BAD LEGS, BAD BREASTS, SORES AND ULCERS, All descriptions of sores are remediable by the proper and diligent use of this inestimable preparation. To at tempt to cure bad legs by plastering the edges of the wound together is a folly ; for should the skin unite, a bog gy diseased condition remains underneath to break out with tenfold fury in a few days. The only rational and successful treatment, as indicated by nature, is to reduce the inflammation in and about the wound and to soothe the neighboring parts by rubbing in plenty of the Oint ment as salt is forced into meat. This will cause the malignant humors to be drained eff from the hard, swol len and discolored parts round about the wound, sore, or ulcer, and when those humors aro removed, the wounds themselves will soon heal ; warm bread and water pout t ices applied over the affected parts, after the Ointment has been well rubbed in, will soothe and soften the same, and greatly assist the cure. There is a description of ulcer, sore and swelltng, which need not be named here, attendant upon the follies of youth, and for which this Ointment is urgently recommended as a eovereige reme dy. In curing such poisonous sores it never fails to restore the system to a healthy state if the Pills be taken accord ing to the printed instructions. DIPTHERIA, ULCERATED SORE THROAT, AND SCARLET AND OTHER FEVERS. Any of the above diseases may be cured by well rub ling the Ointment three times a day into the chest, throat, and neck of the patient, it will soon penetrate, and give immediate relief. Medicine taken by the mouth must operate upon the whole system ere its influence can be felt in any local part, whereas the Ointment will do its work at once. Whoever tries the unguent in the above manner for the diseases named, or any similar disorders affecting the chest and throat, will find themselves re lieved as by a charm. All sufferers from these complaints should envelop the throat at bedtime in a large bread and water poultice, after the Ointment has been well rubbed in ; it will greatly assist the cure of the throat and chest. To allay the fever and lessen the inflammation eight or ten Pills should be taken night and morning. The Oint ment will produce perspiration, the grand essential in all cases of fevers, sore throat, or where there might be an oppression of the chest, either from asthma or other .1181,S. PILES, FISTULAS, STRICTURES. The above clam of complaints will be removed by night ly' fermenting the parts with warm water, and then by most effectually rubbing in the Ointment. Persons suffer ing from these direful complaints should lose not a mo ment in arresting their progress. It should be understood that it is not sufficient merely to smear the Ointment on the affected parts, but it must be well rubbed in fora con siderable time two or three times a day, that it may be taken into the system, whence it will remove any hidden sore or wound as effectually as though palpable to the eye. There again bread and water poultices, after the rubbing in of the Ointment, will do great service. This is the only sure treatment for females, cases of cancer in the stomach, or where there may be a genera' bearing down. INDISCRETIONS OF YOUTH ;-SORES AND ULCERS Blotches, as also swellings, can, with certainty, be radi cally cured if the Ointment be used freely, and the Pills taken night and morning, as recommended in the printed. instructions. When treated in any other way they only dry up in one place to break out in another ; whereas' this Ointment will remove the humor from the system, and leave the patient a vigorous and healthy being.— It will require time with the use of the Pills to insure a lasting cure. DROPSICAL SWELLINGS, PARALYSIS, AND STIFF Although the above complaints differ widely in their origin and nature, yet they all require local treatment.— Many of the worst cases, of such diseases, will yield in a comparatively short space of time when this Ointment is diligently rubbed into the parts affected, even after every other means have failed. In all serious maladies the Pills should be taken according to the printed directions ac companying each box. Both the Ointment and PiUS should be used in the follow• Bad legs, Cancers, !Sore Nipples, Bat Breasts.

