Tug Wilson cleared $9,000 for being knocked down twenty-seven times. This in $333 for each time, the whole business comprising fifteen minutes. Lots of Congressmen get knocked oftener than that for about $400 a month.

Mr. Bright should have consulted Roscoo Conkllng before resigning his seat in tho British Cabinet. It Is quite likely that Mr. Conkllng would have beon able to have given him few points.—[Cincln natl Enquirer.

They can now condole by correspondence.

Says the Hoosier State: "Hon. R. B.F.Peirccls being highly oompllmerited by the press for the tact and genius lie displayed In the running debate in Congress on the appropriation for a public building in Torre Haute."

The best of the story remains to bo told in November, when Terre Haute will step to the front with a substantial recognition of the «ervices of Mr. Peirce.

Ex-Khedives are now regarded as preferred on tho royal market over acting Khedives. Isuiail, who got Egypt into all her trouble by his superior spendthrift habits, is now luxuriating at Rome on an income of a million a year. Up to the present writing he has not put his oar to the telephone to find out how things are getting on with his son on the Nile.

Concerning the business outlook the Financial Chronicle, of New York, has the following encouraging view of the situation:

The outlook this week has continued to Increase In promise. In fact, at present everything sooms to bo tending to make tho situation moro hopeful and if we are only wise and do not permit ourselves to bo elated and carrlod awny by another wild speculation, it appears as if a year of groat prospority awaits us. Of courso, tho primary causo of tho hotter fooling Is tho dally improving crop condition, and tho prospect that tho disturbance in Europe will enablo us to reallzo fair prices for our products. But besides that a feature which has oausod deolded reliof is the rectification in progress in the foreign trade movement as Indicated by tho New York figures. Furthermore—and an important factor—ore tho railroad earnings, which even now continue surprisingly good. And to all this, may we not be excused for adding, that Congress Is on the eve of adjournment?

They say that Conkling is making a fabulous amount of money. A Washington special says:

An intlmato friend of ills who has known Mr. Conkllng all his Ilfo, andjwho assurod a correspondent when Mr. C«nkllng was ottered the position of Associate Justice of tho Supreme Court that ho would not nccopt It, said to-night, In answer to tho question: "Is Mr. Conkllng going to enter politics by running for the office of Congressman-at-large?" "No, thero never was a more absurd story started In tho world. Do you suppose that Mr. Conkllng would even think of such an absurdity? When he refused to go upon the Supreme Bench he made up his mind absolutely to adhere to his practice, and how could ho afford to throw up that practlco? Ho received a foe of 515,000 for two or threo days' work for the stoamshlp companies when h# camo over hero and secured the veto of the Steamship Immigration BUI. He received a foo of 310,000 the other day for making

argument for the Erie Rail

road Company. Judge Blatchford has been able to throw a great deal of business in his way, and his feesaro simply enormous, coming from all directions on account of his extraordinary political influence added to his legal attainments.

This may all be true as relating to circumstances of a remote past, but since Mr. Conkling has drifted into the habit of referring to Mr. Arthur as tho "Prizo Ox of Politics," he may possibly have some trouble in obtaining vetoes.

A correspondent of the New York York World, writing from Lima, Peru, says:

I never before have seen this people so utterly despondent as they are now. They clearly understand that Chili regards the United States with contempt and will allow no government to be formed here unless previous promise is made to surrender Tarapaca, yet by making such a promise Peru would out herself off from

-£.r-??sirs? »seS'v'^-'rr ^«r^ I—*-• *. K-

the only resources she has at hand to otherwise satisfy the demands of the victor or meet her Just debts abroad.

And for this state of aflairs, our State Department, first displaying the masterly inactivity of Evarts, and latterly the blustering, specious policy of Blaine, is largely responsible. When France proposed to mediate for Peru she was thrust aside in a dog-in-the-manger style, and given to understand that the United States Government would bear the "olive branch of peace" to the long suffering people of Pertu-

How far our Government went in this matter is now a subject of history. The fact is we lay supinely on our backs after promising aid to Peru and after instructing Christiancy to state our position to the Peruvian Government. We simply displayed the white feather at the expense of our own self respect and the autonomy of Peru.

The worst feature about it all is that the Peruvians should have been so gullible as to believe in the. promises of a country which, in its treatment of foreign affairs, has tried to be all things to all men, and ended in being respected by none.

