TRUE AS GOSPEL.
Thecause of bimetallism is grow
ing daily. Governor Pingre of
, Michigan, says that the republican
party will never again win anothr
5 victory on the single gold stand
ard. .The republicans are legislat
ing to make the people pay more
for every thiiigthey consume, with
out legislating for a financial
system that iv ill give the people
more dollarsj with" which to buy.
A nation cannot grow rich by tax
ing itself, nor can its people, be
prosperous and happy with a jfi-
nancial system-under which dol
lars grow scarcer ad dearer, and
property cheaper. -Virginia Gaz

The Best Remedy for Rheumatism.
From theFairhaven )N. Y.) Register.
Mr. James Rowland of this vil
lagetates that for twenty-five
3rear8 his wife has been a sufferer
from rheumatism. A few nights
ago she was in such pain that she
was nearly crazy. She sent Mr.
Rowland for tb doctor, but he
had read of J ChamberlanV Fain
Balm and instead of going for the
pb v sici an he went to thestore arid
secured a bottle of it. His wife
did not approve of Mr. Rowland's
purchase at first, but nevefheless
applied the Balm thoroughly and
in an hour's time was able to goto
sleep. She now applies it when
ever she feels an ache or a pain
and finds that it always gives re
lief. He says that no medicine
which she had used ever did her
as much good. The 25 and 50 cent

THE LESSON IN DEATH.
And thus, death is not really so
much the summoning of those
who die to a hew life in a celestial
realm, as it is the summoning of
those who live to a new , life in
this realm. On them now descends
the manlle of &z old generation.
On them now falls the stress and
cripjs of battle. It is for them to
show that the labor that has tol
led so long, that love that protect
ed them in childhood, the oppor-
tumtes that now fall to them, have
not been wasted, misspent, and
turned to no account. They whom
we lay in the grouud are still for
a time as much with us as if they
were 6imply gone on a journey, or
were asleep in their bed at home.
we see them not, except in tnougnt.
We hear them not, except in
memory W take, counsel of them
only, by recalling their warnings
ana ineir qualities., uui in ja
spiritual sense they are with us
still : they are in us still ; they can
strengthen our hearts and inspire
energies. And if they die like, the
grass that is cut by the mower it
is we and our hardness and un-
kindness that are guilty of their
second death, t
Out Virginia neighbors are very
much outraged by a proposition to
remove the remains of George Wash
ington from its sacred resting place
at Mt. Vernon to ttye cemetery In
New York by the side of Hhe rem'ainn
of Gen, U. S. Grant. The proposition
eomes from the N. Y. Herald and is
so absurd andjrreverent jthat It wil
be discarded aB Rounis proposed
This sacrilegious removal of there
mains of beloved and distinguished
deceased is too much in vogue and
savors too much sacrilege to be en
couraged. When the final assign
ment of dust to dust is pronounced
It should remain to the final resur
rection. Economist.
