A Wise Young Woman.

Young Adolphus FitzwllUam, he loved a fair (MM maid, Hut to ask her to marry him he was afraid, Because of catarrh which she had very bad So much so that often the youth wasqulte glad To omit, at the parting, the kiss of the lover. The reason of this she set out to discover. "Catarrh makes me loathsome. It's fatal to love, o, darling Adolphus, by all that's above, 1 vow I'll not lose thee It something there Is To drive out catarrh and aweeten a kiss."

So this wise young lady began searching lor a cure, and good luck attended her. She found Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy at the drug store and felt convinced that a prep aration which the proprietors had such confidence in that they were willing to offer to pay $500 for a case they cannot cure, must be worth trying. She bought it. She tried it. It cured her. And when Adol phub kissed her at the altar last week, her kiss was as sweet and pure as roses in June.

Girls, a word of advice: If you want a lover to stay a (lover, you must get rid of catarrh. Do as this sensible girl did. and Ret the only sure remedy for this disgusting and dangerous disease—Dr. Sage's Ca tarrh Remedy.

fINASOES AND THE TAfilff.

An Intelligent Review of the Situation— The Threat to Smash the Tariff. To the Editor THR JOURNAL.

The Indianapolis News of August 10th had an editorial comment on the President's message that reads: "The majority of the people of Indiana approve the President's message from beginning to end, without any reservation whatever. There is not a word or a comma that they would have changed." Does not the News put this a little strong? DoeB it not show ignorance of the sentiments of a majority of Indianians on this question of the hour? As to Cleveland's position on the silver question, he may or he may not be right. The people are going to exercise but little patience with a Congress that will spend weeks, and perhaps months, in arguing the stale question of the parity of gold and silver. Wide spread suffering of the poor, and, financial distress to the rich, are to prevail if the opportunities are not opened up to the bread winners, and he cares but little whether the dollar is an honest one, worth a hundred cents, or a depreciated one, worth but seventy cents, so it keeps the wolf from the door.

He furthermore knows that there is not a single member of the present Congress, but knows that every particle of fiat added to our silver dollar depreciates its value just that much, and that the more fiat our basio money contains the less intrinsic, and the more cheat there is in it.

Now the silver question bears about the proportion to the troubles of the hour that a grain of sand does to the mighty sea shore. It seems to me that the President shows himself blind to the real trouble when he attributes it to the Sherman silver law, and then winds up by repeating the Chicago platform threat of 1892. He acts about as wise as would the man who would endeavor to extinguish the devouring flames of a burning building by casting on it kerosene, or the physician who would attempt to arrest strychnine convulsions by injecting strychnine into the circulation of his patient.

When the Democratic platform, adopted at Chicago in 1892, declared a protective tariff unconstitutional the business men of

thiB

country laughed

they believed that it was but the voioe of demagogues actuated by the ghoBt of 1832. In this they were mistaken. The majority of the labor organizations were deceived into voting for this delusion. From the very moment that the result of the election was known the business men of this country began to prepare for the orisis, and to withdraw their oapital, as far as possible, from business, began to prepare for a" general "shut down." Well did they know that American manufactures woald be compelled to adopt the European schedula of labor prices, if they run unprotected. They also knew that this could not be done without dissatisfaction, and perhaps violenoe. The American idea of labor is that physical toil is honorable in order that it be honorable it must be remunerative, must furnish means to make the bread winner independent and reasonably educated so that he becomes a good sitizen. The non-protective idea is Europeon, is aristocratic, is that physical toil is menial. The Edinburg Review. a few years ago, declared, "of all derangements that can well take place in a civilized community, one of the most embarrassing and discreditable would be that which arises from the working classes becoming more intelligent than their employers." The Southern Democracy fully misunderstood this when they made it an offense to teach one of their slaves to read. Now the transaction from this protective or Republican idea of labor to the non-proteo-tive or European idea of labor is a serious and dangerous experiment. Now there is not a business man in America that has sense enough to run successfully a first clasB peanut stand but who knows to remove American protection means to adopt the European labor schedule to do this is to retrograde in the elevation of the laboring classes back to the pre-Republican times. This means beggary, want and equal id poverty to the hundreds of thousands of bread winners in the United States.

If the President had stopped in his message with his silver argument, and closed with a proclamation to the American people, declaring that our Republican or American system of protection would not be disturbed for the ensuing four years, the voioe of gladness and joy would be going up from every part of the land, instead of the anxious cry, "what shall we do?" CITIZEN.

Parkersburg, Aug 14.

A Dry Day,

Sunday was a day of misery and lamentation for the thirsty man. He couldn't get a drink. The police had notified all the saloon keepers to keep closed and they did so. Liquor was mighty scarce article and the man with bloodshot eyes and his tongue out was pretty numerous. Late at night Marshal Brothers and Officer Gill took a buggy and made a tour of the suburban joints. They surprised Osoar Waite and a choice coterie of soft eyed customers in the iron bridge saloon. Oscar was promptly pinohed and locked up in jail. The police had been after his scalp for some time and now that they have him intend to make him sweat gore.

