‘Best of All

Cough medicines, Ayer’s Cherry Pec- toral is in greater demand than ever. No preparation for Throat and Lung Troubles is so prompt in its effects, so agreeable to the taste, and so widely known, as this. It is the family medi- cine in thousands of households.

“IT have suffered for years from a bronchial trouble that, whenever I take cold or am exposed to inclement weath- er, shows itself by a very annoying tickling sensation in the throat and by

“T consider Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral a most important remedy

For Home Use.

i have tested its curative power, in my family, many times during the past thirty years, and have never known it to fail. It will relieve the most serious affections of the throat and lungs, whether in children or adults,””— Mrs. E. G. Edgerly, Council Bluffs, Iowa.

“Twenty years ago I was troubled with a disease of the lungs. Doctors afforded me no relief and considered my case hopeless. I then began to use Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and, before I had finished one bottle, found relief. I continued to take this medicine until a cure was effected. I believe that Ayer’s Sherry Pectoral saved my life.”’— Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, Ill,

** Six rm ago I contracted a severe cold, which settled on my lungs and soon developed all the alarming sym toms of Consumption. I had a cough, night sweats, pom ype ag the lungs, pains in chest aad sides, and was so prostrnien as to be confined to my ned most of the time. After trying various prescriptions, without beneiit, ty physician finally determined to give me Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. I took it, and the effect was magical. I seemed to rally from the first dose of this medicine, and, after using only three bottles, am as well and sound as ever.” -— Rodney Johnson, Springfield, IL

Judge Tuthill, &few daysago straightened | out one of the queerest matrimonial tangles | ever brought into the Chicago divorce courts. The complainant in the case was | Edward D. Tucker; the defendant was L. | Josephine Tucker, or as sbe has been) known for more than 15 years, L. Jose-| | phine Morris. Tucker married Josephine | in 1868, and they lived together about one | year, when she suddenly deserted him. She went to Kansas, and there after a year or two, got a divorce from him. Then Tucker married again. His second mar-

posed, and soon met and loved another wo- man. He married her and went to house- keeping at Pontiac. Wife No. 2 heard of his new happiness and had Tucker arrested for bigamy. The prosecution of the case}

was found that the divorce obtained by the/ wife of 1868 in Kansas was illegal, and the divorce he secured among the Mormons was declared illegal. He was still the hus- hand of Josephine and all the other wives were spurious. He was convicted and sent to Joliet. About a year ago he finished his term there and went to Chicago. Mrs. Tucker corroborated her husband's story as: to the marriage of 1868, her desertion and the divorce she obtained in Kansas. There ‘was a technicality, however, in the Kansas divorce, although she had married «a man | named Morris, and had become the mother of six children without suspecting that the ! divorce from Tucker was not lawful. Learn-

to Chicago to have the suarl unravellec. Judge Tuthill ordered that a decree be en- tered giving Tucker a divorce, on the ground of her desertion in 1879. _—It took the court just fourteen minutes to straight- en things.

Late South Carolina advices state that Dr. C. F. Panknin, a well-known chemist of Charleston, is perfecting an invention for utilizing the bark of the ramee plant as a complete substitute tor cotton, and a great revolution is thus promised. Dr. Panknin has placed on exhibition there a large roll of ramee which has been pre-

red and treated by his process. By ooking at the rol] it is easy to conclude that the method is perfect. The product is devoid of gum and of particles of the bark. Each filament is distinct and as glossy and transparent as a strand of silk. The roll has been bleached but not carded or combed. When this last process has been applied—which anyone can do with his fingers— it will appear even more advantageously. Dr. Panknin says that he is now perfecting & machine by which he can produce the stuff on a commercial scale. With the machine he uses now he has prepared a quantity of the article similar to that on exhibition. The stalks of ramee are first split longitudinally in half, or as nearly that portion as possible, These slips are then passed through an apparatus similar to a fluting machine, which breaks the weed into small pieces that are easily jdetachod from the bark which is left in jlong ribbons. The secret lies in extracting (the gum absolutely from the ribbon, re- moving at the same time all the finer par- ticles of bark. This done the decortication ‘is complete, It is learned that the cost of ,preparation by the chemical process will jnot exceed that for the preparation for market of equivalent amounts of long ‘cotton. Dr. Pankuin is now in communi- cation with business men in New York who ! are interested in the discovery.

