In Torment.

Surely If there are unhappy suffer-
ers on earth upon whom the angels
look down in pity ii is people aganlz-
ed with rheumatism. They are in
torment the year round with little or
no respite. Now, there is no evidence
to which publicity has been given
in behalf Of Hostetter's Stomach
bitters more concurrent and convinc-
ing than that in behalf of its efficacy
in incipient rheumatism. And since
rheumatism and rheumatic and sim
pie gout are among the most obstinate
complaints TO which this admirble
remedy ia adapted, and since they all
have fatal tendency to attack the
vital organs, the advisability of an
early use of the Bitters, when they
manifest themselves, must be apparent.
EfIlcacious, and most signally so, are
the Bitters, too, in malarial diseases,
kidney and bladder inactivity, consti-
patton, dyspepsia, liver complaint and
nervous ailments.

The Lyceum, "Little Trixie. {"

Such is the title Of q musical come
dy presented at the theatre last even
ing. II is replete with fun and frolic
and answers well as a vehicle for the
antics and specialties of some very
clever people. First among the per-
formers is Miss May Robbins, who
with unquestionable versatility sue
ceeds In the presentation of several
characters, all of which arc Favored
with sparkle and humor that is in
teresting. She is well endowed with
ability as character impersonator
and is more than ordinary as vocal
ist. The favor with which both play,
soubrette and company were received
last night should stand as sure slgn
that the Lyceum will do the biggest
week of the season thus far.--Grand

CREMATION VS. PUTREFAoTIoN

AS a cure for the superstitions that
are rife in the world German scien-
tist suggests that cremation Of the
body be resorted to in place Of burial.
He claims that all the superstitions of
skeleton ghosts wandering around
grave yards in tattered shrouds and
the toothless grimace would vanish
from the memory ofghost story tellers
and children, and weak minded per-
sons would no longer have a real sub
ject upon which to excite their imagi-
nation and fear.
That suggestion is good one and
would do some good, but very few are
injured mentally by the belief in
ghosts caused by the realities of the
grave yard compared to the thous-
ands who are subject to the poison of
disease by the miasmatic efiluvia that
rise through the ground after perco-
lating through underground channels
until they riso to the surface and scat
ter poison all over the land, breathed
into the lungs by the healthy and max
ing epldemics common to all localities.
This is the most awful effect of bury
ing thousands of bodies in one spot,
and that spot generally in the imme-
diate neighborhood Of populous COM
munities.
Three hundred years after plague
had decimated certain locality in It,
ally, through the cemetery in which
the bodies of the victims were buried,
a railroad dug tunnel, when the
plague broke out again in all its yiru-
lence, and the railroad company, after
losing by death number of work
men, was compelled to abandon the
route. Other just as strong evidences
there are Of the fact that graveyards
poison not only the ground upon
which they are located but for hum
dreds of yards around them, some
times the germ Of the disease appear
ing in spring miles away. During
the late war, company Of soldiers
were eDcamped in beautiful grove
half a mile from n cemetery. Diar-
rhGa appeared among them and 1t be-
came so fatal that a removal of the
camping grounds was made, and then
no more cases appeared. The custom
Of burial has become 80 fatal to the
living that the most intelligent Of the
population near cemeteries are pro-
testing against their extension and II
they had the temerity would advocate
crematories 80 that by incineration
tho evils attending decomposed bod
les would be obviated. There is al
ways prejudice against any new cus-
tom and especially when 1t touches
the sacredness Of our dead. This IL
all foolish prejudice and even in Q
sentimental way cremation would be
preferable. Certainly the contempla
tion of the decomposed condition o.
our friends would shock US more thar
to know they were not food fol
worms but that they had been guard
ed against this by being reduced tC
ashes and Inferred in chambers dedi
Gated to our household gods. How
much more beautiful and delightful
il would be to change our cemeteries
into parks, and If thought best en-
bellish these parks with monument
to our loved ones? Where their sac
red ashes might be entombod ant
where we might roam at pleasure
recurring to lost associations, and no
be subjected to miasmatic erhalation
dangerous to our health aud life.--
