It was Ben Johnson, we believe, who, when asked Mallock's question, "Is life worth living ?" replied, "That depends on the liver." And Den Johnson doubtless saw the double point to the pun. The liver active quick life rosy, everything bright, mountains of trouble melt like moun tains of snow. The liver sluggish life dull, everything blue, molehills of worry rise into mountains of anxiety, and as a result sick headache, dizzi ness, constipation. Two ways are open. Cure permanently, or relieve temporarily. Take a pill ami suffer, or take a pill and get well. Shock the system by an overdose, or coax it by a mild, pleasant .way. Dr. Tierce's Pleasant Pellets are the mild means. They work effectively, without pain, and leave the system strong. One, little, sugar coated pel let is enough, although a whole vial costs but 25 cents. Mild, gentle, soothing and healing is Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. Only 50 cents ; by druggists.

I purchased Ely's Cream Balm and am using it freely, it is working a cure surely. I have advised several friends to use it, and with happy result in every case.

Cutlln Writes Interestingly of the Sltu.itlon If 111 Men Are Loyal anil Will Work for the Ticket Cleve land's Itrmiirltnlile Popularity I went over iuto the Democratic ranks mainly on account of my admiration for Mr. Cleveland and his methods of ad ministration, and as that admiration has continued and Increased In strength tip to tho present time, I may not be looked upon as an impartial Judge of the politi cal situation in its relations to him. A favorable word from a representa tive of that gallant body of men who adhered to the fortunes of Senator David B. Hill would carry with it more force, more satisfaction and more au thority than a volume dictated by one of Mr. Cleveland's enthusiastic political friends. No man who has any knowledge of affairs in New York state will for a mo ment undervalue the influence of tho men who opposed the nomination of Mr. Cleveland at Chicago. They are among the ablest, most popular and most influ ential men in the Democratic party. It ia folly to say that they could not men ace the success of the ticket in the state if they positively or negatively com bined for that purpose But no man who has any knowledge of the reputation and character of these men will dare to charge them with pro posed treachery to the action of the na tional convention or infidelity to the candidates it put in the field. The leaders of that grand column of New York delegatus are not only gallant fighters, but they are true Democrats as well as absolutely honorable men. Their fight ended in the convention, and they so announced unreservedly and have since repeatedly reasserted it Messrs. Murphy and McLanghllu and Croker and Shechan and the other lead ing spirits of the Hill movement have, by word and deed, given tho most ample assuraucc of their determination to give the electoral ticket hearty, earnest and unremitting support. And I believe that long before tho canvass shall he closed the country will hear from Sena tor Hill in such an unmistakable, way that there will be no more question as to the action of his friends at the polls. Assuming my position to be correct in reference to the action of these gentle men, he must be a monument of in credulity or 1 completely blinded by partisanship who doubts the success of the Democratic ticket in this state in the coming election. Mr. Cleveland is stronger with the masses than in 1884 or 1888. His strength and popularity have increased amazingly among the people during the last three and a half years. The record of his growth in the oonfl denco of the people has no parallel in American history. Chauncey Depew honored himself when he called him the "typical Amer ican.'' And the truth of this was con spicuously demonstrated by the action of the national convention. The name of no other presidential candidate ever elicited such wild worship u the name of Cleveland at Chicago. Neither Lin coln nor Grant nor Garfield evoked such tumultuous applause on the occasions of their respective nominations as Cleve land received in that great wigwam on the 80th of June last. And this, I ray again, proves his unparalleled strength with the people. And the conduct of the people at Chi cago simply typifies the sentiment of the people throughout the entire Union. Wherever his name ia mentioned it opens the valves and the surplus enthu siasm escapes In extraordinary demon strations. I have attended six ratifica tion meetings, three of them in the midst of the recent heated term, and I have never before seen such exhibitions in numbers and in unbounded enthusiasm. And the iseue which Mr. Cleveland, more than all others, furnished the party has grown with the candidate. The campaign of education systemat ically begun in 1888 has been carried into every mill and mine and school dis trict in the country, and it has grown in strength and popularity correspondingly with him who launched it upon the country from the presidential chair. While there are other vital matters, like the force bill, and the question of econ omy in administration, and the honest enforcement of the laws in reference to civil service reform, that will be tho sub ject of political discussion, the question of tariff reform will be the main one. Upon all the debatable ground the Democrats have the advantage of being right, and that will always prevail when the people understand it, as they will in the coming canvass. And hence I do not hesitate in declaring that the elec tion of Cleveland and Stevenson is rea sonably certain. J. 8. Catlin in New York Journal. And but I.lttlo, Kven Then.

