A correspondent who visited the scene of the terrible Diamond mine disaster, near Braidwood, 111., telegraphed as follows on the 16th inst: “Since the sad mishap at the Diamond mine, on the 10th of February, resulting in the death of seventyfive men, the weather has been favorable and the prairie has dried as rapidly as could be expected. Unfortunately, no ditch or provision has been made to carry off the water pumped from the mine, hence the want of success. Only six inches have been made since Sunday night. One conjecture is that there is underground water. This is founded upon the coldness and on the smell of the water taken from the shaft Another idea is, and it appears to be the most reasonable, that as the water taken from the shaft is allowed to spread itself over the prairie it finds its way back into the mine.” The contractors for the 200 miles of the Northern Pacific railroad remaining to be constructed promise that the gap will be closed before the Ist of September next.

In several instances the intention of the framers of the bill has been defeated by the 'transposition of a conjunction or a punctuation mark, and the probability is the Treasury Department, instead of being relieved in the matter of construction of the law, ■will have little time for any other business than explaining the purport of the act of 1883. A Judge Lilley, an aged Washington lawyer, called upon Stephen W. Dorsey, at ?the latter’s residence in Washington, a few •night® ago, and in the course of a conversation about the star-route trial Lilley made some remark that greatly enraged Dorsey who struck his guest from the chair in which he was sitting, and then jumped upon ■and kicked him, inflicting serious injuries The Supreme Court of the United States has rendered a decision affirming the validity of the Chicago city ordinances, which provide tor the closing of bridges over tbs OMpago river qerWn hours

Brady, ex-Assistant Postmaster General, was placed on the witness stand and testified in his own behalf. He denied that he was a conspirator, and affirmed that James, MacVeagh, Walsh and Berdell were perjurers. He had virtually become acquainted with Dorsey since this prosecution was inaugurated, never plotted with him, save touching certain political affairs, and conducted his department in the postoffice for the welfare of the country and the good of the mail service.

The New Jersey Senate has passed a bill forbidding the sale of cigarettes or tobacco in any form to minora The result of the late election for county officers in Falls county, Tex, was decided by the votes of seventeen naturalized Ohinamen, and now the defeated candidates are contesting the election upon the ground that a State law passed in 1875 limited the issuance of naturalization papers to white foreigners, and, it is claimed, disfranchised Chinamen who had already taken out naturalization papers. A high-license act has been adopted by both houses of the Missouri Legislature The Pennsylvania House of Representatives has passed a bill to prevent delay or discrimination by railroad or transportation companies. A bill prescribing the whipping-post as the penalty for wife-beating has passed the Illinois House of Representatives.

One of the jurors who tried Dukes at Uniontown, Pa, for the murder of Dr. Nutt, was assaulted in the streets of Belle Vernon by persons who regard the verdict of acquittal as infamous, and so severely beaten that his life is despaired of. The proffered evidence of James Mullett, one of the Dublin conspirators, will not be accepted by the Government The East Indian Government, in order to put the wheat-growers of that country more nearly upon an equality with the agriculturists of the United States in competing for the grain trade of Great Britain, is taking measures to secure a liberal reduction in the charges for transportation by rail ! Bishop Keener, of the Methodist Episcopal church South, gave expression, at the meeting of the Baltimore Conference at Charlestown, W. Va, to the fear that the clergy of his denomination are leaning too much to bookishness, and that wealth is exerting a ruinous influence upon the church. Owing to a lack of money to carry on the work of the signal service as at present arranged, the Chief Signal Officer has ordered the discontinuance of thirty-three “cautionary-display stations” on the lakes and three on the Atlantic coast, beside other work of the bureau. The annual review of pork-packing in Chicago shows a small increase for the winter season (from Nov. 1 to Feb. 28) as compared with the preceding season, and a falling off for the entire year ending Feb. 28, 1883, of 850,000 head in the number of hogs packed.

THE FAMILY DOCTOE.

