Lincoln on Quarrels.

After telling of the Shields duel, in the Century, Nicolay and Hay give the following: “This was Mr. Lincoln’s last personal quarrel. Although the rest Of his life was passed in hot and earnest debate, he never again descended to the level of his adversaries, who would gladly enough have resorted to unseemly wrangling. In later years it became his duty to give an official reprimand to a young officer who had been court-martialed for a quarrel with one of his associates. The reprimand is probably tho gentlest recorded in the annals of penal discourses, and it shows, in few words, the principles which ruled the conduct of this great and peaceable man. It has never before been published, and it deserves to be written in letters of gold on the walls of every gymnasium and college. “The advice of a father to his son, •Deware of entrance to a quarrel, but being in, bear it that the opposed may beware of thee I’is good, but not the best. Quarrel not at all. No man resolved to make the most of himself can spare time for personal contention. Still less can be afford to take all the consequences, including the vitiating of his temper and the loss of self-con-trol. Yield larger things to which you can show no more than equal riglit) and yield lesser ones though clearly your own. Better give your path to a •dog than be bitten by him in contesting for the right. Even killing the dog will not cure the bite.”

What Boston’s Girls Are Finding Out.

What is the outcome of the surplus woman here ? With all the pain and privation accompanying the condition of affairs, there is good working out of it. More women in Boston than perhaps in any other American city are being taught to depend on themselves and their own powers. More women here than elsewhere are, through these hard paths, being taught the error of marrying simply for a home and an assured support. Women here are commencing to find out that their “rights” are their own powers; that talent, executive ability,and other forces of mind, of which the many now know little, belong to womah as much as to man. They are finding out that actresses in the drama of life are as necessary as actors, and that the play cannot go on Without them. There is to-day in Boston a generation of' younger women, •whose characters, being shaped by the present Condition of affairs, have determined almost unconsciously to “paddle their own canoes.”— Boston letter. . —; Still at It. ■ • Penitent husband (returning from the club) —I’ve (hie) got anuzzer load, Jessie, Disgusted wife—No, John, you’re mistaken. - P. H.—.Mishtaken! Zen (hie) I’m all right, D.W.—No, John. But you haven’t got another load. You’ve never lost the one you got the day after we were married.

After Marriage, What?

A Cheyenne clergyman, the Bev. B. E. Fields, lectures on the subject, “After Marriage, What?* Sometimes it’s poverty, Mr. Field, occasionally divorce, but more frequently paregoric and soothing syrup, croup, mumps and measles. Indeed, there are ever so many things after marriage—numerous old maids, for instance. --Chicago hail, _ ■ Cms Field says he has been offered ■1325,000 cash for the New York Mail and Express.

A LESSON WITH A MORAL

When Will Our Eyes Be Opened to This Great National Calamity? The year lßßG.played sad havoc with many prominent men of ohr country. Many of then! died without warning, passing away apparently in the full flush of life. Others were sick but a comparatively short time. We turn to our flies ami are astonished to find that most of them died of apoplexy, of paralysis, of nervous prostration, of malignant blood-humor, of Bright’s disease, of heart disease, of kidney disease, of rheumatism, or of pneumonia. It is singular that most of onr prominent men die of these disorders. Any journalist who watches the telegraph reports, will be astonished at the number of prominent victims of these disorders. Many statements have appeared in our paper with others to the effect that the diseases that carried off so many prominent men in 1886, are really one disease, taking different names according to the location of the fatal effects. When a valuable horse perishes, it becomes the nine days’ talk of the sporting world, and yet thousands of ordinary horses< are dying every day, their aggregate lose is .enormous, and yet their death creates no comment. . So it is with individuals. The cause of death of prominent men creates comment," especially when it can be shown that one unsuspected- disease carries off most of them, and yet “vast numbers of ordinary men and women die before their time every year from the same cause.” It is said if the blood is kept free from uric acid, that heart disease, paralysis, nervous prostration, pneumonia, rheumatism, and many cases of consumption, would never be known. This uric acid, we are told, is tho waste of the system, and it is the duty of the kidneys to remove this waste. We are told that if the kidneys are maintained in perfect health, the uric, kidney, acid I is kept out of the blood, and those sudden and universal diseases caused by uric acid will, in a large measure, disappear. But how shall this bj done? It is folly to treat effects. If there is any known way of getting at the cause, that way should be known to tho public. We bel.evo that Warner’s safe cure, of which so much has been written, and so much talked of by the public generally, is now recognized by impartial physicians apd the public as tho one specific for such diseases. Because public attention has been directed to this great remedy by means of advertising, some persons have not believed in the remedy. Wo can not see how Mr. Warner could immediately benefit the public in any other way, and his valuable specific should not be condemned because some nostrums have come before the public in the same way, any more than that all doctors should be condemned because so many of them are incompetent. It is astonishing what good opinions you hear on every side of that great remedy, and public opinion thus based upon an actual experience has all the weight and importanbe of absolute truth. At this time of the year the uric acid in the blood invites pneumonia and rheumatism, and there is not a man who does not dread these monsters of disease; but he need have no fear of them, we are told, if he rid the blood of the uric acid cause. These words are strong, and may sound like an advertisement and be rejected as such by unthinking people, but we believe they are the truth, and as such should be spoken by every truth-loving newspaper.

Slightly Embarrassing.

