TOPICS OF THE DAT.
The immense crematory in Home is
in almost daily use. Cremation is dai
ly becoming more popular, and bids
fair soon to dispose of more corpses in
the Italian capital than old-fashioned
burial.
The real cost of the enormous in
crease in pension payments is brought
out in the statement that they will
equal this year "the earnings of 1,000,
000 laboring men for 100 day." The
su m d isbu rsed—sl,ooo,oo* I—amounts
to nearly one-half the entire expenses
of the government.
"The fact is," says the St. Louis
Globe-Democi'af "the average tea-drin
ker does not know a genuine, pure and
line article from poor, adulterated, and
cooked-over leaves. The American
taste for tea has become vitiated. So
has our taste for coffee. The effective
ness of the inspection law may there
fore be doubted."
It is stated that Senator Edmunds
will, at the next session of Congress,
introduce a government postal tele
graph bill, and ask for its immediate
consideration. The object will be the
establishment of a system of govern
ment telegraph lines for the transmis
sion of private messages at much re
duced rates, as compared with those
now charged.
There is a society for the preven
tion of blindness in England. It. is
calculated that blindness annually costs
Europe no less a sum than £'7,000,000,
and England alone no less than £BOO,-
000; so that by removing the causes
not only will a large amount of acute
suffering, as well as deprivation from
the pleasure of sight, be prevented, but
a great financial gain will result. As
yet, the operations of the society have
been mainly contined to London, but
the offer of a substantial prize for the
bast essay on the causes of blindness
and the most practical means of pre
venting it will doubtless lead to the
dissemination of much valuable infor
mation on the subject.
The National Yellowstone park em
braces in its limits 3,575 square miles
—more territory than Rhode Island
and Delaware combined. It is sixty
live miles wide and sixty-five long.
It lies mainly in the northwestern cor
ner of Wyoming territory, but includes
a thin strip of Idaho on the west and
Montano on the west and north. The
body of it is between 110 degrees and
111 degrees west longitude, and 45 de
grees north latitude. The lowest ele
vation in the park is 6,000 feet above
sea-level, and its highest (mountain
peak) from 10,000 to 12,000 feet It
is, therefore, an immense table-land,
with a surface broken into mountain
ranges, valleys, etc.
In the spring of 1880 the ground
upon which Albuquerque, New Mexico
now stands was a marsh inteisected by
irrigating ditches. To-day there stands
on this ground a bustling city of over
9,000 people. It is in Bernalillo coun
ty, about 950 miles from Kansas City,
and is the eastern terminus of the At
lantic and Pacific railroad. The city is
named in honor of the Duke of Albu
querque, and the old town, old Albu
querque, situated about one mile and a
half distant, was one of the early Span
ish settlements. The proper pronun
ciation is Albukerkay, but the natives
and the people of this part of the coun
try call it Albukirk. No town in the
West, except Leadville, has developed
more rapidly. The county has 3,000,-
000 sheep, and in 1882 Albuquerque
shipped 2,500,000 pounds of wool.
The proposed cotton exposition in
New Orleans in 1884 gives promise of
large success. The amount proposed
to be raised as a fund for the exposi
tion is $550,000. Of this amount
$250,000 has been already subscribed
in the north, and New Orleans has
subscribed $140,000, and proposes to
raise the remaining sum of SIOO,OOO
- Burke, of the Times-Democrat,
has been chosen director-general and
has gone vigorously to work. It is
proposed to have complete exhibits of
the Latin-American nations. The
president of Honduras, who has been
on a visit to this country, has tendered
to the exposition the use of his valua
ble archaeological specimens, other res
idents of Central and South American
states have expressed great interest
and promised needful aid.
A Frnitless Search.
One day there visited Buddha a wo
man who had lost her only child.
Wild with grief she begged the proph
et to give back the little one to life.
He looked at her tenderly for a long
while, and then said, "Co, my daugh
ter, bring me a mustard seed from a
house in which death had never enter
ed, and I will grant thy wish." The
woman at once began her search. She
went from house to house, saying,
"Grant me, kind people, a mustard
seed for the prophet to bring back my
child to me." And when they had
granted her request she asked, "Are
you all here around the hearth—father
mother, children none missing ?"
But the people shook their heads with
sighs and looks of sadness; and far and
wide as she wandered there always
