By a fall on the ico, Mr. Jeremiah
Coleman, Norwich, N. Y., sustained
a severe and <$wtij)atc sprain, of
which ho was cared by St Jacobs
Oil, the magical pain-cure.
In Nepaul, India, there is a class
ot natives who serve as "saddle
men," and take the place of saddle
horses. Strapped around the
waist and fitting into the curve of
the back is a padded ledge. It is
supported vertically by shoulder
straps, and on it the rider sits.
Mothers ! Mothers! I Mothern 11!
Art; you disturbed at night find broken in
your rest by a -irk child flifli'ringand crying
with the exorutiating pain of cutting teeth?
If go, g<> at once and get a bottle of Mrs.
Winslow's Soothing Syrup. It will relieve
the poor liutle sufferer immediately—depend
upon it; there is no mistake about it. There
is not a mother on earth who has ever used
it, who will not tell you at once that it will
regulate the bowels and give rest to the moth-
er, and relief and health to the child, operat-
ing like magic. It is perfectly safe to use in
all cases, and pleasant to the taste, and is the
prescription of one of the oldest and best fe-
male physician's and nurses in the United
States. Sold everywhere 25 cents a bottle.

After a christening ut a church
recently, while the minister was
making out the certificate, he hap-
pened to say, "Let me see, this is
the thirtieth!" "Thirtieth!" ex-
claimed the indignant mother,
••indeed it is only the eleventh."
The minister was alluding to the
day of the month.

CUItE iron PILES.
Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he had some affection of the kidneys or
neighboring organs. At times, symptoms of
indigestion are present, as flatulency, uneasv
ness of the stomach, etc. A moisture, like
perspiration, producing a very disagreeable
itchinej, particularly at night after getting
warm in bed, is a very common attendant.
Blind, Bleeding and Itching Piles yield at
once to the application of Dr. Bosanko's File
Remedy, which acts directly upon the parts
affected, absorbing the Tumors, allaying the
intense itching, and effecting a permanent
cure, where all other remedies have failed,
Do not delay until the drain on the system
produces permanent disability, but try it
and be cured. Price, 60 ccnts." Sent prepaid

The Hartford Courant givos tho
latest returns from the Connecti-

makes this comparison betwoenthe
1883 and 1884 vote: There are 72
Republican town boards of regis-
tration chosen, against 85 last year;
49 Democratic, against 53 last year;
while 21 boards aro divided. Thus
the Republicans have lost control
of 13 boards, as compared with
1883, and tho Democrats 4.
