But now comes the task of getting
for his friends places which are not,
like the postoffices, regarded as s.be.
longing'' to the member of Congress-,
but for which he must compete with
other members, and oven with the more
formidable Senators-places in the de-
partments, or consuships, OF foreign
missions, or revenue Offices or Indian
agencies, and what not. He visits the
departments one after another, and
humhly seeks in each the favor oi that
awful potentate, the appointment clerk,
who can keep him informed of existing
vacancies, and who also may sec to it
that his papers are opportunely brought
to the attention of the secretary when
ever good chance for catching an
office occurs. And, oh, those hours of
desolate standing around, and of
anxious waiting for propitious mo-
ment when he can pour his supplica-
tions into the ear of the President or
of the cabinet ministers, painfully
aware that the more impreseivey he
speaks the more he is in danger of
being set down by them as an intoler-
able bore!
That, however, is not the worst of it.
Presently he discovers that he cannot
possibly secure all the places he asks
for, that he cannot crafty all the
hopes he has excited perhaps only very
few Of them-and that he must con-
centrate his efforts upon those few and
drop the rest, lest he lose all. As to
the few to be favored, he is sorely
tempted to select those whom he may
expect to be the most useful to him,
with scant regard for their fitness as
to the places desired But how drop
the rest? Can he tell them that he is
unable to press their claims to a sue.
cessful Issue while they see him press
the claims of others? This would be
the way to make enemies. 1t cannot be
thought Of. But what else can he do?
Make them believe that he is pressing
their claims, but that, after heroic
effort, he is defeated by superior in
huence; throw the responsibility upon
the President or the cabinet ministers?
In this manner weeks and weeks pass
after the incoming of the new admins
tration, and still our friend has on his
hands formidable number of pursuers
to whom he has promised something
equally as good" and others, too. to
whom he has promised nothing, but
whom he thinks he cannot afford to
offend by blunt refusals. Some have
left Washington, but flood him with
letters. Others have stayed and in
oomitably dog his steps. Some owe
boarding bills in Washington, and have
no money left for the home journey. In
his despair he pays their bills, and
buys them their railroad tickets, to de-
| liver himself OF tine insufferable inflic-
| tion, promising to move heaven and
earth for them in their absence. But
there are few who still have funds
and will not go, and from them the
wretched statesman, jaded and dis
gusted, at last runs away himself and
hurries home.
So far he has gone only through the
experience of the first months after
the incoming of the new administra-
tion while Congress was not in session.
| The time arrives for Congress to meet,
and now he thinks he will atone for it
all by giving his whole soul to that
duty for tho performance of which he

A CURIOUS CALCULATION.

An eminent physician has made curious
mathematical calculation in giving the
workings Of the human heart in mileage.
lie shows that in lifetime of 81 years
the blood as it passes through the heart is
thrown a distance Of 6,l6O,S8O miles, which,
in continuous stream, would reach around
the world FOG times
Keeping in view this constant strain on
the heart, and taking into consideration the
abuse it receives from over.exertion alco-
holic and other stimulants is it any wonder
that II finally becomes affected, refuses to
perform its work, and causes death2 The
fact can be readily understood that one in
four has weak heart, also the Importance Of
treating that organ as soon as its affected con-
dition is in the slightest degree manifested.
Reader, If you have any reason whatever
for believing your heart to be affected, you
should attend to it at once. Do not hest
tate. Many persons who die suddenly Of this
disorder have never suspected its presence.
