How foolish this sounds Yet it is fearfully true. We are ter rined at the approach of the cholert and yellow fever, yet there is a dis eaae eonstantly at our doors and ii our houses far more dangerous and destructive. Most people have ir their own stomachs a poison, more slow, but quite as fatal as the germs of those maladies which sweep men into eternity by thousands without warning in the times of great epi demics. But it is a mercy that, if we are watchful, we cau tell when we are threatened. The following are among the symptoms, yet they do not always necessarily appear in the same order, nor are they always tho Bame in different cases. There is a dull and sleepy feeling; a bad taste in the mouth, especially in the morning; the appetite is change able, sometimes poor and again it seems as though the patient could not eat enough, and occasionally no appetite at all; dullness and slug gishness of the mind; no ambition to study or work ; more or less head ache and heaviness in the head; dizziness on rising to the feet or moving nuddc-nly ; fiured and coat ed tongue ; a. sense of a load on the stomacii that uthing removes; hot and dry akin at time; yellow tinge in the eyes; 6canty and high-colored urine ; s ovr taste in the mouth, fre quently attended by palpitation of the heart ; impaired vision, with ots that seem to be swimming m e air before the eves ; a coutfh, with a greenish-colored expecto ration j poor nigkto' rest; a sticky slime about the teeth and gums; handd and feet cold and clammy ; irritable temper and bowels bound up and costive. This disease has puzzled the physicians and still puz zles them. It is the commonest of ailments and yet the most compli cated and mysterious. Sometimes it is treated as consumption, some times ft liver complaint, and then again as malaria and even heart dis ease. But its real nature is that of constipation and dyspepsia. It arises in the digestive organs and soon affects all the others through the corrupted and poisoned blood. Often the whole body including the nervous system ia literally starved, even when there is no emaciation to tell the sad etory. Eip iecoa has shown that there is put ona rmedy that can certainly cure this disease in all its etages, namely, Shaker Extract of Roots or Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. It never fail but, nevertheless, no time should be lost in trying other so called remedies, for they will do no good. Get this great vegetable preparation, (discovered by a vener able nurse whose name is a house hold word in Germany) and be sure to get the genuine article. GIVE.V tTP T 8XVKH DOCTORS.

That spirit to whose charge 'tis eiven To bathe young buds in dews of Heaven . Awaking from bis light repose. The aDgel whispered to the rose "Oh, fondest object of my care. Still faireet found where all are fair. For the sweet Bhade thou giv'st to me Ask what thou wilt, tis grantsd thee Then,"iaid the rose, with deepened gl''". "On me another grace bestow." The spirit paused, in eileDt thought What grace was there that flower hid not? Twas but a moment; o'er tho rose A vail of moes the angel throws. And. robed in Nature's simplest weed. Could there a flower that rose exceed? TH E PARTING K1S There was ominous silence in the gnug little cottage of John Win throp, at old Nantucket. It was the calm after a storaj. John and his wife of eight months had quar-: relied for the first time, that pleas ant June morning. She was pout ing, and he was sullen. The wordy dispute was over, but each was unwilling to make the first advance toward a reconciliation. The ori gin of the quarrel was trilling, hardly worthy of mention. The coffee was not strong enough to suit John, and he had said so in words less gentle than he might have used. The wife's feelings were hurt, and her retort was not followed by a soothing reply. John Winthrop was a fisherman, lie had money iff tne bank, and had a sloop, christened the Martha Jane, after his wife, besides being the proprietor of a neat looking house and a few acres of ground. He had received a fair education in the schools of Provincetown. He was a hearty, rugged, handsome young man; ana wnen a province town girl, Martha Jane Kemington, accepted him, it was universally admitted that she had obtained an excellent husband, while he was equally fortunate in his choice of a wife. It was John's custom every morn ing before starting for his boat, to give his wife a parting kiss. From the day of their marriage th s had never been omitted, and with the touch of tho lips of her whom he loved above all ou earth still warm upon his own, he had begun with renewed vigor his daily routine of toil. This morning he hesitated The irritation aroused by their toolish dispute had not yet passed away, when the old upright clock in the corner pointed the hour to go. As ne steppea toward tne door he relented somewhat. He turned toward his wife. She was still silent, but her face was raised eagerly toward him, and tears trembled on her eyelids. In a mo ment she was clasped in his arms, and with more fervor than ever before, he imprinted on her lips the parting kiss. Her sweet smile spoke love and reconciliation more plainly than words. The blue fish were running, and it was a busy time for the fisher men. All that