Db. Labatin, who had a large experience with soldiers during the TurcoRusian war, recommends nitric acid as an application in chilblains. Equal parts of dilute nitric acid and aqua menth. pip. are penciled on the toes, at first daily, then twice a day. After three or four days a brownish scurf is formed, which is thrown off.— New York Medical Record. A distinguished physician, who had spent much time at quarantine, said that a person whose head was thoroughly washed every day rarely took contagious diseases; but where the hair was allowed to become dirty and matted, it was hardly possible to escape infection. Many persons find speedy relief for nervous headache by washing the hair thorougly in weak soda-water. I have known severe cases almost wholly curod in ten minutes by this simple remedy. A friend finds it the greatest relief in cases of “rare cold,” the cold symptoms entirely leaving the eyes and nose after one thorough washing ofthe hair. The head should be thorougnly dried afterward, and not exposed to draughts of air for a little while.—Circular.

What an Egg Will Do.—For burns and scalds nothing is more soothing than the white of au egg, which may be poured over the wound. It is softer as a varnish for a burn than collodion, and being always at hand can be applied immediately. It is also more cooling than the sweet oil and cotton which was formerly supposed to be the surest application to allay the smarting pain. It is the contact with the air which gives the extreme discomfort experienced from the ordinary accident of this kind, and anything which excludes the air and prevents inflammation is the thing to be at once applied. The egg is considered one of the best of remedies for dysentery. Beaten up slightly, with or without sugar, and swallowed at a gulp, it tends, by its emollient qualities, to lessen the inflammation of the stomach and intestine, and, by forming a transient coating on those organs, to enable nature to resume her healthful sway over a diseased body. Two, or at most three, eggs per day would be all that is required in ordinary cases; and since egg is not merely medicine but food as well, the lighter the diet otherwise and the quieter the patient is kept the more certain and rapid is the recovery.

Coffee and Digestion.—lt is not only true that we as a nation, drink too much, especially at our meals, as a meins of swallowing rapidly, impairing the digestive juices, but -that we do not always select the best drinks. We are far oftener controlled by a vitiated taste, than by judgment and conscience, while the human body is composed, in a great measure, of water, it is manifest that this pure fluid, distilled by the great Creator, in such lavish profusion, is the natural drink for both man and beast. Aside from the use and excessive use of the spices and salt, we should need but little drink, so far as artificial thirst is concerned, the natural demand being connected with the necessary exhaustion of the fluids of the body. As it now is, we seem to demand artificial drinks, among the most harmful of which is coffee. Neither tea nor coffee really afford any nourishment, as they are prepared, though they contain a little, while the cocoa is more nutritious than beefsteak, a slight objection to which, relatively, is the fact that it is an astringent, tending to induce constipation. Of coffee, Prof. Schurtz, of Berlin, Prussia, as a result of his experiments on digestion, says: “Of all fluids, the action of coffee is the worst, for the carbonization of a portion of its oil in the process of roasting not only renders it wholly indigestible, but also other food taken With it. The stimulating properties of the coffee so far increase the perisaltic action of the stomach that its contents are expelled before digestion is completed, which has led many to suppose that coffee aids digestion; when the fact is that it. greatly obstructs it, and causes the food to enter the bowels imperfectly digested, and is likely to produce irritation in those parts.” These views are corroborated by the observations of Dr. Beaumont, who enjoyed the best possible advantages for a thorough investigation.

One Man Distributes 23,000 Bibles.

Nathan Goff, Esq., of Clarksburg, W. Va., an uncle of the Hon. Nathan Goff, Congressman-elect from that State, has for sixty years, notwithstanding his numerous and engrossing business engagements, been a volunteer distributor of the Scriptures. He thui concludes a letter to the American Bible Society: “During the war I continued the distribution throughout Harrison county, and also gave a great many Bibles and Testaments to soldiers in the Union army. From my earliest connection with the cause, whenever I have sent to the Parent Society I have met with prompt and generous answers to my requests. After the war I began to supply the freedmen. At one time the society sent me a donation of seventyfive Bibles for that purpose. It is understood all through this country that I keep on hand all kinds of Bibles and Testaments for sale and for gratuitous distribution to the poor, so there is hardly a day passes that I do not distribute from one to twenty. As near as I can calculate, I have distributed between 23,000 and 24,000 volumes.”

