“Cleveland is as good a man as I am,”
remarks Folger. Isn’t this slightly ego
tistic?
A leading lowa Greenbacker tells his
brethren that they had better join a live
organization. He has joined the Demo
crats.
The California indications are that the
Democrats will elect their State ticket
by 10,000 majority, and secure all the
Congressmen but one.
Senator Bayaffi made a hit when he
remarked that “Democracy is willing to
Ijo tried by any jury in the world except
in the District of Columbia.”
Doubtless our Georgia Jayhubbellites
heartily echo and re-echo Henderson’s
touching appeal to Hubbell: "For
Heaven's sake, Judge, don’t stop your
work.”
The telegraph informs us that “the
President and Cabinet have decided,
after a long discussion, to remove the
Postmistress at Manassas.” Cause—Billy
Mahone wants the office for a “striker.”
The New York Tlour pointedly re
marks that the Republican party must
put some of its leaders in jail if it means
to wid. If the G. O. P. acted on the
suggestion it would be without leaders,
or pretty nearly so.
The period ot ninety days fixed for the
presentation of plans for new steel
cruisers has expired. Only one plan was
offered. This lack of interest is due,
perhaps, to the fact that Admiral Robe
son won’t award the contracts.
“What has that man Folger ever done
for the Republican party? Nothing but
use it to get office with,” Mr. Conkling
is reported to have said. It strikes most
people that Folger is about to do the G.
O. P. the best service he could render
it—that is kill it
There isn’t a State in the Union in
which elections have yet to be held
where the G. O. P. isn’t engaged in a
family row or handicapped by local
issues, except Little Rhody. She would
like to “flop,” but Papa Anthony won’t
let her feathers grow.-
Hippie Mitchell was too hard a pill for
the Oregon Republicans to swallow, but
his law partner, Dolph, got the Senator
ship. Hippie is abundantly able to tell
Mr. Dolph what he oughtn’t to do, but
he can fiiid that out for himself by study
ing Hippie’s record.
Folger claims that Ohio upset the
stock market. If Gould ponies up for
Arthur’s man, as he is understood to
have contracted to do, there will be
•**j~ i' jli in stocks. Jay will
have to bear a
few lambs to recoup.
Mr. Howard Carroll is still running
for Congressman-at-large in New York.
The Chicago Tribune's Lakeside Musing
Man thinks that the New York
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Children will not gain any friends by its
attitude of studied neglect in this matter.
The Chicago Inter Ocean opines, from
a survey of the legislative field in Illi
nois, that if things don’t mend rapidly
there I). Davis will not succeed himself
nor give way to a Republican, but will
be succeeded by an old fashioned Bour
bon. The Inter Ocean should spare
Raum’s feelings.
Our citizens can hereafter have an op
portunity of discussing any contemplated
laws for their government if the parties
proposing them will take the trouble to
furnish the Morning News with a copy
of their bills. If they are too long to
publish in full, we will be always glad
to give correct synopses of them.
The Sesqui Centennial of Oglethorpe’s
landing on the bluff of Yamacraw is an
occasion in which every Georgian is
interested. Savannah proposes to cele
brate it in a befitting manner, and extends
a cordial invitation to her fellow citizens
from the Savannah to the Chattahoochee
and from the Blue Ridge to the Florida
line to unite with her.
We judge that some descendant of the
Pilgrims has been working a big racket
in Iceland. There is an alleged famine
there, but the enterprising hyperboreans
manage to ship fine, fat sheep at the
rate of seven thousand a week. The
Icelanders, ir the fraud was original with
them, should seek a wider sphere. The
G. O. P. is in need of recruits.
The excess of Congressional appro
priations for 1883 over those for 1882 was
neaily #79,000,000. The whole cost of
the government during the last year of
Buchanan’s administratien was but $6O/
000,000. In other words, the mere in
crease from one year to another, under
Republican rule, was #19,000,000 more
than the cost of an entire year of Demo
cratic government.
