A CROSS-EYED EXAMINATION has 10
terrors for Mrs. Jenks. That is the rea
son she was not afraid of Butler.
WILY are the Democrats so much afraid
of the army of the United States ? They
were never afraid of the rebel army.
OWING to the extreme length of the
article from onr correspondent "Justice"
we are compelled to let it go over until
next week.
THE Potter committee has resumed.
We are not in favor of that kind of "resump
tion," unless there is to be a large "con
traction" of the testimony.
SEVERAL of the counties in this dis
trict, besides our own, are anxious for
Senator Fisher's nomination for Congress.
He can walk over the course without trou
ble.
OH ! that the members of Congress who
voted for the "army bill" could be caught
on the Western plains ! Let us have some
cases of Sioux-icide or another Bannack
burn.
THE tramps in some of the western
States are destroying agricultural imple
ments, and writing threatening letters
against the farmers using such such im
plements.
MRS. JENKS, the witness, has been "dis
charged." She went off with a bang. The
explosion scared Butler. If they would
only discharge the Potter committee now,
it would make a report.
COL. QUAY, Chairman Republican State
Committee, has gone for a ten days' trip
to the sun set side of the Alleghenies, and
Secretary Rogers is looking after a new
oil well on his farm in McKean county.
ANY injury that Congress fails to inflict
on the country in the passage of bills, the
clerks can accomplish in transcribing them.
What skillful legislators the clerks are !
Can't we dispense with Congressmen and
let the clerks do it all after this ?
THE Dill men threaten to never attend
another centennial celebration at Wyo
ming. It looked too mach like a Hoyt
demonstration. That then you can't re
press the people during a political cam
paign. They will express their preferences.
THE occasional "hotel grumbler" is not
a rarity, bat there are few hotels that give
the almost universal satisfaction both in
rates and accommodation that characterises
the Grand Central Hotel, New York. It
is concededly the best kept and most
popular among all its rivals.
The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph demands that
the Southern people shall be paid for the
emancipated slaves. Next they will probably
want pay at hotel rates, for the entertainment
of Union prisoners during the war.—Floating
hem.
And when they send in the bills they
will include the funeral expenses of the
Union soldiers they starved to death.—
They are only waiting for Congress to is.
sue an order on the paymaster, in other
words, to make an appropriation.
THE number of Congressmen who voted
at the last session of Congress . in favor of
the payment of rebel claims out of the
United States Treasury was sixty-one. It
will require but a slight increase of this
number to make a majority of the Demo
cratic members and to give them control
of the matter in the Democratic caucus .
And then, if the Democrats are still in
power in Congress, look out for a bill that
would very suddenly and largely increase
the national debt.
MRS. ELIZA HEBER is another Louisi
ana woman. During the war, she owned
forty acres of land, one-half of which was
under water. Two thousand infantry were
encamped about two weeks in the vicinity.
Now Mrs. Heber alleges that these troops
used 800 barrels of her corn, 1500 cords
of wood, 30 hogs, 20 head of cattle, and
other property, which she estimates at
$47,975. We wonder what the land was
worth. Hadn't the Government better
buy the whole South than to pay the "war
claims ?"

A LABOR LEADER'S OPINION OF
MASON.
Editor.
Indications of the Disintergation of
the National Party.
It is well known, and we. think will not
be denied by the Nationalists themselves,
that there are two elements in their party,
antagonistic and difficult to harmonize,
the labor-reformers and greenbackers. In
our own county, it will be remembered
that the movement was commenced by the
workingmen, who called meetings for the
advancement of their own interests, and
that after they had met a few times they
were joined by their present local leaders,
and were led into financial folly, not in
pursuance of their original intention, but,
perhaps, contrary to it. We have re
peatedly said that Mr. Mason is not such
a candidate as laboring men could con
sistently support, but we did not anticipate
such a sudden and complete breaking
away from him as now seems probable.—
Judge Stanton, of Luzerne county, was
elected to the bench last year by a majority
of more than 3,000 votes over both the
Republican and Democratic candidates by
the labor party, and it would seem that he
ought to adhere to the Nationalists if
there is any concurrence of sentiment be
tween him and them. But he is now as
anxious to divide the National party as he
was a year ago to defeat his own. An in
terview with him upon political matters
has recently been published in the Scran
ton Sunday Free Press, in which he freely
gives his views in regard to Mr. Mason.