A DETECTIVE'S STORY. One cold January night I was seated cozily by my fireside enjoying a cup of tea, which my wile knows so well how to make, when a violent ring at the front door bell disturbed the reverie in which I was indulging. _ _ My visitor was a liandsotn3 young girl of about eighteen years of age. She was dressed with great taste, and evidently belonged to the upper ranks of life. She appeared somewhat embarrassed, as if she was at a loss how to begin the conversa tion. "Have I the pleasure of speaking to Mr. James Brampton ?" she said at last. "That is my name," I replied. "My name, sir," continued the young girl, gaining courage, "is Eliza Milford." "Milford," said I—"what, the daughter of the gentleman who has lately so mys teriously disappeared, with the account of which the papers have been so full for the past few days ?" "The same, and it is on that very busi ness I have come to consult you. You are perhaps aware that a young man has been arrested on a charge of having taken his life." "Yes; a Mr. Henry Waring, I believe." "Yes, that is his name—that young man is innocent." "Indeed !" "I will make a plain statement of the facts of the case, and then I am sure you will agree with me. My father's name, as you are aware, is Mr. Herbert Milford.— We live on the banks of the North River, about twelve miles fewn New York. My father wits devotedly attached to me, and we lived as happily as possible together. About a year ago I was introduced to the son of a gentleman living in the neighbor hood, and mutual love sprang up between us. Henry Waring visited my father's house every night. But suddenly our dream of happiness was dissipated, and that, i;oo, by an extraordinary circumstance. Henry was early ono morning found in the garden attached to our house, in a half-senseless condition ; his clothes and hands were covered with blood, and my father had mysteriously disappeared.— Every search was made for him, but with out any avail, and Henry was arrested on the charge of having murdered him and concealed the body somewhere." "That. was a strange conclusion to come to." said I, interrupting her. "Yes, but you have not heard all," she replied. "My father's watch and purse were found in Henry's pocket at the time he was arrested." S CD 0 R ' 0 ..... - a. ._ ....• C ON "How does Mr. Waring. account fur that?" I asked. "I don't know," replied Miss Milford, "for I have not been permitted to see him. He has been removed to the county jail, and his case has not yet been investigated, owing to the fact of my father's body not having been discovered. But to sup pose that Henry could be guilty of murder and robbery is too preposterous to believe for a moment " "Such would certainly appear to be the case," I returned; "but did not the place where Mr. Waring was arrested reveal anything ?" "0 yes; a terrible struggle had evidently taken place there. The flowers and roots were torn up ; the shrubbery broken, the ground in various places was covered with blood and a knife was found which was proven to have belonged to Henry, also stained with the vital fluid." o p E 3 te o N P- , 4.., -4 CIAL' "Do I understand that your father im posed no obstacle to your marriage with him ?" "None at all, sir; in fact, my father loved him." "How long ago is it since your father was missing ?" "This is the fourth day. My motive, Mr. Bramptom, in applying to you, is to free Mr. Henry Waring from the imputa tion of a crime of which I am sere he is as innocent as I am." "It does indeed seem improbable that The "Alter." HUNTINGDON, PA,, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1876. he committed the deed. ' must do is to ace Mr. Henry Wariirr., and hear what explanation he tr. !five." "Thank you, sir," said .?•11-., "When shall I come and ~ ,,;1 again ?" "Are you staying in N,.•,-; "Yes sir; lam stayitr— , :it • :toot." "Very well, when I 11711:v •••:.:hing to couintmlicate to you I will e The next morning I start.,l ;,i• the town of L., situated on the Huds ;liver Rail road, in the prison of which M.. Waring was confined. I had some lit: f difficulty in obtaining permission to the prisoner, but when I stated that I was a detective officer an order was reluctantly given to me. The moment I entered his ee.l Mr. War ing advanced to meet me. In a few words I told him of Miss Milford's visit to me and that I was working by her instrne lions. "I own the circumstantial evidence ap pears to be very strong against me," he replied, "and I am afraid my plain, un varnished story will not do much toward disproving it. But the following are the simple facts of the case: On the in question I visited at Milford's house ag usual. I stayed there until eleven o'clock and then took my leave. J was accustomed to return home by the garleu at Uhl hack of the house, as I saved in distance by so doing. On the night I refer to I was about a dozen v::r from t.ho back gate when two ieee st . n.rted up from behind some bushes anti seizA hold of me. Before I had time to t7t•rend my self one of them struck me a viol-nt, blow on the head, which knct,Vl down senseless. When I recover , Y as day light and I must have been t ail night. I found my hands and clothe: rc 3 with blood, and my knife, which 1. carried for self-defense, abstracted from tu:: ptu:ket. I had scarcely risen to my fe , •!. I was seized and accused of having murdered Mr. Miltbrd." "But how about the watch and purse ?" "I assure you that no one was more sur prised than myself when they were taken from my pocket." "How long a time had you p trted with Mr. ;Milford when you were a: , sailed in the garden ?" "Mr. Milford usually retired at ten o'clock, leaving Miss Milford and myself up together." After a little more conversation with the prisoner I withdrew, not very well sat• isfied with the result of my vLit. It is true it served to confirm me in the opin ion I had formed of Waring's innocence, but I was no nearer discoverimf the truth than before. My next proceeding was to make a strict examination of the premi..ws 1:,,c1y occu pied by Mr. Milford, and 1 Tally the spot where he had been ns , :::lcd. The house afforded no clue, but garden con vinced me that the disorder tlicro had been made after the young man had been struck, and that it was not occasioned h any real struggle that had taken plan:., to in duce the belief that such a struggle had occurred. There was too 111.