It looks as though the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia Railroad intends to
make Savannah its terminal point. This
is but natural, for prefer to
come where there are ample facilities,
and capital and nfhans for carrying on
business. There are several important
railroad combinations on the tapis which
Will probably add considerably to Sa
vannah’s trade and growth.
Secretary Folger denies the published
statement that he has directed the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing to
prepare anew design or plate in order
that gold certificates may be printed for
circulation in cities other than New
York. The Secretary says that in his
opinion the present demand for the new
certificates can be supplied through New
York.
* The Massachusetts Legislature re
arranged the Congressional districts so
that 125,000 Republicans should have
eleven ut of the twelve Congressmen,
and 110,000 Democrats should have one.
A rather similar arrangement was made
in Ohio, but the plan miscarried woe
fully. It may be premature to expect a
like result in Massachusetts, but it’s
the unexpected that frequently hap
pens.
The Postmaster General has adopted
a schedule fixing the rates at which
stamped envelopes will be sold after
January 1. The law provides that these
envelopes shall be to pur
chasers at the cost of production, and,
by the advantageous terms secured
through a'new contract, the department
is enabled to reduce the price about 10
per cent The present rate is 20 per
cent, lower than the cost under the
former contract, and the department is
now able to sell the letter sizes of these
envelopes at $1 80 per 1,000, In addition
to the postage, while the cost 12 years
ago, for an inferior article, was $4 80 per
J,OOQ.
The United States Senatorship.
Despite the fact that several gentlemen
of prominence in this State have been
mentioned in connection with the office
of United States Senator as successor to
the lamented Hill, there does not seem to
be a great deal of interest or enthusiasm
manifested in the matter. Why this is
so it is difficult to tell. Governor Col
quitj has been spoken of as more likely
than any one else to carry off the prize,
and indeed his friends assert that his
election is a foregone conclusion. It
may be that this is recognized as a fact,
and that is why we hear so much less
than usual on such occasions of the
probable chances of this or that can
didate.
Among others who have been spoken
of as worthy to receive this high honor,
is our well known fellow citizen, Hon.
A. R. Lawton. Certainly this section of
the State is entitled to some considera
tion, and if any one from amongst us
can be chosen, we know of no one who
would more creditably fill the office than
that gentleman.
As is well known, however—and as
General Lawton himself has distinctly
stated on more than one occasion—he
will not press himself for the place. If
the Representatives of his fellow citizens
in the Legislature see fit to offer him the
position, he will highly appreciate the
honor, but he very rightly takes the
ground that the office of United States
Senator is one not to be scrambled for.
In other words, he thinks the office
should seek the man and not the man
the office.
These sentiments cannot be too highly
commended, yet we greatly doubt
whether in this day and generation they
can be successfully adopted. In the
olden days of the Republic, when
honesty, capacity and integrity were the
simple requirements for positions of
honor aud trust, the office always sought
the man, and, in consequence,
the country was then represented
in all the departments of government
by her best men, and the title “American
citizen” was honored and respected by
all the nations of the earth. Since the
introduction of “practical politics” under
the auspices of Radical rule, however,
all this has been changed, and now it is
not only considered no stigma upon a
man to seek any office from President
down, but the people actually expect
every political aspirant to energetically
press his claims.
We admit that this is unfortunate, and
the sooner it is mended the better for the
country and the purification of our poli
tics. Still the practice exists, and as it
cannot be changed in a day, so it is very
evident that the United States Senator;
ship from Georgia will not at this time
be thrust upon any one who does not
strive therefor. We do not advo
cate that General Lawton, or
any one else, should do this jn
person; but if his friends really
desire his success they should be at work
even now nis behalf. They
* wl !l‘undoubtedly have a hard contest be
fore them, for Gov. Colquitt has given
Georgia a splendid administration, his
friends are earnestly working for him,
and his great popularity in the State—
which has already been proven on two
separate occasions—is unquestioned.