Dutch Belted Cattle-

Secretary Morgan, of the Montgomery Agricultural Association, has received a letter from H. B. Richards & Co., of Easton, Penn., making inquiry about entering a herd of Dutch Belted Cattle to our fair. They will have their herd at the stock show of the World's Fair and desire to enter here. The cattle are unique and will prove a great attraction. The Secretary wrote assur ing them that their cattle should stand on an equal footing with Holstein and other dairy cattle.

She Wants a Divorce.

A peculiarly sad divorce suit was filed Monday in the circuit oourt, May H. Grimes being the plaintiff and John T. Grimes the defendant. It was back in 1885 when this couple were married and their life since that date has been anything but a happy one. May Holloway was a decidedly pretty young girl and had numerous admirers, some of whom were decidedly worthy men. Obeying the first mistaken impulse of an undis ciplined heart, however, she married a man in no wise suited to her. We are told, that "there is no disparity in marriage like unsuitability of mind and purpose." It proved so in this case. The tastes of Grimes were not at all the taBtes of Mrs. Grimes. Grimes waB a drunkard and his home life was in accordance with his habits. There .was no domestic sympathy and the discord which naturally usurped its place led to many things of an unpleasant, unprofitable and unsavory character, involving not only ths husband but the wife aa well. She clung to him until Monday, however, when she took her four year old daughter Hazel and went to her mother's home. The complaint charges drunkenness, abusive language and conduct and failure to provide.

Grimes has repeatedly threatened to steal little Hazel from her mother in case she sued for a divorce so the court has issued, at the request of Mrs. Grimes, a temporary restraining order upon him. Both parties to the suit are well connected and the whole affair is a decidedly sad one. Marriage is usually a failure, however, when no careful diagnosis of existing circumstances and the future's promise has been made by the contracting parties.

Row the Panic was stopped. Horace McPhee, who is here as Riverside county commissioner, says there was no flurry whatever about the Bank of Elsinore. And then McPhee told a story which is particularly pat at these times.

He said there was a run on a bank in an iron mill town, and the depositors were being paid in silver dollars. The excitement increased, and the run became a fast one. The cashier was a yoang Irishman, and thejwork put upon him was more than he liked. He resolved to stop it. He sent the janitor with a bushel of siver dollars into a rear room where there was a stove, with instructions to "heat them silver dollars redhot." They were heated, and in that condition he handed them out with a ladle. The depositors first grabbed the coin, then kicked. "But you'll have to take them that way," said the cashier. "We are turning them out as fast as we can melt and mold them, and if you won't wait till they cool you'll have to take them hot."

That settled it. The run was stopped. McPhee says the story is true, but denies that he was the Irish cashier.—San Diego Sun.

Death of a Pioneer.

On Saturday evening about six o'clock Mrs. Wm. Chestnut, aged 69 years, died at her home near Wingate, Her death was quite unexpected, her illness not being considered serious until but about three hours prior to her death. The funeral occurred Monday.

Mrs. Chestnut was the

laBt

child of

Christian Bever, who settled at Wingate in October, 1829, coming from Ohio. He laid out the town of Wingate and was the first settler in that community. Mrs. CheBtnut was born in Ohio in March, 1824, but resided in this county from 1829 until the time of her death. Her two sisters and brother, Mrs. George King, Mrs. Samuel Austin and Mathias Bever, died before her. She was married in 1844 and her husband still survives her. She leaves three children, Thomas and Melville Chestnut and Mrs. John Munns, of Waynetown. Aunt Kittie, as she was known, was a most lovable old lady and had been a life long member of the Methodist church. She dies mourned by the entire community where she lived and labored for so many years.

A Horse with .Hydrophobia, Ephraim McMurrav, who resides near the Andrew Clemens farm was a caller at THE JOURNAL office Tuesday and gave the particulars of the death of one of his horses by hydrophobia. The animal was bitten by a mad dog twentysix days before its death which occurred Saturday night. It was bitten on the nose but exhibited no eigne of the rabies when Btabled Friday night. On Saturday morning when Mr. McMurray went to the stable, however, he found the horse standing up to its belly in a large hole he had pawed in the earth of the stall. The skin and flesh had been rubbed from its nose to its eyes which were staring and bloodshot. Its hair stood upright upon its back and ita general appearance was truly horrifying. Occasionally it gave went to along sdbbing shriek of agony almost human in tone. It would Btand still shivering for a few minutes, and then suddenly seized wiih a paroxysm would burv its teeth in the timbers of the slall and tear off fragments as large aB pieces of Btove wood. It flew at all corners to the barn barn bristling with insane rage and frothing frightfully. '1 he poor animal was killed Saturday evening. Mr. Clemens also has a horse bitten at the

time by the dog. It has as yet manifested no signs of hydrophobia.

All for a Barley Corn.

LaFontaine, in one of his fables, tells of a barnyard fowl that scratched up a gem, while scratching for corn. Not knowing its value, he gave it to a stone cutter for a barley corn. Thus do many persons throw away the priceless pearl of health. A "trifling" cough is neglected, then comes consumption, then death. Stay the cough, or look out for a coffin. Dr. Pierce's Go'den Medical Discovery will cure catarrh in the head, bronchial or throat affeclions, or lung scrofula (commonly known as the consumption of the lungs). If taken in time, and given a fair trial, it will cure, or the money paid for it will be refunded. It is the only guaranteed cure.
