Country Papers Read all Over.

The country editor has this advantage over
a city paper, that while his publication cannot
in the nature OF the case secure so Wide Gil
culation, every copy that is distributed has a
closer and more attentive reading. Thousands
OF copies OF the city papers bought by hasty
readers who glance hastily over the headlines,
select for reading few of the most important
items of news and then are through with them.
But the country weekly stays in the home at
least until the next week s issue dispaces it.,
and is read and re-read, fir ON the bit of verse
that leads the misc ellany TO the last crumbs
OF local news. What We may call the all
roundness of the country press is one of its
most striking features. The editor knows his
const lency as well as the city editor knows
his, and ministers to it with quite as much iE-
teliigelce and with fully SIS keen scent for
whatever viii prove acceptable. He is more
master OF his craft than the city editor, for,
in many instances, if he IS not actually editor,
printer reporter and business m inager all in
one, he is capable of fill ng all these positions
IN an emergency. Furthermore, with scarce
y an exception, he nay be counted on to
make sturdy defence Of principle, and to
stand resolutely for VIII ateyer makes for order,
good government and moral as well as tie
material welfare of the community .-Et

In your Washington letter of the 10Th inst.
in speak, ng of the probable candidates for
Congress in the Fifth Maryland district, it is
said: sE Governor Bowie is anxious to have

This is entirely incorrect. Neither or nv
son desires his candidacy. Neither he or !
wish his nomination. He is in no sense
candidate, nor would he accept if nominated.
In this come. ton you will kindly allow
me to avail of the opportunity to say, my own
ma ne having been suggested in some of the
newspapers of the district, and by many par
tial friends for the nomination, that | could
n, accept it if rendered.

Miss Jones, aged 20, has lost 25 pounds, cheeks
have the g hectic flush: coughs and raises ali
the time; has just returned from the South,
where she spent the winter. Did not improve.
She takes drops of DR.. Fenner's Golden Re-
lief on small lump of sugar, once in 2hours.
Improvement begins at once. In weeks she
has gained 10 pounds. In weeks she weighs
100 and is CURED. The remedy is a SPECIFIC
in INFLAMMATION. No Inflammation, no sore
ness, no consumption. Thus it cures long list
of ailments from u common sore throat, to q
grave bronchitis, asthma and consumption,
from toothache to q grave neuralgia, from
headache to q grave rheumatism anda from
summer complaint TO grave dysentcry, chol-
era or fiux. This wide range of application has
sometimes unjustly caused it to be dubbed
cure all" But it isn't. Ii cures one disease
and that is inflammation Inflammation cannot
exist in its presence-and that - sOtces The prob
tem." One tablespoonful dose cures La Grippe.
1t never disappoints. Contains no opiates, mar
cotics mineral poisons. Perfectly safe.
