Countess ToIstoi's Work.

The Countess Tolstoi is described by
Dr. Alice B. Stockham, OF Chicago, in an
account of her visit to Count Tolstoi, as
a notable woman who "has met the diff
ficulties which her husbands lite and
views have presented with remarkable
tact and wisdom. With the care of a
large family, the entire management of
an estate, the mother of thirteen children,
she finds it possible to devote much of
her time to assisting her husband in his
literary labors. His writing is exceed
inglv difficult to decipher, and the infinite
patience with which the Countess copies
his books bears witness to her devo.
tiou." The Countess has catered so
faithfully to the digestive vagaries of her
husband that she declares she could give
dinners of fruit, grains, aud vegetables
365 days in year, and never duplicate
one"

Honesty Developed by Mail Boxes.

That naive trust in human honesty
that one sees here is distinctly Ameri-
can" said an Englishman, pointing to a
letter box. II would like to see Con-
tinental business man lay packages and
large envelopes on the top of the post
boxes. They would be taken before the
glue of the stamps was dry. There is
another reason why we can't do that at
home. Our dear old London fogs would
wipe out the address in short order, and
unless the collections were frequent the
paper would be reduced to pulp. A dry
climate makes you Americans talk with
dreadful nasal accent, but it shows uE
your honesty"

ton, the Beers fleeing on his approach
The British have collected all the cattle
in the district for which receipts have
been given. Had this been done earlier il
would have greatly helped to starve The
Beers out.

A certain learned professor was recent
ly invited to lecture in an English village,
and talked completely over the heads Of
his bucolic audience. At the close of his
lecture he dropped his lofty style and
blandly remarked:
And now, friends, in conclusion, allow
me to say that if any one has question
to ask will do my best to answer him.
1t was very old villager in the bach
seat who slowly rose to his feet anc

living territory the states or nation
might possess. Congress. under this
clearly granted power, has been making
these needful rules and regulations for
the government of territory outside OF
the states, unquestioned, TOR more than
hundred years.
Has anybody, white man, colored man,
yellow man or Indian not taxed" been
Injured or deprived of his liberty by the
exercise of this power? Has it been left
bv Providence to William Jennings
Bryan and the Populists to find out that
the people of this country, without dis
tinction oil party, have been trampling
the declaration of independence under
foot all these years? Was Andrew Jack
son Democrat, or was he an imperial
ist, when he appointed the governor, The
Judges and the council of the territory of
Michigan, allowing the people here, like
the outraged Filipinos, practically no
voice in their own government
The truth is, the bugaboo of imperial
ism is an atterthought and mere cam
pagn thunder, so far as Mr.. Bryan and
his followers are concerned, By means
of it they hope to withdraw or distract
the attention of the people from the
really paramount issue involved in this
campaign, which is this:
Do the American people in the midst OF
great prosperity, when the flag OF our
country is respected throughout the
world, as never before, when all the
signs indicate that we are on the eve of
decade of commercial, manufacturing
and agricultural prosperity unparalleled
in our history, wish to turn over the
management of national affairs to Will
liam Jennings Bryan and the class of
men who constitute his bosom friends
and advisers?
This is the paramount question.
There will be plenty of time hereafter
to settle the Filipino question, the Chin
csc question, the trust question, and a
plenty of time to hang any ambitious
Caesar among US who begins to monkey
with an imperial crown, but there will
never come time when we can safely
tinker with the standard of value estab-
lshed by the common consent of the
civilized and commercial world-the sin
gle thread on which all our national
credit and all our business prosperity
hangs.
So think the duty of the Gold Dem
+ ocrat is clear; he should vote for Vim
: Mckinley, and all other Democrats
S should vote for him also who would rio

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all it's stages and that is catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure now known to the medical frater-
nifty. Catarrh being a constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternaly, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system, there
by destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers, that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that il
fails to cure. Send for list of testimo
mails.

There were sore places on his limbs and
body as large as a mans hand, and
sometimes when he took off his stock
ings they would stick to his skin where
the blood had run down his legs.

cines but did not find cure, until some
one recommended Hoods Sarsaparilla.
Every soon we saw it was taking effect
and we kept on until he had taken three
