Typhoid Fovor. Typhoid is now admitted by all sclen* tlata to be caused by a venom microbe that swarms by the million in the tissues Of the small intestines, producing fever, delirium, extreme prostration, putrifaction and death. The medical profession has earnestly sought a reliable antidote for this mortal plague and found none. Hence it is a bold, an almost startling claim, (a claim never before dared to be made for any remedy,) that Brazilian Balm, alone, will positively cure Typhoid
TYPHOID BACILLUS. Fever in any stage. This great discovery was the result of a woman’s faith. Airs. L. B. Bradway, of Wilmington, Del., believed the Balm would do almost anything. Hence she gave it in 6 drop doses, every three to five minutes, to a young lady in the last stage of Typhoid. Bhe had been given up by the doctor, who said she could not live half an hour. To the surprise of all she quickly revived and recovered. Since then it has been used by laymen, nurses and physicians with uniform success. How it cures was then a mystery; but it is now fully settled that it promptly destroys every Typhoid bacillus in the oyotem. It staunches the hemorrhage, tea'.? the whole alimentary track, and, ins ^ad of the slow, tedious convalescence, restores to health and strength with surprising rapidity. In short, it fills every condition of aperfect antidote forTyphoid. Treatment: GivelOdrops every li> minute while the fever rages, and once an hour when the fever is off, u:i i give nothing else. During conv i.e cance give 1! or 4 times a day. To prevent Typhoid give every hour. Painesvillc, O., druygists say nothing has been offered in that town for years which is so popular and gives such universal satisfaction as Brazilian Balm. Nearly 400 bottles have been sold there in the last two months.

There seems to be a misapprehension as to the republican birthday celebration on the 22nd inst., which was started bj - the Union Uepuklican club of Washington, and has been pushed along as a good thing by the national officials of the League of Republican clubs, to judge by publications in Washington and elsewhere.

STUDENTS’ NERVE.
With the advent of tomorrow known in the church calendar as Ash Wednesday, the season of Lent will begin, and fashionable society will array itself in sackcloth and for the nonce will abandon amusement and frivolity for mortification of the flesh and meditation and prayer. Whatever may be said of this practice as an ecclesiastical custom, it is a most wholesome one viewed from other standpoints. It teaches individuals the invaluable lesson of self-denial and self-con-trol, and enforces upon them the old truth that “life is real, life is earnest,” and has its duties as well as its privileges. In this modern, work-a-day world, with its mad rush for gain and eager search for pleasure it is well that a certain portion of the year is set apart for deeds of self-abnegation and for reflection. The spiritual, like the physiea! man, needs its period of
recuperation.
The St. Louis Globe Democrat pointedly and truthfully says: The opinion held in some quarters that the republican bosses are going to dictate who will be the candidate need not cause am - uneasines in the party. There is no certainty

Cut:
“I have neen thinking over that horrible Ft. Thomas murder. Two or thr -e medical students, you remember, killed Pearl Bryan, a young girl, and then to remove all chances of discovery, cut off her head and hid it. It was one of the most shocking crimes that ever came under my observation, and it no doubt sent a thrill of terror through the heart of every man and woman who read it. And yet, do you know that I am not altogether surprised at this thing? That is to say, I do not believe that the students realized at the time what a monstroi sly inhuman act. they were perpetrating. These medical students get used to this sort of thing and get to looking upon a human body pretty much as
