last Wednesday to count the electoral
votes. Mr. Edmunds, presiding officer

219 votea, and wero elected, while Blaine
and Logan had received 182 votes, said
that hu made the announcement in pur
suance of custom, and not as possessing

authority which the Republicans claimed
ho strongly in 1 8"6, excited them much,

Washed-Out Hair.
There is a sort of pallid, chalky com
plexion which the novelists call a
“washed-out complexion.” It is ghastly
enough, and no mistake. Washed-out,
faded, discolored, or pan-o'brc d hair is
almost as repulsive and melancholy.

LOBBY LADIES.
A Washington correspondent- to the
Cleveland Leader says: 'lhe ladiet of
the lobby are the greatest bores to the
average Congressman. By this Ido not
mean the lady lobbyists. There are few
purely business lobbyists among the la
dies of tho capitol, and the character
abounds more in fiction than in reality.
But there are scores of women with
claims, women office-seeker- and advent
uresses of different kinds, who come to
the capitol, and the rooms reserved lor
their reception arc always full while Con
gress is in session. The ladies’ reception
room of tho Houro is opposite the north
door. When I entered it to day I found
it filled with about forty ladies, some
sitting and waiting, and others engaged
in talking to Congressmen. I noticed
many fresh young giris. On speaking to
the polite Confederate Colonel who has
charge of the rbcm, he told mo (hat
these, in nine cases out of ten, were young
women who v unted places io the di -
parluicnts and bad come to solicit their
Congrersmcu’s it.fluence. Said he: “You
have no idea of how many office-seekers
cotuo here. There arc women from nil
over the country. Many of them are
dtserving, and notwithstanding what has
been s»id about it, I have yet to find the
fiiist questionable character in this ro in.
If they are bail they do not show it. «Wo
have from 100 to 200 ladies in livre every
day to et c Congressmen. They must all
apply to me, and I send in their cards by
a page. Sometimes the members re
ceive them, and sometimes cot.
“Last year there was a poor old wo
man who used to come here and sent) in
her card about once a week, i’hc mem
bers generally ontne once to see her, and
she would tell her story. Tho few she
called nut always gave to her, and I have
seen two fi.o and seven sio bills go out
of their pockets into liois Congressmen
are generally liberal and kind hearted,
and they give freely.”
As I leave this room I stop a moment
and speak to a door keeper I know. He
tells nm that ladies sometimes try to go
into the House while it is in session, and
Hint during tho last term one came to his
door with blood in ter eye and a cowhide
whip under asoal skin cloak. She started
to go inside. She said u Congressman
had illused her, and «he was bound to g<
in and horse whip him in the pro-cnee of

“It'llN THE RASCALS OUT.”
Ike Hill is still as s mo and frisky as
the bass that disport themselves in the
waters of the Licking Reservoir around
his naiive heath.
‘‘You seem to be the same old Ike,”
an Enquirer reporter remarked yesterday
at the Grund Hotel, as the Colonel ex
tended his hand and gave an ancient
Newark rqtecze.
“There's not much change in m<‘. I’m
mighty glad I’m alive, though, after that
effort you fellows n ads io kill me off and
reported that 1 was dead. That «a< a
Item trick to play on a nice man like
mo. ”
“Colonel, you have ideas on civil
service reform, have you not? ’
"Weil, it beats h —llf”
“Explain yourself.”
“It is just this: You can't go up town
in Washington of an evening and visit
tho resorts frequented by sralesincn but
what you find a lot - f clerks who l ave
been Mickiw-.- the pu lie teat fi>r year-,
cringing nd fuwning around, and ralkiog
about retaining their places. Why, it
makes me rick. The other day 1 was
talking to one of these fellows and he
made the remark that there were clerks
in the departments who could not be
spared. No one would know how to do
the work. They were indispensable. 1
said to him: ‘Young man. don't talk to
me that way, I know better.'
“ ‘l'm au American, an 1 I tel! you if
tire earth was to open and just lot, the
entire District of Columbia slide right
through below, taking the capitol, the
clerks and everything else it would male
nrr difference- Lt a few months more the
government w -.il-i be as complete as if
nothing had happened.’ ”
‘ Yon think the Republicans should
So."
"Most certainly. Turn every mo.het’s
son of them out fh-at’s what the Dim
ocratic victory meant. ‘Turn tho rascal
out' was the shibboleth of the campaign.
Do yon imagine frr nn instant tint these
people who gained the Democrat ic
victory did tot want the fruits of that
victory? No. Xnotlmr of tho w r cries
was; ‘Give us a t eep at the books.’
What chance d i wa have of getting a
peep at the books if tho same old pap
gobblern thumb their pages? Are they
going to expose their own roitenncs-?
Certainty n >t. Y> t ask if it i- right lhei
should p>? Os (J)tirso it is ‘To the vicitr

