the audience was respectably large. The
performance of this Troupe is well worth
seeing, and none who were present last night
regretted going, but, rather, eager. to go

want of a hall has prevented him, but now
that the great Original Comedian is here at
tended by a first-class Troupe of Artistes, it

AN . ICE HOUSE EASILY MADE.—A
correspondent of the Western Rural
gives this bit of practical experience :
Last January 1 drew one load of saw
dust and spread on the ground on the
north side of my horse barn, then
drew the ice (sawed in square cakes)
and built up a square pile some eight
by ten feet and seven or eight high,
filling up the spaces between the cakes
with younded ice. I then sat up scant
ling and built a board house around it
two feet larger each way than the ice;
then filled in saw dust around, and
two or three feet on top, and covered
with boards and slabs. We have used
freely through the season, sold to pic
nic parties, given away to sick • neigh
bors, and have plenty of ice yet.

sw'lt is strange to see with what careless.
nese some invalids attend to their health.
They will procure a box of Plantation
tore, which ought to be used up in a month or
six weeks, and upon inquiry it is found that
they have used only two or three bottles.
Some days they have used it according to the
directions, and others have not touched it.
The whole trial hos been irregular, and of
course a less favorable result has come from
their use. If it be true that "what is worth
doing at all is worth doing well," how em
phatically is it true in matters relating to the
health. A few IMttles of Plantation Bitters
have often wrought wonders, while in other
instances disease has only been subdued after
weeks of resistance.