Riches are not to be compared to con tentment of heart What does a fellow care if he does spend his pocket change here, if he knows he's got a bank ac oount in heaven T Nature loves truth so well that it hardly ever admits of flourishing. Con ceit is to nature what paint is to beauty ; it is not only needless, but impairs what it would improve. When a man begins to do wrong, he can not answer for himself how far he may be carried on. He does not see be forehand, hs can not know where he will find himself after the sin is com mitted. One false step leads to an other ; one evil concession requires an other. The poor, exiled shrub dreams of a splendid blossom which it has never teen, but is dimly conscious it onght somehow to produce. That is the way in which the ideal life, the life of full com pletion, haunts ns all. We feel the thing we ought to be beating beneath the thing we are. The most fascinating women are those that can most enrich the every day moments of existence. In a par ticular and attaching sense, they are those who can partake our pleasures and our pains in the liveliest and most devoted manner. Beauty is little with out this ; with it she is triumphant. The habit of dwelling on possible calamities, of elaborating possible dan gers, of prophesying griefs that never come, and cherishing those that do as sail us, leads to the niuuufiectuve of ar tificial trouble from which no good ever spring. So far from gaining in this way any power over real troubles when they come, what we already possess will be lost. In order to enjoy the present, it is necessary to be intent upon the present. To be doing one thing and thinking of another is a very unsatisfactory mode of spending life. Some people are al ways wishing themselves somewhere but just where they are, or thinking of something else than what they are do ing, or of somebody else than to whom they are speaking. This is the way to enjoy nothing well, and to please no HAPPENINGS ABROAD. There are 1,000 men to every 900 women in Greece. Dancing is taught in many of the pub lic schools in Scotland.

A PERNICIOUS CCCTRINE. Judge Rnmsry's Decision Would Cans Judicial Partisan Quarrel. Tho chief Republican nrgntnent against tho apportionment act is that the divi sion made by tho legislature is not fair. But the lawmaking power, and the law making power alone, is charged with tho duty of apportioning the state. The constitution intends that the qnpstion of fact involved in this task shall be de cided' by tbo legislature and the govern orin other words, by the political power. If the courts can etp in for the pnr poae of regulating the fairness of legis lators, why cannot they examine into all act of the legislative or executive de portments? The constitution requires that the several districts shall be as near ly as possible of equal population, hav ing due regard to the contiguity of ter ritory and to the rules forbidding the 1 division of counties and providing that each county except Franklin and Ham-' ilton shall have one assemblyman. If the courts can be asked to perform i a duty devolving on the legislature, or ' to set aside an act of the legislature on I the ground that it Involves an abuse of discretion, a wide political field is open to the judge not contemplated by the constitution and dangerous to the com monwealth. Judge Rumsey's decision would drag tho courts into partisan quarrels of the bitterest kind, and if that should be the result of this contest the courts would lose the wholesome respect which most of them now deserve. New York World. To Encourage the Weak Kneed. In administration circles, the story goes, there is considerable uneasiness felt because of the growing apathy among tho active Republican workers; because they declared before the Min neapolis convention, and have repeated it sinco, that "there are no inducements, from a federal patronage standpoint, for them to pull off their coats in behalf of Harrison." To counteract the widespread and steadily increasing feelinjr of discon tent among tho outs, it i raid a member of the cabinet announces thnt. in the event of the re-election of President Harrison "many important chanKes will be made in the personnel of the adminis tration." Charleston News and Courier. Stultifying Themselves. To a great extent the reciprocity proj ect was a humbug. It was intended as a sugar coating for the bitter pill of the McKinley tariff. "What do we care for abroad?" said Major McKinley. "Let us oultivate and develop the home mar ket and leave foreign trade to take care of itself," said other leading lights of Republicism. Yet in spite of these dec larations of antagonism to foreign trade the Republicans tacked the reci procity sections to the McKinley law with the pretended purpose of securing new foreign markets for our agricultur ists and manufacturers. Rochester (N. 1.) ilerald. A "Much Alive" Issue. Republicans of the wiser sort are making strenuous efforts to lift the force bill issue out of the campaign. Borne of the organs insist that the issue is dead and that Harrison's letter of ac ceptance will give it burial. The at tempt is vain. The issue is clearly made by the record and attitude of the party and its principal leaders. The force bill has been indorsed by Mr. Harrison and the controlling element in the party organization. Its principle is embodied and asserted in the platform of the party. 8t Louis Poet-Dispatch. A Prominent Bepublican Seeeder. There is some icrnlfirjine in th tart that Mr. William Dudlev Fonlke.

Richmond Times. A Vapid Bluff. The Republican papers pretend to ,n deeply inditmant over tho assembly re apportionment, and yet they say that the nepu oilcans will surely carry the next assembly in face of the fact that last year the Democrats carried tho stato hv nearly 50,000 majority, and in spite of me ract tmtt me itepubiicans have car ried the state for governor but once in twenty years! Buffalo Courier. An Unavoidable Inference, , The Republican papers now declare that no responsible utterance of the Re- ubliean party in 1890 ever promised better wages to the workingmen by the JucKiniey legislation.
