Neuralgia, Sprains,
. Pain in the .Back and Side.
t There is nothing more painful than these
diseases; but the pain can be removed and
the disease cured by use of Perry Davis'
Pain Killer.
Thia remedy Is not a cheap Benzine
or Petroleum product that must be kept
away from fire or heat to avoid danger
of explosion, nor is it an untried experi
ment that may do more harm than good.
Pain Killer has been in constant use
for forty years, and the universal testimony
from all parts of the- world is, It never
fails. It not only effects a permanent cure,
but It relieves pain almost Instantaneously.
Being a purely vegetable remedy, it Is safe
In the hands of the most inexperienced.
The record of cures by the use of Patw
Killer would nil volumes. The following
extracts from letters received show what
those who have tried it think:
Edgar Cady, Owatonna, Minn., says :
About a rear since my wife became subject
to sever, suffering- from rheumatism. Oar
resort was to the Paxx EiLLia, which speedily
relieved her.
Charles Powell writes from the Bailors'
Home, London :
I had ha afflicted three yean with neuralgia
and violent spasms of the stomach. The doctors
at Westminster Hospital gave up my case in
despair. I tried your Pirn Kn.ua, and it gave
me immediate relief. I have regained my
strength, and am now able to follow my usual
occupation.
O. H. Walworth. Saco, He., writes :
I experienced Immediate relief from pain in
the sid. by th. nse ef your Pais Killer.
E. York says:
I hav. used your Prw KrLi. for rheumatism,
ana hav. received great benefit
Barton Seaman says :
Have used Pain for thirty years,
and have found it a tuvw.failing remedy for
rheumatism and lameness.
Mr.Burdltt writes:
It nmrailt to give reMaf In cases of rhenmatinni.
Phil. Gilbert, somerset, Pa. , writes : "
From actual use, I know your Pais Kiixsn
Is the beat medicine I can get
All druggists keep Pain Khxib. Its price
Is so low that It Is within the reach of all, -and
It will save many times Its cost in doc tors'
bills. 25c., 50c. and fl.00 a bottle.

LTSTMAS GREETING. 1CX5I. OX
CHARLES GTJITEATJ.
"Tn-rtav la P,hristman. and I ereet the
American people with a happy Christ-
mas. .Last unristmas x was m ixew
York. I was boarding in a first-class
house and was finely dressed. I atten
ded church and had a quiet and pleas
ant day. Two years ago I was in Bos
ton, out was not so well fed or clothed.
I was on theology. There is no money
in theolgy. I left a five thousand dol
lar law business in Chicago in 1877 for
theology. I went into theology to serve
the Lord and preach the gospel. I had
about as much trouble to get in my
work on theology as Paul did. He
hungered and thirsted and was naked
and nad no certain dwelling place ; but
he preached the gospel as he understood
it, although he had a hard time. Since
he left the earth his name and work
have come dewnthe ages. Christ and
Paul did their work and left the result
to the Almighty Father, and 1 do the
same.
"Christmas, 1878, I was in St Louis.
I was in very reduced circumstances. I
had been on theology a year. I had
spent the year traveling mostly in the
East, trying to breach the gospel by
lecturing and selling my lectures in
Washington, JNew xorK, Boston, unica-
o and otner cities, l ieic tne ljoru pub
thin work on me. and I did the best 1
could. I had no friends and little mon
ey. Christmas, 1877, 1 spent in Phila
dftlnhia. I was well fed and clothed,
andtrvincr to lecture. Christmas, 1876,
I was in Chicago and was working
with Mr. Moody and writing my lec
ture on Christ's second coming, A. D.
.
To-day, Christmas, 1881, I suffer in
bonds as a patriot, but I am in honora
ble company. Washington was a pa
triot. Grant was a patriot. Washing
ton led the armies of the revolution
through eight years of bloody war to
viotorv and elorv. and to-day the nation
is prosperous and happy. They raised
the old war crv. "Bally round the flag,
hovs." and thousands of the choicest
sons of the Republic went forth to bat
tie, to victory or death. Washington
and ftrant bv their valor and success
in war won the admiration of man
kind.
" Tn-dav. Christmas. 1881. 1 sutler in
bonds as a patriot because I had the in
sDiration and nerve to unite a great po
litical party, to the end that the nation
mieht be saved another desolating war.
I do not pretend war was immediate,
but I do say emphatically that the bit
terness in the Republican party last
spring was deepening, hour by hour,
and that within two or three years or
1bs t.h nation would nave been in a
flamn of civil war. In the presence of
death all hearts were hushed, conten
tion ceased. For weeks and weeks the
heart and brain of the nation centered
on t.h sick man in the White House
At last he went the way of all flesh and
the nation was in mourning. And to
day, Christmas, 1881, 1 am on trial for
mv life, charcred with murdering the
late President.
"There is not the first element of mur
der in this case. To constitute the crime
of murder two elements must co-exist
thirst, an actual homicide; secondly,
maiine in law and malice in fact. The
law nresnmes malice from the fact of
the homicide. There is no homicide in
thin case, and therefore no malice in
law. Malice in fact depends on the cir
n instances attendine the homicide,
Admitting that the late President died
from the ahot which I deny as a mat
ter of fact still the circumstance at
tending the shooting liquidate the pre
sumption of malice, either in law or in
fact Had he been properly treated he
nmhahiv would have been alive to-day
whatever niv inspiration or intention
Tha Tieitv allowed the doctors to finish
my work gradually because he jwanted
to prepare the people for the change,
and also confirm my original inspira
tion. I am well satisfied with the Deity s
conduct of this case thus far, and I have
ho doubt but he will continue to father
it to the end. and that the public will
sooner or later see the special Provi
dence in the late President's removal,
"Nothing but the political situation
last snrincr iustified his removal. The
break in the Republican party then was
widening week by week, ana l ioresaw
civil war. Mv inspiration was to re
move the late President at once, and
thereby close the breach before it got
so wide that nothing but a heartrend
ing and desolating war could close it
Th last war cost the nation a million
of men and a billion ot money. The
Lord wanted to prevent a repetition of
this desolation, and inspired me to exe
rj his will. Whv did he inspire me
in nrAferencA to some one else? Be
cause I had the brains and nerve, prob
ably, to do the work. The Lord does
nnr. omnlov imcomoetent persons to
serve him. He uses the best material
h nan find. J$o doubt there were
of Republicans who felt as I
did about the late President wrecking
the Republican party, and had they the
conception, the nerve, the brains and
the opportunity and special authority
from the Deity, they would nave re
moved him. I, of all the world, was the
only man who naa auinarity iruui mo
Deity to do it Without the Deity's
pressure I never should have sought to
remove the President This pressure
destroyed my free agency. The Deity
compelled me to do the act just as a
highwayman compels a man to give
him nionev. often Dlacine a pistol at his
han T-he victim may know it is ab
solutely wrong for him to give money
that his wife and children need, but
how can he keen it with a pistol at his
hoaH 9 wis free aorencv is destroyed and
h rivA his monev to save his life.
Thi -irrosistihle nresence to remove the
President was on me for thirty- days,
QnH it naver left me when awake. It
haunted me day and night. At last an
opportunity came and I shot him in the
Baltimore and Potomac depot As soon
as I fired the shot the inspiration was
worked off and 1 felt. immensely re

