GARFIELD »\D HIS WIFE. An Accidental Porn ait—Eyes that Spoke to Each Other. Whitehall Review. The sweetheart of his boyhood—the girl Seldlthe npi whom her tutor loved—was for Gar stir of his heart's horizon till the last moment of his life. In a passage lead ing from the parlor to the dining-room in his honse at Mentor hangs the picture of a nan about to enter the confessional in a cath edral. The resemblance of this sweet face [to that of Mrs. Garfield is very striking, one of those accidental likenesses one some time sobserves in a pioture,and which seems -all the more 6traageand interesting because it was eloved from the painter's fan with out any knowledge of the dear model it so greatly resembles. So market' was the like ness between the sweet, upturned face of the heaven-communing nun ond that of .Mrs. Garfield, that I stopped before it as General Garfield wns taking me in to din ner. "How like Mrs. Garfield!" I ex claimed. She was directly behind me, walking with General S #aim. The married lovers exchanged a fond glance, and Mrs. Garfield said with a joyous smile, "The general calls that his pretty fiivll" This was his pet name for herself, by which he always spoke of the accidental portrait. I never saw two people talk so much with their eyes as those two did It was evident that they consulted each other upon every circumstance of life as it rose, and the ac tion he took thereon was the one which the mutual judgment settled upon as best. I saw him in the senate chamber go through the imposing ceremonial by which he was transformed from a private citizen, one of the muss, to a ruler whose powers, while they last, are more autocratic than any kings. The agitation of the solemn moment had blanched the glowing cbeek, stilled the smile on tho now pale lips but ever and anon he lifted his eyes to her, as she sat in the gallery above ana in front of him, and her calm, unruffled face seemed to give him the response he needed—the only one he could listen to or sought. Any observer versed in physiognomy could see thit nor eyes spoke aloud to him across the sp ice which separated them, saying, "All is well You are doing nobly. "I am proud of you." Behind the unimpassioned mask of her delicate features, held in bon dage by the power of her will and fortitude, there closed the fire of an enthusiast! love for him, to which no cold description in written words can do justice. No one who saw President Garfield after his installation in the White House can fail to have observed the great change which his accession to power bad occasioned in him. Only at intervals did his bright joy ousness shine out again, as at the pleasant home at Mentor. The very day after he became President the struggle for the spoils of office began with a fierceness hitherto unparalleled in all the strife of that kind which has been seen at Washington. He was half- maddened by his desire to do justice to all the contending factions. It was this feeling which made him slow to give irrevocable decisions. I was at the White House one morning, and he referred to his anxiety not to take a step in hast which he might repent at leisure. The humor of his own cautious slowness brongbt back the twinkle in his eye. the smile on his rosy lip. "I don't know when I shall get around to thai," he said. "You know, there's no telling when the Mississippi river will reach a given point." The slug gish movements of the great Father of Waters was bit off to the life by this im promptu epigram. The day I called at the White House to say good-by—I did not think it would be forever—I was shown into the family drawing-room upstairs—an apartment to which the public is not al lowed to penetrate. Mrs. Garfield came in with her daughter Mollie a maiden of 14, her father's self in feature and form. A noble girl! Beside this heiress of her father's grand propor tions, Mrs. Garfield looks smaller than her daughter, yet she cannot be called a little woman. Sweet-voiced, ladylike, her ap parel again most fitting, most simple, most becoming. The president enters clad in a gray morn ing Buit, his hands in his jacket's side pockets. Only a moment! Such a rush of people clamoring to see him! But during this moment husband and wife continually glance affectionately—their old gLince their glance of Mentor, of the Senate Hall, at ea-h other. Eyes constantly look love to eyes that speak again. He complains of the loss of sleep which the pressure of presi dential duties entail. "I only slept four hours last night," he says. But he hopes everything is doing well now. Lif* is to be joyous in the future. There is always some trouble getting to rights when we move house, is there not? So, good-bye and God bless you! And he is gone. —^p»—•—em GROWTH OF SEW YORK'S WEALTH. Costly N Buil tigs—What Central a Done Thirty years ago the total valuation was under $500,000,0U0. At that time we had no Central Park. Yorkville was out of town and Harlem far