StomachLiver Cure The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. , ' It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar. It is Lafe and Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country-bthe Great South American Medicine Company, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by the native inhabitants of Son tli America, who rely almost wholly upon its great medicinal powers to cure every form of disease by which they are overtaken. This new and valuable South American medicine possesses powers and qualities hitherto unknown to the medical profession. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cur's ot Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, anil diseases of the general Nervous bystem. It also cures all fo::ms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by the Great Nervine Tonic qualities which it possesses and by its great curative powers f on the digest ive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and sti engthener of the life forces or the human body and as a great renewer of a broken down constitution. It is also of more rsal permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the Lungs than any ten consumption remedies ever use. I on this continent. It is. a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of a) 1 ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic almost

coistantly for the space or two or three years, it will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthen sr and curative is of inestimable value to the ajed and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a ne w hold on life.

NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure fir every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or tho oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tentiis of all the ailments to w hich the human family is heir, are dependent on ne rvons exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply rf nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, soinai marrow and nerves is the result Starved nerves, like

stowed muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied, and a thousand weak nesjea and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system :nust supply all the power by which the vital forces of the

body are carried on, re is the nrst to sutler ior want ot penect nutrition. Ordinary food dies not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This recent production of the South American Continent has been found, by anaty is, to contain the essential dements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its magic power to cure all forms of nervous

derangements. Cbawvobx svnis, lm., Aug. 20, 8G.

Advices from Alaska are to the effect that Prof. Charles Edwards, a iltizon of Dallas County, low i, but for the past four years in tho moiJloy of the Government in Alaska as teacher and missionary to the Indians, bad beo.n brutally murdured by a idosperido (named Campboll. The particulars, though meager, are thought to bo as follows: Campbell bad been selling liquor to the Indians, and Prof. Edwards ordered him arrested. Tho Indians promptly followed the orders and kept Campbell a prisoner by tying htm up In a hut until ho could be tried and sent to prison. Ho got loose, however, and for revenge deliberately shot and killed the Professor. The remains will be brought to his home at Earl ham, la., for interment. Anarcltlsts Hi Bnroelona. Barcelona special: The troubles in Barcelona between the anarchists and the authorities show no sign of abatement at present, but, tho two or three disturbances that have occurred this week have not been serious enough to render necessary the calling out of tho military to aid the gendarmes in preserving order. Though revolver shots have been exchanged by the police and merabors of tho mob, nobody has been hurt except a woman, who, it is believed, had nothing whatever to do with the affair in which she was wounded. Tho execution of tho four anarchists at Xeres is behoved to have precipitated the disturbances, their friends here desiring to show their sympathy for them. Over a Bridge. The regular freight train from West Boston on tho Fitchburg road, was wrecked on the Nashau River bridge at Aver, Mass.

It - is thought that tho wreck was caused by the breaking of the trucks of the fifth car. Tho wrecked cars wero loaded with hay and grain. Conductor R. G. Connors was last seen upon the top of tho cars near the middle of the train. As he has not reported there is but little doubt that he is in tho river under the cars. Whisky and Indiana Will Not Mix. White Oaks (S. M.) special. Tho Mescallero Indians on the reservation near here obtained whisky and indulged to such an extent that thov got to fighting among themselves. Revolvers and knives wero brought into play, and the result ol' the battle was the killing ot four bucks and one squaw. The Indians, the only participants in the fight who were not killed, have been arrested a tid placed in the guard house on the reservation. This killing was entirely among the Indians themselves and does not involve the white settlors. Engineer Killed. Tilbury Center (Ontl special: While an east-bound freight train on the Michigan Central railroad was standing on the main lino at this station it was run into by a west-bound train which should have taken a side track. Both ol the engines and a couple of cars wero badly wrecked. Engineer Deyell, aged 28, of St. Thomas, who was running tho westbound engine, was instantly killed. The rest of the trainmen escaped by jumping. Down an Elevator. Mark Lee, aged 2?, a tailor employed by E A.

MR. BLAINE DRAWS OUT.

