Thi9 beautiful toast to woman was originally given by a man who had been a hard drinker, but who had turned from the wine cup and become one of the leading lights of the legal profession. The occasion was a banquet in Philadelphia, on April 17,1881. It is as follows: "I should like to propose a toast tonight, although a total abstinence man myself?I toast to woman. To be drank, not in liquor of any kind, for we should never pledge a woman in that which may bring her husband reeling home to abuse where he should, love and cherish, sends her sons to a drunkard's grave, and her daughters to a life of shame. Oh, no, not in that, but rather in the life-giving water, pure as her chastity, clear as her intuitions, bright as her smile, sparkling as the laughter of her eyes, cheering as her consolation, strong and sustaining as her love?in the crystal water I would drink to her that she would remain queen regnant to the empire she has already won, grounded deep as the universe in love built up and exercises in the homes and hearts of the world; I would drink to her, the full-blown flower of creation's morning, of which man was but the bud and blossom, to her who in childhood clasps our little hands and teaches us to Jisp the first sweet prayer to the Great-All Father, who comes to U9 in youth with goc d counsel and advice, who in manho; d meet9 our heart yearnings with the faithfulness of conjugal love, and whose hand when our feet go down in the shadow, gently smoothes the rough pillow of death as none other can do; to her who is the flower of flowers, the pearl of pearls, God's latest,. hftst, and brightest erift to man ?woman, peerless, pure, sweet, royal woman." > A Paying Investment. Mr. John White, of 38 Highland ave., Honlton, Me., says: "Have been troubled with a cough every winter and spring. Last winter I tried many advertised remedies, but the cough continued until I bought a 50c. bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery; before that was half gone, the cough was all gone. This winter the same happy result has followed; a few doses once more banished the annual cough. I am now convinced that Dr. King's New Discovery is the best of all cough and lung remedies."

Mary, aged five, ana stena wno was about the same age, were talking about their future dreams. "When I grow up," said Mary, "I,m going to be a school-teacher." "Well, I'm going to be a mother with four children," said Stella. "Well, when they come to my school I'm going to whip them, whip them, whip them I" "You mean thing!" said Stella, as the tears came into her eyes. "What have my poo* children ever done to you?"?October Deleniator. Notorious Character Convicted. Columbia, Sept. 24.?Louis Well, a white man who has conducted a dive in this city for several years, was convicted in the sessions court this week of violating the dispensary law and given a sentence of one year in the state penitentiary without the alternative of paying a fine. Judge George W. Gage imposed the fine. Many people suffer a great deal from Kidney and Bladder troubles, During the past few years much of this complaint has been made unnecessary by the use of DeWitt's Kidney and Bladder Pills. They are antiseptic and are highly recommended for weak back, backache, rheumatic pains, inflammation of the bladder and all other annoyances due to weak kidneys. They are sold by Kaufmann Drug Co.