away. There is no doubt that much of the increase in real es tate value is due to Central Park. The park itself has cost up to the present time interest on the original outlay included, about $43,000,000. The cost of the land was $6,666,000. If the same land was now cut np in building lots it would probably bring nearly $200,000,000. A plot that was sold in 1852. just before the Dark was laid out, for $3,000, is held to-day at $1,250,000. The same rate of increase has net, of course, been maintained all through—only in the best neighborhoods. The three up per wards, comprising the part of the city above the lower line of the Park, were valued 30 years ago at abont $50,000,000. None of the land was then improved. The value of the same section is now estimated at $310,000, 000. AH a large part of the land is still va cant, there is room for a further increase of value that can be reckoned only by millions. It is not at all unlikely that at the end of another 20 years the total wealth of New York will run up to $2,000,000,000. Mon ey is accumulating very fast, and great for tunes are going up almost as rapidly as enormous houses. At the present time a great deal of money is going into buildings, and will remain there, as no other form of investment pays better. It is a poor prop erty that does not yield 6 or 7 per cent, over all expenses. New York never knew such a time as the present for putting up enormous buildings, at a tremendous cost. The number of buildings was greater in some other years, but a single building now may cost as much as a dozen 20 years ago. Four or five stories then was high now we are not sur prised at nine or ten stories. Mention may be made here of a few of the larger new buildings. Mr. Clark, if the Singer Sewing Maching company on the west side of Central park, an apartment house fo? 50 families, at a «ost of $1,500,000. The Na vorra apartment houses on Fifty-ninth street, facing the park, will be the most elaborate buildings of their kind vet put up, and will probably cost about $2,000, 000. In the same neighborhood is the Windeuiere apartment buildings, now near ly finished, and costing $350,000. The Hamilton, also an apartment building, on Third avenue, and on part of the ground once know as Hamilton Square, represents an outlay of $340,000. Severel other large flats are going up at a cost of $100,000 to $200,000. It is not necessary to speak again of the Vanderbilt buildings, which have been described sever _al times. In the same neighborhood with them work has already been be gun for an apartment house to be called Kemp's hotel, and which wttl cost $350, 000. Ogden Goelet's new mansion on the avenue is nearly finished. Its cost will be about $400,600.' Half a dozen other stylish residences, varying in cost from $100,00C to $300,000, are going np between the Windsor hotel and the Lenox library. The most costly of the new structures down town will be the Mills' building on Broat) street, which will represent at least $3,000, 000. The new Produce Exchange at Bow ling Green will cost altogether about $2,000,. 000. Near by a Boston man is putting up an office building on which the outlay, not counting the cost of land, will be $500,000 Cyras W. Field intends to invest about the same amount in his new building on the _*• *be Washington hotel. Eugene Kelly building on Beekstreet, just back of the new quarters which Jay Gould is putting up for the World, will not be fin ished for less than $750,000. Anew build ing that Orlando B. Bolton is putting up at Astor place and Broadway will cost $250, 000. It is calculated that the total cost of the new buildings this year between the battery and Harlem river will be about $35,000,000. HOUSE AND FARM. Wool Notes for Farmers. Tho Ameriom Cultivator, in tho course of an article upon wool interests, says that the value of a lot of wool depends largely upon tho proportion of yearling fleeces therein, and so a proportion of tho oldest lives should be fatted and sold each year. The value of Settees in the same flock varies much, even when tho utmost care and skill are devoted to the development of uniformity. In England the fleeces are sorted into those from yearlings, those from weathers and those from ewes. The wool that will make tho greatest num ber of yards to the pound, is of the great est market value. Firm felting-eljth is much less used now than formerly, tho most popular goods being of hard and twisted goods. The desired "curl" in the staple is determined by the scales of serra tion upon the surface of the fiber, as seen by any good microscope. The question of of raising sheep profitably for mutton in terests concerns many farmers who live near to good markets. But much depends upon the quality of tho sheep raised. The feeling that "anything is good enough for mutton" has not yet entirely disappeared. It is not every farmer who abides by the distinction between wool-sheep and mut ton-sheep. The