Corn is so plenty In XebrasVa that the; re using it for fuel and it I to scarce in India that millions are starvlug. This world is still bat poorly regulated wlieu such dis arepauoles are possible. The Salvation Army have burnt the : dfcvll in effigy In New York, but as lie It used to a roasting temperature this making it hot for liim by proxy is not likely to inter fere much with bis composure. Tub French are talking of dividing the day into 10 hours instead of 24. Tills will not meet with the approval of the man who has notes coming due. Even with a Si-hour day the time slips by with marvelous rapidity Senator Wolcott, of Colorado, the chair, man of the special Senate committee to ar range a bimetallic conference of the nations of the world, is going abroad to confer wjth European bimetallista on the product. The purposes of his visit are known and approved by President-elect McKinley, and his trip is made at the request of his associates on the Senatorial committee. We may now truth fully ascertain the feeling of the European nations as to bimetallism. In a prospective pugilistic encounter tho usual preliminary of fighting by the column is not neglected. The practico has its advan tages. The prise fighting outlaw, who may net be at all anxious to fight, is enabled to keep the authorities constantly informed of his whereabout and movements. This ought to insure proper interference when tho match is to he "pulled oil," But there are some person who believe that the authorities would confer a favor by compelling the bruisers to meet and exterminate eacli other. With but four working days before the expiration of his term of office, Governor Altgeld pardons twenty felon?, twelve of the number being manslayers. Some of them had beau sentenced to imprisonment for life W hen the people of Illinois elected a man like Altgald to the Oovernership of the state they invited all the dishonor that he has so lavishly heaped upon thorn. They will never elect Altgeld again, as may be gathered from the late election returns, but they should not have elected him in the first place. They deserve quite all thoy are getting, even though it be a great deal. This is what is known as tho week of prayer, when Christians all over the world are called upon to join in a concert of prayer for a variety of subjects, tho chief of which is the conversion of the heathen, tho revival of tho church aud tho extension of all the lines of Christian energy. Many of the churches of town, aro joining in this move ment each in its own way. Very naturally eatt church finds the time convenient fur the holdiirefo'T special services, aud tho put ting forth of efforts for the conversion ot those who are within the scopo of their own influence, but who have hithorto refused or nsglected to make a profession of religion. Tho services iu the churches hure are generally prospering and those in charge of thein are very hopeful of large numheis being added by profession of faith. Most of the Cuban war talk is like the gossip of the sewing society, just said to be heard. But occasionally an enthusiast takes it seriously and asks a whole lot of quostlons about getting to Cuba and into tho rebel army, and while the sympathy felt for tho insurgents is commendable tho man who contemplates a trip to Cuba to fight in the rebel army should think tho matter over very deliberately before he leaves homo. Small pox and yellow fever prevail on the island. But that is not all. To get to Cuba is not aa easy thing, for tho United States does not permit citiseus of this country to take up arms against a friendly nation, and Spain is such. Aud if a sym pathizer with Cuba should escape the vigil ance of the American authorities, when ho got to Cuba he would havo a worse enemy to evade. Ia a strange Tand, whore a strange tongue is spoken, and surrounded by Spaniards who would look upon him with suspicion from tho 11 ret, he would stand a better chance of Moro prison than of reach ing the insurgsnt army. The man who wants to enlist for Cuba will save trouble if he cools down. Thk short session of a Congress is not apt to be fruitful of important legislation, the appropriation bills and other routine measures demanding all the time, but oc casionally a non-partisan measure of great value is passed, like the civil service law, which was carried through during the winter of 1882-83. The present session seems now certain to be distinguished by the enactment of a law for the restriction of immigration more far-reaching than any ever passed. It applies 'an ednoatioaal test to all persons .aver sixteen years of age wko coma from fWeign countries, and denies admittance to those ho "cannot read and write the language of their native country or some other language," except that an admisaable immigrant over the age of sixteen may bring in with bitu, or tend for, his wife, parent, grandparent, minor child or gland child, notwithstanding the latter's inability to read and write. The house passed the bill in substantially the same form at the last session, the only changes made by the Senate belag the substitution of sixteen for fourteen as the age limit, and the addition of an ad uaptsudum proviiion allowing Cuban refugees to enter the United States, even if they are illiterate. The lower branch will doubtless accept these changes, and the President's ap proval of the bill may be expected. The en forcement of the new law will put an imme ditte and effective check upon the influx of undesirable immigrants from the countries of southern Europe iu particular.

Theru is always m ore or less suspicion attached to anything that Is offered free hut sometimes a man so overflows with generosity that he cannot rest until his discovery is known to the world, In order that his fellow men may profit by what he has discovered. It Is upon this principal that a resident of Kalamaaoo, Mich., desires to send free to mankind a prescription which will cure them of any form of nervous debility ; relieves them of all the doubt and uncertainty which such men are peculiarly liable to and restores the orgaus to natural else and vigor. As It costs nothing to try the experiment It would seem that any man, suffering with the nervous troubles that usually attack men who never stopped to realise what might bo the flual result, ought to bo deeply interested in a remedy which win restore tuem to health, strength aud vigor, without which they continue to live an existence of untold misery. As tho remedy In question was the result of many years research as to what combination would bo peouliarly effective in restoring to men the strength they need, It would seem that all men suffering with any form of nervous weakness ought to write for such a remedy at once. A request to H. C. Olds, Dox 1712, Kalamasoo, Mich., stating that you are not sending for the piescription out of idle curiosity, but that you wish to make use of the medicine by giving it a trial, will be answered promptly and without evidence as to where Information camo from. The prescription is sent free and although some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to giveaway his discovory, thoro is no doubt alwut the offer being genuine. Cut this out and send to Mr. Olds so that he may know how you came to write him. 12-88-78t ALLISON AND THE CABINET. A Ucllof That He Slay Yet lSocome One of MoKluley's Advisors. CLEVfihAND, Jan. 8. Tho slatoraont by Senator Allison In an interview with tho Assooluted Press, in Washington, to the effect that he would not bo in tho cabinet of President MoKlnloy Is not accepted ns final ho.-o. It is stated on tho highest au thority that Mr. Allison did not refuse to nooept the portfolio of tho stato depart ment In fact it Is pretty certain that Mr. MoKlnloy did not offer him tho place In so many words. Of course he doubtless suggested to Mr. Allison that he would llko to havo him In the cabinet, and it is probnblo that Mr. Allison said that he preferred to remain in the senate, without rofuslngT'Oiut blank to accopt a placo. Mr. McKlnley's frlonds believe that If the position of secretary of stuto Is offorod tp Senator Allison in a formal way ho will not rofuso to accopt It, and It is further more believed that such an offer will yot be made, In splto of what already has transpired. Ono thing is certain: It will not do to fool with a bad cold. No ono can tell what the end will bo. Pneumonia, catarrh, chronic brouchitis, if not consumption, invariably result from a neglected cold. It is surprising too, that had colds arc so often neglected when one remembers how easily and at what little expense they inaybe cured. Chain hcrlaid's Cough Itemljdy is nlwayi prompt aud ofledtml, and costs hut a trifle; 25 or 50 cents Is a trillo as compared with tho disas trous effects of a neglected cold. Mr. Abner Morcer, of Dilworthtown, Chester County, P.I., in speaking of this remedy, said : "Some time ago I had a bad cold and cough. I tried almost everything. Finally Mr. Hunt, tho d'uggist, recommended Chamberlain's Cough Eemcdy, and one 50 cent bottlo of it cured mo entirely." For bale by Gruhlor Bros., druggists. Charged uitli Heal lialiUu Swindles.