Marrying Students.

Sometimes acquaintanceship is formed between pupils which results in marriage, and such marriages as have been the outcome of social intercourse here have been, from what I can learn, of a particularly happy character. A number of the women have married professors and are now pursuing post-grad-uate courses. “He who educates a woman, educates a generation.” Quite a number of the male students take their meals in Sage College, and the students of both sexes sit at the same tables. In many instances the men and women are brothers and sisters, cousins, or oldtime acquaintances, and the protecting influence of these relationships can readily be appreciated. The best manners prevail at the tables, and there is no mistaking the refining effect resulting from the co-eating arrangements.— Ithaca (N. Y.) Cor. Philadelphia Press.

The Treatment of Bulbs.

An ounce of nitrate of soda dissolved in four gallons of water is said to be a quick and good stimulant for bulbs, to be applied twice a week after the pots are filled with roots and the flower spikes are fairly visible. A large handful of soot, or about a pint, tied up in a piece of old canvas and immersed in the same quantity of water for a day or two will give you a safe and excellent stimulant; also good and safe is a quarter of a pound of fresh cow-dung mixed in a large garden pot of water and used as required. Any of these stimulants will do good, as the whole of them applied alternately will benefit bulbs that need more sustenance than the soil affords.

Novels and Their Plots.

Admitting the general principle that a novel should have a plot, and be properly wound up at the conclusion, we do not see why a few novels in a generation may not approach more closely the actual life, in which all love affairs do not result either in death or marriage. It is pretty obvious that Thackeray was bored with the necessity of constructing a plot; he calmly shows his read-

era how he had meant to hangCoLAltimont, and then let him off; and he is obviously indifferent as to “what became of them all” when his characters have passed off the stage. As t_> the winding up of his stories, Thackeray knotted the threads anyhow, introducing two concealed wills with the greatest assurance (in “Philip” and “The Newcombs”), and throwing in a bigamy when convenient. Moliere used to be accused of the same indifference. These men knew life so well that the rules of their art were sometimes irksome to them. Still, an art has its rules; the public of 3,000 years ago probably blamed Homer for leaving the “Iliad” at a loose end with the bunal of Hector, the tamer of horses. A proper conclusion of a novel is demanded by readers and by the laws of the game. No one would go on reading novels if all the characters were to be left adrift, as Mr. James sometimes leaves them, and as Thackeray obviously would have liked to leave them.—London Saturday Review. _

Mamma—“Why are you always beating your doll? That isn’t nice.” Elsa —“Yes it is. I must beat the doll, because I don’t want papa to tell me, as he always tell you, that I am spoiling my child.”

A lady taking tea at a small company, being very fond of hot rolls, was asked to have another. “Really, I cannot,” she modestly replied: “I don’t known-'how many I have eaten already.” “I do,” unexpectedly cried a juvenile upstart, whose mother had allowed him a seat at the table. “You’ve eaten eight; I’ve been countin’ I” At a restaurant a steady customer orders two soft-boiled eggs.

It never rains but it pours. A Newport visitor, after a long struggle, managed to get a foothold in society, «and all of a sudden found that she had been invited to nine dinner-parties, all on the same evening. Utterly unable to decide which to accept, she sat down and had a good cry over it, and that made her eyes and nose so red that she was ashamed to go to any. She was asked what she thought of one of her neighbors of the name of Jones, and with a know-ing look replied: “Why, I don’t like to say anything about my neighbors, but as to Mr. Jones, sometimes I think, and then again I don't know, but after all, I rather guess he’ll turn out to be a good deal such a sort of a man as I take him to be. — San Francisco News-Letter. A German banker, for his services to his Governmant in arrrnging a loan, is created a Baron, and prepares to take a walk abroad, accompanied by his son and heir. According to custom, the young man respectfully takes his place on his sire’s left. “You may walk on the right side,” says the new Baron ceremoniously; “you have one titled ancestor more than I.” And, as his heir seemed surprised at this statement, he adds majestically, “I am that titled ancestor, sir!”

