when it is lemembered that no class is"so " well
posted on the subject of which she writes , as
professional women :
NEW YORK , Aug. il. Mr. Wisdom : Dear
Sir Your Kobertine was highly spoken of in
San Ftancisco and a lady friend induced mete
to try it. It is very fine and is an ejcellenl

The Hastings Democrat has made inquiry
as to what has become of the train l ad of
corn sent to the famine stricken Russians last
winter. Since leaving New York nothing
has been heard publicly of its arrival at its
proper destination. It calls on Commissioner
Ludden , if he knows , to enlighten the public.

writes : "Electric Uitters have done more for
me than all other medicines combined , from
that bad feelingarisingfrom Kidney and Liver
trouble. " John Leslie , farmer and stockman ,
of same place , says : "Find Electric Uitters
to be the best Kidney and Liver medicine ,
made me feel like a new man. " J.V. . Gard
ner , hardware merchant , same town , says :
Electric Bitters is just the thing for a man
who is all run down and don't care whether

Foreign agents are canvassing the county

in buying of them. 15uy of men who raise

your money and are never heard of again.
Oh , What a Cough.
Will you heed the warning. The sigi\\
perhaps of the sure approach of that more
terrible disease Consumption. Ask yourselves
if you can afford for the sake of fifty cents , to
run the risk and do nothing for it. We know
from experience that Shiloh's Cure will cure
your cough. It never fails. This explains
why more than a million bottles were sold the
past year. It relives croup and whooping
Cough at once. Mothers do not be without it. For
lame back side or chest use Shiloh's Poious
Plaster. SoldbyA.McMillen.
The learned young editor of the Beaver

A Good Suggestion.
From the Dubuque ( Iowa ) Telegraph.
The adjourning of the impeachment court
last Saturday on account of Gen. Weaver's
belly-ache , cost the people of this common
wealth nearly $5 ° ° i ° ne dose of Chamberlain's
Colic , Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy would
have saved this expense ; and we suggest , as a
matter of economy and humanity , the state
provide against future contingencies of this
nature , by furnishing each senator with a bottle
tle of that valuable remedy. 25 and 50 cent
bottles for sale by George M. Chenery.
La Grippe Again.
During the epidemic of La Grippe last sea
son Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump
tion , Coughs and Colds , proved to be the best
remedy. Reports from the many who used it
confirm this statement. They were not only
quickly relieved , but the disease left no bad
after results. We ask you to give this remedy
a trial and guarantee that you will be satisfied
with results , or the purchase price will be re
funded. It has no equal in La Grippe , or any
Throat , Chest or Lung Trouble. Trial bottles
free at A. McMillen's drug store. Lanje bottles

Hawaiian Annexation.
The feeling- that the monarchical
form of government in the Sandwich
islands is ncaring its end , and that an
nexation to the United States will fol
low , is becoming1 very prevalent in dip
lomatic circles at the capital. That this
is not idle tallc , the views of Dr. Mott
Smith , the Hawaiian minister of finance ,
who is here for the purpose of nego
tiating' a commercial treaty with this
country , arc proof. He expresses him
self as believing that annexation to this
country is inevitable. lie says that the
British on the islands regard the ab
sorption of Hawaii by the United States
as political predestination. And so far
as England resorting to force to pre
vent annexation is concerned , he de
clares that such a thing is not even
tliought of in Hawaii. These arc strong
words to come from- the minister of
finance. They are so regarded here ,
and are received at the state depart
ment with manifest satisfaction. The
satisfaction is due , it is thought , to the
existence of a fear that the rumored in
tention of England to acquire the
islands for herself might be true , in
which event the state department
would more than have its hands full.
Timber in the Xorthwcst.
The great timber resources of the Pa
cific northwest can scarcely be realized
by those who have not visited the im
mense forests of giant trees growing so
close together in many places that it is
almost impossible to travel through the
woods. Twenty million acres of land
are covered with a growth of wood
vhich will cut an average of 23,000 feet
of merchantable lumber. Much of it
will cut an average of 100,000 feet or
more , while single trees are common
.that will cut 3,000 feet each. The Port
Townscnd Leader estimates the quan
tity of merchantable lumber standing
in the forests of Washington at 1GO-
000,000,000 feet sufficient to supply all
the markets of America for generations ,
and yet send fleets laden with ship tim
bers to every port of the civilized world.
Oregon , in the Coast and Cascade
ranges , and in the counties along the
ocean from the Columbia river to the
California line , has as much more tim
ber , and these two great sister states ,
unless devastated b3T forest fares , will
never run short of building material.
IN each human life is planted some
natural aptness. If it is intense men
call it genius ; if it appears in a lesser
degree it is known as talent , which ,
with energetic cultivation , often out
strips indolent genius. Our inborn
gifts , says a writer in the Old Home
stead should be very dear to us so
dear that we must not fold them away
for safety , thus proving ourselves un
worthy of them , but bring them out ;
let them see the light of day and give
them every advantage for perfect de
velopment. Work for them with a
will , and if your efforts are true and
persistent your gift , whatever it may
be , will repay yoii a thousand times.
It will illuminate your ideas , your in
fluence and your life with its brilliance ,
and make itself part of your own per
sonality.
As LOXG as there are weddings there
is bound to be misfit wedding presents.
If people would only take a little more
care in selecting wedding presents
brides would not be so burdened with a
lot of useless articles which , if they
were to express their candid opinion
about , they would be glad to get rid of.
Donors seem to have a mad desire to
give all sorts and kinds of spoons that
are utterly unavailable for ordinary
occasions and have a doubtful signifi
cance anyway. In selecting a gift the
taste and station in life of the recipient
should be very attentively pondered
over , but too often display is the first
and only consideration.
A FAEMER living near Bloomington
has a whip which he picked up cheap
at an auction sale. He has been of
fered one hundred dollars for it many
times , but refuses to part with it. It
has a very thick and rather clumsy
stock of solid ivory , which weighs near
ly seven pounds. From indistinct marks
on it , resembling a date , it is thought
the whip was made in 1784 or about
then. It was probably brought from
England. A curious whip that carried
off prizes at the first London and Paris
exposition is now in New York. It is to
be exhibited at the world's fair.
A XEW material for street pavements
is being used quite extensively in Cali
fornia. It is a kind of bituminous rock
found in that state. These pavements
are very like the asphalt pavements in
New York and other eastern cities.
The only difference between the two
materials is said to be that asphalt is a
manufactured article made of bitumen
and sand , while the rock has practi
cally the same elements naturally com
bined.
NOTWITHSTANDING our boast that the
progressive spirit of the age is outstrip
ping the barbarism of war it is true , as
Admiral Luce says , that men will never
cease to war. While arbitration is
now the panacea for that national ill
the fact remains that genius of inven
tion has never been so prolific as now
! n improving implements of war , and
war has never been so systematically
studied as at the present time.
PEACE and good order combined with
patience and intelligence are the forces
which are elevating the American
workingman to-day and upon these he
must rely. Disorderly demonstrations
serve only to check his 'advancement
and injure his cause.