He warmly advocates the election of Mr.
Dill, a fact which has no other political
significance than that he desires to lead a
large portion of the Nationalists into the
Democratic party. We would ask the
careful perusal and consideration of some
things he says, and of an editorial from
the Free Press, the organ of the labor men
of Luzerne county. It is well for them
to be warned as to whither they are drift
ing. We do not propose to give here all
that Judge Stanton said, but only a few
extracts. In regard to the result of the
coming election he said :
The indications point to the election of
either Dill or Hoyt. I see no possible chance
for Mason. Be is simply a money issue can
didate. He was put in the convention as
Frank Hughes' man, and nominated against
the labor delegates protest, and with the dis
tinct understanding that he would not favor
the political views of the laboring masses ; for
the platform presented by the element in the
contention representing the pure Labor
party was set aside for a platform expressing
the views of Hughes and Dewees. For such
a candidate there is no abiding or middle
place.
When asked whether he approved of
the laboring men making nominations for
the Legislature, he replied :
Most certainly I do. They should nominate
here in Luzerne and wherever they have a
chance to win, candidates for the Senate and
House of Representatives. The Labor party
is the only necessary third party in this State
its policy is as distinct from the men who call
themselves Greenbackers as it is from the
policy of the Democratic party.
His views of the Greenback leaders and
their policy is as follows :
I am opposed to the policy of the II ughes-
Dewees school of politicians, who say if we do
not win this year we will next. It is this
namby-pamby policy that has brought labor
to its present pitiable condition, and that will
forever keep the laboring man on starvation
wages. lam for practical and immediate
relief; and such relief will not arise by throw
ing away our votes on Mason.
He presents Mr. Mason in rather an un
favorable light to the opponents of corpo
rations :
It is a fact that a certain element of the
Democracy of Luzerne, composed of what I
call the Know-Nothing Democracy, is opposed
to Senator Dill on account of his liberal, non
sectarian views and tendencies, and they will
vote either for Mason or Hoyt. These Demo
crats who so propose to vote are mostly men
of large capital, and are connected with the
banks and coal and railway corporations.—
Mason is not seriously objectionable to them,
for it is an allegation not denied, and, as I am
positively assured, undeniable, that he has
figured throughout most of his professional life
as a corporation attorney. Frank Hughes, to
whom Mason is altogether indebted for his
nomination, is one of Frank Gowen's most
trusted counsellors.
These extracts are sufficient to introduce
the editorial we have mentioned, which is
the strongest arraingment of the National
candidate by a labor organ that could be
possibly made :
The interview with Judge Stanton, which
we publish elsewhere to day, contains matter
worthy the consideration of the readers of the
Ira Press. The Judge has been for many
years in the front rank of labor in its conflict
with the monopolies of Pennsylvania, and if
there be one other man whom the corporations
and shoddy fear and hate more than they do
him, we have yet to learn his name. With him
at the head of their ticket last fall, the labor
men of Luzerne county achieved a victory
which stunned monopolists throughout the
land. That was a fight fairly won by the La
bor party without the co-operation or assist.
ance of the Hughes-Dewees Greenback-corpo
ration clique which now proposes to steal the
Luzerne county laboring men's thunder for
their own aggrandizement. We do not believe
that Hughes is friendly to labor, while we know
that Judge Stanton is. Hughes is, as the Judge
says, Franklin B. Gowen's trusted counsellor,
and as the attorney of Gowen's giant corpora
tion, how, we ask, can he be other than hos
tile to labor ? Hughes belongs to Gowen, Ma
son is the candidate of Hughes, and only on
the principle that "Birds of a feather, flock to
gether," can their affiliation be explained.
