WAFER VS.. WINE

Apropos OF the christening OF the
"Kentucky" with water, the "Union
Signal" the newspaper of the W, &. I.
T., contrasts, in its last issue, the record
of the United States warships christened
with water with those at whose launch
ing wine had been used. The COnstilu-
ton, or "Old Ironsides," was christened
with water taken from spring at Bun
ker Hill, while the Hartfort was chris
tend with bottle of Connecticut river
water. Both these vessels, the Signal
points out, had magnificent records,
while those of the warships President,
Mississippi, Huron, Ornado. Tecumseh,
Nipsic, Vandalia, Trenton and Maine
all christened with wine-were records
of ill-luck. In the President a large
gun exploded. killing several visitors
and officers; the Mississippi was lost in
the Potomac during the civil war; the
Huron was lost off Cape Hatteras, with
all on board; the Ornado was run into
by all English vessel in Bombay harbor
and over 100 officers and men lost; the
Tecumseh was lost in Mobile Bay; the
Nipsic. the Vandalia and the Trenton
T off Samoa; and the Maine in Havana
harbor.

Il was in most dreadful condition.
My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunk

back and sides, no appetite-gradually
growing weaker day by day. Three
physicians had given me up. Fortunate

the first bottle made a decided improve
ment. l continued their use for three
weeks, and am now a well man. l know
they saved my life, and robbed the

Remarkable Rescue.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfeld, H.,
makes the statement that she caught
cold, which settled on her lungs: she was
treated for a month by her family ply
stefan, but grew worse. He told her
she was hopeless victim of consump-
ton and that no medicine could cure
her. Her druggist suggested DR.. Kings
New Discovery for Consumption; she
bought bottle and to her delight
found herself benefited from first dose.
She continued its use and after taking
six bottles, found herself sound and
well, now does her own housework
and is well as she every was--Free

THE NATION Is AS ONE MAN.

By Mrs. jefferson Davis, in n. Y. World. ]
A few days ago a paragraph copied
from a paper published in Madrid stated
the OpinOin that in case of war be-
tween the United States and Spain a
great element OF weakness to the Uni
ted States would be the danger that the
Southern people might seize that occa
sion to revenge their wrongs upon the
people Of the North.
The principles ofthe two governments
are so radically different that one can
readily see how the Spaniards might
make such a mistake. One asserts a
divine right TO govern by accident of
ancestry; the other insists that the di-
vine right resides in each citizen OF his
country, and each American answers to
its call promptly and cheerily because
he is joint owner of the whole country
from Maine to Alaska and from the ut
most boundary OF Texas to California.
Feeling this SENSE OF possession, he
fights for his own property in the part
nershIp of States, won by his ancestors
valor OF his own, which he knows will
be governed by himself and his descend