good qualities of tho Cotswolds are undoubted but they need care and choice pastures. A first cross of the Southdowns upon common sheep suits the market. The black face and legs pe culiar to this breed render it noticeable in market, if butchers, as they should, leave the lower part of the legs undressed. How to Cure Hams. There are two ways of curing bacon—by the dry, or the pickling process. The former is the most trouble, but does away with the necessity of a barrel. Tha bacon should be weighed out into lots of 100 pounds, and six pounds of salt, one ounce of saltpetre and two quarts molasses should be set apart as the quantity required for curing it. If it is to be pickled, after the ingredients are thoroughy mixed a small quantity should be sprinkled on the bottom of the barrel,anda layer of meat placed upon it more of the mixture should be sprinkled this, to be followd by another course of meat until the whole is firmly and snugly oacked, when well-water enough should be ut in to cover it. After remaining for six weeks, the meat should be taken out and smoked, and then each piece sewed up in muslin bag and hungup in a dry place, or it' it is designed to keep the bacon for a considerable length of time, it may be packed in dry salt and the barrel headed up. To cure by the dry process the meat should be spread upon the table, and the mixture rubbed in on the flesh side, with as much adhering to the meat as possible, after which it should be piled up snugly with the flesh side up and allowed to remain in this condition for three days, when it should again be rubbed and piled up as before. This process should be followed up until the whole amount of the mixture set apart from the curing is exhausted. After re maining in the pile until the salt is ab sorbed—which may be known by the ap pearance of the meat—it may be smoked and treated as mentioned above. The above recipe is intended for light bacon heavy bacon will require a pound or more of salt per 100 pounds of meat, and a longer time for the salt to be absorbed when cured in the dry state.—[F. D. Curtis. Beauties of the Hi Vine. Of the decorative possibilities of the hop vine. The Michigan Farmer speaks thus pleasantly: "Whoever has seen a wild hop vine making its way in the world to the very tip top of a slender sapling, running riot over a dilapidated rail fence, or hang ing its graeef ul garlands of drooping, pale green bells over the naked limbs of some prostrate woodland giant, exemplifying how nature strives cover with loveliness the decay she herself causes, will recognize its decorati1 possibilities. There are no gay flowers, no odor save that of cleanli ness, to attract the senses. The eye alone is pleased by the graceful abandon of the luxuriant vine, and the contrast of light green panicles and the deeper hue of foli age. Once started they live on indefinitely, dying down in autumn to send up pale, slender shoots inthe spring. With all their coquetry there is an humble about them, as if they were conscious of the ienoble uses to which they were born, and they appear to best advantage over the woodshed door, climbing against the kitchen window, or cherishing the top of the well house in a loving embrace. They give an excellent effect, however, when planted with other climbers, the blending of foliage being agreeable and the wreaths of pendant, nod ding blossoms, yellowed with golden grains of lupultn, not suffering in grace or beauty by contrast with even the beautiful clema tis." A Mother's Experience. "I shall be obliged to kill my children or go to housekeeping," was the somewhat surprising assertion made* by a young mother the other day. She is a delicate woman who, wishing to be relieved of the cares of housekeeping for a year or two, decided to board for that length of time. "My children are good children in the main, she continued, "obedient, not de structive, and do not disturb things that do not belong to us, but being children and not little old men and women they are as unwelcome as a frost in Jnne, in the house where we pay a large sum for their board." This mother'3 experience is by no means an uncommon one and about the only way by which a sensitive woman can make life bearable under the circumstances is to cul tivate a'stoical indifference, after she has provided as many legitimate outlets for her children's vitality as she possibly can. If she iB conscientious, and her children are wisely restricted, she can af ford to be indifferent, and may even find a s-ort of philosophical content in contem plating the members of a certain class of people who never were children. Fariniiie Notes. Over one hundred farms in Orange coun ty, New York, are advertised for sale by New burg real estate agent. The reasons given are that the land is played out, an". that the farmers are desirous to try tht. west. The severe drought which prevailed over the greater part of the northern and west ern states has