“A Tree and Its Fruit.”
The article in another column with
the above heading might profitably be
read by some of the editors and ccntribu
tors of papers in this part of the country.
The New York Tribune, however, from
which the article is taken, should not
forget that personal blackguardism origi
nated with one of its (now) ablest con
temporaries, whose editor adopted that
line for the purpose of introducing his
little sheet to the attention of the
rabble. That editor succeeded, made
money and died “well off” (that is, in
worldly goods; perhaps he is not so well
off now). Since his successful effort he
has had many imitators, who, in
order to make a few dollars, will, when
it is safe so to do. traduce any man’s
character, on the principle that the
paper must have something in it to make
it sell.
But such lepers, as a general rule, are
not successful. It takes a large popula
tion of roughs and pot house politicians
to support them, and, fortunately, but
few cities can boast of a sufficient num
ber of that class of readers to mske them
profitable. The Tribune comes to the
point when it says that “people who
encourage such papers are directly re
sponsible for such affairs as that of
Cockrell and Slayback. ”
Secretary Henderson refuses to say
anything concerning the authenticity of
the published Hubbell-Henderson Ma
hone correspondence of the need of more
money for use in the Virginia campaign,
but is evidently mystified by its ap
pearance. He thinks, however, that the
author is “a scavenger of the press, and
an acknowledged letter thief.” The
Washington Star reports Gen. Butler as
the responsible source, he having got
possession of the letters during his recent
visit to that city. If the Star is correct
in its suspicions the wily Benjamin has
lost none of his old shrewdness.
Morris Marks, Republican candidate
for Congress in the Second Congressional
District of Louisiana, recently made a
trip to Washington to obtain recognition
and support. He is opposed by another
Republican candidate named Demos,
and he desires that the influence of the
administration and of the Hubbell com
mittee shall be exerted for him alone.
He is said to have returned with assur
ances which gladdened his heart. Hub
bell was evidently moved by Col. Hen
derson’s pathetic appeal: “For God's
sake, Judge, brace up.”
Secretary Teller is a wise and prudent
politician. He sees how affairs are
drifting, and so proposes to keep out of
practical politics for a season so as to
give the cat a chance to jump. He an
nounces (since the Ohio election) that he
is no longer a candidate for the United
States Senate from Colorado, but that he
prefers to give attention to his private
business for a while, and let the seeking
of further political honors be a future
task when the times are more propitious.
Dr.- Bliss aits $25,000 for his services
in the case of President Garfield, Dr.
Hamilton $25,000, Dr. Agnew $14,700,
Dr. Reyburn #lO,BOO, Mrs. Dr. Edson
$lO,OOO. and Dr. Lamb $l,OOO. Dr.
Boynton has presented no bill. To meet
this sum of $&!.500 Congress has appro
priated $30,000. The latter sum should
pay the coterie for their loss of time, but
to claim anything for their skill is to ask
the public to concede too much.
Henderson’s discovery of the alleged
detect in the act redistricting Tennessee,
by which three counties were left unas
signed to any district, is opportune for
the G. O. P. after Ohio’s cold shoulder.
It is quite likely that if Henderson is
right, Clerk McPherson will be capable
of making trouble for the Tennessee del
egation, but the next House'will most
likely also be capable of making trouble
for Clerk McPherson.
The Public Conscience Toadied.
Waiving any question as to the sincer
ity of the founders of Radicalism, it is
certain that the party grew by accretions
from the marplots, malcontents and the
disaffected until, having enlisted within
its ranks the political free lances of the
land, it was enabled by the divisions of
its opponents to seize hold upon power.
Thenceforward its main capital was its
war record cant, by which it deceived
thousands of intelligent citizens into
yielding it support. And from the close
of the war down to the present time the
Radical leaders, relying upon the strength
of this same “war record,” have ignored
the limits set to their projects by
the organic law of the land, and
have used all the means that cunning
and recklessness could suggest to fur
ther their ends.
