TOPICS OF TIIF. DAY. The American craze in England b reported to be more pronounced than is the English craze on this side of the Atlantic, and it is predicted that next spring America will draw off hosts oi English tourists from Switzerland. Mr. Marvin H. Bovee, of Wisconsin, who has considerable noteriety through his persistent efforts in many parts of the country toward the abol ishment of capital punishment, intends to visit the Legislatures of all South ern States during the winter, and dis cuss this question before those bodies. A verdict In the Superior Court at Augusta, Ga., giving damages to a father for injuries sustained ly a daughter fourteen years old, in the Augusta factory, from which injuries the child died, is regarded as settling a very important precedent, establish ing liability of manufacturing com panies to parents in damages for injur ies to minor children while at work. Miss Booth aud her companions, who were expelled from Switzerland, were enthusiastically received in I,on don on their return to that city. Fully fifteen thousand people attended the three great thanksgiving meetings held in Exeter Hall. In a speech on the occasion Miss Booth said that, at whatever risk, the Salvationists were determined to resume the fight for the redemption of Switzerland, and not only of Switzerland, but of France, Italy, Australia and America. Among the pleasant souvenirs of his visit to Washington, which Chief Justice Coleridge, < f Great Britain, will carry home with him, is a sonnet written by his great-uncle, the poet, in the album of an American lady more than half a century ago. The lady was Miss Barbour, a daughter of James Barbour, of Virginia, who was at that time United States Minister to Great Britain. The sonnet was writ ten on the eve of her return to Ameri ca, and has never been published. The new and thrifty town of Pull man, near Chicago, lies on a fiat prairie, and the problem of drainage, which is so difficult to solve in a great many places, had to be met in Pull man. The following is the one adopt ed, and it is said to be satisfactory in its workings and profitable in its re sults. Sewers are built to empty into a sunken tank, from which the sew age is pumped through a twenty-inch main to a farm three miles away. The system cost $80,000; the farm yields a profit of $5,500 a year. The New Orleans Exhibition, which is to be held in December, 1884, is rapidly taking shape. The preliminary arrangements have been perfected in nearly all the Southern States, as wel] as in Mexico and the principal governments of Central America. There is no reason why such an exhi bition should not be a great success in New Orleans. It is the largest city in the South, with many features which make it interesting for winter visitors. The jetties have given the city its anti-war position as the great commercial city of the South, and it is fitting that this should he celebrated by an exhibition of Southern products. Tea drinking was lately denounced in violent terms by an English clergy man at a meeting held to further the establishment of courses of instruc tion in practical cookery in the elementary schools. He said: "If 1 had my own way there would he much less tea drinking among people of all classes. Excessive tea drinking creates a generation of nervous, dis contented people, who axe for ever com plaining of the existing order of the universe, scolding their neighbors and sighing after the impossible. I sus. pectthat over-much tea drinking, by destroying the calmness of the nerves, is acting as a dangerous revolutionary force among us." One reason that so many men desert from the army—ls per cent a year, it is said—Secretary Lincoln thinks is due in a great measure to the fact that the enlisted men are employed most of the time not as soldiers but laborers, and, what makes it worse, without payment for their work. Their life is made unbearable by an unending round of hard work without compensa tion. This might be obviated in two ways—Congress might provide for a force of laborers, carpenters, etc., or the soldiers when so employed might be allowed extra duty pay. At present it is rather discouraging for an enlisted man to be employed for months at a time as a carpenter or blacksmith for about sl9 a month, counting in the cost of his rations, when he could make say S6O at the same business in civil life. The Cost of a Railroad Traiu. A railroad superintendent has given the San Francisco Call an estimate of the cost of an average train on a first class railroad ; For an express train, locomotive, $12,000 ; baggage car, $l - smoking car, $5,000; dining room car, $12,000 ; five first-class Pull mans, SIB,OOO each ; total, $120,000 The ordinary express train represents about $85,000. Some Pullman cars cost SBO,OOO each. The average value of a freight train is still greater than I.AIKSI NEWS.