Thi New York corresponded of the Toledo Blade says "there is much perturbation in the rankB of extreme orthodoxy concerning the waywardness on spiritual matters of the celebrated pastor of Plymouth church. When so distinguished a teacher as Henry Ward Beech'er openly repudiates the doctrine of eternal punishment, and stigmatizes as puerile if not idiotic the general belief of the fall of Adam, the old Calvinistic world may well be alarmed. And the worst of it is a great many church members and nonprofessors are drifting the same way. An elaborate review of the state of churches in New York recently printr ed, makes a poor showing for all secte except Roman Catholics, Episcopalians and Lutherans. Of these the Catholics are constantly recruited by immigration, and the same is true to some extent with the Lutherans. The Episcopalian church is the natural successor of the Church of England, and is entirely solid by reason of its immefise property and the fact that it is the fashionable and aristocratic church. But there, as in other denominations, (except where the church-goer gives his soul to his pastor and so rids himself of personal responsibility for its fate) attendance upon religious services has rapidly declined, and it may naturally be inferred that indifference if not unbelief prevails to an alarming extent. You may go to a hundred services new and not hear one word of the fire and brimstone that flavored nearly every orthodox sermon when I was a boy. At the same time the repulsive idea of annihilation at death is growing in acceptance, and a great many intelligent men and women make no secret of their belief in it."

Only His Eye, Though.

Chicago Times. Thore are Indications hither and yon that John A. Logan, of Illinois, has his eyo on 1884.

Wants a Quit-Claim.

Burlington Hawkeye. Don'tsay where you saw this, but they do say that Sara Bernhardt's husband Is trying to get a quit-claim from his predecessors to quiet his title.

Chicago Cuoumber Beer.

Chicago Herald. The stuff poddlod out at five cents a schooner in some of Carter Harrlson'sS52-a-yoar saloons is made of rosin one part, alcohol two parts and cucumber the remainder.

Boyalty Pays.

Cincinnati Enquirer. Superintendent Hayes, of tho Windsor polico, rendored valuable servloes when MacLean shot at the Queen, and was rewarded by Her Majesty with 825 in cloan cash. The generosity of the crowned heads 16 something amazing.

Judge Black Didn't Say So.

Boston Horald. Judge Black denies having named General Hancock as the Inevitable Democratic candldato for President in 1884. The denial is only Important as showing that tho wits of the hard-headed Judge havo not gone on a vacation during the heated torm.

A Strained Conolnsion.

Denvor Tribune. The fact that, at the time of his death, a strange but beautiful woman was found occupying General Skobeleff's apartments with him, impels the suspicion that the General must at one time of his life have been a Missouri man traveling In Colorado.

A Terse Way of Putting It.

Denver Tribune. Clara Louise Kellogg did a good deal of insane gabbling awhile ago abcSut her beau, but Annie Loulso Cary kept as quiet as a boy approaching a melon patch. Cary Is married now, but Kellogg Is further away froln matrlmon than a bedbug from glory.

An Honor to Terre Haute.

Marshall Messenger. Tho Terre Haute Express Is tho neatest and most newsy daily that comes to our city. The new editors and proprietors are model newspaper men. Their selections aro token from tho best papers. Their editorials are spicy and pointed. The Express Is an houor to the city of Terre Haute. They have long felt the noed of just such a sheot. We speak of the Express as a newspaper and not as a political sheet. It Is bought and read os often by Democrats as Republicans.

He Bidn't Know.

Texas Sittings. Mr. and Mrs. Hagerty Flynn, although married for 13 or 15 years, wore not blessed with oftfeprlng, so they adopted a little boy, Jolihny, who is now five or six years old. Not long since, however, a son and heir was born uuto them. One of tho visitors remarked Jokingly to Johnny: "I believe I'll take the baby home to my house, Johnny." "No, don't take the baby away," replied Johnny, rubbing his eyes: "we don't know yet when we are going to have any more."

A Thoughtful Wife.

Brooklyn Eagle. One-half of the marital Infelicity in the world is due to the wife's inability to comprehend her husband's little wants or to a stubborn and malignant temper which leads her deliberately to oppose the gratlcation of his wishes. But thero are women who understand this and act accordingly. A Brooklyn lady whose husband had been suffering from despondency was asked If she wasn't afraid he would commit suicide some time. "There's a bare possibility that he

POLITICAL HOTES.

