O, listen to their tale of woe And sad dissatisfaction; Kepubhcans and Democrats For they have no attraction. Neither party's good enough To suit these modest saints; Because they can not have the earth They're loud in their complaints. The country's going to the dogs; It's on the verge of ruio; The people are demoralized, And dreadful things are brewin. The workiugman is not half paid; Can't always haye his way; Can't have champagne but once a Should have it every day. week, Newspapers all are subsidized. If not completely muzzled; Curruption stalks in brotvl di jlight, And everybody's puzzied. Public opinion's shut up tiht; Che ap labor beats down wages, And men denied the right to strike And ride in cushioned stages. The fruit of toil of honest men Are taken "nolens volena'' To baild up for & few In other words they're stolen. A vast conspiracy 'gainst mankind Is quietly 'inderway To make men take four dollars each To work eight hours a day; To force them down to eat and drink, At morn and evening meal, Ueef and Dork, and cheese and beer. And wine not 'Golden Seal" What all these ''sockless'' prophets want, The burden of their "yelp," Is some one else to pay theit debts That's governmental help; Want money loaned at two ptr cent On mortgage number two, And "hat" money by the ream To pay their honest due; Want silver bars worth seventy cents Stamped in a go rnment mold To make them worth a hundred centJi So they can trade for gold; The railroads and the telegraph And e'en the telephone, Must all be worked by Uncle Sam, And Uncle Sam alone. The People's party wants all this- These Pefitrs, Fields and Weavers, Half-baked, turned djvvn, back numbers all, They're simply paid deceivers. This party's life thank heaven is short: Its eyes will soon be sot; For like the buried Greenback craza It's just infernal "rot." No land beneath the shining sun Is half so good as ours; No people on the face of earth That labors shoiter hours; No better clad, nor better fed, Creation never saw; Where men of ev'ry race and clime Stand equal 'fore the law. Cream as Food And Medicine. (New York Tribune. Persons consumptively inclined tl 09e with leehle digestion, age people and those inclined to chill nesfl ocd cold extrt mitiep, are es pecially benefited by a liberal use of sweet cream. No other article of food or medicine will s?ive them re salts equally satisfactory, and either as a food or medicine it is not bid to tnkf. A9 n antidote for a ten dency to consumption it act- like a churrn , and serves all the purposes intended to be served by cod liver oil, with much greater certainty nd effact. Where sweet cream can be bd cod liver oil Is never needed. The volatile and easily appropriated anctuout: matter io cream, besides contribufing directly to warmtii and vigor aidsindlrectly by promoting vlijje?tioi), for th same reason and in the same way that othor aromatic attenuatpd oils aid the digestive fanction. While cream has special merits lor crtain kiiide of invalid?, there are no objections to its use bj any or all persons. It is an inno cent, palatable, nutritious luxury f r everj'hody at all times. Bad Book3, Cld Homestead.) Never uuder any circumstances read a bad book; and never spend a serious hour in reading a second rate book. No words can over-state the mischief of bad readiag. A bad nook will often haant a man his whole life long. It is often remem bered hen much that is better is forgotten ; it intrudes itself at the most solemn moments, and contam inates the reelings and emotions. Reading trashy, second rate books is a grievous waste of time also. In the first place, there are a great many more first-class books than yoa can master; and in the second place, vou cannot read an Inferior book without giving np reading a first rate book. Book?, remember, are friends books, affect character; and you can as littlle neglect your duty in respect to this as you can safelj any other moral doty that is cast upon yoa.

Horticultural Times, There Las beea discovered in Ni caragaa a flesh-eating or rathtr man eating plant, which is called by the oatives Hbe devil's snare." In form it is a k'.nd of vegetable octopus vt devil fit'h, and it is able to draw blood of aoy living thing which comes within its clutches. It ap pears tbat a Mr. Danlan, a natural ist, has lately returned from Central America, wnere he pent two years In the etady of plants and animals of those region . In one oT the swamp which aorroanded the great Nicaragua Lake he discovered the aingukr growth. He was engaged in hunting for bo tanical and entomological specimens when be heard his dog cry out as if in agony from a distance. KunniDg to the spot whence the animal's cries came Mr. Danstan found him enveloped in a a perfect network of what seemed to be a fine, rope-like tissue of roots and fibres. The plant or vine seemed composed entirely of bare interlacing stems, resembling, more than mytbing else, the branch es of the weeping willow denuded of of its foilagc, but of a dark, nearly black hue and covered with a thick viscid gum that exuded from ti e pores. Drawin2 his knife Mr. Dnntan attempted to cut the poor beast free, bat it was with the very greatest dif ficulty tbat he managed to sever tl fleshy muscular fibres of the plant. Mr. Dunstan saw to his horror and amazement that the dog's body wn blood-stained, while the skin Appear ed to have been actualiy sucked or puckered in spots and the animal 6taggercd as if from exhaaetion. In cutting the vine the twigs curled like sinuous (iriger8 about Mr. Dunstan's hand and it required no slight force to free the member from its clinzmg grasp, which left the flesh red and blistered. The gum exuding from the vine was of a grayish dark tinge, remark ably adhesive and of a disagreeable odor, powerful and naaseating to in hale. The natives showed the great est horror of the plant, and recount ed to the naturalist many stories of its death-dealing powers. Mr. Don Stan said he was able to discover very little about the nature of tbe plant owing to the difficulty of hand ling it, for its grasp can only be shaken off with the loss of skin and of even flt;9h. As near as he could ascertain, however, its power of snr tion i contained in a number of in finitesimal mouths or littie suckers, which ordinarily closed, open for the reception of food. If tae suhstanco is animal the blood Is drawn off and the carcass or refuse then dropped. A lump of raw meat bein,; thrown in, in the Bhort space of five minutes the blood will b thoroughly drunk off and th mf-s thrown aside. Its voracity is almost beyond belief. There are some patent medicines that are more marvelous than a noz en doctors' prescriptions, but they're not those that profess to cure every thing. Everybody, now and then, ftels "run down," "played oat." They've the will, bat no power to generate vitality. They're not sick enough to call a doctor bat just too sick to be well. That's where tbe tizLt kind of a patent medic ide comes in, and does for a dollar what the doctor wouldn't do for less than five or ten. We pat io our claim for Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. We claim it to be an unequalled remedy to purify the blood and in vigorate the liver. We claim it to be lasting init3 effecte, creating an appetite, purifying the blood, and preventing, Bilious, Typhoid and Malarial fevera if taken in time' The time to take ii is when you fmt feel the signs of v:: wariness awl v::ak litss. Th3 tim? to tak'. ir, on gpner-,-l principle", is NOW. i - ." i. A Million I'rieniU. A friend m need Is a friend in deed, and not less than one million people have found jasj such a friend in Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coaghs, and Colds. If you have never 09ed thi9 great Cough Medicine, one trial will con vince tbat it has wonderful curative powers in all diseases ef Throat, Chest and Lungs. Each bottle it guarauteed to do all that i3 claimed or money refanded. Trial bottles free at E. T. Whitehead & Co. Drug store. Large bottles 50c. and $1.00. THE WRECK AT THE CLIP by i rv. rt)WAi.r a.