duced certain witnesses who are guilty
of rank perjury, and it has excited my
wrath, and l have denounced tnem in
plain language. 1 hate the -mean de
ceptive way of the prosecution. My
opinion of the district attorney is well
known. The defense had been unfor
tunate in having insufficent counsel,
but notwithstanding this Iexpect jus
tice will be done me and. my motive
and inspiration vindicated. People are
saying : w en, n tne Liora aia k, let it

as well he prooaoiy wouia nave oeen
alive to-day. He was a good man, but
a weak politician, l am especially
pleased with Gen. Arthur's conciliatory
spirit and wisdom toward the opposi
tion. It is exactly what I wished him
to do, viz: Unite the factions of the
Republican Dartv to the end that the
nation may be happy and prosperous.
"My life nas been ratner a saa one.
My mother died when I was seven.
My father was a good man and an able
one, but a fanatic on religion. Under
his influence I got into the Oneida
Community at 19 and remained six
years. Thiee years alter mis l was
unfortunately married, ana so contin
ued four vears. Soon after I was di
vorced I went on to theology three
vears. Mv life in the Oneida commu
nity was one of constant suffering. My
married life the same. My tneoiogicai
life one of anxiety, but I was happier
at that than anything else, because I
was serving the Lord. My life has been
isolated. During my six years in the
Oneida community I got estranged
from mv relatives. I might as well
have been in prison or a lunatic asy
lum. I never was able to forgive my
father for running me into that com
munity. If it had not been for this I
should have had a far happier life. But
let it go. Forgetting the thing behind,
I press forward. 1 have no doubt as to
mv spiritual destiny. I have always
been a lover of the Lord, and whether
I live one year or thirty I am His. As
a matter of fact, I presume I shall live
to be President. To-day eighteen bun
dred and eighty-one years ago the Sa
viour of mankind was born in poverty
and obscurity. He moved up and down
Judea, and spoke as one having au
thority, vast multitudes followed
Him. He cast out devils, healed the
sick, restored the blind and diseased ;
told the multitude who He was, and
what He came for; "that God the
Father, had sent Him to point the
races the way to eternal life, lhis won
derful being had nowhere to . lay ms
head. He had no money. He had no
friends. He never traveled. He never
wrote a book. He was hated, despised,
and finally crucified as a vile imposter.
Then back He went to the bosom of
the Father. During His ministry He
drew around Himself a few despised
individuals, who were as poor as Him
self. They had no money and no stand
ing in society, and were mostly fisher
men.
"Outwardly, like most other great
events in human history, the origin of
Christianity was an absolute failure. It
was like a seed planted, ana it naa to
grow little by little. Time has devel
oped it into a gigantic tree, overhang
ing the naoitaoie giooe. xne moo
crucified the savior of mankind, and
Paul, his great apostle, went to an
ignominious death. This nappenea
many centuries ago. For eighteen cen
tunes no men have exerted sucn a
tremendous influence on the civilization
of the race as the despised Galilean and
his great apostle. They did their work
and left the result with the Almighty
father. And so must all inspired men.
Thfiv must do their work and leave the
result with the Deity, whatever be
it :.v. w ta. v
comes of them personally. The worst
that men can do is to kill you, out tnev
cannot prevent vour name and work
from eome thundering down the ages,
God always avenges those who injurs
his men. unrist s contemporaries cru
cified the Almighty's only son, but He
got even with the Jewish race at the
destruction of Jerusalem, A. D. 70,
when Titus, a Roman general, razed
that citv to the ground and slaughtered
over eleven hundred thousand Jews,
and front that day to this the Jews
have been a despised and downtrodden
race. The mills of the gods grind slw,
but they grind sure. Woe unto any
man or men that persecute God's man.
The Almighty will follow them in this
world and the next.
"Take my own case. When the pres-
.
sure to remove me .rresiaenc came
upon me I spent two weeks in prayer to
make sure of the Deity's will. At the
end of two weeks my mind was fixed as
to the political necessity for his re
moval, and I never have had the slight

it, and a great many people are begin

and more as time advances, 1 put up
mv life on the Deityk inspiration, and
I have not come to grief yet. and I have
no idea I will ; because I do not think
I am destined to be shot or hung. Eat
