Thousands Hastened to their Graves! KeiyiugOD tustimonials written in viviil glowing ltmguagu or somu tuiniculous curua uinJe by soinu largely purled up due tor or ptiteut medicine has hastened thous ands to their grves; believing in their al-inoi-t insaue taith tbat the same miracle will be performed on them, and that these testimonials m ike the cures, while the so called mcdiciue is all the time hasteuing them to their graves. We have avoided publishing testimonial, as they do not make the cures, although we have THOUSANDS ll'ON THOUSANDS of them, one of the most wonderful cures, voluntarily Bent us. It is our medicine, Hop Hitters that makes the cures. It has never failed aud never can. We will yive reference to any tor any disease similar to their own if desired, or will refer to any neighborhood in the known world but can show its cures by Hop Litters. A LOSING JOKE. A prominent physician of Tittsburg eaid to a lady patieut who was complainino "t her continued ill health, and of his inabili ty to cure her, jokingly said: "Try Hop Bitters!" The lady took it in earnest and Ur-ed the Bitters, from which she obtained permanent health. She now laughs at the doctor for his joke, but he is not so well pleased with it, as it cost him a good pa tient. FEE9 OF I) CTOItS. The ieos of doctors is an item that very many persons are interested in. We be lieve the schedule for visits is $..00, which would tax a mati con fin d to his bed for a year, and in need of a daily visit, over $1,000 a year for medical attendant! alone! And one bottle of Hop Bitters taken in time would save the $ 1,000 and all the year's sickness. A LADY'S WI31I. "Oh, how I do wish my skin was as clear and soft ns yours," said a lady to her friend. "You cait easily make it so," answered the friend. "How" inquired the lirst lady. "By using Hop Bitteis that make tiure, rich blood and blooming health. It did for mo as you observe." GIVEN CI 1JY THE DOCTORS. "Is it possible that Mr. Godfrey is up and at work, and cured by bo simple, a remedy?" "I assuro you it is true that ho is entirely cured, and with nothing but Hop Eitters, and only ten days ngo his doctors gave him up and siid ho must die, from Kidney and , Liver trouble I" The Daily Bulletin. ECONOMY Vtf. TKEET-LAMP& In th'jie dull times the public general ly au I the hungry newspaper reporters es pecially iniy be pardoned fur looking for ward with impatience to the next Council meeting at which there will bo considered m itteis of importance to the public. And, it we may jti Igo the future by the past, wo may conii lently expect that the con sideration of thtie matters will afford much amusement to the audience present. Aside from the nomination ot the city pu1 ice force fur the present fiscal year, theie will be another nutter of more than ordinary iatertat brought up fcr con sideration, which will agiin alLrd an op portunity for brief discourses upon the "d mucial on li'ion of the city" uud the en forcement of extreme economy in the man agement of tht! city affiirs generally. This matter will be a promised resolution of Al derman Woodward, favoring a cessation of woik on the Mis-iissippi Leveo and the re duction of the number of street lamps to abUt one-half tiieir present number. It will b'j sevcrtl weeks yet before the Coun cil meets again, and it is probable that, by that time the work on the levee will bo nearly finished; ao that the first part of the proposed ns ilu'ion nny bo withheld. But the gas lamps are nut likely to be reduced to the desired numbe', in the meantime, and with r- fer-.Ece to them a resolution would, there! jn , not be entirely irrelevant. It is commonly understood that the gas lamps are a difficult tubject to legislate upon. Oas in the streets is a public necessity, not in t'ortions, but everywhere in the city. We were in darkness for soma time not , long sine, and it was only in com pliance With a pressure from the whole community, a dem ind thutcati.e from every qua ter of tiie city, ind that the Council did not dare longer to resist, that street lamp were Hiraiu established and the darkut-es dirpciled. But Mr. Woodward does not propose to extingui ,h all the lamps. He would have the number reduce-! only by about one-half in the inter est of economy alone. It may be said that Mr. Wood war I will meet with thesune difficulty in this effort that he met with when he proposed sotne jear3 ago at meeting held in OKI Reform II -tl i, that a cro?s levee should be built somewhere down town. Mr. Woodward suggested that it be built oil Tenth S'reet, from levee t) levee. But this was objected to by a (;entlenihn who owned valuable prop erty above Tenth Street, which he desired enclosed by the proposed cross levee, and ho wanted it built on Twelfth Street. But this was obiected to in turn by an owner of nronertv above Twelfth Street, who 4 wanted the levee built on Fourteenth Street; another objection came from a prop erty owner abjvo Fourteenth Street, who objected to being taxed for a levee that would exclude his property, and he wanted tiie cross kvee built on Twentieth Street and so on until it was finally insisted upon that the cross levee should be built on Thirty-eighth so as to include the Singer Works, and there the project fell through. It may besaol, we repeat, that Air. Wood ward will meet with this same difficulty in his proposition t reduce the number of street lamps; that the people of no por tion of the city, of no street or cipiare where lamps are now burniug during d irk nights, will consent to have thu lamps in their immediate neighborhoods discon tinued and yet be willing to pay taxes in order that other portions of the city may be lighted. It would seem to one who per haps judged human nature superficially, that it would be difficult to find any con siderable number of men so thoroughly imbued with a spirit, either of extreme generosity or of excessive peuuriousness, that they would cheerfully sacrifice their share ot the comforts provided at common expense. But, nevertheless, we will ven ture the entirely reasonable prediction, that Alderman Woodward sees his way clear; that, before he so positively announced his letermiuation to accomplish the obj. ct in dicated, he considered every contingency that might oppose him. His determination to economize in the matter of street lamps is undoubtedly the outgrowth of an express ed popular sentiment among his own im mediate constituents; and we shall con fidently expect, that when ho offers his resolution at the next regular meeting of the Council, requiring the discontinuance of half the street lamps in the city, he will present also a petition, headed by himself and signed by all the voters of his ward in front or near w hose residences or places of business street lamps are kept, burning at niuht, asking the Council that sucli lamps 1)0 discontinued, in the interest of public economy. We feci sure that Mr. W. and his constituents would not be so un reasonable as to attempt to enforce econo my in tho nutter of street lamps, only in so far as other parts of the city are con cerned, but that they will be perfectly willing to set a good example before their fellow-citizens, to the end that all may, in time, be educate i up to their frugal ideas. But we anticipate some strong opposition in tho Council at first: and hence- we look forward to tho next Council meeting with mud) interest and impatience. raralysis Sine Years.

