Beware Of 0intments for Catarrh that
Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense
and completely derange the whole sys-
ten when entering it through the mu.
cous surfaces. Such articles should
never be used except on prescription of
reputable physicians, as the damage
they do is ten fold to the good you can
possibly derive from them. Hall g
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, O., contains
no mercury, and is taken internally,
acting directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfsces of the system. In buying
Halls Catarrh Cure be sure you get
the genuine. 1t is taken internally,
and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. j.

paralysis OF industry and impoverishmen,

all gold standard countries.
Experience has shown that while under
the single gold standard there may be an oc-
casional revival of business activity. accom-
panied by enhanced prices Of Il limited num-
ber Of commodities, such revival is duo to
artificial and temporary causes and cannot
permanently alleviate the sufferingS due to
falling prices, brought about by the appre-
citation Of gold and an Inadequate supply Of
primary or redemption money.
"Duty to the people requires that tho
party of the people continue the battle for
bi-metaliSm until its efforts are crowned
with success. Therefore be it:
''Resolved. That we, Democrats of Mis-
souri,, in convention assembled. demand the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver and gold
into primary or redemption money, at the
ratio Of Is to J., without waiting for the
action or approval Of any other nation; and
second,
"Resolved. That we are irrevocably op-
posed to the substitution for metallic money

'iResolved. That we are opposed to the
policy and practice of surrenderinS to the
holders of the obligations ofthc United States
the option reserved by the law to the govern
ment of reducing such obligations in either
silver coin or gold coin fourth,
''Reaolved. That we are opposed to the
issuing of interest-bearing bonds Of the
United States in time Of peace, and especially
are we opposed to placing the Treasury Of
the government under tho control Of any
syndicate of bankers and the issuance of
bonds to be sold by them ut an enormous
profit for the purpose Of supplying the
Federal Treasury with gold to maintain the
policy Of gold mono-mctalliSm.'
Additional resolutions were adopted in
structine the State committee to call Il con-
vention Lot later than August 18th to elect
delegates to the national convention; also
sending congratulations to Senator Black
burn. OF Kentucky. Tho delegates from tho
different congressional districts then named
their candidates for additional members OF
the State committee and they were unani-
mously elected.
At the hight the only feature OF interest
was the speech of Senator Cockrel. At its
conclusion the convention adjourned sine

The election Of the committee at large is
regarded as a victory for "Silver Dollar

japanese Hats.

The mobiles and swels of Japan
now nearly all wear stovepire hats
on solemn and dressy occasions. The
same hat is handed down from gen
Grafton to generation, like the Mi
kado's crown. Many of those on the
street during the festivities celebra-
ting the return of the Emperor were
evidently brought over soon after
Commodore Perry came. and the rest
must have come in installments-since
1858, for they represented every
fashion of hea1gear since that date.
1t is worth noting also, that in the
whole throng there was no drunken
ness, no disorder, no quarreling.
The japanese OF the ordinary sort
do notwear q hat at all, nor does any
Jap consider hat necessary as a
head covering, but merely for the
dignity of it. And the dignity Of the
dude is enhanced by wearing his
stovepipe tile at least two sizes too
large. In the army and by the-po-
licemen neat blue cloth caps are
worn, like a New York Police Cap
tain's. Women wear no head cover
ing at all, or in very cold weather
bring their shawls over their heads.
Peddlers and rickshaw men knot q
white kerchief over their locks, and
the BONES or beggar priests wear
curious hats like inverted bread
bowls, still carrying out the idea that
a hatis a badge of Office rather than
clothing.
One Of the queerest official head
dresses is no longer seen in japan.

DEATH OF MRS. TALMAGE.
Wife of the Celebrated Divine Died on
Monday Morning.


