Dr. Jenkins, of London, claims to have
predicted the present outbreak of cholera
eleven years ago. He fears that the
plague will spread to Europe, as it origi

the disease, when it originates in India,
exhausts itself there, but, on the contrary,
is widely disseminated when it breaks out
in Arabia.
Gen. John S. Marmaduke, of Missouri,
who has Gubernatorial aspirations, says
that he is unalterably opposed to prohibi

State should adopt a prohibitory law he
would strictly enforce it. As the State is
under a high license system it is not
likely that the prohibition experiment
will soon lie tried.
Calkins, of Indiana, whom Heifer made
Chairman of the House Committee on
Elections in the last Congress, but who is
principally noted for his colossal watch
chain, says that Mahoneism is practically
Republicanism, and must be sustained by
the grand old party. Chalmers, too, he
thinks, cannot be pushed aside in Missis
sippi, and should be sustained. Calkins,
however, is a light weight.
It is said that the members of the
French legation at Washington express
the opinion lhat the De Lesseps Panama
canal scheme is a failure. The question
which presents itself is, what do the mem
bers of the French legation at Washing
ton know about the scheme ? They can
not possibly be so well informed about the
possibility or progress ot the work as a
good many other people in this country.
They may lie successful in guessing the
truth. A canal is pretty certain to be
built across Panama, but it may not be in
De Lesseps' time.
By the first of September the Central
R&iiroad will have completed another
feeder to its system—the Gainesville, Jef
ferson and Southern Railroad—from the
-town of Social Circle, on the Georgia Rail
road, to Gainesville, on the Richmond and
Danville Railroad, opening up the coun
ties of Walton, Jackson and Hall. The
country through which it passes com
prises some of the best farming lauds in
the State, heretofore far away from mod
ern means of transit. This road was part
ly built two years ago. In April last—
it was mentioned in the Mousing News
at the time —the Central Railroad, as the
lessee of the Georgia Railroad, purchased
a controlling interest in the stock, and the
work of completing it so as to connect
with its system was begun. As stated
before, it will !>e ready for business
at the opening of the coming
season. The original issue of bonds was
$183,500, and the uncompleted road has
paid the interest on them, in addition to
running expenses. The present issue of
bonds, just placed on the market by 31aj.
A. L. Hartridge and Captain Henry Blun,
amounts to $161,500, and is indorsed by
the lessees, and to secure the payment ot
principal and interest they have set aside
$250,000 of the bonds of the Atlanta and
West Point Railroad.
Dorsey’s Revelations.
Dorsey, during the progress of the star
route trial, declared that when the trial
was over he would give the public some
interesting inside facts relative to Gar
field’s election and administration. He is
keeping his promise. He is making dis
closures that will go a long way towards
making the name of Garfield a synonym
for all that is mean, treacherous aud dis
honorable in politics. Few men have been
so lauded as Garfield. The manner of his
death touched the popular heart, and only
those things' were remembered which
gave him the character of a great and
good man. No doubt he bad many admir
able qualities, and his ability will hardly
be questioned. The further he recedes,
however, the less firm is the belief that
he was a pure patriot and a high-minded
statesman. Less than a month ago Dor
si y published in the New York Sun letters
which gave a pretty fair idea of the cor
rupt methods that w ere employed to carry
Indiana in October, 1880. The letters lett
no doubt that Garfield and all of the Re
publican leaders were thoroughly familiar
with those methods. In Monday’s Sun
fifteen chapters more are given
covering the national contest of
1880 and the first days of
Garfield’s administration. What a his
tory of bargains, broken promises,corrup
tion and deceptions is given in these
chapters! The man who has been held
up before the w orld as one of the grandest
characters of the country, is dwarfed into
the proportions of an ordinary politician.
