Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in this
country. “Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest tests, but her vital
organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed incessantly, and could
not sleep She finally discovered away
to recovery, by purchasing of us a bot
tle of Dr. King’s New Discovery for
Consumption, and was so much re
lieved on taking first dose, that she
slept all night; and with two bottles,
has been absolutely cured. Her name
is Mrs Luther Litz.” Thus writes W.

An Anecdote of Lincoln.
At one period during the civil war
. there were no less than seventy-four
major generals and 276 brigadiers on
the rolls, which was far more than
there was any use far, says the Kansas
City Journal. President Lincoln rec
ognized this mistake before anybody
else, but be consoled himself by joking
about it.
1 It is recalled that on one occasion,
’ when one of these superfluous generals
was capturld by the enemy, with a
number -of men and horses, somebody
undertook to condole with the presi
dent on the subject, remarking that
the loss of the captured general’s ser
vice was a great misfortune to the
government.
“Pooh!” replied Lincoln, “it’s the
horses I’m thinking about. I can make
another brigadier general in two min*
utea, but horses are scarce and coat
S2OO apiece.”

Election* Is
Elections in Guatemala are decided, it
appears, by majorities so torero ~
der unnecessary any subsequent electoral
contest. In order to dispose of contests
more expeditiously there are now in Wash
ington three committees oh elections in
the house of representatives. But one com
mittee probably would suffice in Guate
mala, where, at the last election for presi
dent of the republic, the vote east was in
the proportion of 700 for one candidate to
1 for the other. The term of the president
of Guatemala is nominally six years, and
he is not eligible for a second term, but
when Guatemala gets a good president it
is the custom to prolong his term, and a
term thus prolonged is indefinite and ends
usually when the president dies
Geaeral Denver.
“Denver is so young,” says a corre
spondent of the Boston Transcript, “that
General Denver, for whom it is named, is
still living and visited the city a few years
ago. This is a rare honor. Washington
never saw the which he knew
would bear his name. Lieutenant Du
luth, the intrepid French officer of the
lake region, had been in his grave 200
years before the city that perpetuates his
fame was founded. It has been General
Denver’s good fortune to live to see his
namesake possess a population of 170,000
and rank high amvng the thriving towns
of the west.”
Mr. H. A. Pass, Bowman, Ga., writes
“One of my children was very delicate and
we despaired of raising it. For months
my wife and I could hardly get a night’s
rest until we began the use of Pitts’ Car
minative. We found great relief from the
first bottle.” Pitts’ Carminative acts
promptly and cures permanently. It is
pleasant to the taste, and children take it
without coaxing. It is free from injurious
drugs and chemicals.