interfered in the prepara tion of land for sowing winter grain in fact, on the hard, clayey soils it has been impossible to plough or fit them for the reception of seed. Mr. A. P. Bennet, Linneus, Me., forces water by horse-power into each crib of his sixty cattle. Six factories, the Utioa Herald ays, are working up the amber cane successfully ^rown this season on 150 acres in tho town of Bush, N. Y. A Wisconsin dairyman, Christian Kroe ger by name, paid $70 damages the other day rather than stand a suit at law for skim ming milk taken to the cheese factory. A correspondent of the Rural New Yorker states that Elkanah Watson, a mer chant of Albany. New York, was the real author of the present system of fairs and cattle shows sustained and directed by agri cultural societies, and the first one was held under his direction at Pittsfield, Mass.. where he had a farm, in 1810. This was such a success that Watson soon after pro ceeded to organize agricultural societies and establish fairs and cattle shows in other places, and now in every state of tho union there are more or less of them, and many are supported in part by legislative aid. Many persons let their poultry roost on trees during the summer months. This is well, if care is taken to get the birds se curely housed before severe weather sets in. If they are allowed to remain out-doors amidst frost, sleet, snow, cold rains, and howling, bitter winds, they will kutter greatly their combs and wattles will freeie and many will sicken and die om exposure. There should be a good supply of gravel, shells, road dust, etc., put away as "poultry supplies," to bo used during the time that fowls have to be confined to close quarters. Poultry, like .ther live stock, pays if properly cared for. Both profit and humanity demand of us good care for our fowls as of all other stock. Recipe Department.

Hove you, love, I love you, love, But O you must have money A red rose is a rose, my love, But if it holds not honey, The busy bee he will not stay, But humming airs he hies away. My darling, mv darling. To find arose with honey! My darling, my darling, My darling, have you money? An Iowa father has spent the best part of a year, $700 in money, and made fon. trips to Washington to secure his son a $900 clerkship in one of the department-. The boy must be an unbearable nuisince around home. Ono of the curious results of the late president's death was the number of other deaths directly ascribed to it. One prom inent western banker dropped dead on hear, ing of it the shock gave a man in Massa chusetts a stroke of apoplexy, from whici he is not expected to recover, and a wealth" grain dealer from Altamont,Illinois, becarre demented, and committed suicide. It d. not appear that any of these persons were intimately connected with Mr. Garfield social or political ties. Much interest is felt in the success of the new steamship, City of Borne, which sails to New York October 13. With the usuel heated bearings to spoil the test of the trial the vessel made 15 3-4 miles per hour. The Inmans have lavished an enormous amount on this vessel, and all concerned in steam navigation are watching the experiment with interest. She is built to carry 2,900 cabin and steerage passengers. Tho en gines of the steamer can be brought to a dead stop in two seconds bv turning a sin gle lever, and from going full speed ahead they can be reversed to full speed astern in the incredible space of five seoonds. The way the money of people goes is il lustrated, on a small scale, by the recent sale of government buildings at Camp How ard, Idaho. They cost about $15,000, ac cording to a Pacific ooast newspaper, and were sold for $65. This price does not seem to have been fixed by collusion, as the same authority says that "the man who bought cannot realize, unless he establishes a military camp or uses them for firewood." The government is generally sure to pay a great deal for what it builds, and to get very little for what it sells. The Brahmin, says Dr. Scudder, has intellectually no superior. No man can mingle much with them and not have bis wits sharpened. They are the learned men of the country. The Sanscrit, "queen of languages," is their native tongue, and its vast literature has been their grand field of mental training. The Brahmin is almost white, wonderfully neat, begins every day in the water tank, eats no animal food, be lieving that if he does he shall pass through as many transmigrations after death as there are hairs on the animal of which he eats. Physically, these people ore of splendid form, majestic heads, and carry themselves grandly. According to The London World, the first cause of the animosities between regi ments has always been difficult to trace but the "bad blood" circulates through genera tion after generation of recruits. There are two distinguished corps in her majesty's service whose men never lose an opportunity of pummeling each other