That Garfield knew all about the star
route frauds there is hardly a doubt. He
required the money furnished by the con
tractors to make his canvass, and he ac
cepted their ottering without raising the
question of the illegality of their con
tracts. A need of money induced
him to meet a syndicate of Wall
street bankers in the Fifth Avenue
Hotel, and bargain away the right
to name his Secretary of the Treasury,
and to agree that certain New York
bankers should have the handling of the
rapidly maturing five i>er cent, and six
per cent, bonds, which were to l>e re
funded into bonds bearing a lower rate of
interest. The need of money also induced
him to promise Jay Gould that if a
vacancy occurred in the Supreme Court,
during his term of office, it should be filled
by a man who was hostile to the Thur
man aet. The purport of the Thurman
act was, as everybody knows, to
com 1 8* 1 the Union Pacific Railway
to comply with its obligations
to the government. It is freely asserted
that Stanley Matthews was appointed a
Justice of the Supreme Court in pursu
ance of this agreement with Jay Gould.
The money thus gathered up from star
route contracts. Jay Gould, Wall street
bankers and others, amounting, it is said,
to at least two millions of dollars, was
scattered freely in the doubtful States. In
Indiaua crisp new two-dollar bills were
placed in the hands ol about all doubtful
voters. Garfield ismglit his way to
the Presidency with money obtained
in w ays that admit of neither delense nor
excuse. He had no soouer been inaugu
rated than he was overwhelmed with de
mands to fulfill the promises he had
made. The iniquities of the Republican
party in the campaign of 1880 are not
likely to tie repeated. The star route
prosecutions have shut off the money sup
ply from the mail contractors. The civil
service aet has put an end to political as
sessments, and the prospect of Republi
can success in ls*4 is so unpromising that
Wall street will hardly contribute any
thing-to a corruption fund.
Tin* Telegraphers’ Troubles.
The rejiorteil impending strike of the
telegraph operators, should it take place,
would lie one of the most formidable
labor revolts ever set on foot. The
Telegraphers’ Brotherhood, membership
in which is open to every oi>erator
in the United States and Canada,
numbers 13,000. The organization was
formed in 1881, taking the place of the
Telegraphers’ Protective Union. The
brotherhood is allied with the Knights of
Labor, the membership of w hich aggre
gates 2,000,000, and upon the moral and
jiecuniary support of which the telegraph
ers can rely. The average pay of railway
operatives is less than s•’>.> per month,
and of commercial operators about $55.
The whole number of operators in the
I'nited States and < anada is about twenty
thousand. The bill of grievances pre
sented by the brotherhood has been rati
fied by every assembly of the order; but a
strike, it is said, will only tie ordered in
the last emergency. •
Should the demand for better pay and
less work be refused, and the strike take
place, not only strictly telegraphic busi
ness would cease, but railway travel and
traffic w ould come to a stand still, as the
telegraph is now the most important
adjunct to the railway business. Presi
dent Orton testified under oath before
a Congressional committee some years ago
that more than six hours work
a day continuously was incompatible with
the health of operators. So that, irre
spective of the question of compensation,
the operators, in demanding that eight
hours shall constitute a day’s work, and
that extra service be paid for, would seem
to be asking no more than justice. The
issue of the movement will be watched
with interest.
In the early part of June the New York
Times sent out 400 letters to as many
jioints in the 148 States, inquiring, among
other things, who were most often men
tioned for the Presidency, and requesting
the names of all who were spoken of in
connection with the office of President.
Three hundred and forty-four replies
were received. On the part of the Repub
licans Blaine heads the list. One hundred
andj three of the replies favored him.
President Arthur comes next with sixty
four. On the part of the Democrats Til
den is easy first —one hundred and twenty
of the replies favoring him. McDonald
comes next with seventy-two and a half.
If these replies indicate anything it is
that Mr. Tilden stands the best chance of
getting the Democratic nomination if he
desires it and will make an effort for it.
Nearly all the replies from the South on
the Republican side favored Arthur. This
may be taken as meaning that he is pretty
certain of the 306 Southern votes in the
next national convention.
A careful reading of the dispatch rela
tive to the seizure of melons from Savan
nah, published in the Morning News
yesterday, does not bear out the impres
sion which seems to have got abroad that
the melons were condemned. It is proba
ble that the Press dispatch, and the dis
patch received by the agent of the steam
ship company that the cargo was sold for
$25 per hundred, are both correct. It is
admitted that a few of the melons
were in a damaged condition, due
to the carelessness of the shippers, per
haps, and these damaged few were in all
probability the occasion of the seizure.
