CHOLERA IN PENNSYLVANIA.

Swickley, Penn: We had an epidemic

bottles of it in one week and have since
sold nearly gross. THIS Remedy did the
work and was big advertisement for me.
Several persons who had been troubled

If you can invent little something that
many people want you can be rich. The
rubber pencil tip is said to have brought
its inventor 100000. The pssteboard
trays for shipping eggs have earned the in
ventor a fortune. A common needle
threader brings an income of $10,0 a
year to its inventor, while the "return bali"

the man who struck the notion.

Some of the Paris candidates for seats In
the French parliament adopted peculiar
electioneering methods to win over the
vscillating voters. One, for instance, ad-
dressed crowd of people as they Aoated
down the Seine on a steamboat at his ex-
pense. Perhaps the most curious episode
of the canvass In Paris was trick played
by printer on an illiterste candidate
named Robinet. This aspiring politician
resolved to inform the public of his merits
by parading the streets as sandwich
man" bearing elaborate placards setting
forth his virtues. AS u. Robinet could
neither read nor write, the printer to whom
he gave the order for the placsrds substi-
tuted for the intended lsudstory circular
a statement containing much scurrilous
language and several insults to well known
electors. The result was that the unlucky
candidate, proudly parading in all limo
eence of the offensive notices On his back
aud breast, was stoned by the populace
and narrowly escaped lynching.

EVER THE SANIB.

We noticed the other day the benevo-
lence of widows, as shown In the fact that
they are often found bravely concealing
their undying love and imperishable grief
for the "late lamented" and sacrificing
themselves to the good of the human race
by marrying again, or even again and again.
This benevolence appears to be q trait of
whose husbands have gone to grass. 1t is
not surprising that this is SO, for hue-
band lost by divorce or desertion is usually
as much lost as if he were in the cold, cold
ground, and tho benevolence of widow
nature can shine as brightly in one case as
in another. 1t is shining with especial
brightness In the case of the grass widows
who are 30 numerous nowadays in
South Dskots, on account of the ease
with which divorces can be pro-
cured there. 1t is related that q
number of grass widows, who have had
their expenses paid to the land of promise
by friends who expected to be rewarded
with their hands and hearts have broken
their engagements after the granting of
the decree and married other fellows.
Eligible candidates for wifehood are rather
scarce in South Dakota and the adjoining
regions, and consequently farmers and
others, some of them we'll supplied with
this worlds goods, who have grown tired
of tending their focks and harvests in
bachelor loneliness, make practice of
haunting the divorce courts, and endeav-
oring to win any comely woman who may
happen to strike their fancy, and who is
in fair way to freedom from matrimonial
bonds. In this way several devoted swains
in the East have been disappointed and
homes in the West made happy.
This performance doesn't furnish any
argument against the benevolence of wild
owe, as some might hastily suppose. The
| disappointed ones will find it a little hard
to see the benevolence in the arrangement,
but the accepted ones can see it plainly
| enough. And those who are left needn'i
mourn long. If they will take look
around they will soon be able to see
that the same all-embracing benevolence
that led to their sorrow is waiting to con-
sole them.

The South was as solid as usual at the
last election, and 1t is what the boys call
"solid" in the committees that have Just
been announced by Speaker Crisp. The

rank all the rest in power and dignity
were held by Northern democrats-ths
ways and means by Springer of Illinois,
the appropriations by Holman of Indiana.
Now the Illinois man gives place to Pro-
fesaor Wilson of West Virginia, and the
Indiana man to Mr.. Ssyers of Texas. Out
of about fifty chairmsnships, big and little,
gentlemen from the former slave holding
states get thirty. Out of about score of
big and specially coveted chairmanships
they get fifteen. They also furnish chair
men to six of the eight committees on ex-
penditures In the executive departments.
This Is indeed like old times, and 1t de-
serves attention even at the rick of being
charged with reviving ssme dissgreeable
memories. What has happened was pre-
dicted two weeks sgo by one Of Springer's
friends, who said: "It is we'll known that
Springer and Holman are the only two
prominent Northern men who have held
important chairmanships. 1t is now in
tended to take away from the North even
these two chairmsnships and give them to
the South. This will give the South all of
the choice chsirmanships. Aside from
that, it will establish the principle that the
South has now seen fit to assert its author
ity and assume control of the House when
a Democratic victory has been secured. D"
