my dear, is a Strung cup of ginger-tea and
plenty of esercise. I have been attacked in
the same way myself. I was much younger
than you, though,” she continued, observing
the look of inquiry on the girl's face, "a good
deal younger. The poets say first love is
the most lasting, and I believe them ; for I
have a tender spot in my heart for my first

" Experience, my dear. You will learn,
one of these days that your dainty little idol,
with his kids and polished book, is not so

"he isn’t handsome, and he isn't young,

THE HOUSE.
Tbe long protracted st raggle in the
house over Potter’s reeolation for a
lect committee of eleven to investigate
the alleged presidential frauds in Flor
ida and Louisiana, resulted to-day in a
victory for the democrats, and in the
adoption of the resolution. The dem
ocratic members who had been absent
or paired on Monday last, when the
resolution was offered, have been, sinc9
then, recalled to the city, or had given
notice of a termination of their pairs,
and to-day there were present in the
house free from entangling
allLnce, 148 democrats including the
speaker. After various preliminary
movements, comprising a call of the
house, the closing of* the doors, the is
suing of warrants for the absentees,
none of whom were in tbe city, eta, a
final vote wa3 taken on the adoption of
the preamble a^d resolution. Not a

shows clearly that he deeply loved his
wife, and that it was only his gallantry,
his vanity, his amour propre that were

advantage regardless of honor, decency
and loyalty to her sex, or consideration
for the feelings of a wife and prospect

For thiskind of wickedness In women

not recognize it, and the anfortanate

uproar and excitement throughout the
body, but no demonstrations attended

Stephens did not vote, as he was paired.
An incident occurred over the question
of pairs which at one time threatened
to be serious. Mr. Goode, of Virginia,
had been paired with Mr. Loriug, of
Massachusetts, who was in the city but
sick, and when Goode stated the fact
that he had given notice to Mr. Loring
of the termination of tbe pair, and that

Peihaps Katherine Underwood was more

She wa» a quiet woman, little given to con-

was only upon rare occasions that her scren
ity was disturbed. But the roust have expe
rienced some sort of relief in the cool shade
of the ches.nuts, for she lifted her hands in
a quick upward gesture, and exclaimed :
** Well, this is comforting!”
** It is better than staying in the house and
discussing such a detestable subject as men,”
responded Becky Griggs.
"A little fresh air,” said the schoolmis
tress, " is a wonderful thing. It blows the
mental cobwel* utterly away, and we per
ceive that not a few of our giants are dwarfs."
44 What good does that do?" asked the
younger woman petulantly. ” We go back,
gather up the cobweb*, and, lo and behold !
there we have our giants again.”
44 Well, it is a relict, at any rate," replied
the other, dryly.
*• No," said Becky, M it wouldn’t be any
relief to me. All my giants are real giants,
th-nk goodness, and if they weren’t, I
shouldn’t like to see them parading as
dwarfs."

Miss Kate," said the girl. 44 but I’m glad 1
didn’t. I know how indifferently you would
have lifted your eyes, and then you would
have asked me about my music lesson.”
The tchoolmistress la.ighed merrily.
“Well, thy dear, I know how these things
are. You arc young. If age was not at
tended by experience, we should have no
wisdom.”
*« You are not old enough to be my grand
mother, Miss Kate,” remarked the girl.

said the schoolmistress. 44 Nine years may
represent a great deal or very little, accord

As she spoke, the shadow of a man fell
across the pathway, and the next moment a
strong, hearty voice had broken in upon the
rippling treble of the 1 ’ conversation.
“Good evenin’, ladies. We’re havin’

THE GROWLERS IK COUNCIL.
The republican congressional com
mittee hss issued an address to the
voters of the United btatee, ss follows:
Tbe democratic house of representa
tives has to-day, by a party vote,
adopted a resolution which, under pre
tence ' of an investigation, is tt
lay the foundation of a revolntion and
tbe expulsion of the president from Mb
office. * This is the cnlmination of a
plot which hss been on foot from the
(lay that Hi yea and Wheeler were
constitutionally declared elected. Iv
made ita first public appearance in the
resolution of the laat democratic house,
adopted at tbe close of the session, de
during that Tilden and Hendricks were
elected. Tilden and Hendricks subse
quently made a similar declaration. A
few timid members have long held
back, and some of them, after being
brought to the final vote, still pretend
that they will bolt as soon as this par
tial and one sided investigation shall be
ended. In other words, they intend,
after hearing the snbothed evidence, to
bring in a verdict that Hayee is a usurp
er, and that he shall not remain in of
fice. Those men have no control in
the democratic party. They dared not
even follow Alexander H. Stephens in
a revolt against caucus dic.ation, to
the extent of showing some semblance
of fair play. They will be impotent in
tbe future as they have been in the
nst. Moreover, it is difficult to believe
a their sincerity, in view of the public
arrival of the party, that its purpose is,
if possible, to displace the president.
It is a matter of history. The resolu
tion jnst adopted was framed to express
this object. The speaker of the house
was consulted in advance as
whether he would rale
political question. In this they
were defeated by the speaker, who
woald not rale a question of privilege.
It clearly assailed the title of the presi
dent. He read it carefully, prepared
an opinion deciding it to be a question
of the Mghest privilege, be
cause it involved a question
of the validity of Hayej’a
title. Here are his words: “A higher
privilege than the one here involved,
and broadly and directly presented, as
the rightful occupancy of the chief ex-