That the melons were sold for $25 per
hundred is satisfactory evidence that
only a few were damaged, and that the
entire shipment was not condemned. There
is no occasion for alarm among the grow
ers. If they will see to it that their mel
ons are shipped in good condition they
may feel reasonably certain that they will
reach the consignees in prime order.
A correspondent living in Talladega,
Alabama, says that Savannah has se
cured about 9,000 bales of cotton a year
by the completion of the Columbus and
Western Railway to Goodwater. He says
that if the road is completed to Talladega
and then to Birmingham Savannah will
secure about 10,000 more bales annually.
This cotton, raised in the neighborhood of
Talladega, he says, goes to Mobile,
Charleston, New York and New Orleans.
It is distributed to widely different i*oints,
but could all be controlled by Savannah
if there were proper transportation facili
ties. Our correspondent’s suggestion has
already been acted upon to a certain ex
tent. The route of the proposed exten
sion has been inspected, and there
is every reasou to believe that it will be
built within a reasonable time.
The death is announced from nervous
exhaustion of Edward Spenser, late edi
tor and chief of the Baltimore Sun. Mr.
Spenser was a native of 3laryland. He
was one of the most scholarly and forci

ted by a wide circle of friends.
The Old Ticket.
Despite the conflicting statements made
as to the physical condition of Hon. Samuel
J. Tilden and the at times seeming inde
cision of Hon. Thomas A. Hen
dricks to accept second place on
the next Democratic Presidential
ticket there is every indication
that the “old ticket” finds favor in many
quarters, and that efforts are making to
secure its renomination next year. At
present it would appear that sentiment,
rather than persuasion as to the availa
bility of the “old ticket” is at
the bottom of this movement.
However, strong, this sentiment may
have been in 1880, when the memory of
the great fraud was fresh and the neces
sity for “historic justice” was apparent,
Mr. Tilden blocked its play by his positive
refusal of the honor sought to be con
ferred upon him, and Mr. Hendricks les
sened the numlier of his admirers by his
overpersuasion of his own ini pittance.
The old ticket was eminently proper in
1880 —it was opportune. If nominated to
day it would be deprived of half
its significance. The “great fraud”
is no longer an issue. Limi
tations may be said to have operated,
and if it is urged at all in the next cam
paign, it can only lie used as evidence
against Radicalism, together with the
rest of the scandals and crimes that have
disgraced the Republican party. We are
far from being persuaded that Mr.
Tilden is the only man who can
poll the united vote of the Demo
cratic party, but if the representatives of
the party in their wisdom should deem it
best that he sbould lie invited to take the
Democratic standard, we believe he would
carry it to victory. Should he be selected
he would have an able lieutenant in the
person of Mr. Hendricks. That the old
ticket may be selected is among the possi
bilities, but is hardly probable. .Vs the
time for making the decision, however, is
somewhat remote it might be well to
await the effect that the conduct of the
incoming Congress may have upon the
public nnnd.
Upon the wisdom, courage and sinceri
ty of the Democratic majority in the next
House more will depend than iqion the
choice of standard bearers in 1884. The
w ork of that majority may render easy or
make difficult the task of the Democratic
leaders in ’94. If the Democratic majori
ty is faithful to the trust reposed in
it, it will earn the success
of the party. 11 it blunders or falters, or
gives way to cowardice, the battle for
supremacy may lie lost ere it is begun.
Let the party’s principles be clearly de
fined and strictly adhered to, aud the
selection of the Presidential ticket will be
vastly simplified.
A Successful Truck Farmer.
Mr. F. J. Roberts, of Leon county, Fla.,
may le numbered among the successful
truck farmers of that State. In raising
Irish potatoes this year he seems to have
excelled all his neighbors. He sold early,
obtained good prices, and is satisfied with
his experiments. The Land of Flowers
says Mr. Roberts will try it again next
year and will increase the numlier of
acres planted to fifty. He began three
years ago by planting one-fourth of an
acre. The next year he planted four
acres, and the third twenty acres, making
a clear profit of SSO per acre, which, he
says, is better than he can do planting
anything else. His faith is growing
stronger in the profits of truck farming,
and, in addition to a large increase of po
tatoes, he is contemplating a venture of
fifty acres in watermelons. The success
of Mr. Roberts with potatoes is all the
more gratifying because liis plantation is
distant from any railway station or ship
ping point ten or twelve miles, necessi
tating the great inconvenience of hauling
that distance to Tallahassee. His secret
is in getting his potatoes ready
for market at an early date, be
fore competition springs up in more
northern localities. Middle and East
Florida have an advantage over almost all
other sections of the country in the mat
ter of very early crops. The truck farmers
of these sections can raise about all
kinds ol truck very nearly a month ear
lier than the same crops can be raised
further north. They have practically a
monopoly of the early truck farming busi
ness, and as they always have a ready
and a good market they ought to get
handsome returns from their farms.
