CWHAT TIEDICINES AV E FIOST
CALLED FOR»
wsked the reporter of an old drugaist,
“Dr. Pierce's preparation 3" he replied.
“They are sold under a positive guare
antee that they will, in every case, give
satisfaction, or the money I 8 promptly re
funded. His ‘Favorite Prescription,’ for al
those chronic weaknesses, nervous and other
derangements peculiar to women, is used with
unfailing success. It cures weak back, bear
ing-down sensations, irregulavities anqd weaks
nesses common to the sex, and being the
most perfect of tonic medicines builds up
and strengthens the entire system. Thy de.
mand for it is constant, and | am conversant
with scores of cases cured by it.”
Returning after a few moments’ abgence,
the venerable wielder of the pestle remarked,
“the number of Sarsaparillas and other, goe
called, * blood medicines’ is legion; but Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical D' ~overy outselis
them all and it is the only 1 d-purifier out
of the many which I am oblized to keep upon
my shelves, that is grarazteed to benefit or
cure in all cases for which it is recommenged,
or money paid for it is refundod.” .
*ln the line of Pills,” remarked the old on
tleman, **the little Sugar-coated * P::lgtts'
put up by Dr. Pierce lead all others, both in
amount of sales and the general satisfaction
they give my customers.”

PROFE3SOR WiGGINs.
He Explains Wiy the Eapth js Raceding
From the Sun.
_ Professor Wiggins says he, cone
§n!ers his discm'ery that the earth
14 receding from the sun the greats
et astronomical event of the cen~
}llry. This recission, he declres,
1s proved by what is known as the
procession of the eguinoxes, which
| canses the tropics! year to be shorts
er than the sidereal, the latter hes
l'u; the real meusure of the earth’s
ncreasing orhit. Bis secord nmof
he gkl the moon’s seenlar :;«-ce]-
eration, for it is agreed on by all
astronomers, so he asserts, that the
moon travels faster in her orbit
now than two centuries before the
hristisn era. - When the earth
approaches the sun, as she does
when moving to her perinelion,
the moon reeedes and travels in a
!:ll‘:er orbit, aad whon approach
-11 r aphelion the satellite approachs
¢s our planer, and thus not «nly
wovesin a smwaller orbit, but mm.ev_g
more gpeadily. The eirth, there
fore, in retreating from the sun
- causes the mooa to move ira con
stantly Jdecreasing orbit and,
theretore, with inereascd repidity.
As the earty, therefore, is receding
frou the sun, it is cecting less m,}i
lesssubject to sciar attractions,
and must, thereiore, Le constantly
| expanding, so that cur oceans are
gracually becomivs more shallow,
! because they are covering a cons
saantly increasing surface, and the
;‘fixm’r will comme when it wil be nees
| essary to carve up the coutinent by
| canals, as we see on Murs, and the
{same is no doubt true of the
1 planets Saturn aad Jupiter. Trees

l LIFE GROWING LONGER.
| ——
| The A verage Age of Man is Steadly In
creasing,
’ “Life grows longer as the world
grows stronger,” pavaphrased a
' physician yesterday. “In the de~
generate days of the Cwmsars, when
'the Ror.an Empire was getting
} ready to totter and fall, the duras
tisnof the average Roman's lite
was 18 yeass. Now, despite the
unsavory reputation of the Ho'y
City as a fever-breeding centre,
averaze age at death is 40 years.
The United States forzes ahead of
every other nation on earth in re
spect to the longevity of tieir cit~
izens, 55 years beiig the average
here.
- "Of all the European nations
Russia is said to be the most fre
que:tly visited by the grim reap—
er. Insomeofits remote orners
fortysuine deaths in every thou
saud inhabitants is the annual ra ‘e.
Aud thereby hanus a tale. Rus
sian weather is not of necessity |
more deztruetive than what Genes |
ral Greely serves up to Awericans,
nor our sanitary regulations so far
in advance ot the Czu's; but
when you note that there is in the
empire but one regular physician
to every 5,400 inhubitants, wlile
i this country one out ot every}
609 aflixes a bona fide M. D. to his
name, you can form some idea of
the cause of America’s greater
health!uiness,
| LET THEM MIGRATE TO RUSSIA.
“These tacts furnish food for re
flection to the green graduate and
impecunious practitioner. The
medical profession is overscrowded
in the new world, and the throngs
of physicians are so minssed togeths
er that it is impossible for an un
derling ever to sgramble up to a
~seat in the room that is said al
waysto remain at he top. But
‘there is a greit need of practition
crs in far-away Russia, and ii sev