forenoon John Win throp worked too actively to give much thought to anything else. He did not even notice the rising cloud in the northwest, slowly ex pounding and growing denser and darker as it mounted toward the zenith. The storm came with the suddenness and fury of a hurricane. It did not find Winthrop and his crew of two men wholly unpre pared; for, like experienced fisher men, they always had such emer trencies in mind. The Martha Jane was a staunch boat, and John de cided that his best course was to run before the gale toward the open sea, and thus avoid being broken on the rocks, or stranded on the sands. The storm would probably last but an hour or two he thought, and then he could make for home, later than usual, but soon enough to prevent his wife from suffering much anxiety. The storm, however, proved to be more than a passing hurricane When it diminished somewhat in fury, it maintained sufficient ener gy to prevent any hope of the hsherman s sloop being able to tack in a contrary direction, and the only chance for safetv was in running with the gale. Night came on, with the Martha Jane bounding before the wind far out on the broad Atlantic. At times, it seemed that the stout little boat would surely be engulfed; but, thanks to the skillfal steering, she rode securely, rising like thing of life from the seething valley of waters to the crest of a mountain billow, only to sink out of sight again in another vast furrow of the ocean. It was long Bight. It seemed as if dawn would never come. John stood at the wheel or at the bow the weari some hours through, peering into the darkness, and keeping up the courage of his men with enlivening and hopeful remarks. But while his attention to duty never flagged his mind was far away in old Nan tucket, and ha often thanked God that he had not left that morning without the parting kiss. Midnight passed so John Win throp's watch told him ; but all was still black as midnight. The glim mer of the lantern was hardly visible from the deck. Ihe only reuei to tne intense darkness was the phosphorescent gleam of the boiling foam. Only the direction of the storm and the waves could be told. As to all else, human precautions were powerless. When no more warning than the lightning stroke gives to its victim, the crash came. There was a grind ing noise, a smothered cry for help, and the Martha Jane sank into the depths of the boiling cceau. At the moment of the crash, John Winthrop instinctively grasped a chain, whose links swung loosely against him. He could not see, bnt he could feel that it was the anchor chain of a vessel. He was pulled on board. His companions had gone down with the sloop, and it was useless to think of any attempt at rescue. The vessel which ran down the Martha Jane was bound from Bos ton to the west coast of Africa. Winthrop was carried to Sierra Leone. Too self-reliant to ask for assistance from others, he accepted the first opportunity to get employ ment as a sailor on a brig running to London. Thence, with the earn ings of the passage, he took the first steamer to New York. Let us go back to the cottage at Nantucket. It is needless to de scribe the anxiety of the young wife when she saw the breaking of the terrible storm. She did not sleep that night, and, like her hus band far off on the raging ocean, she thanked Heaven repeatedly that, whether lost or among the liv ing, he had not gone in the morniDg without the parting token of a , wife's affection. As days, weeks and months passed, and no tidings came of John, Martha began to lose the hope that he might possibly have ' been picked up by a passing vessel, and carried to a distant shore. But ' still her loving heart refused to I give him up as dead, and morning and evening she looked with long ing eyes toward the broad ocean, which, she believed, held the secret of her loved one's fate. In due time a little stranger ar rived to claim her devotion, and divide her love with the abesnt hus band and father. It was called John Winthrop, Jr. It was a crisp, clear evening in December. Martha was sitting in her cozy cottage, looking out at the beach, and the stars which glinted on the peaceful winter sea. Her babe was in her arms. Her face was pale, but perhaps fairer even than before it had been impressed by the chastening influence of grief. A shadow passed the window ; there was a knock at the door an old ie, familiar knock. Martha's heart was in her throat. She did not wait for the woman who had been her companion (or several weeks to answer the call. She opened the door, and in a moment she and the baby were in the arms of her husband. "I little thought," be said, as he concluded, at the supper-table, his long and interesting story, "that so many months would pass before I would clasp my wife in my arms again. It will be a lifelong lesson to me, whatever difference we may have, never to go out tor the day, lor toil or for pleasure, without a parting kiss. New York Ledger. The Absoluteness of the Moral Law. The sanction of the moral law is not derived, as Mr. Iiomaues con siders, from tho fact that it is our interest to obey it. He is greatly in error in supposing that the reason whv it is the chief end of man to glorify God, is because this is '.he happiest thing for him to do. That