' From 1865 to 1873, their tyrannical
and corrupt practices were winked at,
but the excesses of Grantism and the
great financial revulsion that followed
the saturnalia of inflation, hurled the
cohorts of Radicalism from power. The
brief period of Democratic ascendancy
that succeeded the change in public sen
timent was marked by a retrenchment
doubly grateful to a country suffering the
hardships of financial depression, and
the native pluck of the people soon
brought about a return of prosperity.
But with it also came opportunities that
Radicalism was quick to profit by. The
changes in our financial condition en
abled that party to bid anew for the
favor and support of its old allies—the
beneficiaries of its special legislation —
and by a prodigious use of its old
methods it bought itself again into
power. There it has remained since,
and there it would, in all likelihood,
have continued till another industrial
crisis, had it not become torn to pieces
by internal wrangles over the spoils of
office.
The crack of Guiteau’s pistol, how
ever, aroused thinking people to the Re
public’s peril, but the backers of the
Radical machine were blind. Bossism
in its worst form manifested itself, and
the majority in Congress last winter con
stituted itself a band of pirates, organ
ized solely to rake the Treasury.
Brought to account, the bosses have
grown defiant and now stake all on the
power of “the machine.”
To compass their ends, they have set
up henchmen of their own wherever
possible, and avow their purpose to buy
a continuance of their control of affairs.
The employes of the government
are mulcted for the sup
port of the"' oentral and
the local machines; the beneficiaries of
Radical special legislation are bled for
the same purpose, and relying on the
power of corruption funds, the right
thinking citizens of the land are openly
defied. True, the stem rebuke that
comes from Ohio alarms the stalwart
managers somewhat, but does not cause
them to relax thgir-€Berfios. 'The cries fol.
money to corrupt the ballot box steadily
grow louder and more urgent, and even
the Secretary of the Treasury, to further
his cause in New York, stoops to the
meanest artifices of the demagogue to
alarm the masses by a willful perversion
of facts.
But stalwartism is the last and the
meanest phase of Radicalism, and so
disgusting and galling is it that thou
sands of Republicans are ready to repu
diate it and are prepared to rebuke it,
regardless of the consequences to them
selves and party. Indeed, they have
but two choices—to serve as tools to
further the ends of the bosses, or to rise
up and crush them. The favorite motto
of the bosses has always been “after us,
the deluge.” The deluge is indeed at
hand, but it is not as the reckless spoils
men pictured it. It is a deluge of public
opinion that will overwhelm those who
have set it at naught, but which, when
its force is spent, will leave the social
atmosphere freed from the impurities
that for so many years have poisoned
the body politic. As Senator Bayard
truly says, “the public conscience has
been touched,” and in its workings are
to be found the harbingers of a season
of reform in which may be sown
the seeds of honesty, patriotism and
regard for justice. That the harvest may
be plenteous, should be the hope of all
who value the well being of the Repub
lic.
Plain Facts for the Colored People.
Editor Morning News: By your per
mission, I propose to address a few sim
ple, plain truths to our colored people,
feeling the importance of the fact that
they have arrived at a period in their
history when reason and not passion
will be the controlling element in their
votes and actions.
In the first place, to all such, I desire
to say: the whites owe you a debt of
gratitude for your noble conduct and
kindness to their families while thou
sands upon thousands were absent during
the war. You could have given them a
great deal of trouble and brought dis
tresses upon them; but you did not.
You could have made the war much
more brutal and horrible, but you did
not. Hence, lam free to confess that
we owe you a debt of gratitude, and that
it is a duty for your white Southern
friends to be kind to you and advance
your material and educational interests
rs far as they can. Judging from daily
observation, and from the rapid strides
that you have made towards wealth and
intelligence, it is safe to say that you
have been kindly treated and encouraged
by the Southern whites, who are moved
by gratitude, charity and interest, for it
is greatly to our interest for you to be
prosperous and happy, since when you
are so it adds to our prosperity and hap
piness.
