A SOS'S TRIBUTE

It becomes the painful duty of the editor of THE JOUBSAL to announce the death of his venerable father, Hugh B. McCain, which ocourred at Weetfield, Hamilton oounty, last Friday night, February 17, at the advanoed age of 80 years and 19 days. The wife of his youth with whom he had walked for nearly fifty-aix years, and five of their nine children still survive. All bat one daughter, living in Kansas, were at his bedside when he passed through

gates to that "undiscoveied country." For more than sixty years he had been a church communicant and during all that time he had en deavored to follow in the footsteps of his Master. Although not free from the errors subject to humanity he fought the good fight and kept the faith. When the summons oame, dread fal to all bnt him, serenely he laid down the burden of life and pRssed through the shadow of the valley.' With a calm confidence in that sure reward that awaited him, he folded up the book of life and bound it with the golden cliisj of faith in a glorious immortality. Time speeds us each with swift and tireless flight toward the land of shadows and forgpttulness. Men seldom think of the great event of death until the shadows fall across their own pathway, hiding from their eyes the faces of loved ones whose smile was the sunlight of their existence. Whatever may be said or thought of us when life's transient day ig o'er, may it be our lot, as it was his of whom we now write, to leave behind the heritage of a good name, the legacy of a life well spent. To his chil dren and his friends he is no more. Nothing is left but his memory and his example. Mav they cherish the one and emulate the other.

PENSION "SECTIONALISM.'' In the debate on the pension bill, says the New York Press, Representative Pickler, of South Dakota, called the attention of the Southern soldier hater, who were denouncing the pension laws to a few figures which rather surprised those individuals. Soldier haters, both Southern and Northern, have been in the habit of proclaiming loudly that pension legislation is earnestly seetional and that the money disbursed in pension payments was expended almost altogether in the North. From the report of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue Mr, Pickler obtained the respective amounts of internal revenue, the only form of taxation paid directly to the national government derived from the several States. He compared these with the amounts of pensions which go to the various States. Texas paid §306,375 cf internal taxes into the federal Treasury during the past fiscal year and drew out in pensions S905,230. Illinois, on the other hand, a Northern State, paid $36,795,338 of the internal tax and drew out only 89,343,996 in the form of pen sions to her citizeuB. South Carolina, the implacable foe of Union veterans, paid only, $71,812 of the tax and drew in pensions $171,126, while New York paid $17,670,978 and received only $11 762,390. Tennessee contributed 81,278,862 and received $2,434,508 Nebraska and the two Dakotas paid $4,898,588 and received $3,391,059. Alabama's tax was $106,771. Her pension receipts wore $400,729. Arkansas contributed $95,718.86 to the internal revenue, and received $1,470,903.77 in pension payments. West Virginia paid $807,588.36 in internal revenue taxes and received $2,158,703.12 in pensions. Louisiana] and Mississippi paid together $734,832.20 and received $847, 552.45 Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia paid $3,288,873.77 in taxes and received $4,220, 890.13 in pensions. It I thus appears that the Southern States profit by whatever of sectionalism there is in the pension laws. If the Northern

States receive more in the aggregate they also bear more than their share of the burden. In view of these facte, it is not only unpatriotic, but supremely impudent, in Southern Democrats to assail the North for paying uioney out of I its own pocket to keep the heroes who preserved the Union from poverty and the almshouse.

IF THE ladies of Crawfordsville really do not want to wear the frightful hoopskirt, as all ladies protest they do not, they should speak out in a public way against it and thus encourage each other to stand together. Every organization of women, such as the Athenian, the Musical Ameteurs, the Canterbury Club, the Woman's Relief Coras, Acorn Band, Mothers' Club, The Art Club, The Dorcas Society, and all missionary societies should adopt resolutions con demning the unsightly, unhealthful crinoline, and requesting our merchants not to offer them for sale. If the women are in earnest let them be practical.

THE House yesterday passed the Senate bill to restore to the Governor the

power to appoint the trustees of the benevolent, penal and reformatory institutions. This was the rock that split the Democracy in twain. Whether or .not the different faotions will -'get together" remains to be seen. It is presumed, however, that they will.. A

Democratic fight has often been compared to a cat fight, which generally results in more oats. If, however, the fight will result in giving to the State a fair apportionment bill it will have it« compensations.

THE Toledo Blade says that Gen. Lew Wallace is nothing if not picturesque. He says the appointment of Gresham is "like putting live coals and boiling oil on the bald head of the Democratic party."

THE House has engrossed the bill providing for the establishment of a Sti.te Soldiers' Home in Tippecanoe county. The amount of the appropriation agreed upon is 855,000. This action is to be commended.