Mayor Grace, of New York, will be a candidate for re-election. Leading Maine Republicans are very confident of the election of their State ticket in September.

It was ex-Secretary Evarts who said that the 306 Grant medals should have been made of beaten brass.

Alabama, Tennessee and Kentucky will hold their State elections next month, and Maine, Vermont and Arkansas will hold theirs in September.

The Democrats of Austin, Texas, are asked to contribute 83,000 to pay the expenses of the Democratic State convention to be held in that city. "Perley," a Washington correspondent, is convinced that Gen. John A. Logan is being systematically brought out as a candidate for the next Presidential nomination.

The project of a coalition between the Republicans and Independents in Missouri is strongly opposed by the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The same paper refused to support a State ticket made up of Republicans and Grangers in 1874.

John T. Raymond, the actor, is busily preparing to bring out a unique and purely American comedy under the suggestive title "For Congress." The play is a novelty in that it is an amusing satire on the methods and manners of Amtrican politics.

Captain John S. Wise, Readjuster candidate, for Congressman-at-Large in Virginia, opened his canvass at Woodstock on Monday Hist, and the Staunton VaUey Virginian says that he made a rattling speech, pleasing his friends and discomforting his enemies.

State Treasurer Polk, of Tennessee, says that the debt-payers are sure of success in the coming election, and that repudiation will soon be stamped out in that State Thousands of Democrats, he says, will vote for Governor Hawkins, the Republican, rather than Imperil the credit of the State.

Colonel Frederick Robie, the Republican candidate .for Governor of Maine, is the head of the order of Patrons of Husbandry in that State and is a practical farmer. Hts farm is composed of 200 acres of land lying south of the pleasant village of Gorhom, and is In an excellent state of culti vation.

A Maryland Republican is quoted as saying to President Arthur a few days ago: "Mr. President, you havo given the Collectorshlp of the Port to Mr. Creswell, the Naval Office to Mr. Garey, the Surveyorship and the Sub-Treasuryshlp to Congressman Urner—now, please do give one office to tho Ropubllcan party of Maryland."

The anti-boss Republican papers of New York State, such as the Albany Evening Journal, the Utica Herald and the Buffalo Express, serve notice upon the Conkllng crowd that any attempt to run the coming State convention by machine tactics will surely disrupt the party, while fair action in the convention will insuro party harmony.

The Syracuse (N. Y.) Daily Journal of Saturday says: "Gentlemen who talked with ex-Senator Conkling during his visit in Syracuse this week, wore strongly impressed with ills implacability toward Governor Cornell, and scout the notion that he is reconciled to the Governor's renomlnatlon. They think he would be glad to see some other man head the ticket in the coming election.

A Washington obituary writer describes the grave as the "low green tent, whose curtain never outward swings."

Skobeleff has been called the Phil.Sheridan of tho Russian army, reference behad, of course, to his drinking capacity.

Jerome Smith, a Boston dry goods clerk, has begun suit against a young lady to recover several valuable presents which he gave her during tho time of their engagement. A dry goods clerk and his girl are soon parted.

Tho Hon. Hamilton Griffin, Miss Mamie Anderson's step-pa, Is enjoying himself at the seaside. There is nothing more arduous in any showman's repertory than dispensing 17,000 matinee tickets to the various newspaper men of the Union.

A. Romanoff: I see that the inhabitants of the groat ropiibllc are treated to numerous executions and prize-fights this summor. I havo always said that tho people of a republla are more cultivated than the subjects of an absolute monarch.

An exchange says that twenty-Aye years ago James H. Bowen was a compositor on the Louisville Courier. Now he is a candidate lor Judge of the Superior Court in the Third District of Kentucky, and is noted as a lawyer. Mr. Bowen should not be Judged too harshly. Printers are subject to many temptations.

The German Emperor's brother Charles consumes from eighteen to twenty-four strong Havana cigars every day, smoking three at a time. It is humiliating that a foreigner should thus surpass our own General Grant, but It should be remembered that Germany Is a much older country than the United States.

The AVashlngton correspondent of the Providence Journal writos: "Mrs. Kate Chase Is at Edgewood with her daughters. It is announced that they will soon be Joined by her son Willie, who has heretofore remained with his father, and go abroad. They have planned a fall excursion, on Shetland ponies, through the Highlands of Scotland."

