NURSING Nothing is more conducive to the comfort of the sica than to have an able nurse.

Every woman should know what to do and the best way of doing it in case they are sud denly called upon to care for the sick. INFANT FEEDING This section alone is worth many times the price asked for the book.

She will find what is the best food for the baby, and the very latest and best way to prepare it. DISEASES OF CHILDREN The treatment of children's dis eases has been revolutionized during the past few years; all that is new and by experience proven to be the best, has been incorporated in this section. No book of recent date, not even for doctors, is as ad vanced in its treatment of this important branch as this book. Ths late treatment for that dreaded disease Diphtheria which has proven so fatal to so many, is here fiiven.

The very best means are minutely described for restoring this organ to a healthful state after being once deranged. THE LIVER Every individual knows the vast role this organ plays in the human organism. If it be out of fix the whole family and most of the neighbors know it, for he is a nuisance to himself and all about him.

It then tells how these may be corrected and the organ restored to its healthy con dition. : EC U" JM UnEPS 3VEOX1.X:.

Prom the Journal, Wllmington,;Ohio. One of the fertile farms of the rich Ohio valley, seven miles from Wilmington, the county seat of Clinton county, unio, ana but a short distance from the small town of Melvin. their nostofflce.in ncozy little country home, resides John Arra- smith, and his wife, Minnie. A. few days since a representative of the Journal drove out to Melvin to see tnem. Id the course of her conversation, Mrs. A. detailed the facts of her cure. "Last July," she said, "from undue ex posure in my work about the farm, I contracted malaria and rheumatism, and suffered from the illness greatly. I could not throw it off, aud although constant ly attended bv local physicians, contin ued to grow worse. In September I caught a severe cold, hich greatly in creased my other troubles, and taking to my bed, there 1 lay for monttis. ine rheumatism grew more aggravated, and for eight long weeks prior to last Christ mas I was perfectly helpless, my limbs below the lips being as if paralyzed, and I having no use of them whatever. I could not helD myself in any way, aHd was not able to turn over in bed unless my husband or some one else came and turned me. Medicines which the physi cians left did no good, and nothing I could take afforded any relief. I was dis couraged, and feared that never again would I be ud and about the house. It was anything but a bright prospect, for I was only twenty years old, had been married but two years, and my life was before me, and to go through it a help lees cripple, a burden to my friends, was a fearful fate to think or. "I had read in the Wilmington Journ al from time to time articles telling'of the wonderful cures which had been ef fected bv Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and had become impressed with the cases where they had caused people to walK and recover who had been as helpless as I was. Consulting my husband, we de termined to give tbem a trial. So he drove into Wilmington and, going to the drug store of George W. Brown, bought three boxes of the pills. I began taking them immediately on his return. That was about the first of the present year. Before the first box was gone I began to realize that I was getting better, and by the time I had finished the second box the pain with which I had been suffering for nearly six months and the disease which had made me helpless for eight weeks disappeared entirely and 1 got up. I took the third box of the pills and have never felt a twinge of the rheuma tism since, and I am doing my daily work and feeling as well as anybody." To confirm the story Mrs. Arrasraitli made the following affadavit: Sworn before me and subscribed in my presence at Wilmington, Ohio, this 29th day of June, 1895. C. Q. Hildebhant, Clerk of Court. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo ple are now given to the public as an un failing blood builder and nerve restorer, curing all formsof weakness arising front a watery condition of the blood, or shat tered nerves.

Y. The June Arena. The June Arena opens its 16th volume, appearing in a new dress, and being printed by Skinner," Bartlett & Co. It is an unusually strong number, opening with a brilliant paper by Rev. Samuel Barrows, D. D., the distinguished editor of the Christian Register, of Boston, on "The First Pagan Critic of Christian Faith and His Anticipation of Modern Thought." Justice Walter Cfark, L.L.D., of the su preme court of North Carolina, contrib utes an instructive and' delightful paper on Mexico, the interest , of which is en hanced by several excellent illustrations, including a recent portrait of the presi dent of the Mexican republic. The presi dent of the Mercantile National Bank of New York contributes "A Proposed Plat form for American Independents for 1896," which illustrates how strongly the silver movement is taking hold on eastern financiers no less than the mass of voters in the south and west. Recent ly J. Cook, the veteran banker who float ed the government bonds in 1861, at the time of our sorest need, came out boldly for free silver. Mr. St. John, who has made finance a study for many years, and who is president of a bank having a capital ot J 1,000,000, is no less pronounced on this subject. Another paper of special merit, on "Bi metallism," appears in this number by A. J. Utley. It is able, and, from a silver point of view, very convincing. Prof. Parsons of Boston University law school continues his masterly papers on the "Government Control of Tele graph," a series of careful papers hither to un approached in authorative charac ter. Mr. B. 0. Flower, the editor of the Are na, writes in a most captivating manner of Whittier, considering him in the light of a "Poet of Freedom," and giving many of Whittier's most stirring lines. A fine portrait of the Quaker poet forms a frontispiece to this number. The edi tor also discusses somewhat at length in his editorials the message of Whittier to men and women of today, and the proposed platform of Mr. St. John. An other interesting feature of this issue is Mr. Altweed Pomeroy's illustrated paper on the "Direct Legislation Movement and its Leaders." Students of the higher metaphysical thought of our time will be deeply inter ested in Horatio W. Dresser's paper en titled "The Mental Cure in its Relation to Modern thought." Will Allen Drom goole continues her powerful serial of "Tennessee Life," and Mrs. Calvin Kry der Ueifsuider's "Psychical Romance," which opened a few months since, is pre faced by a digest of the preceding chap ters. It is also profusely illustrated with exceptionally fine drawings. These are by no means the full quota of the strong attractions of this brilliant number of America's great, progressive, reformative and liberal review. INDEPENDENT. NEBRASKA CROP REPORT.