folio wing: ’’Eection of president.’
The chair therefore rales that the pro
amble and resolution embrace the quee-
tions of the highest character, and re
cognises the right of the gentleman
from New York to offer the same.”
Upon this, the republicans com
merced asrrnygie against a revolution
ary scheme, which, after five day’s du
ration, terminated in the success of the
conspirators. The republicans offered
to favor the fullest investigation into
all the alleged frauds by which every
party ia charged to have been commit
ted, but the democrats pursued its
course shamelessly and re-
lendessly, and stifled- all
inquiries into the attempts
at bribery in Oregon! Sonth Carolina
and Louisiana, and the murder and
violence in several of the state*.
Neither amend ment or debate was al'
lowed. The inexorable perioos ques
tion waa applied and enforced. Thia
scheme, if persisted in, and it is now
ally inaugurated, can only have the
effect of farther paralysing the business
of all kinds, preventing the restoration
of confidence, which seems promising,
casting a gloom over every household
and bringing the nation into -re
proach before the civilized world.
The peace of the com t -v is the first con
sideration of patriots. This new effort
oi the democrats to inaugurate anarchy
and to Mexicanizs the government by
throwing doubts noon the legitimacy of
the president, is in keeping with the
record of that party on one wing, which

the other wing gave them aid and com

SEA FOAM is an entirely new inven
tion, without any of the bad qualities of feast
or baking powders, soda, or saleratas.
SEA FOAM contains no ingredient or
element which can produce an injurious effect,
but on tbe contrary has In itself* tendency to
sustain and nourish the human system. It is
ABSOLUTELY PURE
Not Infrequently the best of flour gets all tho
blame, when in reality the dark color and poor
taste are both caused by the nse of inferior
raising powder. Many baking powders now
highly recommended by grocers, and hcnco
largely sold, are made of old bones ground up,
and by a chemical process mixed with oilier
ingredients. Before lending their influence to
increase the sale of any baking powder, grocers
would do well to ascertain the reputation and
standing of Us manufacturers. They would
thus avoid becoming instrumental in perpe
trating a fraud on their customers, aud would
in the long run make more money. Of course
no honest man would knowingly lend himself
to such a fraud upon his customers, and it is
very poor policy for any grocer to attempt to
palm off Inferior goods when the best aro
asked for. Ho may by so doing make a littlo
money at the time, but he surely will at some
time, if the fraud is discovered, lose one of his
best customers, and with him a score of others
who might otherwise have dealt with him.
A merchant's wises* policy Is to secure the best
customers, and they are just the ones who
want the best goods. SEA FOAM is

It is prepared from the purest and best materi
als only, and is never under any circum
stances adulterated. There is no longer any
excuse for sour, heavy, or sodden bread, bis
cuit, or pastry. Every housewife in the land
should make herself acquainted with the facta
we have stated, which are indisputable, and
she will soon ascertain that most of the yeast
preparations now being sold are anything
else but what they profess to be, and that
this is the main reason why so large a propor
tion of the bread consumed by the masses of
the community is unhealthful. Invalids aro
especially interested in this question of yeast,
aud ought to keep constantly in mind the im
portant fact that their dietary should at all
times be the best, and that under the most
favorable circumstances they can not hope to
regain health and strength unless their fowl is
tho most healthful and nutritious that can be
obtained. Good food makes good blood, and
the nerve force is strengthened or impaired in
proportion as tho food we eat is nutritious or
otherwise.
SEA EO AM is worthy of a fair trial, and '
that Is all we ask for iL
No one having once used It win overuse any
other preparation In the baking powder line,
but will at once and forever banish from tho
bouse the various crude mixtures and bogus
preparations in tbe form of yeast that have so
long and so persistently fended to destroy
health by imperfectly performing the require
ments they professed to fulfill.
SEA FOAM retains in all tljeir excel
lence die nutritious properties and natural
taste of the various cereal prejarations of food,
while in bread raised by the ordinary means
there is very frequently great loss of their
toothsome and palatable qualities.
Of all baling or yeast powders, Sea Foam
is beyond dispute the
BIST IN THE WORLD
Give it a trial, and you will concede that'
have offered you the means to mako poor
flour much better titan when used under'
ordinary conditions, while good flour will bo,
Immeasurably increased in sweetness, rich
ness, and all those qualities which combine to
render good bread essentially the stair of life.
SEA FOAM Is now used by the leading
hotels and restaurants in New York city and
throughout the country. One eating-house in
New York has become famous for ita SEA
FOAM biscuit, and during the dinner hours
there are always dozens of people waiting
their turn to be seated.
Ask your grocer to get It for you, if ho has
not already placed it in hit stock, and if an
obliging man he will do so; or send for
