of La Grippe:
Office Brinley, Wiles & Hardy Co.,
Louisville, Jan. 30, '03.
Gents-While attending the Memphis
fair some months ago, l was attacked
with severe pains in my arms and legs,
the effects of grippe Of last winter.
met your agent there, Mr.. Harbett, Who
is an old friend, and he insisted that |
use the Electropoise athis Office, which
did with wonderful results. In a short
time the pains left me, and concluded
to rent 'Poise. When my rental time
had expired bought it, and would not
part with 1T for any consideration. 1t
is certainly a wonderful instrument,
and it is more wonderful as to how il
does its work, yet it does.
| think it is the duty of every man to
make known to the afflicted ANYTHING
that will be of any benefit TO them, and
the Electropoise certainly will.
Respectfully, 7. E. G. BRlNLEY.
Mr.. Brinley Is one of the oldest and
best known plow manufacturers in the
country.
The diseases cured by the Electropoise
are not confined to any particular kind
of ailments. By its use oxygen is alb
sorbed through the pores and men,
branes, adds strength and vigor to the
entire system, and will cure any disease
where there is vitality to build on and
a cure is possible. We einvite all to call
or write and get full particulars. Fifty

The Reformers at Work.

The fingers of the Reform party
must have itched for chance at Tariff
tinkering. Within three weeks of the
date of the inauguration of the Demo-
cratic President, they are out with
printed draft of a new tariff bill.
That is right. The people declared by
their votes in November that they de-
sired change, so the sooner they have
1t the better. The more draft Tariff re-
form bills there are and the greater the
discussion, the sooner the people will
become enlightened. 1t may be lit
tie hard on business men and producers,
because no change can be effected in
the tariff for another year, while all
the proposals made and ideas suggested
Will only have a tendency to unsettle
our entire system of commerce. Far.
mers will be little afraid what crops
TO grow, manufacturers will fight shy
OF overproduction. The demand for
raw material will be reduced To mini
mum and prices are likely to recede.
But as we are to have Tariff Reform
let us have as many drafts of new bills
as possible. One set of Solomons has
been heard from, but there are more in
the country and they should not be
overwhelmed with modesty. The
Economist shows at length elsewhere
the prospect for farmers who grow
wheat and potatoes, 1t is proposed to
reform these crops, and producers
should be pleased with the outlook.
The Populist and Democratic farmers
desired change. Let them study
where the change is likely to lead
them.
There is talk of abrogating the re-
ciprocity treaties with South American
countries. Quite so. England sadly
needs more South American trade, her
share of Brazil's imports having fallen
from II to go per cent, while that of
the United States increased from 81 to
l4i per cent. since we reciprocated
with Brazil.
With breadstuffs free, farmers
would soon be likelv to get less than
one barrel of salt for bushel of wheat,
as in 1850, instead Of getting two bar
rels Of salt, as they could last year un-

nations and otherwise, until a good Ii.
brary was secured. Also suitable
chemical, philosophical and astrono.
mical apparatus were obtained, to
meet the demands of the advancing
age Several attempts were made to
secure an endowment for the college
from the State and private sources,
out none were successful prior to 1860.
DIR. Doak and his noble successors
and their respective corps of teachers
labored on, sacrificing their lives for
the cause of religion and education.
for they depended alone upon tuition,
and rates were very low. All of the
Presidents of Washington College were
Presbyterian ministers, and they sup
plemented the small amount received
by pastorate with Salem church, and
thus were enabled to support and edu.
cate their families. These grand men
left the impress of their noble lives
and characters upon their students,
and they still live enshrined in the
hearts of their descendants. AS public
benefactors, they left the world with
out having amassed its gold; but etern.
lty will unfold the rich jewels they
gathered, and the diamonds they bur-
nished, fitting them for the Master s
building. Blessed indeed are they
who sacrifice their lives to elevate
their race.
Among the first one hundred gradu-
ates notice 40 ministers of the Gospel.
and nearly every one Presbyterian; 90
in the legal profession, and among
them several judges of legal eminence;
there were 20 in the medical profession,
and ten in the number were Presidents
OF the colleges, but one half of these
were among the ministers first named.
IL was said by student of Washing
ton College, who was in the U. s. Sen.
ate, that prior to the Civil War, at one
time in Congress and Senate there
were " members who had been stu.
dents at Washington College. This
shows the extent of her work in the
South and West in the first half of this
century. Many who did not complete
the regular college course became dis.
tinguished in the professions and all
branches of business.
Among the alumni | might mention
few who were distinguished in the
Presbyterian Church: James Wither-
spoon, John w. Doak, James Gallaher.
John Rankin. David Nelson, Alexan-
der McEwen, Robert A Dayis, John
". Cunningham, Froncis A. McCorkle,
Samuel Lowry, john G. Palmer, VIM.
NJ. Cunningham, James A. Lyon, ST.
las Furnster, A. A. Doak, James ID.
Tadlock and Samuel Hodge. In the
legal profession l might mention
Judge james Trimble, Robert Severe,
John Blair, Samuel Logan, Chrs. Nc
Allister, Landon C. Haynes, N. G.
Taylor, o. P. Temple, Zeb. Vance and
many Others of eminence. The medi.
cal profession was adorned with such
men as Alex. NJ. Nelson, VIM. P. Ches-
ter, VIM. Ii. Deaderick, Samuel B.
Cunningham, Robert A. Preston,
Arch. Blackburn and host of others.
Most of them were not only eminent
in their respective professions, but
were leaders in the PRESBYTERIAN
Church, and earnest laborers for the
Master and their race.
Or the changes made by the late
Civil War, will write again.

