TEN years is pretty good slice out f
a mans life to give up to even SO good
cause as serving his countrymen in
the capacity of a congressman. Yet the
average member does not begin to spend
as much as decade in the national
legislature. OF the men who began in
the forty-eighth congress and have
served since then continuously, thus
rounding out ten years at the expiration
of the present congress, only thirty-six
now answer to the roll-call, and, Curl
ously enough, the number of democrats
just doubles the republicans-twenty-
four to twelve.

Talking of patent mediclne-you
know the old prejudice. And the
doctors-some OF them are between you
and us: They would like you to think
that what's cured thousands won't cure
you. You'd believe in patent medicines
II they didn't profess to cure everything
and 80, between the experiments Of
doctors, and the experiments of patent
medicines that are sold because there's
money in the ''stuff," you lose faith in
everything.
And, you can't always tell the pre-
scription that cures by what you read
in the papers. So, perhaps, there's no
better way to sell remedy, than to tell
the truth about it, and take the risk of
its doing just what il processes to do.
Thats what the Worlds Dispensarv
Medical Association, of Buffalo. N. ".
does with DR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and DR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription.

say they'll do-you get your raossev

THE enormous stock of tin plate i'm
ported just before the higher duty was
imposed is almost exhausted, and with
it the additional quantity that has been
imported under the new duty. We
now begin to hear of very large ship
ments of tin plate from Wales. Some
days ago a consignment of 1,349, sos
pounds was received at Chicago. On
the 25th ult, the Portland, Me, Argus
reported the payment of $25, 54S. 70 in
duties 'by Phelps, Dodge & Co, of st
Louis, on their consignment of tin
(plate) brought by the Circassian," and
remarked that this was "believed to be
the largest sum ever paid for one con-
signment at this port" The sum paid
in duties indicates that the quantity
was 1,161,O7s pounds. At the same
time it is reported in the high tariff
journals that in this country the wages
of the men who make such thin sheets
of steel or iron as are used in the manu-
facture Of tin plate are soon to be re-
duced.

~ Russian journal reports an interest
ing case of philanthropic physician.
Visiting the patients of his districts the
doctor found that in many instances
their sickness was caused by hunger.
To the most needy he prescribed six
pounds of pure rye flour in doses of two
pounds day." He ordered his patient
to get the medicine at the drug store of
the nearest village, where it would be
issued free of charge every day. The
good doctor made arrangements with
the druggist to supply the flour at his
expense. In this way his patients will

President Harrison Who Was Expected
Was Unable to Attend.
PHILADELPHIA, March 18.-The ami
versary of the death of St. Patrick was
fittingly celebrated all of yesterday by
the Hibernian Society for the Relief of
Immigrants, eliminating in a magnif-
cent banquet last evening, at which
General Wanamnker, Con-
gresham w. G. P. Breckenridge and
other noted persons responded eloquently
to toasts.
1t was a notable assembly. President
Harrison, who had been urged to attend
the banquet and whose presence was ex-
pected almost up to the last minute, was
unable to come, and sent the following
letter to Congressman McAleer:
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
Wednesday, March IL.
To the Hon. WILLIAM MCALEER,
House of Representatives:
MY DEAR SIR have your letter OF
the 18th, in which you refer to the invi-
tatioD which has been extended to me to
attend the annual dinner of the Hiber
Man Society tomorrow evening. l do
not know even yet whether it will he
possible for me to leave. 1t may happen
that my presence in Washington to NOR
row, or tomorrow night, may be essen
tial for reasons which 1 need not now
explain, but which you will probably
understand. 1 shall be sorry if 1 am
compelled to disappoint the members of
the Hibernian Society who have been SO
kind to renew this invitation more than
once. Very truly yours,

COMMISSIONER RAUM's own admissions
in the pension office Investigations
should be sufficient to cause his re-
moval, and would be with the right
sort of president. He admitted without
a blush that he allowed politics to in
fuence him in conducting the business
of the pension Office, and that favors
were habitually extended to republican
candidates for congress that were
denied to democratic candidates; that he
had borrowed money from attorneys
practising before his Office, or what
amounts to the same thing, on notes
endorsed by them; and he then refused
to answer questions relating to the
shady business transactions he has been
charged with.

THE cry for better country roads con-
tinues urgent and is growing in volume.
In the March Forum Colonel A. A.
Pope gives some suggestions that
promise good results wherever adopted.
He proposes among other things a
bureau of roads IN each state, whose
business it should be to ascertain and
supply to communities requiring it the
facts relating to the expense, mechani-
cal construction, care, durability, use
and extent of the different kinds of
roads. In connection with this bureau
he would have some kind of state super
vision or advisory assistance by compe-
tent engineers in road and bridge build
ing. There is little doubt but that such
a state bureau if properly managed
would be- of vast assistance in the
economical and efficient expenditure of
money in country road building.

