It has been used with such wonderful success in all parts of the world in the treatment of these difficulties that It has come to be considered AN UNFAILING CURE Fob All Sttmhsb Complaints, and such It reallly Is when taken In tame and ac cording to the plain directions inclosing each bot tle. In such diseases, the attack is usually sudden and frequently very acute; but with a safe remedy at hand for Immediate use, there Is seldom danger of the fatal result which so often foUows a few days' neglect Tne inclination to wait ana see 11 me morrow does not bring a better feeling, not Infrequent!; occasions a vast aiauuui ui ueeuiess suiusriu, ouu sometimes costs a me. -. , . .

It Is recommended by Physicians, Nurses In Hosnitals. and nersons of all classes and profes sions who nave had opportunity for observing the wonderful results which have always followed its use. I have Drescrlbed Perry Davis's Pain Killer ex tensively in Bowel Complaint (particularly for chil dren), and It is, In my opinion, superior to any pre paration I have ever used, for the relief of that disease. . . , 1 A.

When perfectly dry it is taken out, aridiagain counted, and the work examined by experts, all of whom are ladies. The sheets found defective in any way are concealed, and the perfect ones placed in a hydraulic press, where an immense pressure is given men. iWhen taken out they are perfectly smooth. They are then sent back to ;the wetting division, where they are again dampened. "What is the next step in their manu facture?!' "Well, they are taken to the printing division, where they receive the second -Ul-iU S Ik.

After this they are taken to the exam ining room, dried, pressed, counted and examined, the same as on both previous occasions. - Prom here they are sent to the numbering division, where they re ceive the numbers that are seen on the upper right corner and left center. Both legal tender .and national bank notes are printed on sheets, and there are al ways tour notes on each. Alter being numbered, the legal-tender notes are taken to another room, where the mar gin is.trimmed from the paper and the notes separated. This is all done by machinery. After being separated they are again counted and placed in pack ages oi 1,000 notes each. This is also done by ladies, who are experts. One lady, a Mrs. Silver, will count 1,000 notes in live minutes. This is the hnal count. They are then ready for deliv ery to the parties authorized to receive them. The national bank notes are not separated, but are sent to the banks that issue them in sheets of four each, so that they may be the more readily signed. The rules governing the bu reau of engraving and printing are very strict. In fact, during working hours the employes are treated more like prisoners than they are like ladies or gentlemen. From 1,000 to 5,500 per sons are employed there, the ladies out numbering the gentlemen considerably. Around the World In S event yive Days. iiondon papers are not fair to Phin- eas Fogg in giving Mr. Ismay credit for the quickest trip around the earth. Verne's phlegmatic hero was constant- stantly putting his best foot forward to accomplish the trip in eighty days from the start. He met and overcame obsta cles with the single purpose in mind to get on. Me nad to taise the convey? ances which offered, for his time went on whether he did or not. With Mr. Ismay it was different. He chose his conveyances and counted only the days of travel. If he elected to wait at any port a week or two for the fastest ves sel, he did not charge the delay in his time account. And with all the advan tages he thus secured he beat Phineas Fogg only five days. He left Liverpool March 23d, going by way of Suez, Pont de Galle, Singnapore, Hong Kong, Can ton, Shanghai "i okohama, San Francis co, and JSew York. He reached .Liver pool about, three weeks ago, having used in travel seventy-rive days in his j ourney around tne eartn. Disgraceful Scenes In England. New York Tribune Cable Special. Society is still excited about the Ba roness Burdett-Coutts wedding, which was looked tor turee !days ago at tne Savoy chapel. An enormous crowd as sembied there and was dispersed bv the polrce amid groans for the Baroness, wno would have been pelted in true British style had she appeared. It is now thought that the wedding will not take place, and that the Baroness will yield to the advice that she receives. There was anotner and more disgrace ful scene at the iunerai or Adelaide Neilson. An enormous assemblage caused great confusion "around the grave. The circumstance' arose, from no disrespect for the deceased actress, but from the impossibility of the au thorities to control the crowd. Eyesight Suddenly R s ored. Cold SDrinz Recorder. : uaot.

Charles Rrnwer. h. w. siAvenson. f!hristnnhpr of the State' The purposes of the corn- pany are first, to demonstrate " the practicability of the Holly system, and htest its ability to furnish heat to any , -part or tne citv rrom one reservoir or boiler-house. The plan is to place, as a trial, twelve immense steel Doners eitn- uu me river jJciuK. pr on uie uanat, from which pipes, arranged to 1 fetain .the heat, will lead underground thorough jthe streets from these main connecting pipes or taps, will run into the house on the same principle precisely as gas ar d water are now served, and the amount consumed will be measured in the same way by gauges or meters. The de gree of heat and amount of steam re quired for each house will be deter mined by, the occupant, and the gauge regulated accordingly. The projectors 01 the scheme entertain no doubt about the feasibility of the plan and the abil ity of the Holly system to supply an abundance of heat from a battery of boilers to every dwelling house, besides furnishing steam for running all the manufactories and institutions in the city, with sufficient force and regularity I J.- 1 -1 l , i n IV. to accomplish all that fire on the prem ises is required to do. If successful, it will be an improvement in every way on the present mode of heating; be sides, its value in the matter of health, safety, cleanliness, and economy would be almost incalculable. To regulate the heat in every part of the house by simply turning a thumb-screw is im measurably above any of the methods now in use. The fact of this system being in practical and successful opera tion in fifteen cities of this country, and the high character of the gentle men at the head of the Cincinnati company, is pretty good evidence that this plan for heating the city is feasi ble. At all events they will proceed to organize in conformity with the laws and open the subscription books, in the mean time the projectors are prov ing their faith by their works. They have arranged for a supply of pipe with a Pittsburg firm, which is to be deliv ered here at the earliest day practica ble, when the work of putting in the mains will begin. By the middle of November they will have about two miles laid and ready to apply the steam, and demonstrate that the days of coal carts are numbered. The House of Lords. London Truth. That the upper chamber will not long continue to exist in its present form can hardly be a matter of doubt; indeed, it has only existed up to now because there has neyer been a Demo cratic House of Commons. If the Irish disturbance bill was thrown out be cause it remotely seemed to imperil the rignts or landlords, it is likely that tne drastic legislation in regard to land which is impending will meet with more favor? With the exception, per haps, of about twenty or thirty peers, the entire body is in antagonism to the political views entertained by the majority of Englishmen. I am not say ing whether the peers are right or the majority is right, but if they diner, it can hardly be supposed that the latter will not overturn the former. The question will then arise whether two chambers or one chamber is the more practical solution of the pailiamentarv system. Much has been said, and much more may be said, on either side. Prob ably the most workable constitution for Anglo-Saxons , is. that of the United States, in which an elective Senate, the members of which are elected for dif ferent terms, so that there is never one general election of the entire body of Senators, exercises legislative and ex ecutive duties. Were we to adopt such an upper chamber, the colonies as well as the mother country, might be repre sented in it, which would greatly tend to the consolidation of the empire. The Carrier-Pigeon in the Canvaks. Fredrtcksburg News The news of the nomination at Tap- pahannock was brought here by a car- rier-pigeon, wmcn nad oeen tauen oown for that purpose Dy a delegate irom tne county. The pigeon, however, being voune and inexperienced, did not make the time expected ; having been sent off from TappahannocK at e o ciock a. m., it did not reach its destination : until about 5 in the afternoon. We suggest that this pigeon be at once put in tram ing and then taken to Aecomac in No- yember to bring us Garrison's majority at the election, it it is not too large tor it to carry, in which event we can pa tiently wait forthe mails.
