Castoria is truly the marvellous
thing for children. Doctors prescribe
it, medical journals recommend it and
more than million mothers are using
1t in place of Paregoric, Bateman' s
Drops, so-called soothing syrups and
other narcotic and Supplying rem
edies. Castoria is the quickest thing
to regulate the stomach and bowels
and to give healthy sleep, the world
has ever seen. 1t is pleasant to the
taste and absolutely harmless. 1t re-
lieves constipation, quiets pain, cures
diarrhGa and wind collie, allays fever
ishness, destroys worms, and prevents
commissions soothes the child and
gives it refreshing sleep. Castoria is
the children's panacca-the mothers
friend.
Castoria is put up in one size bottles
only. 1t is not sold in bulk. Don't
allow any one to sell you anything
else on a plea or promise that it is
"just as good" and will answer ervey
purpose.

Mrs. John Muldoon, who died here
on the 18th, was born in Donegal, Ire

to Thos. Glass in that country, who
died there leaving her with two chill

respected by all who knew her. She
was very charitable and always had a

were in want. She donated to the ST.
Philips Catholic church $500 for the

very strict member of the Catholic
faith. Her remains were taken on the

good of her soul. The funeral was
very large which was followed by
many relatives and friends which goes

spected, as influential as if he had tried to
keep pace with the vulgar display OF
money-bag congressman and politicians.
There is the same cry about the small
salaries paid our foreign ministers, cry
that was not heard in former days. when the
only titles to recommend any man TO rep
resent our republic at foreign court were
capacity, culture, simple courtesy and
heightened character. The United States
was once represented at st. Petersburg BY
John Quincy Adams. gentleman who,
measured at any mental or moral angle.
was the peer of any of our latter day
foreign ministers. for he was what few OF
our foreign ministers lately h ave been, .
profound scholar and accomplished man
OF letters, as we'll as . diplomat
list. Mr.. Adams, when asked by the
emperor Of Russia if he was gong out Of
town answered he was not, because he
could not afford it. Mr.. Adams thought
1t no discredit for the representative of .
democracy to live on his salary and did
not deem that "a foreign ministers place
was in society,"" as one Of hin successors,
Minister Stoughton. once phrased it.
Fran kiln. Morris, Dallas. Jefferson, Van
Buren,. Monroe, Everett. Irving, Buchanan,
Motley and Charles Francis Adams never
felt any loss of dignity because they made
their salary as foreign ministers pay
their official expenses Of living. None
of them asked for moro pay or resigned
because they could not get it or suffered
any loss of public influence abroad because
of their economy. Indeed, the highest
class of Englishmen and Frenchmen. who
steer their states in their courses, are not
ashamed to practice economy. as Disraeli
did. and do not deride it in others. It is
no more necessary that q foreign minister
should be . millionaire than it il that Q
cabinet officer or congressman should be.
Moderate official pay has been wise policy
under our republican system. Social dis
play follows in the train of sending mere
moneybass to congress.
If We will send men rather than mere
moneybags we shall have less social dis
play in official circles, and that would be .
good thing for the nation, where the pres
ent drift is in the direction of extrava-
gance. II il said that one rich United
States senator spends more than his salary
Of one year on single entertainment.
His example is pernicious in public life,
and his folly is no argument why We
should give cabinet officers $4,000 year
to enable them to initiate his evil example

TAXATION OF MUNICIPAL BONDS.

There Is bill before the Massachusetts,
legislature To exempt municipal bonds
from taxation. The law limits the amount
city may borrow to pa per cent. of its
valuation and the amount that town
may borrow 10 per cent. of its valuation.
The valuation for the purpose of ascer-
tanning the amount of debt that may
legally be incurred is computed by taking
the average valuation for three preceding
years. These municipal bonds are a
favorite form of investment. with trustees,
guardians. executors, administrators and
savings banks. The average taxation in
Massachusetts, is 4 per cent. and just so
long as the law requires assessors to levy
upon the municipal securities. that rate

The New York Times states that the
principal difficulty which Mr.. Cleveland
encountered in getting together such .
cabinet rs he wished was the reluctance Of
many of the party leaders of large
capacity to take Office because Of the small
salaries attached or their own small
means. This for a long time caused Mr..
Carlisle To hesitate before accepting the
secretaryship Of the treasury. and ii is
said TO he the reason why Mr.. Bayard has
been reluctant, as reported. TO take his old
post of secretary of state. which is said to
have been rendered him. The Times
thinks the situation calls for an increase
of the salaries of the cabinet TO at least
double what they are now. or, better still,
to SIS. coo
On the other hand. the New York World
declares that il is time to return to earlier
and simpler standards Of public life at the
capital and live within these small salaries
rather thaa lit the salaries To aecommo-
date the extravsgant standards now pre-
vailing. The Worlds view, 1t seems to Us,