A musical man, accompanied by a hand-organ and a child, has been giving street performances for the past week on the streets of Austin. After he had twisted one of the Beethoven, soul-stir-ring symphonies out of the instrument of torture, the artist sent- the child among the crowd. A legislator, who had just voted on the fixing of the per diem of the members, disgorged a nickel. “I vants anoder nickel,” lisped the child. “What for?” “Dot nickel you put in vas for de moosic, but mine fodder ish a professional peggar, pesides.”— T x is Siftings.

Canine Intelligence.

I have two setter dogs, says Mr. E. H. Eldridge, of Newton, Mass. One morning they were both missing. After having been gone the greatest part of the day Grouse returned home, pretty well tired out, but was able to jump around my coachman, looking up into his face, barking and running ahead, as if he would say, “Do follow me.” So he followed Grouse far into the woods. At last they came to a stone wall. Grouse jumped over and he followed 1 and there they found poor Scott, caught in a trap by one of his fore feet, crying most pitifully. When extricated his foot was found to be very much swollen, but fortunately no bone was broken. If it had not been for faithful Grouse he never would have seen his home again. I need not say that Grouse jumped around with delight to see his friend again free.

The Work of the Butcher Bird.

While Dr. J. T. Metcalfe was out on one of his hunts in the country, he came across a sparrow which had been decapitated and transfixed on a thorn. It seems that this sparrow had fallen a victim to a rapacious bird, known as the “butcher bird,” which strikes its prey with its beak, kills it, pulls off its nead and impales it on a thorn or twig for greater convenience in pulling it to pieces. Dr. Metcalfe, although an industrious huntsman, and familiar with all kinds of birds, says he never before had an actual evidence of the habits of the butcher bird or shrike, of' r which there are more than fifty varieties. — Thomasville (Ga.)

The Returned Argonaut.

Sometimes, on visiting my native village, I stand before one of those oldfashioned houses from whose front door, thirty-four years ago, there went forth, for the last time, the young Argonaut on his way to the ship. There is more than one suoh house in the village. The door is double, the knocker is still upon it, the window panes are small, the front gate is the same, and up to the door the same stones lie upon the walk. But within all are strangers. The father and mother are past anxious inquiry of their sons. The sisters are married and live or have died elsewhere. A new generation is all about. They never heard of him. The great event of that period—the sailing of that ship for California—is sometimes recalled bj a few—a few rapidly diminishing. Hu name is all but forgotten. Some of him have a dim remembrance. In his time he was an important young man in the village. He set the fashion in collars and the newest style of plugs. Oh, fame, how fleeting! What is a generation ? A puff. A few old maids recollect him. What a pity, what a shame that we do all fade as a leaf! What a sad place; what a living grave is this for him to return to! Where would he find the most familiar names? In the cemetery. Who would he feel most like? Like “Rip Van Winkle.* Who are these bright and blooming lasses passing by? They are her grownup children—she with whom he sat up that last Sunday night in the old-fash-ioned front parlor on the old-fashioned sofa. Where is she? That is she, that stout, middle-aged woman across the street. Is she thinking of him? No; she is thinking whether there shall be cabbage or turnips for dinner. Who is that codgery-looking man going up the street? That is the man she didn’t wait for and married. Should the Argonaut return home if he could ? No. Let him stay where he is and dream on of her as she was, blight, gay, lively, blooming and possibly romantic. The dream is solid happiness compared with the reality. Let him at twilight sit in his cabin-door, on Delirium Tremens bar, and dream on while the sun gilds the foothill summits. If he can not so dream soberly,- let him get a bottle of corn whisky and dream on that. Better even that than the hard, cold, damp, gray reality. What is the end of it all ? Bones! Bones!! Bones 11!— Prentice Mui ford,in San Francisco Chronicle.

Rheumatism in a Nutshell.

