ResDonsc to aToast at a Ben Franklin Banquet
"All tilings change in the procession
of years , and it nmv * be that I am among
strangers. It rnaybe that the printer
of to-day is not the printer of thirty-live
years ago. I was no stranger to him. I
knew him well. I built his fire for him
in the winter mornings ; E brought his
rj water from the village pump ; I swept
out his office ; VI picked up his type from
under his stand ; and , if he was-there'to-
see , I put the good type in his case , and
the broken ones among the 'hell matter ; '
and , if he wasn't there to see , I dumped
it all with the 'pi' on the imposing stone
for that was the furtive fashion of tho
cub , and I was a cub. I wetted down
the paper Saturdjvj-s , I turned it Sun
days for this was : i country weekly ; I
rolled , I washed the rollers , I washed
the forms , I folded the papers , I carried
them around at dawn Thursday morn-
ings , I enveloped the papers that were
for thc mail we had 100 town sub
scribers and 850 country ones ; the town
subscribers paid in groceries and tho
country ones in cabbage and cordwood
when they paid at aH , which was only
sometimes , and then we always stated
the fact in the paper and gave them a
pun" ; and if we forgot- they stopped the 1
paper. Every man on the town list
helped edit the thing ; that is , he gave ,
orders as to how it was to be edited ;
dictated its opinions , marked out its "
course for it , and every time the boss i
failed to connect , he stopped his paper.
We were just infested with critics , and
we tried to satisfy-them all over. We
had one subscriber who paid cash , and
he was more trouble to us than all the
rest. He bought us , once a year , body
and soul , for $2. He usedto modify
our polities every which way , and he
made us change our religion four times
in five years. If We 6 or tried to reason ( 1
with him , he would threaten to stop his '
{
paper , and , of course , that meant bank
ruptcy and destruction. That man used
to write articles a column and a half
long , leaded long primer , and sign them
'Junius' 'Vcritas' 'Vox '
or or Populi , .
or some other I
high-sounding j
rot ; and then , after it was
set up , he would come in and
say he had changed his mind which
was a gilded ligure of speech , bscause i j
he hadn't any and ordered it to be loft
out : We couldn't stand such a waste
as that ; we couldn't afford 'bogus' in
that office ; so we always took the leads
out , altered the signature , credited the
articles to the rival paper in the next
village , and put it in. Whenever their
was a barbacue. or a circus , or a baptiz
ing , , we knocked off for half a day , and
then to make up for short matter we
would 'turn over adds turn over the
wholp page and duplicate it. The other
'bogus , was deep philosophical stuff
which we judged nobody ever read ; so
we kept a galley of it standing and kept
on slapping the same old batches of it
in , every now and then , till it got dan
gerous. Also , in the early days of the
telegraph we used to economize on the
the news. We picked out the items
that were pointless and barren of infor
mation and stood them on a galley , and
changed the dates and localities , and
used them over and over again till the
public interest in them was worn to the
bone. We marked the adds , but we
seldom paid any attention to the marks
afterward ; so the life of a * td' add and a
t ? add was equally eternal. I have
seen a 'td' notice of a sheriff's sale still
booming serenely along two years after
the sale"was over , the sheriff dead and
the whole circumstancebecome ancient
history. Most of the yearly adds were
patent medicine stereolypes.aud we used
to fence with them. Life was easy
with us ; if we pied a form we suspend
ed till next week , and we always sus
pended every now and then when the
lishing was good , and explained it by
the illness of the editor , a paltry excuse ,
because that kind of a paper was just
as well off with a sick editor as a well
one , and better off with a dead one than
with either of them. lie was full
of blessed egotism and placid
self-importance , but he didn't
know as much as a three
em quad. lie never set any type except
in the rush of the last day , and then ho

would smouch all the po"etry and leave
the rest to 'Jeff5 for the solid takes. lie
wrote with impressive flatulence and
soaring confidence upon the vastest sub
jects , but puffing alms gifts of wedding
cake , salty ice cream , abnormal water

ways a poet a kind of poet of the 'Car
rier's Address' breed and whenever
his intellect suppurated and he read the
result to the printers and asked for their
opinion , they were very frank and
straightforward about it. They gener
ally scraped their rules on the boxes all
the time he was reading , and called it
hog'wash' when he got through. All (