A Bostonian visiting Washington recently went to the Capitol, and thinking it would be comfortable in the gallery appropriated to ladies accompanied by gentlemen appeared at the entrance and was stopped by the doorkeeper. ' “No gentlemen are admitted here except with ladies.” The o’d gentleman (for he was a Bostonian of mature age, as well as blue blood) was equal to the emergency. “But my wife is in here. ” “Very well; go in.” On entrance he discovered, to his dismay, that the only person present was a well-dressed colored woman. On coming out the doorkeeper civilly inquired: “Did you find your wife?”— Bos ton Record.

Beards Among the Clergy.

The question of beards was a fruitful subject of discussion in the early councils of the church. The early fathers wore beards, and there was a particular canon adopted in the third century forbidding the priosts to shave. The Popes wore beards until the separation o£ the Latin and Greek Churches, in the eighth century, when, under the decree of Pope Leo lIL, the Latin clergy were ordered to cut off their beards as a mark of disfmction from the Greek priests, who retain theirs to this day. Pope John NIL was deposed in '. 63 for having, among other crimes, worn his beard. At several councils of the church since that time the question has been discussed, but the decision has been uniform tnat the clergy shall be shaven, in order to be unlike other men.

Telephone vs. Telegraph.

It appears that communication by telephone to great distances, though an interesting and wonderful scientific achievement, is not likely to prove commercially important. Estimates by Dr. Wietlisbach place the cost of a telephone line 1,256 miles long, over which speech is possible, at over $250,000; and to make such a line profitable it must earn a dollar a minute, a brief conversation thus costing $5 or $lO. The telegraph works at this distance at about a tenth of the cost, and is cheaper for all distances of more than 300 miles, the economy being with the telephone below about that limit. Dr. Gross, physician at St, Vincent’s Hospital, Baltimore, Mff.j - considers Reff Star Cough Cur? perfectly harmless, being purely vegetable and entirely free from opiates, poisons, and other narcotics. Other professionals also indorse it as prompt, safe, and sure. Price, twenty-five cents a bottle. The danger of leaving a light burning near an open window was exemplified in a decidedly costly manner in a Brooklyn apartment house. The wind blew a curtain against a lighted gas jet, a blaze followed, and, as at the time the tenants of the several flats were all away from home, the fire hurned undisturbed nntil it had damaged the building and furniture to the extent of about $9,000. A little thought shown in shutting the window or turning off the gas would have prevented what was. doubtless a great misfortune to three families,— Fire and Water. A literary gentlemen, when a witness in a suit at law, was insultingly treated by a shallow and conceited lawyer named Hawkins, and took his revenge off and handing to the opposing counsel these lines: When Nature formed Hawkins she calleAfor her shears; " ......

The magical effects of St. Jacobs Oil in removing soreness and stiffness make it invaluable at all times. Rheumatism and Neuralgia promptly yield to it.

Wonders of the Sea.

The sea occupies three-fifths of the earth. ’■ The'Mediterranean is quite shallow. A drying up of ,660 feet would leave three different seas, and Africa would be joined with Italy. Evaporation is a wonderful power in ' drawing the water from the sea. j Every year a layer of the entire sea fourteen feet deep is taken up in the clouds. The water is colder at the bottom than at the surface. In the many bays on the coast of Norway the water often freezes at the bottom before it does above. At the depth of about 3,500 feet waves are not felt. The temperature is the same, varying only a trifle irom the ice of the pole to the burning sun of the equator. A mile down the water has a pressure of over a ton to the square inch. If a box six feet deep were filled with sea water and allowed to evaporate under the sun there would be two inches of salt left on the bottom. Taking the average depth of the ocean to be three miles, there would be a layer of pure salt 230 feet thick on the bottom of the Atlantic. If the Atlantic were lowered 6,464 feet the distance from shore to shore would be half as great, or 1,500 miles. If lowered a little more than three miles, say 18,680 feet, there would be a road of dry land from Newfoundland to Ireland. This is the plain on which the great Atlantic cables were laid. Waves are very deceptive. To look at them in a storm one would think the water traveled. The water stays in the same place, but the motion goes on. Sometimes in storms these waves are forty feet high, and travel fifty miles an hour—more than twice as fast as the swiftest steamer. The distance from valley to valley is generally fifteen times the height, hence a wave five feet high will extend over seventy-five feet of water. It has been found difficult to get correct soundings of the Atlantic. A midshipman of the navy overcame the difficulty, and a shot weighing thirty pounds carries down the line. A hole is bored through the sinker, through which a rod of iron is passed, moving easily back and forth. In the end of the bar a cup is dug out, and the inside coated with lard. The bar is made fast to the line, and a sling holds the shot on. When the bar, which extends below the ball, touches the earth the sling unhooks and the shot slides off. The lard in the end of the bar holds some of the sand, or whatever may be on the bottom, and a drop shuts over the cup to keep the water from washing the sand out. When the ground is reached a shock is felt, as if an electric current had passed through the line.

Physicians Have Found Out

That a contaminating and foreign element in the blood, developed by indigestion, is the cause of rheumatism. This settles upon the sensitive sub-cutaneous covering of the muscles and ligaments of the joints, causing constant and shifting pain, and aggregating as a calcareous, chalky deposit which produces stiffness and distortion of the joints. No fact which experience has demonstrated in regard to Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters has stronger evidence to support it than this, namely, that this medicine of comprehensive uses checks the formidable and atrocious disease, nor is it less positively established that it is preferable to the poisons often used to arrest it, since the medicine contains only salutary ingredients. It is also a signal remedy for malarial fevers, constipation, dyspepsia, kidney, and bladder ailments, debility, and other disorders. Seo that you,get the genuine. ...
