vorite Prescription is the remedy.
1t builds up and invigorates tho

proper functions, and restores health
and strength. It's Legitimate
medicine, not a beverage purely
vegetable, perfectly harmless, and
made especially for woman's needs.
In the cure of all "female COM
plants" it's guaranteed to give sat-
isfaction, or the money is refunded.
No other medicine for women is
sold 10. Think of that, when the
dealer says something else which

"Times have changed" So have
methods. The modern improves

stead Of fighting with her. Sick

costiveness, and all arrangements
of the liver, stomach and bowels
are prevented, relieved, and cured.

THE LICENSE REFUSED.
The Negroes of Water Street
Don't Want Barrooms.

Water street runs right through the
negro colony in Salem, and on it arc all
the stores and churches of the colored
people of Salem.
Ever since the victory of the "wets"
in Salem some of the leading colored
SWEETS" of the town have been attempt
ing TO obtain license TO open barrooms
on Water street.
Yesterday q colored firm, Blackwell
81 Morton, applied for license before
Judge Griffin, of the county court.
They were represented by Col. r. II.
Logan, but such cloud of dusky wit
nesses appeared before tho court to
show cause why the barrooms should
not be allowed on Wafer street that
Judge Griffin refused the license. Ono
argument brought up against granting
the licence was the vicinity Of the pro-
posed barroom to the Colorcd Baptist
Church, that edifice being only couple
of hundred yards distant.
The colored preacher of that demo-
mination preached rousing sermon
against the establishment of tho saloon
the night before, which undoubtedly
had much to do with working up SEN
timent against it.

EXCESSIVELY CHRISTENED.

How Young Lady Came to he yerz
NumerousIy Designated.
There is young girl who has recent
~ entered into society here who, if she
should write her name out in full
would write it something like this:
anna Lucy Cecilia Lillian Virginia
Katherine Helen Jones'"
Not that this young girls parents had
fancy for piling the names up for their
only daughter in this way; not that she
had so many distinguished ancestors to
be pcrpetuatcd did it happen that she
was chrstened to death in this way The
story is one that is not common one
and she tcllsit herself in something this
way:
Mamma is a very high church wom-
an and was anxious that the christening
ceremony should be performed very
shortly after my birth. A list of names
was written out and handed her to in
dictate her prcfercncc from. She placed
4 mark over against the name Cecilia,
which was the one she wished to have
inc bear. Now, the rector of the church
was young man, not used 10 all the
offices of his profession, and he was nat
urally somewhat abashcd of having an
infant placed in his arms for the ccrc-
mony AT the same time slip of pa
per was handed him with the name
which ] was to bear marked, but in
some way he misunderstood the dircc-
tions and Jealous of doing his entire
duty, he began at the head of the list
and solcmnly piled every name on the
paper on top of my bald head
MY father tried very hard, he says,
to shut him off, but without any sue
cess; therefore it remains to this day
that my baptismal name is Anna Lucy
Cecilia Lillian Virginia katherine
Helen. IN. Y. Sun.

HOW LONG TO SLEEP.
Some Instances OF Persons Almost I'm.

Some Instances Of Persons Almost I'm.
tireiy Dispensing with Sleep.
How much sleep is necessary to re.
new the exhausted energies of the brain
and lit ii perfectly for work must be
determined by individual experience;
but as to children, it is safe to say they
ought to be INDUCED to the extent OF
their inclinations. They require more
sleep than adults; and old people, If
their slum bcrs are sound, incline to
sleep at shorter intervals than persons
in the prime of life. The difference in
individuals in this respect is very great.
DR.. Gooch mentions man who sleeps
only fifteen minutes day, and yet en-.
joys perfect health. Blaine. in his
''Medical Logic, speaks of some mission.
aries in China who reduced their sleep to
minimum that they might pursue
their labors with the least possible in
terruption.
When forced to rest they threw them
selves on IL couch. with brass ball in
hand over brass basin. The moment
they lost consciousness, the ball drop
ped from the fingers and. ringing on
their basin. woke them: and this sleep
they found was all nature required.
Seneca declares that Macenus passed
three years without sleeping a single
hour; and Boerhaavc says that he has
passed six weeks at one time without
sleep.
Blaine was informed by General
Pichcgru that during his active cam
paign in Holland he never for II single
year slept more than one hour in TWEEN
ty-four: and the same is related of
Charles MI. of Sweden, during his
wonderful career. Jeremy Taylor, dur
ing part of his life, slept only three or
four in the twcnty-four; and Napoleon
slept only four or five hours in the
twenty-four during his military career;
but he was able to fall asleep at any
time in the midst of his work when he
felt drowsy.
John Hunter, the great surgeon, slept
four hours at night and one after din
Ecr. Sir John Sinclair gives the history
OF man, who had reached the adj
vanccd age of nincty-onc. and all his
life had slept but four hours in twenty
four.

