A Valuable Gift.

Probably no physician of our day has
gained such a reputation for curing
cases of lingering or long standing dis
eases through treatment by mail as the
great specialist in nervous and chronic
diseases, DR.. Greene, of "a Temple
Place, Boston, Mass, discoverer of the
well-known remedy, DR.. Greene's Ner.
vura. He uses in his practice only
harmless vegetable remedies, and he
has given special attention to treatme nj
OF patients at distance through letter
correspondence. Consultation in this
manner or personally, is entirely free
of charge. Any sufferer from what
ever kind of disease has the privilege
of writing to him description of his
or her case, and he will return a care
fully.conside answer fully explain
ing your disease and giving you a per-
feet understanding of all its symptoms,
free Of charge. His success is some
thing wonderful in re storing the sick %
health, and his practice is without doubt
the largest in this country. Send for
his symptom blank and write him, suf-
ferer, for his advice in your case. This
will cost you nothing, and may lead to
your cure.

Roofing a Mountain Cut.

A letter from Los Angeles, Cal, says
that unique piece of engineering is
being completed on the Santa Fe line,
through the Cajon pass, that will take
rank with the famous Tehachapi loop
on the Southern Pacific. 1t amounts
in effect to roofing over The mountain.
Much trouble was experienced last
winter on account of the landslides in
this pass, which kept the line block
AIDED most of the time, and to obviate
this difficulty this work was designed.
1t consists of series of terraces, four
in number, rising up from the track
where the cut is deepest, eXcavated so
as to break the force of the water COM
ing down the slope, and carrying it off
la'erally by series of wooden conduits
and surface drains. These terraces
range from 300 to 500 feet in length
measuring in the aggregate / 1900 feet,
aud are all rooted over. An army OF
men and teams have been at work for
some months.

condition, a depraved will supplies al
most the only motive for return TO
slavery. The man who has abstained
for month has no physical necessity to
drink again.
We are now referring to those who
have been habitual drinkers. There is
class of periodical drinkers-men who,
after weeks or months of total absti.
hence, rush into wild debauch. These
are generally deemed more hopeless
subjects than the daily consumers o.
drains. Yet the Kelley method is said
to cure them, also. How does it do it2
First, its subjects must generally be
men who want to have the habit broken
Otherwise, they would not go to Dwigh
and march in procession-no exceptions
being allowed-four times day. The
right disposition is not wanting. Next,
the remedies are such as to produce a
bodily condition where the accustomed
stimulants become repulsive. The BIZ

limate), in very small doses, a powerful
stimulant and Alternative. Its successful
employment by DR.. Kelley seems to
render possible what has always APP
peared monstrous story by Thomas
Hope, author of Anastasius." He
tells of seeing man at Constantinople
who had been great opium-eater. He
had substituted for this corrosive sub
Innate, of which he ate twelve grains
day. AS one-twelfth of a grain is
strong dose of the sublimate, Hope's
man ought to have died with his first
chew. On the contrary, he is repre-
sented as fat and healthy. The Cali
fornia medical periodicals reported, a
few years ago, the case of an inebriate
who, in a semi-delrious state after
protracted spree, swallowed sixty grains
of strychnine. Instead of killing him,
as a single grain would have worked
with an ordinary man, it only "setted
his nerves." Strychnine and alcohol
have long been reckoned as counter
acting agencies, and DR.. Kelley may
have found The bicbloride of gold
to possess great anti-alcohoic virtue.
Thirdly, the DOCTORS secret remedy, to
be taken internally, is probably either
ipecac or tarar-emetic. Both these
have been used with success in creating
disgust in the drunkard for his favor

other with them. Small doses of ipe-

vomiting, are the physicians chief re-
course in checking the impending revel
Of the periodical drinker. The nausea
and vomiting so often witnessed in the
streets of Dwight are doubtless coca
stoned by the employment of these
remedies. DR.. Kelley may have made
improvements in the preparation and
administration of well-known drugs, but
we doubt if he has hit upon anything
absolutely new. BY going to Dwight,
the inebiiate submits himself TO vio-
lent break in his formt habits; his en-
tire system, so to speak, is - shaken up"
and he is surrounded by influences cal
cuated to awaken his pride AMI rouse
to action his better nature. Could the
same amount of resolution and the
same stern regimen be exerted at home
a journey to Illinois might be avoided;
but such combination of helps as DR..
Kelley offers is not easily attainable.

How others View 1t.

The following paragraphs are from
the Memphis Scimitar, paper that
has strongly supported Mr.. Cleve'
land, but cites the situation as it is :
"The election of Mills would have
been accepted by the people as a dec
laration by the Democratic party in
favor of free trade, and, followed by
the nomination of Cleveland, would
have insured defeat.
"Mr. Cleveland's chances, it must
be admitted, have not been advanced
by the nomination of Crisp. The
opposition to him will now take a
more open and vigorous turn, and it
is not impossible that, after all, a
Western man may be chosen"
A Republican view from the
Louisville Commercial:
1.-THE election of Crisp means the
definite retirement Of Mr.. Cleveland
from the Presidential race. The
Democrats must either take Hill or a
Western man.
"All the elements which favor
Cleveland were supporting Mills,
and all who are cold or hostile to-
wards HIM were urging Crisp's elec-
ton. MIR. Mills himself gave every
sign ola desire to identify himself
with Mr.. Clevelands's cause, while
Mr.. Crisp did not indicate any incli.