• re4ularity in the uprooting of the riots, and the shrubbery was broke 4 , system atically not to set this point at rest to the eye of the detective. I discovered tint the most in ate search had been made for Mr. MiW) , ,i's body, but without any success. Ali. t• making these investigations I returned to New York, and really saw but little hope of be in;: able to unravel the mystery. Three weeks passed away and L had not discovered one single link in the chain I was seeking to find. One day Miss Mil ford called on me again. In a few words I told her that up to the present time my researches had all been fruitles.. She look ed disappointed. "Have you heard," she said, "that my uncle, Oliver Milford, is occupying Linden Manor house ? "Your Uncle occupying Linden Manor house !" I exclaimed in a tone of great surprise. _ . ';Yes, he appeared there two weeks ago and claimed all my father's property by virtue of a will which he exhibited, and by which he was made sole heir to all my father's estate." "Are you sure that the will is a genuine one ?" I asked, a ray of hope entering my mind. "There can be no doubt that it was sign ed by my father," she replied. "But who is this Uncle of yours ? I nev er heard you mention him before." "I had almost forgotten his existence, for the fact is, my lather and he were not on good terms together, and his name was scarcely ever mentioned." "Are you left nothing in this will ?" "Nothing." "Is it not very strange, Miss Milford, that your father should have left your un cle all this property ?" "It is, indeed, very strange." replied the young lady. "They have never spoken to each other for years. Father could never bear to hear the name of his brother Oli ver mentioned, and whenever lie did speak of him, which I have before said was sel dom, he always spoke of him as a bad hearted man." "And yet you say the signature to the will was in your father's liandwliting ?" "Yes, sir, I am perfectly sat:-tied of it; so much so that when some el •::y friends advised me to contest the v:!lid:ty of the will, being firmly convince.: tii:a my lath er really did sign it, I refuso4 most posi tively. I care nothing about my father's wealth, and it is not to regain this that I ask your assistance, sir ; my simple wish is to obtain Henry Waring's release." "has the will been proved ?" I asked. "0 yes," she replied ; "my uncle has taken full possession." "And what have you been doing since ?" I asked, more out of curiosity than any thing else. "I have obtained some music pupils, and lam doing very well, as I bef;)re said. 1 have no concern about myself'." "Have you any letter or document with your father's signature attached to it ?" "I have a number at home," she replied. "By the by, I think I have a letter of his with me now, written to me some six years ago, when he was in Albany. So saying she took from her reticule the letter in question and handed it to me. "Will you allow me to retain possession of this?" I asked. "Certainly," she replied, "but I can as sure you that if you suppose the will to be a forgery you are mistaken. The will is undoubtedly genuine." "Well, my dear young lady," I return ed, "I do not doubt your word, but you may be mistaken. At all events, I should like to judge for myself." I then bade her good morning, and ex pressed a wish to see her again that day week. When she had gone I immediately pnt on my hat and coat and directed my steps to the Recorder's office for the pur pose of examining the will. Aided by the index I found it readily, to read every word of it. At last I came to the signature. I took from my pocket the letter Miss f:IillOrd had given me, ibr the perpose of compar ing the signatures. Therb c , aild ne (huh whatever hut the signature ST:74gett • nine ; the letters were round to be the :ethic, and were evidently written by the Same hand. Still there was a marked dif ference betweentbe two. That attached to the letter was bold and firm, while that at tached to the will was weak and tremulous.. The will was witnessed by John Dorsey. The fact of the difference in the signa tures aroused my suspicions. A person's signature rarely differa except when the mind is influenced. But then again I re flected that time might impair a person's writing, and I compared the date of the will with that of the letter. What was my astonishment to find that they were both dated on the same day, namely: Jan. 1, 1840. I next held up the document to the light, for the purpose ofseeing if there was a watermark on the paper. I figind such was the case, and the "Connecticut Mills, IS-13," could be made cut most distinctly. Here was a will purporting to have been signed in New York on the first day of January, 1840, by a man who was in Al bany on that day, and on paper that was made three years afterward. And yet there could be no disputing the fact that the signature was a genuine one. The whole truth in a moment flashed on any mind, and I immediately set about unrav eling the web. I went to work with a good heart, for I bad little doubt of success. My first proceeding was to make inqui ries as to the exact date of Mr. .Milfurd's disappearance. I discovered that it was on the 10th day of