Industrial and Scientific Schools.
The enormous growth of industries in
the north cantons of Switzerland are ac
counted for in their industrial and scien
tific schools. There was nothing promis
ing in the soil, the climate or situation of
that rocky and sterile region, says Mr.
Charles Dudley Warner, but an industrial
school of mining, engineering, chemistry,
and the applied arts was established, and
the immediate result of it was an indus
trial growth and prosperity almost unex
ampled in Europe. It was all created
by that school and its superb train
ing. That school made skilled
workmen and inventive brains, and
the men who came out of it traifsformed
that country into one of the busiest and
most profitable in the world. “I can tell
you another ojien secret,” remarks Mr.
Warner. “Little Connecticut, which De
Toequeville called ‘that leetle spot on
the map,’ a State where everything is
manufactured, from a pin to a steam en
gine, a State of wondrous invention and
ingenuity, owes much, very much, and
will owe more, year by year, to the train
ing of her youth in the Scientific School at
New Haven.”

Cincinnati Xevce-Journal.
The carefully manufactured stories of

the State, which we publish elsewhere.
There is no disaffection.
Sentiment Versus Sense.
Fete York Star.
If this merely sentimental idea of re
nominating the old ticket on the plea of
“histone justice” shall prevail, the re
sponsibility must rest with the friends of
Mr. Tilden". The wisdom of such a step
will be best determined by the convention
when it meets. But it should not lie for
gotten that it will require no common ef
fort to displace the Republicans from
power in ’B4. They have fortified them
selves by over twenty years ot official
power and plunder, and will make one of
the most desperate political fights our
country ever witnessed. No divided or
distracted antagonist can hope to over
come them.

strikes us that the old philosopher hit the

SELECTING A PRESIDENT.
Standard Bearers of two Great Parties—
Blaiue Leading the Republican Can
didates—Tllilen the Preference of the
Democratic Masses.
Few York Timet.
Early in June the Times sent letters to
over four hundred points in the thirty
eight States asking answers to the fol
io wingquestions :
I. —Who is most frequently spoken of
by Republicans in your vicinity as their
first choice for Presidential candidate in
1884?
11. What other names are mentioned?
111. Who is most frequently mentioned
by Democrats in your neighborhood as
their first choice for Presidential candi
date in 1884?
lA~.—What other names are mentioned,
in about what order, as indicating their
popularity ?
Answers have been received from 344 of
these points, the number varying from
44 in New York to 1 in Nevada —or an
average of 9 from each State. The at
tempt has been to obtain the preferences
of the people—the voters—rather than the
choice of the workers of political ma
chinery, and the reading of the letters
will show how carefully the correspond
ents of the Times have followed this plan,
while not ignoring the efforts of the lead
ers to create preferences for their personal
favorites. The information has been
gathered by trustworthy men of both par
ties, whose interests oblige them to keep
thoroughly informed in political matters,
and their" reports will show that they
have made personal canvasses in order to
present the drift of opinion. That they
have given this as they found it is proved
by the fact that in many instances the
showing was not in accord with their own
personal preferences. Tfce result as here
given may lie trusted, therefore, as ac
curately outlining the present desires of
the members of the two great parties.
The attention of the Republican party
is now directed towards the following
Presidential candidates, 41 in number:
Adams, Charles Francis, Jr., of Massa
chusetts.
Allison, AVilliam, of lowa,
Arthur, Chester A., of New York.
Blaine, James G., of Maine.
Conger, Omar D., of Michigan.
Conkling, Roscoe, of New York.
Crook, Gen, George, of Ohio.
CuUom, Shelby M., of Illinois.
Davis, David, of Illinois.
Edmunds, George F., of Vermont.