What Hughes could not obtain for himself, be
has secured for one who will be his tool, and
through this tool be hopes to ride into the
United States Senate. Mason and Hughes are
animated by selfish motives, and this the la
boring classes will learn to their cost. The
laboring men of Pennsylvania would smile
with great loudness if they should see a lech
erous man presented as the representative of
morality, a drunken man as the representative
of sobriety, a corrupt man as the representa
tive of honesty, the Devil as the representative
of innocence or a king as the representative of
democracy, yet they apparently regard with
serious consideration what, in our eyes, is
equally, if not more, absurd than any of the
instances mentioned, to wit : The nomination
of a corporation attorney as their candidate
for Governor. If this nomination had happen s -
ed a few years ago, when prosperity sat en
throned in the houses of labor, it might be
passed over as a political accident, but that it
should happen at a moment when labor is
most jealous and watchful of her rights, seems
inexplicable. A leopard can sooner change
his spots than Mason should change his pro.
corporation sentiments, and they who dream
that if lifted by labor votes to the executive
chair, he will change his sentiments, have yet
to learn by bitter experience how callous this
species of humanity is. The laboring men of
Pennsylvania are not bound blindly to vote
for a man because he is on their ticket, es
pecially when he is placed there by the basest
political intrigue and manipulation. They, of
all classes, should realize by this time that in
these degenerate days men mean everything
and . platforms nothing. "Principles, not men,"
is now a tradition of the past. The Devil with
the ten commandments emblazoned on his
banner, would be, notwithstanding, the Devil.
Yet let it not be inferred from our similitudes
that we wish it to be understood that Mr. Ma
son is the Devil, others beside the Devil are
entitled to, and frequently get their dues. Mr.
Mason, if elected, will indisputably be one of
our most "Christian statesmen." He is one
of the elect In the church, which numbers
among its members such Christian lights as
Minister Logan and F. S. Pauli,—and it is
said he is somewhat conceited on his church
standing. Now, while we do not take much
stock in these "Christian statesmen,"—be.
cause we can never class them otherwise than
as "wolves in sheep's clothing,"—we do not
wish others to imbibe our prejudices. In the
absence of sympathy with labor, Mr. Mason's
religious susceptibilities will come into play
for somebol,y's benefit. It is consoling to
think that in the event of Mr. Mason's elec
tion, although he will have little bowels of
compassion for the hard-fisted toiler, that the
freedom of the executive mansion will be guar
anteed to the Scranton Battalion and other
Christian organizations. It is consoling for
the laboring men to reflect that as Governor,
Mr. Mason will in the zeal of religious sym
pathy, be a grand auxiliary for Pauli when
he goes to Ilarrisloirg to have Judge Stanton
impeached for being so imprudent as to sen
tence him to prison for the trifling crime of
forgery.
We believe in the rause of labor, and we
will aid the laboring men all we can in our
humble way this fall to obtain the mastery,
wherever success in the fight promises to be
beneficial to themselves, but since the election
of Mr. Mason would, in our judgment, be only
a victory for one of the greatest enemies of
labor, we will record our vote for plain, hon
est, Andy Dill, who, without any pretentions,
will do his whole duty by all classes, poor and
rich alike.
We would ask the working men of
Huntingdon county whether they will sup-
P
portsuch a man as Mr. Mason is shown
to be by their own party friends. If not,
will they allow themselves to be transfer
red bodily to the Democratic party ? These
are the only questions they have to con•
sider in this campaign.