The Home Journal gives some interesting gossip concerning C. M. Raymond, the husband of Anna Louise Cary, to the effect that he Is a leading member of the Manhattan Club, Now York, and a wealthy, .well-known Wall street broker, having his office at 74 Broadway. Ho went to New York from Norwalk, Connefcticut, where his family reside. He was one of the founders of the Stock Exchange. It is said by the friends of Mr. Raymond that ho and Miss Cary have been engaged for years.

Boston Traveller: Mrs. Frank Leslie has been quite Hi because of close attention to her extensive business as publisher, but Is now better. It is a curious featuro in Mrs. Leslie's history that she owes her present distinction to the death of two husbands. When the first, the late E. G. Squier, died, sho was led by necessity to write for the papers which he formerly edited, and by the death of the latter she became their sole proprietor. She lives in handsome stylo on Fifth avenue, New York.

Mr. Mackay, the millionaire, was mentioned In a story that went the rounds of tli 9 papers some weeks ago as very ungrateful man. The gist of the 6tory was that an old fellow who had befriended Mackay, the boy, is now allowed by Mackay, the man, to end his days In the Ulster county (Now York) Alms House. Mr. Mackay rises to say that he never saw

When about twenty-one years of age he found himself an uneducated youth at work as a laborer In the mines of Sierra county, California, and since then his days have been passed on the Pacific coast.

PISH STORIES.

Turf, Field and Farm. On account of heavy rains, causing high and muddy water, bass-fishing on the Susquehanna has not been up to the usual standard of late. Good fishing is expected during the present month.

Many fine streams frequented of old by various kinds of game fish, have' been ruined by the building of dams without fish-ways, and we are glad to note "that the anglers In such localities seem inclined to compel an obedience to the law on the part of mill owners erecting such barriers against the free run of the finny tribe.

Captain George A. Johnson, of Gloucester, Massachusetts, marks down a new fish food in the grenardier macrurus. Ho and many friends speak highly of its valuable qualities, all agreeing that they never ate a finer sea fish. They average from two to four pounds, and are found on the eastern side of Grand Bank fn 130 fathoms of water.

The anglers while fishing in the Passaic River, New Jersey, frequently catch whit* dace weighing from a few ounces to near a pound. They call them silver trout, and many consider them a new variety, although Henry William Herbert, when fishing in this water, caught and wrote of them many years ago." They .will readily take a fly, and then make a good fight for liberty when struck.

A Newark gentleman return^ last week from Itangely Lake, Maine. He has been staying at one of the numerous public camps, and having great sport with the huge trout that abound la the waters of the chain *of lakes. His largest trout weighed six and one-eighth pounds, and was a veritable speckled trout, not a salmon trout or lake trout. He caught many others ranging from one to five pounds.

In the latter part of the fifteenth century, a quaint writer said of the contemplative art: "The angler, atte the leste, hath his holsom walke ho seeth the young swannes, heerons, duckes, cotes, and ma-' ny other fowles, with their brodes, whych to me seemeth better than all the noise of houndry, the blastes of homes, and the cry of fowles, that hunters, fawkners and fowlers can make. And If the angler catchcth fysche, surely thenne is there no man happyer than he is in his sporte."

Upon sawing a hollow log which had long lain in the- water at Oslikosh, Wis., two fair-sized catfish were found therein, having sought this refuge when vCry small. This nearly equals the incident recorded wherein a veteran of the angle, feeling a tug at his line, raised and found at tho end a jug In which was snugly enr sconsed a well-grown bass—the fish having found its way into the department of the interior when a flngerllng, and sub sistlng on faith and such crumbs of comfort as the vagrant waters supplied.

Not long since a prominent writer on angling topics ventured the assertloni through a contemporary, that the decrease of grayling and the rapid increase of brook trout in tho Jordan River, Michigan, merely indicated "the survival of the fittest." Without discussing the com paratlve merits of the trout and grayling, we must differ from the writer quoted, as regards the theory maintained by him The pike and the pickerel, If placod in waters stocked with trout or grayling, will quickly annihilate the latter, but the result does not indicate a survival of the fittest.