Evarts, William M., of New' York.
Fairchild. Lucius, of AA'isconsin.
Forakcr, Joseph 8., of Ohio.
Foster, Charles, of Ohio.
Frelingliuysen, Frederick TANARUS., of New
Jersey.
Grant, Ulysses 8., of New York.
Gresham, Walter Q., of Indiana.
Hale, Eugene, of Maine.
Halsey, George A., of New Jersey.
Harrison, Benjamin, ot Indiana.
Hawley, Joseph 11., of Connecticut.
Hoyt, Henry M., of Pennsylvania.
Kasson, John A., of lowa.
Lincoln, Robert TANARUS„ of Illinois.
Logan. John A., of Illinois.
Low, Beth, of New A'ork.
MacVeagh, AVayfie, of Pennsylvania.
Miller, Samuel F., of lowa.
Oglesby, Richard J., of Illinois.
Phelps, William Walter, of New Jersey.
Porter, Albert G., of Indiana.
Potts, Frederic A., ofNew Jersey.
Raum, Green 8., of Illinois.
Seward, Clarence A., of New York.
Sheridan, Philip H., of Ohio.
Sherman, John, of Ohio.
Sherman, Gen. William TANARUS., of Ohio.
Teller, Henry M., of Colorado.
AVashburne. Elihu 8., of Illinois.
Wilson, JamesF., of lowa.
Windom, AVilliam, of Minnesota.
Of these, 18 are mentioned, In various
sections of the 38 States, as the lirct choice
of the Republicans. Mr. Blaine, Uw.
ever, is head and shoulders in front of the
others, being named as the preference at
103, or nearly one-third of the number 01,
points where a choice is expressed. Apart
from his own State, he finds most favor in
the Middle and AVestern States—nearly
all the great Republican States —and hi’s
strength is probably greater than is thus
indicated, as in many instances a prefer
ence is expressed for others in the belief
that he will not enter the race. President
Arthur is next in strength, and his friends
are pretty evenly distributed
throughout the country, and the
favorable feeling toward him is almost
everywhere reported as increasing con
stantly. In the South the office-holders
are noted as of course in his interest. It
is clearly shown in the letters from the
South that a large part of or indeed the
entire vote of that part of the country
will lie cast in the National Convention
lor Chester A. Arthur. There is no rea
sonable doubt to be entertained at present
that the 306 votes of the old slavehblding
States will be given to the present incum
bent of the Presidendial chair. Mr.
Blaine and every other candidate must
face this solid fact. Third in the contest
is Mr. Edmunds, and not much behind
Mr. Arthur. His strength also is very
evenly distributed in the different States,
and the expression in his favor, perhaps
more than in any other case, appears to
lie spontaneous and due entirely to his
merits. He is stronger, indeed, as a sec
ond choice than as first, and leads the
other candidates when that question is
considered. These three gentlemen
receive the voice of 224 ya of the 824
places which express a preference—
Blaine, 103; Arthur, 64; Edmunds.
b~l4. Robert T. Lincoln stands promi
nently among the new candidates, only
three, General Grant, John Sherman and
General Logan, coming between him and
the leaders. He is everywhere kindly
spoken ot. and his ability and honored
name make him regarded as a good man
for the office. The possibility of his selec
tion is rarely left out of the discussions.
The following of all the gentlemen, after
the three leaders, is small, and in some
cases merely the expression of compli
mentary wishes for “favorite sons.”
i The number of aspirants for the Demo
cratic nomination is forty, and their
names are as follows:
Bayard, Thomas F., of Delaware.
Black, Jere S., of Pennsylvania,
Brown, Joseph E., of Georgia.
Butler, Benjamin F., of Massachusetts.
Carlisle, John G., of Kentucky.
Cleveland, Grover, of New Y'ork.
Cox, Samuel S., of New York.
Dana, Charles A., of New York.
Davis, David, of Illinois.
Eaton, AVilliam AV., of Connecticut.
English, AA'illiam H., of Indiana.
Field, Stephen J., of California.
Flower, Roswell P., of New York.
Hancock, Winfield S., of New York.
Harrison, Carter 11., of Illinois.
Hendricks, Thomas A., of Indiana.
Hewitt, Abram S., of New York,
lloadly, George, of Ohio.
