DIR. JOSEPH NJ. TONER.

The news Of the death of DR.. Joseph NJ.
Toner will cause more than ordinary
regret in Washington. with whose inter-
ests he was identified for so many years,
and in whose material progress lie tcoS
n lively pride. In fact, it is not putting
the case too strongly to say that he was
no inconsiderable factor in advancing
those interests, for he was public-spirited
citizen. who reckoned neither personal ror
pecuniary sacrifice when any important prof.
ect was to be promoted. Among the local
physicians OF the past generation he was
one OF the leaders, nor was his reputation
confined to the District, for he was a pro-
life writer ON medical matters, and re-
garded as high authority among the
men of his profession everywhere.
After retiring from practice Dr. Toner
devoted himself altogether TO literary pur-
suits. Having no family ties, though re-
joicing in a large circle of devoted friends,
his books were bis constant compa MONS,
but at the same time he never failed to
evince the liveliest concern in all public
events and questions. His last and most
important act of public benefactiou was
the donation TO the United States OF his
superb library, which is now Incorporated
in the national library, under the title
OF the Toner Collection. Personally DIR.
Toner was an amiable, genial, courteous
| gentleman of the old school, kindly in all
relations Of life, and of probity which not
even the shadow of a doubt ever tainted
| His life and career furnish an admirable
model for young men, for he was always
intent upon doing his whole duty as
citizen and in his chosen profession.

People shudder at the tales of Monte
Carlo suicides, but look on with perfect
equanimity while friends and loved ones
commit just as certain suicide by neglecting
their health Trifing disorders of the di-
gestion persistently neglected lead to I'M
purity of the blood, the tissues of the body
are imperfectly nourished, and emacia-
ton and debility follow. In the case of
that dread disease, consumption, imperfect
ly nourished tissue is built up in the lungs,
forming suitable soil for the germs of that
deadly disease. One-seventh of all the
deaths each year are due to consumption.
This fearful death rate could be easily
avoided if the proper remedy was re-
sorted to.
A sure preventive and cure of consufnp.
ton is found in Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. 1t cures 90 per cent. of all
cases. It corrects all disorders of digestion,
invigorates the liver, and makes the blood
pure and plentiful. 1t is the great blood
maker, builder, and nerve invigorator.
1t gets into the blood and acts directly upon
the lungs, building up healthy tissue and
driving out all impurities and disease germs.
Thousands have testified to its wonderful
merits. Druggists sell it.

all the distressing symptoms, and in fact the
cure seemed almost miraculous to all who saw
me. I cannot say enough in praise of the medi
cine, and have done much to induce others Il

Mariners and Travellers
Speak in high terms of the preventative
remedial properties of Hostetters Stom-
ach Bitters, medicine peculiarly adapted
to the wants of those called on to exper-
fence the vicissitudes of climate, the in
clemency OF the weather, the hardships of
sea-faring or out-of-door life, or the dan
gers of malarial or otherwise pestilen-
tial atmosphere. A small quantity of
this agreeable tonic nullifies impurities in
water, and fortifies the stomach against
the consequences Of an unhealthy or un-
accustomed diet. It also enables the CON-
stitution to bear up unframed against
unhealthy climatic influences, and the sys-
tenn to sustain, unimpaired in health and
vigor, the fatigues of travelling. Emil
grants, tourists, miners and others who
have thoroughly tested the efficacy of the
article, declare it to be sovereign pre-
sentative of health under conditions
most unfavorable.

Anyhow, a man doesn't have to marry
to prove that he had chance.
Nearly every bridegroom thinks his
bride is too good for him. If he doesn't,
she is.
The term old maid m ust be misnomer.
Who ever heard OF an unmarried woman
being over 29s
Every married man gets some things
he doesn't get and gets some things he
doesn't expect.
II is mistake to speak of marriage as a
lottery. In lottery man has chance
ITO win something.
Few women exercise the same care in
choosing husband that they do in Sc.
Letting wedding dress.
A woman always has lots of arguments
to prove that man should be married,
but they are far less interesting than the
arguments she brings to bear on young
woman

Trees.

Set out trees: adorn the homestead:
Make 1t pleasant all around;
Let the elms and oaks and naples
With the evergreens abound;
Let the home be so attractive
That the boy that Ia today,
When he shall arrive at manhood
And in foreign lands may stray,
Turn with longing heart and loving
To his home these hills among,
Thinking how the trees are thriving
Which he helped to plant when young.
Set out trees along the highway;
Place them thick on either side;
In the present Joyous springtime,
Every one his part provide;
Set out walnuts. chestnuts. beeches
Where the playful squirrels come.
In the hemlocks, frs and spruces
Shall the song birds find home.
Let their branches. growing, twining,
Forming arches DER the way,
Shield the horse and screen the rider
Through the long, hot summer day;
Thick green leaves the golden sunshine
Hiding while the dog star reigns,
Then, when autumn paints them gayly,
Carpeting the hills and plains.
Set out trees, upon the common,
Ashes, lindens, poplars, birch;
Set them out around the schoolhouse;
Place them thick about the church:
Have the children's playground shaded
And the public walks as well,
And the joys from these arising
Coming ages glad will tell.
These shall live and grow and gladden.
While we molder meath their leaves.
Let us. then, improve the present
Leave behind us priceless trees.

My Soldier.


Across my nursery carpet
There marches every day
A sturdy little soldier,
Intent on fancied fray.
He wears wooden musket,
A paper soldier cap.
And round his waist is buckled
A battered harness strap.
Oh, precious little warrior,
With eyes Of dearest blue
And golden ringlets shining,
My heart yearns over you'll
You little know the battle
You soon will have to fight:
You little know the struggle
Which soon will test your might.
God grant the same bright spirit,
The same uplifted head.
The same undaunted courage,
The same unfaltering tread,
May be your own in manhood,
To meet its trials sore,
As now In "playing soldier"
Across the nursery floor.