January, and that Oliver Milford had conic to take possession of the property on the 21st. I also made inqui ries as to the past life of the heir to the property, and ibund that in Boston, from . which city he came, he bore a very disrep utable character, and that no one would trust him. I then returned to L., nod put tin g up at a country tavern, I called the landlord to one side. thing 1 "Mr. Adams," said I, "do you know any one of the name of Dorsey living in this neighborhood ?" "Yes, sir; there's a Mr, Jolin Don4ey who lives over the river." "What kiwi of a man is lie?" I asked. "Ile is a very tall, strong man," he re• plied. "I mean what kind of a character does he bear ? "Well, I can't say much in his favor, s:i I would rather not say anything." "I suppose he is not very much likel by his neighbors r' "You may well say that. Ever since be attacked poor Mr. Milford so savagely nobody speaks to him." "Ho attacked the late Mr. Milfuri. did he?" "Yes, sir; a most unprovoked assault. It seems that Mr. Milfbrd offended this wan in sonic way, and one day there was a sale in town, and Mr. Milford and D.,r sey kith bid for the same article. It was knocked down to the former, and it was alter the sale that the assault was com mitted." 'Was Dorsey pra=ecuted for it ?" "Yes; be was imprisoned for a year and had to pay a heavy fine." I learned all I waited to know and changed the conversation. I wade inquiries as to the exact spot where the witness to the will lived. I learned that it was over the river, on an island, the whole of which he owned. I procured a boat and rowed directly across —the river was not broad. I then skirted along the shore until I came to a landing place. After I had proceeded a quarter of a mile I reached a spot where the marks of horses' feet were plainly to be traced on the snow. It was evident that horses had been embarked at this point on a boat or raft, and had been conveyed to the other side at the point from which I had started. I made my boat fast and looked around me. I found that the island was small, and so thickly studded with trees that I could see but little in advance of me.— Taking, however, the horses' hoofs for my guide, I came upon an old, dilapidated stone building which had evidently been built long anterior to the Revolution.— It seemed to bo entirely unoccupied, for the shutters were closed and thick grass and weeds grew in profusion. I walked all around the house, but could not find a living soul visible, but I was rewarded by a sight which made my blood tingle in my veins, for it served to sub stantiate my theory with respect to clear ing up the mystery, and this sight was nothing less than the impression of a club foot many times repeated, near the front entrance of the house, thus showing con clusively that Mr. Oliver Milford was a frequent visitor at Mr. Dorsey's. I rang the bell, and receiving no answer I opened the door, which was unfastened. It was evident that Mr. Dorsey lived by himself, for there was only one room fur nished, and that but meagerly. The first thing that I noticed was a candle and a box of lueifer matches on the table in the room. Although it was daylight I lighted the candle and began to explore the house. I first of all examined the upper portion of it, but found nothing. I then examined the groulpl floor, with the same success I did not feel discouraged, fur [ felt almost satisfied from the fact of tho en.ndle being there that such would be the result. I next proceeded to examine the cellar, and had not descended half a dozen steps before I heard a faint groan. I rushed forward and entered a spacious vault. In a corner of this damp, dark and dismal dungeon, reclining on a heap of straw, with manacles on his wrists and ankles, I saw an old man whom I was satisfied was Mr. Herbert Milford. I held the candle over his head and saw that he was sleeping. At that moment I heard the sound of footsteps behind me, and turning round saw that it was Mr. Oliver Milford ad vancing toward me with all the ferocity of a tiger. A terrible struggle ensued, but I was the younger man of the two, and finally succeeded in overpowering him, and in fixing the manacles with which be had loaded his poor brother on his wrists and feet. The poor old gentleman was conveyed back to his residence, and was soon grati fied with his daughter's presence. Young Waring was immediately released from confinement. I may add that in a month or two Eliza Milford and Henry Waring were married. Oliver Milford died after four years con finement in State's prison, where he had been condemned for life.

All that is damnable in the black 4t alogue of guilt, all that is corrupt in t h.. store-house of human iniquity, are treas ured up in that base and cowardly being, the malicious slanderer. The individual who aims a pistol at our breast, or tells as his sword shall smother Li vengeance in our bosom, gives us at least the privilege of defending ourselves against his atrocious assaults; but he who, from the dark recess of his perjured soul pours forth the Teem of the asp to poison our reputation, who can sport with our "good name" and Walt at one fell stroke all that we hold moat dear, deprives us of the power of acting on the defensive. Such folks ought to make a memorandum daily of everything they themselves say and do, and criticise it every Saturday night. This would keep them so busy attending to their own affairs, that they wouldn't have time to attend to the affairs of others. Do one thing at a time—that's the rule. i .. ~,~., ll' 1.)• .v .; • • t. - ; Tn• •!•• st r -r h•! r.;r ir•t 'tr.! mu r. 4 '• r • .tre , n; 31.14 le' 3 "ity Pe^l i•• c:rvlrcr .itS~.lTtl ~ 7 ~'~~ •- ~. ~.. ... , .`. , :-• . .~ r• ! .. ~~ .: ~ ~! .. ~ ,t•nat 1 r ►Fr •wor. 7. .1n ,•r.,•- !...c,,r.41..,n E .
