Innovation on any established rule or custom hss, from ths sarliett age of the world, been always received with disfavor and opposition. This It psrtly due to the conservatism of prejudice snd psrtly to that innate jealously of success which teems to be Implanted In ths humsn heart. Let sny one depsrt in medicsl prsctlcs or anything elae from the beaten path of rou tine snd thsrs It st once s cry rsltsd about v toasting the etiquette of the profession snd following chsrlstsnry.

AftUKH IN FRUIT CUITtJRC A correspondent of the American Garden says : "I have always hsd the best results from the use of ashes in fruit culture, and in some esses the results were In propor tion to applications far more liberal than 1 would have dared to recommend. Thus, one spring I wss setting sn apple tree two years old of the Maiden's Blush variety (never a precocious variety with me) in s location that seemed to have been Intend ed by nature as "s thorn In the flesh" as long as I Include it In my orchard. I wss Impossible to drain it st sny expense justified by the probable resultt.snds trse rarely lived In it longer than two years. In this particular casc.until I had ths hole dug, It was nesrly filled with water.I felt desperate, and procuring a bucket of un leached wood ashes, put them in the hole, deposited the roots of the tree below the surface of the water and filled tha hole as best I could. The tree blossomed the succeeding fall and ever after has been vigorous. Since then I have trenched around my orchard trees sll the wood sshes, either leached or unlesched, thst I could convsalently get. One spring I in corporated sshes la the soil sbout some grape vines thst I wss setting out, giving to each vine sbout half a bushel. I never before had grape vines do so well." A Congressional contest of more than usual Importance Is thst of Judge Robert Lowry , democrat, against Jsmes B. White, republlcsn, In the Twelfth Indiana Dis trict. Counting that state,the republicans have control of twenty state delegations in the House of Representatives, just suffi cient to elect s president in case the elec tion should be thrown into the House. Should Judge Lowry be given Mr. White's test It would turn the Indisns deiegstion over to the democrats, which, while it would not give them sufficient states to elect, would so reduce the republican ma jority ss to mske thst party powerless. As s result the House could not elect s presi dent next yesr should the people fsil to do so. It is claimed that Mr. White, who waa born in Scotland, Is not s fully asturalixed citizen of the United States.

The Cincinnati Enquirer has been poll ing the 1 residential preferences of mem bers elect of the Ohio legislsture. Twenty-five republicans heard from favor Sher- msn.four Blaine and one Lincoln.

Day and Night During aa acute attack of Bronchitis, a ceaseless tickling In the throat, and an exhausting, hacking cough, afflict the sufferer. Sleep is banished, aad great prostration follows. This disease Is also attended with Hoarseness, aad some times Loss of Voice. It is liable to be come chronic, involve the longs, and terminate fatally. Ayer's Cherry Pecto ral affords speedy relief and cure in cases of Bronchitis. It controls the disposition to cough, and induces refreshing sleep. I have been a practising physician for twenty-four years, aad, for the past twelve, have suffered from annual at tacks of Bronchitis. After exhausting all the usual remedies Without Relief, I tried Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. It effected a speedy cure, G. 8 to veal 1, ML. D., Carroilton, Miss. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is decidedly the best remedy, within my knowledge, for chronic Bronchitis, and all lung diseases . M. A. Bust, M. v.t South Paris. Me. I was attacked, last winter, with a severe Cold, which grew worse and settled on my Lungs. By night sweats I was reduced almost to a skeleton. My Couch was incessant, and I frequently spit blood. My physician told me to give up business, or I would not live a month. After taking various remedies without relief, I was finally Cured By Using two bottles of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I am now in perfect health, and able to resume business, after having been pro nounced incurable with Consumption. 8. P. Henderson, Saulaburgh, Penn. For years I was in a decline. I had weak lungs, and suffered from Bron chitis and Catarrh. Ayer's Cherry Pec toral restored me to health, and I have been for a long time comparatively vig orous. In case of a sudden cold I always resort to the Pectoral, and find speedy relief. Edward E. Curtis, Rutland, Vt. Two years ago I suffered from a severe Bronchitis. The physician attending me became fearful that the disease would terminate in Pneumonia. After trying various medicines, without benefit, ho prescribed Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, which .relieved me at once. I continued to take this medicine, and was cured.