You were turned foot loose immedi-
ately after the war with freedman’s
bureaux established professedly for your*
relief, but while they might have done
you some good, the carpetbaggers and
scalawags appointed to distribute arti
cles got the biggest share themselves.
They induced you to put your scanty
earnings in the Freedman’s Bank and
they swindled you in that. They col
lected a tax for educational purposes
and robbed you and us out of over two
hundred thousand dollars, and but for
the Southern whites, with a few good
Northern men scattered in the country,
your lot would to cjpy be a hard one
indeed.
We have had a hard summer. The
poor man has ‘‘seen sights and heard
sounds," but not the sounds of pros
perity. The whole country is on the eve
of financial trouble, and the party in
power at Washington is responsible for
the present state of affairs and should be
repudiated. The Republican party has
fulfilled its mission, and the sooner it is
dissolved the better for all races, classes,
conditions and sections; for the only
party holding the principles that
will bring prosperity to our
common country, if properly
carried out, is the Democratic.
It is the party of the people, white and
black. It is the party of honesty and
economy. It is the party that should be
over all for all, and its candidates should
be supported, for their interests are your
interests. We are one and inseparable in
prosperity or adversity. Remember that.
The interests of the races are welded to
gether, and when you tcucb one race
vou touch both; hence the great im
portance of our living in peace and act
ing in unity politically and against the
party that looks to passion and not rea
son for success in the South.
The candidates in this Congressional
district are Colonel Nicholls, Democrat,
and Colonel Atkins, Republican.
Nicholls is the candidate of those who
give you employment by which you get
food and clothing for yourselves and
families, and is bound to legislate for the
best interests of the district, for his home
ard his heart is here. He belongs to us
and we have claims upon him, and he
stands pledged to be the friend of the
people of our section—of the white man,
of the black man, and of
all men. Personally, without reward or
the hope thereof, he has defended
many colored persons who were friend
less and penniless, and he is universally
known to be a kind man to the poor of
both races. As to Colonel Atkins he is
comparatively a stranger. It takes al
most a lifetime to find out really what a
msn is, and we had better (leaving politics
out of the question) take the man we
know the best. Then, I say, show your
appreciation of your best friends by
voting for the Democratic candidate.
A Friend op the Colored Man.

John McCullough, the actor, gave #l,OOO
to the Slayback fund in St. Louis, and be
sides this offered his services for the mati
nee benefit in behalf of the family of the
deceased, which takes place next Thursday,
and for which very large prices have been
paid for boxes and seats.
Over $8,CC3,000 worth of cotton seed meal
is imported annually into Great Britain, and
English grazers claim that through its ex
cellence as food they can compete with
Americans. It appears strange, says the
New York Sun, that Southern farmers should
allow so much of this choice feed and
splendid fertilizer to go abroad.
The last stone in the masonry of the tower
on the new capitol of Minnesota was laid on
Monday last amid the booming of artillery.
The tower rises to a height of 65 feet above
the main roof, and many persons toiled up
it and listened to congratulatory speeches
by Gov. Hubbard and Gen. Sibley. Gov.
Pillsbury, Mayor Rice, and many other gen
tlemen decided not to undergo the fatigue
of ascent.
When the supply of coal gets short else
where, the world can turn to China for
“black diamonds.” Baron Richthofen shows
that in that country the supply of anthracite
coal is not less than 630,f 73,000,00 of tons
and the bituminous coal areals jut as large.
The Baron thinks that, taking what Is left
in other parts of the world with the Chinese
coal area, we need not fear a fuel famine.
