Everybody will then observe what a smart man he would be if he would only let whiskey alone , and thousands of lies will be told for his benefit. FERDINAND WARD cnuldn't keep the books of Perry & Co. , the labor contract ors in Sing Sing , and has been set to work on a job press. The New York Tribune suggests that had Perry & Co. asked Ferdy to run their contracts in stead of their books he might have made a power of money for them. "How dear to my heart is the family bible , that stood on the table so solemn and still ; where often I've hid every thing I thought liable to fall into the hands of my bad brother Bill. How ardent I've poized it with eyes that were gluwinir. and shook its bright pages un til out the things full ; but now its charm ing secrets arc going , with the new Tangled bibles the book stores do sell. The new fangled bible , the twenty-cent sible , the new revised bible that says sheol for hell. " Chippewa Herald. THE scare attempted by Wall street when it withdrew two millions from the xinks in gold , paying that it was to be shipped abroad , is not likely to make much of a ripple at Washington. Com pared to the hundreds of millions in gold that have come from abroad to swell our currency since the passage of the silver remonetization and coinage net , the little two million of Wall street cuts a very small figure. We sent about twelve millions of silver bullion abroad ast year and nobody thought we were deeding to death in consequence. State Journal. LITTLE Mamie , aged 10 , had just re turned from a children's part } ' . "Iid yjpi dance with Tommy Fizzletop ? " ask ed her mother.No. . I didn't. He ask ed me a dozen times to dance with him , ) ut I refused him. I just let him suf- cr. " "You refused to dance with lim ! Why did you act so impolitely ? " "Because I had my reasons. I don't enow what the little , 6-year-old fellow means. I wonder if he thinks I am go ng to compromise myself. If he thinks 'm anxious to encumber myself with the cares and responsibilities of matri- uony , he is very much mistaken. " Texas Siftings. < : IT is settled that the Burlington will mild at once from Hastings to Aurora , mless some unexpected obstacle shall utervene. The Grand Island extension has become a certainty. Several other extensions are assured. The Union Pa cific will built some branches. The Northwestern will come to Lincoln and extend in other directions. The Mis souri Pacific will do the same thing. Engineers arc invading Nebraska from the east and south. The Rock Island looks constantly upon the immeuse busi ness going out of the state and wants a share of it. There is ample assurance that the year of our Lord , 1886 will be one of grace , peace and plenty. " Topics. WITH Beck and Randall marching unconsciou&l } ' , perhaps , but marching ' out of the democratic camp , one at the ' head of the adherents to protection and j the other of the silver men , will leave few in it except generalissimo and the camp followers. Beck is a braver and better man than Randall. He has not the policy of the cool and cautiousl Pennsylvanian , but he has the power of courage and honesty. There is no sym pathy between these two men in either motives or action. Randall is one of the greatest politicians of the day. Beck is a statesman , dwarfed hy early defi ciencies. But between them they arc likely to givethe word to the two bonr- bon horses facing in different directions that Cleveland is trying to ride at the same time. Topics. For several.years Chamberlain's Cough Remedy lias been prized for its speedy and jertain cures of.croup. It Is the favorite and i main reliance with thousands of mothers. It' ' will not only cure croup but if freely used as ioou as the first indication of the disease ap pears , that Ls as soon as the child becomes the least hoarse , it will prevent it , doing away ivitli all danger and anxiety. There is not : he least danger in giving'the remedy freely , is it coutaias no injurious substance. Sold > y M. A. Spalding and Willey & Walker.
