ORIGIN OF FABRICS.
Many of Them Traceable to the Middle

Like civilization indnetriee came
from the Last, ami the orgin of differ

one of the great eeata of trado and
manufacture in the Middle Agee. The
great intellectual awakening of the
Last, under the elimulua of Arabic
culture and luxuriance, was accomp¬
lished by a eorreepondeut awakening
in all brunches of industry and trade.
Jlagdiid, during the beneficent reign
of llarun ul -La-hid. became the seat
of crary luxury capital and both tlie intellectual of I :am and all< of i the ^
world. Thence the industrial and fine

Moor, and Osmanli to the extremities

lie traced n large number of the fab

been seen, soon became the mart of

the commerce of other cities and
countries, and served ifn a perpetual
bazar or fair fur the ‘interchanging of
trado between the Lust and West.

The Blue and the Gray.
Both men and women tiro apt to feel a little
blue, when the gray hairs begin to show. It’s
a very natural feeling. In the normal condition
of things gray hairs belong to advanced age.
They have no business whitening the head of
man or woman, who has not begun to go
down the slope of life. As a matter of fact,
tho hair turns gray regardless of age, or of
life's seasons ; sometimes it is whitened by
sickness, but more often from lack of care.
When the hair fades or turns gray there’s no
need to resort to hair dyes. The normal color
of tho hair is restored and retained by the use of
Ayer’s Hair Vigor.

FLORIDA'S FROFOSLD CANAL,
Articles of Incorporation Have Been Filed
in New York City.
A New York dispatch states that ar¬
ticles have been filed with County
Clerk I’urroy for the incorporation of
the Florida Trans-Peninsular Ship Ca-
nft , Comiiany. ' Tlie chief incorpura-
tors are Robert M. Caffal, Freeman
It. Raldwin, H. Rolet Peraza, consul
general for the Greater Republic of
Central America in this country; Thos.
F. Cromwell and Francis P. Fleming.
The capital is $75,000,000.
The projectors have in mind the
building of a ship canal and railway
to connect the Atlantic with the gulf.
The new canal will be of sufficient
capacity for the passage ot ocean go-
ing vessels. Consul General Peraza,
in sneaking of the project, said:
1 lie new canal w ill , he of ,. gitat ... ad-
vantage in defense of country in ease
of an international war, as well ns he-
inn tug a a great gloat eommereial eomn ei nil benefit nenent in in ease a. e
of peace. It will shorten the tune tor
vessels going to Texas or Mexico by
three days. The w aters around the
‘
southern coast . ot - r ,,, lor Ida • , are very
treacherous, owing to the numerous
currents. AH this danger will be done
away with.
“We expect that 15,000,000 tons of
freight will pass through the canal
each year, ami even light tolls on this
will make the enterprise pay. We
have applied for the charter, and wi !
probably get it next month. As soon
as it is issued we will begin work.
“Mr. Uaital, onr civil engineer, lias
already surveyed the ground, and all
arrangements have been made to push
the work.”
The consul general further said that
the harbor of St. Augustine would be
the eastern entrance to the new canal.
The width of the waterway will be 200
feet through its entire length, and it
will be deep enough to allow the largest
ship to pass through. It will proba¬
bly be about five years before the canal
is finished.

mouth of the river to Jeffersonville, is
lined with white people and negroes,
all engaged in unearthing and prying

One nun: exhibited a small bottle of
them taken from Phillips bayou, a

are darker than the ordinary pearls of
commerce, but are handsomer shaped
and of good size, AH the chain of
lakes in the hitherto impenetrable St.