THE bill to cut do.vn the number of the I judicial circuits and to gerrymander the remainder is as dead ae a door nail and the oircnits will remain ns they are now constituted.

THE recent rise in pork prompts the Sioux City, Iowa, Jnurnal to say that "manv a hog is now worth more than the acre of ground on which bo was raised."

THE Minnesota legislature has what it deems a solution of the silver problem. It is to put a dollars's worth of silver in the standard dollar. Well, why not?

The Winners.

Some paddle their canoes along upon life's troubled sea In a happy, careless, don't-care way, with voices full of glee. With many a splash and many a dash they row themselves along. But their boats don't make mnch headway, for their strokes are never strong.

There are others still who row along the course from day to day Who never splash and never dash and haven't much to say. Yon never hear them coming, but they win the race because They save their wind for business and pnll with muftled oars. —Frank Marlon.

CURIOUS CULLINGS.

A recent court decision in England gives a man a right to sue the preacher when he makes the man's wife go to church Instead of staying at home and cooking his dinner.

The women of Zurich, Switzerland, have seoured the suppression of the Thierbuoh, a publication revealing their ages, occupations, descendants, etc. It was issned annually and was more frequently consulted at cafes and other public resorts than the city directory.

CHRONIC RHEUMATISM. Chronic Rheumatism is peculiar chronic rheumatic inflammation affecting most frequently the joint®, but which may occur in th« fibrous, synovial, muscular, or in fact, any tissue or organ of the body. Chronic Rheumatism is very generally th« result of neglected or maltreated acute rheumatism, on active inflammatory fever being developed, and the local rheumatic inflammation being of a passive or chronic character.

Wli»n chronic rheumatism is cot a consequence of the acute diaeos es, it arises from the same causes, and is developed in the same manner as the acute variety, only there is frequently a distinct tenderness of the spine where the nerves come off which supply the fiffecfced pari The neuralgic irritation which is set up is generally not so violent, and does not so readily develop the rheumatic inflammation, and when the inflammation does arise, it is of a slow chronic or passive nature.

.SYMPTOMS

At first there may be a dull, heavy feeling in the heart, or alou the spine, with Blight drowsiness, or lassitude, and a general feeling of coldness and chilliness. Sooner or later, slight febrile excitement may take place, with slight increase in the frequency of the pulse more or less thirst a dry skin, and perhaps scanty highcolored urine. Soon the dull, leavy feeling in the head or along the spine, appears to be concen trated at some particular point ii the brain or along the spine, which point, if it be in the spirit becomes more or less tender, and and immediately the darting neuralgic pains are felt iu the limbs or parts, which irritated part in supplied with nervea.,

After the neuralgic pain lian continued for a longer or a shorter period, the patient being more or less uneasy, especially at night a slight swelling, tenderness, aud perhaps redness appear in the joints, limbs or parts in which the neurelgio had been set up, and this, if neglected, may continue for days, weeks months, or even years, being increased or lessened according to the exposure or imprudence of the patient, and also modified more or less by th dampness of the electrical state of th® atmosphere. It may contiuu confined to some particular part for & long time, with only a slight swelling and lameness of the part, or it sometimes assumes an erratic character, passing from one part of the system to another, and attended with much pain, and but little tenderness or swelling. 1 have noticed iu cases where rheumatism has remained stationary for along time, there id most generally a decided irritation and often tenderness at the point of the spine supplying nerve3 to the affected part-s but in the erratic cases I have usually detected only a transient irritation, with slight pain, but little tenderness of the spine, to restrain the local inflammation in one part, so that it shifts, as the point of the greatest irritability in the cerebro-spinal system passes from one point to another.

I have given you the symtouis of this dread disease as I have found them to be, which is the result of close observation in the treatment of hundreds of these cases. have seen very many persons who were sufferers from chronic rhenrn atism, who had been treated by the nse of poison, acidf, and a long list of the medicines usually given by the ©Id School of doc tors, but have never seen one cure performed by these medicines. On the other hand I must truthfully say that the real Indian mode of treatment iu these cases has never known to fail.

O! woman ,lovely woman, why suffer so, Why bear such pain and anguish, agony of woe? Wliy don't you seek the remody—the one that's all tho go? "All the so," because it makes tho pains go. As an invigorating, restorative tonic, soothing cordial ami bracing nervine, for debilitated and feeble women generally, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has no equal. It improves digestion, invigorates the system, enriches the b'ocd. dispels aches and pains, produces refreshing sleep, dispels melancholy and nervousness, and builds up both flesh aud strength of those reduced below a healthy standard. Don't be put off with some worthless compound, easily, but dishonestly, recommended to be "just as good," that tho dealer may make more profit. ''Favorite Prcrcripuon'' is incomparable-
