FEB. 8. 1884 Wa clip the following item from the State Journal, in refereuce to Henry. B. Holmes, who was burned to death at Blooniingtou, Neb., a few night since- The telegraph columns of The Jour nal have lately couUined two awful temperance lectures. A-few days ago a. man named Anderson was burned to death in his store at Sacramento, this state. Yesterday morning a special dispatek contained tke intelligence that Henry B. Holmes, of Blooming ton, had met a like fate in his bam. We knew Holmes. He was not a drunk ard. He was a moderate drinker who "knew when he had enough." But at last he, drank too much. Not so much but that he. could reach home in safety and go to his barn and see about his stock. He had drank enough to dull his intellect and make him careless. Ho probably struck a match, lighted his lantern, and "dropped the blazing lucifer unnoticed upon the Jiay. The blaze sprang up, and when he, turn ing from the rear ot the burning build ing, would go out, he found himself confronted with a wall of fire. His sen sations during the few awful seconds left to him cannot be contemplated without a shudder. A genial and pop ular man, a good citizen, he is cut off by the demon of alcohol, leaving a widow and children to batttle with the world alone, the same fell fiend that deprived them of husband and -father sweeping away much of their means ofsubsistance. Young man, the only safety is in abstinence." Holmes at one time was a resident of Bed Cloud, and run a stage line. WHERE THE FIRE IS OUT. Magic No More a MysferySeen From Acros the World. "Hnroun of Aleppo," said Sir Philip Derval, "had mastered every secret in nature which the nobler magic seeks to fathom. He discovered that the true art of healing is to assist nature to thiow off the disease to summon as it were, the whole system to eject the enemy that has fastlped on a part. His processes all included the reinvig oration of the principle of life." In this the Eastern sage merely an ticipated the practice of the beet phy sicians of to-day. What life itself is, nobody" knew then nobody knows I now. But we have learned something jt of the reasons why the mysterious tide rises and falls. Provided the great organs of the body are not irreparably destroyed, medical science can always relieve, and often save. Yet no reput able nhvsician now adheres to the bar- barous and stupid processes of deple tion, sucn as oieeumg, oy wuitu it wan attempted to cure disease by reducing the patient's ability to resist it. Now-a-days we do not tear down the fort tc "help the garrison we strengthen it. In this intelligent and beneficial work it is conceded that Parker's Tonic leads all other medicines. As an invigorant it acts immediately and powerfully up on the circulation aud the organs of digestion, thus giving nature the nssist . ance she calls for. It follows that all ailments of the stomach, kidneys and liver are at once relieved or cured. No other preparation embodies the same qualities or produces similar results. It is delicious to use, and the best known anti-intoxicant. Price 50c and $1. Hiscox & Co., New York. A GREAT DISCOVERY.