Fish in season In July—Fresh water: Brook trout, black bass, bachclor, chub, Clark's trout, crapple (strawtlerfyj bass, etc.), Dolly Varden trout, grayling, lake trout, land-lock-ed salmon, masklnonge, pike (N. Y. pickerel), pickerel, pike-perch (wall-eyed pike), quinnatsalmon, rainbow trout,rock bas«, striped bass (rock fish), slscowet, salmon, white bass,war mouth, yellow perch. Salt water: Blueflsh, drum, king-fish or barb, lafayette, red bass, sea bass, striped bass, sea trout, sheepshead, scup or porgie, Spanish mackerel, tautog or blackfish, weakflsh, white perch.

Many years ogo (1818), as the "legend" runs, Mr. Alfred Hubbard, of Middletown, Conn., caught a turtle, and after marking it with his initials and date of capture, released It. Twenty-eight years later his son, S. C. Hubbard, capturing the same turtle, again gave it his mark, S. CM!.— 1840, and let it pursue the even tenor of its way. Five years later It was recaptured by another member of the family, when the initials F. W. H. and date—1851— were added. Not long since it wns found for the fourth time by a grandson of the first captor, and the inscription E. N. H., 1882, was duly placed on the "moss-back."

Our friends and contributors, Hon. B. Roosevelt and Seth Green, though proficient almost beyond example on this side of the Atlantlcln the gentlo artof flycasting, would, we venture to say, scarcely attempt to vie "with Ned Locus, who figures so largely In the unique sketches of J. Cypress, Jr.. and who is credited with saying: "I once threw a fly so far and delicately, and suspendedly, that, Just #s it was dropping upon the water, after lying a moment In the scarcely moving air, as though It knew no law of gravity, It actually took life and wings, and would have flown away, but that an old fourpounder seeing It start, sprang and Jumped at it, full a foot out of his element, and thus changed the courso of the insect's travel from the upper air to the bottom of his throat."

A Maine Romance.

Ira Fletcher, self-exiled from his native village in Maine by disappointment in love, roamed for forty years and then yearned for a sight of his home. He-was received as one from the dead. But all about him whs changed, and the friends of his youth were dead. This saddened him, and he brooded over it. A family gathering was in preparation in his nonor, when he left his friends and fled, apparently indifferent whither. After a lew days of renewed wandering he committed suicide.

Responsibility for the Spoils System. Cleveland Leader. All that the United States has of the spoils system it owes to the Democratic party, and all that there is of evil in it emanated from Democrats. Crawford, Van Buren, Jackson and Marcy were its originators and supporters, and it ill behts those who proless to walk in their footsteps and to maintain their political principles to cry out against it. -v

Skeptical of Prayer Cures. Mi

Pittsburg Commercial. It has been satisfactorily demonstrated by physicians that these prayer cures are effected indirectly through the imagination, and not directly through answer to prayer. The strongest proof consists in the fact that where the disease is one not subject to the will or the imagination, there are no well authenticated cases of cure.

They Meet in New York and Go to the Theatre Together. From the New York Tribune, July 10.

At the Bijou Theatre on Saturday night there was a pair that attracted someattention. They sat on the north side of the house, midway between the aisles, about eight rows back from the footlights. There was nothing particularly striking about them. The man was rather insignificant in appearance. He was slight, a little undersized, with a pale face and a Roman nose. He was dressed neatly in black, with a modest scarf, the only jewelry he wore being a scarf-pin and a plain gold chain. Under the seat he occupied lay a small straw hat, encircled By a plain black band. The woman was pretty, with a very graceful figure. Her dress was in excellent taste. It was black, and quietly but fashionably made. Her hat was a small round one, black, and ornamented with two or three feathers of a dark color. She wore little or no jewelry. In her hands, which were ungloved, she carried a blue and white feather fan.

The pair enjoyed the performance They had evidently never seen "Patience" before. They were intelligent enough to appreciate Mr. Gilbert's jokes, and they laughed at all of them as if they had never heard them. Yet their mirth was never boisterous, it was characterized by the same good taste as their dress. The two were not profuse in their attentions to each other,' although the Kan would occasionally lean over toward his companion in an affectionate manner. They were evidently on the best of terms, but their bearing toward each other was rather that of a married couple than of two lovers.

