The laws of health are taught in our
schools; but not in way to be of much prac-
tical benefit and are never illustrated by liv-
ing examples, which in many cases could
easily be done. If some scholar, who had
contracted a cold was brought before the
school, SO that all could hear the dry loud
cough, and know its significance; see the thin
white coating on the tongue and later, as the
cold developes, see the profuse watery ex-
pectoration and thin watery discharge from
the nose, not one of them would ever forget
what the first symptoms of cold were. The
scholar should be given Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy freely, that all might see that
even severe cold could be cured in one or
two days, or at least greatly mitigated, when
properly treated as soon as the first symptoms
appear. For sale by G.. NJ. Chenery.

An honest Swede tells his story in plain but
unmistakable language for the benefit of the
public. One of my children took severe
cold and got the Group. l gave her tea
spoonful of Chamberlains Cough Remedy,
and in five minutes later gave her one more.
By this time she had to cough up the gather
ing in her throat. Then she went to sleep
and slept good for fifteen minutes. Then she
got up and vomitted; then she went back to
bed and slept good for the remainder of the
night. She got the Group the second night
and gave the same remedy with the same
good results. write this because thought
there might be some one in the same need
and not know the true merits of this wonder

A good picture Of the state of affairs
.eprobated by tho recent Indian coun
elf is seen in the case of the Onondaga
tribe. This tribe owns d reservation
Of 5000 acres on tho site of the old
council fires Of the Six Nations These
5000 acres are uniformly of the
choicest farming lands, and include
s55csso quarries Of the finest gray lime
stone. But tho Indians neither farni
their lands nor work their quarries
There arc twenty-six chiefs for 200
members Of this tribe. Tho old Indian
language is still in common use. The
state of morals is Absolutely indescrib-
able in decent English. The tenure Of
land is tribal. The remuneration Of
Christianity is q requisite to election

Is professed by about half the tribe.
The Feast of tho White Dog is cello
brated with indecent ceremonies. Tho
question Of what to do with the In

on reservations and feed them.--Globo

Endenemdent voters.

We are told that more Independent
voters are needed to purify politics,
and it is doubtless true. The demand
Of party is to close the eyes, drown
conscience, and swallow what
ever seems expedient to advance party
interests. We are told that theparty
that adopts Sunday School methods is
sure to be defeated. This, too, is
doubtless true, because Of the scarcity
of independent voters. If every hon.
est Christian gentleman would system
atically and quietly refuse to vote for
the unfit candidate, the candidate who
is known to be u political tricks,
ter, Il bribe-taker or a bribe-giver,
which would include all who buy and
sell votes and political influence, the

HARRISON AND REID.


This is the banner under which
we've enlisted.
Our candidates have stood the
storms of many political battles and
have come out of them triumphant
and unscathed, and one. time political
foes are uniting with their friends and
rallying around their standard.
"The Shibboleth of Tariff Reform"
as Cleveland is designated by some OF
his admirers, cannot turn the tide OF
overwhelming defeat into whose mad
rushing waters the Democratic hosts
are even now plunging.
Their attempts to carry the new
States Of the Northwest with money
subscribed by pronounced Free
Traders in the East, will bear nc
fruit. The mighty West, this even
Jugs star of empire, has spoken in the
past, and will roll up such Il majority
of States for the Republican ticket as
will open the eyes of the East.

Delaware is to have the "hat iron"
This is a piece of good news. The
joint commission of the States of Penn
sylvania and Delaware have decided
the boundary question which has been
at issue for many years and given to
the Diamond State the little tongue
of land containing 700 acres, running
down from Pennsylvania between
Delaware and Maryland. ghis is SEN
sible. Pennsylvania can afford to be
generous to her little neighbor mas
much as the strip was of little account
to her, lying as it does outside of its
symmetri cal lines and seeming to be
almost the "little end of nothing whit
tied to a point" 1t is well also for
the occupants of it, who will now
know in which State they live, and
the tax collector will be able to get a
little tax out of tho fellows down
there who have heretofore been able
to escape him by lodging from one
State to another when he was after
them. That commission deserves tho
unanimous thanks of three States il
having settled this question withou
involving three commonwealth
cluding Maryland-in bloody inter
State war.--Oxford Press.