this country should go thither,

BRITAIN'S INCREASING YEARS.
“The average Englishman is
not so long-lived as his American
brother, but with that sin.le ex-.
ception ke approaches more nearly
to the Psalmist’s three-score-ands |
ten than any other inhabitant of
the earth. Elizabetl’s suljects had
a score of years liid to the credic |
of exch, while Victoria's miiiions |

GRIM DEATH IS GETTING LEFT.
“It is estimated that the lite o!

“There is no doubt that the
graduates of our nineteeuth cens
tury medieal colleges, with theif
notable discoveries, are materially’

mented another physician. “Cooks

A Year »"ithout a Summer
Tha Constituhon, of last Satur
dny, says:
In the early paiv of the pre:ent
century we had in tnis country a
year without a summer
Those were dole ul das. No
picnies, no strawberry festiv, Is, no
summer yirls,
There were vo flies on that spm
mer.
In that gloomy year there was
frost every month, or ice and snow,
The crops iailed to mature, and the
]penplc had to worry alonz on halt
ratious.
Toe nipping and eager air ot
yesterday veealls this notable year.
With ice and snow in Michigan
and overcoats in Florida one feels
that the times are out of joint.
Arve we to have a repetition o: the
vear without a summer?
It will be recollected that the
fiendish Wirgins hasjust bulletined
us that the earth is receding from
the sun, and must necessarily grow
colder. Every fellow who hunted
around yesterday moraing for the

is rc?&'n; from the sun is putt,ing‘
it too xm_.mc]y. Leaping would
come nearer the mark, and there
are some people wiling to sweari
that yesterday the earth took a
header that carried it in one
straight shoot about ten million
mailes further away trom the sun.
Mr. J. R. GrinstraD, Senora,
Ky., says: y chilllren have l

Swift’s Specific. Hesays he derived ;

HARD HIT ON THE FIELD. -
. We had been held in reserve for
five long hours while cannon thua.
dered and muskets cracked spite~
fully along the front, a mile away.
A procession of dead and wounded
had filed past until we were sick
with horror. Shot and shell and
bullet had fallen upon us behind
the woods until the dry, dead grass ,
bore many a stain of blood.
“Attention ! Forward—gnide l
right--march !” : i
. Qur brigade was going in at
iast, and there was a look of relicf
.on the face of every officer and man
as we got the word. :
“Guide right—lront—fcrward
—march !”
As we s vung clear of the woods
a gust of wind raised the smoke for
a minuteand I saw the plain—lnour
fiont blue with dead and wounded.
Away beyond them was a line of
‘eurthworks, and I had one swift
[glimpse of a thiv blue line kneeling
behina the cover.
i ““Bteady! Right dress! Double
| quick—rmarch!”
The air is alive with the ping of
bullets and the whizz and shriek of
| shot and shell. We bend our heads
as if breastin - a fierde ;Yulo laden
l with: icy pel'ets. There is'a w. il ery
—a shiek a groan as men u.®
{ s ruck and .21l to the earth, but no
l one Yeeds them-- N 0 one hesitated It
is a hutricane of dexth, but we feel
’ a wild exultation in Lreasting it.
Men shout, curse, sing, s sing their
hats and cheer. : ‘
We were driving through the
smoke clond when there is a flagh
of firein front. I seens torisein-o
i the air an? float hither and thither,
[g' na the sensation is 8¢ dreary and
! full of rest that I wish itcould last
forover. It is suddenly broken by
“the sovtud of my voice. Is it
my voic 7lt sounds strange and
‘afi: off to me. Why should I cheer
and curss hy turns ? What has
hapnensd?
Ah! now I come hack to earth
agaiu ! Above and arcund me is
the smoke the earth trembled
under the artillery—men are lying
about and beside me. Where is
the brigade? Why did I drop
out? I am lying on my back,
and I strogele te sit up and look
around. I rise to my kuees wave
this way and that- topple over
and struggle up again. There is
red fresh blood on the grass- -on
my hands—on my face. I take
it on my lips as my parched tongue
thrust itself out in search of mois
ture.
\t ho is gromine ?Whois shriek
ing? Who is cheering ?And why
should I laugh aud exult ? Have
we held the line against a grand
charge? Did we scatter and dec
imate the legions hurled against
us? ilive we won a great victory
0 be flashed over the country and
caus the bells to ring with ¢lads
ness? Let me think. Give me
time to remember how it all hap
pened. Strange that my thought
should he so confused and the de

