Mrs. A. M.

She writes as follows “A young lady of this city while bathing some years ago was thrown violently against the life line and the injuries received resulted in an ovarian tumor which grew and enlarged until death seemed certain. Her physician finally advised her to try Mrs. l’inkham's Compound. She did so and in a short time the tumor was dissolved or caused to slough off, and she is now in perfect health. I also know of many cases where the medi cine has been of great value in preventing miscarriage and alleviating the palnf and dangers of childbirth.

gxitg getmefcw fouimaL A turns t*. Saturday Morning, Mar. 7. Is your name on the voting list After a session of fifty-nine days, the sixty-second legislature adjourned last evening sine die. The nomination of George E Weeks created hurrying to and fro at the New Age office yesterday. The democrats are going to leave Mayor Whitehouse to fight his battle alone They have no more use for him. Let every republican prepare to vote and work for George E. Weeks and the whole republican ticket on Monday next. Republicans should see to it that their names are on the voting lists Tnere are many names to be added and changes to be made that should be attended to prompt ly and thoroughly. By reference to our report of the pro ceedings in the Senate yesterday, it will be seen that GEORGE E. WEEKS, the republican candidate for Mayor, voted in favor of the ten hour hill. This squelches the lving report that he was opposed to that measure. I’laisted, Morton Co. arc going to run a democratic candidate for Mayor, hoping that between him and Whitehouse they may succeed in defeating the republican candidate. Such a change of policy at this late day irdicates that the “citizens’ dodge is a failure, and that it is necessa ry tor the New Age clique to try some other expedient. Tlie Cabinet The composition of the Cabinet ot Pres ident Cleveland is quite noticeable. Mr. Bayard, Secretary of State;, comes from Delaware. He has been in the Senate since 1869, is a lawyer, and was like his State, in sympathy with the rebellion. Daniel Manning, Secretary of the Treas ury, is a New York politician, in whom the moss-backs believe they have a man after their own hearts, and that he will see that a clean sweep in regard to the offices is made. Mr. Kndicott, Secretary of War, comes from Massachu setts. is a lawyer,and was a whig down to I860, when he joined the democratic party. Mr. Whitney, Secretary of the Navy, is a New Yorker, a lawyer and hard money democrat, with tendencies in regard to polities averse to those of his colleague Manning. Mr. Vilas, Postmaster General, is a Wisconsin lawyer, and was a war democrat, having been in the army a few months at the commencement of the re bellion. Mr. Lamar, of Mississippi, is a lawyer, was an officer in the Confederate army, and resigns a seat in the Senate of the United States to accept the position of Secretary of the Interior. Mr. Garland, of Arkansas, Attorney-General, is a lawyer, was prominent in the secession movements of his State, ami was a member of the Confederate Congress. Six ot the seven members of the Cabinet are lawyers, while one appears to have to recommend him to the President’s favor that he is a New York politician, who was prominent in the efforts to give the vote ot that Slate to Cleveland. There is not a mugwump or pronounced civil service re former in the Cabinet, or the suspicion of greenbackism in its make-up. Most of the members of the Cabinet are wealthy and allied to the interests of the money kings of the country. There is not among them a single man who apparently reaches down and takes a warm hold upon the hearts of the people. The South has two members of the Cabinet, both having taken an active part in the army ami councils of the Southern Confederacy. New York also has two members, given as a double tie to hold her in allegiance to the democratic party; while the great West, with all her mighty and growing interests, stretching from the Alleghanies to the Pacific ocean, must be content with but one representa tive in the Cabinet. In its distribution and make-up it dis regards the welfare of the great people of the country as a whole, and looks to the interests and permanency of the poli tical combination by which Mr. Cleveland succeeded in gaining the Presidency. The .Mticrlag« Itanns. Thn of Mr. Bearce it was voted to insist and ask a committee of con ference, and the Chair appointed Messrs. Bearce, Allen and Lumbert on the part of the Senate.