IS NOT NOW A CANDIDATE FOB THE PRESIDENCY, His Formal tLetter of Withdrawal Sent to Chairman Clarkson Vario'is Views as to How It Will Concern Other Possible Candidates Political Gossip. EfTocv of the Declaration. Blaine Is not a eandidato for tho Presidency. B e has made this oftloicl announcement in the following letter to Chairman Clarkson, of the Republican National Committee: Wakhinoton, n. C. lion. J. a Clarkson, Chal -man of tbe Republican National Committee, Dear Sib I am not a ,-r.ndldate for the Presidency, and my name will net go lo1'oro ibe Republican. Nat ional Convention for the nomination. I make this announcement In duo season. To ilioso who liavo tendered me their rapport I o iro sincere thsaks, and am most pratoful for their confidence. They will, I am sure, make earnest effort In the apuruachlnff contest, which Is ren dered especially Important by reason of J AMES GILLESPU: BLAINE. the Industrial and flnanclil policies of the Government coins at sta'ie. The nooular decision on these issues is of great moment ana will ne or far-reaching consequence. Very sincerely yours Jested G. IIlaise. In speaking of his withdrawal Mr. liiaine said: i don t f ippose any man who has once sought tho ofuce can truthfully say hedoesn't care for It. 1 confess I would like to be President, but I wl.ll never again risk my health and lift In seeking it. The oflluo of Seoretary of btate is a broad -enough Held for me dur ing the rest ot my publie career." Democrats ugree with practical unanimity that Maine not being in it, nothing can prevent President Harrison's renoriin&tion, tiini Republican Congressmen are mostly of the same opinion. Members of the lulmmietration naturally will not discuss the situation for publication. FAVOBITE SONS TO THE FBONT, While no one in Washington, writes our correspondent, questions thaC tbe ultimate effect of Mr. Blaine's declina tion will be the renomination of President Harrison, the immediate result will be to start up fdl the favorite son candidacies. Senator Cullom's expectation of a Cuilom delegation from Illinois, with some supficirt from the new Mates in the Northwest, has already been set forth, and it is said the Illinois Senator will now f, SL CCi.LOH. start iu a$ an avowed candidate anil will l ave his name presented to the Minneapolis convention. Senator Allison has not got to this point yet, but In the end he will probably give the Iowa delegation t ermission to name him, Ge. Alger, in spite of Michigan's divided electoral vote, is a full-fledged candidate. He may try to rally all the disaffocted anti-Harrison elements around him, mid look for votes in New York and tho E :t its well as in the South. It is more than probable that ex-Speaker Reed will take advantage of Mr. Blaine's declination to seek a New England delegation for himself. Mr. Reed really has the Presidential nmtntion ana wants to get in trainln,? for a nomination. The only possible candidacy that excites muoh attention Is John Sherman's. Mr. Sherman himself is a stanch supporter of Preside!) tHarrison's administration. But Senator Sherman's- colleagues say h,j has a noJOBK SHERMAN, tion that WO C0UTB6 Of legislation on silvor and the tariff may make him an available candidate. Home of tho Ohio polttiois.os of tho Republican faith who have been here during the last week have In common with ewrvboriv else been discussing tho question as to whether or not Mr. Blaine would withdraw. The nomination of Mr. Sherman at Columbus In January left some ill-feeling oa the part of the Foraker P'.-oplo to the administration, and It was generally supposed that a gr at and lnfcsresting natit between Forakor and Sherman for the rvmAKML delegation to Minneapolis would be Inevitable, with McKtnloy only secondarily In the race. Tho opinion lately expressed by tho Ohioans shows that the bitterness between tho fnotlons has been decreasing. Tho Foraker men, who havo been quietly organizing since th recent dcu atonal ccniess to control the Ohio delegation to Minneapolis, are badly broken up over the an iiTiun cement. Thoy are knocked out of tho light by the loss of ;i candidate. The Foraker following unquestionably ha.l a s th sir object the nomination of Blaine or anybody to teat Har JKUEMl.UI HUSK. rison, end the effect of the withdrawal at lhl3 timo may allw lho blltfir contest promised over tho''Wection of delegates. . : I'.laino's withdrawal is exciting politicians ull over tho country, and both Democrats and Republicans uro expressing themselves freely as to the outcome. As to Senator Allison, a Dcs Moines correspondent sends a telegram, s.-iying: " There Is no one -here who is In position to speak for Senator Allison, but it is known that when ho wa , in Iowa (luring the campaign he spoke In terms of high pruise of tho administration of President Harrison, and exposed himself as favoring his renominate un. Hiii friends in this city eay they thln.lt th&t there ii icaro.ly any question. tlit S0i.K AUl

son will give Harrison cordial support fir the nomination, and that Iowa will g'i to Minneapolis ready to vot tor bint for renominatlon."