was a vacant chair by the hearth. Then
gradually, as she passed on, the waves
of her grief subsided before the sight
of sorrow everywhere; and her heart,
ceasing to be occupied with its own
selfish grief, flowed out in strong
yearnings of sympathy with the world
wide suffering. Tears of anguish were
changed to tears of pity, passion melt
ed into compassion; she forgot her own
sorrow in looking upon that of others,
and in losing herself for others' good
she really found herself.
THE FAMILY DOCTOR.
Hot Hltk an n Stimulant.
Of hot milk as a stimulant the Medi
cal Fccord says: "Milk heated too
much above 100 degrees Fahrenheit
loses for a time a degree of its sweet
ness and density. No one who, fa
tigued by over-exertion of body and
mind, has ever experienced the reviv
ing influence of a tumbler of this bev
erage, heated as hot as it can be sip
ped, will willingly forego a resort to it
because of its being rendered some
what less acceptable to the palate.
The promptness with which its cordial
influence is felt is indeed surprising,
some portion of it seems to be digested
end appropriated almost immediately,
and many who now fancy that they
need alcoholic stimulants when ex
hausted by fatigue, will find in this
ample draught an equivalent that w ill
be abundantly satisfying and far more
enduring in its effects."
Cold Feet.
What a common complaint this is
says the Family Physician, and yet no
one seems to know anything about it.
You suffer from it for years, and you
don't go to a doctor, or if you do, you
derive very little benefit from his ad
vice. Some people suffer from it at
night only, while others are troubled
with it in the daytime as well. It oc
curs most frequently in women, but
still you often hear men complain of
it. We believe that the best remedy is
hyphosphite of lime in one or two
grain doses twice a day. This is soluble
in water, and should be taken in the
form of a mixture, nothing else being
put with it, with the exception, if you
like, of a tea-spoonful of syrup, to
make it more palatable, although it is
by no no means disagreeable by itself.
Another good remedy is nux vomica—
five drops of the tincture in a little
water three or four times day. It is
highly recommended, and you may
hope for great things from it. Then
your general health. It is probable
that you are below par somehow or
other, although we must admit that
it does not follow of necessity. If you
feel generally out of sorts, and your
appetite is poor, quinine will do you
good. If you are pale and amende,
von must put your faith in iron.
Cod-liver oil is an excellent remedy for
improving the general nutrition; many
people feel quite in a glow after each
dose.
PEARLS OF THOUGHT.
The right of commanding is the
fruit of labor*, the price of courage.
Man cannot dream himself into a
noble character; he must achieve it by
diligent effort.
If we find no fault ourselves, we
should not take pleasure in observing
those of others.
Those who have no patience of their
own forget what demand they make
on that of others.
There is no evil we cannot either
face or fly from, but the consciousness
of duty disregarded.
More helpful than all wisdom is one
draught of simple human pity that
will not forsake us.
Let friendship creep gently to a
hight; if it rush to it, it may soon
run itself out of breath.
A firm faith is the best divinity; a
good life the best philosophy; a clear
conscience the best law; honesty the
best policy, and temperance the best
physic.
The law of the harvest is to read
more than you sow. Sow an act and
you reap a habit; sow a habit and you
reap a character; sow a character and
you reap a destiny.
The Grave of Mary Washington.
A Fredericksburg, Va., letter to the
Richmond Dispatch says: .Tust above
the plain in the suburbs of Fredericks
burg, is the grave of Mary Washington,
marked now by an unfinished marble
monument. It is strange that the
tomb of the mother of the Father of
His Country should be allowed to stand
a monument to the lack of patriotism
of his countrymen. Worse still, it has
been shamefully defaced by the hands
of the vandal. Its sides have been
marred by bullets, and the pretty
smooth face of the monument peppered
by the shot of thoughtless sportsmen.
No railing or enclosure of any sort
protects the last resting place of this
great and good woman, and yesterday
the unthinking excursionist hid him
self under the shadow of the monu
ment, ate his snack and desecrated the
sacred place by leaving the rinds of
watermelons and the refuse of the re
past lying loosely around the tomb.
The monument was undertaken in
1830 by a patriotic gentleman of Fred
ericksburg, who had completed it with
the exception of the large pyramidal
shaft, which to-day lies half imbedded
in the ground a few yards from the
grave.

