A special agent of the Mexican govern ment is in London negotiating for a loan to readjust the national debt. That country is not yet able to abandon the policy of “robbing Peter to pay Paul.” A Memphis paper has had the audacity to hoist as its Presidential ticket Benja min F. Butler, of Massachusetts, and Isham G. Harris, of Tennessee. Is there no law in that State to protect its Sena tors? They say that “Gath” employs two stenographers on his letters, and talks fast enough to keep them both busy. It this be so he ought to be excused for oc casional “errors in facts,” for it’s a stand ard maxim that “a man can’t talk very , r ;ch and always tell the truth.” law is b- Southern Cadets, of Macon, are ,i ’g to hold a fair some time during ■ of this month for the purpose money to make improvements tvarmory. They are asking contri butions. They are deserving of all the aid that can be extended to them. A woman has been arrested in New York for teaching the school children how to gamble. She had a large demon’s head •whose mouth was a red flannel bag. The child who threw a ball into the mouth re ceived a prize. There is always a de mon’s head about gaming schemes. Dr. Bosse, after two visits to Alaska, has discovered that the principal vice of the natives of that region is “a fondness lor games of chance.” As these people have little opportunity to gambol on the green, they are somewhat excusable for gambling in their subterranean homes. The hulks of the old United States ves sels Worcester, Savannah and Shawmut, at Norfolk navy yard, have been sold, and will be towed to Cow Bay, Long Island Smiudr-and cut up for scrap iron. The country will be grateful that no more money ( s to be spent for repairs on them. I —— Chattanooga furnishes the first triple wedding that has been announced for some time. On Wednesday three sisters, named McClure, were married at the - time church, by the same minister and j. ere united bv one ceremony. The three uples then left for a bridal tour to .‘,’Clher. *’ hey say a touch of nature makes the world akin; and now the great , ( .h c iee Bismarck has acted like a silly Thu»ol-boy in forbidding the transfer of a P'isburg regiment to other duty, on the j’ ‘bind that such a change now, though 7: months ago, would seem to pro- I-., :m|?be Paris mob. A sc- •.lust on the heel of the recent explosions in London came the municipal elections all over the kingdom day before yester day, and large Conservative gains are heralded. After, all the excitement may have been the result of a little bloody, shi i t electioneering scheme devised by the powers that be. It is a poor State that has nothing to brag on. The Cincinnati Times-Star boasts that the Ohio penitentiary made $52,000 profits last year, and yet was not as weil patronized as it ought to have been. It won’t do to reduce the Republi can vote in that State any more until after the Presidential election. Doctor Tanner is about to be outdone by a horse thief in the Easton, Pa., jail. He is in the twenty-sixth day of his fast and lias lost thirty pounds in weight. Unlike Doctor Tanner, he lias not com mitted the blunder of gaining in weight on any single day. He boasts that he will surpass the Doctor’s record by ten days. The question "Is there a standard of taste?” is an old one, and to judge from the dramatic criticisms on the acting of Henry Irving, as pertinent as ever in the past. Os ten New York newspapers, no two agree as to the merits of the Englishman’s acting, while the division of favorable find adverse criticism is about half and half. And now comes the news that the great New England fanatic and crank, Wendell Phillips, is an outspoken advocate for Governor Butler’s re-election; and of the great Republican party he says: “Most of its leaders are hungry for office, and with the rest it is a conspiracy for plun der.” Yet Wendell was the godfather of the same Republican party. The name of Elizabeth Patterson, the beautiful Baltimorean who married Je rome Bonaparte, brother of the great Na poleon, and afterwards King of West phalia, again comes before the country. Iler estate has been sued by both the State of Maryland and the city for four years taxes. The amount due is a snug little sum, as she was quite wealthy. The tirst round in the legal fight between the Marietta and North Georgia Railroad and the lessees of the Penitentiary con victs has been won by the railroad. The railroad, under a resolution passed at the last session of the Legislature, claims that it is entitled to have its number of convicts kept up to 250. This claim the lessees deny. The case goes to a higher court. If Kilbourn, in his testimony in his suit against Sergeant-at-Arms ot the House of Representatives Thompson for $350,000, did not keep closer to the truth than when he stated that P. M. B. Young, of this State, who was a member of the Forty-sixth Congress, had