IT is said that through the courtesy of
the railroad companies, the delegates to
the Greenback State Convention which
nominated Mason, traveled to Philadelphia
on free tickets, and that the Chairman of
the National State Committee expects to
have a large number of passes to use in
the campaign. And this is the anti•cor
poration party ! They ought to be too
independent to travel on a railroad at all,
and especially to place themselves under
obligations to the companies by accepting
their favors. How can a red•hot Nation
alist, or even an imported communist, cry
out against the monopolies while enjoying
a free ride in a monopolist's car, over a
monopolist's railroad, and drawn by a mo
nopolist's locomotive ? It may have been
the accommodating spirit of the corpora
tions that made Mason the candidate. They
certainly would not have done so much to
secure the nomieation of one opposed to
them. Truly, passes are the great danger
that is besetting this political Sansom in
its very youth.
When we have obtained the upper hand we
propose to undo what has been done by the
Radicals since 1861, so far as lies in our
power. We propose to tear the negro amend
ments out of the Constitution. We propose
to restore the Planter Republic of our fathers
in all . its purity and simplicity.—Missiazippi
l'aper.
"The upper-hand." Well, let us see.
Can they undo their own bad work—Fort
Sumter, and Andersonville, and Libby,
and Fort Pillow ? We will be as glad as
they, if they can. Will they be permitted
to "undo" Antietam, and Fort Donelson,
and Gettysburg, and Vicksburg, and Ap
pomattox ? Impossible. Can they "tear"
the emancipation proclamation from his
tory, the amendment prohibiting payment
for the emancipated slaves from the Con
stitution ? Can they "restore" slavery, or
the purity of the negro blood ? In their
undoing, and tearing, and restoring, they
will find impediments and difficulties, inter
posed by which is the great Republican
party.
SOME very indiscreet Greenbacker or
Democrat, in this place, writes a letter to
the Altoona Globe, in which he tells some
secrets not intended to be known outside
the inner circle, and fur which Mr. Speer
will be likely to call his political skirmish
ers to account. The writer is desirous
that the Democrats "give the Nationals a
little help to bring about the defeat of the
Republicans," and Mr. Speer is desirous
that the Nationals "give the Democracy a
little help" fur the same purpose. Mr.
Speer can "set his trap," but we can as
sure the writer of the Globe letter that
Republicans will not "readily fall into it,"
for they "know" she trapper "thoroughly,"
and will tread carefully where they see
immense piles of coffee grounds.
AFTER a trial of twenty days duration,
in the Camden, N. J., courts, Benjamin
Hunter was convicted of the murder of
James M. Armstrong. The murderer
and his victim were both Philadelphians,
and under pretence of assisting him, to
collect some money due him from parties
in Camden, he enticed Armstrong over
the river and murdered him. Hunter had
insurance policies to the amount of $26,000
on the life of his victim.
HON. M. S. QUAY, Chairman of the
Republican State Committee, is on a fly
ing visit to the western part of the State•
He will return in a few days, strengthen
ed and recuperated for the fight before
him. He is equal to the emergency, and
will make it red hot for the coffee pot De
mocracy before the ides of November.
THE Grand Army of the Republic pro
pose to hold an encampment at Gettysburg,
commencing on the 20th inst. The tents,
capable of holding one thousand persons,
will be pitched on a vacant piece of ground
just opposite the National Cemetery in that
place. The encampment promises to be
largely attended.
THE Indian uprising in Oregon is crea
ting the greatest consternation among the
people, who are willing to volunteer for
their own defence, but their cervices can
not be accepted on account of the scarcity
of arms and means. It is high time the
Government would lay a heavy hand upon
these red demons.
THE Altoona Globe, after a suspension
of a few days, has again made its appear
ance, as dingy and dauby looking as it did
before it got its new type. With new ma
terial there is no excuse for a paper looking
like it does ; some new printers would be
an improvement.
The Recording Angel probably took a holi
day on the Fourth; the Potter committee did
not meet.—Phila. Press.
It may have given the Recording Angel
a rest, but wasn't encouraging for the fire
works business of another angel—the fal
len one.
IN 1873, the "war claim" of Mrs. Eliza
Heber, of Louisiana, was $22,500. It is
now $47,975. Nothing grows faster than
a "war-claim." Slaves will be up to $5OOO
each if we don't soon pay for them.