He thinks that the supply in the Chinese
province of Shansi alone will last the wojdd
about 4,200 years. ,
Not many cities ere as conveniently located
for people with differing moral affinities as
Kansas City. The State line between Mis
souri and Kansas divides it, leaving quite a
slice in the latter State, which portion of
theci'y is almost entirely given up to the
gamblers, and contains no less than nine
thriving faro banks. By going to Kansas
City, Mo., the 6ports can get tbelr allowance
of liquors In a State where there Is no pro
hibition, but strict gambling laws; and in
five minutes get into Kansas City, Kansas,
where there are no gambling laws, but strict
prohibition laws.
Before Ice became a universal luxury peo
ple were in the habit of hanging butter in
their wells to keep it cool and sweet; and
that is doubtless the custom still where ice is
scarce and dear. It must have happened a
thousand times that the cord broke and the
butter disappeared, but there can’t have
been many cases where it was recovered
after thirty years. Such an incident has
just given local fame to Mr. Goodman’s well
In Bloomfield, Conn. A workman who was
cleaning It found at the bottom a ball of
butter and the dish in which it was suspend
ed thirty years ago. The butter is pure
white, and has the consistency and odor of
spoiled cheese.
Mr. Thompson Westcott, sometimes called
“the Historian of Philadelphia,” will get
himself disliked by Pennsylvanians if he is
not careful. It has generally been supposed
that William Pen!; treated with the Indians
•inder a elm on the banks of the Dela
ware, and an obelisk at Beach and Hanover
streets, in Philadelphia, marks the spot
where the famous treaty Is supposed to have
been made. But Historian Westcott now
boldly 6ays that there is not “one shred of
evidence to bolster up this lie about Penn’s
treaty of friendship. There are no records
of It anywhere. Jn short, it rests upon no
more reasonable foundation than does the
legend of the twins of-Rome.”
General Thomas Reynolds, who was pen
sion agent at Madison, Wfs., during eleven
years ending July 1, 1877, has just been ar
rested by the United States Marshal of the
district, charged with forging pension
vouchers and appropriating to himself pen
sion money mailed to persons who have
been dead for many years. He is out on
#I,OCO bail, which the agents of the govern
ment are working vigorously to have in
creased. General Reynolds Is 70 years of
age, was Colonel of the Sixteenth Wisconsin
Regiment during the late war, and is now
Quartermaster General of the Stale militia.
He is a very warm personal friend of Gens.
Sherman and Sheridan, and the former is
always Reynolds’ guest at his suburban
home when in Madison, while the two fami
lies frequently visit back and forth. The
affair creates much excitement in Madison,
and the people naturally are very much
shocked.
A New York correspondent writes: “It
is up hill work raising money for the Ber
tholdi ‘Statute of Liberty Enlightening the
World.’ At least two committees of pri
vate citizens have been at work during the
week to see what could bfi done about it,
but the measure of success which has thus
far attended their efforts, I am sorry to say,
Is not such as to warrant the expectation
that they will be able to accomplish any
thing worth speaking of. Mr. Evarts and
the other gentlemen who have the matter
officially In charge have not commenced op
erations yet; but now that the great major
i'y of our wealthy citizens are back home,
it might be as well to see what would
come of a direct appeal to them. The
French residents and the French frequent
ers of the clubs are not very complimentary
In tbelr commentaries upon our lack of pub
lic spirit in the matter, and though we are
disposed to ridicule the idea that Boston In
stead of Bedloe’s Island will be the ultimate
resting place of Bertboldi’s great work, it Is
just possible that the thing will take that
ill'll. Somebody has suggested that as Mr.
Vanderbilt gave $90,000 to have Cleopatra’s
Needle brought over other prom
inent Wail street magnate would entitle him
self to a like measure of public gratitude by
settling the pedestal question; but, if any
thing is to be done, as the man in tbe play
says, It should be done quickly."
It Is not unlikely that considerable diffi
culty will arise in setting the claims for
war premiums under the Geneva award.