The amount oi loss caused by accidental fires is placed at 47 per cent. of the total fire waste of the year, as against 31 per cent. last year; and this increase is mainly due to tires arising from spontane- ous combustion, on account of which the percentage of loss is increased from 9 per cent. last year to 34 per cent. this year, and to fires caused by electric wires, the num- ber of which has increased three-fold over last year,

much dog fennel is not used in making it. Probably it is as good asthe other elixirs of life, and, like them, it craves wary tak ing. Old Uncle Pompey Tagliaferro, of Shoat’s Mills, took an overdose the other night, and was so exuberantified that he set fire to his barn, tried to throw his mule into the creek, and finally broke his left leg while chasing hic own dog uader the hallucination that it was a coon.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

—-> The West River Bridge.

Srr,— Under the above heading appears an article in the Patriot of the 12th ult. It is a tissue of falsehoods frum beginning to end. Personal spite and animosity gleam from every line. It reveals the envy of the traducer. The work in question was or- dered to be pertormed by the Government, and plans and speciticatious were prepared under the supervision of the Commissioner of Public Works. The Supervisor simply performed the duties of his office by accept- ing the lowest tender, and if the contractors fail to perform their contract according to specifications the remedy in such cases can easily be applied. What right has the Patriot's writer to prejudge the contractor's conduct by stating that they will incon- venience passengers at shippingtime. How does he know that by that time their con- tract will not be completed? The Super- visor’s duties will be faithiully pertormed despite the scurrilous effusions of the

’atriot writer. Let the meeting for which the envious scribe of the P« ‘riot appears so anxious be called by all means, and Mr. Laird will then find that his Long Creek correspondent will be as,dw.ib as a whipped cur,

The honest and respectable Liberals of Lot 65 will be the foremost to defend the man to whose gratuitious abuse the columns of the Patriot are always tow open. Truth and honesty gre more prized by them all than the side a truckling knave may take at elections, and Mr. Laird wiil find to his cost that this wholesale abuse of a deserved- ly popular and leading member of our community will not be much longer tolerat- ed. Let him close his columns to those foul slanders, or he may soon find himself minus a number of veteran subscribers, and

Association of the Professors of Dancing at New York. This, it is said, was partly | invented by Prof. Rives, who says he got | the idea from a dying musician, who said ‘he dreamed it. Therefore it is called ‘‘the dream,” Le Reve. It consists of three ' glides forward, the last glide done slowly; then a coupe or a thrusting out of the for- ward foot, recovering it to the fifth position, behind the other foot; last is a jete or jump with the forward foot, at the same time bringing the other foot to the assem- blee or position of rest. Then repeat ad- libitum. A square dance was also recom- mended for the coming season. It is a schottische quadrille, a slight variation on ‘the schottiche quadriiles popular for many years, and stiil popular in Philadelphia. It was invented by Prof. J. P. Bucks, of Pittsburg.

Rev. Dr. Chas. A. Fowler, of San Fran- cisco, a bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church, who has just completed a trip

BROADENING THE LINES OF CIURISTIAN CHAR- ITY ON THE RUINS OF TIE HARBOR GRACE CATHEDRAL,

Out of adversity there cometh much good, The disastrous and calamitous fire at Harbor Grace, which, in four short hours, eat up the sacrifices, the toils and hopes of a quar ter of a century of the goou people ot His Lordship Dr. McDonald's diccese, has been the cause of awakening the sympathies of classes of the community. ‘lhe money loss alune was a quarter of a million dollars. The Lord Bishop of Newfoundland (Dr. Jones) and his good clergy have placed on record at their synod their sympathy with their fellow-christians in Harbor Grace at the loss of their magnificent and beautiful temple of worship. While the fire was raging in the cathedral, among tie foremost and most energetic workers were Rev. Mr. James, of the Methodist denomi- nation, and the captain of the Salvation Army. His Lordship Dr. Power, in preach- ing inthe Roman Catholic cathedral of this city last night for a collection expros- sive of the deep sympathy vf his diocese,
