IMI.MOCIIATIC CAXlllllATK l'OK CON'OKKSS MAN AT-LAlttin. Hon. Mortimer F. Elliot is n tlescen- dant of 0110 of tlm pioneer anil staunch Ufinocrntio tnimlics 01 Tiosa eountv. Ho is the only son of Colonel Nathan iul A. Elliot, wlio was elcctetl by the Democrats a member of the Hoiiee of Kepiou'iitalivesi of I'eiinsvlvania and nerved with credit in the vear 1818. Mortimer was born in the township of Charleston, in the village of Cherry- Plats, JioKa county, la., bcptemlicr1 21th, 1842, and is therefore in tho fur-' tieth year of his age. He was raised upon a farm and educated in the com mon schools of his native township and at Alfred University, Alfred, Alleghe ny ceunty, N. Y. The work upon the farm, the pure mountain air, coupled with good habits, gave him a strong and sturdy constitution, a clear head and vigorous mind. He studied law with Hon. Stephen V. Wilson, and was1 admitted to practice at the Tioga coun ty bar in the year 18G1. At that time tho bar ot iioua coun ty was distinguished for its able prac titioners, among whom were Hon. Hen ry Sherwood, Hon. H. V. Williams,, Hon. Stephen 1. Wilson, Hon. John W. Guernsey, Hon. 15. 15. Strang, Hon. I. E. Smith, Hon. 0. H. Seymour, and it would seem that there was no loom for a young lawyer,or 110 lucrative prac tice at his command. He however opened an oflico nt Wellsbom, facing the public square, among these distin guished men, and began the p'"ictiee of his chosen profession. His clients were lew at Inst, but they lncieasetl rapidly as his course and manner of trying suits became known. His knowledge of law, his close application to business entrusted to hint and his power as an ndvocato before a jury, won tho conlidt'iico of tho people and gave hint a high standing at the bar, antl 111 tho year 1870 he was tho JJem ocrotio candidate for president judge of the 4th judicial district, composed of the counties of Tioga, Potter, Mc- Kean and Cameron, and although tho district was largely Republican, ho came near to gaining an election, re ducing the majority several thousand voles. In 1873 ho was elected to tho Con stitutional Convention and served with distinction, being tho choico of the young and progressive Democracy of his district. Amid the pressing carts of a large and sxtensivo practice al the several courts in Northern Pennsylva nia, tho Supremo Court of the State, and tho United States District and Cir cuit Courts, he has always cheerfully espoutied to the call ot Die public cith er 111 Northern Peiinsvlvniiia or South- ern New York, and has done yeoman and distinguished servico upon the stump. At a great mass meeting ol the lA'in- ocraey at Ehnira, when Gen. MeClellau was present, Elliot was literally carried upon the shoulders of his auditors, laving made a speech unexampled lor argument, logic and eloquence 111 the history of that campaign. At the great Hancock meeting at Corning, N, Y 11 Oetobar, 1880, where Col. John W. Forney, Hon. Darius A. Odeu and others spoke, Mr. Elliot made the speech 01 tho occasion, He is the pride of tho young Democracy, and has been justly called "The Little Giant of tho North.'' As a lawyer he is able and learned, and as an advocate ho has no superior in tho northern portion of tho State. Ho is a gentleman highly re spected by all parties for his sterling ntegrily, Ins legal and lorcnsio attain ments, and in his election the peoplu of tho State at largo may test assured that they will have a representative honest, capable and fearless, ono who knows the right and daie maintain it. Horn, raised and educated in a county which ias been lor the last twoniy-tivo years 11 a hopeless Democratic minority, his dcraooracy is clean cut, hut liberal, pro gressive, courageous, fair and honest, and his views well delined and estab lished, and no policy of mere expe diency will ever turn him from his pro gressive but sincere and straightfor ward political principles.- A Cheap and Simple Einedy for llliunu tism.

