"1 was complaining to Dr. Ham bleton a couple of davs ago-about my generally miserable condition, and he asked me why I didn't try the ellieacv of horseradish. It struck me that there was no reason why the fiery root would not be a good thing to use. The grip is a mucous affec tion, and I know of nothing that will excite the mucous membrane iu to lively action quicker than horse radish, so I began to use it generous ly with my meats at meal time.

The truth is that not enough land tvas in cultivation on tiie u jauoke, an 1 to ; the acreage will be increase-; u per ciut. on all the croo. The peniten tiary plants this year are limited to farming. There is no better way than farm ing, so far as Mr, Lea.ar knows, of imploring the negroes who compose the great mass of the convicts. 'They i do not come in competition with in dustries. A question which conns up is whether it is not better to have the State farms on State lauds and not on leased ones."' Now if the farmers are making "overproduction" is not the State making the matter worse? But is this farming paying ? Watch and see if the Legislature is not asked to vote some of the taxes of the people to help carry on this farming. THE 1JIGGKST ADVEmiSKR In the l'nited State is C. I. HoikI, of Low ell, Mas.

During my stiiy in New York I wacon itainly hearing of a ei-rtitia Mr. Anthony Comt-.H 'a., xt ho had at lamed celebrity by a campaign he had undertaken against nudities. 1 imi-t say. for the cnnlit of the New Yorkers, that Mr. Coimtock has canted for himself a reputation as grotewjue as ii was noisy.

An American gen tleman told me that a Philadelphia lady, at whose sit'e he was (seated tne day at table.

Jonathan ii the cousin gentian of John Bull, but yet not su German aa one might iatiSi-ine, fur, if Germany supplies America with three or four hundred thousan 1 iuiiiiirants yearly. tiH'ae Ger mans do not Germanize America; 011 the contrary, thr y them sell es become Aiacri canizitd. One strong proof of this is the way in which women are treated from one end of the Unit -1 States to the other. Whilst Lnsjlish justice givts merely one vr two months' imprisonment to the man who found guilty of having al most kicked Lis wife to death, an Ameri can town is in arms at tho mere rumor of a man having maltreated a woman. An inliabitant of Greene's Kun, Weet county, Virginia, had tx'-n known for some time tu have t u' ject cd bin wife and children to har.di treatment. The com plaint became at last tu g?nc-ral that an avenging tuobtook upon itself tocliastise him. At midnight his Louse was sur rounded. A squad of masked men broke into the house and tied liis hands, took him to thi yard, and gave him a fearful thrashing with cowhides and hickory wlihcs. The following I extract from a Pitts 'burg pciA.r: Oeccge Eurte n, a well to do man of Oldo, cae day turned his wife out ff tha Louse and kft for 1'i.tsburg. l.'ext day he retarned, brinir. with Lira a dashing widow, namcl Fenton, whom he iastalled ia Lid wife's place.

The news spread, and the female neighbors decided to avenge the wife's wrongs. After 10 o'clock at ra'.ht three hundred women went to the house and beat the doors open. Fortcn and the da-Ling wddow were dragged out, the man being chasr-d several blcxk3, and p Ited the. while with rctteu eggs. The w idow waa pounded arid puaime'cd until the police roscued her.

Representative Bailey, of Texas, when seen by a reporter to get his opiniou of the bond issue said: "Speaking for myself, and I am sure that 1 fairly represent the sent iment of nearly .ill the men who op- j tost the issue of bonds. I am as an xious as Mr. Carlisle that this Gov ernment shall ni et every obligation promptly, but 1 can see neither ne cessity nor wisdom in selling mter-est-bearing bonds when we have more than fifty millions profit in the silver bullion purchased under the Shenn in law, which is now an idle asset of the Treasury and which can easily lie utilized to cover the exist ing deficiency. As between using something which we already hav and paying interest on something which we must borrow, it does not seem to me that a prudent business man would hesitate long in making his choice."