they prove to be valuable the whole

FOR SEPTEMBER 12.
Li'..on Text: “ChrlMtian Living,”
xll., il-21—Golden Text: “Bo Not
eome of Lvil, lint Overcome Kvll With
Good,” Homan* xll.,
9. “Lot lovo bo without dissimulation.
Abhor that which is evil. Cleave to that
which Is good.” Thell. V. says, “Let love
be without hypocrisy.” The Holy Spirit in
through John >-ays, "Let ns not love
word, neither in tongue, but in deed and in
truth” (I John ili., IXj. The title ot our
lesson is “Christian Living,” which is else¬
where defined as “the life of Jesus made
manifest in our mortal flesh.” The tliir-
toenth chapter of I Corinthians dooribos
the love that was manifest in Christ as
never in any other, and He will manifest
that love and that life in us in proportion living
as we present to Him our bodies a
saeriflco (verse 1). another
10. “Be kindly affectioned one to preferring
with brotherly love, in honor seoketh
one another.” This is the love that
not lu-r own ; not onr own profit, but the
profit of many, that they may he saved (I
Cor. x., 83; xili., 5). Tho “therefore” of
verso 1 of our lesson chapter takes us back
to tho “justified freely,” “justified by
faith,” “no condemnation,” “freely with
Him all things,” etc., of Horn, iii., 24; v., 1;
vlil., 1, 32, and because of all this it is
surely a reasonable tiling that we should
let Him have our whole being, that He may
by renewing our minds transform us into
iiisown Image (item, viii., 29).
11. “Not slothful in business, fervent in
spirit, serving the Lord.” The If. V. says,
“In diligence, not slothful,” and in the
margin says that some manuscripts give,
“serving the opportunity.” The latter
would suggest tho simplicity of I Knm. Clod x., Is
7, "Do as occasion serve thee, for
with thee,” and the former would be in
the line of Col. iii., 28, "Whatsoever ye do,
do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto
men.”
12. “Rejoicing iu hope, patient in tribu¬
lation, continuing instant in prayer. I
think we are safe in saying that the hope
in the New Testament generally, if not al¬
ways, refers to the second coming of Christ
and the events therewith associated. See
Ron), v., 2; viii., 24, 25; Titus ii., 13; I John
iii., 3. The tribulation that worketh pa¬
tience is our privilege all along the journey Heb.
(Rom. v., 3; John xvi., 33; Rev. i., 9;
x., 36, 37), and tho attitude of increasing
prayer is our great privilege as well us
necessity (1 Thess. v., 17; Heb. iv., 16). of
13. “Distributing to tho necessity
saints, given to hospitality.” If one should
bo asked why he worked so hard early and
late at his daily toil, and should reply, that
“That l may have to give to him
ncedeth,” he might seem to be a little un¬
balanced in his mind, but lie would be talk¬
ing, as well as living, according to scrip¬
tures (Epli. iv., 2H).
14. “Bless them which perseeuto you;
bless and curse not.” Now this is easy
talking, but tlie practice of it is not so popu-
lar as to have as yet become the fashion. It
is, however, the plain teaching of our Lord
(Math, v., 44), and He always practiced
what He preached. IfHislife istobe made
manifest in us, this phase of it is surely m-
p WIVS Beautifully manifest in
Htenhtm when he in the midst of their per-
sccutiou looked like an angel and acted
liko th,: LolM Himself (Acts vi„ 15; vii., 60.).
J5 .. Ke j oico with t i„, m that do rejoice,
and weep with them that weep.” The unity
of tho body of Christ is such that when the
members are abiding In Him If one member
suffers all sutler with that one, ana if one
m6m ber be honored all the members rejoice
with it (I Cor. xii., 26). This is as it should
>»’, Git where is it seen? What, then, ails
the body? Is it as in Phil, ii., 21, “All seek
their own, not the things which are Jesus
Christ's?” If so, Iiovv can the body expect
the blessing of the Head? Let each ask
himself. Am 1 a healthy member of His
body or a grief to Him?
16. “Be of the same mind ono toward an¬
other. Mind not high things, but conde¬
scend to men of low estate. Be not wise in
your own conceits.” On the second clause
the margin says, “Be contented with mean
things.” The margin of the B. V. says, “Be
carried away with them that are lowly.” If
we will allow ourselves to bo carried away
with Him who is meek and lowly, who made
Himself of no reputation and humbled Him¬
self unto death for us. He will .surely take
possession of us and manifest His life in us.
17. “Recompense to no man evil for evil.
Provide things honest in tho sight of all
men. Not rendering evil for evil, but,
contrariwise, blessing, knowing that ye arc
thereunto called that ye should inherit a
blessing (I Pet. iii,, 9). Providing for
honest things, not only in the sight of tho
Lord, but also in the sight of men (II Cor.
viii.. 21). Whatsoever things are true, hon¬
est, just, lovely, we are to think on these
tilings (Phil, iv., 8).
18. "If it be possible, ns much as lieth in
you, live peaceably with all men.” This
seems those who very carefully worded. There are
know nothing of peace, they
seem born for war, and yet somehow they
get united to or mixed up with those who
are for peace, and tho peaceful party seems
to be in u good school for the cultivation
bf of patience. Weil, we must “let the peace
God rule in our hearts” and be thank¬
ful that )I<* is able to subdue, for He is the
Prince of Pence (Col. iii., 15: Phil, iii., 21).
19. “Dearly beloved, avenge not your¬
selves, hut rather give place unto wrath,
for P is written. Vengeance is mine: 1 will
repay, saith the Lord.” This certainly can¬
not mean that we are to bo satisfied with
getting angry, but without It. taking venge¬
ance. Rather, as in lIn* V. margin, give
place to the wrath of God. Let Him take
charge of all the wrath and vengeance
business.
20. “Therefore, if thine enemy hunger,
fo'd him; if he thirst, give him drink.for Iii
so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire ou
his hen-l." This is a quotation from I’rov,
\\v„ 21, 22, but tho last clause of that pas¬
sage thee." is omitted, “The Lord shall reward
21 . “Be not overcome of ovll, but over.
come evil with good.” The ornament of a
meek and quiet spirit is iu the sight of God
of great price (I l’et. iii,, 4), anil tin* meek
and lowly one w’ho when lie was rexTIed,
reviled not again; when He suffered, He
threatened not, will work in us this spirit
and live in us this life whenever we ~ are
willing that He should. Tlie word “trans¬
formed” in verse 2 of this chapter is tlie
same w, id that is translated “transfig¬
ured” in Math, xvii., 2; Mark ix., 2, and
“are changed” these in II (’or. iii., 13, and used
only in four pin *es. The last passage
seems to me to show the only way to bo
thu* transfigure,;: ,us therefore let go on

