Badly Demoralized.
The Graphic is doing its patrio
tic duty to its country, but all the
same it is in a demoralized condi
tion at present. By the departure
of the Jefferson Fencibles for Little
Rock, thence to be transferred to
wherever ordered by the govern
ment, the Graphic loses three mem
bers of its force, Mr. Geo. S.
Valliant, city editor; Mr. George H.
Adams, accountant and collector,
and Mr. A. G. Hurd, printer and
pressman.
In consequence of the departure
of Mr. Valliant, the duties of city
editor and reporter devolve upon
Mr. J. W. Adams in addition to his
■other duties as editor and business
manager. We have employed
Mr. Meyer Solmsou to assist in the
capacity of reporter aud news
gatherer, and we earnestly request
our friends and the public generally
to give him such items as they may
shave knowledge of.
o e also iuvite our Iriends to tele
phone local and personal news, and

Hood’s Sarsaparilla Makes a Cure—

“Sciatic rheumatism kept me in bed

me any good, but I finally wore out the
disease sufficiently to hobble around. I
W'as greatly emaciated and one of my
limbs was drawn and cramped. It oc
curred to me that what I really needed
was to get my blood pure. I went to the
drug store and called for the best blood
medicine. I was given a bottle of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. I began taking it and in a
short time I was au well as ever. I now
weigh more than I ever did before; I have
a good appetite and am feeling well.”

OUR CHOICE
For Sheriff,
EDGAR BREWSTER.
Main-age For Women In Ireland.
Another great gain has been made
for woman suffrage in the passage of
the Irish local self government bill by
the parliament of Great Britain. Mu
nicipal woman suffrage, conferred on
Englishwomen in 1869, proved so satis
factory that it was extended to the
women of Scotland in 1881. Now, after
the experience of a generation (29 years),
it is extended to the women of Ireland
also. Under the new bill single women
and widows in Ireland will vote for all
officers except members of parliament
on substantially the same terms as men.
Before this municipal suffrage for wom
en in Ireland was limited to Belfast,
where they obtained it some years ago
through the efforts of Miss Isabella
Todd and other Irish women on the oc
casion of the granting of a new city
charter.
We congratulate the friends of equal
suffrage tu this emphatic evidence of
the value of municipal woman suffrage
Now, will our Uieuds cf the Boston
Pilot tell us why women in Dublin and
Cork should exercise a right denied to
Irish women in Boston? Let ns hope
that the spectacle of self respecting,
public spirited women voting in Ireland
may crt ate a change of feeling among
their countrymen and countrywomen
on this side of the Atlantic. — Woman’s
Journal.
A Plucky Young Woman.
Miss Emma Stoddard, United States
mail carrier, hcs proved herself a plucky
young woman and a faithful servant of
the government. Regardless of the rig
ors of winter, she has made her 18 mile
journey between Canton and Ponkapoag
postofiice every 24 hours since she was
awarded the contract last fall. t-;he
makes two trips each way daily. In car
rying the evening mail it was necessary
during the short winter days to make
the journey after dark, and it was pre
dicted that she would be frightened and
give up the work. Not she!—Exchange.
Patti as a Widow.
This description cf Patti as a widow
lately appeared in a German newspaper:
“In dress of dead white satin the
diva stood, her waist and skirt plain and
unmodified with puffs or plaits. Over
the whole was a trimming of dull jet,
put in fish net fashion, veiling, but not
concealing the lustered satin. Upon her
shoulders were bows of dull satin rib
bon, and in place of her diamond stars
her corsage was illumined with brilliant
jet suns. Her gloves and fan were black
as a raven’s wing. ”

“I am a writer of a distinctly mod

“All at once?”
“I don’t care whether they are all in

finding the person who is responsible

“Well—isn’t that what you are?”
“Perhaps. I will not discuss that.

Consumption Cured.
BROUGHT BACK FROM THE GRAVE.
Last November Mr. Joseph James
painter, of 325 W. Pearl St., Indianapo
lis, Ind., was at death’s door with quid
consumption. Wasted to a skeleton
his lungs a mass of ulceration; hii
death was hourly awaited by his docto:
and family. He was kept in a constan
stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him >
bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seeing iti
wonderful effect, the doctor advised iti
continued use. Mr. James soon afte:
dismissed his doctor, and dependec
on the Balm alone. His recovery wai
rapid and complete, and in February hi
returned to work. His lungs are sound
and his weight greater than at any tinu
in his life. His recovery is regarded ai
almost a miracle.
COMMA BACILLUS.
In consumption beware of cough mix
tures and prescriptions that contaii
opium. Opium paralizes the nerves
and gives the comma bacillus a goo<
chance to destroy the lungs. It i
•always fatal. Brazilian Balm does no
contain a trace of any opiate, but stimu
lates the nerves with new life and power
destroys the microbe, and restores al
that is left of the diseased lungs to i
sound and healthy state which no othe
remedy has ever been known to accom
push.
Now is the time to buy vour Gnso
line stoves, as the warm season i
just coming on. Do you know b:
actual test it has been found tha
four gallons of gasoline is equal t<
1000 feet of coal gas fire for cookim
purposes? Four gallons of gasolin
will cost 60c, and would ask you
please compare this with the price o
gas for cooking purposes, „nd se
what the saving will amount ti