when an opportu nity offers itself, and the only reason whioh can be assigned for this is a tradition that some officers of the one had been insulted by an officer of the other at the siege of Quebec. The French Republic has not abolished titles of nobility, but the government during the last two years has given them as little official recognition as possible. They have been eliminated from the army and navy lists, and the term "Monseignenr" wi not officially applied to bishops. TloK p or of the Seals, too, no longer smicii ed ranmission of titles through heiresses, as it used often to bo dooo of old. Now, however, the Journal Official describes all the Cabinet Ministers as "Their Excellen oi s," a title whioh has been dropped since 1870, and tho inference is drawn that a more conservative and loss of on iconoclas tic policy is to be pursued. The market reports say that money is easy. We have nothing to do with getting up tho market reports. THE EX-KHCMTE*8 HAREM. Tutting the Palaee ot the Favorites, where It Is Now Established. The Novelle Revue publishes an intent ing account of a visit by Mmo. Delia-Bocca to the palace of the favorites, near Naples, whtfe tho harem of the ex-khedive of Egypt is at present lodged. "Between Naples and Castellanare," says the writer, "at a little distance from the ancient Herculianeum. now called Resina, one may perceive a great palace very simple its architecture and painted red, together with numerous out buildings that surround it. That is the pal ace of the Favorita. That name was given to it by Mary Carolina, queen of Naples, wife of Ferdinand IV., and sister of Marie Antoinette. This voluptions queen, with her very dear friend Lady Hamilton, took np her residence in the palace of the Favor ita and gave a series of splendid fetes, balls, concerts and comedies, with more friendly entertainments for those who were in the circle of royal favor. The spectacle from the windows of the palace is incom parable. Capri, Sorento, and Cape Mycenae are mirrored in the blue and limp id sea. Vesuvius may be seen and some times heard, but the life of the palace is no longer what it was. Instead of the aristocrat ic dames and cavaliers and the elegant court that once peopled these gardens, now only a figure in white appears from time to time in the deserted wains. Is it a phantom? No it is one of the Egyptian princesses ora slave taking a walk. For two years past the chateau has been the dwelling of Ismael Pasha, ex-khedive ef Egypt. He lives at Resina, as at Cairo, with his wives, his children and a numerous suite, observing abroad the usages of his country and his faitb. A European is rarely admitted to visit the princess, but having requested this honor I obtained it for a certain day, and was told to call. I drove through the entrance-gate and drew up before a large and elevated iron railing opening on a stair way. Opposite to this was the private entry of the khedive. Two small domes tics wearing the tarbouch were waiting for me on either side of the railing gate was opened by a kind of giant, and was locked behind me as I walked in. The creature without speaking a word, made me an Ori ental salute and gave me a sign to follow him. The habitation of the women is in the second story. There I was received by another personage, big, black and fat. He opened the door, and, lifting a heavy screen like those in use in Italian churches, led the way into a gallery or corridor from which apened a great number of doors just as in a convent. These were the rooms of the wo men. Nea one of these doors there were fourteen slaves ranged in a row, who bowed to the ground as I appeared. This was the apartment of Mile. Ott, a Swiss lady who acts as interpreter to the Princess Tchech mi-Afet. Mile. Ott conducted me up to another corridor with a glass roof, to the apartment of her highness. Her highness received me standing, with her adop ted child, the Princes Talka, daughter of the khedive, by her'side. Be hind her stood her reader, a beautiful Cir cassian with dark eyes and an ivory skin. Tchechmi-Afet is a woman of imposing as- Sered Joaquin Miller. Things in General. Six months ago there was not a house at Glendive. Montana now there are 1,500. The Northern Pacific Railroad was opened to that point in July. In the new ceme tery there are nine graves, including five of men killed in fights and two of female outcasts who committed suicide. A Methodist Episcopal preacher in Pueblo, Col., adopted the original exped ent, a few Sundays ago, of having the choir sing the morning hymn from the steps in front of the church to attract a congrega tion. It is said that the existing deficiencies in the household goods at the White House were caused by the|expend tu of $3,000 of the last year's appropriation under the Hayes administration for a remarxable set of dinner china, modeled, painted, ad gilded in bad taste. The makers also had the privilege of duplicating