is not the reason. And that Mr. Romanes can suppose it to be the reason is a melancholy testimony to tbe absolutely unethical nature of his philosophy. The moral law is absolute. The obligation of the Categorical Imperative does not arise from the fact that we shall be comfortable if we obey it. A thing is right simply because it is right. Neither personal nor tribal advan tage is the measure of ethics. The idea of obligation has uot its root in the idea utilitv. The concept of justice is not derivate; it is original. but a thing is not honest because it ii politic, "Virtue alone is happi ness below,"' Pope declares, in his splendid verse; and he is right. But it is not because of the reward inherent in it that virtue is virtue. "The idea of duty differs by the whole diameter of existence from the idea of self interest.'' True it is, and the first of truths, that "Because right is right, to follow right Were wisdom, in the scorn of conse quence.'' Consequence! It is beside the question. "Belter were it," says Cardinal Newman, "for sun and moon to drop from heaven, for the earth to fail, and for all the many millions who are upon it to die of starvation in extremest agony, so far as temporal affliction goes, than that one soul should tell one willful untruth, though it harmed no one, or steal one poor farthing without excuse.'' This is the language of the theologian. But the philosopher gives a like judgment. "The dic tum, 'All's well that ends well,'" Kant happily observes, "has no place in morals." And morals have no real place in any philosophy which bases itself on the doctrines of utilitarianism. Forum. Reading Barns. In these days cheap reprints and public libraries make the best books accessible to the poooest people. It is difficult for one to put himself in the place of the poet Whittier who, when a boy, lived where books were so few that a chance volume was hailed as a blessing. The poet thus narrated to the Rev. Robert Collyer an episode in his life: When I was on the farm in New Hampshire, and quite voung, an old Friend who was- visiting the meetings came to stay one night After supper he said to me, "John lad, I've something for thee," and then brought out of his saddlebags two little volumes, which turned out to be Burns's poems "I think thee'll like the book," he added. I had never read any poetry be lore, except hnends poetry, and thee'll know what that be! I began to read isurns, anil was lost in wonder. It seemed as if the sky had lifted and the world widened, and I saw mankind outside the narrow bounds of the Friends. I read on till mother came down and told me to get to bed. Next day, when the gray light was dawning, I crept down and got the volumes, and read as long as J could. The old Friend came and said "Thee seems to like it. I'm going further, on, and I'll leave it till come back." That was the hrst revelation to me of what poetry may be and do. Run by a Mad EDginecr. Des Moines, Ia., September ."J. Fireman Roberts of the Y a bash road arrived here yesterday on nis train, and tells a thrilling story of his experience with a mad engineer. When the train drew out of this place Tuesday night Fngineer Botsworth appeared to be all right, but before they had gone far Roberts noticed that his com panion acted queerly. At Harvey he should have stopped lor water, and the fireman backed the train up to the proper place, wmie tue engineer acted in a dazed man ner. Once on the road again the engine began to travel faster until it was running fifty miles an hour. Roberts realized that Botsworth was deranged, and just in time grasped the lever at Knoxville and saved the train from going through an open switch, last flew the engine, Bostworth scanning Dy wiin a vacant smile, and as they thun dered onward the maniac gave a yell and sterted to spring from the cab window. The watchful fireman caught him by the legs, and while he balanced him on the window ledgs he managed with his foot to stop the train. The conductor helped to get him back to the bag- gag car where he was careiuny guarded to Ottumwa and there turned over to the authorities. It is believed .to be paralysis of the brain that Botsworth is suffer ing with. The consciousness of integrity gives ease and freedom to the mind Care of Teeth. A mouthful of good teeth is one of the rare gifts ot nature. Like bright eyes, pinkmooned fiuger nails, or a fine complexion, thej indicate the bequests of heredity, and are symbolic of a sweet breath, good digestion and a wholesome stomach. A wealth of dentine is not as formerly, owing to the re markable progress made in dentis try in the last quarter of a century. Molar-menders think nothing of working a cheval de rise sort of a set ot teeth into a double row of presentable ivories, and the skill with which china teeth are made to duplicate nature is sufficient to keep genuine articles under a con stant ban of suspicion. All these facts we doubtless known to the fashionable mother who prayed for "jus such eyes and fine complex ion" for her little daughter. Eyes and skin from nature, and art can manage the rest, as least to the satisfaction of the modern beauty. In remodeling teeth, everything f ai Is before the final surrender to a false set. When they overlap, space has to be made at the