In no case was it neces sary to fast 111010 than ten days. Less positive results wero obtained in cases of chronio rliiimatism. Tho patientB wero nllowed to drink freely of cold water, or lemonade in inoderato ipian tities if they, preferred. No medicines wero given. Dr. Wood says that from the quick and almost invariably good results obtained by simpl-t abstinence front food in uioie thitii forty easts in his own practice, ho is inclined to be hove tint rhuiuatism is, nftiv all, only a phaso of Indmcstion. to bo cured bv giving complete and continued rest to nil ttio viscera. F. ELLIOT. Three line Young Men. A proud man was Mr. Abel Leonard proud of his houso and everything in it, proud of his elegant niid accomplish ed daughter, proud of his long estab lished business as a merchant. Abel Leonard has been heard to boast that ho had in his counting house the three finest young men in the city. There was his own ?0n Charley he was certainlya fine young man", and his father was moro than a little proud of liim. Then there was Evan Jones, tho head book-keeper. Certainly Mr. Evan Jones was a line young man. Thirdly, "a sort of head clerk and general manager, who mf.de himself felt everywhere, and of whom oven his employer was half inclined to stand in awe 'there was Walter Sterne, with an expussion of self-contained firmness about his full, solid looking lips that forbade any one denying that Walter Sterne was a Very fine young man. Three very fine young men were these, and undoubtedly Abel Leonard was justified in being proud of them ; but the time had come, in tho natural course of human events, when tho old gentleman must necessarily bo puz zled. For forty years ho had no partner in business, and for half that time ho had accustomed himself to look upon his daughter Hello as a girl ; but now two impoitant facts wero slowly dawning upon him. One was that ho must speedily assign tho chargo of his busi ness to younger and more active man agement ; and the other was. that two of his very fine young men were rival ing each other in well direct efforts to establish even a nearer connection with himself than that of partner in business. Abel Leonard had always pretended to keep a sharp eyo after his books and balances ; but of late years this had been little more than a pretence, until now that ho seriously contemplated a change in his arrangement ; he once more made a practical reality of his former examinations. No ono but himself knew this, however, for Abel Leonard was not a talkative man. Perhaps the old gentleman was not as quick at figures as he had oneo been and there were some accounts that puz zled him sadly. At all events ho went over them ngain and again. Still ho called no ono to his assistance though, ;m Charley was cashier, Evan Jones head book-keeper, and it was Walter Sterne's duty to go over things after them, ho could very easily have had everything explained. To be sure Walter had been absent for two or three days just before the worst of the puzzle came. That night Abel Leonard went homo with a clouded brow, and a good deal less pride than usual iu his heavy step. "Thero can bo no doubt of it 110 doubt of it whatever; there's a deficit of eight hundred in tho cash account, mid it was well coveted up too;falso additions, and what not; but they could not deceive old Abel. I wonder low long this thing has becu troinir on?" And then, in if somebody whispered to him thero came the thought of Wal ter Sterne's bank account, so very large for a young man with his salary and expenses. 1 lie next day, Abel Leonard sent lown woid that ho was ill, and did not make his appearanco on that or the day following, so that tho three fine young men had it all their own way. Tho second evening Walter Sterne came up to the house to mako 0110 of ins iiequent calls, lie was received as usual, made a good repoit of tho busi ness but hu seemed to have some thing heavy on his mind. Alter the talk with tho old L'entlo- man, thero followed a very interestinir call in tho parlor, and never beforo had Hello Leonard Btctned bo subdued 111 her manner or sosweetlv eiigaiiiiL'. To such an extent did her manner and tho half pleading expression of her face work upon tho already pretty well formed determination of her young friend, that tho recivt, which for a loinr tiiuo hud been only half a secret, forced its t ay to its lips 111 a rush ot earnest mil eloquent avowal. Hello bowed her face upon her hands for a moment, and then raised it. pale as a marble, but as firm. ".Mr. bterno must irivo tiiuo for con sideration. If ho will call again to morrow evening I will give him his an swer.'' Walter's fellow clerk was destined to receive a very similiar reply to a very similar question, only that Evan was put on somewhat indefinitely. Still later that same evening, two very tine young men wero walking down Hegent street, when ono said to another : "Evan, 1 can't go to tho old gentle, man for moro money just now have you any 10 spare T 'Not a penny. You know how uic iiiL-r, wu vo ueen 01 jato. "Can't you raiao some!' "Don't think I can. You know l'vo done a good deal for you already," said "Yes; but that will bo all right when jou marry Hello." ".est you must help 1110 thon repli Evan. "Why don't you propose!" "I tlltl Hint very thing this evening," 29. 1882 "You don't say bo I Whntluek !" "Good, I should think ; only alio has put 1110 on n wcck, ' ndded ISvan. "Oh, that s nothing. You couldn't have ojtpectcd an answer offhand. "Not from so proud a girl as Hello Leonard. Still, you can help mo." "twill. JJont bo afraid) Im not anxious for Waller Sterno ni brother in-law, I assure von.'' "Iln, ha I don't you worry yourself hooui. mat. And so they separated ; but the next morning, no sooner did Evan Jones reach tho warehouse 1 than Walter nail ed him aside for a privato consultation. hatever was its nature, even the countenance of Walter Sterno was un able to conceal an expiession af aston ishment and consternation, "Hut why did you not tell mo nt once 7 no asked. "I now your cast iron ways," replied Hvan, 'and I was afraid vou would tell the old gentleman, and that wouldn't tlo, you know. Walter Sterno was unusually busy with tho accounts that day, and in tho afternoon late, Abel Leonard came down in his carriage. Ho tumbled the books over, as usual but had littlo to say, and he really looked ill when ho started for home. Tho ride was not a lone one. but it seemed to have shaken all tho pride out of the fat littlo merchant. As ho entered the hull ho was met by Hello. "Father 1" "Tho very worst, Helle!" "How do you meant" "The additions and entries aro cor rected, and the cash is all straight again. "Hut how is that tho worst V "The corrections aro all in Walter Stern's own hand. He lias been alarm ed in someway, and has put the moucy back to save himself." "Oh father, isn't it terrible 1" "Indeed it is, Helle. And I loved that young man almost like a Bon. I'd have trusted him with all I was worth." And to tell tho truth, both father and daughter were thoroughly miser able. Hello especially looked forward with a nervous honor to tho fast ap proaching hour for Walter's call. At last the expected feet were on the doorstep, and never had ho looked so near the beau ideal of a "fine young man" in eyes that already swollen with tears, looked out at him, through the curtains. There was oven a look of prido and elation on Walter's fneo as ho entered the parlor, but his countc nance fell as ho cast his on tho face that came forward to meot him. "Miss Leonard " "Mr. Sterne " And for a few minutes neither of them could say more, and Walter's heart beat almost audibly. Their joint embarrassment was changed in its na ture by the entry of Abel Leonard "Walter Sterno I will save Hello tho trouble of giving you her answer. Does not your own conscience tell you what it ought to bo?" "My conscience 1 1 cannot compre hend you !" "Then I will say that I have ex amined tho book's.