a large amount of money in a Washington real estate pool, he is not a very reliable witness. Mr. Young is out in a card in which he denies that he was ever mixed up in any of the pools for making money in Washington real es tate. The Nashville American carps at the fact that Kentucky has received the whale’s part in the government fish dis tribution. It says, while it don’t want to appear finical or offishous, the thing looks scaley, and somebody ought reely to drop a line to our piscatorial President on the subject. The Tennessee suckers evidently don’t relish the fly that is being thrown to hook the Kentucky trout. After all, Proctor Knott’s fishing pole wasn’t en tirely thrown away. Tennessee ought to send the President a gourd of bait. Newspaper Postage. The Postmaster General is being urged to recommend a reduction in newspaper postage, and the impression is that he will. He will not, of course, recommend that one newspaper be allowed to be sent for 1 cent, because parties would impose on the department by putting more than one paper in a wrapper. At present, one or more newspapers can be sent for 1 cent, provided the package does not weigh more than two ounces. There are many newspapers, however, which when wrapped and stamped, ready for mailing, weigh a fraction over two ounces, and then a two cent stamp must be used. Many newspapers, which ordinarily weigh less than two ounces weigh a lit tle more on occasions of trade, or other special editions. The public do not take notice of this fact, and, consequently, thousands of papers never reach their destination. If the Postmaster General makes any recommendation it will proba bly be that the weight of newspaper mat ter, which one cent postage will carry, be increased to two and a half or three ounces. Newspapers in their efforts to reach the public are entitled to all the aid that can be extended to them. The impression that newspapers are bonanzas to their proprietors is a mistake. There are comparativijy few really prosperous papers in the country. The majority of those which make a great show of pros perity are heavily in debt, and barely manage to make the receipts meet the expenses. To make a good newspaper requires the investment of a large sum of money. A newspaper that gets a fair circulation and a good advertising busi ness pays, of course, but it requires long years of toil to get these, and when they are obtained it takes skill, judgment and constant increase of expenses to keep them. The day when a newspaper can be published for a little more than the cost of paper, ink and type setting is past. The public now- want the news. They care very little for long es says. Not only must the local news be carefully collected and edited, but the important news of the whole world must appear in every day’s issue. It must be presented in an attractive manner and, when necessary, must be commented on with judgment and intelligence. To make a newspaper now-a-days that commands a respectable circulation demands a large force of editors and reporters and a lib eral use of the telegraph. A paper which has an enormous circulation, like some of the New York dailies, can afford to reduce its price, but it hopes to recover in its advertising business whatever re duction it makes in its price. When the Herald reduced its price to two cents it increased its advertising rates. It is the impression, however, that one or more of the two cent New York dailies will find it impossible to meet expenses. They haven’t a circulation that will sustain them, and they cannot get business without circulation. Good newspa pers cannot be published away from the great cities as cheaply as they can in them because the circulation cannot be obtained, and because it costs more to get the news. Newspapers are now sold in all parts of the country for as little as they can afford to be sold. When ever a paper begins to make money com petition and the demand for more news impose additional expenses. It the Post master General concludes to recommend a reduction of newspaper postage the re commendation will be in the interest of the public and not the newspapers. The Streets in the Burnt District. The City Council have under considera tion the improvement of Yamacraw, and have temporarily suspended the grant ing of building permits in the burnt dis trict until the special committee having the matter in charge can make their re port. By widening some of the streets and extending others through to the Ogee chee canal better facilities for communi cation with the western wharves and the warehouses and mills will be obtained, and the value of property in that locality will be greatly increased. As stated in the Morning News yesterday, River street can be readily widened, there being only three buildings to be removed, or rather, parts of them to be removed. Joachim street can be extended