RUMOR has it that Chairman Boring
will call the Greenback county convention
for the 30th inst.
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
TO THE WORKINGMEN OF HUNT
INGDON COLNTY•
EDITOR JOURNAL—Sir :—In using the term
workingmen, it is not because of any special sig
nificance we desire to attach to the name, but be
cause it is used by others. In its restricted sense
it means those who are employed at fixed wages,
but in a more general way it includes everybody
and is equivalent to the people; for there are but
few, very few, who may be excluded from the
work mg class. When the term is used it requires
a great round of explanation to have our readers
knew just whom we regard as workingmen; and
our effort would be quite as intelligible if we had
said the people, and stopped.
Therefore, when we use the term, workingmen,
we mean the people, unless to wake sense its re
stricted construing is required. It may be pre
sumption on our part to ask the people to consider
the views we may present. But as we have noth
ing to desire but the general prosperity of every
one, knowing that whatever of selfishness we may
possess will be fully gratified in obtaining all we
deserve, when every other person is prosperous
and happy we earnestly desire this, as your care
ful readers well know who have not forgotten the
spirit and doctrine of many of our former articles
in your paper.
We have advocated measures that would benefit
the nation without the necessity of dividing men
into classes, which, when once adopted will en
dure because they would not violate any social law.
The first point to be gained in the consideration
of any subject is to clearly understand it. When
fault is found with the result of any process the
proper course to pursue is to inquire for the origin
of the wrong, and when that is discovered the evil
may readily be corrected.
But instead of following this wise course, opin
ions are smAtered far and wide, based on the
most trivial conjectures, not one of which san be
supported by the least shadow of evidence. Yet
many people, aho have not the time or opportu
nity to investigate for themselves, are carried
away with those false notions. Those onty, who
have tried it, know the labor required to delineate
a single truth accurately; but few there are who
will endure the labor, and, consequently, their
teaching is mixed with error. We would have the
workingmen happy, and most gladly will we as
mist in bringing about such measures as will fully
assure them such a condition. But when we see
them following men, who can raise the torrents of
passion, but can not stay the flood of destruction,
it seems the duty of every good citizen, at least, to
point to the danger that is approaching.
We have a good government, yet the time never
was when some of the people were not complain
ing of hard times, bad government, high taxes,
and all other imaginable ills. It is true there
have been times, as now, when real distress was
felt, and invariably the party out of power iaid
the source of all the trouble upon the one in pow
er; and ambitious men have never failed to seize
these opportunities for the promotion of their own
selfish schemes, by holding up false inducements
to the public.
Of this nation it is said that it is an "asylum
for the oppressed of all nations," and it may be
true, but if it is, those enjoying its benign in
fluence should conform with its laws and institu
tions, instead of which, they have sown the seeds
of poison, and corrupted our people, many of
whom are carried sway by the false doctrines pre
sented. To-day our large cities, where these
corrupting influences prevail and have a majority,
are but little better than the cities over which the
waves of the Dead Sea roll. Were it not for the
moral character of the rural districts—the farmers
—for whom Satan has no mischief, because they
are never idle, the country would soon fall into
the clutches of that much-abused individual.
From these false doctrines the National party
came, and now, as workingmen, you are asked to
follow its advocates, under the disguise that they
alone can relieve your distress. They present to
the public very little of their true intent, hoping
to gather power in this manner, and afterwards,
by stealth, introduce their obnoxious innovations.
If this party was what it appears to be on the sur
face it would not deserve notice, for if it were to
day in power, the good it proposes, and by the
measures indicated, would never be felt. But when
the veil is lifted a little, and we get a glimpse of
the animal, with "seven heads and ten horns,"
we are led to inquire what manner of creature it
is. There has never been a movement in this na
tion that required such strict and continued watch
ing.
