FROM Fa KM TO BARROOM. SOMETHING UNTTSTTAZ, as a medicine, isf Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery: And, because of that, there's something unusual in the way of selling it. Where every other medicine of its kind only promises, this is guaranteed. If it ever fails to benefit or cure, you have your money back. , It's the only guaranteed remedy for every disease caused by a disor dered liver or impure blood. Dys pepsia, Biliousness, the most stub born Skin, Scalp and Scrofulous affections, even. Consumption (or inng-scrofula) in its earliest stages, all are cured by it. ; '. . It purifies and enriches the blood, rouses every organ into healthful action, and restores strength and vigor.. In building up both flesh and strensrth of pale, puny, Scrofu lous children, or to invigorate and brace up the system after " Grippe,' pneumonia, fevers, and other pros trating acute diseases, nothing can equal tiie ".Uiscovery;" You pay only lor the gooa you get. raaoB am Easily, Quickly, Permanently Restored.

A Bepublicnu Convention for tbe Connty of Vatco, State of Oregon is called to meet in Dulles City, in fold county, on Wednesday, April 4th, 1803 st 10 o'clock A. M.,' for the purpot-e of nominating undidutes for the following county offices: One County Coromitbioner, County Cicrk, County Sheriff, County Treasurer, County Assessor, Count v St hool Superintendent, County Coroner und county Suivevor; and Hlsoprecnct officers for the teveral precincts, and eight dele gates to the State Convention, and to tiansact Mich other busines s as may properly come before such comeniion. The i-onventiou will consist ' of 67 delegates cbotm by the several precincts,, nnd the teveral precincts of the county will be entitled to representation in said convention as follows: Tne Jonrney apt! Grmdaal Increase in Frloe of a Bushel of Corn. Illinois 'is the great corn state and Peoria is the center of its rrjost prolific belt. Peoria is a great grain market and especially for corn. ' Vast quanti ties of the polden grain are shipped ifi-to that city for general distribution and loaded into its mammoth eleva tors by the hundreds of - thousands of bushels. A great deal of corn is shipped from Peoria, but a vast quantity is used there. There is more corn used in Peoria than in any three cities in the union, even though these, cities be New York, Philadelphia and Chicago. The reason is obvious, says the Peoria Herald.. Peoria is not only the center of the great distilling interests, but there are located two of the greatest suerar houses in the country. Down the . capacious maws of tne great ais- tilleries are ' poured every day 20,000 bushels of corn. The sugar houses use from 5,000 to 10,000 , bushels more each dav in the year. To supply tne constant demand the product of 1,000 acres of rich corn la nds is daily shipped into Peoria for home consumption, Aside from these there are fully 5,000 bushels used daily for other purposes. So that it is safe to estimate that fully 9,000,000 bushels of corn are used in that city annually for manufacturing and other purposes.. The greater part of this is manufactured into spirits. It is wonderful - to consider the changes made by a bushel of corn in its transition from the owner's crib to the glass of the consumer.1 These' changes are various and far-reaching. They are other, than financial. But consider simply the mere element of value. Corn was sold the other day in Peoria for 85 cents per bushel. It came all the way from Nebraska, perhaps, where it brought but 25 cents. In transit two dealers received a commis sion of 1 cent each. The railroad com pany received 8 cents for its freight and other charges. The distiller paid 35. cents. He took and converted it into four and a half gallons of finished spirits and fed one of his steers on the refuse. The distiller sold the spirits to a local dealer for $5.12, of which Uncle Sam received $4.05 as a tax on the spir its, leaving a balance to the distiller of 72 cents after he bad paid 35 cents for his corn. The spirits, after being well watered and compounded, are sold at a profit by the compounder and rectifier to the dealer, who sells out at 15 cents a drink. The four and one-half gal lons have swelled to nine, and before it gets through it swells many a nead and also the revenue of the city where its lines may be cast. So that, in its travels from the Nebraska crib ,to the Chicago saloon, that bushel of corn has increased in value from 25 cents to many dollars, ( and with its constant running mates has furnished employ ment to at least to fifty men or more ,and has contributed to both the nation al and -municipal 'revenues. Such magic there is in the juice of the golden corn. v Of the "juice of that one bushel of corn, at least 100 persons, have im bibed, from the pious' old lady who took it for "la grippe" to the jolly" old toper wno tooic ic lor "the tigno.' To resume, that bushel of corn was thus, scattered on the highways of busi ness and pleasure: farmer, so cents; railroads, 88 cents; commission men, 2 cents; 'distillers, 72 cents, 72 cents; feeder,' 10 cents; -Uncle Sam, 84.05; compounder and rectifier, 25 cents; re tail dealer, $10; city, $3: The con sumer got whatever was left in the' spirits, each according to his strength or weakness. ' v - Monkey Versus Uuililog;. The fight was in a public place and in a. pit that was surrounded by an iron grating. There was a big crowd out to see the fight. Of course, every bodv thoucrht the doe would chew up the monkey. After a few minutes 1 hofvever,- the audience was surprised at the sagacity displayed by the mon key- The