At Dansville, N. Y. the wife Of Dr.. T.
Dewitt Talmage. the celebrated minister Of
Brooklyn, died at $50 Monday morning. She
had been i'll some time. Her husband and
son were at her bedside.
Her death was the result Of nervous pros
tration, brought on by the burning Of tho
Brooklyn Tabernacle.
The fire broke out while the Doctor was
holding his usual Sunday reception, and a;
large number of parishioners and visitors
were In the church when the fire broke out.
They all made good their escape but Dr.!
Talmage went back into the burning edif1ce.
for something he had left behind. During
his absence Mrs. Talmage, who, with other
members Of the family, was outside awaiting
his Temperance became greatly excited!
and alarmed for the Doctors safety. AS
soon as she was informed that he was all
right she broke down completely, her over:
wrought nerves being unequal for such q
strain. {
While DR.. Talmage was absent on lectur-
ing tour in the West last week he received a
telegram summoning him to his wife's bed
side. He at once cancelled all his engage
ments and fastened back to find that there
was very little hope for the patients reco7-
cry, and he remained with her until the end
came this morning.
The deceased was the second wife Of Dr..
Talmage, his first wife was drowned while
boating in 1862. leaving a daughter, Miss
Jessie and son, who has since died. With
in two years afterwards the Doctor married
Miss Susie Whittomore, of Brooklyn.

A.RemarkahIe Snake Story.

Here is snake story with a psy-
Geological aspect. The Clay City,
(Ky.) Chronicle says:
Mr.. aud Mrs. JEFF Martin, who live
on Cat Creek, in this county, had q
thrilling experience one day lass
week. Mr.. and Mrs. Martin have q
bright little boy, 2 years old, who.
while undressed for a bath, desired
his mother to allow him to run and
play. He was sent into o carpeted
room where the curtains were drawn,
and after few minutes, with an ex-
clamation of surprise and delight.
the little fellow came in to the hall
holding in his hands huge copper
head snake, He had grasped it near
the tail, and the reptile was writhing
and twisting, its head nearly reach
ing the floor and moving about the
feet and lower limbs Of the child.
Mr.. Martin: who had just entered the
house, was horror-struck for mo-
ment. He. called loudly to the child
to drop it. The little elbow obeyed
and ran frightened to his fathers
arms. The reptile Immediately
pursued the child and endeavored to
strike him. coiling and darting its
poisonous tongue in the most threat
enine manner. Mr.. Martin dis
pat ched the snake in less time than
it takes to tell it, TO the great dis
tress of the little boy, who seemed
to think he had found beautiful
plaything and was being deprived of
it, and was inconsolable when it was
removed from his sight.

The samiel is hot, noxious, cleo

sandy deserts of Arabia and Africa.
1t moves with the quiekness Of light
ming, and passes in narrow currents
for few minutes at time. 1t deals
instant death to every man or beast
happening to face it, and it is said
that it so decomposes them that
their limbs fall asunder. The ap.
proach of it is indicated by thick
haze in the horizon. and travellers, if
they have time, II row themselves on
their faces, with their feet toward it,
till it has passed. The s!rocco is an
other blighting wind. which prevails
in Italy and adjoining districts about
April. The West Indian hurricanes
are of totally different description,

The design illustrated herewith is
tha5 Of a Swiss cottage, style that
is not fitted for this country in gem
eral.
Swiss architecture is the out
growth of the needs and con litions
OF the inhabitants of Switzerland, and
like all national institutions is most
appropriate to it's natural surround
ings. The life of the Swiss peasant
is divided by his occupations into
two seasons: the summer, when he
is watching and tending his cattle on
the high Alps, and the winter, when
he is forced to find shelter from the
rigorous climate with it's fierce
storms, in the low lying secluded
valleys.
Swiss architecture, as built in this
country, has been, shall we say,
somewhat Anericanized, and the
accompanying sketch shows struc-
ture that would be effective and
pleasing if erected in a suitable To-
cation. The latter points one upon
which an architect, yersed as well
in the technical points of landscape,
should be consulted, as many man
