the Lord only knows how many others,
all public bsneiactors, all clamOriug To 90
untaxei, and # their claims are allowed
where 10 the deuce the councilman used
a somewhat stronger term are We gong
TO raise the money To support the city
government When you add TO this the
hist OF property exempt from taxation I'M
der the law, such as property owned BY
secret and benevolent societies and hat
held by church organizations as an in
vestment, it is quite apparent that the
plain, everyday householder aud business
mar must come IN for the brunt Of il.
What are we going to do about it2 ISM
it better that all these enterprises should
bear a fair proportion Of the taxation ike
the property Of the poor and uniufueutial
people2 If necessary shouldn't even some.
Of this valuable unrmproved real estate.
which is held so high when anybody wants
to buy it, be taxed for At least half of
its actual value so that improved property
should not be too heavily weighted
down."
1t was only natural to expect that
Mayor Bresnsheu would act precisely as
he did last night. 10 his Judgment the
opera house rebate should not be allowed,
and he doesn't stand on any ceremony
about saying that be will sign no papers
granting the rebate unless compelled un-
der the law to do 80. The mayor back
bone mag yet prove a valuable factor in
the city administration aud be the means
of bringing about a more equal distribu-
tion OF municipal taxation.

There are many positions that a deaf
mute can fill as well as a man in posses
sion Of all Of his faculties, but patroliug
a beat as a policeman Is about the least
likely occupation in which a deaf and
dumb m4n-nEnI De expected. Cleve-
land. o., however, has, or had not long
ago, a deaf. and dumb policeman, who
has walked a beat for years and never
given occasion for complaint. 1t is said
he lost the power Of hearing and speech
by a stroke of paralysis, but recovered
his health without regaiuing all his fac
ulties He was on the force at the time
and begged TO be retained,
The authorities were 10th to discharge
him, 20 gave him a trial. He proved As
efficient rs the others, and so held his
position. He wore Il badge, Deaf and
Dumb Policeman" but answered in
writing any questions that were asked
him as i~ntelligeutly rs any one. As he
cannot hear a sound, he is obliged to be
more than usually watchful; his eyes are
always on the move, and he sees every.
thing that occurs in his vicinity Inter