Holman, AVilliam S., of Indiana.
Jewett, Hugh J., ofNew A'ork.
Helly, John, of New York.
McClellan, George 8., ofNew York.
McDonald, Joseph E., of Indiana.
Morrison. AVilliam R., of Illinois,
Niblaek, AVilliam E„ of Indiana,
Palmer, John M„ of Illinois,
Parker, Joel, of New Jersey.
Pattison. Robert E., of Pennsylvania.
Payne, Henry 8., of Ohio.
Pendleton, George H., of Ohio.
Randall, Samuel J., of Pennsylvania.
Randolph, Theodore F., ofNew Jersey.
Thurman, Allen G., of Ohio.
Tilden, Samuel J., of New York.
Trumbull, Lyman, of Illinois.
Trunkey, John, of Pennsylvania,
Vilas, AVilliam F., of Wisconsin.
Voorhees, Daniel AV,, of Indiana,
AA’allace William A,, of Pennsylvania.
AVitbeck, William F., of Indiana.
Eighteen of these stand forth as claim
ants of first choice. Perhaps it is be
cause of the sentiment of “justice” so
often heard from Democratic lips: per
haps it is because of tbehistoricai “fiar’l”
—whatever is the cause, however, Samuel
J. Tilden leads his party even more mark
edly than Blaine leads in the Republican
feeling. Two-fifths of the points report
ing award him first choice, and his
strength—again like that of Blaine—
would have been increased if he bad come
out plumply and demanded the nomina
tion. It is not always the “old
ticket,” however, as Hendricks
seems to have fallen into disfavor
in some quarters. There are only seven
States which give Tilden no favor, and
there appears little doubt at present that
he can be the nominee if he desires. Mc-
Donald comes next to Tilden— points
to the latter’s 120. Geographically, the
Eastern, 3liddle, and extreme Western
States alone disfavor him, and in these he
is displaced mainly bv Butler,
Bayard, and Thurman. He makes
a very strong showing as second
choice. Apparently, he is looked upon as
the next best man to Tilden. Bayard
has a meagre following— points—and
apparently a hopeless one, judging from
the talk of his admirers. With most of
them his candidacy has become a treas.
ured sentiment—a quadrennial sacrifice
at the altar of friendship. The aggress
ive Butler comes next. Massachusetts
sustains him, and that is about all
there is ot him. The sentiments of
the Democracy in regard to him
exhibit every feeling, from the ut
most contempt, through respectful
fear and mild astonishment, to alleged
genuine admiration. Thurman has a
very modest support, and the field follows.
It must be borne in mind, however, in
setting up Democratic standard-bearers,
that Iloadly, of Ohio, with an “if” at
tached to him, looms up ready to smash
all slates. If he is elected Governor of
Ohio, he may lead all in the race for the
Democratic nomination, but for the pres
ent, therefore, he is a conditional candi
date.

SIGNIFICANT SPRING.
A Dissertation Upon Its Advent, and
Its Effeet Upon Mankind.
“a he green leaf of the new come Spring.”—
SAak.
Everybody recognizes spring, when it is
once upon tis, but many persons are not
familiar with the exact date of its appear
ance. Webster, the world-renowned lexi
cographer gives us a definition, which
may not be inappropriate here. “Spring,”
says he, “is the season of the year when
plants begin to vegetate and rise; the
vernal season, comprehending the months
of March, April and May, in the middle
latitudes north of the equator.”
Thomson, in his “Seasons,” and Shake
speare in many of his works, have, per
haps, no peers in describing it, and yet
“etherial spring” is freighted with mala
ria, ‘"that insidious foe, lurking unseen in
the very air we breathe.” It spreads over
the fairest portions of our land; brings
death and disease to thousands; cuts off
scores upon scores of our children and
youth, as well as those in advanced life.
A pestilence is regarded with little less
apprehension, and people everywhere are
asking, “what is it?” “Where does it
come from?” “What will cure it?”
Kidney-Wort, as a Spring Medicine.
