 For five years past Ihave been tortured with a blood and skin disease known in medical par lance as ssHarpes" It manifested itself in bright red, swollen patches under the skin. The fiery burning sensation was intolerable. My face was disfgured. my hands, arms, feet and body felt as if they had been poisoned. Proximity to my kitchen stove and all exercise aggravated the malady. It was a relief to thrust my feet out Of bed in the coldest nights lost flesh for lack of necessary sleep and flesh. Physicians who treat ed me gave me only temporary relief. used the Cuticura remedies, Ayers and Hoods Sarsa- par1llas and other blood purifiers, none of which hit my case. was discouraged and not inclined to try anything more. For two years have been importuned to try Sawyer's Dandelion Con- pound, but declined. had no faith that any thing or anybody could cure me, but finally I yielded to entreaties and began to use the medi- cine. To my great joy. before had used the first bottle, was encouraged. The red blotches gradually disappeared, the burning sensation ceased, my appetite returned, and my complex ion improved. have taken three bottles Of the Compound and call myself well have used nothing besides to secure this result. com mend the Compound to all persons who need such remedy. You may use my testimony to inspire confidence in those who doubt the eff cacy of Sawyers Dandelion Compound.

THE English and French governments have recently raised the ranks of their representatives at our national capitol to that of full-fledged ambassadors of highest rank. Therefore a similar ele- vation will be given to our representatives at the European capitols. Other nations will follow suit no doubt. The United States has got along very well in the old way, knowing that the world appreciates it's position among nations, or indifferent as to whether they did or not. It needs no symbols, uniforms, or titles to back the assertion that we are a Nation.

When he arrived at the depot he found no sleeping-car at tached to the train. He demanded his money back. He was refused at the ticket-office. After his arrival in Han- over he wrote for his sleeping-car fare to the central office, and received it back with deduction of cents. In addition he had to pay one cent postage. He sued for these cents, and received judgment for their recovery. Let justice be done though the heavens fall.