by purchasing the right of way through the Stubbs warehouse. To secure a broad street from West Broad street to tjie canal Indiaq street lane might be widened on the south side. This Is thought to be the easiest and best method of securing the desired thoroughfare, as there is not a house standing on either side of the lane. The city has the power to take property necessary for opening streets, and pay for it in accordance with the law provided in such cases. The whole of Indian street lane, excepting two houses, was occupied by old one-story buildings, the value of which was not great. If it were possible it would be best for the city to purchase the entire burnt dis trict, from Joachim to Indian street, and re-plat it, but this will hardly be done. There is a decided inclination upon the part of many, in view of the very valuable mills, warehouses, wharves, etc., in Yam acraw, to bring it within the “brick zone” so as to provide against another calamity in that part of the city. The Mayor and Aidermen are taking a lively interest in the matter. ’lt is to be hoped they will see their way clear to make the necessary improvements. A Generous People. We do not believe in boasting of chari table deeds, but we think it is only just to our citizens to say that the generous way in which they have responded to the calls for aid for the sufferers by the late fire is worthy of the highest commendation. There has been contributed in cash nearly SB,OOO, and about $2,000 in groceries and provisions. The sum of s7ll 25 was handed in to the Morning News office in small sums. The money was not solicited. It was the free gift of people who felt that they wanted to give something. If all the sutlerers had been white, instead of nearly all colored, there would not have been a greater display of charity. Telegrams were sent from d iffer ent localities offering aid, but it was de clined, not because the offers were not fully appreciated, but becaust assistance was not needed. Had there been a de mand for greater charity the demand would have been met. The results of the experiments of Dr. Domingos Freire wtth yellow fever were published in this country last July, and attracted wide attention. His experi ments proved that the earth about the grave of a yellow fever victim was capa ble of conveying the disease a year or more after the victim’s burial. He also showed the virulency of the yellow fever poison. He has carried his researches still further, and is now engaged in vaccinating persons to protect them against yellow fever. The New York Herald of Friday contains the following from Rio Janeiro.: “Dr. Domingos Freire, whose researches into yellow fever were noticed before, has begun the practice of vaccinating per sons with a culture of his yellow fever microbe attenuated by six transplanta tions in gelatine. Five out of six of the tirst batch suffered slight symptons of yellow fever, and the learned Doctor ex pressed his conviction that, they will not be attacked again, or, if they be, will escape with a very mild touch.” Dr. Freire proceeds on the theory that there is no liability to a second severe at tack of yellow fever. If there is, what is the use of vaccination? The belief pre vailed very generally prior to 1878 that a person naving had one attack ot yellow fever was exempt from other attacks. In that year plenty of people were victims of the fever who had previously suffered from it. Dr. Freire’s experiments are in teresting and valuable, and he may eventually discover a preventive or a cure for yellow fever. Governor Cleveland, ot New York, has expressed great interest in the New Or leans Cotton Exposition. Probably he would like for the Pelican State to re ciprocate by expressing great interest in his Presidential aspirations. During a circus performance in Ar kansas the other day, some ruffian shot through the canvas and killed a per former. Had it struck the advance agent on the cheek it would have done no harm. CURRENT COMMENT. New York’s Divided New York World (Dem.). Do not the Democrats see that their in sane and profitless quarrels are the hope and the salvation of this party of fraud, cant and hypocrisy? An Excellent Suggestion. Nash rille American (Dem.). The investigation of the Yantic-Proteus trouble is progressing at Washington. It would be a good idea to send some of the high officials to the scene of the disaster, thus preparing them for the cold wave which will settle over their party in ’B4. A (im Pertinent Question. Ph ill delph ia Press <_ Rep.). To Frank Hatton. Post Office Depart ment. Washington, D. C. Suppressed sir: You are quoted as saying that the Post Office Department was not big enough to hold both yourself and Judge Gresham. This being so, why don’t you crawl into a pigeon-hole or secrete your self in an umbrella cover? Anti-Butlerite* Aformed. Boston Advertiser (Rev.