Charles fj. Wobstor, senior member oi | the firm thnt is publishing Uon. Grant's book, said recently that ho had just hundod to Mrs, Gtrnnt tho firm's ohock for $159,003, tho second installment duo her undor tho GonoraPs contract. Ifor seventy per cent, of tho profits on tho sale of the book will continue during tho twenty-eight years of copyright protec- tion secured to tho work, so thntsho will doubtless receive anywhere from $0CO,- 000 to $703,000. Mr. Webster also said that his firm contemplated publishing an edition do luxe of the book, each copy containing portions of Con, Grant's ori- ginal manuscript Tho edition will probably be limited to 500 or 1,000 copies, and will bo sold for $100 each. The Montreal Church Guardian says that \the Pennsylvania Railroad has been quioty making some experiments to ascertain whether it would pay for a big railroad company to remember the lord's Day. A good many excursion trains and somo regular passenger trains have been discontinued. All the freight trains etcept those carrying live stock, and perishable goods have been ordered off from 8 o'clock on Saturday night until midnight on funday, and all repairing on Sunday has been stopped. The re- sults have proved so satisfactory that the directors are now arranging to make these experimental changes permanent and to extend them. That a large cor- poration should have been willing to try the experiment of Sunday observance after years of violation of that day, is a most hopeful sign of tho development in moral tone. That after trying the ex perimentit has found tho result so satis- factory that the change is to be extended and made permanent, was not unlooked for by those who had examined this sub ject in its physical and social as well as its meal bearings. Such afact as this ifl one of those practical arguments that are wholly unanswerable.\ A strange story has been developed in the County Register office at Reading, Penn. Judith Pauley, a lady seventy years old, sets f ;rth by petition that after forty years had elapsed she discovered at last that her husband, whom she had mourned as dead during all that time, was not dead, but that he had been liv- ing within fifty miles of her all the time entirely unknown to her. Samuel W. Pauley and his wife, the above named Judith, resided at Allentown forty years agJ. They had. several children. When tho Mexican war broke out Pauley en- listed and was a brave soldier. Some one must have maliciously written to him while he was absent that his wife and babes had died, and when the Mexi can campaign was over Pauley, dread- ing to go back to his old homo to find only the graves of his dear ones, located at Womelsdorf, a small town fifty miles away, where he lived until he died. His wife continued living at Allen- town, and with her children concluded that husband and father had perished-in Mexico. Fence it was that for forty years they lived within fifty miles of each other, ea h thinking the other dead. Pauley, believing himself widower, married again and raised a family of children. Recently he died, aged seventy years, and his estate was worth over §5,000. Letters of adminis- tration were granted to Joseph Hcl- singer, who married a daughter by the second marriage. In the newsapers the original Mrs. Pauley, who had never married again, read of the old Mexican soldier's death, and her curiosity was arou ed. She sent a man to Womels- dorf to inquire into the' matter f and to her great surprise learned that it was her own husband who had just died. She now claims to be the log.il widow, and wants what is hers of her long absent husband's estate. The Bov. Dr. A. H. iowis writes In the Popular Science ifaMhly on tho origin and! results of Sunday legislation. His con- tention is that the clay was first instituted by pagan sun-worshipers, and that it has only boon possible to maintain its status in Christian potions by tho constant ex- orcise of the authority of tho State. • Pow persons on visiting a museum consider thnt such objects as skelotons roquiro a certain fitting for exhibition. Yot the preparation of skeletons for the market constitutes a distinct industry, to which n large manufactory in the suburbs, of Paris is devoted, Corpses arc sup- plied from dissocting-rooms tnd hospi- tals. On its dolivory tho raw matorinl is boiled for days in a cauldron, and tho grease which rises to tho surface is skimmed off and sold. Tho bones arc carefully assorted and converted into ar- tificial skeletons. The preparation of frogs, lizards and various reptiles occu- pies a