When you begin to lose appetite; have
a headache, a pain in your side, back and
shoulders; to toss about at night in rest
less dreams; wake in the morning with a
foul mouth and furred tongue; feel disin
clined to go about your work, heavy in
body and oppressed In mind; have a fit of
the blues; when your urine gets scanty
or nigh colored; to suffer with constipa
tion, diarrlura, or indigestion; have a
pasty, sallow face, dull eyes, and a
blotched skin; one or all of these common
complaints will certainly be evidence
that your liver is disordered, torpid, > •
perhaps diseased. A bottle of Kidney
Wort is, under such circumstances, ’
priceless boon to such a person.
Bare assertions of proprietors hate
come to possess less force than they fre
quently merit. The cause of this condition
of popular skepticism is, in the main, to
lie found in the fact that charlatanism
covers our broad land. Meritorious arti
cles are too frequently found in bad com
pany.
The proprietors of Kidney-Wort always
prove all their assertions' touching the
merits of their preparations. When we
affirm, therefore, that Kidney-Wort is a
specific for just such disorders as have
been mentioned in this article, the proof,
too, belongs to and shall follow this state
ment.
A Physician’s Experience.
Dr. 11. K. Clark, a regular physician of
extensive practice in Grand Isle county,
and a worthy deacon of the Congregational
Church, at South Hero, Vt., has used
Kidney-Wort for several years in his
practice, and before the present proprie
tors purchased an interest in it, he had
given his unbiased opinion in its favor.
This opinion has not changed. It has done
better than any other remedy 1 have ever
used, ’ ’ says the Doctor, and further on he
writes: “I do not recollect an instance
where the patient to whom I have given
it has failed to receive benefit from its
use, and in some severe eases most de
cidedly so.” These are strong words.
They are from a representative, conscien
tious, ever-approachable public citizen,
however, and—better still—they are true.
Kidney-Wort will bear all the enconi
miums lavished upon it by its friends—
and their name is legion. “/ will swear
by Kidney-Wort all the time,” writes Mr.
J. It. Kauffman, of Lancaster, Pa. We
will supplement this by asserting, as a
m..tter of fact, and one capable of demon
stration, that all honest patrons of this
remedy are in friends and advocates. ’

M. NOTED HUT UNTITLED WOMAN.
[From the Boston Globe.]
Mens-, *. Editors
The above is a good likeness of Mrs. Lydia E. Pink
ham, of Lynn, Mass., who above all other human beings
may be truthfully called the “Dear Friend of Woman,’*
as some of her correspondents love to call her. She
is zealously devoted to her work, which is the outcome
of a life-study, and is obliged to keep six lady
assistant*, to help her answer the large correspondence
which daily pours in upon her, each bearing its special
burden of suffering, or Joy at release from it. Her
Vegetable Compound is a medicine for good and not
evil purposes. I have personally investigated it and
am satisfied of the truth of this.
On account of its proven merits, it Is recommended
and prescribed by the best physicians in the country.
One says: *‘lt works like a charm and saves much
pain. It will cure entirely the worst form of falling
of the uterus, Leucorrhoea, irregular and painful
Menstruation, all Ovarian Troubles, Inflammation and
Ulceration, Floodings, all Displacements and the con
sequent spinal w eakness, and is especially adapted to
the Change of Life.’*
It permeates every portion of the system, and gives
new life and vigor. It removes faintness, flatulency,
destroys all craving for stimulants, and relieves weak
ness of the stomach. It cures Bloating. Headaches,
Nervous Prostration, General Debility, Sleeplessness,
Depression and Indigestion. That feeling of bearing
down, causing pain, weight and backache, is always
permanently cured by its use. It will at all times, and
under all circumstances, act in harmony with the law
that governs the female system.
It costs only sl. per bottle or six for $5., and is sold by
druggists. Any advice required as to special cases, and
the names of many who have been restored to perfect
health by the use of the Vegetable Compound, can be
obtained by addressing Mrs. P., with stamp for reply,
at her home in Lynn, Mass.
For Kidney Complaint of either sex this compound is
unsurpassed as abundant testimonials show.
u Mrs. Pinkham’s Liver Pills,” says one writer, ** are
the best in the world for the cure of Constipation,
Biliousness and Torpidity of the liver. Her Blood
Purifier works wonders in its special line and bids fair
to equal the Compound in its popularity.
All must respect her as an Angel of Mercy whose sole
ambition Is to do good to others.