bulldog would make a rush at the monkey, and the latter would jump aside and allow the build og to hit his head against the iron grat ings. This was kept up for twenty minutes or more, and then the ' dog began to get tired. ' The monkey began to fight. He would let the dog make a rush and then jump on the dog's back and strike him several times with the baton. This was kept up for an h our or more, and finallv the doer fell on the floor com pletely exhausted, and the monkey actually pounded him to death. The monkey would strike, the 'dog several blows and ' then place his ear to the canine to see if he still breathed. A Lawyer's Self-Possession. It is told of Henry W. Paine, the Bos ton lawyer, who recently died in that city and who more than once refused a seat on the Massachusetts supreme court bench, that while he was arguing a case one day before Chief. Justice Gray the latter interrupted the course of the argument with the impatient re mark: "Mr. Paine, you know that is not law." The nature and - manner of the interruption were of a .kind to throw even the most self-possessed ad-. vocate off his balance. Mr. Paine, however, without any outward mani festation of annoyance or embarrass ment, replied with simple dignity: "It was law until your honor spoke," and proceeded with his-argument. Ten days loss of time on account of sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any thing but pleasant for a man of a family to contemplate, whether he is .a laborer, mechanic, merchant or publisher. J as. O. Jones, publisher of the Leader, Mexia, Texas, -was sick in bed for ten days with the grip daring its prevalence a year or two ago. Later in the season he had a second attack. He says : "In the latter case I need Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with considersible sac cess, I think, only being in bed a little over two days. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first bat for the use of the remedy." It should be borne in mind that the grip is much the same as a very eevere cold and requires precisely the. same treat ment. When you wish to cure a cold quickly and effectually give this remedy a trial. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by Blakeley & Houghton, druggists Pictured In Words. ' The Bronx Valley, for many miles of its course, is a marvel of fog and cloud effects these winter mornings. When neighboring hills have long emerged into the clear sunlight the depths of the valley just alng the stream are still clad in thirfr clouds, mixed with, fog, and with smoke and steam from the hundreds of railway trains' that ceaselessly speed up and down the valley. The deepest parts of the val ley, as seen from near hillsides, $eem level full with . an almost snow-white fluid mist, and this trails in long strata across the face of wooded hillsides, with rifts here and. there that give g limpses of bareheaded tree trunks. A few miles southward, where the valley broods in the east, Bronx Park looms, fairy-like, through thinning mist, and the sun floats, round and pale, shorn of its keener rays, while, just below, the picturesque grounds and buildings of St. John's college at Fordham take on a quaint and antique air that doubles their charm. r . - I Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury, As mercury will surely destroy the sense dt 'smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous, surfaces.

COINS FROM ' PRIVATE MINTS. They Were Issued t'i tne Time of the Civil War. The constitution of the JTnitcd States provides that no state s'.uill coin rnoney: but it seems that individuals mirht do so, up till about the time of the late civil war. Of course it has al ways been agrainst the law to counter feit or imitate the coinage of the United States? and so, necessarily, a coin is sued by a private mint would have to be'so distinctive in.shape or markings as to show that it was not intended to. pass as federal money. For this reason, says the Washington Star, the fifty dollar sold coins or tokens issued by several private, mints in California during the flush times of the fifties were octagonal in shape. Gold coins were also issued by the Mormons of Utah at about the' same time, and the same thing had been done by parties in Georgia and North Carolina. . Probably the latest of these private mints was the one established in Den ver in the early sixties. It is said that the coinage of this establishment be ing brought to the attention of Secre tary Chase, that eminent financier was much astonished to find a respectable firm of bankers engaged in making and uttering money;' and was still further surprised when the attorney general of- the United States declared they had the right to do so. This incident caused the passage of a law absolutely pro hunting individ uals- from issuing or circulating any thing intended in any manner to serve as money. A. Fnnny Superstition. : There are people who have a dis tinct antipathy to the screech owl and cannot listen, to a single burst of its hilarity without shuddering. The. screech owl is supposed by the negroes ou southern plantations to be in di rect communication with all s the "ghosts" and "giants" of the .'forests. "He plays a great .part in the more weird folklore story of the darkys. A funny superstition in - regard to the screech ,6wl is that if you will take your shoe or slipper off your left foot the first time you hear an owl laugh and turn the shoe sole upward on the floor and place your "stocking foot" on the bottom of the shoe's sole the owl .will stop laughing and fly for ten miles without rest. .'--- i The experience of Geo.