}. Some uneasy souls among the Republi cans have evidently been annoyed and made nervous, as well as puzzled, by the undoubted fact that there has been during the last few days an air of greater confi dence in Butler circles. If this increase of confidence be real, and not simply brag and bluster, there is all the more reason why the opponents of the Governor should redouble their efforts. Mr. Hayes as a Forglver. Cincinnati Enquirer (Dem.). Ex-President Hayes did a graceful and Christian act the other, day in going all the way from Fremont to Toledo to attend the funeral of General Steedman. “Old Chickamauga,” it will be remembered, was a great friend of Samuel J. Tilden, and in 1876 offered to head 100,000 men to seat him in the Presidential chair. When this is recollected, the forgiving nature of Mr. Hayes’ character is apparent. ITEMS OF INTEREST. Canada is pleased to find that Lord Lansdowne is ready to attend match games of football. The ceiling of the new Park Theatre, in Cleveland, is of fluted sheet iron, which is not only ornamental, but proof against tire. Prof. William North Rice says that the Connecticut river, between North ampton and Meriden, was once 150 feet deep and 15 miles broad. On the 13th of October Paris was af flicted with a fog so dense that fish-horns were blown as warnings by omnibus drivers, and the police carried torches. The population of Winnipeg has in creased 30 per cent, in eight months. Business and building are brisk, and 6,000 law suits have been decided in twelve months. At the last Saturday Night Club dinner in New York, the menu was adorned with cartoons of Chauncey M. Depew, laying down the law with the assistance of a champagne bottle, and of Jay Gould swallowing telegraph wires as if they were macaroni. The ice companies predict an open win ter because the south wind blew when the sun crossed the line—a sign south winds will prevail the next six months. The ice companies are excellent prophets—of short ice crops. It’s an ill wind that doesn’t blow them good. The Supreme Court at Knoxville has affirmed the decision of the lower court in the case of Mrs. Tennie Gurley vs. the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad, and awards the plaintiff $12,500 for the loss of her husband’s life in an ac cident at Cleveland about two years ago. It is now expected that Matthew Ar nold will deliver the opening addresses at the reassembling of the Nineteenth Cen tury Club at the house of Courtlandt Palmer. The lecture on “Numbers” has been sold at a high price to the Century, and that on Emerson to Macmillan’s Mag azine, but neither will be printed until alter Mr. Arnold’s return to England. In 1866, in the reorganization of the army, Col. Frederick W. Benteen re fused a Majorship in the Ninth Cavalry, because it was a colored regiment, de ciding to wait for a vacancy. The vacancy has come at last, and it is the Majorship of the Ninth Cavalry, the one he refused 17 years ago, and for declining which he has’ lost $8,500, the differences in the sal aries of a Captain an’d a Major. St. Louis is overrun with foreigners this winter. The last are Lord and Lady Wolesley. Lady W. is not English at all, but the daughter of an American bonanza man, Murphy by name. He was made a Marchess. His daughter, who has married Lord Wolesley, is 19, rather pretty, dresses in American and dances in English fashion. Her husband is large jointed, of an advanced age and very much given to shaking hands. Prof. David Swing passes some se vere criticisms upon Monsignor Capel, and attributes to him a zeal to save the souls of rich New Yorkers and summer villa-diners at Newport quite dispropor tionate to his zeal for saving the souls ot “the plain people,” as Lincoln would say. Professor Swing is unable to see any re semblance between the work of the Mon signor and that of Payson or St. Paul, and calls his mission in America “a blending of wine dinners and the conver sion of the world.” A new fuel has been invented in Mexico called “turbato,” consisting prin cipally of bog peat, of which there are large quantities in the country, and which is mixed with a proper proportion of bitumen or “chapopote.” The fuel is made of five different descriptions, for locomotives, stationary engines, smelting purposes, smiths’ fires and household purposes. It is said to burn freely and without much smoke, giving a higher dynamic equivalent of heat than the same amount of wood, and one very nearly as great as the best English coal. It can be manufactured and sold in Mexico at a price considerably below coal or wood. A pamphlet by a German officer, enti tled “France’s Preparedness tor War,” is much talked about just now at Berlin. The author, who was a witness of the late manoeuvres of the French army, states that, in the event of war, France would be able to place in the field 199,000 more infantry and 594 more guns than Germa