Reefton, New Zealand, Nov. 2S,
1896. 1 am very pleased to state that
since took the agency OF Chamber
lain's medicines the sale has been
very large, more especially of the
Cough Remedy. In two years fhave
sold more of this particular remedy
than of all other makes for the previ-
GUS five years. AS to it's efficacy, I've
been informed by scores of persons
of the good results they have receiv-
ed from it, and know its value from
the use of it IN my own household.
It is so pleasant to take that we have
to place the bottle beyond the reach

A Fsise Relationsnip.

The term ''mother country" has %
often been applied TO England In rela-
tion to the United States that it unoon-
sciously colors and mcdifies al our con-
ception Of the attitude of the two ooun-
tries toward each other. Mr. William
Archer has written in the Pail Mall
Magazine. complaining Of false notions
growing ont OF the false name and ssta
the question right with q good deal Of
force in presentation. Instead Of being
mother and daughter, the two countries
are daughters and coheiresses OF the
England Of George III. England has I'm
many particulars revolted from the po-
litical theories Of North and Grenville
no less than did the United States In
many respects she is almost as wide
departure in scope and ideal as the great
republic. Says Mr.. Archer: "Thia In
not the mere question OF terms Il may
at first sight appear. Tho false metaphor
hegetz false feelings on both aides-
England as the mother country falls
into all the besetting sins Of parenthood
"a pedagogic habit, an assumption Of
superior wisdom, experience. even viz
tue, and q resentful amazement at every
manifestation of individuality ON the
part Of her Offspring that does not
happen to be quite convenient. Amer
ica, on the other hand. accepts the rela-
tionship in words. only to realize the
more keenIy the absence of any valid
and essential fact behind 1t. If ''moth-
err at ALL she instinctively feels. then
"stepmother I''' and the result is apt
to be an imbittered sense of friction.
According to the authors very just
reasoning, there ia no righteous claim
of language and literature being mure
specifically British than American. In
deed, as has been often shown, the Ian
guage as spoken and used in this coun-
try is in many ways more closely allied
to old English than is the linguai Gus
tom of contemporary England. Aside
from the fact of the current locutions Of
America possessing all the iacy smack
of the most genuine Saxon, the written
language of Irving. Hawthorne. Long
fellow and Lowell is quite as close 60
that Of Shakespeare. Milton, Pope and
Swift as are the written style and word
Of Thackeray, Tennyson and Matthew
Arnold.
The same analogy holds good Of po-
J litical and social development. In
slightly divergent lines. yet closely par
allel and sympathetic withal, run the
current theories and ideals Of life. equal
ly organic in their relations TO the con-
stitution Of Anglican thought. Mr..
Archer might well have illustrated bis
excellent theory. il such Etatemcnt Of
the obvious can be called theory, by the
assertion that the Ionian, Doric and
.Eolic branches Of old Greek life and
literature were far more dissentient
from the Attic than is the embodied
mind of America from that Of contem-
porary England. Yet no one would dare
to say that Homer is less Greek than
Eschylus or that the democratic civism
of Athens was less Hellenic than the
austere monarchy of Sparta.

THE SAFE BLOWER
Still Languishes Behind the Prison
Bars,

Geo. Young, the man arrested by
Marshal Dye on Thursday for having
in his possession complete kit Of
tools for safe blowing, is still held in
the city prison. The case has attract
ed a great deal of attention and the
outcome of it is looked forward to
with much interest.
Marshal Dye has left no stone un-
turned to place the escaped confeder-
ate of Young behind the bars and is
in possession of facts which we are not
permitted to print, that will in few
days land the guilty man.
The Marietta man connected with
the case is being carefully watched
and cannot escape.
1t is known that the two strangers
met certain citizen of this city at the
corner of Fifth and Montgomery
streets on Wednesday evening of this
week, and asked the way to the Chair
Co. Office. They also asked him if he
knew the amount of business they did.
They were seen in that neighborhood
several evenings and have also been
seen on Fourth streets and at the depots
There Is no doubt but that they had
planned wholesale blowing open of
safes in this city, and Marshal Dye is
to be complimented on his good judg-
ment in placing Young in safe keep
ing. Young is known to be man of
bad character and has run a speak
easy in the Indiana oil fields and also
in those of West Virginia.

Henry, John Weinheimer and John
Shears-were in Mr.. Mellor's barn
Thursday afternoon, there came a reg

thunder and lightning. One bolt of
lightning struck the barn and tore up
part of the roof and shivered rafter.
The barn, however, did not take fire,
although it was filled with hay and
grain and other valuable contents. 1t
is wonder that the barn did not
catch afire, and Mr.. Mellor is to be
congratulated that it did not. The
rain came down in torrents, and In
dian Run went out with terrific force
and fullness.

THE WHEELS OF HEALTH.

woman in thoroughly good health than
bicycling. On the contrary, If she suffers
from weakness or disease Of the distinctly
feminine organs, If she rides, at all, such
exercise should be very sparingly INDUCED
in Women are peculiarly constituted and
their general health is peculiarly dependent
upon the health of the specially feminine
organism.
1t is the health of these delicate and i'm.
portant parts that makes the wheels of
general health go round" Their strength
and vigor are as important to woman as
handspring to a watch, or a sprocket and

The concert given by the Marietta

evening, was the best, if anything that

The band, which we all thought was
a fine one, certainly shows great ad-
vancement under the direction of Mr..
Hibbins.
The program was varied one and
brought out a scope of music which
would do credit to the larger bands OF
the cities.
Prof. Hibbins informs us that in the
near future he will make additions to
the band that will place it in position
to face any band of larger proportion
