Frequent onslaughts

On the delicate membrane of the bowels
and stomach with drastic purgatives
must have their natural consequence
to weaken and disable both organs. Ma
ture exacts severe penalties for in
Engagements of her laws. and there is
no more glazing one than that which
consists in frequent and unnecessary
dosing with violent cathartics. This is,
however the course pursued by many
unwise people who seem to think that
the bowels, unless constantly relaxed,
are not in a healthy state. When a
laxative is really needed, Hostetter' S
Stomach Bitters is the safest and most
thorough. 1t neither gripes nor ope-
rates violently or excessively. 1t in
vigorates the intestines and stomach,
and arouses the liver Regularity and
vigor are guaranteed by its use Sleep
promoted, appetite restored, are among
its benign effects. A tendency to rheu-
matism and kidney trouble is nullified
by it, and it completely eradicates ma
larial complaints.

NOW Lay NE DOWN TO SLEEP.

The fire upon the hearth is low,
And there is stiffness everywhere;
Like troubled spirits here and there
The, freight shadows luttering go.
And as the shadows round me creep,
A childish treble breaks the gloom,
And softly from a farther room
Comes: Now lay me down to sleep.
And. somehow, with that little prayer
And that sweet treble in my ears,
My thoughts go back to distant years
And fingers with a dear one there;
And, as l hear the child's amen,
My mothers faith comes back to me,
Crouched at her side seem to be,
And mother holds my hands again.
OH for an hour in that dear placei
Oh: for the peace of that dear timei
Oh for that childish trust sublime!
Oh, for a glimpse of mothers face!
Yet, as the shadows round me creep,
| do not seem to be alone
Sweet magic Of that treble tone
And now l lay me down to Sleep

OF course it would be a good thing if
the European powers would join the
United States in an international agree
ment on the financial question. But in
view Of the troubles caused by delay
and the advantage taken by England
as the great creditor, it looks as though
a mighty movement should be indie
pendently made by the United States
TO rehabilitate silver. and place it side
by side with gold as the money of this
country, as it was before 1873. The
feeling is rapidly growing that silver
must be restored and that America is
big enough and rich enough to stand
pat and alone on the silver question.

OFFENSIVE PARTIsANsHIP.


| Republican contemporary, which
is continually making blunders
through its offensive partisanship, .
is in a terrible state of mind over the
appointment of certain gentlemen to
positions of responsibility in Utah. II
takes the ground that they have been
selected because they are Democrats.
The question of fitness seems to fade
entirely. in view of the awful charge
that they are not Republicans.
Its present great trouble is the choice
of Professor Paul as President of the
Agricultural college, in preference to
Professor Kingsbury. and the selection
of DR.. Talmage as President of the
University, all because the gentlemen
selected are Democrats. That, ac-
cording to our disgruntled contem-
porary is the sole reason for the choice
of both those distinguished educators.
Let US see: Our extensively partisan
critic does not know what it is kick
ing about. If it will inquire, the ap-
palling discovery will be made that
Professor Kingsbury. proficient
scholar. one of the foremost educators
lof the west, who would have proved a
capable head of the Agricultural Col
lege, if the choice had fallen upon him,
is also a Democrat. Therefore a SINH
lar objection would have applied in his
case as soon as our neighbor had found
out the fact.
AS to Dr.. Talmage: He has never
been a partisan, offensive" or defen-
sive. He has never declared his poll
tical affiliations, more than to say his
leanings We're toward Republicanism.
But our neighbor can see no cause for
his selection beyond it's own assump-
ton that he is a, Democrat. His
recognized abilities, his profound learn
ing, his diligent research, his long ex-
perience as a preceptor, his eminent
success. all count for nothing in view
of tine baseless suspicion that he too is
Ia Democrat.
1T is not long since the same unsafe
and unstable authority, rode rough shod
into the watermaster's debartment,
making utterly false charges of favor
itism and tumbling into the same error
as to the politics of the watermaster,
whom it declared also to be a Demo-
crat making Democratic appointments.
That officer cared nothing about any
of the untruthful charges of our con-
temporary except its statement that
he was Democrat. That nearly broke
his heart. He still lives, however, and
expects to vote the Republican ticket
at the next election and probably will,
unless he should be reclaimed and
turned from the error of his ways
political. His water ways are not to
be sneezed at.
Our contemporary need weep no
longer under the delusion that 'the
two great educational institutions of
the territory are put under Democratic
management" 1t is not true. 1t would
be too much to expect a recantation of
the deceptive stuff it has foisted upon
the public to create dissatisfaction. But
its whole TRADE is built on false and
unwarnanted assumptions. and SO comes
down at the first touch, with "a dull
and sickening thud.''