Most of the American merchant vessels
upon which war premiums were paid were
owned by a large number of different indi
viduals. Frequently a single vessel had be
tween thirty and forty owners. The Insur
ance upon her was taken out in the name of
her agent, or ship’s husband, as he is call
ed. But under existing regulations it is not
possible for him to make a demand for the
entire sum of money thus paid out, for the
claim has to be made by the individual own
ers or their heirs. This circumstance
has tended greatly to complicate
the preparation of claim demands.
It has to be shown that each claimant
was at the time of the war a citlzan of the
United States, and that he was in no way In
terested in ac s of disloyalty to the govern
ment. Probably half of the original claim
ants are now dead, and although their heirs
may be confident of the loyalty of those
from whom they have Inherited these claim*,
it may not always be easy for them to pro
vide the proof needed to legally substantiate
this fact. It would seem to be much the
best way to have the agent who paid the
war premiums make the collections on his
own responsibility. The various owners of
the vesse's could then hold him accounta
ble for the disposition he made of the money.
In the sessions of the Tariff Commission
ers, says the New York Times, the cotton
manufacturers have been conspicuous
chiefly by their absence. The reason for
this is mainlv to be attributed to the fact
that those engaged in this branch of busi
nen have come to the conclusion that pro
tection is no longer necessa.y for them.
The makers of coarse cotton cloth were long
before the war able to send their products to
China and India In competition with the
outputs of the English manufacturers. This
advantage they still possess, and, what is
more, they are now able to compete on equal
terms In the making of a finer class of fabric.
All but the very finest cotton cloth is now
made in this country at a lower cost tha In
any other country in the world. The ad
vantage which the goods of American pro
duction possess In the world’s market Is
largely found in the honesty shown In their
making. A mill owner in England expects
to receive one pound of cotton cloth for
each pound of raw cotton he purchases. In
order to secure this result the goods from
their mills have to be treated with size—as a
consequence, in a yard of English cotton
cloth, of all but the very finest quality, there
is no less than 25 per cent, of adulteration.
Cotton manufacturers In this country Inva
riably allow quite a percentage of waste,
and they buv the best cotton grown at the
Bouth, the English taking the poorer quali
ties, as a rule. In one of our mills one
pound of raw cotton rarely makes more
than twelve ounces of cotton cloth, but the
cloth when made is Infinitely better for all
purposes of wear than that which is made
and sold In England.
To be beautiful, buoyant and healthy, the
whole female constitution must maintain
regular action during a certain period of
life. Otherwise, no female can possibly re
main healthy, and she who does not. know
this fact Is quite unfortunate. Should you

with many troubles, experience advises the
use of English Female Billers as the most
wonderful female regulator and Iron tonic
in use.

Baltimore, Md., May 7, 1880.
My health was much shattered by
Rheumatism when I commenced
taking Brown’s Iron Bitters, and I
scarcely had strength enough to at
tend to my daily household duties.
I am now using the third bottle and I
am regaining strength daily, and I
cheerfully recommeud it to all.
I cannot say too much in praise
of it. Mrs. Mary E. Brasheak,

Kidney Disease Cured.
Christiansburg, Va., 1881.
Suffering from kidney disease,
from which I could get no relief, I
tried Brown’s Iron Bitters, which
cured me completely. A child of
mine, recovering from scarlet fever,
had no appetite and did not seem io
be able to cat at all. 1 gave him Iron
Bitters with the happiest results.
J. Kyle Montagus.
Heart Disease.
Vine St., Harrisburg, Pa.
Dec. 2, iBBr.
After trying different physicians
and many remedies for palpitation
of the heart without receiving any
benefit, I was advised to try Brown's
Iron Bitters. I have used two bot
tles and never found anything that
gave me so much -relief.
Mrs. Jsnnib Hess.
For the peculiar troubles to which
ladies are subject, Brown’s Iron
Bitters is invaluable. Try it.