ticura Mrs. Smith*• Case* and what the Rev. Mr. ■eKInatry has to sajr aboat It. To the Public I have been a fearful sufferer tor fifteen years, most of the time with what has been called Eczema or Halt Rheum, Psoriasis and l>epra, and the like, and have always been told that there was no cure for me, and have been so discour aged that I had as soon die as live. I have been so badly afflicted some times that there was not the smallest spot from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet that was not diseased and as red as crim. son. It wonld commence in small white spots which had a silvery appearance, but were not deep, but if I attempted to heal them, or soon after their first ap pearance, they would burn and run together until there was a complete dry, red scale, whicn would be come so inflamed as to crack and look fiery and angry, and the burning sensation would be almost intolerable. I was at times so lame that I could scarcely get about, and could not dress myself without assistance. 1 hav*- tried many remedies and have paid $100 in a •ingle instance to a physician, but have ever obtained only temporary relief. Although helped for a time, 1 soon relapsed again to be as badly troubled as ever, and during the whiter of 1*81 and 1882 I. suffered so much as to be entirely discouraged. Last June, however, 1 was advised by Elder and Mrs. L. C. Mc Klnstrv, who are well known in these r* gions, to try vo-r Cuticura Remedies; and I felt somehow a littl* courage, from their favorable opinion ol them, to try their virtu*-. About the s-cond week of July last I commenced taking the remedies, and within six weeks I began to see a permanent improvement, until now (Oct 1) I am about as good as new and my flesh is as the flesh of a child. MRS. BENJ. SMITH. 1 certify that the above statement of my wife is correct, and 1 join wit'» her in expressing my grati tude for the great beuefli she has received. B. SMITH.

