The wonderful success that is attending the Chinese physician in Indianapolis—svho certainly is an educated man, and a distinguished one hnidE own country - prompts one to a little investigation and thought regarding the Chinese nation and people. Superficially, of course, every school boy knuws that many of the.so• called scientillc discoveries, such as steam, gun powder, electricity, prir.titig, etc.', are old in China. It is no less a fact that most modern discoveries in medicine are known, and have been in use in China for hundreds of years. Take for instance, that panacea and stock remedy of all schools of physicians, quinine. The mother's household remedy for all. the family ills, camphor, which is a native of Kwangsi, Fuhkien and Formosa, The powerfulthough dangerous—opium; many of our most valued simple drugs and roots, such as rhubarb, gentian, ginseng etc., come from China. Follow ing this line of thought to its logical conclusion does it not seem probable that this people, who have produced such men as the renowned Confucius—a people who jealously guard their valuable secrets, and pass them down from generation to generation, from father to son, as an oath bound lagacy; a nation who in their one empire and its provinces, number nearly one half the population of the globe—would it be at all strange if their greatest discoveries. and most valuable secrets, in medicines and chemistry, wrested from nature, who does not give up her sec-

rects without a struggle, by thousands of years of continued application and the comulative wisdom and skill and subtle cunning, that is hauled down from sire to son—every step being fdrward, nothing lost,-would it be strange then, if this naturally secretive people had preserved., their magical and mysterous secret remedies against the ruth less hand of time, the invasion of enemies and envious inquisitive investigation of “enlightened Christian people. Think of a man having to spend more than twenty years of his life, acquiring and profiting by the resuit of the leaaning, wisdom and researches of his forefathers for sixteen generations back, in addition to his own college education, before getting his diploma; but the personal endorsement of the Emporor was his reward. Bearing out this theory, is there another people on earth, pagan oi Christian, who, notwithstanding the density of their population and tne peculiary indiscriminate relations of the sexes, are so free from virulent diseases? Natural laws, holding sway over all created beings, forbid the assumption that disease is not prevalent and contracted, aud even inherited there as elsewhere; but that deep-seated and virulent diseases are not common, do not exist—are not recognized as national disorders, leads to but one reasonable conclusion—they have mastered its cure.- Lafayette Sunday Times.

4 SAD CONDITION I suffered for five years with the worst form of Blood Poison, during which lime I wa= the best physicians I could find, and tried numbers of proprietary medicines without any behSficlal results. I continued to grow worse all this time, until my whole system was destroyed by the vile disease; my tongue and throat having great holes caused by it. I then commenced taking Swiffs Specific (S. S.S.), and in a few months 1 was entirely cured, and to tins great medicine do I attribute my recovery This was over two ye rrs ;;go, and I have had do return, or any efiect of the disease since,and my skin is today as smooth and clean as anybody's. , 1 - WILLAM SOWERS.

Plenty of rain to make the gardens grow, if it was not sb cool. Born, to the wife of Max Alghrim, May 9th, a boy. „ ’ There is considerab !e sickness in this place, mostly arising from hard colds. Mrs. Ellis Pierce, of Paducah, Kentucky, is visiting relatives and friends in this place. Seth J. Bentley has rented the old three I. depot to live in until he gets his new house completed. Rev. P. Davis has purchased the Dr.,Ellis property, and is going to move into town; There are several new houses in process of erection now; the town is growing if crops do not. Some person or persons attempted to get into the house of Mrs. Betty Melser, but were defeated by her daughter and a young woman who were occupying the house in Mrs. Melser’s absence.

Rainsand candidates visits are every day occurrence. Farmers are planting corn between showers. A Farmers’ Alliance was organized here last Tuesday evening with twenty-three charter members. Miss Ethie Fairchild is teaching a very successful subscription school with an enrollment of thirty pupils. W. C. Tyler, Jesse Tyler and Oscar Eldred are in Chicago, plying the hammer and saw. Rev. Lemuel Shortridge preached to a crowded house here Sunday. Wm. C. Ketner has a sale to day, preparatory to renfoving to his old home in Marion, this state. A private library has been establishedin our township, with twenty-two members and forty volumes. The young people also have an organization and are taking the regular reading course in the Young People’s Reading Circle work. We would like to hear from other localities on this subject.

Hon. S. P. Thompson was in town last Wednesday. Dr. L B. Washburn, our County Treasurer, was in town last Wednesday. School closes Friday afternoon. An account of the closing exercises will be given next week. Florence Hart and Lottie Coover returned Isat Saturday from a pleasant visit in Kankakee. Mr, and Mrs. Morey Hopkins, visited Charles Hopkins and family last Tuesday and Wednesday. Politics are lively over this way, but as the candidates .are all good men, it would not be fair to advocate the cause of any particular one. ——

Probably the two happiest peoShefiler. The imm&diato cause of th eir happinessNe tin *arrival-of a daughter, who came to them last Saturday. Many teachers and “would be” teachers are very much disappointed to learn that Prof. Dickerson has abandoned the idea of fielding a .summer Normal in this place. He. has received a very flattering offer from the Normal he has'conducted for u few years past and will go there soon after the close of the school here.

Some bad little boys went over to the. Maxwellfarm one Sunday afternoon and committed degradations that would put the lads in the Cannibal Islands in the back, ground. It is to be hoped that they will reform before this lawlessness becomes a fixed, habit. A certain class of writers, as well as a certain class of boys, make sneering remarks about Sunday schools and Sunday school boys, but it is certain that they had better have been there than maliciously destroying property.