THE pope is 80 years old. He wears
spectacles only when reading. He could
see better at seventy than he could at
twenty, for when young he was very
near sighted. His health is excellent,
and it is kept so by his very simple mode
of life. He is in bed usually for eight
hours, from 10 to 6. His meals are all
of a frugal character, his breakfast at
times consisting solely of glass of
milk. For dinner, which is served at 8,
he takes soup, two courses of meat with
vegetables and desert of fruit, with
one glass of wine. Every day after
dinner he goes out for drive or a walk
in the gardens of the vatican.

Addie Phillips Wants to Marry Her Girl
Friend.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March 1s.-An other
case of infatuation similar to that of
Alice Mitchell for Freda Ward has been
discovered in this city. Addie Phillips
and Minnie Hubbard are each II years
old.
Last Sunday the two girls disappeared
and were not found for three days, and
Miss Phillips on her return home, said
that she and Minnie had been together.
She told her mother that she loved
Minnie, and would rather be dead than
separated from her.
She further stated that she cared
nothing for the society of men, and Min
ME was the only person she could marry.
This she intended to do as soon as she
secured some money.
Miss Phillips is fine looking girl, and
has been carefully educated.
1t was agreed between the parents of
the two girls to separate them. When
Miss Phillips heard of this counsel she
became violent, bursting into paroxism

Words to the Deaf.

An old lady who has lost nearly all
sense of hearing, and was also blind,
once said to me: 81 wish you would
write and tell people how to talk to the
deaf, for can always hear you." 1t is
easy enough to speak slowly, articulate
distinctly, and in line with the defec-
tive ear, but not too near it. 1t seems
to be general idea, but it is mistaken
one, that the louder the voice the more
easily it is to be heard by the deaf.
Slow, distinct articulation is of far more
importance. If these simple, natural
facts were more generally borne in mind,
it would do much to alleviate the trials
of the deaf.-The Chautauquan

We call it Alabastine, as it is lnanufac-
tured from alabaster rock.
The people use it because it is durable and
beautiful.
The sanitarians endorse it because 1t is of
a sanitary nature, and contains no poison
GUS material.
We advertise it as we want all to have an
opportunity to be benefited by its adyan-
tages-
Wall paper firms fight it, as it displaces
their poisonous products.
Some dealers talk against it. as they can
buy cheap kalsomines, and where the people
are not posted, sell at Alabastine prices,
thus making more profit.
Kalsomines must go, as they are only
temporary and spoil the walls.
Alabastine has come to stay, as it posses
ses merit, and has the unqualified endorse
ment Of those who have used 1t for years.
Alabastine has stood the test Of time, and
now stands higher in public favor than ever
before.
Prot. Kedzie, the eminent sanitarian Of
Michigan, says: "Have carefully tested for
arsenic or copper; none could be found.
Find no traces Of poisonous or injurious ma
serial."
DR.. DeWolfe, the health officer of Chicago,
says: 1.-The perfect wall for domestic habita-
tion is the material which resists decomposi.
tion in every form. It scenes to me that
Alabastine is admirably adapted to the pur'
pose"
The Good Health Publishing Co :, OF BATTLE

RECORD OF A NOBLE LIFE.

Mrs. DR.. Mary II. Wilhite, of West
ern Indiana, recently deceased, leaves
the record of a noble life. As young
girl she obtained means to get an educa-
tion by sewing. In 1854 she began the
study of medicine, at time when such
a course was rewarded by ridicule and
persecution. She practiced her profes-
sion with great success, and gave freely
to the poor and afflicted of her time and
skill. Her married life was happy, and
seven children found her wise and de-
voted mother. Few women of sixty
years leave such blessed memory as
this to the world.-Brooklyn Citizen.

The sofa bean plant has no special

many other good feeding crops. It is a
native of India, where it is called

States, but it is no better than the COW

ELECTRIC BANG CuRLER.

A surgical instrument of recent 'nven'
toni wire loop, which is heated red
hot by electricity and used for cutting
off tonsils and like excisions. This has
suggested an instrument for curling
bangs which will do away with the ne.
cessity for gas jets and alcohol lamps:
The electrical apparatus will be attached
in similar manner to the curling tongs.
The hair can be wound round the tongs
while they are yet cold, and the connec-
ton then established, which will heat
the iron to the requisite degree as regis
tered by the electrometer. The supe-
riority Of this method over the old is
apparent. There will be absolutely no
danger of burning the hair, the forehead
or the fingers, and the curling will be
much more speedily accomplished.
These daily practical uses of electricity
have given an impetus to the subjec in
the schools. A requisite to degree
will yet be: Every girl her own elec.

axiom to the japanese, as it must be to
an art-loving people, and hence screen
decorations has been an art to which the
greatest psinters-Korin, Tanyu and
Hokusai-did not hesitate to devote
their talents, and screen decoration Is
still the subject to which the highest
efforts of the art embroiderers are
directed.-New York Recorder.
