OF Very Common Clay.

The following, from the lips OF
Chas. Summer a good many years
ago, is interesting now, with all
this Republican elamor for uphold
ing the sanctity of the Courts to
the extent of placing them beyond
the pale of criticism:
"FoR myself let me say that
hold judges, and especially the
supreme court, in much respect;
but am too familiar with the his
tory of judicial proceedings to re-
gard them with any superstitious
reverence. Judges are but men,
and in all ages have shown full
share of human fraility. Alas |!
alas! the worst crimes of history
have been perpetrated under their
sanction. The blood of martyrs
and of patriots crying from the
ground, summons them to judg-
ment. 1t was a judicial tribunal
which condemned Socrates to
drink the fatal hemlock, and which
pushed the Savior barefooted over
the pavements of Jerusalem, bend
ing beneath his cross. 1t was
judicial tribunal which, against
the testimony and entreaties of
her father, surrendered the fair
Virginia as a slave-which arrest
ed the teachings of the great
apostle to the Gentiles, and sent
him in bonds from Judea to Rome
and afterward, in the name of
the new religion, enforced the
tortures of the Inquisition, amid
theN shrieks and agonies of it's
victims. while it compelled Gal
ileo to declare, in solemn denial
of the great truth he had disclosed,
that the earth did not move round
the sun. 1t was a judicial tribunal
which, in France, during the long
reign of her monarchs, lent itself
to be the instrument of every ty-
ranny, as during the brief reign of
terror it did not hesitate to stand
forth the IMPLYING accessory of
the Implying guillotine. Ay, sir,
it was judicial tribunal in Eng
fand, surrounded by all forms Of
law, which sanctioned every
despotic caprice of Henry VIII,
from the unjust divorce of his
Queen to the beheading OF Sir
Thomas Moore-which lighted the
fires of persecution that glowed at
Oxford and Smithfield, over the
cinders of Latimer, Ridley and
John Rogers-which, after ell
aborate argument, upheld the fatal
tyranny of ship money against
the patriotic resistance of Hamp-
den-which, in defiance of justice
and humanity, sent Sydney and
Russell to the block-which per-
sistently enforced the laws of con-
formity that our Puritan fathers
persistently refused to obey, and
afterward, with Jeffreys on the
bench, crimsoned the pages of
English history with massacre and
murder, even with the blood of
innocent women. Ay, sir, it was
a judicial tribunal in our own
country, surrounded by all forms
of law, which hung witches at
Salem which affirmed the con-
stitutionality of the stamp act,
while it admonished Jurors and
people to obey-and which now,
in our day, lends itself to the un-
utterable atrocity of the fugitive
slave act"

HUMAN BODY ADEQUATE FOR ALI
DEMANDS OF LIFE
@. What common-sense post
ulate does osteopathy affirm con-
cerning the body?
A. That the human body is a
complete machine, faultlessly con-
structed, perfectly adapted to the
ends of living, and able to run an
ordinary lifetime with ease, COM
fort and health if only the de-
mands of life, are satisfied
namely, proper food and drink,
proper air, proper work and rest,
and the machine itself being kept
in good mechanical order. The
body has within itself all the ma
chinery needed to build up itself
from one primal cell into the most
complete and marvellous organism
constructed by the Master Mechan-
ic; all the machinery needed to
rebuild it's own parts as it wears
them away with work; it's own
mysterious, automatic, self-ad-
justing, self-regulating apparatus
which subordinates each separate
organ and force TO the needs of
the whole engine; it's own devices
and processes for celebrating food
elements into living protoplasm
and transforming the potential en-
ergy of the body's food-fuel into
kinetic forms of animal work; its
own lnscrutable methods of CO.
ordinating physical activity with
physiological processes-all of
which goes on inomentarily in the
life experience of normal, health
full bodies "without attention, with
scarcely moments wonderment
at these unceasing marvels!" This
machine, like an engine of wood
and iron, is built upon mechanical
principles and its mechanism in
cludes every mechanical principle
and device known to architecture,
mechanics and the arts. AS put
in the words Of on editorial in the
Ladies Home Journal:
"The human body is an epitome o
in Nature of all mechanics, all hy-
draulics, all architecture, all ma
chinery of every kind. There are
more than $40 mechanical move
ments known to mechanics to- day,
and all Of these are notifications
of those found in the human body,
Here are all the bars, levers, joints,
pulleys, wedges, pumps, pipes,
spirals, eccentrics, wheels and
axles, ball-and-socket movements,
beams, girders, trusses, buffers,
arches, columns, cables and sup
ports known to science. At every
point mems best mechanical work
can be shown to be but adapta-
tions of processes of the human
body, revelation of the first prin-
ciples used in Nature" How
wonderful this is!
Like-other machines, therefore,
the body is subject to the same
penalties Of getting out Of repair
bad alignment creeps in, friction
develops, conducting "wires'' (the
nerves. are grounded, pipes (blood
and secretory channels) clog, the
orderly procedure lags, function
is subverted; then structures waste
away and cannot be repaired, the
whole engine is thrown out of
gear, health is lost aud eventually
If harmony is not restored by
good anatomical engineering
death supervenes. The human
engine has served it's day and is
ready for the scrap-pile. Osteop-
athy is able to delay this de-
nouement for a decade or two in
countless cases by the application
Of good mechanical sense to the
regulation of body process before,

Rheumatic
Pains

"My mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DR..
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her.
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Royce6eld, N. J..
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence Of
pain, which SO frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not dcrange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them2 Get a pack