THE SOLDIERS IDEAL,
Lessons in Devotion and Daring From
the Army.

the Army.
In the arms, with its vague and few
and distant rewards, there NAV be and
there are rivalrics in devotion and dar-
ing, but there is no competition for
place and money as there is in civil life,
and yet the soldiers ideal being duty,
the performance OF duty seems sufficient.
1t is Il state of things which can suggest
much to those who arc fond of battling
the hope of better things in us with tho
assertion that it is contrary to human
nature to act from any but Interested
and selfish motives. Human nature is
great mystery, and we have not yet
begun to solve it; but it appears that @
number of men drawn at random from
society and trained to belief in duty
as the chief good, will keep on not only
living it but dying 1t. We civilians tnllx
much, we almost talk solely Of our
rights. but in the army it seems that
men talk chiefly of their duties, when
they talk at all, and never of their
rights. These things are true of all
ranks; the ideal is the same from the
private to the general, and it seems to-
correct all the mistaken tendencies of
the time before they became soldiers.
If, as RuslSin has fancied, the army
should ever serve us as the norm of the
civil state, and we should come to have
soldiers of the plowshare as well as
soldiers of the sword" it might not be
long before we should be told that it
was against human nature to act sell
fishly, and that to be rccreant to the
general welfare in any aim or decd was
to be guilty of conduct unbecoming II
citizen and gentleman. However this
may he, it is certain and it is significant
that those who have attempted to dream
out future brighter than this present
have always had something like mill
tary organization in their eyes; but
these Missionaries have somehow behold
little of the gaicty and enjoyment which
are quite rs compatible with the per-
formance of duties as with the assertion
of rights.-W. ID. uowclls, in llarpcrs

HIS TERRIBLE " DUKE"
Julian Il. Brandon Has a Rumpus
on a Horse. Car.

Julian r. Brandon is now said to be the
heavyweight fistic champion of the Olym-
pic Club. Besides having scored an easy
victory in a street-car fight he wants big
damages for the pain and humiliation" he
suffered during the brawl That is why he
recently instituted a suit in the Superior
Court to recover balm in the shape OF S12,-
600 in gold coin of the realm from the
Omnibus Cable Company for an election
from one of defendants cars and subse-
quent arrest.
This is the story told by the plaintiff in
complaint filed Saturday. A few days ago
Brandon took a transfer from the foot OF
Post street to the Montgomery-street horse
car line. After the Car passed Suffer street
he went to the rear platform and rendered
the conductor his transfer. The conduc-
tor lpJudiclously refused to accept the
transfer ON the ground that the passenger
had not boarded the car at the specified
protested that he mad and his assertion was
backed up by half a dozen passengers.
When the conductor demanded nickel
and upon being refused, threatened to
thrown Brandon off, the fun began.
A night handler from the indignant plain
TIL sent the conductor sprawling headIong
IN an undignifed heap. The driver re-
fused to interfere and other passengers
wisely did The same. At Bush street
newly appointed policeman was hailed;
lie seized Brandon by the coat collar and
measured his length in the mud. Finally
Brandon walked TO the City Prison and ex-
plalned the affair to Captain Douglass, who
ordered his release from custody and repri-
manded the arreSting officer.