If the National party was really a workingman's
party we should not raise our voice against it, but
when we see men, who have never given a drop of
sweat to labor, proclaiming loudly and lustily for
the rights of labor, while the men with hardened
fists and snnbrowned faces it in the background,
we cannot accept the concern as in earnest. This
party starts from the assumption that the distress
of the people is altogether due to the bad policy of
the government, and having for a long time been
under the control of the Republican party, it,
alone, is responsible for all the people endure. The
assumptions being false, the remedy offered must
fail. Indeed the whole train of allegations and
propositions are based on the most flimsy opin
ions, not one of which can be proven true by any
respectable evidence. While we know, too well,
the people are in distress, we say, without fear of
successful contradiction, the Republican party is
not responsible for it, nor aro the reasons gener
ally given for the distress based on facts.
We may say further, that parties have very lit
tle to do with bringing on the business troubles
that occasionally afflict us. Reasons, outside of
parties, may be found for them. Indeed, it may
be shown that the people themselves, and certain
things over which they have no control, bring on
the mischief.
As we find this article will become too lengthy
for one issue, we must defer its conclusion until
another time, but before closing we wish to notice
a couple of squibs that appeared in a recent issue
of the Greenback Nationalist. It is true, the wail
was not lengthy but exceedingly deep.
One writer cries out "Read ! read ! read ! let ev
ery greenbacker, every farmer, especially every
workingman, read "Trite's" communication in the
JOURNAL, remember the contumely it heaps on
your class. Read it carefully, have your neigh
bors read it, and let it do campaign service."
Kerrect, sir. Let it be read and the truth of it
discovered, and we assure you it will do campaign
service, but not at your mill. Going on a little
further we find the following, which seems to come
from the same pen : "There are some greenback
era in these parts who would be a disgrace to the
Fejee Islands, on account of their innate ignorance
and petty prejudices." Whew ! "slander"—"con
tumely." Let's compare notes, Another gentle
man, writing from the "Upper End," says some
very naughty things, which shocked us serionajy.
Ile tells the people we could not enter the Univer
sal Brotherhood. We are at a loss to know how
he learned this, but it is wonderful how some men
do get information. Yet we think there is a mis
take somewhere, for we have been a member of a
very Universal Brotherhood for a long time. There
seems to be a difference, however, in the one de
scribed by this gentleman and the one we have
been connected with. Whilso, he excludes some
we admit everybody.
Our order is very old, and broad in its views,
and is based on a constitution and by-laws exceed
ingly plain and simple.
The first section of the first article, of our con
stitution, is as follows : "Thou shalt have no ether
God before me."
The second is, "Thou shalt not make unto thee
any graven image," /Lc.
The by-laws are of like character. The first is
in these words, "whatsoever ye would that men do
unto you do ye even so to them."
Now, if this "Upper End" gentleman wishes to
acquaint himself with the workings of our order,
or desires to become a member, we shall be most
happy to loan him the books containing the con
stitution and by-laws, wherein everything pertain
ing to it is clearly and completely explained.
There is no difficulty in getting into our Lodge.
Members do not have to go through a gangway,
or air tunnel, nor go down a shaft, or stove-pipe,
nor say, or do any funny things, but whenever the
spirit moves them they enter the door and enter in.
It is large enough to admit a locomotive. This
gentleman says the Brotherhood is not political.
Very well do we know this. Politics is too high,
too noble a science to be found groping among
woodchucks. We have called these societies po
litical, (for which we beg pardon) not because they
are political, but because they have intruded them
selves where true polities alone, in its majesty,
should be found. Again, this gentleman tells the
people that our poor heart ached, when we saw
over the door of his Lodge, the unchangeable fiat,
"No professional men can enter here." This did
start a pang of sorrow bard to be endured. To
feel that we were shut out with Laplace, with
Newton, and Leverrier, with Franklin, with Web
ster, and Morse, was enough to make a stronger
heart than ours "bust." Yet there is a little con
solation in remembering that the hog never looks
up to him who threshes down the acorns.