sacrifice often of good material, and when by ac cident, a tooth is wanted, the gap is filled by spacing the whole row. In the color of teeth almost as much variety exists as in hair and eyes. Some teeth are naturally gray, yellowish or blueish in cast, and to try and whiten them is time wasted. The only solace lies in keeping them clean and straight. It is immaterial to any one with a mustache or a very long upper lip, whether he has any front teeth or uot. For ladies or beardless men especially those who laugh much with the lips, a remedy is sought amoDg the Del s'Arte jpeople. Those refiners of nature attempt, and with success, too, to cultivate a very low voice in speaking, forbid the incense of heated discussion, and endeavor to cultivate a laagh jin the eyes, rather than about the j lips. The training is a long and tedious tasK, duc mere are iew or deals too severe for a fashionable man or woman to endure, when the goal is good looks. It is almost impossible to say anything new on the subject of pow ders. Ihe best powder is the one that does the least harm to the gams and keeps the enamel clean. vVintergreen ia safe to any polish but a frequent use of soft soap and warm water renders much of the cleansing powder supeifluous. Teeth that are brushed four times a day will not need a powder more than once a week. Tooth picks are indispensable, and even with them it is often necessary to run a thread between the teeth to remove any possible accumnlation or splinter, There might be a diminution of dentistry bills if those who have teeth would take the trouble to clean them once a month. Five cents' worth of pumice stone will cover a year, and nothing but match is needed to start with. Dip the pine in the stone and rub between ;the teeth till all trace of mineral accumulation ?has been removed. The inside surface must be cleaned separately, and the task finished by rubbing the face and crown of the tooth with soft handkerchief dipped in the powder. Unless the operation is made habitual it will oonsume the best part of an hour to produce any good effects. Ihe Uirl Who Helps Mother. There is a girl and I love to think of her and talk of her, who comes in late when there is company, who wears a pretty little air oi mingled responsiblity and anxiety with he youth, whom the others seem to de pend on and look to many comforts She is the girl who helps mother In her own home she is a blessed little saint and comforter. She takes unfinished tasks from thr tired, still fingers that falter atthei work; her strong figure is a staff upon which the gray haired, white faced mother leans and is rested She helps mother with the spring sewing, with the week's mending with a cheerful conversation and congenial companionship that some girls do not think worth while waiting on only mother. And when there comes a day when she mus bend, as girls must oft-n bend over the old worn out body of her mother, lying unheedful in he coffin, rough hands folded, her long disquiet merged in rest, something very sweet will be mingled with her loss, and the girl who helped mother will find a benediction o peace upon her head and in her heart. Exchange. Check-Reins on Herses. Do away with the check rein The head should be free from restraint and carried naturally The horse will not tire so quickly and the convenience at watering troughs is great. A horse looks just as well with its head in a natural position, and otten better, and it is far more comfortable for the animal. A horse with its head free can draw a load more easily, and increas the leverage by lowering its head. A tight cheek will almost bring on paralysis in the "neck, and it must be exdeedingly painful to keep the muscles and cords stained to one tension all of the time. It is cruel. If people are so unwise as to torture themselves at the caprice of fashion, for the sake ol humanity don't torture the animals put in vour care, it is not any less a sin because a dumb beast is the victim Cruelty is cruelty anywhere. "Pulled Right Out." Many persons have an aversion to terms that smack of the technical. The old man who would not take the prescription written by his physician " Oleum Ricini," had no objection whatever to a dose oi castor oil, which it was. A woman with her face swathed in nannei droppea in to see aneign- bor and responding to a friendly inquiry about her health, said, "I've been sufferin' awfully with the toothache for a most a week." "Why don't you go to a dentist?" 'I did go to see Dr. Jerkem." "Well, did you have the tooth extracted!" "No, indeed, I reckon I didn't. I jest sot down and had it pulled right ont." A Kiss Among Ancient Ro mans. Among the Romans, if a man kissed his betrothed, she gained thereby the half of his effects in the event of bis dying be fore the celebretion of their mar riage. If the lady herself died under the same circumstances, her heirs or nearest of km took the half due to her. A kiss was regarded very seriously by the ancient Romans. Chicago Times.

"Why," said he," I am going to buy a whole lot ot Cloaks and put them away as an investment. I find the prettiest, handsomest and the most Stylish lot of Cloaks here that 1 have ever seen in this town and tbey are at only half price. Really I have never seen any thing to reach them."
