Remedy, and after that | bought and
took soc bottle; and now | can say
that am entirely cured. cannot be
thankful enough to you for this great

1t is not charitable to encourage laz-
mess by affording professional beggars
a better income than they could obtain
by honest labor; it is not charitable to
encourage vice by confirming class in
the notion that it is right and proper
to prey on society, and who direct their
efforts finally to force when fraud
ceases to pay; it is not charitable to
lessen the chances Of the really deserv-
ing poor for the relief on which they
have Just claim. With too many OF
this soft hearted disposition repeated
deception has hardening effect, and
all poor are lndiscriminately classed as
impostors. System and organization
are the means by which the most good
will be accomplished; in short, charity
should be bestowed IA a duty, rather
than pleasure. Western Odd Fellow.

Something To Know.

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restor-
ing the tired out nervous system to a
healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone to the nerve centres in the
stomach, gently stimulates the Liver
and Kidneys, and aids these organs in
throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bitters improves the appetite,
aids digestion, and is pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very
best blood purifier and nerve tonic

or ut least to force compromise. The
new President, however, if true to his
convictions, will press the battle for
higher duties. This no doubt will en-
list more of his sympathy than the dis

a number of suhOrtlinates to take care