the set twenty five times minus the national coast-of-armV. iect, with the bearing of a queen. She of me her hand and invited me to take a seat by her Bide. Mile Ott made a little speech to thank me in the name of the Eaving rincess for having thought of her and for given myself the trouble to come to see he*. Tchechmi-Afet does not speak French, but she understands all that is said to her in that language. Sometimes she takes courage, and when we are alone (I go there very often now) she replies to me in French. Tchechmi-Afet seems to be a favorite, for she alone receives visitors. She is always very elegantly dressed in Parisian toilets from Worth's. The princess wears neither rings nor bracelets, though I am assured that each princess has several millions' worth of pearls and dia monds. The princess Talka is 20 years old. a delicate and graceful creature, with beautiful blonde hair. She speaks French well, and talks with naivete and without embarrassment. At the end of a quarter on hour seven slaves came in and ranged themselves in military fashion. The one in the middle carried a large tray, upon which were the little Turkish goblets con taining coffee, the other slaves carried the things taken with the coffee. After the coffee they brought cigareties, which were exquisit in spite of their mildness. I sup pose they contained a little opium. Tch echni-Afet sees all the illustrated papers, and what she does not understand in them she asks to have explained to her. One day I talked to her about her existence in the harem, aud asked her if.she did not find this perpetual seclusion wearisome. "Should you not like to see Naples and the neighborhood?" I said "does not this confinement weigh on your •jpirits?" "Oh, no," she replied. I am ac customed to a sedentary life, and I could not live otherwise unless I were in my own country. The very thought of going out without a veil i" revolting to me. Besides it seems to me that abroad one seems much more shamefaced than in one's own coun try. These sentiments are rather inex plicable, for this same princess has given me her photopraph, allows me to show it to my friends, and even asks me if I think she is prettier than that. I asked her if it did not make her suffer to see the khedive of fer attentions to other princesses. She re plied with a smile: "Yon get used to it. I admit that sometimes it annoys me. When a new princess comes among us we at first treat her like an intruder, but as soon as she is married we consider her as a sister, and try to live on good terms with her." Everything passes in strict silence at the Favorita. No noise troubles the harem. They speak by signs there they salute by carrying the hand to the brow. a— WHO PUNCHES TH E COINS? The Amounts Realized From the Boring Process. From the New York Evening Post A reporter asked James N. Sampson, the veteran detective employed at the sub treasury, to what the government detectives attributed the sudden increase in the num ber of clipped and punched coins, which has attracted so much attention of late. Mr. Sampson said that it was perfectly well known that nine-tenths of the punching was done in this city by Cubans. A num ber of silver coins were clamped together in 3 roll, and in less time than it takes to write an account of it, a hole is drilled through the whole lot. The value of the silver obtained by punching a hole of usual size in a coin amounts to about one twenty-fifth of the value of the coin BO that for every roll of twenty-five quarter dollars is obtained in a moment by running a drill through the roll. Mr. Sampson says, also, that many of the purchased coin come from Mexico and South America where our silver coins circulate freely, and rarely escape mutilation. Several attempts has been made of late years to break up the systematic punching of coins, but with little success. Only two convictions for the offense have been made in ten years. Mr. Sampson remarked that while the bus iness of punching and filing coins was al most wholly in the hands of the Cubans, the business of sweating gold coins by sha king them up in a buckskin bag is attribut ed by the detectives to the denizens of Chatham street. By shaking a bog contain ing 100 eagles for three hours, the result in gold dust will be worth about $20. Mr. Floyd, the chief clerk ef the assay office. said that the government rules relating to light weight gold coins were defective, and tended to keep such coins in circu lation. When gold coin less than twenty years old is abraded to more than one-half per cent, of its value, it is stamped with an "L" at the Sub-Treasury and returned to whoever offers it, instead of being sent to the mint. The object is to force the hold er to take it to the assay office or mint to be sold at its real value, instead of which it goes into circulation again. The trouble is that congress has never made any provis ion for redeeming mutilated or even abrad ed coin.