Tho Coming American Novelist. Tho coming novelist of American lifo will bo a satirist, and will nearly re soutblo Thackeray iu his motives, if not iu his methods. This much it is safe to predict: First, because an author could not bo charactoristically American without a largo shnro of humor in his composition; and second, because Am ericau life offers yearly more provoca tions to satire. Not that our pcoplo havo not honor, candor, earnestness, tenderness, and hosts of good quali tios for serious and sympathetic treat ment, but because au analysis of our politics and our society will discover so many tempting points of ridicule uud attack, yet these withal, so inno cent aud ingenuous that bitterness and scorn will seem hardly called for. Tho coming novelist must bo a satirist In deed, so rich aro tho materials at hand, that with only enough raco sensitive ness ho will produce tho best novel of the day. And we need tho American novel. Wo want somebody to "show us up." Wo are getting so degenerate as wo grow older, setting up so many falso Gods, falling into such absurd habits, nay, convicting ourselves of so much dishonesty, hypocrisy, indifference, meanness, snobbishness; showing our selves, in short, so wanting in tho stur dy, downright manliness and self-respect beiiticuthed us by our fathers and inculcated iu their works, that wo sad ly need tho corrective lash. And of all goads to Americans, ridieulo stings most. Let us havo some one then to laugh at us from among ourselves. Wo won't love him, perhaps but wo will admire and read him. N. Y. Star. IVnsces. Happiness is the best sedative for violent passions. Thoro aro so few real pleasures in this life that it seems liko a theft to re fuse anything to childhood that can give it enjoyment. No person ought to make a living by religion. Ono person cannot act relig ion lor another; every person must act for himself. Never try to convince a woman by reason, but by emotious. Tho beautiful is that which gives tho most ideas iu the shortest time. Chimneys aro not swept until tho fires are out. When tho passions aro extinguished man purities his heart. Wo meet iu society many beautiful and attractive women whom wo think would make excellent wives for our friends. We have tho liberty of our move ments but not tho liberty of our thoughts, which como and go at their will and not ours, imposing themselves upon our mind us tho circulation of our blood imposes itself upon our body. Bad courses aro almost tho only ones that succeed, because they aro tho only ones that please. Hopo lives by what it desires and dies by what it obtains. llopo consoles for every loss; noth ing consoles us for tho loss of hopo. To guard ourselves against foolish anguish ami extreme deceptions wo should always take tho average of our fears and hopes, for wo never experi ence as much misfortune as wo fear nor as much happiness as we hopo. Virtue is practiced with modesty and hypocrisy with humility. Translated lj Bodjti Courier. m m Ten years ngo Mr. Gladstone wrote: "At the ago of sixty-five, and after forty-two years of a laborious public lifo, 1 think myself entitled to retiro on tho present opportunity. This retirement is dictated to mo by my personal views as to tho best method of spond ing tho closing years of life." Ten years later Mr. Gladstone is still in active service, from which it would seem that his views as to tho best methods of spending tho closing years of his lifo havo undergone ns radical a eliango as tho views of tho Premier on almost everything else.

"Women aro a necessary evil," he said, bringing dowu his fist hard on the counter to emphasize tho bean less remark. It was in the village store at West Milton, Sarato ga County, and the speaker was the central figure ot a group of bucholic philosophers. Ho was homely, slovenly aud sixty. "There's where I differ from you alto gether," said Mr. George T. Graham, of the same place. "Women are mostly what men make 'em. When husbands are brutes wives will fall iuto submission or make homo hot for the men; and they're unnatur al in either character. Love them, and es pecially bo good to them when they're sick, aud you'll have no trouble. There's my own wife, now. She's suffered a good deal with dyspepsia, nervous prostration and other ailments that took tho bloom off her cheeks aud the spring out of her steps. Well, she saw an advertisement of Park eh's Tonic, and thought it would be just the thing for her case. Gentlemen, I sent rivo miles after a bottle. She took it. I sent again after moro. So several times. Trouble? Why, If you could see how much good it has done her you would say that women aro the greatest ot God s blessings, and Paukeh's Tonic is the next." This preparation, which has been known as Paukeh's Ginger Tonic, will hereaftor bo called simply Parker's Toxic. This change has been rendered necessary by sub- strutes imposed upon their customers by unprincipled dealers, under the name of ginger; and as ginger is really an unimport ant flavoring ingredient, we drop tho mis leading won!. There is no change, however, in the prep aration itself, and all bottles remaining in tho hands of dealers, wrapped under the name of Parker's Ginobb Tonic contain tho gonuinn medicine if the fc simile sig nature of Hiscox & Co. Is st tho bottom of the outside wrapper.