AN OPEN LETTER
From Miss Sachner, of ColumbU3,
O., to Ailing’ Women.
To all women who arc ill:—It af¬
fords me great pleasure to tell you of
the benefit I have derived from tak¬
ing Lydia E. I’inkham’s Vegetable
Compound. I can hardly find words to
express my gratitude for the boon
given to suffering women in that ex¬
cellent remedy. Before taking the
Compound
I was thin,
sallow,and
nervous. I
was trou¬
bled with ‘3S3a|
leucor- rhoea, and Sir
my men¬
strual pe- -m-j-j-i
r i ods were
very irreg- f tt a
ular. I
tried three phy¬ ‘*v
sicians aad gradually grew worse.
About a year ago I was advised by a
friend to try Mrs. I’inkham’s Sanative
Wash and Vegetable Compound, which
1 did. After using three bottles of
the Vegetable Compound and one pack¬
age of Sanative Wash, I am now enjoy¬
ing better health than I ever did, and
attribute the same to your wonderful
remedies. 1 cannot find words to ex¬
press what a Godsend they have been
to me.
Whenever I begin to feel nervous and
ill, I know 1 have a never-failing phy¬
sician at hand, It would afford me
pleasure to know that my words had
directed some suffering sister to health
and strength through those most ex-
celleut remedies.—Miss May Sachner,
348 b E. Rich St.. Columbus, O.