It dwells in the mind's eye of a mixed lot composed of laymen and scientists, who have pitched several tents on the banks of the. Litho dendron River, and, baptizing the spot with the limpid waters, have christened it Lithodendron City, only to jump the claim on the tollowing morning and found an other city of the same name at night, per haps 30 miles away, so that Lithodendron is almost anywhere along the banks of that river that flows quickly along, like some laggard that has fallen behind the times, and, as if abashed, is stealing on through scenes that bear the stamp ot long ago. One evening, as Lithodendron had been founded for about the fiftieth time, a Milesian gentleman, who formed one of the assistants to the scientific corps of in vestigators, was requested to bring in some wood for the practical purpose of boiling coffee. Halt an hour passed, and then the wood-cutter appeared with a wild look on his honest countenance. “Now, ain't it a curious thing?” he commenced, pointing to the ax. that looked as if it had been dulled purposely with a file. "D’ye known. General, forninst in the old dart. Father Malone, long life t* his wor ship told me av a counthry beyaud the says where the trees and the cattle were all turned to stone. “Its’s jokin’ ye air,’ says I. ‘Ye’ll live to see the day I'm not, says Father Malone; and more pow er to him. I’ve done that thing. I’ll pre juce me resignation av ver honor’ll give me pin and paper and someone to write; I'm on the home track the very night. Matter l,ook at the ax: uivu a piece oi wood hut’s turned to stone! The first bit av a tree I found, I laid off me coat an’ fetched it a blow, when it flew out of me hands, and the tree let out a stream at light half a mile long. 1 tried five, and each one was harder than the other, and in the bush was stone birds a sleepin’ on the limbs, and each twig weighed a ton.’’ Pat was thus the first to discover a feat ure ot the valley that formed one of the quests of the party, namely, the famous fossil forests that have been the wonder of everyone who has visited this region The slope of the river, here about fifty feet in height, presents a remarkable ap pearance. Not a green object is to be seen, but all about, strewn here and there, some erect, ami others prostrate, lie myri ads of pieces of strong trees, limbs, trunks and branches of a once mighty forest. So thick are these in some places, that one can almost imagine that this is the bed of some creek, with all its polished boulders laid bare, only that the remains have all the structural beauties that characterized them when alive. The cause of the wholesale destruction of the stone for ests is undoubtedly due to the extremes ot heat and cold that have snapped them off and hurled them to the ground. The soil here is soft and sandy, with some clay, perfectly adapted to the preservation of the remains. The size of some of these trees shows that manv of them might have compared with the extant sequoia of the National Park. One trunk was 225 feel long and about five feet in diameter, and so finely preserved and photographed in I he rock, as it were, that until the ax glanced from its flint-like bark and sparks ot fire followed, one could hardly realize the change that had taken place. The trunks that are broken show remarkable features, and a company, it is said, has been organized to cut them up into various articles of ornament, which when polished present a marvelously beautiful surface. The color of the wood is preserved, and veins of the richest red run here and lliere, anon changing to yellow, gray or blue. The remaikablecoloring has given rise to curious and erroneous impressions in the mind of the noble red men (prin cipally Navajoes) that summer in the lo cality. They have a legend that their forefathers were a vast and powerful race and that they conquered a mighty giant that lived on the Lithodendron. The fos sil trees they consider his bones or parts of the skeleton, and the red stains, and even the lava beds, the blood which ran from him.—for. N.Y. Evening Pont. Practical Recipes. Excellent Orange Cake.—Two cups ot sugar, half a cup of water that has been boiled, yolks oi five eggs, two cups ot Hour, grated rind and juice of one orange, one teaspoonful of cream of tartar a half teaspoonful of soda and a little salt; bake in layers, icing tor the cake Heat the reserved whites of four eggs to a froth, stir in powdered sugar until quite stiff, add grated rind and juice of an orange. Put the cakes together with this. If you wish to cover the top of the cake with icing, make stiffer with powdered sugar. To Remove Grease Spots.—A mixture which is excellent for removing grease spots and stains from carpets and clothing is made of two ounces of ammonia, two ounces of white castile soap, one ounce of glycerine, one ounce of ether: cut the soap tine, dissolve in one pint of water over the fire add two quarts of water. This should be mixed with water in the proportion of a teacupful to one ordinary sized pail of water. Mix thoroughly, and wash soiled garments in it For removing spots, use a sponge or clean flannel cloth, and with a dry cloth rub as dry as possible. Woo'.en goods are made to look bright and fresh by being sponged with this. Hominy Fritters.—Two teaeupfuls of cold boiled hominy stir in one teacupful ot sweet milk and a little salt, four table spoonfuls of sifted flour and one egg. Heat the whites separately, add last. Have over the tire a pan of hot lard drop the batter in by spoonfuls and try a nice brown. This is especially designed for a breakfast side dish, and rice is good used in place of hominy. Orange Marmalade.—Take of high flavored, sour oranges, half their weight in sugar. Squeeze the juice through a sieve coarse enough to allow some of the pulp to pass through as well, but none ot the seeds or white inner skin. Grate in as much of the yellow rind as wili flavor the marmalade richly, and if, after you have mixed the sugar with the fruit, it seems insipid, add the juice of lemon until proper tartness is acquired. Cook for two hours, stirring constantly, and put away in glasses or shallow wooden i boxes lined with thin white paper. Arrowroot Pudding.—One cup of sugar, four eggs, one-half teaspoon each of cinnamon and nutmeg.four tahlespoon fuls of arrowroot, one quart of milk. Boil the milk and add the arrowroot dissolved in water: next add the beaten yolks of the eggs, sugar and spice bake in a quick oven. When done add the beaten whites of the eggs mixed wilh sugar to the top and set in the oven to brown. Delicate Indian Pudding.—One quart of milk scalded, two heaping tablespoon fuls of meal, cook 12 minutes; stir into this one tablespoonful of butter, then beat three eggs with four tablespoonfuls ot sugar, one-half tablespoonful of ginger, salt to taste, mix all thoroughly, and bake j one hour. A Bank may fail, and yet, by wise management, regain its credit. So, also, if wise counsels are followed, the strength and vigor of a failing constitution may be restored. Many cases like the following could be cited: Frank Laprise, Salem st., Lowell, Mass., says, that on account of Impure blood, his whole constitution was shaken. After taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla freely for a month, his health was restored, and his original vigor regained. Speculation as to what will cure Dyspepsia, vanishes before the light of such evidence as that furnished by O. T. Adams, Spencer, O., who says: For years I suffered acutely from Dyspepsia, scarcely taking a meal, until within the last few months, with out enduring the most distressing pains of Indigestion. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla saved my life. My appetite and digestion are good, and I feel like a new man.” Two bottles of Failure to get the best remedy at the outset, In volves, iu case of sickness, not only a waste of money, but useless suffering. John H. Ward,9Tilden st., Lowell,Mass., says: “Ayer’s Sarsaparilla cured me of boils, sores, and itches, which no other remedy could remove. I tried several other so-called sarsaparillas,’ but re ceived no benefit from them.” 'William H. Mulvin, 122 Northampton st.. Boston. Mass., writes that The Cause of al! his sufferings, “enough to kill a dozen men,” was the failure of Lis kidneys and liver to properly perform their func tions. He was permanently cured by using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Mrs. George Edwards, Boston Highlands, Mass., was cured of liver and bilious troubles by the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. 'Warren Leland, the famous hotel proprietor of New York city, writes: I bave person ally used Ayer’s Sar Ayers Sarsaparilla saparilia cured me of Dyspepsia,” writes Evan Joues, Nelson, X. Y. Mrs. A. M. Reach, Glover, Vt., writes: “A humor of tha blood debilitated me, and caused very troublesome scrofulous bunches on my neck. Less than one bottle of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla has restored my appetite and -•rength. It has also greatly lessened the .-•.veilings. I am confident they will be entirely removed by continued use of the Sarsaparilla.” Irving Edwards, Ithaca, N. Y., was afflicted, from boyhood, with scrofulous sore throat. Four bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla cured him. and he has Never since Ih'cii troubled with the disease. for Rheumatism, with entire success.

Coach man, Bronson, Fla., writes: I suffered for months from debility, and pains in the lower part of my chest. Three bottles of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla have made a new man of me. I am eutirely cured.” Doctor T.
