THE CONSTITUTIONAL CATARRH REMEDY does something more than merely repress or suspend the symptoms of the disease—reaching its constitutional causes, and renovating the vital energy, which is the natural antagonist of sickness and physical decay.

Because when the animal powers and the capacity for. mental exertion are deadened for the time being either by convivial indulgence or any other. debilitating agency, it speedily restores the equilibrium of the system, and the ability to think and labor.

This medicine does positively eure, and that where everything else has failed. No medicine can show one-half 8o many positive and permanent cures as have already been effected by this truly wonderful remedy.

When a man gives $5 to a charity he likes to see his name in print, and he goes on at a frightful rate if the newspapers “don’t publish the news;” but when he visits a “resort” and is gently pulled in by the police and his name adorns the local column, “the newspapers are scurrying around, printing eyery confounded thing they ‘can get hold of.”

SULPERUR. FOR DIPHTHERIA.—MTr. John 8. Wiles, a surgeon of Thorncombe, Dorget, writes to the London Times that after two cases of malignant diphtheria out of some nine or ten he had been called to attend had proved fatal, the mother of a sick child showed him an extract from an American paper concerning a practitioner who used: sulphur to cure the disease. Accordingly he used milk

of sulphur for infants and flowers of . ‘sulphur for older children and adults, brought to a creamy consistence with glycerine; Dese—a teaspoonful or more, scgording to age, three or foar times a day, swallowed slowly, and application of the same to the nostrils with a sponge. Results: he did not lose a case there or ¢lsewhere, and he succeeded in saving life when the atfection had almost blﬁ'ked the throat. Hon. 7. K. Edge:(gon, President of the Forz Wayne Medical College, has drawn two bills for presentation to the Legislature, the first one providing for the “preventjlon of grave robbing” and the second in “aid of medical science.” . :

MusT PAY ScHOOL TAX—Every now and then the question is raised in towns like this whether a persen, living outside of an incorporated town, but attached to the corporation for schocl purposes, could be assessed a special tax, to pay for the building of school houses. A few weeks ago the question came before the Supreme Court from the Newton Circuit Court, in the ease of Alex. J. Kent vs. Town of Kentland, and the opinion of the court was delivered by Biddle, Judge, as follows: “Complaint by the appellant against the appellee to enjoin the collection of a special additional tax levied under the authority of section three, act of March 8, 1873, upon certain lands owned by the appellant, and situate outside of the corporate limits, for the purpose of paying the interest and principal on certain bonds issued by the town of Kentlard to aid in the erection of school buildings.— The appellant, although residing without the corporate limits of said town, sent his children to school there. The law under which the tax was assessed provides that ‘persons residing outside of any such city or town, and electing to be transferred to such town or city for educational purposes, or who shall send their children to the school taught in any such building, shall, with their property, be liable to such tax as if they reside in such city or town, on all property ewned by said person in the tewnship where such city or town is located.’ Held, this law is constitutional. The appellant, having voluntarily enjoyed the benefits of the town school, is bound to pay the tax, whether he caused himself to be transferred to such adjdining district for educational purposes or not. The fact that he failed to have himself transferred cannot affect the law to which he made himself liable to taxation by sending his children to. be taught at the adjoining gchool.”:

REMEDY FOR DIPHTHERIA.—A. COTrespondent of the Kirkwood (Iowa) News publishes the following as a sure remedy for Diphtheria: “Dilute four drops of sulphuric aeid and threefourths of a tumbler of water (this constituting a dose for adults, which should be proportienately smaller for children) to be given at intervals not specified. The result is said to be a coagulation. of the diphtheritic membrane, and: is readily removed by coughing. Itis stated that when the case thus treated has not advanced to a nearly fatal termination, the patient inyariably reeovers. The government of Australia offered a large reward for any certain cure. This was sent in by the celebrated Dr. Greathead, who for many years kept it a secret. It took the premium over several hundred ,others. Another preventive: Take a strip of flaunel wide enough to sew a thin slice of bacon between; wear this constantly around the neck. It never fails to prevent.”

RELIGIGUS NOTICE.—The present expectation is that religious or revival services will be held in the Methodist Church ' every evening of the coming week except Saturday evening. The subject of discourse on Monday evening will be “Prayer,” when an effort will be made to answer some of the objections and solve some of the difficulties existing in the mindsof sorhe people with regard to that subject. It is the intention of the pastor to speak from the following texts, and in the order here given, the other evenings of the week in which services are held: Matthew, 9; 37,88. 1J0hn,5;4. 1 Samuel, 145 6. James, 5; 20.

—The editor of the Warsaw Union announces a new departure iu the management of his paper, thus: “In the future it is our intention to consult the imterests of the paper as well as the interests of personal and political friends. - A publisher may sacriflce business to the amount of hundreds of dollars for a political aspirant, and after the election he will have the impudence and cheek to discontinue the paper because he wants to take a city weekly. lublishers ought to have a right to use common sense in the conductof their business as well as other people.” 5

ANOTHER PIONEER GONE.— Mrs. Sparklin, wife of the late Azel Sparklin, and mother of Dr. C. C. Sparklin, of this city, died at her residence on Elkhart Prairie, on Monday evening, aged about 78 years. She was a sister of Mrs. Major Violett, and was one of the early settlers in this county. She was one of the best of women, .

Cookerly, one of the members of the eonstitutional convention of 1851, proposes a re-union of the ‘surviving members of that convention, at Indianapolis, during the coming winter. It would no doubt be a delightful eccasion to the participants, and just at this time, when changes in the constitution are urged, such a meeting would be specially opportune. QOyer in Indiunapgi;g, it is no longer safe for a young woman to discourage the proposal of marriage of a young man unless in presence of a public man; and now when she waats to reject him, instead of saying she can “love him on? as a sister,” or any of those dear old sayings, she meanly intimates: “I’ll call the cops.”—CrawSordsville Jowrnal. @ Sen‘rtolt‘twer pregi,éa t&o such an extent in Lagrange that the physicians

DERELICT GUARDIANS, EXECUTORS AND ADMINISTRATORS.—In a recent issue the Warsaw Union expressed the belief that “the Legislature ought to give immediate attention to a new probate system—one that will give administrators and executors a better opportunity to transact theirbusiness, and avoid delay, &c., &c.” to which suggestion the Plymouth Demoerat replied; *“Eight years’ expsrience in matters connected with estates and guardianships has convinced us that the business is neglected, not sa much on account of ‘the delay that is now 80 generally, complained of,’ as it is neglect and downright laziness on the part-of administrators and guardians. In aboeut nine cases out of ten, after the first year or swo they pay mo further attention to their trust, and if they appear in court after that time, it is generally in answer to a citation.” To this Bro. Brown, of the Columbia City Post, adds: “Our experience of four years as Clerk of the Court coin‘cides exactly with that of Bro, McDonald. We do not believe a change is necessary. " If any change should be made in the law it ought to require administrators, executors and guardians to more faithfully fulfjll the du‘ties of their trust, and upon failure tp do g 0 impose heavy penalties.”