separato department. The final estimates for tho gigantic iron tower which is to be a feature of the French exhibition of 188!) are now ready. The state will contribute 1,£00,- 000 francs, and tho rtmninining sum of 0,000,000 francs will bo furnished by tho contractors, who will acquire possession of the tower for twenty years. There is still some disputo about its height. Tho difficulty will shortly be solved in this way: A enptivo balloon will bo letup to the proper height, and four cables, reaching down to the ground, will rep- resent to tho oyo the four edges of tho tower. At intervals flags will be hung to mark out the positions of the several stories. From Bobolink to Rico Bird. \Bang!\ it is tho first gun of the sea- son. There is ft .rattle of shot among the reeds. \Bang! Hang! Bang!\ The deadly drops of leaden rain goes hissing : through the perfumed air, and there is a puff of drab-colored feathers and bobo- link. Ah! he is bobolink no more,noth- ing now but a greedy little rice bird. He and his allrightened family fly for life, and among the elder bushes they sit panting until they think all danger is past, and then Mr. Rob says \chack 1\ Mrs. Bob answors \chack!\ Shall, they try it again? All the little ones in a chorus cry \chackS\ and the party return to the feast. \Bang!\ Poor Bob! He reels—tries to fly—a stinging pain—his wing is broken, and down among the golden grain he flutters. Scattered around are his little family, their plumage all torn, and the little black eyes are grow- ing filmy. A rough grasp, and Bob's head is torn from his quivering little body and boboling is no more. \Heah's yo'nice, lat rice birds!\ It is Charleston .market. Six plump little bodies on a strand of bear grass. \Heah's yo' moo fat i-ice'birds.\ It is tho bobo- link family, victims to their own gor- mandizing and epicurism. \Jiang out that sign, 'Rice birds on toast,'\ says the restauranteur. The indolent waiter shuffles around and brings out a piece of pasteboard with tho legend put on with a marking pot. A drummer comes, tugging two valises up the street, and a little negro trots along with two more. \Hey old man, rice birds?\ \First of the season,\ answers the caterer, nndtho little wanderers are straightway embodied in the big wanderer, and the big wan- derer pays $1 for the privilege, calls for beer, and the romance of the bobolink is ended.— Atlanta GemtituUjp^ The family of Hon. W. B. Hoko, Judge of the Jefferson Count}', Ky., Court, used StC Jacobs Oil with signal success. A ST, THOMAS (Canada) veterinary surgeon recently pulled tho unsound tooth of a dog. Tho dog sat up in a chair and acted vory human, opening his mouth readily, yelling when the doctor pulled, and fainting dead away when the tooth came out. Mr. F. Kentsehlor, San Francisco, Cal., con- tracted a severe-cold,, and became so hoarse he could not speak. Ho tried a numbar of remedies without benefit, and even the efforts of two physicians failed to give the slightest relief. Ho was induced to try Bod Star Cough Cure, one bottlo of which entirely cured him. Two bulls met in an Arkansas town and fought so fiercely that no one conld separate thorn.

Hew is V6H:?0i Kfftofiigliy All Suoh Hoc fUt^utn if. r, poti.tiytrm A gentleman who hui spont the summer abroad, vaia to our reporter, that tbe thing that impressed him most of all was tho num- ber of holidays one, oncountoj-s abroad and the little anxiety the people display in the conduct of business affairs. \Men boast here, ho said, \that they work for years with- out a day oft; in Europe that would bo con- sidered a crime.\ Mr. H, H. Warner, who was present at the time, ssid; \This is tbe flrse summer in years that T have not spent on the wator. Been too busy,\ \Then I suppose you have been advertis- ing extensively*\ \Not at all. Wo have always heretofore closed our laboratory during July, August and Septombor, bat this, summer wo have kept It running day and night to supply tho demand, which has been three times greater than ever before in our history at this sea- son.\ . \How do you account for tbl»?\ \Tho inoroase has come from the tmiver- $al recognition of the exnellcnctt of our preparations. We have been nearly ton years before the public, and the sales are constantly increasing, while our newspaper advertising is constantly diminishing. Why, high scientific and medical authori- ties now publicly concede that our Warner's safe cure is the only scientific specific for kidney and liver diseases, and for all the many diseases caused by them.