perhaps, but it is correct. I cam iI < m
lhe people, I mingle with th-iui, and I
tell you, sir, it i- the sentiment of nine
tcnn-twentielhs of the tncs-c . Wl y.
look in our counti'-s in the election of
county officers. It is the custom to live
it good officer two terms and no more.
For some of th- county officers there is a
constitutional bar prohibiting mt,re than
two terms. This should apply to thn
clerkships nt Wa-' ingtnn as wll. Why
should a man l-r.v- bis there longer
than when selected by the people’s vote
direct? The people wl.o voted fur C.'cve
land didn't voto fur him to get a
I’icsidi-nt and n cabinet. They wanted a
change in the administration, and they
wanted a thorough one. Tl ey should
have it, too.”
"What do you think of Pendleton?”
"A few yosrs ago Pendleton was the
popular Demn'rat ol Ohio. That was
before he tried to build up nn office
holding class. Many m-n had been raise 1
like I was to idolize him For thirty
years I was his earnest champion. Every

Now he has not a corporal's guard

bee in Iris bonnet and thought be could

"What abm ; Cleveland’s letter?”
‘lt has a saving clause. It says that
people taking a partisan advantage of
their position under the government
must not expo -t to stay 1- seems to me

A. MAN WHO SUFFERED MENTAL AND
PHYSICAL AGONY EIGHT YEARS PRO
CLAIMS HIS HAPPINESS.
Mental agony h dreadful, but when that
and physical ailment combine, it is simply
terrible. Such was the condition of Geo.
W. Frampton, of Huntingdon, W. \ a.,
for tight years. He was a sufferer of ne
croses—that is, the leg bone at the ankle
was inflamed and mortified, which caused
running sores. llc says: “ Pieces of bore
the size of a silver three cent piece ca nc
out of the sores on my leg. Thedischarge
from t'.ie sores was almost continual, and
I was unable to walk. For eight years I
have been doctoring. 1 had been under
the treatment of a physician at Newport,
Ky., f >r a y ear; another at Burlington, 0.,
attended me for three years.and a doctor
here at Huntingdon worked with me for
a long time. None of them did me any
good, and they all finally said my case
was hopeless. A few months ago I com
menced trying Perun a, and now I am
well. 1 can walk as good as anybody,
and have perfect use of my limbs.”
Mr. z\lf. Lusk, Wooster, Ohio, writes:
■ Dr. II artman, Columbu®, O. I have
been a great sufferer from that dreaded
disease, chronic calanh of the stomach.
I have thoroughly tried your Ma ma UN,
and it has done me more good ten fold
than all the doctors' prescriptions, and I
have used legions of them.
Mr. Edgar Harte, Smeltzer P. 0., Elk
county, Pa., writes: “ I have bought sev
ers! bottles of your Perlna, and find it
to be of great benefit. 1 also gave it to
some of my friends; they experienced
the same result.”
Mr. L. R. Wollen, 45 and 47 Ross
st reet. Pittsburgh, Pa , writes: “ 1 am tak
ing Pbruna with good results, and can
highly recommend it to ail. I have ap
ple lat lhe different drug stores for one
of your books. They claim they have
none on hand at present. Please do me
the favor to send me one. ”
W. W. Russell, druggist, Canonsburg,
Pa., writes: I hand’e your medicine,
Perun a. I have*oid immense quantities
of it, and consider it a staple article. I
have a great many customers who think
there is no in dicing like it for a tonic or
for b idding vp the system. I recom
mend it as a safe and reliable remedy.”
Calista Fishel, Malvern, Ohio, writes :
‘ I take pleasure in recommending the use
of Peri n a and Manalin to any one
afflicted with any form of lung or bron
chial trouble. I have been for some time
afflicted with a very troublesome cough,
but a few bottles of Peruna entirely
cured me.”