People seem to forget that if disease goes out through the pores, misohief as surely goes iu through the stomach. If they will persist in eating fruit, tough meat, and the unhallowed baked bean in the evening or latter part of the day, when the digestive organs are not at their best, dyspepsia will certainly follow, and rheumatism its inevitable result. Rheumat’sm is of course aggravated by dampness; any one might say exasperated by tea and coffee. Those delightful stimulants for warm weather seem to be injurious in the winter—they are a device of the enemy. The revised Book might well read: “And while men slept the enemy sowed" tea. Certain it is if cocoa was drunk in place of tea and coffee during the cold season, rheumatism would have few'entertainers.—Boston Journal.

G. M. D.

A Medley, * Mystery, a Marvel and * Miracle. The Story of a Dream. “Get money, honestly, if you can, but get money,” was a foolish father’s advice to his son. Get money, if you can honestly, makes but a slight alteration of the words, but varies the sentiment considerably. There is no harm in making money. It answereth all things. Used rightly, it is a power for good, and there is money enough in the world to form alever by which the mass of humanity could be lifted, tp » certain extent, out of its depths of sorrow and despair. Money we must have, for money makes the mare go. Some can make money who have no facility for saving. Would you save -you must know how to deny those who would borrow and never repay, as weS as those who beg simply because they are too lazy to work. There are men who never want to see you except to ask the favor of a loan. They will ask for just one word with yon, and that one word is sure to be money. An impecunious fellow met a rich acquaintance, and, not liking to ask directly for a loan, said: “Friend Smith, if yon had ten dollars in your pocket, and I was to ask you for the loan of five, how many would remain in your pocket?* “Ten dollars, to be sure,” replied the rich man, without a moment’s hesitation. He had gumption, and knew too much to part with his money by any such rule of subtraction. 0,1 see, said the impecunious man thus rebuffed. He was able to owe. He was one of the Micawber sort—always waiting for something to turn up. How like some people who are sick. They think to get well by letting disease take care of itself. But diseases do not heal themselves, and too late their victims full often find this out to their sorrow as death seizes upon them. Had they been wise in time they might have added many years to their lease of life. The cure was nigh them, as it is nigh to all who read this medlev. These paragraphs tell the story, as a patient perusal will prove. Those who have keen insight and can read between the lines may solve the conundrum the sooner for it, but upon all light will dawn ere they read the final word of our story. Light will dawn, we said, and so it will, light of hope and help. Light is what a certain Individual wanted. Mr. Jones we will call him. He was very sick. Consumption had fastened its fangs upon him. He had long neglected catarrh, and laughed at the idea of taking anything for it when advised to do so, and so went from bad to worse. His lungs became diseased, a hacking, churchyard cough racked him almost to pieces, and he was fast wasting away. A mere shadow of his former self, he scarcely slept at all at night, or slept only to dream horrible dreams. Talk of nightmare! A whole circus troupe, horses and all, seemed to make his bed the arena of their wild performances In this case money did not make the mare go, for he spent a deal of money on doctors and physic and was nothing bettered He ate little, and was fast going down to an untimely grave, leaving his wife a widow and his four bright children orphans, whenlo! on one eventful night he dreamed for once a bright and happy dream, which our next paragraph will relate. « Death, the blaok-visaged monster, had until then stared him in the face, but the dream brought him hope. He saw a bright, whiterobed angel in his dream, who said, I “come to bring you good newa Here is your cure —sure, safe, harmless, prompt and reliable. Get well and seek to take health thereby to others. Behold the cure!” With these words the angel was gone, but ere the trail of light which followed him had vanished the dreamer saw, glittering in the light, three golden letters—G. M. D. “What can it mean?” he said to himself, as he awoke from his slumber. “I have had a Good Many Dreams before, but never such as this.” Startled and surprised, he aroused his wife and to her related his vision. Alas, shecould not solve the problem. Remembering all the medical advice, and the physic, ana the expense involved since her husband became sick, she expressed that the letters were not intended to suggest that a Good Many Doctors must yet be consulted in addition to all that had been interviewed. He groaned in reply and remarked that if he had to consult any more there would have to be a Gold Mine Discovered in order to pay them.