Yet, dreary as it is, or uterus from the sea, it is really full of green pastures, on which feed wild cattle, the descendants of those brought in by Vancouver, and owned by ranch men, to the tune of ten and fifteen heads apiece, in runs of twenty miles long. It must have been sad to stand by and see a forest burned up like so many matches, and another with the trees snapped off at the surface of the fire-flood, the portion imbedded in tho lava being burned to dust, and leaving a series of pock-marks on the hardened surface. One night in 1852, it seemed as if a solitary star was shining on the Mauna Loa, at a spot afterward found to be four thousand feet below the summit. After the second evening it seemed to die away, but soon burst out again with amazing splendor, no longer a star, but a column of fire seven hundred feet high by angular measurement, and from two hundred to three hundred feet broad, which was visible one hundred miles off, and the ashes and chared leaves from which, covered the docks of approach ing ships. The lava stream was visi ble thirty miles off; and in twenty days there had been thrown up a cone a mile round at the base and four hun dred feet high, which is standing to this day. The weird beauty of the color-changes was something past be lief. Issuing white-hot from the cra ter, the lava changed first to light, then to deep red, then to glossy gray, with shining black patches, every tint intermingled in constant movement, and a very cataract of sparks falling from the fire pillar. In 1855 there was a yet greater erup tion, from |which the town of Hilo narrowly escaped. One strange episode was when a cataract of lava poured over a precipice into a very deep rock basin, in which a big ship might have floated. The water was .all driven off in steam, the basin filled up, and the precipice changed into a glently slop ing plane. Months after it was a hid eous sight to see this lava stream, alxmt fifty miles from its source, slug gishly twisting about in vast coils, whose lustrous metallic surface was seamed with red, showing the uncooled stream below, while every now and then the glistening crust which hung over this fire-stream caved in just as "cat's ice" breaks and shows the water underneath it. Legitimate Work. Talking about laboring women, 1 wish it were in my power to persuado young girls who wonder what they shall do to earn their living, that it is really letter to choose some business that is in the line of a woman's natu ral work. There is a great repugnance at the thought of being a servant, but a girl is no less a servant to the man who owns the shop where she stands all day behind the counter than she is where she waits ujHn the table or cooks the dinner in a pleasant house; and to my mind there would not be a minute's question between the two ways of going out to service. The wages are better, the home is better, the freedom and liberty are double in one what they are in the other. If, instead of the sham service that is given by ignorant and really overpaid servants to-day, sensible New England girls who are anxious to be taking care of themselves and earning good wages would fit themselves at the cooking schools, or any way they found availa ble, they would not long wait for em ployment and would be valued im mensely by their employers. When one realizes how hard it is to find good women for every kind of work in our houses, and what prices many rich peo ple are more than willing to pay if they can be well suited, it is a wonder more girls are not ready to seize the chances. It is because such work has been almost always so carelessly and badly done, that it has fallen into dis repute, and the doers of it have taken such low rank. Nobody takes the trouble to fit herself properly, but women trust to being taught and find ing out their duties after they assume such positions, not before. The MPBHOW* of Maryland. SPRINGFIELD, PRINCE GEORGE'S Co., MD. —Air. Chas. G, Addison, of the above named place, states: "I sprained my right knee causing intense suffering, and the use of crutches for several weeks. I found no relief in other remedies and finally tried the miracle of cure, St. Jacob's Oil. In a short time I could bend my knee— which was as stiff as an iron rod, — laying aside my crutches and was able to walk as well as ever. Avoid Wrinkles. A wrinkle, once made, is indelible; it has come to stay. There is no such thing as wiping out wrinkles. In men they are often honorable evidence of hard mental labor; in women they are usually evidence of coming age, al though care and suffering have much to do with them. Sometimes fair fore heads are prematurely wrinkled from a nervous habit of elevating the eye brows, and from a too great and too constant pressure of the pillow on one or both sides of the head while sleep ing. And just here comes a fact worth remembering. If the forehead has es caped wrinkles, crow's feet are prema turely seen about the corners of the eyes. We all see the crow's feet in Uien and women whose brows are smooth and young looking. They are the result of sleeping on the right and left sides. The pressure upon the temple and cheek leaves wrinkles at the corners and underneath the eyes which disappear in a few hours, but finally become so fixed that neither hours nor ablutions will abate them. An Only Daughter Cured of Consumption. When death was hourly expected, all remedies having failed, and Dr. H. James was experimenting with the many herbs of Calcutta, he accidentally made a preparation which cured his only child of consumption. His child is now in this country and enjoying the best of health. He has proved to the world that consumption can be positively and per manently cured. The doctor now gives this recipe free, only asking two 2-cent stamps to pay expenses. The herb also cures night sweats, nausea at the stomach, and will break up a fresh cold in twenty four hours.

