    THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBU11G, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA.
Excitement Unabated.
MOOt' THAT THAT HIYSICIAN's TKIIIHUtK
CONFESSION IS Tnirn.
Cleveland, O., Jferald.
Yesterday and the day beforo wo
copied Into our columns from tliu llo
chcator, N. Y., J)emocrat and CVo.
iclc, a romarkablo statement, mado by
J. B. Ilenion, M. 1)., a gentleman who
is well known in this city. In that
article Dr. Ilonion recounted a wondet
ful eiiperionco which befell him, and
the next day wo published from the
name paper n second article, giving a
account of the cxoilement in Rochester
and elsewhere, caused by Dr. Ileulon's
statement. It is doubtful if any two
articles were ever published which
caused greater comraotlou both among
professionals and laymen.
Since the publication of these two
articles, having been besieged with
letters of inquiry, wo sent a communi
cation to Dr. Honlo.i and also to II. II.
VVaruer it Co., asking if any proof
could bo given, and hero it is:
Gknti.emkn: I owe my lifo and
present health wholly to the power of
Warner's Safe Cure, which snatched
ma from the very brink of tho grave.
It is not surprising that peoplo should
qne9tlon tho statement 1 made (winch
is trim in overy respect) for my recov
ery was as great a marvel to myself,
as to my physicians, and frieudtf.
J. B. Hr-NiON, M. D.
ItociiKSTKii, N. Y., Jan 21.
Sirs: The best proof we can give
you that the statements made by Dr.
I lemon are entirely true, nnd would
not have been published unless strictly
so, is the following testimonial from
the best citizens of Rochester, and a
Card published by Itev. Dr. Footo.
II. II. Wauneu & Co.
To Whom it May Concern:
We are personally or by reputation
acquainted with Dr. Heniou, and wo
believe ho would publish no statement
not literally true. We aro also person
ally or bv reputation well acquainted
with II. II. Warner fc Co., proprietors
of Warner's Safe Cure, (by winch Dr.
Ilenion says ho was cured) whoso com
mercial and personal standing in this
community aro of the highest order,
and we believe that they would not
publish any statements which were not
literally and Btrictly true in every par
ticular. C. K. Pahsons, Mayor of Roches

Advertiser.)

To the Editor of the Living Church,
Chicago, 111.
. There was published in the Ro
chester (N. Y Democrat and Chron
icle of the 31st of December, a state
ment made by J. B. Henion, M. D.,
narrating how he had been cured of
Rright's disease of the kidneys, almost
in its last stages, by the use of Warn
er's Safe Cure. I was referred to in
that statement, as having recommend
ed and urged Dr. Henion to try the
remedy, which he did, and was cured.
Tbe statement of Dr. Ilenion is true,
so far a) it concerns myself, and I be
lieve it to be true in all other respects,
lie was a parishioner of mino and 1
visited him in his sickness. I urged
him to tako the medicine and would do
tbe same again to any one who was,
troubled with a disease of the kidneys
and liver. Israel Foote, (D. D)

pal Church.

If seems impassible to doubt further
in tho faco of such conclusive proof.
The Color of the Eye,
Somo curious researches have recent
lv been undertaken by Swiss and
Swedish physicians on the color of tho
eye, but without any (apparent practi
cal purpose. For conveuienco all eyes
were divided into blue or brown, the
various shades of gray eyes being clas
sified according to the prominence of
blue or brown in their color. Some of
the conclusions drawn from a great
many observations are these : That
women with brown eyes have bettor
prospects of marriugo than thoso with
blue ; that the average number of
children is greater witli parents whoso
eyoi are dissimilar in color than wiili
those whoso eyes are similar. In chil
dren both of whoso parents have blue
eyes 93 per cent, inherit bluo eyes; but
in children both of whose parents have
brown eyes only 80 per cent, have
brown eyes. The above results were
reached in Switzerland. In Svedeu
the discoveries were not quite tho same.
The women with brown oyes are more
numerous than the men with brown
eyes, but brown eyes aro apparently
increasing there, as in Switzerland.

"There mo no people, excepting plains
niDii tho skirmishers oer tho wiltl
country of tho west win) llvo as hard
nlifons circus employes, both perform
ers ami workmen. Their lifo U not ns
hard now, it it true, as it was some
years ago, excepting with tho snuill
concerns. They aro tho 'wagon
shows' thai travel through tho sninll
towns. Hut evon with tho hig con
cerns that travel by train it it hard
enough now.
''Tako thocao of a wagon alio
thnt has to travel thirty miles after w
night performance; to get to tho next
town, whero a street procession is to
bo mado lu thu forenoon. Tho work
men, canvassmen nnd the liko havo to
take breakfast at 1 1 o'clock at night.
Then they tet no meal till dinner.afier
tho procession, say nl noon. Where
over thoy are tho work must bo at
tended to first, nnd catiim is a second
consideration. With tlio performer,
gymnasts, riders, clowns nnd thu like
it is not so bad. Thoy get better pay
and better food. As a rule thoy avi
on tho best food there is to be bad
whero they happen to lie, nnd they
tako a great deal of it. .Most of then'
aro grtat beef cateis, and aro not very
particular whether the meat is old ur
hot so long at it is good and plenty.
Thoy aro very particular, however,
about cleanliness. I havo seen twenty
or thirty of them get up and leave
tho table because tho tablecloth was
dirty j and when thoy want a meal
they want it, and will havo it. I havo
often Been them ! five n hotel whtro
thoy would have id w.iit fifteen min
utes for a dim.er thtit was paid for,
and go to a restaurant where they
have to buy another. Thoy w-m't eat
unless they are hungry ; but thoy aro
always hungry after a night perform
ance, and will not go to bed without a
hearty supper. They say they can't
sleep if thoy aro imply.
"Ono thing that is peculiar about
them is that they do not take incdictt e,
and they ato rtmitkably healthy.
When they are out uf sorts they ditt
themselves, each one according to his
own ideas, but 1 don't think 1 ever saw
51) worth of medicine around the cir
qus in all tho years I havo been in thb
business. Yes, they drink. Not to
excess, but neatly all of them drink
when they feel liko it. Thny never
drink, howexur, beforo performing.
Thoy aro very careful of themstlves.
They have to be or they would not
last long.
"As a matter of course, with their
irregular habits, they are, in a terlain
sense, extravagant. Their extrava
gance, however, is mainly in tint mat
ter of eating. Experience) leaches
them very soon, if their own sense
docs not at first, that they niii.-t, taku
tho very best possible euro of them
nelvos physi"ally. and that good eating
is a primary consideration."
There has been in late years a vast
improvement in all departments of tho
traveling circus, and in nothing has
this been nioio observable, to those in
the business, than in tho provisions
made for tho henllh and comfort of
tho employes. A good chief cook with
a circus will get as good a salary as a
first class performer, and has to earn
it.