The rare instance of the coming of
age of whole trio of triplets was cele-
brated recently at Whitenast, near
bennington, England. Generally, in
case of triplets, the children die soon
after birth, but occasionally they sur

on record of quadruplets, all of whom
were reared.

THE HAUNTED SWING.
A New Illusion by Which a Room,
Seems to Be in Motion.

A New Illusion by Which a Room
Seems to Be in Motion.
/ Spiritualists of the old world are very
much agitated over a humbug that has
recently been produced by an ingeni-
Gus Yankee in London. The alleged
phenomenon is known as the haunted
swing" 1t consists Of a swing that
does not swing. 1t is built like
parlor containing all the furnishments
that would be found in a nicely ap-
pointed drawing room. There are mir
rors and pictures on the walls, finely
upholstered furniture, bric-a-brac and
all of the little fancy knicknacks that
go to make up a beautiful room. The
floor is entirely stationary, being as
solid as a. rock. The room with its
walls and ceiling swings about the
floor upon an axis and all the furnish
ment being sohdly in place, swings
with it. 1t goes tumbling with a quiet
symmetrical motion that SO deceives
the person sitting upon that solid floor
that he inagines the walls are station
airy and the floor in motion. The illu-
sion is perfect. Scientific gentlemen
who have investigated the phenome-
non, while knowing full we'll the ma
ture of the apparatus, have testified
to their dizzy condition after witness
ing it. Nine Warde, the noted En-
fish spiritualistic medium, has an ap-
paratus of this kind in her apartments,
which she shows to The easy believers
with the explanation that the propell-
ing power comes from mysterious be-
yond. Thousands of people have been
attracted to her place and humbugged,
and strange to say, many Of the most
intelligent spiritualists have been de-
ceived by her.
Professor Parke c. Wyllis, who has
spent the winter in Paris, gives very
interesting account of his investiga-
ton Of this illusion. He says that it
is the most ingenious deception he ever
witnessed. Although l now know"
he said. that the floor was solid and
motionless at the time l would have
taken my oath that I was revolving in
space with a room full of furniture,
but the illusion was simple. when ex-
planned. The fact that so-called scien-
lists of the spirituahstic school insist
upon attributing the humbug to some
mysterious power is only in keeping
with their nonsensical ideas in gen
eral.''
A number of Ptttsburg gentlemen,
one of whom is we'll known spiritual
list. have under consideration the re-
production Of this illusion in this city.

The Darlington Democrat Of last
week says:
"On Sunday the Darlington nine
went to Willow Springs to add another
scalp TO their belts. and they did II to
the tune of 10 to 8. The playing on
the whole was pretty good on both
sides, but the errors Of the Darlington
boys were costly, letting In seven OF
the eight runs"
II our memory serves us rightly,
Darlington went Republican at the
late spring election by a big majority;
and one OF It's respected citizens IL
now being doomed for the Republican
nomination for governor Of the great
state OF Wisconsin. Surely, there
should be found In such 0 city more
respect for law and public sentiment
than Is indicated by the above item Of
news. Seriously, Is this disregard for
law and public sentiment rightf We
think not. lndiylduAs may nave the
right to follow the dictates OF their
conscience In regard TO Sunday observ-
ance; but, to the mind Of The Demo.
crat, the boldly setting aside Of princi.
Piles and practices which make for
moral, spiritual and intellectual I'D.
vancement in, short continued dis.
regard for human and divine LAWS
dangerous In the extreme. We do not
mean to intimate that our neighboring
city Of Darlington is worse In this re-
gard than any other place; but we do
say, that instead Of giving passive
support to sunday ball playing, by re-
porting 1t, 1t is the duty Of the press
TO dlscountenance II.