Every day for a week he and his faithful spouse searched diligently for a key to the problem. In the dictionary, in such newspapers as they happened to have, in books, on placards on the walls—everywhere they sought—hoping to find a clew. Letters stand for words, and they hoped'to light upon the words that should suggest the cure. They Grieved Many Days over their lack of good luck, as they said, and the Good Mau Dreamed again and again, but saw no more angela Hope deferied maketh the heart sick. “Oh, that the angel had Guided Me Definitely and Given More Directions,” he exclaimed, again and again. Nearly two weeks had elapsed since the night of the Great Mysterious Dream, when there came to the house a pamphlet Tired with his exhausting office work, which he still pursued, determining if possible to die in the harness, Jones was about to throw the pamphlet in the fire when something prompted him to examine it Surely, thought he, here can be nothing that will Pierce this Gloom Most Distressing, or Give Me, Disheartened, any relief. 'Poor man, he had worked letters over in his mind, and made so many combinations with them, that they occurred in almost every sentence he uttered. They entered even into his prayers. Heaven Grant Me Deliverance, he would say, nor let disease Grind Me Down, and so forth, ad infinitum, and a mile or two beyond. Mentally tortured and suffering in every fiber of his body, what wonder that he read page after page of the pamphlet It was a work on diseases, and fn the morbid state of his mind its contents seemed to suit him. It spoke of almost every disease that flesh is heir to, but oh, joy! as he read, a Glimpse Most Delightful of light stole in upon him. “Eureka! Eureka!” he cried. “Wife, I have it. I have it ”

Everybody in the house heard him cry Eureka, ana rushed to the room to hear what he had found. All expected to see some Great Miracle Done, and then came the explanation. Simple, of course, but why had he not thought of it before? Oh, what a revelation! Here was hope for him and for all consumptives. Here, hope for suffering friends and neighbors. That night he scarce could sleep, but when he did he again saw a bright vision of golden letters, in fact, a Glittering Monogram Deciphered readily, and reading G. M. D., and again P. P. P., and yet again F. P., and one huge P., around which these others were entwined, and then W. D. M. A All the letters blended, yet each was distinct. AU he had seen in the book, aU he again saw in his vision. Dream Most Glorious. D. M. G.—G. M. D. —Again he rang the changes; backward, forward, every way. Gold Medal Deserved. MG. D.— Misery’s Great Deliver—till time would fall to tell them all P. P. P. stood for Perfect Peace Promised for sufferers, and sweet release from Prostrating Purgatorial Pains. And again F. P. was Freedom Promised, and backward, P. F. it became Pain Flees. Now he could get .well, and once well, he would be a missionary, a Glad Missionary Devoted to the work of telling others how they might get deliveranca He went through the list of diseases among those of his own acquaintance, from John Robinson, whose torpid liver gave him constant headache and severe bilious attacks, on through the list of those suffering from ulcers, coughs, weak and diseased lungs, to his friend, Gen. B , who was as near the grave as he. And for all these, as weU as for himself, the Grave May Disappear from S resent vision, and each may be Given More ecades of life than they had hoped to have years Against the milder oases he marked P. P. P. Against the serious oases he marked G. M. D., not the Grizzly Monster Death, which he so long had dreaded, but something—oh, so much better, as we shall presently sea In a short while our hero was well, and went everywhere K among his friends and neighbors, teUing of his good fortune and showing the sick and the suffering how they might be healed. Some laughed and continued to suffer, refusing to be healed. More were wise, took his counsel aud proved his vision of the night as he had dona