A slinil.'.f Htato of things exiets in
Ainericit. Tlio coiintiy U continually
(leiilt'li'd for the questionable ntlvnn
Inge of llio cities. Only In tho Fnr
West, where fanning lands ai-d cheap,
is theic a great giovvlh of tho ngn
eiillnrnl popul ution, and that is chiclly
from foiilitii iniinigiation.
Tlio almost ttniversal tendency t f
men lo desert thu country nnd moio
into the cities is not 11 healthful sign.
It springs from the morbid desiro to
grow null) for the industrious farmer
and the luzy drono aro alike dazzed by
thu reports thoy receive of fabulmu
fortunes made in cities in speculative
trade in r-toeks, grain and all vnrkties
of produce, and they think thoy may
li.no equally good luck il they enter
into thu niciia whero the gamblers nro
striving. The areua is allutitig even
to well educated yiiting men who live
In tlio cities, nine-tenths of whom
think it beneath them lo engage in the
honorable pursuits of comnieice, ur thu
learned profession., or thu great in
dusttinl undertakings, on all which thu
sound prosperity of a community de
ieude. Wall btreet, Third ctreet,
titatu eireot n'jd their dependencies in
New York, Philadelphia and Huston
aro crowded with joung men that look
upon the btokerago business as moto
genteel than any of the pursuits for
which education and industry furnish
a most excellent equipment. Many of
mom ate soon tempted to oeeomu
speculators 111 broki-ie, and they aru
more up! to loose their money, miatiou
that entrusted to them ntnl fail in
business, often disgracefully, than they
could possibly bo 11 thuy Hero engaged
in pursuits that only require nitellt
nence and piudent enUrpiiso to enstiro
success.
If tho city bred young men thus fail,
tho countrv bled atu even in urealer
danger of "it. For (hey fall into tho
company and control ol more cunning
operators who aro always on the look
out for fit sli fellows who tnav bo de
luded. The individual wrecks of am
bitious young speculators iu cities are
bad enough, lint the effects upon thu
moral finality of the community is
moro set ions. Gieat cities like New
York, Philadelphia and Chicago, in
which young men, with a little capital
in money and loss in biains and ex
perience, swarm thioiigh the exchanges,
where they are in danger of falling
completely under tho control of ad
venturers, becomes (iHiwunlized in
many various ways. Even the politics
of tho great cities and the states to
which they belong aio influenced by
the money and tiade gamblers, and
their influence is at lust felt in Wash
ington. If the brain and muscle thus
mischievously misused were distributed
over tho country and engaged iu
honest trade, manufacturing, fanning
and other kinds of actual work depend
ant upon muscle and brain and not 011
tlio gambler's luck, tho real prosperity
and happiness of the peoplo would bo
greatly promoted. The steadily grow
ing influx of able-bodied young men
to the cities is a silent but uver-present
danger to the welfaru of the country.
Diptlieria,
Physicians prescribe the pievalence
of diptlieria at tho present day largely
to badly-tiimmed, smoky kerosene
lamps, which aro sometimes left burn
ing in chambers all night turned down
low, filling the room with their poison
ous fumes. A specific for dipthena is
sulphur, a tablospooiiful mixed in a
wineglass of water with the linger to
mix it moro thoroughly, and used as .1
gargle. In recent casts this will bring
immediate relief. Some of the pre
paration should be swallowed. A Lon
don physician mixed sulphur with
glvctrine. and gave a lablespoonftil
or more according to tho ago of the
patient, three or lour times a day, ap
jilying tho same remedy to tho nostrils
with a sponge,and did not loose a case,
liefoio this he Lad lost several.
The Need of Strength.
Women must excel in order to be
successful. Excellence implies strengtli
not spasmodic, nervous strength,
which makes an effort oneo in a while
under extraordinary pressure, but thu
strength which can turn off daily work
without excessive tattguo tlie strength
which leaves tho eyo still bright and
tho step elastic after a long day behind
tho countei, over the sewing-machine,
at the desk, at the easel, in tho kitch
en, in thu school-room. Such stiengtli
as this does not go with a small waist.
From the nature of things, it can
never unless, as it has been pointed
out in exceptional cases be found in
women with small waisls. Strong
back and abdominal musks, muscks
which can do their work without the
deadly pi ops of steel and whalebone
now so universally worn, a largo di
gestive capaity, a lapid and utterly un
obstructed flow of tho blood iu the
veins and arteties these are seine of
tho requiienienis of health nnd
strength. And these things take tip
room. J'hiladtlphia J'rcss.
