CruM, Crtml To Hu victims Is that inexorable foe to humaa Peace, that destroyer of rest and frequent terruination of human life—rheumatism. Like many another physical ill, it is easily remediable at the outset with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which expels the rheumatic virus from the blood through the kidneys. There exists the amplest evidence to prove that in cases that have resisted other treatment the Bitters has produced thorough and permanent results. But to temporize with this malady is folly. Attack it at once with the Bitters and it may be nipped in the bud. When mature it is the most obstinate of complaints. Kidney trouble, dyspepsia, neuralgia, Incipient gout, constipation, malaria and liver complaint beat a hasty retreat when the Bitters is summoned to the rescue. A wineglassful three times a day. The Crnelfix of Mary Stuart. When Mary Queen of Scots, on Feb. 18, 1587, was led to the scaffold she held in her hands a precious crucifix, which has charged hands many a time since that date. The last owner of the greatly esteemed relic was the German poetess, Countess Hahn-Hahn, who left it at her death to the cathedral in the city of Mayence, where it has lately been deposited. It is no longer perfect, a number of small pieces having been broken off and lost, but the genuineness of the relic is proved beyond the possi« bility of a doubt. A South American New Jersey.

The carpets have been taken up and aired, the furniture completely hidden with white linen, and I over the huge chandeliers folds of netting hang to protect them during the hot : weather. At the War Department, As--1 Bistant Secretary Grant presided at the I head of the department, Secretary Elkins having gone to Deer Park to visit i his family. The affairs of the navy are I likewise looked after by the Assistant I Secretary in the absence of Secretary I Tracy, who is north, while Attorney | General Miller, Postmaster General Wanamaker, Secretary Noble, and Secretary Rusk are all away. The warm weather has had the effect of causing the different departments to be closed an hour earlier than usual, and altogether the withdrawal of Congress, the President and his Cabinet has caused the city i to assume an air of dullness so far as concerns official business. Si iteHiiien in 1 heir Cup< Washington was all stirred up over the charges made by Mr. Watson shortly j before the adjournment of Congress, and, although the report of the investi- ! gating committee brought out nothing, the allegations made continue to furnish subject matter for gossip. j A hundred years ago a man would have got merrily laughed at for staggering into Congress and making a ; maudlin effort at oratory, and a few would have considered it really disreputable, but no newspaper would have thought it worth mentioning and no coinmitt e would have investigated it. When half of the men in the land oc- I casibnally or frequently got drunk a) sporadic case of tipsiness caused no comment. The fuss that is made over a transient and doubtful lapse from temperance on the part of three or four members is a very high tribute to the general sobriety

of this Congress. S nee the close of the ■war for the Union drunkenness has become, for the first time in the history of ■ the human race, thoroughly disreputable, not mly in Congress but in all public bodies and in society everywhere. I Has there been a scandalous exhibition of drunkenness in TV ashington in a year , jM^^^vell-knowni n a n ? city inebriety was comruoii^TJl^W quet in his honor was held at the National Hotel; speeches were made by Cass, Webster, Shields, Sewaid and others, and several prominent guests I got into such a condition that they had ;to be helped away from the table. The ; great Magyar and his suite were carried back to the Metropolitan (only six doors distant) in carriages, but one was so helpless that he tumbled into the “bridal j bed” with his boots on, and refused to be disturbed till morning.

There was more intemperance in the ' Senate in 1804 than there is to-day, but it brought to the bar and tried for “habitual drunkenness and profanity on I the bench” one of the United States i judges, and the man was convicted. The city was a' dreary mudhole then, ! full of ague and monotonous misery, and there is no reason to marvel that Congressmen, when they left their unfinished quarters, drank deeply, bet | heavily, and amused themselves with I dog fights and’cock fights. There was ! not only bad rum in those days, but there was plenty of rough-apd-tumble prize fighting, in which men lost their eyes and noses. A tall gallows appropriately stood at the foot of Capitol Hill. Il Wan l>illerent Then. We have fallen on different times, indeed, when a man cannot get drunk in public or be seen emerging from a gambling saloon without injury to his reputation and credit. Different, indeed, was it in the good old heyday of “Bllfii and Black George,” when Pendleton kept open his “palace of fortune* on the avenue and presided at a sumptuous dinner every day at 5 in full dress and surrounded by twenty or thirty members of the House and Senate, cabinet ministers, generals, diplomats and judges, attracted by the pleasures of the duplex table, the faro table immediately succeeding th ) dinner table. The cuisine was presided over by an artist. The wines were bought at auction when bankrupt German dukes sacrificed their cellars. Everything was luxurious and scores of distinguished gamesters chased the ivory chips around the green baize till the morning came . in with its glow. Humphrey Marshall, I being appointed Minister to China in 1 1852, dropped into Pendleton’s the night I before he started to play “one farewell • game, ” and he lost all the money he possessed, hie entire outfit, and six months’ stay in advance—and then Pendleton ent him money enough to carry him to the flowery kingdom, where he doubt- . less taught the funny game to the al-mond-eyed celestials. And when the . good Pendleton died the Mayor of . Washington and Senate and members • bore his pall, and Presi ent Buchanan wept at his funeral. Ar 1 there was no ' scandal about it, and no reporters - watched, as they now would, to see who I went in and out at Pendleton’s. Ah' Times have changed! Neutral spirits, which is really alcohol diluted, is an excellent fluid for bathing the poor, tired frame before settling the invalid for the night. It is esI pecially grateful to one who is restless, I for it does not possess the burning I properties of bay rum.

Some of the districts were not represented and so reported no representa- | tion on the committee. There was no I reference made to fusion by any of the ; speakers, except in a letter from Perry ; Engle of Jasper County, who could not ; be present, but advised them to “keep I in the^middle of the road” and avoid all ■ combinations. This advice was loudly ■ cheered. The convention then ad- ’ journed until 2 p. m. In the afternoon the principal speaker ' was ex-Chief Justice C. C. Cole of Des . Moines, who said that he had joined the ■ new party because he believed in free j silver and was sound on other issues. ' J. R. Sovereign, labor commissioner, in 1 his speech declared he was willing to ■ give 99 cents for every 68-cent silver ’ dollar they would offer him. ! 1 The report of the Committee on Cre- i dentials showed there wore 342 dele- i gates in attendance, the afternoon trains * having brought in large numbes.

the Committee on Finance, well in- ; formed on financial matters. Senator Jones is also a leading mem- ■ ber of the Finance Committee of the - Senate and has given special study to \ ’ the silver question. He has been noted for his speeches on financial issues. Mr. McCreary is a member of the House of Representatives, formerly Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs. He introduced in the House the bill provid ng for the present in- ; ternational monetai y conference and has taken special interest in the subject. Mr. Cannon has for years taken a leading part in financial operations in New York; was formerly Comptroller of the Currency, and is now president of the Chase National Bank of Chicago. Mr. Walker is a well-known writer on economic questions. He has been superintendent of the census, and was a member of the International Monetary j Conference held at Paris in 1878. He is i President of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; President of the American Statistical Society and honorary fellow of the Royal Statistical So- i ciety of London. The city where the confer nee will be ; held has not been named yet, but it is i probable that either Geneva, Berlin or । , Paris will be selected. The date has | । not been fixed. This anti That.

Cut glass will not look clear unless washed in very hot water, but does not require soap. If it is in any way blurred or tarnished it must be cleaned with a