see, gentlemen, that the enforcement of this
law would prevent many of the unseemly
shooting mntches which usually follow these

A large number of people seem to
fancy, when paying a bill, that they
are conferring a gre:)t favor upon the
man who has entrusted his goods to
their home for weeks and even months.
They act as if they had received actu
ally nothing in return, and were sim
ply doing a work of charity. The man
who buys commodities of any kind
usually does so of his own accord; or
dinariiy there is nothing compulsory
about the transaction, lie makes his
purchase and gets the worth of his
money, presumably, in goods of what
ever kind. This places buyer and sel
ler on an equality. If the buyer could
make a bettor bargain ®lsc\, acre, very
likely he would do it- for in trade,
when dollars and cents are involved,
friendship doesn't count for much.
I'eoplo go where they can get the most
for their money. Having done so, the
seller confers a favor upon the buyer,
at least equal to that which the former
receives in payment of his bill. Then
why should a collector be subjected to
so much discourtesy? A well-bred
man, one who has a proper apprecia
tion of what is due to others, is never
guilty of such impoliteness. The col
lector w ho calls for his money is treat
ed with as much respect and consider
ation as is shown the buyer when lie
makes purchases, This deportment
should be universal, and the man who
departs from it, and who pays the
money he honestly owes grudgingly
and with all marked expressions of ill
will toward the receiving party, is
lacking in one ol the most important
essentials of fair and square manliness,
and more than that, in business tact.

I have been troubled for oversix yearn with
a severe kidney c >mi laint, a!so a weakness
of the urinary organs, with Its attendant
troubles. My water needed constant atten
tion. none dayn as many an twenty times
with severe pains in the bladder, aa well as
in the hack and loins. At times I pas tod a
limited quantity of urine, highly colored wi'h
unnatural heat and sediment; frequently
evacua'ions would be very painful. I con
cluded that I must do something for it, fe -r
--ing that mo*e serious trouble would follow.

There are innumerable instances where cures hsve
been effected by Rosadalta for all diseases of the
blood, when they had been given over by their physi
cians. It is one of the best remedies ever offered to
the public, aud as it is prepared with the greatest care
as a specific for certain diseases, it is no wonder that
it should be more effectual than hastily written and
rareiossly prepared prwriptiuiui made by iucoinpe
tent physicians. Take this medicine for all disor
ders arising from impure blood. It is indorsed by
leading professional men as well as by eminent
Ibj s ciaus and others. Try it.

The above Is a good likeness of Mrs. T.vdla E. Pinto
liarn, of Lynn. Mass., who above all other human beings
may be truthfully called the ' Pear Friend of Woman,"
ta some of her correspondents lovo to coll her. She
1, eealously devoted to her work, which is the out com®
<1 a life ludy, and Is obliged tcv keep six lady
f.-sistants. to help her answer the largo correspondence
srhieh daily pours in upon her, each bearing its special
leirden of suffering, or Joy at release from it Her
Vegetable Compound is a medicine for (rood and no*
vil pu-poses. I have personally Investigated It and
•m satisfied of the truth of this.
On ac 'ount o? lt.vprovenmerits.lt Is recommended
•nd by tho best physicians in tho country.
One says: "It works like a charm and saves much
l-ntn. It will euro entirely tho worst form of falling
< f the uterus, Lcucorrhoea, irregular and painful
liens*ruxtlon,all Ovarian Troubles, Inflammation and
Ulceration, Flooding*, all Displacements and the con
sequent tpinal weakness, and Is especially adapted to
the Change of Ufa."
It p-rmeates every portion of the system, and gives
rw life and vigor. It removes fointnesa, flatulency,
destroys all craving for stimulants, and relieves weak
ric3s of the stomach. It cures Bloating. Headaches,
LYrvous Prostration, General Debility, Sleeplessness,
Depression and Indigestion. That feeling of bearing
down, causing pain, weight and backache, la always
permanently cured by It* use. It will at all t lines, and
under all circumstances, act In harmony with the law
that governs the female system.
It costs only fl. per lot tie or six for $5., and is sold by
druggists. Any advice required as to special cases, and
the names of many who have beyn restored to perfect
health by the use of the Vegetable Compound, can be
obtained by addressing Mrs. P., with itamp for reply,
at her home In Lynn, Mass.
For Kidn- y Complaint of either sex this compound Is
unsurpassed aa abunflant testimonials show.
*' Mra rinkham's Liver Pills," says one writer, "are
the best in the world for the cure of Constipation,
Jtilionsncss and Torpidity of the liver. Her Blood
Purifier works wond<*rs In its special line and bid* fair
to equal the Compound in its popularity.
All must respect her as an Angel of Mercy whose sole
ambition is to do good to other*.
