impressive under any circumstances, and this increased today as he near ed the climax of his characterization to a pitch of hot passionate utter. ance that made him more eloquent than any one who has spoken in Con gress for years. AS the full intent of is words became apparent, the Speaker rattled savagely with his gavel. But Brown was no more to be stopped than a whirlwind. He leaned forward. his face crimson with the passionate determination that moved him, and his hands clenched together as if to force the scathing words out faster and still more forcibly. As his voice died on their ears the first impulse moved everyone to long breath of relief Such stinging words of Pronunciation put with so much real el0quence, are rarely heard, and could not but have moved the most stoliu auditor"
 Brown was censured by the Speak CT and wore the penalty as a badge of honor. He is the only man per haps who ever pierced the sensitive side of Ben" Butler. Since his re- tirement from Congress he has de- voted himself to the practice of his profession, save for his term as gov ernor.

 accusa tion against that people should come from one who is out Iawed in his own home from respect able society; whose name is synony-

 Speaking of the effect of this at tack, newspaper writer of the day said:
 Butler himself was one of the first to catch the meaning of the hot biting words which rang out so clear and distinct that not one syla- ble was unheard in the farthest cor her of the hall. He elutched ner- vousIy at his desk and leaned for ward as if he wanted to drink in the fearful arralgnment to the full. Brown was evidently deeply in earn est, and after a first interruption by Hale of New York had the benefit of an exceedingly attentive audience; everyone, both on the floor and in the galleries, having turned to hear what he intended to say.

4 FAMOUS REJOINOER.
John Young Browns seathing Reply
 to General Butler Recalled.

To many of the generation who are now discussing the chances of John Young Brown for the govern orship of Kentucky, MT, Brown is new character on the public stage; but the older set of newspaper read CTS will remember him very we'll for his successful canvass for the gov ernorship in 1891, but better still for his share in a noteworthy scene on the floor of the House of R present ta- tiYes, says the Boston Transcript. Brown was elected to Congress in 1859, before he had attained the con- stitutional age, but did not take his seat until he had passed his twenty fifth birthday, so that no one could cavil. He had already, in stumping Kentucky in behalf of the Douglas wing of the Democratic party, made himself famous as an orator of the natural school, to which Patrick Henry and some other of our earlier agitators and politicians belonged At first he does not appear to have made a marked impression in Con- 5gress. but his name became assOqiat- ed during the reconstruction sera with repeated attempts to be admit ted to the House on irregular official certificate, and with failure in each effort through the untiring resistance of the radical leaders, headed by i'Ben. Butler of Massachusetts. Brown laid this up against Butler, and waited patiently for an oppor- tunity tU make things even. It came one day, after he had succeeded in getting back into Congress, when Butler gave him a text by delivering a violent philippic against the South ern people, aud particularly against the people of Louisiana, who were just then in the midst of the struggle which ended with the overthrow of the Kellogg dynasty. Browns re- .sponse was as follows:
 'sMr. Speaker, the South is broken. It lies in helplessness and despair, with homes dilapidated, villages wasted, it's people bankrupt. Is there nothing in that situation to touch you with pity? If your mag nanimitY cannot be touched, will you not be moved by some sense of justice? By a conspiracy between the attorney general and Kellogg and drunken federal Judge, the sov- ereignty of State was overthrown. The usurpation has been perpetrated by bayonets. But recently one of your generals entered the legislative halls as Cromwell entered Gthe Eng fish Parliament with Colonel Pride, and ruthlessly expelled the occu- pants. Onward and onward you go in defiance os the sentiment of the country, remorselessly determined, it seems, to drive the Southern peo- pie to destruction. to give their roofs to the flames and their flesh to the eagles. A federal general steps on the scene and sends a despatch that the people of the State are bau- ditti. We have heard it echoed else where that they were thieves and murderers and night riders. The clergy of that State. Jew and Gen. tile, have denied it. The business men and Northern residents have de- nied it. A committee of your wn House, a majority being Republicans have given it solemn and emphatic contradiction and nailed the islander to the counter.
 Nov, what should De said if that accusation should come from oue-I speak not of men, but of language