[From St. Louis Court Republic, July 4,18&*.] Juno 30 rlo-
'* The Supremo of Tenuefiseo on
cld«',l tUe moat, tried important in that trado-mark of casoUiat tho largest res
over lio n State and ono
ever tried in the Union, affirming and enlarging tUo
opinion of tho court below. TUe court he d; of
1. That Dr. M. A. Simmons, tho predecessor
complainant, by extensive advertising of bis cele¬
brated remedy known standard aa 4 *Simmon3 liver Liver diseases Medi¬
cine,” made it a remedy for
long pri i to the acquisition by J. II. Zeilin & Co. of
That the assignor of JT. H. Zeilin & Co., through
whom they claimed tho right to make tho fraudulent
packages enjoined, never derived any title from A. Q.
Simmoas to make tho medicine nor to use his cum j
or picture, and that such use by Zeilin & Co. ia a
fraud upon the public, and is therefore enjoined.
3. T hat Zeilin & Co. purposely, fraudulently la¬
beled their medicine in imitation of complainant’s
medicine to unfairly appropriate the trado of the
SJm:non3 Medicine Company, and the execution of
this fraudulent purpose and act is enjoined.
4. Enjoined Zeilin & Co. from using their com¬
petitor Tj trade-name, trade-marks, or symbols, or
imitations thereof, to deceive the tho public of and unfairly
appropriate to themselves trade tho 0. h\
Simmons Medicine Co. from deceiving
6. Enjoined Zeilin & Co a-4
practicing a fraud upon tho public by labeling their
packages in imitation of the wrappers and trade¬
marks of the complainant.
G, Enjoined Zeilin & Co. from the manufacture
and sale of the medicine under tho name of “Sim¬
mons Liver Medicine,” or “Dr. Simmons Liver
Medicine,” or “ Liver Medicine by A. Q. Simmons,”
and from using the picture of A. Q. Sinunoaa in
connection therewith.
7. Enjoined Zeilin & Co., their assignees, agenta
and employes from deceiving and practicing a fra d
upon the public by the sale of packages thus l'alstly
labeled, either upon orders or calls for tho genuine
“Simmons Liver Medicine” of complainant, or
in an iv package thus falsely labeled.
& The court stated that it was the purpose of the
Court to entirely destroy the fraudulently labeled
packagos abovo described, and causo their removal
from the market, and ordered Zeiiin & Co. to d liver
to the clerk to be destroyed, all cuts, dies, electro¬
types, engravings and other paraphernalia used ia
impressing either of the above names cr the picture
of A. Q. Simmons. Co. all the

which have accrued to complainant by The the sale of
these fraudulently labeled packages. $o0,0.0. damages
Claimed by complainant were all tho

which amount to several thousand dollars, tho record
b8lng one of the largest ever filed in tho Supremo
Court. ” -----
Cheap Medicine,
A a a rule, “cheap Zeiiin medicine’ Co.’aauswcr ’ is inert, worthies!!, ot
dangerous. In & to our bill they
said tho packages enjoined were designed ns “cheap
negro medicine for the negroes of tho Mississippi
Valley.” Now, as Zeilin & Co.’s advertisements say,
and their manager swore, that all tho liver medicine
which they make is made by the same formula, is tl.ia
not conclusive evidence from their sworn testimony
and advertisements, that all tho liver medicine eman¬
ating from them is “Cheap Negro Medicine?” Ques¬
tion: Do the eiok of America desire “Cheap Ne gro
Medicine?” Let tho afflicted answer by their
future purchases. Dr. M. A. Simmons’* "J^iver
Medicine, established in alt,” 1»40, is not “cheapmedi¬
cine.” It is ‘no cure and is only recom¬
mended for those indispositi ons caused by inactivity
oi the liver.
