The bakoting to-day for U. S Senator resulted the same as heretofore less the pairs: For Turpie, 72 For Harrison, 68 For Allen, 4 We trust our Democratic Senawill remain firm, to adjournment if need be.

The Republicans are beginning to realize the fact that President of the Senate, Green Smith, is not as “green’’ as his name might imply. lhe Republican should Know that Dr. Patton is the peer of Mr. Thompson, and that its insinuations are calculate' to promote a comparison of the two men. >4 ■ The Republican professes to be fully posted with reference to what information may be in possession of the Senate Commi tee on Elections, but we rather think Mr. Marshall is simply giving his own personal views, under political bias and partizan fidelity to Mr. Thompson. Be that as it may, the committee is composed of men who are at least Mr. Thompson’s peers in honesty, intelligence, and good citizenship, and will no d übt do the right thing in the premises The Senate may nroperly accept the bounds fixed by the lower house upon which to unseat a member, and if not “an eye for an eye, and a tooth fora tooth,” make it a man for a man.

The R ensstlaer Republican is “f°rnenst” the compromise which resulted in the holding of joint sessions of the Senate and House of Representatives of Indiana, and wails out what might have been in the absence of the com. promise: “The contest would have been settled in the United States Senate, and probably in General Harrison’s favor.” Why in General Hnrrison’s favor? Not upon th 5 merits of the claim, but simply and alone bec »use he is a Republican. And such is the status of the honesty of Republican members of the United States Senate, as fixed by their own partizans and press. - Such sentiments are beastly, and is evidence that the authors would winK at and uphold corruption and the misuse of power in high places.

Immediately after the late election, in the interest of the Republican party of Indiana, Dudley assumed the role enacted by Zack Chandler in 1876. Knowing full well that the Legislature was Democratic on joint ballot, he starred out claiming the reverse, with a view takeover up their tracks while engaged in gigantic efforts to steal. This policy put Democrats on their guard, and the theft will not be acc uij li hed. Had the Demo- 1 xutk

Commission withdrawn when the rule applied to Louisiana was lefused in the case of Oregon, they would have performed a commendable act, and fraud would not triumphed in the elevation of •‘Fraud Hayes” to the Presidency. Let the Democratic members of our Legislature continue firm to the end —no compromise; no change of candidate—and a’l wil‘ be well. Vai Seib went to Indianapolis Monday. Mrs. M in. B. Austin is visiting at Crawfordsville. Mr. and Mrs. Abe L. Ha ens arrived Monday evening. ■ Noble J.

Dr. L called in to see Mr. John G. Culp, Barkley township, Thursday, and we are pleased to announce reports considerable improvement in his condition.

PROPRIETARY MEDICINES.

A visit to Dr. Green’s Laboratory, at Woodbury, N. J., has considerably changed our views, and especially our prejudices in regard to what are generally known as “Standard Patent Medicines.” Of course we are getting to that age in life when we are forced to conclude Life itself is a humbug, and naturally distrust anything thal has not withstood long and tried experiences. Being a physician 1h d a curiosit to know how such a sale of two medical preparations could lie sust ined for so many years The perf-ct system upon which the business is conducted, and the pharmaceutical arrangements for the manufacture of the two reci ?e.’. with which we were made acquainted, are sufficiently convincing to us that the August Flower, for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaints, an I Boschhe's German Syrup, mr Throat and Lung Troubles, •■•ere for the complaints they are recommended, most excellent remedies, a n cl only regret that in much of our practice, medical ethics prevent us from prescribing the! l ? wi hout making the formulas pub lie. When we were shown the great quantity of voluntary letters having beon forwarded ' to Dr. Green from all parts of the country, and from all classes of people, lawyers, ministers ami doctors, giving a description of the ailments, testimonials of their cures, etc., I feel like endorsing Dr. Green's nggestion that the Government accept such valuable formulas, and license them for general use by giving protection o the inventor same as patents generally.-—N. T. Druggists’ Circular, Oct? 1886. We understand the broken limb of James Welsh is mending ’■s well nmi rapidly aS could I e ex--pect 4 d. Mr. Robertson, of Guilford, Ind., visited his aunt, Mrs. Jam s W. Douthit, at this place, last week, lemaining over Sunday.

* What True Merit ' ill Do. The unprecedented sale of Bos ghee s 'German Syrup within a few years has astonished the world. It is without doubt the safest and best remedy ever discovered for speedy and effectual cureof Colfis, Coughs and the 'severest Luug troubles. It acts on au ontir-My different ’irincipio from file len ii prescriptions given by Phyu cians, as it does not dry up a Coug , and leave the disease still in the system, but on the contrary removes cause of the trouble, heals th° parts affected and leaves them in a purely healthy condition A rott'e kept m th house for use when the diseases make their appearance, will save doctor's bills and a long spell of serious illness. A trial will convince you of these facts. It is positively sold by al]l druggists and general dealers in the b'T’o, Price. 75 /•’'nf 1 '-, l n ”ge bo Cdt,. 10.52

Health Hints.