A prominent Minnetsota Republici says: "It Is difficult, to foretell whettht. Bepublicansof the State will do under tho changed condition wrought by the publication of Mr. Blaine' 3 letter, but Mr. Blaine's withdrawal will probably odd quite a number to those who favor tho renominatlon of h e President. Judge G resham has always t-een W. Q. GRSHAlf. very favorably regarded by the Minnesota Republicans, and it would not he Ktirprising should a very largo proportion, if not a majority of them, transfer tlolr allegiance to the distinguished . jurist, now that Blaine la no -longer" possibility. " Henry C. Payne, Chairman of tho Wisconsin Republican State; CenteajrC jmmlttee, said tha'; if a new man ls"f o be nominated it may be Secretary Rusk. H nee it became generally understood ttat Blaiiw was to decline, Busk's name, . ho says, has been veiy prominently men- . tl ned in the East, and now with. II nine's possitive withdrawal tuany of Blaine's strongest supporters, he thinks, will' favor Rusk. Some of Senator Cullom's friends on lic-ing interviewed expressed themse of being confident that the Illinois Sen ator would receive tho solid backing of Ms State at Minneapolis, and would be the leading candidate before tho convention. One of the Senator's supporters offered to bet $500 against $200 that Henator Culloni would be nominated at Minneapolis and $250 more that he would win his bot. Senator McMillan, of Michigan, said: "General Alger Is now a candidate for the Republican nomination and will go Into the contest with the solid delegation from his own State, with support from many other States and with a stronger following than many people and better chance ot success than most people think for." It is -the unanimous opinion among Republicans at Indianapolis that the letter takes Blaine entirely out -of tbe question as a Presidential quantity and leaves tho President with a practically clear field for t ne party nomination.

Minor Medical Mention. Db. Hammokd reports that during tho past ten years seventy men have died suddenly from th strain of running after street cars. , Atlanta,, Ga., claims to have the most interesting natural curiosity in a man 122 years of age. Hiram Lester was 7 years old when tills country was t born and has a son 70 years of age. In a small village in Fran je a woman died in labor. There was no physician present, but a knowing priest performed; an operation by which hn brought a living child into the world. This exhibition of presence of mind and expertnees, resulting in the saving of one life was, however, contrary to man-made law. So the. priest had to be arrested and convicted for illegal practice and was fined fifteen francs. The States of this Union ace already loaded down with just such legit-lation, and tho oi:ly reason why it is not regarded aa a general nuisance Is b-ecause it is not as punctiliously enforced as in Franco. French physiciins report a curious and almost unexampled disorder in a" woman only 21 years of age. She looks as though she were 70. She is said to have "a decrepitude of the cutaneous system." In other respects she is doing quite well. The wrinkling of the skin and aging of her countenance began soon after she received a great fright, arid would therefor j seem to he due to a sort of paralysis oi nerve centers which control the nutrition ot the skin of the face. No treatment thus far tried has been of any service to improve her appearance, and her mental condition is suffering from worrlment over it. Mb. KENNAjf, wl o braved indescribable hardships of all sorts in his travels all over Russia, says: "The vilest stuff I ' ever tasted was a stew offered me by Prince Djordjadzi while I was his guest In the Caucasian Mountains. It was made from the feet of cattle, including the hoofs. The tatite and smell of the stable pervaded the dish." Mr. Kennan says that reindeer moss is very nutritious, but too hard of digestion for the humaa stomach. The Koraks feed it to tho reindeer, and after he has partly digested it they kill tho finimal and take it fot their own food. It tastes slimy and clayey, but it is heartily relished by those who like it. Tests of human endurance, which have rather more of sensational than practical and usef ul influence, continue to be made doubtless because some-bo-ay finds it possible to make something out of i. In London a tasting mutch was won by Mr. Jacques, who lived without food for fifty days, thus breaking the record. He lived on air j and eleven gallots of water. In De- 1 trtlt half a dozen men tried to go a week without sleep. Only one of them succeeded. Another went five days, und, half of thom three days. It is reported Unit they were ne t apparently harmed by the experiment:. In New York three me n did over 1,400 miles on bicycles in six days, the first covering 1.468 miles with only twelvo hours' sleep. Dr. Footo's Health Monthly. Genu t Though t Usluoky is the man whose bread Is buttered on both rides. Bewa.be of excessive concealment that provokes malicious guessing. To brood over the past Is to misspend the present, and to jeopardise the future. MAttKlAQB is a lottery, and young husbands frequently draw prizes in baby carriages. Vvlgar wealth is a repellaut thing, but it is entitled to the forbearance, at least of vulgar poverty. The question of the hour seems to be, Where will tha sockless Jerry Simpson put his salary as Congressman? If you wish to seald your husband, or wife, as the case may be, procure cold water and heat it before using it. Those who expect to read their title clear to the better land should be able to produce a record ot good deeds. Imagination and memory seem to conspire against some people by swapping functions at critical junctures. When a man istoolasy to walk around a mud-hole, he should not be commended for bravery in walking through it. When doctors disagree they do not forget to charge for the time they spend In the argument that pre codes disagreement. An Klrentaml Kemedr.