[Rochroter Democrat ani Chronielt], WP published In our local columns yester day morning a significant letter from a gen tleman known personally or by reputation to nearly every person in the land. We have received a number of letters 'protesting against the u e of our columns for such "pal pable frauds and misrepresentations;" there lore, to oonflrm beyond a doubt the authen tlcity of the letter, and the genuineness of Its sentiments, a reporter of this paper was commissioned to ascertain all the possible facts in the matter. Accordingly he visited Clifton Bprtngs, saw the author of the letter, and with the following result: l>r. Henry Foster, the gentleman In quee tlon, is (W or fli years of ago and has an ex tremely cordial manner. He presides as su perintendent oyer the celebrated sanitarium which accommodates over five hundred f;uets and in unquestionably the leading lealth r>sort of the country.

Drawing Ih© morning Democrat ami Chronicle from his pocket, the reporter re market!: "Doctor, that letter of yours has created a good deal of talk, and many of our readers Ims questioned its authenticity." "To what do you refer," remarked the doc tor. "Have you not seen the paper ?*' "Yes, but 1 have not had time to read It yet." The reporter thereupon show, d him the letter, which was as follows; CLIKTON SPRINGS SANITARICM CO., 1 CI.UTON SPRINGS, N.

Yours truly, [Signed] HENRY FOSTER, M. D. "I do not see why anybody should be skep tical concerning that letter," remarked the doctor. "isn't it unusual for a physician of your standing nnl influence to commend a pro prietary preparation ( "1 don't know how it may be with others,but in this institution we allow no person to die tnte to us went we shall use. Our purpo eis to cur" the sic!*, and lor that work we use anything we kn >w to be valuable. Because 1 know Warner's Safe Cure is a very valua ble preparation, 1 commend it. As its power is manifested under my use, so shall I aid to the complete no s of my commendation." "Have you ever analyzed it, doctorf" "We always analyze before we try any preparation of which we do not know the constltuenta. But analysis, you know, only gives the elements; it does not give the all im portant proportions. The remarkable power of Warner's Fafe Cure undoubtedly consists in the proportions according to which itse'e ments are mixed." While there may be a thousand retnedie? made of the same ele monts. unless they are put together in proper proportions they are worthless as kidney and liver prej ai at ions. " I hope some day to me?t Mr. Warner per aonally, and extend fuller cong atulations to him on the excellence of his preparations. I have heard much of him as the founder of the Warner Observat ry. and as a man of large benevolence. Th- d high character of the man himself gave assurance to me in the first place that he would not put a remedy upon the market that was not trustworthy; and it was a source of a good dial of gratifi cation to me to find out by actual experiment that the remedy it-elf sustaine 1 my impres sions." The conclusion reached by Dr. Foster is precisely the same found I y Dr. Dio Lewis Dr. Bolert A. Gunn, ex r-ut gcon-General Gallagher and others, and f roves beyond a doubt the great ellicacy of the remedy which lms awakened so much attention in the land and res uctl so many men. women and chil dren from disease and death.

Happening to run across the tes timony of a Mrs. Dawloy, who had been cured of similar sickness by using Hunt's Remedy, we at onco procured s botllo of it, and com menced giving it as directed. After using it threo days she was so far improved that, she could get from her bed to her chair without assistance (a circumstance that had not hap pened for months). Previous to taking it she wag troubled more or less with short breath, requiring a continuous fanning io keep her alive. This gradually improved as we continued the use of Hunt's Remt dy, and on the fourth bottle she was able to set np all day. She was bloated terribly in both limbs and body upward to the lungs. The tenth day the bloating left her bowels, end now she is not swollen above the knees. Her kidneys were very bad at the time, discharges being of a bloody character and emitting a sicken ing odor. I can say that the change in her case has been wonderful, and Hunt's Remedy has worked a miraele in her." Nntlsfnctory Evidence. J. W.

Some is bad because it contains impurities. Some men have such bad blood that the wonder is it does not poison the mosquitoes who come to bite them. The rich red color of good blood is owing to the iron which is present. Blood which has not enough iron in it is always unsatisfactory. The per son in whose veins it circulates cannot be said to enjoy good health. The efforts of expert chemists to produce a preparation of iron which can be assimilated with the blood ha rt resulted in that perfect preparation which is an important part of Brown's Iron Bitters. It is the only one which freely enters into the blood. It is the only one which accomplished the desired good. ...