One your ago this spring he was so afflicted that he could not stand upon his feet from pain and weakness. He saw Kidney-Wort advertised in the news papers and thought be would try it As soon as he commenced using this sure and valuable remedy he experienced immediate re lief and at once began to grow strong and was relieved of all pain and unpleasantness. He said: 'After using two packages of the dry form, I was gong away to be engaged at Stor m's Glen Island iu Long Island Sound for the oeaeon and I purchased one dozen packages of Kidney-Wort, fearing I could not find it so eadily where I was going as I could in Prov iderce- "It was a fortunate circumstance for some who were employed by me at that well known resort,that I brought my Kidney-Wort with me for when any of them were ailing anl suffering from pains proceeding from the kidneys, I used to steep np a dose of Kidney-Wort for them and after a few da?s use they would im prove."

A Much Respected Citizen and well-to do Fanner ot West Bath, Me., testifies—His Honse was Gloomy with Forebodings of Death —Cured after Thirty Years Suffering. WEST BATH, ME., June 10, 1881. EDITOR BOSTON JOURNAL: You have been print! facts about a good thing and I will cheerfully tell my story. I have been a sufferer from kidney troubles for about thirty years and have had frequent acute at tacks which rendered me unfit for labor of any kind. I tried many doctors both regular and specialists, but without any success. I also tried all the most prominent remedies I could hear of, all to no avail Last fall I was comoletly prostrated, and had excruciating pains, and my house was gloomy with the forebodings of death. The attending physician gave me up and I was not expected to recover. Some friends of onr family came in one day and said that they had found what might prove a blessing in disguise and on hearing their story, what Kidney-Wort had done for others, I was induced to try it, as a last resort. It was done without the least par ticle of faith, as I considered mv case entirely hopeless. A package was procured at Fare's drug store, and a lot steeped up and the first dose helped me considerably, so that I took new hope, and, it seems almost a miracle to say it, six more doses brought me to my feet and it lias entire cured me, and I have had no trouble since that time! To say that there was great joy in that household is to but partially tell the facts. Two acquaintances were suffering with the same troubles, nearly, but not quite so bad as I had been. I recommended it to them, and, seeing what it had done for me they used it with the same result. All pain and trouble was banished, three persons being cured by that greatest of known kidney reme dies, Kidney-Wort I write this for the benefit of the afflicted, and who can wonder at my willingness when it enred me after thirty years suffering. I am now able to attend to my regular farm work." Yours Truly, ELBKIDGE MALCOLM. Clipped at Random.

We admire the philosophy of the unfortunate nan, who, when everything had been swept away, said, "Well, there'll be weather and taxes left, at any rate." Alas! weather is the yellow dog" of all subjects everyone thinks it his special right to try to better the weather, and hurls his anathemas against" Old Probabilities," and all who endeavor to assist him in regulating the weather. The following communication Is from Prof. Tice, of St. Louis, Mo., the renowned meteorologist and weather prophet of the West. It does not discuss the weather bnt something surely of more importance to those who suffer with that painful malady he speaks of: "The day after concluding my lectures at Burlington, Iowa, on the 21st of December last, I was seized with a sudden attack of neuralgia in the chest. giving me excruciating pain and almost prevent ing breathing. My pulse, usually 80, fell to 25 intense nausea of the stomach succeeded, and a cold, clammy sweat covered my entire body. The attending physician could do nothing to re lieve me. After suffering for three hours, I thought—as I had been using ST. JACOBS OIL with food effect p»r rheumatic pains—I would try it. saturated a piece of flannel, large enough to cover my chest, with the Oil, and applied it. The relief was almost instantaneous. In one hour I was entirely free from pain, and would have taken the train to fill an appointment that night in a neighboring town had my friends not dis suaded me.