PHYSICALLY CONSIDERED 1T is
WONDERFUL CREATION.

From the Popular Science Monthly.
In the human body there are about
263 bones. The muscles are about
500 in number. The length of the
aln,entary canal is about 81 feet.
The amount of blood in an adult
averages 80 pounds, or fully one fifth
Of the entire weight. The heart is 6
inches in length and 4 inches in
diamter, and beats 10 times pei
minute, 4,aoo times per hour, $500
times per day, 36,7os,ooo times per
year, 2,so5,44o,ooo in three score
and ten, and at each beat At ounces
of blood are thrown out of it, IT'S
ounces per minute, $50 pounds per
hour, 7 and three fourth tones per
day. All the blood in the body
passes through the heart in three
minutes.
This little organ, by its ceaseless
industry, pumps each day what is
equal to lifting I77 tones one foot
high, or one ton I7z feet high.
The lungs will contain about gallon of
air at ther usual degree of initiation.
We breath on an average I,2oo times
per hour, lnhale 600 gallons of air, or
$4,000 per day. The aggregate sur
face Of the air cells of the lungs ex-
ceeds 20, 900 square inches. an area

marrow. These nerves, together
with their branches and minute
ramiications, probably exceed 10000
900 IN numb.r, forming "body
guard outnumbering by far the
greatest army ever marshaled.
The skin is composed Of three
layers and varies from one fourth to
one eight of an inch in thickness.
The atmospheric pressure being about
fourteen pounds to the square inch, a
person of medium size is subjected to
a pressure of 10000 pounds. Each
square inch of skin contains $500

each OF which may tie likened to a
little drain pipe one fourth of an inch

Forty years ago Oberlin admitted
Antoinette Brown and Lettice Smith to

1t has been stated that not an intide
book is published in the Welsh lan
guage. One thing is certain, the Bible
is read and preached and loved there
and while in five counties in the Nortl
of Ireland it has required twelve police
men to every 10000 people, mainly t.
keep order among those who do no
read the Bible, and in the South o
Ireland, where the Bible has not beer
so much read, it has required forty si
policemen to every 10000 people t.
keep them in order; at the same time
has been stated that in one county il
Wales no policeman was required.-N

Locusts.

Locusts are offered for sale in the
markets of Arabia, Syria and Egypt.
The African bushmen cook them by
making great fires. The locusts fly
into the flame, their wings are burned,
they fall and are roasted; then the
bushman draws them forth, eats, and
is happy. Some Europeans do not
fancy their nutlike flavor, especially at
first, while others find them quite
palatable.
Lady Anne Blunt tells of riding
through part of Northern Arabia
where q swarm of locusts had lately
passed. leaving their dead and strag-
glers behind them. The camels ate
these as relishing morsel with their
provender, and her greyhounds picked
them up all day, eating great many
Of them. She says they were regularly
used in camp as q part Of the day 3
ration. and thought very fair substi-
tute for vegetables, their flavor being
somewhat like that of wheat still in
the milk.
After trying the many different
modes of cooking, all the Europeans
agreed that they preferred them simply
boiled. When cooked, they took the
creatures daintily by the wings, pulled
off their long legs, dipped them in salt
and late them with much relish. Lady
Anne, when she first tested them
thought them fairly good" but soor
came to consider them 50 most excel
lent article of diet" During her visi
to Arabia many of the tribes wer'
wholly dependent upon locusts ant
,amel's milk for their food.

The morning hours were merry,
The genial noon Is calm,
The fragrance of the wild rose
Is like healing balm;
The birds within the woodland
Carol happy song,
But in my heart abideth still
A sorrow deep and strong
My poor lost Lowell
The glittering streamlet murmurs
Over its pebbly bed;
The fcecy cloud is sailing
So lightly overhead;
The southern breeze is playing
Among the hazel boughs;
But. ah remembrance dies not
OF fhopeful, happy VOWS
My poor lost Lowell
The calm. lone hills ascending
Toward the clear. blue sky.
O'erlook the smiling valley
Where here at rest l lie
Those lone hills are the emblem
Of that far, silent land,
Where she love Is resting.
One of countless band
My poor lost lovel
A vision of yew tree
A narrow, turf-clad grave
The winter OF country
Where winds tempestuous rave;
A little torrent falling,
With moaning. mournful sound.
Fills my imagination
Far more than all around
My poor lost love-
All ! gentle. joyous Nature.
Thy wearled. mourning child
Delights in thy rejoicing,
But may not be beguiled
From thinking of that dear one.
With dull heart. aching sore:
My own. my vanished loved one,
My souls light evermore-