ny, but that the officers and men are not so well trained as those of the German army, and that the constant changes in the direction of the War Office in Paris have produced some confusion in the ad ministration. The French Generals are also, in the writer’s opinion, decidedly in ferior to those of Germany as strategists and tacticians. When the demolition of the Tuileries Palace was undertaken a special commit tee was appointed to see that the work was duly carried out as specified in the contract, and to select such fragments of architecture as it should judge worthy of preservation. Now that the ruins of the palace have been entirely cleared away, it remains to arrange and classify the various fragments thus laid apart’ and distribute them among the various citv and State museums. These last relics of the old abode of French royalty—columns, capitals, cornices, has reliefs, pedestals, etc., to the amount of at least fifty wagon loads —are now lying in what was for merly the central court of the building. La Presse Medicale Helge says that a mysterious personage recently installed himself as a doctor in the most frequent ed part of the Faubourg Montmartre, Paris, to whose presence admission could only be gained after infinite questionings. His assumed name was foreign, and his servants were bound over to secrecy. This difficulty of access and air of myste ry acted as a tremendous advertisement, and his consultation room was soon so lie seiged that the attention of the police was attracted. A Commissaire demanded an inspection of his diploma. To his sur prise the doctor showed perfectly authen tic documents, “And now that you have assured yourself, M. Commissaire.” said the doctor, “do not betray me; for if my patients come to know that I am a mere doctor of the medical faculty of Paris, 1 shall see no more of them.” Sitting Bull was visited in his tent, recently, by a correspondent of the Cleve land Leader, who says: “Twenty poles spread in a circle of twenty feet diameter and tied at the top and covered with can vas made the home of this haughty Sioux. A tire burned in the centre and the smoke passed out at the top. and the same hole admitted light. Sitting Bull had two sis ters for wives and nine children. One wife had gone to the hunt, the other, poor ly clad in dirty calico, with two young boys playing near her. kneaded and baked bread, poured coffee, and served a chunk of meat. The bread was baked in a shal low kettle by putting coals on the cover. Coffee was served in a tin cup. No other dishes were used. Little boxes and par cels were put round against the tent. Buffalo skins served for beds. Sitting BUII is of medium height, stout built, and has a large oval face—nose prominent, cheek bones broad and high, eyes full of cunning, and mouth that indicates strong will power. His straight black hair is parted in the middle and dressed in two braids, which are brought forward and reach the waist.” If success be the true test ot merit, it is a settled fact that “Brown's Bronchial Troches" have no equal for the prompt relief of Cough, Colds, and Throat troubles.

I shall make no further effort to win your daughter.

Mrs. August Belmont, jr., was thrown out of her dog cart on Long Island recently and badly bruised. The remains of Harvey, discoverer of the circulation of the blood, have been placed in a SI,OOO coffin by the Royal Col lege of Physicians. Pope Leo’s health is far from im proving, and it is thought that the anxiety evinced during the past two years for his welfare is well-grounded. The Sandwich Island papers are dis cussing Charles Francis Adams, Jr., and his “College Fetich” address, which has been reprinted by them in full. The son of ex-Postmaster General James, of New York, married Miss Susan Ann Curtis Parramore, a great-grand daughter of Martha Washington. George Augustus Sala says that he wants to keep the English language as English as possible, and he, therefore, objects to the further introduction of for eign words. Miss Hattie Crocker, daughter of Mr. Charles Crocker, and who is accom panying Lord and Lady Water low on their journey round the world, is heiress of forty millions. King Humbert thinks that sixty years are too long a time for his father to re main without a pretentious tomb, and, therefore, one is soon to be built in the centre of the Pantheon. Mme. Jenny Lind still suffers much from a neuralgic affection of her throat and chest —the same which years ago used to cause her an agonizing headache after every appearance on the stage. A bronze statue of Tannahill was un veiled recently in the Abbey church-yard of Paisley, Scotland. Tannahill was a weaver there when he wrote the Scotch lyrics which brought him fame. There is a savins that Western peo ple do not like to have their Senators build handsome houses in Washington. Hence Senator Van Wyck, of Nebraska, is handicapped