Our Intense Civilization.

Were it not that your self imposed
burdens were all taken upon your
hands, and your mind, and your heart,
not for your own comfort and gratifi-
cation, but for the angelic joy you have
in ministering to others, | would talk
to you like a Dutch uncle" writes
Robert j. Burdette in one of his mint,
able articles in the November Ladies'
Home Journal. If | were your colonel
| would tie you up by the thumbs; then
when you were cut down, you would
rest for three or four hours anyhow,
while you fondled your thumbs with
your tenderest caresses. But | am not
colonel. Like many another monster l
am only lieutenant colonel. Live more
easily; want less for the rest of the
household. You say: 1.-The barn is a
nice, plain, bare, unadorned place,
with plenty Of hay and corn if we are
going to live like the cattle let us move
down there" Now what's the matter
with the house? 1t is a good enough
place: the nan finds it a delightful,
beautiful, heavenly place to live in.
1t doesn't make him any work. You
do make it a Paradise for him. Now
just make it an easier place for your
self. Our intense civilization is max
ing the home, for the mistress of it, a
place from which once a year, at last,
she gladly runs away. Small wonder
if she should run away and never come
back again. You have made a home
for the monster, such a lair as Titania
might envy, a grotto wherein fairies
might love to dance, the sweetest, dear
est spot on the map of The world. Now
make it a resting place for yourself,
and "us men" will look at you and say:
well, if she had been in Eden there
would have been no snake" rs not
the life more than meat, and the body
than raiment?"

Catarrh, Not Local, But Constitutional.

DR.. Dio Lewis, the eminent Boston
physician, in a magazine article says:
"A radical error underlies nearly all
medical treatment of catarrh. IL is not
a disease OF the man s nose: 1T is a dis
ease of the man, showing itself in the
nose-a local exhibition of a constitu.
tional trouble" Therefore he argues,
the use of snuff and other local appli-
cations is wrong, and while they seem
to give temporary relief, they really do
more harm than good. Other leading
authorities agree with DR.. Lewis.
Hence the only proper method of cure
for catarrh is by taking a constitutional
remedy like Hoods Sarsaparilla, which
reaching every part of the body through
the blood, does eliminate all impurities
and makes the whole man healthier.
Ii removes the cause of the trouble and
restores the diseased membrane to
proper condition. That this is the prac-
teal result is proven by thousands of
people who have been cured of catarrh
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla.

Far and Wide.

Not on this broad continent alone,
but in malarial breeding tropical re
gions, in Guatemala, Mexico, South
America, the Isthmus of Panama, and
elsewhere, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
affords to inhabitants and soiourners
protection against malaria. The min.
or, the freshly arrived immigrant, the
tiller OF the virgin soil newly robbed OF
its forests by the axe of the pioneer, find
in the superb antifebrile specific a
preserver against the poisonous miasma
which in vast districts rich in natural
resources, is yet fertile in disease. 1t
annihilates disorders of the stomach,
liver and bowels, fortiies those who
use it against rheumatic ailments bred
and fostered by outdoor EXPOSURE; in,

ed by a rigorous temperature, aid robs
OF their power to harm morning and
evening mists and vapors laden with
hurtfulness; strengthens the weak and

Unclaimed Prize Money.

Three hundred thousand dollarsi in I'M
disputed prize money still remains in
the treasury awaiting claims by sailors
to whom it belongs. Uncle sam merely
holds this sum as the left over balance
of a trust fund. %Unhappily those to
whom it is owing are mostly dead and
will never ask for their shares.
Their bones have been scattered by
shipwrecks all over the world, though
the names of all of them are written in
the Governments book, with the
amount in dollars and cents due to
each. tits only occasionally nowadays
that applications are made for awards
of cash from this deposit of treasure.
Eventually nearly all of it will be
turned over by Congress to some other
purpose for lack of claimants.
This money represents a part of the
great sum derived from the sale of
captured vessels during the rebellion.
Nearly all of these craft were blockade
runners, and of the latter nine tenths
were owned in Great Britain. Some of
the finest steamships ever built were
used by Englishmen for running the
Union blockade during the war. Brit
ish naval officers got leaves of absence,
during which they commanded block
ade runners Blockade running is a
very peculiar business. There is no
penalty for it under international law
except the confiscation of the ship and
her cargo. The people on board of her
are treated in all other respects as if
they were t%ransacting a legitimate
mercantile business. At the earliest
opportunity they are let go in peace

CEDAR HILL.

The people of this community are
getting along nicely sowing wheat and
gathering corn, but are not pleased
with the talk Of removing the Alfred
Postofice. 1t is understood that Hen
ry Clark has been appointed to succeed
l.. 9. CARRIER, our present postmaster.
This is contrary to the whistles of the
people not because they have any thing
against Mr.. Clark, but it is on account
of the incon yenience it will be to the
patrons of the office to move it to his
house. The people of this community
are kind and generous, firm in their
political views, believing that the party
in power should have control of the
Offices. Both Democrats and Republi-
cans object to moving this office. The
present location is the best in the COM
munity. School is in session about six
months in the year and most all of the
families are represented in school and
it isn't any trouble to get the mail
every mail day. The school is getting
along nicely at Cedar Hill under the
control of Mr.. Depew. The inhabi-
lance of Shake Rag met last Sunday
and organized a Sunday School. 1t is
the earnest desire of all good people
that they may be crowned with success.
For more than a quarter of a century
the Democratic party have held conven-
tions and nominated a National tick
ct on a platform which they claimed
contained their views and principles
concerning legislation. The people
last November cast their votes for the
ticket nominated by the Chicago Con-
vention, placing the party in power
which has been crushed or kept down
for more than a quarter of q century.
They have declared themselves in ia
vor of the masses against the classes,
and the firsttime they have had the op-
portunity to show their colors or adopt
their principles (if they have any they
have failed to do 80. l don't claim
that the Democrat party is responsible
for the present financial panic. They
promised to reduce the tariff, they have
failed to do it. They promised to re-
peal the purchasing clause of the Sher-
man law /; they have also failed to do
that. l think when Mckinley is inaug-
urated in 1896 and Mr.. Phelim is APP
pointed Secretary of State. and your
writer Postmaster General, things will
will be in a better condition than they
are at present. School is getting along
nicely at New Victory under the con-
troll Of Miss Ida Middleton. Mr.. Sailor

MORNING STAR.

Farmers are rapidly getting their
wheat into the ground, and the general

Single and Married.

A native of Ireland landing at
Greenock wanted to take the train to
Glasgow. Never having been in a
railway station before, he did not know
how to get his ticket. Seeing a lady,
however, going in, Pat thought he
would follow her, and he would soon
know how to get aboard. The lady,
going to the ticket box and putting
down her money, said, "Malyhill,
SINGLE" Her ticket was duly handed
to her, and she walked off. Pat,think
ing it all right, planked down his
money and shouted, Patrick Murphy,