JUST AS BAD. AS PAINTED.
Widespread Commotion Cauxcc ! by tlto
Terrible Confession of a. PJiyIcIaii.
Tho story published in these columns re
cently , from the Rochester ( X. Y. ) Demo
crat and Chronicle , created a deal of com
ment here as it has elsewhere. Apparently
it caused even more commotion in Roches
ter , as the following from the same paper
shows :
j I Dr. J. B. Ilenion , who is well-known nofc
only in Rochester , but in nearly every part
- of America , sent mi extended article to this-
pnper a few days ago which was duly pub
lished , detailing his remarkable experience
and rescue from what seemed to be certain
death. It wouldbe impossible to enumer
ate the personal inquiries which have been
made at our office as to the validity of tho
' article , but they have been so numerous
that further investigation of the subject
was deemed necessary.
| ' i With this end in view a representative ol
this paper called on Dr. Ilenion at his resi
dence on Andrews street , when the follow
ing interview occurred : "That article of
yours , Doctor , has created quite a Avhirl-
wind. Are the statements about the terri
ble condition you were in , and the way you
were rescued , such as yon can sustain ? "
j ' t " .Every one of them and many additional
ones. I was brought BO low by neglecting
the first and most simple symptoms. I did
not think I was sick. It is true I had fre
quent headaches ; felt tired most of tho
time ; could eat nothing one day and was
ravenous the next ; felt dull pains and my
stomach was out of order , but I did not
think it meant anything serious. The med
ical profession has been treating symptoms
instead of diseases for years , and it is high
time it ceased. The symptoms I have just
mentioned or any unusual action or irrita
tion of the water channels indicate the ap
proach of kidnoy disease more than a
cough announces the coining of consumn. .
tion. We do not treat the-cough. but try j
to help the lungs. We should uufc wasto
our time trying to relievo the headache ,
pains about the body or other symptoms ,
but go directly" to the kidneys , the source of
most of these ailments. "
"This , then , is what you meant when you
said that more than one-half the deaths
which occur arise from IJright's disease , is
it , Doctor ? "
"Precisely. Thousands of diseases arc
torturing people to-day , which in reality
are Bright's disease in some of its many
forms. It is a hydra-headed monster , and
the slightest symptomsshotild strike terror
to every one who has them. I ca'n look
back and recall hundreds of deaths which
physicians declared at the time were caused .
by paralysis , apoplexy , heart disease ,
pneumonia , malarial fever and other com
mon complaints , which I sec now were ,
caused by Bright's disease. "
"And did all these cases have simple
symptoms at first ? " I I
"Every one of them , and might have been
cured as I was by tho timely use of the
the same remedy. I am getting my eyes
thoroughly opened in this matter and
think I am helping others to see the facts
and their possible danger also. " I I I
! Mr. Warner.jvlio was visited at his estab
lishment on North St. Paul street , spoke
very earnestly : |
"It is true that Bright's disease had in
creased wonderfully , and we find , by re-
liable statistics that from ' 70 to 'SO. its
growth was over 250 per cent. Look at |
the prominent men it has curried off , and
is taking off every year , for while many are | I
dying apparently of paralysis and apo
plexy , they are really victims of kidney
disorder , which causes heart disease , par
alysis , apoplexy , etc.Nearly every week
the papers record the death of some promi
nent man from this scourge. Recently ,
however , the increase has been checked and
I attribute this to the general use of my
remedy. "
"Do you think many people are afflicted
with it to-day who'do not realize it ? "
"A prominent professor in a New Or
leans medical college was lecturing before
his class on the subject of Bright's disease.
He had various fluids under microscopic
analysis and was showing the students
wliat the indications of this terrible mal
ady were. 'And now , gentlemen , " he said ,
'as we have seen the unhealthy indications
I will show you how itappears in a state of
perfect health , ' nnd he submitted his own
fluid to the usual test. As he watched tho
results his countenance suddenly changed
his color and command bo'tli left him
and in a trembling voice IIP said : 'Gentle
men , I have made a painful discovery ; I
have Bright's disease of the kidneys. ' And
in less than a year he was dead. Tho
slightest indications of any kidney difficulty
should be enough to strike terror to anv
one. "
"You know of Dr. Henion's case ? "
"Yes , I have both read and heard of it. "
"It is very wonderful , is it not ? "
"No more so than a great many others
that have come to my notice as having been
cured by the same means. "
"You believe then that Bright's disease
can be cured ? "
"I know it can. I know it from my own
and the experience of thousands of promi
nent persons who were given up to die by
both their physicians and friends. "
"You speak of your own experience ; what
was it ? "
"A fearful one. I had felt languid and
unfitted for business for years. But I did
not know what ailed me. When , however ,
found it was kidney difficulty I thought
there wns little hope and so did the doc
tors. I have since learned that one of the
physicians of this city pointed me out to a
gentleman on the street one day , saying :
'There goes a man who will be dead within
a year. ' I believe his words would have
proved true if I had not providentially
used the remedy now known as Warner's
Safe Cure. "
"Did you make a chemical analysis of
the case of Sir. H. H. Warner some three
years ago. Doctor ? " wns asked Dr. S. A.
Lattimore , one of the analysts of the state
board of health.
"Yes , sir. " .
"What did this analysis show you-
"A serious disease 9f the kidneys. "
"Did you think ilr. Warner could re
cover ? "
"No , sir. I did not think it possible. "
"Do you know anything about the reme
dywhich cured him ? "
"Ihave-chemically analyzed itand findit
pure and harmless. "
Jr. Ilenion was cured five years ago and
is well and attending to his professional
I duties to-day , in this city. The standing
oi Dr. ITtnion , 3fr. Warner and Dr. Lp.tti-
laoro in the community is beyond question
! and the statements they make cannot for
a moment bo doubted. 'Dr. Henion's ex
perience shows that Bright's disease of the
kidneys is one of tho most deceptive and
dangerous of all diseases , that it is exceed-
1 ingly common , but that it can be cured if
taken in time.

The French government has coined a
new dollar for circulation in Tonquin in
- east" . Specimens of the coin are to be seen
in London , and it appears to be exactly
the same as the Mexican dollar in weight ,
size and fineness. The superscription , how
ever , is different , and this it is which in
spires the criticism , by those who know
Chinese , that tho later will reject itand
will say : "No wan tee China sid . " It will
be remembered that the United States
formerly coined a trade dollar for circula
tion in the east ; but its deficiency in fine
ness (371)4 ( ) grains instead ,0 377 grains )
soon became apparent to the astute
natives , and they reverted.to , the Mexican
dollar , large quantities of which are still
sent to China. It remains to be seen
whether the dollar provided by the French
government will be more successful.