in his contest for re-elec tion, A New Haven hat seller has offered Lewis, the lover of the murdered Rose Ambler, S6OO to clerk for him for three months, hoping that the curiosity of the people to see the man would help the sale of his hats. Mr. Brannigan, of America, and Mr. Broadrib. of England, express the highest opinion of each other’s abilities. Branni gan is the way Mr. Lawrence Barrett used to figure and Broadrib is the name Mr. Henry Irving’s parents bequeathed him. Because General Sherman relinquish ed the army to Lieutenant General Sher idan it should not be assumed that the former relinquishes his rank in the army, or that the latter acquires the rank of General. General Sherman goes on the retired list only, retaining his full rank, with reduced ’ allowances. Lieutenant- General Sheridan remains in his present grade, since by act of Congress the two grades of General and Lieutenant Gen eral will expire on the death of thir pres ent incumbents. The rumor still circulates that Carl Schurz is to retire from the Evening Post, of which he has been the editor-in-chief and a part proprietor since its purchase from William C. Bryant & Co. One story is that he is to go actively into politics, wishing to be again a United States Sena tor; another is that he and his partners, Edwin L. Godkin and Horace White, differ materially about the policy of con ducting the paper, which would not be strange, as they are respectively German, Irish and American, and are each very tenacious of his opinions. CRAZED BY* THE TELEPHONE. A Prisoner Electrifies a Court Room by ’Phoning to the Devil. New York Morning Journal. A short, stout man, with an unneces sary development of the abdominal re gion, stood in front of Justice Duffy, in the Jefferson Market Police Court yester day morning. He was insufficiently clothed, and was apparently nearing the closing chapter of his life. His eyes were large, and shone with an eager,’ expect ant light. A small policeman leaned on the bar, watching him closely. The Jus tice read tbe complaint, which contained the usual amount of verbiage, and the following facts: “That James Cregan was in West street at 5 a. m., acting in such a manner as to frighten pedestrians, and when ordered to move on by the officer, refused to do so.” "Why didn’t you obey the officer?” asked the Justice. “Hark!” said the prisoner, placing his hand behind his ear and dropping his chin on his breast. “The devil has been ring ing me up,” and then, in a coddling, coax ing tone he called: “Hello! Hello-o!! Hello-o-o!!!” The clerks dropped their pens, the pris oners at the rail stepped forward, Court Officer Morse swallowed a half-ehewed toothpick, while His Honor, realizing that the man before him was unaccountable for his actions, said in a voice whose usual gruffness was subdued by pity: “Have you a telephonic communication with his Satanic Majesty ?” The prisoner raised hi’s hand as if to en join silence, and a moment later muttered an impatient ejaculation. “Curses on it,” he said, “I can’t under stand what it is he says; there is a con fused murmur ot sounds in my ears.” After a second of apparently deep thought he continued in a worried tone: “I’m not anxious to hear what he says, but there is a power compels me to, and I am obliged to listen whether I will or not.” The justice scratched on the back of the complaint “C. C. C. C. C.,” meaning “committed to the care of the Commis sioners of Charities and Corrections,” and handed it to the officer, who laid his hand on the prisoner’s shoulder. -K’ome this way,” he said. The man started as if from a trance and then asked: “There will be no connection with the ' lower regions where you take me?” “Oh, no,” said the officer. The poor | fellow left the stand, and as he reached I the door leading into the prison he stopped and called: “Hello! Hello! Hello-o-o!” Loss and Gain. CHAPTER I.

A NOTED BUT UNTITLED WOMAN. [From the Boston Globe.] Messrs. Editors . The above is a good likeness of Mrs. Lydia E. Pink ham, of Lynn, Mass., who above all other human beingt 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 assistants, to help her answer the large correspondence wnich daily pours in upon her, each bearing its special burden of suffering, or joy at release from it. Hex Vegetable Compound is a medicine for good and nol 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 weakness, 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 Lackache, 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 C ses, 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. I’., with stamp for reply, at her home in Lynn, Muss. For Kidney Complaint of either sex this compound is unsurpassed as abundant testimonials show. “ 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 w orks wonders in its special line and bids fail 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.