I likethe Anglo-Saxton speech
With its direct revealings;
It takes a bold and seems to reach
Far down in your feelings;
That some folk deem it rude, I
know,
And therefere they abuse it;
But I have never found it so,
Before all else I choose it.
I den’t object that men sheuld air
The Gullic they have paid for,
With ‘‘au revoir,” ‘‘adieu ma

For that’s what Frenth was
m.de for.
But when a 2reny takes your hand
At parting to address you,
He drops all foreign lingo ard
He says: “Good-by, God bless
you!”
I'bis seems to me a sacred phrase
With reverance impassioned;
A thing come down from rightheous
dnys,
Quaintly, but nobly fashioned.
It weli becomes an honest face,
A voice that s round and cheer~
ful;
It stays the sturdy in his place
And soothes the weak and fears
ful.
Into the porches of the ears
It steals with subtle unction,
Aundin yom heart of hearts ap
pears |
To work its gracious tunction;
And all day long with pleasing
fi()llg
It lingers to caress you,
I'm sure no humaun heart goes
wrong
That's told “Good-by, God bless

he said to a reporter:
“I wou'd rather runa two horse

yearsazo I had been merchandis

into my store through the transome
and literally ruined me. I came

THE KISSING HABIT.
The fact that the kissing Labit
furnishes an easy vehicle for the
dissemination of disease germs is of
itself o sufficient reason for its
abandonment. Many instance have
heen vited to demonstrate its dan
gerous character in this regard, ard
medica! men have repeatedly sound
ed the warning azainst its continu
ance. A little thought will empha
size the point in the readers mind.
I he woman who goes about kissing
all her women friends and acquaint
ances and their children, old or
young,sick or well regardless of the
condition of their blood or lungs
and oblivious of the possibility that
they have recently been kissed by
a dozen other persons respecting
whose hygienic conditions'she has
16 knéwledge can hardly plead that
the practice is innocent of danger.
‘Fatal diseases may be and somes
times are communicated by the im
pact of the lips and the mingling
of their moisture and of the breath
and disorders that are less immedis
ate or direful in their effects,but no
less certainly to e dreaded, are
more casily and often propagated
by the habit. The person whom |
you kiss may be entirely
free from any dizease or unhealth
ful condition yet her lips may car
ry a.poison recently taken from
those of another person. You
may be yourself the innocent means
of transmitting the disease germs
from one to another. Poisonous
cosmeties and facepowders mutilply
and complicate the malignant con
sequencss of whatis held to be an
innocent expression of affectionate

discredit the fact uron which they
a‘e based. But the unchallenged
admission that some danger does
exist has been sufficient to pracii
cally substant’ate the case against
the kissing habit, and the warrant
for its banishment is being signed
and executed by an enlightened
womanhood. ' |
The kissing habit has been cars
ried to its greatest extreme among
Englis‘mpeuking people, and peo
ple ot other blood are often amazed
und amused by the universality and
‘heapness ot the kiss among the
Enzlish nationis, It is not necessa
rilly an argument in its tavor how
ever,that it is thus found to be ap |
weeompainiment of the highest
civilization for it may be promptly
retorted that vice and crime also
increase with civilization, and that
even civilized and refined people
often keep slive barbarious praes
tices inherited trom savage ances
iry. The kiss in its proper function
tas a fine significance and may b
made the vehicle ot the purest em»
otions the honest expression of
legitimate feeling a greeting full o
zenuine volui tary sympathy and
iove. The kissing habit is an
abuse and a nuisance. It has
brought the kizslute disurace and
made it vulgar cheap and hypoeri
ticul, Be it the province of the
gereration of refinement and edu
cation ‘o rescue it from its degra