When the last song had been sung and the curtain had fallen the couple left the theatre with the rest of the audience. The woman did not take her companion's arm at first. At the door he stopped and lighted a cigarette. They then turned and walked down Broadway through the crowd. At Twenty-seventh street several painted women and loud-talk-ing men unexpectedly brushed against tlie woman. She shrank instinctively from them, and took her companion's arm as if for protection. "Do you know that couple?" said a yonng man just graduated from Yale, who was Avalking behind them with a friend. "They are Blanche Douglass and Walter Malley."

THAT AR: ESTABLISH

BY TESTIMONY.

We wish to draw the attention of the reader to a few facts which we will afterwards confirm by the most unimpeachable testimony. First, it is a fact that in this cverchanging climate we are one and all exposed to sudden heat and cold, bringing on chills, coughs and colds, which in their turn produce Asthma, Bronchitis, Ulcerated Sore Throat or Consumption. It is a fact that Rheumatism is getting more prevalent svery day, and has becomo chronic with many sufferers. It is a fact that Neuralgia renders the existence of many thousands a life of martyrdom. It is a fact that Catarrh has horrors that no one can form any conception of, except those who suffer. It is a fact that Croup carries more children to the grave than any other infantile disease. It is a fact that we are all liable to accidents, and may get hurt or cut, burned, scalded or bruised, however careful we may be and it is a fact that we are at all times subject to organic derangements of a serious nature, which too often terminate fatally. These aie facts which bear no dispute. But. the next fact is one of serious importance to the public, for every one should know it. It is this, that ,, ..

Thomas' Eclectric Oil

is a positive, reliable and certain cure for all the ailments enumerated, as well as for many others incident to the constitution, such as Stiff Joints, Swelled Neck, Sprains, Chapped Hands, Lame Back, Blind and Bleeding Piles, Chilblains, Frosted Feet, Pains in the Back or any part of the system. In fact, it is a remedy that stands paramount above all others. It is equally effective externally or internally, and all who have ever used it are never without it.

These are facts which arc proved by the following testimony, which we challenge the world to contradict:

A Baptist Minister's Experience. I am a Baptist minister, and before 1 ever thought of being a clergyman, I graduated in medicine, but loft a lucrative practico for my profession, forty years ago. I was for many years a sullererfrom quinsy:—"Thomas' Eclectric Oil cured me." I was also troubled with hoarseness, and Thomas' Eclectric Oil alwavs relieved me. My wife and child had diphtheria, and "Thomas Eclectric Oil cured them," and if taken In tlmo it will cure seven trmcs out of ten. I ameonfldest it Is a cure for the most obstinate cold, and if any one will take a small teaspoon and half fill it with •the Oil, and then place the end of tho spoon into the head by sniffing as hard as they can, until the Oil fulls Into the throat, and practice that twice a week, I don't care how offensive their head may be, it will clean It out and cure their catarrh. For deafness and carache it has done wonders to my certain knowledge. It is tho only medicine dubbed patent medicine that I have ever felt like recommending, and I am very anxious to see it in every place, for I tell you that I would not bo without It forany consideration. I am now suffering with a pain like rheumatism in my right limb, and nothing relieves me like Thomas' Eclectric Oil.

What a Near Neighbor Says, who Spenks from Experience. AKRON, Erie County, N. Y.,

December 6, 1881.

To the proprietors of Thomas' Electric Oil: GENTS—Last March I took a severe cold, and, being negligent in doctoring it, brought the Asthma on me very severe. I could not not lie down or sleep for wheezing and shortness of breath. I too'k this thing and that, and tried different doctors, but found no relief. Six months ago I saw an advertisement in the papers recommending Dr. Thoma's Eclectric Oil, so I thought I would try that, and wonderful to relate, yet nevertheless true, the flrst dose I took relieved me In a few minutes,and before I had taken onefourth of adO-cent bottle I could breathe freely and sleep as well as ever. It Is equally as magical forcuts, bruises, burns and rheumatism. I woke up a few mornings sincc with such a pain In my chest, that I could not draw a long breath, My wife said, "rub on Thomas' Eclectric Oil." I did so, and In a few minutes the pain was gone, and I have not felt it since. My wire, also, had a severe attack of rheumatism in the arm and side. She applied the oil with the same result I would not be without it if 1 had to walk ten miR:s for it, and then pay 85 for a 50 cent bottle. I send you this testimonial hoping you will publish lt» so that suffering humanity may bo relieved of their aches and pains.
