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

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. For
sale by D. H. Wuller.
Theie are people in the world who
have made their money so rapidly that
their brains have not had a chance to
grow in proportion. 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."
Dr. Benson's Shin Cure consists of
internal and external treatment at

—lf some one should ask you for a
good definition of honesty would you
be able to say, as the countryman said,
"I don't know the meaning of the word
sir ?"
—lf disease has entered the system
the only way to drive it out is to pusi
fy and enrich the blood blood. 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.

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.

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.

How Watch Cases are Made.
This process of manufacture was invented
by James Boss, who started in business in
1.854, and tiie methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. This is the only watch case made
tinder this process. For many years the in
troduction of these goods was slow, owing
to popular prejudice against "plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that the
James Boss' Cold Watch Case was .tot a
cheap gold-washed or electro-plated article,
but was made of genuine gold jl:is of
standard r/uality an J thickness. Conacienti -:s
adherence t<> the determination to ji:ake
the best watch case ever put on the market,
and the adoption of every improvement
suggested, has made the James Boss' Cold
Watch Case the STANDARD. X;t
In this watch case the parts o
most subject to wear—the bow, crou n, hinges,
thuinb-catches, etc., are made of SOLID GOLD.

B&Zr'Wash-day has no terrors for the household where
DAtf'S SOAP is used, 110 unpleasant and sickening odors to fill
your houses, no laborious rubbing on the wash-board, while the
washing can be clone in one-half the time necessary by following the old
worn-out method.
MADAM —for it is to the ladies we desire to speak more especially
—you are the interested person in this matter; you it is that suffers the
ills arising from the wash-tub and its heavy cares ; you it is to whom
the perplexities and responsibilities of the household rightfully belong,
and you it is that shouid interest yourself in a trial of the qualities of this
soap, that has always proven itself to be a boon of salvation
TO SUFFERING HUMANITY.
We do not come to you with a plausible story calculated to havo
you try it, simply for the amount of money such a sale would bring us ;
we do not come to you as irresponsible parties, who have no reputation
to suffer calumny, but we do present to you this brand of soap upon an
absolute guarantee and recommendation of a well-known industrial
establishment of Philadelphia, of sixteen years' existence. Do you sup
pose for a moment it would compensate us to make false statements to
you and ruin our well-earned reputation ? No, dear reader; what we
say about DAY'S SOAP is the truth, and it is sustained by the evidences
of thousands of housewives from all over the country, besides which we
stand ready to endorse it all with ready cash.

No soda, no washing crystals, no Ives are to be used, but
simply supply yourself for the next wash day with a bar of DAT J
SOAP, then carefully read the directions and follow them to tha
exact letter, and if you don't say pitch out that old wash-boiler,
for 1 am a wiser woman, you will be thr first person we have heard o?
that has been disappointed.
WNow remember —If you don't intend to follow the directions
do not try the soap at .'ill, for unless you do this you will be disap
pointed, and then you will scold us and yourself as well.
The cost of one cake will convince you that it is the best and
cheapest soap offered you, while the smiles that will encircle your brow
will do justice to a golden sunset.
Ask your grocer for it. and do not allow him to put you off with
anything else for a substitute, for every dealer can obtain it, and shouid