\ \Have you evidence of this;\ \Abundnncel Only a few wceks^igoDr. J. L. Stephens, of Lebanon, Ohio, a specialist for the cure of narcotic, otc,,habits, told me that n number of eminent scientific medical men had been experimenting for years, test- ing and analyzing all known remedies for the kidneys and livor; for, as you may bo aware, the excessive use of all narcotics and stimulants destroys those organs, and until they can be restored to health tho habits cannot bo broken up! Among the iiivesti- f ators woro sueb men as J. M, Hall, M. D., 'resident of tho State Board of Health of Iowa, and Alexander Noil, M. J)., Profossor of Surgery in the College of Physicians and Surgeons and president of the Academy of Medicine at Columbus, who, after exhaustive inquiry, reported that there was no remedy known to schools or to scientific inquiry equal to Warner's safe cure!\ \Are many persons addicted to the use of deadly drugs?\ \There are forty millions of people in the world who use opium alone, and there are many hundreds of thousands in this country who are victims of morphine, opium, quinine and cocaine. They think they have no such habit about them—so many people are un- conscious victims of these habits. They have pains and symptoms of what they call malaria and other diseases, when in reality it is the demand in the system for these torrible drugs, a demand that is caused largely by physicians'prescriptions which contain so many dangerous drugs, and strong spirits, and one that must be answered or silenced in thekidneys and liver by what Dr. Stephens says is the only kidney and liver specific. He also says that moderate opium and other drug eaters, if they sustain the kidney and liver vigor with that great remedy, can keep up these habits in modera- tion.\ \Well does not this discovery give you a new revolution of (he power of safe cure?\ \No sir;for years I have tried to convince the public that nearly all the diseases of the human system originate in some disorder of the kidney's or liver, and henco I have logically declared that if our specific were used, over ninety per cent, of these ailments would disappear. The livor and kidneys seem to absorb these poisom from the blood and become depraved and diseassd. \When these eminent authorities thus pub- licly admit that there is no remedy like ours to enable the kidneys and liver to throw oil the frightful effects of all deadly drugs and excessive use of stimulants it is an admission of its power as greatas any one could desire; lor if through its influence alone the opium, morphine, quinine, cocaine and liquor habita can bo overcome, what higher testimonial of its specific power could bi asked for ?' \You really believe then, Mr. Warner; that tho majority of diseases come from kid- ney and liver complaints!\ \Idol Wh3n you see a person moping and grovelingabout, half dead and half alive, year after year,. yoO may surely put him down as having some kidney and liver trouble.\ \The other day I was talking with Dr. Fowler, the eminent oculist of this city, -who said that half tho patients who rame to him for eye treatment were affected by advanced kidney disease. Now many people wonder why in middle life their oyo sight becomes so poor. A thorough course of treatment with Warner's safe euro is what thoy need more than a pair of eye glasses. The kidney poison in the blood always attacks the weak- est part of the body; with some it-affects the eyes; Withothers the head; with others the stomach or the lungs, or rheumatic disorder, follows ahd neuralgia tears them to pieces, or they lose the powers of taste, sniell, or be- come impotent in other functions of the body. What man would not give his all to have the vigor of youth at command?\ \The intelligent physician knows that these complaints are but spmptoms; they ore not the disorder, and they are symptoms not of disease of the head, the eye or stomach, or of virility, necessarily, but of the kidney poison in the blood and they may prevail ahd no pain occur in thekidneys.\ It is not strange that the enthusiasm which Mr. Warner displays in his appreciation of his own remedy, which restored him to health when the doctors said he could not live six months, should become infectious and that the entire world should pay tribute to its power. For, as Mr. Warner says, the sales are constantly increasing, while his newspaper advertising is constantly dimin- ishing. This speaks volumes in praise of the extraordinary merits of his preparations. iil<ie'»Y<irr of tho Conwtook Silver Rode, lu the early days, before the diseoirery oi silver, $oys a writer in the Ovtrlanit, Snowshoe Thompson carried letters from California to the miners who were at work in tho placer diggings on Gold Canyon at and about Chinatown (now Dayton), and at J'olmtown, at. that time tho mining metropolis of Nevada—thon Western Utah. Ho also carried lottors and papers to miners working on Six- milo Canyon, at the head of which Vir- ginia Gity now stands. Ho saw tho hole in which Peter O'lioiiley and Pat McLaughlin struck the first silver ore, a short time before the strike was made, and was told by thorn that they were getting .