With your permission, Mr. Editor, we will con
clude our article at another time. TRITE.
Death in the Whirlwind.
SEVEN PERSONS KILLED AND TLIIRTEEN
WOUNDED AT A PICNIC-LIST OF
KILLED AND WOUNDED.
PITTSBIMIGR, July s.—The Sunday school of
the German Lutheran Church, of Sharpsburg,
held their picnic yesterday on the Ross farm ,
three or four miles above Sharpsburg. The
forenoon had been bright and brilliant,
although somewhat sultry. By noon clouds
had overspread the sky and a little later a
smart shower fell. This was of short duration,
and sun again broke forth bright and warm,
so that the picknickers were content to remain
on the ground. The clouds again gathered
about half-past two o'clock, and by three
o'clock the rain began to fall, and all on the
grounds were driven to such shelter as could
hastily be found. There was no pavillion or
tent upon the ground, b.nd the means of shel
ter were therefore extremely limited. The
wagons present afforded an attractive place,
and all that could got under them. Mr. Con
rad Reithmiller, of Sharpsburg, had his cover
ed grocer's wagon on the ground, and it was
packed full, while as many others as could
got underneath it. About three o'clock the
wind blew terrifically, while the rain descend
ed in torrents, mixed with hail stones fully the
size of hulled walnuts. Suddenly a crash was
heard and in quick succession the noble trees
of the grove were leveled to the earth.
The Reithmiller wagon, which was crowded
to repletion inside, and had a number of
per
sons under it, stood beneath one of the largest
trees in the grove, which yielded, and, splin
tering and crashing, fell squarely upon the
heavily laden wagon and crushed it to the
earth. The crushing weight was soon
removed. Beneath the tree, there lay, still in
death, seven persons. Others crushed and
bruised, but still alive, were also there. The

Whenever and Wherever
Diseases of a cholerate type prevail, or there
is cause to apprehend a visit from them, the
system should be toned, regulated and rein
forced by a course of Ilostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Perfect digestion and a regular . haleit
of body are the best safeguards against such
disorders. If promptly taken in billions colic,
diarrhoea and cholera morbus, the disease is
usually frustrated. In diarrhcea, cases, it is
only necessary to restore the tone of the relax
ed bowels, and this is one of the specific effects
of this medicine. Wind on the stomach,
heartburn, biliousness, nausea, headache and
other symptoms of disturbance in the gastric
and hepatic regions are also speedily relieved
by this excellent remedy. As a family medi
cine it is invaluable, since it promptly and
completely remedies those ailments which are
of most frequent occurrence. [julys-lm
Natural Selection.
Investigators of natural science have dem
onstrated beyond controversy, that throughout
the animal kingdom the "survival of the
fittest" is the only law that vouchsafes thrift
and perpetuity. Does not the same principle
govern the commercial prosperity of man ?
An inferior cannot supersede a superior arti
cle. Illustrative of this principle are the
family medicines of R. V. Pierce, M. D., of
Buffalo, 9T. Y. By reason of superior merit,
they have outrivaled all other medicines.
Their sale in the United States alone exceeds
one million dollars per annum, while the
amount exported foots up to several hundred
thousand more. No business could grow to
such gigantic proportions and rest upon any
other basis than that of merit. It is safe to
say that no medicine or combination of medi
cines yet discovered equals or can compare
with Dr. Pierce's Golden Nledical Discovery,
for the cure of coughs, colds, and all pulmon
ary and blood affections. If the bowels be
constipated and liver sluggish, his Pleasant
Purgative Pellets will give prompt relief;
while his Favorite Prescription will positively,
perfectly, and permantly, care those weak
nesses and "dragging down" sensations
peculiar to females. In the People's Common
Sense Medical Adviser, an illustrated work of
nearly one thousand pages, the Doctor has
fully discussed the principles that underlie
health and sickness. Price $1.50, post-paid.
