In the Nick of Time.

The nick Of time to stop the course Of
bladder and kidney complaints Is when
the organs concerned exhibit a tendency
10 grow inactive, The heallhful impulse
toward activity that they receive from
Hosteiter's Stomach BitteIs rescues them
from impending danger, and averts such
dangerous maladies as Bright's disease
and diabetes. Sluggishness of the kid
neys increases a liability to chronic rheu-
matism, govt and dropsy, and since the
blood is filtered by these organs in its
passage through them, the operation of
the Bitters serves a doubly happy pur-
pose. The medicine acts without excit-
ing, like the fiery stimulents of COM
merce. Malarial, dyspeptic, constipated
and nervous invalids are thoroughly re-
lieved by 1t. Since the advent of that
shocking malady, la grippe, it has been
widely demonstrating its usefulness as a
curative and preventive of it.

air, and making himself strangely con-

This was Uncle Zachary's son. He
sprang with a hurrah from the wagon,
and fell in a maudlin heap on the
ground. His voice was thick; he could
neither talk straight nor walk straight.
There was NO installing his condition.
He was drunk.
1t was a heart rendering sight, and
the picnic party was awed into silence
and sorrow. What of the father and
motherp Their shame, their grief, their
fearsl who can depict themY This was
not hearsay, or SANDER. With their
own eyes they saw that their son had
progressed in the drinking habit until
1t had controlled him. They knew he
had begun with but a glass Of cider.
Why he had not drunk with modera-
tionp Why had he been SO weak as to
be overcome? His heart broken parents
did not ask these questions. They only
saw that he had not drunk with mod
Grafton, that he had been overcome.
l will tell you how itall ended. Uncle
Zachary did not sleep that night until
every drop of cider on his premises was
mixed with strong vinegar, and his
wife did not sleep till she had poured
into her son 8 ears her contrition and
her agony, and pleaded with him with
all a mothers earnestness and affection
to give her a promise that he would
never touch intoxicating liquors again.
Long she wrestled with him. 1t was
like pleading for his life. Nothing
would satisfy her but total abstinence.
He hesitated, but he loved his mother,
and he was also bitterly ashamed of
his ~disgraceful conduct. For hours she
begged his promise, using all argu-
ments, all persuasions in her power.
She would not let him go without his
pledge. He promised at last, and was
saved. / have reason to believe he
never drank a drop of cider or any in
%toxicating liquor again, and therefore
he became a steady and respected citi-
zen. This is true, not imaginary. Do
you wonder now that Uncle Zachary
will not deal in cider or keep it on his
premises2 There is not now a stronger
total abstinence man in all New Eng
land than he nor a more grateful mother
than his wife.

The Worlds Desire.

LONDON, April 3O.-The Bow Street
Police Court was filled with artists to-
day, when the Ease of E. j. Cox against
Rudolph Blind, the well known painter,
was called. The subject of the Ease
was Mr.. Blinds last picture, 1.-THE
Worlds Desire" which was seen and
complained of by Mr.. Cox as indecent.
Mr.. Blind says that the picture is his
masterpiece, the result of his life's
study, and an artistic work of the first
merit. AT the opening of the trial the
picture was brought in and placed
where MI. Vaughn, the magistrate, and
the witnesses could see. 1t represents
a beautiful young woman standing I'M
draped, while she attracts to her wor-
ship the poet, the warrior, who is yield
ing his sword, and the octogenarian.
In the foreground a dark robed monk
seeks to restrain with uplifted crucifix
the unstable youth who would rush
forward toward the nude divinity.
Magistrate Vaughn said that the pic
ture undoubtedly belonged to a high
order of art and dismissed the COM
plant.

the dignity OF his position will permit,
that he is not candidate for the Presi-

he will not consent to the use of his name

nominated that he will not run. If he
