. It is said the demand for the "Gum

er this year than ever before. No sensible
farmer will Jo without a drill, and since the
great secret of raising wheat is sowing early,
any farmer too stingy or thriftless to buy,
and who each year depends on his neighbors
for a drill, ought either to change his tactics
or hunt a new occupation.

Fever and Ague Extinguished.
Martyrs to Intermittent Fever, a word with
you. '1 he respcnsihility fervour suffering rests
upon yourselves. Just as surely as you shake to
day, or will shake to-morrow, HOSTETTEIV'S
CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTERS will ex
tinguish ihe disease under which you labor. Had
you taken this genial tonic as a preventive, you
would have no need of it as a cure, for it renders
the system impervious to all miasmatic fevers.
But since you neglected the precaution, rid your
selves without delay of the complaint by resort
ing to the only reliable remedy. Break the chills
with 11 OSTETTER'S BITTERS, and they will
return no more. This is the experience of thou
sands, and it will be yours. Quinine is a slow
means of relief; it is nauseous to the last degree;
it is more dangerous than the malady itself; in
many cases it utterly fails. Flow different is tho
effect of the Bitters. Their curative action is
rapid: they are agreeable to the palate; they arc
noi only entirely harmless, hut tend inevitably to
strengthen the constitution and prolong life: they
n* ecr have Jailed, and it is confidently assumed
that (hey never can fail in any case of Fever and
Ague, however inveterate in its character. To be
without HOSTETTER'S BITTERS in any re
gion infested with Intermittent or Remittent Fe
ver is simply to reject safety a'.d court disease.

Consumption Curable by Dr. Sehenck's
Jledicines.
To cure consumption, the system must bo pre
pared so that the lungs will heal. To accomplish
this, the stomach and liver must first be cleansed
and an appetite created for good wholesome food,
which by these medicines will he cigested prop
erly, and good healthy blood made; thus build
ing up the constitution. Sehenck's Mandrake
Bill's cleanse the stomach of all billions or mucous
accumulations: and by using the Sea. Weed Tonic
in connection, the appetite is restored.
Sehenck's Pulmonic Syrup is nutritious as well
as medicinal, and by using the three remedies all
impurities arc expelled from the system, and good
wholesome blood made, which will repel all dis
ease. If patients will take these medicines ac
cording to directions, Consumption very frequent
ly in its last stago yields readily to their action
Take the pills frequently, to cleanse the liver and
stomach. It docs not follow that because the
bowels are not costive they are not required, for
sometimes in diarrhoea they are necessary. The
stomach must he kept hcaltl-y, and an appetite
created to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act 011 the
espiratorv organs properly and allay any irrita
tion. Then all that is required to perform a per
manent cure is, to prevent taking cold. Exercise
about the rooms as much as possible, cat all the
richest food—fat meat, game, and, in fact, any
thing the appetite craves; hut be particular and
masticato well.