What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is che science Of treating
disease without the use of drugs or
knives.
1t is not massage nor rubbing as many
would have you think.
1t is, on the contrary, scientific man
ipulation of the body, especially the
frame work, with the end 10 view OF ad-
justing slight misplaoements. laxations
and unnatural tension which is so COM
mon in the framework Of the human
body and which is usually caused by un-
due strain, falls, exposure, blows and
kicks.
The Osteopath recognizes the normal
and perfectly adjusted human machine
as a complete work and all it needs to
run it through long useful life is good
food and water. Out of which material
the internal organs will set to work and
elaborate the proper chemical elements.
Now these chemical elements being
allowed to circulate through all joints
OF the body as they should, will keep
the body warm, nourish and repair it.
If arrangement Of the system is due to
misplacements OF bone, cartilage or mus
Gle, as is true in the majority OF cases,
the condition is usually easily removed,
recovery follows with equal frequency.
Thus, eye diseases are often caused by
slight displacements Of the atlas verte-
bra, asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia and
other lung diseases by rib displacsments;
heart and stomach diseases by ribs and
vertebra.
Diseases of liver, kidneys and other
viscera by slight dislocations Of lower
vertebre. Now, it is found. with u re-
markable degree Of uniformity. that those
diseases respond quickly to the correo-
ton of these honey displacements.
Osteopathic treatment will not injure
the patient nor will there be any re-
action for the treatment il in accord
with natures laws.

In country houses a very good idea
is to paint the floor and woodwork one
color, sharply contrasting with the
walls.
If the floor is of soft wood and car
pet is necessary, the effect may be inn
proved by laying few small rugs
down over the carpet to break the mo-
notony.
Give the floor covering beautiful
color, but beware of designs which are
confusing to the eye. AS carpet or
rug must be walked on light color is
not suitable, something rich, deep
and cheerful being preferred.
Many people make the mistake of
beating the rugs which cover their
floors. AS rugs are never so closely
woven as carpets they should only be
brushed or thoroughly swept. If care
is taken an ordinary rug will outwear

A man out at Rogers park broke bis

the doctor made some mistake, or else
the patient was at fault, for when it set
the bone Joined improperly. and when
the man came to walk he found that
one leg was several inches shorter than
y should be. He was naturally very
much inconveniencedand bemoaned the
fact that he was to be cripple for life.
One day while he was alone at the
house q woman book canvasser was ad-
mitted. After she had failed to sell him
what she had she asked him what tho
matter was. He told her and said that
he feared he would be a cripple for life.
"Humph!" said the woman. "There
10 no need Of that now since Christian
science is doing SO much"

Christian science" said the man. "but
I never heard that it could cure q trou.

"Why not7' asked the woman. "It

"But there il none here, replied the
man.
"Well, said the woman, "I'm some
thing of healer myself. can't stay
here, but I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll
give you the absent treatment You just
stay where you are, and I'll cure your
short leg" And she went away.
The man smiled, but he thought there
might be something in it after all. So
be began to have faith in the healer. In
. few days, however, he had almost for
gotten all about it and joked with hia
wife about the matter. AT the end OF
two weeks he arose to standing posi-
tion and discovered to his great aston
lshment that his short leg was nearly

great injustice in smiling in my disbe-

were of equal length. He left his room
for the first time in several months and
went to business. He proudly showed
his leg to all his friends and told every
one Of the marvellous means by which
be recovered. Everything went we'll
for a time, but presently the man made
the astonishing discovery that the cured
limb was still growing. In another two
weeks 1t was fully two inches longer
than the one which had not been broken
and that 1t was the yell leg on which
he now limped.
This naturally worried him very
much. You see, there was no telling
where it would end. Then he reoolleot.

healer was, or where he could find her.

ceremonial A~.

In his lecture on primitive Religious
Hxprsssion" Professor D. @. Brinton says
that ceremonial law is found to exist in
every tribe and Ia obeyed with surprising
punctuality. 10 is often absurd and ridiou-
tous, but Is obeyed just the same. Among
osrtain tribes 1t Is against this law to roast
. pig. only boiling Of that animal being
allowed. With other tribes no fuel from
two different species Of trees may be used
for the same fire, and in knmohatka .
oartain tribe has a ceremonial law which
prohibits the scraping of snow from the
boots with metal knife and another law
which threatens with boils any one who
kills very young duck. 1t Is believed
that punishment for the infraction Of any
Of these laws falls not upon the individual,
but upon bis tribe. Darwin found very
little religion among the Patagonians, but