Milk contains all that is required by the body, and the proportion of mineral matters, is less irritating than other foods and better digested. Everyone should keep a bottle ready of equal parts of strong lime-water and shaken together to use on burns and scalds, or for chapped hands. Frozen oranges a’-e regarded as the cause of some recent sickness at Palatka, Fla. The Herald of that place says the poison in the peel is driven into the orange by the frost An experienced vocalist has, it is said, during fourteen years cured any number of cases of obstinate cough by prescribing the free use of oysters as a diet The remedy is easily tried. Distressing palpitation, says the Medical World, may generally be relieved by bending double, the head down and hands hanging so as to produce a congestion of the upper part of the body. Cures of sciatica are reported as having taken place in Paris after a single application of Dr. Debove’s method of freezing the skin above the painful parts with a spray of chloride of methyl. The operation is said to be applicable also to facial neuralgia.— N. Y. Sun. According to Gen. Morin, the eminent French expert, the proper temperature in well-ventilated places is as follows: Nurseries, asylums and schools, 69 degrees; workshops, barracks and prisons,s9 degrees; hospitals 61 to 64 degrees. In dwellings in this country it has been the custom to keep the temperature at 65 to 70 degrees.— Chicago Journal.

Doctors say that women should be cautious how they call to offer sympathy to neighbors having sick children. Women’s clothing offers inducements to fugitive bacteria, and several instances have been recorded lately in which contagious diseases are known to have been brought about by germs carried into the household in the folds of heavy woollen fabrics. In a study upon the nature of hypnotics, M. Dujardin Beaumetz concludes that opium and its alkaloids do not produce a condition of sleep. They stupefy the faculties and induce torpor, but the brain still remains in a condition of tonic excitement. Chloral will bring about true sleep, but in large doses it has a dangerous action on the heart, and its ingestion often gives rise to gastric disorders. The Sanitarian gives some sensible advice about the teeth. It says: Toothbrushes should always be soft and rarely used more than once daily, before breakfast, which is quite often enough to remove the insoluble particles of food which collect at the margin of the teeth. Use the soft brush with water only, or at most, .with nothing else but pure soap in addition. Soap is not only more cleansing than anything else, but it leaves a sweeter and pleasanter taste, and is never followed by injurious effects.

A writer in the People's Health Journal tells of a debilitated patient who did not do at all well on beef tea, but was easily restored to health on a diet of bean soirp. The oniy remarkable thing about tiiis is that the patient ever expected to derive strength nourishment from beef tea alone. Considering that we have Upwards of a hundred thousand doctors, and that a very large proportion of them are fully agreed that beef tea is almost valueless, except as a stimulant, ii is smmrisin. that- people continue to looi-. upon it as a food. Pork is good f-.-r nervous people, but is not easily digested. Wild game is excellent. Fish is good for nervous people, l.ggs boiled just,enough to harden die white are easily digested. It is a mistake about people eating too much. The majority do not. eat enough. Nervous dyspepsia comes from working 100 hard and not eating enough. When a man begins to suffei overwork lie should int plenty of good bread and butter drink two quarts of milk a dav, and eat plenty of good meal. When such a person resorts to a yegetabie diet he grows weaker and loses his nerve power.

Household Hints.

vVhiting wet'vith aqua ammonia will cleanse brass from stains, and is excellent for polishing faucets and doorknobs <if brass or silver. Ham relish may be made by seasoning highly with cayenne pepper a slice of dressed ham, then broiling it, and adding butter, mustard, and a little lemon juice. Salt will curdle milk, therefore in preparing milk toast, sauce, scrambled eggs or anything of which milk is the foundation, do not add the salt till the pan has left the tire. Try this recipe for a pie:’ The pulp of one lemon, chopped fine, with half u cup of raisins; add two tablespoonfulr of flour, one cup of sugar and one ov water. Bake between two thin crusts. Baking powder and soda biscuits should be put into warm pans, and baked in a quick oven; a little warm water rubbed over them just before putting into the oven will give them a nice color. r ' K»--To remove fruit stains from a cambric handkerchief or other white goods, dip the stain in boiling milk; if this is not effectual, apply a very weak solution of chloride of lime, being careful to boil lhe handkerchief afterward. t Typhus fever is marked by short, delirious, broken dreams. Scarlet fever by realistic dreams, excited by surroundings. Remittent fever by l,ong, delirious, painful dreams. Herein ate suggested some suitable points in diagnosis. ( The fat of chickens is said by a cake maker of great experience to be superioi to the firn Letter for making Hie most delicab' e;ike. If the fat of boiled ebiakens tqj>e used. qqqA

out salt, ana mere wm not oe int slightest flavor of fowl. Keep a pin-cushion in the kitchen? If none is at hand, a pin picked up i laid on the window-sill, or stuck in the dress, to fall, perhaps, into the next batch of bread kneaded. Each child should be taught to pick, up everv pin it sees and put it in its proper place. Potato Sofflet.—Bake the potatoes, cut .off one end, take the inside out, saving the skin: masii the potatoes with grated Parmesan cheese, butter, „salt. pepper d mustard, and replace in the skin and bake, standing them upright in a dish. A capital savory for alter dinner. An excellent and simple disinfectant for sinks and waste pipes is made bv mixing,one large tablespoonful of copperas with one quart of boiling water. This solution is odorless and deodorize instantly. The cop’ieras may be bought at any druggist s for eight or ten cents a pound. The lunch i.iid meals, gotten up by Antrim are attracting a patronage 4 o that establishment highly appreciated by the proprietor t hereof. Antrim says his aim will be to deserve it.
