a ————————————— i FRED KURTZ ... Editor, Oextre Han, PA, May 13, 1885, TE TE STE SS THE CLOVER TEA CURE. [Chicago Times.] United States Senator Stanford, of Cal- ifornia, says the cure of Gen, Grant is owing to the use of clover tea for the past four weeks, Among the numerous letters received by Mrs. Grant suggesting vas rious remedies, clover tea was urged by the majority of the writers, and this so influenced her that she finally insisted on giving it a trial at once. The doctors paid they had no objections, although they had no faith in it whatever. They gave it a trial of one week and then dropped it, Mrs, Grant and the family, however, continued to give it tothe Gen- eral, without the knowledge of the doe- tors, and have kept it up ever since. His improvement was noticed from the day he began taking it. Senator Stanford had a friend named Bishop who, some years ago, had a cancer break out In three different places on his face and neck. The best physicians in the coun- try treated him, but failed to do him any good, Finally an old doctor of Jersey Uity recommended clover tea as a puris fier of blood and possible remedy for cancerous diseases, Bishop tried it and was cored, Stanford said that General Grant told him that at three different times he would have died had not the doctor been present to revive bim with stimulants. Stanford himself was pres- ent once when Grant was unconscious for five minutes, and at another time when be nearly strangled to death. “He certainly has had some very close calls,” sald the Senator, oe liane CASTOR OIL, One of the chief uses to which castor oil is now put is that of dressing and softening leather for boots. It was for- merly used for dosing children whose stomachs were disordered. And an aw ful dose it was. Now we give children Brown's Iron Bitters, which tones the stomach, regulates digestion, and im- parts strength to the body. Brown's Iron Bitters is incomparably better than castor oil, and more pleasant to take. >a EXECUTION OF A YOUNG RED- SKIN ACCORDING TO CHOC.

The praisers of past men and times had no difficulty in imagining that in the earlier periods every man was six feet upwards and every woman five feeb ten, and till science came with its measuring appa- ratus they had the best of the argument, There is little dispute now on the sub- ject, chiefly because statistics, coats of armor and feats of strength have finally settled that, with great exception, men of all places, epochs and breeds have kept very much at the same level. The Hottentot and the Laplander have been always dwarfish, and the Caucasian, through the whole gamut of history, has been handsome and stately, That giants are exceptional in a very peculiar sensa is shown by the fact that they grow as often among people not distin. guished for more than average stature a8 among the taller nations. A Seotoh professor once Yell on the plan of measuring all his students and noting nationalities, s0 that he might get some idea as to which of the peoples were tallest. He found that Americans, especially those from the West, were first in this odd competition, Irishmen next, the Scoteh next, and the English shortest of these four peoples. But it would have been no surprise to him if more men of really gigantic size could be found in England than anywhere else, because no rule of average seems to exist for such products: The Chineso giant Chang could hardly be said to owe his hei ght to any sort of contagion of example 8 to be met with in the land of the Cel estials. Geology has rather refused to allow that there were times when giant 8 formed the rule and not tl exception. Those days must have been farther befowe the flood than naturalists can intellectually foeus. It is quite another poiat whether physical inquiries sre at all raised by the prehistorio assumption about a regularly tall section of the humen family. There is now ittle doubt at all that within histories! periods the race has kept its uniformity 80 well, that the rule is only the better established by the occasional appour. ance of these he roes of the flesh. Ibis also frue that with the aid of modern intellect and apolianceJthere is not at all the old im pressiveness in the giant 8s such. That he needed intellect to bo formidable was a greet discovery for the normalista. W hen minds were simpler and less ready of fence, the man above six feet, with ¢ v without armor, had a | natural suprem sey, and kis importance increased with the length of leg and arm. On this stistocracy of physical preponderance t he sentence of Ichabod bas long since been passed, and, like Samsom after h is hair was cut off, the giante of civilized! Rife, even if reaching the seventeen fe)d four inches of the French giant of Angers, are quite like other men in essa atin] significance. tl BA AI oe THE KINGS OOF LITTLE PFOPO, 10 The corresponcient of the Cologne Gazette on the Comeroons River gives | ever reliable. : ¢v for the celebrated Dr. King's New Discovery for Consuwmtpion, will sell it un 8 positive guarantee.

He passed the earlier part of his life in Brazil, snd has a great reputationon the coast for Integrity and energy, but was so prostraied by illness when the corres pondent saw him that he could only point with a melancholy look to his paralyzed side. Quadjovi is only a fow months younger than Quadjo, and the correspondent had to wait while he was dressing to receive him. His costume was a togs, a white cap like those worn by wom en in Europe, and on the top of 8 lilno-covered chimney-pot hat Not withstanding this grotesque dress he looked very “dignified,” and addressed some v ory polite questions to his visitor about the health of Emperor William.