\very fair prospects\ in gold. In Juno, 180C, O'RoHIey and Me- Laughlin cot into a sort of heavy, blue material, filled with gold, which thoy did not understand. Thoy could get nothing out of it but gold, yet it was so hoavy that they thought it must bo the oro cf somo metal. Thompson took a sample of this stuff, wrapped it in a piece of ordinary check shirting, and curried it to Placorvillc. There ho showed it to Professor W. Frank Stew- art, tho well known geologist and min- ing oxpert, who was thon editing the Placervillo Observer, and to whom Snow- shoo was wont to bring items from Gold Canyon and the \Plains even as far cast as Salt Lake City. Mr, Stewart at once pronounced tho \blue stuff\ to be silver or,e of the richest kind. The sam- ple was carried to Sacramento and as- sayed, whore it was found to be black sulphuret of .silver, and so rich thnt the nssayer could hardly believe his figures. About tho samo time a sample of the ore was assayed at Nevada City, Col., with (he samo astonishing results. Then at onco broke out a-grand excitement over the news of the wonderful silver discov- ery that had been made east of tho Sier- ras, in \Washoe as the Comstook min- ing region was then called. We Appeal to Experience For a long tfmo wo steadily rcfusod to pub- lish testimonials, believing that, in the opinion of tho public genorally, tho groat majority woro manufactured to ordor by .unprincipled parties as a moans of dlsposingof their worth- less preparations. Tbot this view of the case is to a certain ex- tent true, there Can bo no dpubt. At lost, several years ago, wo cams to the conclusion that every intelligent person can readily discriminate botweeii spurious and bona fldo testimonials, and determined to use os advertisements a few of the many hundreds of unsolicited certificates in our posses- sion. In doing this we published them as nearly as possible in the oxactlangtiago used by our cor- respondents, only changing tho iihraseology, -in some cases, so as to compress thorn into a smaller space than they wouidotherwlse occu- py, but without in tho least exaggerating or de- stroying the moaning of the writers. wears glad to say that our final conclusion was a correct ono—that a letter recommending an article having tru» merit finds favor with the people. The original of every testimonial published by us is on file in our office, an inspection of which will prove to tho most skeptical that our assertion made above, that only tho facts are given as thoy appear therein, is true. But as it would bo very inconvenient, if not Impossible, for nil of our friondsto call on us for that purpose, wo invito those who doubt (if there be such), to correspond with any of fho parties who3e names are signed to our tes- timonials, and ask them if wo have made any- mlsstatemouts, so far as their knowledge ox- tends, in this article. In other words, if we have not published their letters as nearly ver- batim as possible. Vory respectfully, ^ , . ™ . „ E. T. HAZELTINE, Proprietor Piso's Cure for Consumption andPlzo's Remedy- for Catarrh. We append a recent letter, whioh came to us entirely unsolicited, with permission to publish it: DATTTOS, Ohio, Jan. 12, 1886. Yon may add my testimony as to the merits of Piso's Cure for Consumption. I took a severe cold lost February, which settled on my lungs. They became ulcerated and Were so painful that I had no rest for two days and nights. I got a bottle of Piso's Cure for Con- sumption, and was relieved by the time I had taken half of it. Since that time I have kept Piso's Cure in the house, and use it as a pre- ventive, both for lung troubles and croup, for which I can recommend it as the best medicine lever used: and that is saying a great deal, for I have used at least twenty others, besides about as many physicians' proscriptions. Piso's Cure for Consumption has never failed to give relief in my family. A. J. GRUBB,- .3? Springfield St An Awlul Ilnnui of any nature isnsually avoided by those who havoioreslght.
