The Missouri editors in their late Con

the same right to walk into a grocery store
and order a hand of sugar, or a sack ol
ccffee, or into a law office and demand a
legal opinion from its occupant, or into an
undertaker’s and request a coffin, without
expecting to pay for their respective wares
or services, as into a newspaper office and
demand the use of its brains and muscle

PHYSICAL STATISTICS.
Suinv interesting facts are gathered firm
the forthcoming report of the medical
brunch of P e Provost Marshal's Hureau,
regarding the Comparative physical condi
tion of the various nationalities represented
in America. These facts are derived from
the medical inspection of 605.000 men who
were drafted and examined during the late
war. Fifty different nationalities wore
represented, and the ratio of unfitness was
275 in every 1,000. The negroes botn in
America stood the best ; the Canadians
can c next, and the Scandinavians next. —
A larger proportion ot the Irish and Ger
mans were physically incapacitated for mil
itary service than any other class.
The native Americans were the tallest,
averaging 5 feet 7J inches. The Canadi
ans was the shortest, averaging 5 feet 51
inches. The Germans were the largest
n easurment about the chest, the average
being 32,50 The most prevailing disease
among the American disqualifying them
to service was found to he dyspepsia, sixty
in every thousand between the ages of 18
at.d 15 being found unfitted for military
service by reason of this disease. People
following open air occupations were found
generally better fitted for soldiers than in
door workmen.
At a party, tTuith the funny man pick
ed from the floor some false hair, and hold
ing it alcJr. wickedly asked who had lost
it. Impulsively the hand of every lady
within ear-shot went to her back hair. It
was cruel to throw them oft" their guard
and expose them so, but Smith says it
wasn't his fault.
It is a pleasant subject for contemplation
that the army of a people who are sending
ius immigrants at the rate of-1,000 per
i month, recently captured a town and pul
30,0110 men, women and children to the
sword. A mild ma.iered. meek and offen
sive fellow-being is John Chinaman.—
: Chronicle.
Some of the papers are abusing railroads
because a man over in Nevada can haul
his hay and oats with his own teams cheap,
er than the railroads Will do the work.—
The next ihit g wo expect to hear is the
abuse of railroad monopolies because they
will not board men as cheap as they can
board the in selves.

That Favorite Heme Remedy,
PAIN-KILLER,
Has been before the public over thirty years, and
probably has a wider and better reputation than
any other proprietary medicine of the present day.
At this period there an* but few unacquainted with
the merits of the Pain-Killer ; but. while some ex
tol it as a liniment, they know but little ol its pow
er in easing pain when taken internally ; while
others use it internally with great success, but are
e (daily ignorant of itjj healing virtues when ;p
-plied externally. Wo therefore wish to say to all,
that it is equally successful, whether used internal
ly or externa ly. It is sufficient evidence of its
virtues as a standard medicine to know that it is
now used in ail parts of the world, and that its su e
is constantly increasing No curative agent has
had such a wide spread sale or given such univer
sal satisfaction.
Davis* Pain-Killer is a purely vegetable com
pound. prepared from the best and purest materi
als, and with a care that insures the most perfect
uniformity in the medici: e ; and while it is a most
effective remedy for pain. 11 is » perfectly sale med
icine, cv»*n in the most unskilful hands.
It is eminently a Family Medicine ; and by be
ing kept ready for immediate resort, will save
many an hour of suffering, and many a dollar in
time and doctor’s bills.
After over thirty years trial, it is sttil receiving
the most unqualified testimonials to its virtues,
Irom persons of the highest character and responsi
bility. Eminent Physicans commend it us a most
effectual preparation for the extinction of pain. It
is not only the best -einedy ever known for Bruises,
ts. Cuts, Burns. Ac., but for Dysentery, or Cholera.
| or any sort of bowel complaint, it is a remedy un
surpassed for efficiency, and rapidity of action.—
In the great "*itics of India, and other hot climates,
it has become the standard medicine for all such
' complaints, as well as for Dyspepsia, Liver Com
plaints. and all other kindre I disorders. For
Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma, and Kheumat
ic difficulties, it has bten proved by the most
abundant and convincing testimony to be an in
valuable medicine.
We would caution the public against all imita
tions of our preparation, either in name, or style of
putting up.

Compound Extract ot Eucalyptus is a preparation
combining all the valuable medicinal properties of
the Eucalyptus, and is acknowledged by grateful
thousand-to he the best r. medy ever offered to *hc
public for the cure of all diseases of the Kidneys,
Bladder and Urinary Canal, and Seminal Weakness,
as it seems to have a direct affinity for thc«e organs
and their surroundings, and cures them by its
alternative healing and balsamic properties more
effectually than any other known remedy.
EUCALYPTUS
It is also an invaluable remedy for all diseases
of the mucous and serous membranes, such as
Bn nchitis. Hacking Cough. Na'isea during Preg
nancy, Dyspepsia. Leucorrboc-a. Etc.
This preparation is the result of Dr Coleman’s
experiments with the medicinal properties of the
tree in tne U. S. Marino Hospital in San Francis
co, in 1»71 and 1872, where he bad unusual facili
ties for testing the various
methods of preparing the reme
dy. and its uses. It can be rc
lied upon os certain to give the
promised results,a* d hundred*
of te-Hmonials of its efficacy
ran he seen nt his office, 105
Kearny St., San Francisco.
Coleman’s Double Extract of Eucalyptus is a
powerful, yet harmless, febrifuge, and is a special
preparatiod for the treatment of the malarious fe
vers of our interior valleys, and is warranted to
cure an v cases of Fever and Ague tieated with it
according to directions, while the baneful results
of the use of the usual Quinine and arsenical reme
dies for those diseases arc entirely avoided.
Beware of imitations, and take none but Cole

when moderately taken have a beneficial and
healthful effect upon tbe whole system.
