BUTLER CITIZEN MISCELLAN EOUS. "YOJ are no Gentleman, Sir." While General Grant was undergo ing a demonstration on the part of the mob at Bradford last Friday, he met an unpleasant incident which will no doubt cause him to remember Brad ford with anytLinz but a feeling of pleasure. ArouDg the mob pressing lorward to shake bands with him was a burly, powerful man with a stub thumb on his rif?bt hand, by means of which he makes tho grip of band very painful. It is one of his pleasant tricks to cause any one with whom he shakes hands to howl with pain. lie thought it would be very funny to try his favor ite trick on Grant, and he did so. The General was not expecting any such expressions of hospitality. The grip was as intensly painful as it was un expected. His face blushed, as it was with difficulty that be could refrain from crying out, but he did, and sim ply remarked to the "smart Aleck," "You are no gentleman, sir,"' —as truthful a remark as be ever made. It is said that if the railing of the car had not been in the way he would have kicked the man in the face. At all events he did no more hand-shaking with the public, and was no doubt pleased to escape any further expres sions of Bradford's hopitality. —They say "a word to the wise is sufficient," but we think it takes about five, 'Use Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.' You can get this article at any drug store for twenty-five cent. Physicians recommend it. The "oldest inhabitants" who had never known snch weather in Decem ber, were numerous and talkative last week. Persons who are positive that our climate is-changing also found new supporter?. Communion Wine. Physicians have used Speer's Port Qrape Wine, of New Jersey, and, hav ing applied to it the strictest test, pro nounce it a pure wine, and recommend it to the aged and infirm, and for gen eral use where wine is desirable, as the most reliable of wines to be had. It received the highest award at the Cen tennial Exhibition. Mr. Speer also preserves the grape juice Iresh and sweet just as it runs from the press, not by the use of spirits, but by ex tracting the fermenting principle from the ripe grapes when mashed.

They live in magnificent houses, but the arrange ment of the furniture is all left to the taste of a gentleman who makes such matters a study. The house does not represent the family, and is no more the expression of their artistic develop ment than are the furnished rooms of a hotel. One of these queer folk sent his daughter to a boarding school, and after a while the teacher told the moth er as delicately as possible that the real trouble with the girl was that she bad no capacity. "Well," said the good woman, "I blame you, sir, for not having mentioned this before. Her father has an abundance of means, and can afford to purchase his daughter the finest capacity there is in the market. I beg you to get one for her immedi ately, cost what it may."

To this end, as is acknoledged by all med ical men, nothing is better adapted than iron. The fault hitherto has been that iron could not be so prepared as to be absolutely harmless to the teeth. This difficulty has been overcome by the Brown Chemical Company of Bal timore, Md., who offer their Brown's Iron Bitters as a faultless iron prepar ation a positive cure for dyspepsia, in digestion, kidney troubles, etc. —We .say of some men what the Scotchman said of his horse: "He is an honept beast, as I told you. He threatened to come down with mcsome day and nearly break my neck, and be has kept his word." He Gave up his Crutches in Three Weeks. BUTLER, N. Y., March 22, 1882. Rheumatic Syrup Co.: I wi?b to say to the public, I have bad the rbeumstism for fifteen years; some of the time bad to use crutches to get around, and the past winter could not get out of doors for weeks at a time. Have used all remedies I could bear of and doctored with differ ent physicians to no purpose, and could get no relief until I commenced taking your Syrup. I had taken but two bottles before i could see a change. Continuing its use a few weeks, find myself walking without crutch or cane. Any one troubled with rheumatism should take Rheumatic Syrup and be cured, for it is a positive cure. J. B. CHATFIELD. SOUTH BLTLEB, March 10, 'B2. Rheumatic Syrup Co.: Gents—This is to certify that I have had rheumatism for several years; at times so I could not raise my hand to my head, nor get my coat on without help. I commenced taking your Syrup and had taken it but a short time when it began to help me. I have taken two bottles and am as well as ever. I think it has no equal as a rheumatic cure. ISRAEL J. CLAPP. —They say you cannot teach an old dog new tricks, but you can teach old tricks to a new dog. $2,500 versus $1.50. "I spent $2,500 with other doctors," writes Mr. J. W.

Midlam, Glfi Boas St., Harrisburgb, Pa , says: "Brown's Iron Bitters speedily cured me of ner vousness and stomach troubles." "How beautiful that woman sings," said one lady to another, who was in gorgeous attire and blazing with diamonds, "Is she a mezzo-soprana "No, I guess not; I thing she is a Swede," replied the other. "Landlady, please pass your cow down this way," asked one of the "dandy" boarders while at the supper table. "Certainly," she replied. "Here, waiter, take the cow down to where the calf is bleating." parade your riches is contemptible. A man may be proud of his bouse, but it is not necessary to ride on a ridge-pole, says the proverb. from a fault committed. Old Fuller once said, "Where the horse falls down there some hair will be found." could be contented with what you have instead of making yourself miserable by wishing for what you have not. II you look up all day a cbip will some times fall into your eyes. —What people on the planet know better than we that honor and profit do not stay long in the same sack. Though it takes two to make a bargain, "won" is sufficient for a victory. Opponents of the new time stand ard are singing "There's no time like the old time." Man's greatest need is association, says a recent work on political economy. If we had been called upon for an opin ion, we should have thought of a winter overcoat, a new hat, even bread and butter, before association. But, then, we don't profess to know all about political economy. A good education is more to be desired than great riches, but the lat ter captures the girls the quickest. anxious correspondent; and in our bumble opinion it is, most emphatical ly—a Teu-tonic. to her little girl, "you don't suppose I do it for my pleasure, do you ?"
