Tin: .M .Vl.M KT HltlH V1)K. Co where you will in all this land, von will timl the members of the Maimed l'.rig-ade. The blue has faded from their dress and the brass letters have dropped from their caps, but there is no mistaking- that they have been soldiers. They have no in 1 to refer to muster rolls oi to exhibit parchments to j.rove tliey wi_.-fc in the army. One hundred thousand strong is the Maimed Urigade! They march in our streets, not with the precision as of yore, but as undaunted still, lirave men! Their limbs are scattered over a dozen States. They moulder and whiten on the same fields with the bodies of the patriot slain—and the liand» of the dead may grasp the dead hand- of the living', though the latter be a thousand miles from the throbbing hearts that once warmed them with their blood. A hundred thousand men who have laid some one of their limbs upon their country's altar as sacriiices to Liberty still are numbered among the living-. Were they to pass through this city in reg-iments, for a whole day from any ^iven point could our eyes rest upon the Maimed ltrigade. A thousand tattered battle-

Hags would wave above them, held by one-armed heroes, and many thousand footless legs would be keeping step to the music of the Union. Let us not forget the one-armed and one-legged soldiers, who form an army eight times as large as the old standing army of the United States, and four times as large as the present. They need not be gathered together and passed in sorrow before the people in whose behalf they have suffered and suffer still, to assert the fact of their being. The government has recognized them, and given them, as far as they have made application, pensions and artificial limbs. Hut let the people be careful that they do no forget them. The battle these'poor fellows are now fight ing is harder to win and fraught with more danger than many battles of the rebellion. Let us recall the words of the immortal Lincoln: "With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as Uod gives us to see the -right, let us finish the work we are in. to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and orphans.

THE 111.1'E A.ND THE OllAY. It is largely the custom, all over the country to decorate with flowers alike ttie graves of the Blue and the dray.

We may not understand this offering in its fullest meaning. It is not alone to perpetuate the" memory of the gal lant dead, for by their heroic deeds and lives they are imperishablv embalmed in our memory. The star in their crown of glory will never set. When they went forth, we bade them liod-.speed. When they died we were consoled that they die.d as patriots We visit their graves and strew flowers as offerings to the memory of patriots, not as mourning for our friends. It is to keepalivetlie patriot ism among the living, also, for they the dead, "rest from their labors." If they died as patriots, their foes died traitors, or as their pliant tools. These fell for freedom: they to perpetuate oppression. We honor these: how can we honor them? We did not fight them in the spirit of hate, but in the love of country. Deceived tliey may have been, but traitors, nevertheless.

Forgive them as erring brothers, but act. no lie by building floral monu month to their ignominy. Pass their graves in silence, speak no bitter words, leave them to their Maker but mock not the patriot dead, lest they might have died in vain, "l'was a fra ternal strife: we bid it all begone: bury it in the shadow of tile but too recent years. Yet, as we visit with bleeding hearts the green mounds built "In the siormof the years that are railing," We cannot give more than the charity of silence for those who made them bleed.

Coal Creek, her next door neighbor, had to build a school house, too, but got her money at 12 per cent. Coal Creek' bonds are for SS,000 and one of them for 81.000 is payable every year.

WEIGHING A Lh/fc TROUT.

Deceptive AppeurRnci', in Sl*i\ of the Fish at I-ar^o In the Water. A few days ago a party of anglers visited the hatching house of the state fish commission at 0ld Spring Harbor. Long Island, and were estimating the weight of the larger trout which were swimming at their feet, says the New York Sun. One very large speeimen attracted their attention, and a veteran angler said: "That feliow will weigh six pounds." liet you a ei rar that it won't go over four." said another. "I'll split the difference with each of you and take both figures that the fish will weigh over and under six pounds," said a third.

Just then the superintendent, Mr. Fred Mather, came out of the building, and at onee they appealed to him In chorus: "Major, how much will that fish weigh?" "About eight pounds," was the reply. "But I see you look incredulous. We'll find his weight precisely. 'Peter."'said the superintendent to one of his men, "get

hands, the deep seine, a wash-

tub and the scales. (let out the big trout and weigh it." Within ten minutes the net brought up a mess of great trout, which were allowed to escape, all except the big one. The -washtub, two feet in diameter, was sunk under it, then lifted, and the party saw within it a magnificent brown trout that could not extend its tail within the limits of its confinement, whose breadth and depth were surprising. The angler who had bet on six pounds wanted to make it twelve, and the four-pound man became interested In the flock of wood ducks and teal near by, which are one of the sights of the place. "A fish In the water," said Maj. Mather, "never looks as large as when out of it. The depth is greatly foreshortened, and even the length and breadth do not seem to show their full extent. Boys, weigh the tub."

A pole over the slioulders of two men Id the scales, and when they straightened up and tho tub with its contents cleared the ground, the scale indicated ninety-two pounds. The fish was then carefully lifted out and sent swimming away, and the tub and water pulled the scales at eighty-three pounds, leaving nine pounds as the weight of the trout.

That fish," said the major, "is tho common brook trout of Europe. I imported tile first eggs after taking the iish with the fly in the 'Black Forest' iu Germany, and it is destined t.c be a favorite when better known."

THIRTY MILLIONS.

Spernlnt.on Regarding the Population of t.omlnn IIulf Century Hence. The London county council has been studying into the growth of that eity, whose population seems to be decreasing, because the people are moving into the suburbs. The investigation has brought out some remarkable figures, savs the Westminster Budget. If we do nut add any more to the population than the amount per decade that has been added since 1£81 it seems that we should have a population in 1041 of close upon 10,000,000. If we allow for a growth at the rate of the natural increase of births over deaths there will be nearly 11,000,000 in London in that year. If we reckon that London will ,'rew at the. average rate of the last three decades we shall bo over 14,000,000, but if inner London and outer Lonlon go on together growingat the rate they have been growing "for the last three tens of years we are to expect a

London population in 1041 of a trifle over 17,500,000. If look at the matter iu another way and ask what population greater Loudon will contain when it has attained throughout the mean density of well-known areas, we get the following appalling calculation:

If greater London were only peopled as densely as Ilampstead, it would contain a population of 13,000,000.

If it were peopled on an average as densely as Fulham is now, the population would be '20,000,000.

If it were peopled at the rate of St. George's, Hanover square, the total would rise to 30,000,000.

Whitechapel is three times as densely peopled as St. George's itsel f. The moral is obvious.

Diseases of the Uterus ami ovarian troubles are most uuiversal you can see their ravages in pale faces it is indicated by halting steps, dizziness, faintness, irritability, melancholy, extreme lassitude, nervousness, sleep-less-toss, and disturbances of the stomach.

You will hear your friends speak of tho dreadful "backache," the crushing sense of "Waring down."

Lydia £'. Pink-ham's

The great

cause of woman's misery is in her womb. Lydia E.

Wlmt Will lio Itl

Medical writers claim that the successful remedy for nasal catarrh must be non-irritating, easy of application, and one that will reach the remote sores and ulcerated surfaces. The history of efforts to treat catarrh is proof positive that only one remedy has completely inet these condition, and that is Ely's Cream llalm. This safe and pleasant remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing else has ever done, and both physicians and patients freely concede this fact. Our druggists keep it.