“A vision, less beguiling far, Than waking dreams by daylight are." Can anything be more delightful than health after sickness? To be a well man, to feel pure blood coursing through your veins, to know that lungs, liver, kidneys and all the Grand Machinery Does its duty perfectly in one’s body; to carry health's ruddy mark on the cheeks. Ah, this is Good Most Decidedly. This was our hero’s case, and thousands can tell the same story. The good angel has come to them. They have seen the letters Gleam Most Distinctly before their eyea, and Going Most Definitely to work in pursuing the instructions given, they have recovered that great blessing— Health. G. M. D. has been to them a channel of good. Good Mysteriously Done, and they have bid their sick friends do what all the sick should do, namely, put themselves In communication with the W. D. M A.. Which Done Most Assuredly will put them in the Way Desired Most Anxiously. Alas, that human nature is so slow to bolieve—alas, that men and women are bowed down with the burden of complaints, of which they might be rid—consumption, bronchitis, dyspepsia, heart disease, kidney disease, malarial complaints, scrofulous diseases, skin diseases, tumors, ulcers and many mora It would seem as though son>e ill-deity had given every letter of the alphabet as many diseases as it could possibly desire, thus forming an alphabet of sorrow, suffering and woa Happy they who, the Great Mystery Discerning, have escaped the clutches of sad diseasea Looking back upon his past experience, Mr. Jones feels Grateful Most Decidedly, and continues telling the old story of his sickness, his vision, and his restoration to health; tor *U w«Uy«& RuthehM

The .mystery will soon be revealed. If the key be not on your rteAf hand it to fit least on opened the portal to a long life and a useful OD€l Initials of words that stand for all that is sorrowful and sad, letters, the self-same letters, are often initials of words that breathe of hope apd benediction.

Columbus discovered America and won high honor and immortal tame, and tpey who have learned the secrets of the wonder before your eyes, good reader. Give Most Delightful testimonials of their gratitude Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these—it might have been—so sayeth the poet. When we think of the myriads that might have been saved from untimely graves had they seen Mr. Jones’ vision and sought his way to health, we feel sad. Yet we cannot but rejoice at the Great Many Delivered from death’s door by G. M. D., and that Pain’s Positive Persecution has been escaped again and again by P. P. P. Virtues unnumbered serve to make G. M D. the Greatest Mercy Deigned by favoring providences for the relief of sufferers, ana Its discoverer feels P. P. P.—Perfectly Pardonable Pride, in telling of the Growing Multitude Delivered from the Grasp Most Dreadful of Greedy Mournful Death. Every sick person is interested in the theme before us, and every well person, too, for who does not know some one who is sick and needs, therefore, the good news of health that is Given Many Daily. Reader, mystified reader, we will detain S>u no longer. Perhaps you have Guessed oat Deftly the hidden meaning. P. P.

Pierce (the large and central P of Mr. Jones’ second vision), all at the service of the sick and suffering everywhere; while G. M. D. is—well read the initials of the paragraphs of this article and you will see that G. M. D. is Golden Medical Discovery, the boon of the diseased. This wonderful medicine cures all humors, from the worst scrofula to a common blotch, pimple or eruption. Erysipelas, salt-rheum, fever-sores, scaley or rough skin, in short, all diseases caused by baa blood, are conquered by this powerful, purifying and invigorating medicine.

THOUGH SALT RHEUM

Does not directly imperil life, It is a distressful, vexatious and resolute complaint Patient endurance of its numerous very small watery pimples, hot and smarting, requires true fortitude. If the discharged ifaatter sacks, itches, and the scabs leave underneath a reddened surface, the disease has not departed, and Hood’s Sarsaparilla, in moderate doses, should be continued. FAMOUS CASE IN BOSTON. 'My little four-year-old girl had a powerful eruption on her face and head. Under her eyes it was regular scalding red and sore, like a burn. Back of her left ear we had to shave her hair close to her head. Five or six physicians and two hospitals gave up her case as incurable, save that she might outgrow it. When it began to maturate I became alarmed. In three weeks, with Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the sores began to heal; two bottles made her eyes as clear as ever. To-day she is as well as I am.” JOHN CAREY, 164 D Street, South Bostop. ATTEST: I know John Carey. He is an honest, good man, whose statements are worthy of entire credit. I believe what he says about his child's sickness. CLINTON H. COOK, Milk Street, Boston.
