    FARM, GAR1JES A!JI HOUSEHOLD.
. The t'ge ofPnrl Green.
The danger resulting from the use of
the pari green for destroying potato
bug exists only froj carelessness in
handling it, when, if it is breathed or
permitted to penetrate sores or -wounds
upon the skin, some trouble mny ensue.
So far, although the poison has been
used for several years, and thousands of
tons have passed through farmers'
hands, there has been no single case of
the accidental poisoning of any person
by it reported. Neither are the pota
toes at all affected injuriously by the
poison. It is insoluble and cannot en
ter into the snbstance of tbe plant, and
it is not until it is used at the excessive
rnte of nine hundred pounds per acre
that it has boen found to interfere ia the
slightest degree with any vegetation.
As butfour pounds per acre is lieoessary
for an extreme case of urgenysrheu
the beetles are very numerous, the ap
prehension of danger to the crop is to
tally unwarranted. Years after it has
been largely used without any ill effect,
and in spite of its palpable absurdity,
the statement was made by a Washing
ton professor that the potatoes might
absorb the poison and be unlit for con
sumption. The question has been now
finally set at rest by the most positive
proofs through experiment by most
careful and really scientific men that the
absorption of the poison by the crop so
as to do auy injury to it is lmpossiuie.
All fears upon this score are groundless.
We would urge upon every reader the
duty of using every effort to destroy that
pest, the potato bug, and not only this,
but every insect post that troubles the
farmers. By neglect their numbers are
increased enormously, until human ef
forts seem unavailing. Through perse
verance snccess would be certain, and
freedom frcu future ravages assured,
Our natural allies, which, although
harmless, are made the victims of an
unsparing warfare, the crows, skunks,
and nearly cvrry bird that fiieB, should
bo spar- d and encouraged to assist us in
this wnik. The amount saved that if
now lot would be incalculable, and the
furnv-r would n relieved of an immense
burden. New York Times.'
Winter t'ulilvutton of Potatoe.
The subject of winter cultivation of
potatoes it exciting much interet in the
agricultural circles of Europe, and the
successful experiments of M. Telliez,
who first suggested the cultivation on a
large scale, lias started many into the
field. A short account of his met bod
appear in the Revue Ilorticole. Tho
general plan is analogous to t:.at adopted
in other summer vetreUbles, only that
the sowing or planting is done in the
autumn, so as to get the potatoes very
early iu spring, by taking precautions to
protect them from the cold dur.ng the
winter. The whole operation, os recom
mended, may be-described in a few
words. Pick out healthy potatoes of
medium size of the sort required soon
after they have been dug up; keep them
in a comparatively cold and well venti
lated place, so that their sprontiug may
bo delayed as hmg as possible; plaut
them out about August (or thereabouts,
according to circumstances) in well pre
pared soi .taking ciro not to damogethe
buds. The usual utteution in the case
of ordinary potato growing is required;
keep the earth clean and loose, ho that
the stalks may develop well, and make
as much tuber as possible before winter
sets in. When tho earliest cold is ex
pected, scatter a thin light covering of
straw over the stalks, increasing it in
proportion as needed, so as to shield
the tubers from the cold. These will
then go on makiug bulk. By this
method, it is said, potatoes may be
gathered from January and February
(or even earlier) up to March, April, or
even May precisely the time when old
potatoes have lost 'their goodness, and
the new ones are still scarce, unripe and
dear.
Pluming Tree In the Fall.
The question as to whether spring or
fall is the better season for planting has
been much discussed, and the conclusion
reached has generally been that, iu
western New York and similar climates,
one is about as good as the other. My
experience with hardy fruit aud de
ciduous ornamental trees is in favor of
fall. It is true that we have an occa
sional severe winter, when fall planted
trees suffer, but these are of rare occur
rence. Last fall, quite 4ate, after the
hurry of the season was all over, I plant
e 1 several hundred dwarf pear trees.
After planting, the earth was drawn up
around the base, say six or more inches
above the level of the ground, to give
protection to the roots and stiffen the
tree against the force of the wind. May
22 I had the earth around the trees re
moved to the ground level, and find
vigorous new roots, three to five inches
iu length, spreading in all directions
from tho quince stock. The tops are also
pushing rapidly, and in the whole plant
ing of three hundred trees there is not a
failure. It is easy to see what an advan
tage these have over those planted this
spring, even under the most favorable
circumstances for the latter. In spring
planting it often happens that a long
period of cold weather and drying winds
follows the planting, aud tha trees get
seriously dried before the growing sea
son opens, or a dry and warm period
comes before the roots have acquired
vigo enough to Mistaiu the tree; under
such adverse influence they either die or
linger along feebly all summer. We
must take some risk iu planting at any
season, but, on the whole, I think the
chances are iu favor of the fall for hardy
deciduous tree P, Barry, in Jiural
Home.
Another Case.
The sad story is told in the New York
Herald of another poor woman who has
suffered wrong at the hands of a sewing
machine company, one paid nity dol
lars in installments on a machine sold to
her for sixty-live dollars, and probably
floating the manufacturers not more than
fifteen to twenty dollars. Her machine
was taken away on a temporary stop
page of the installments, end when
afterward she off-red the fifteen dollars
balance was told the should pay in ad
dition six dollars and a quarter lor " re
moving tho machine." As this was out
of her power she has neither -seen ma
chine nor money since. If this is not
extortion from the poor we should like
to see a definition of the term.
The Ruling Passion.
A bet made by a celebrated gambler
nearly a century ago deserves to be re
corded for its singularity. After a run
of ill luck with Lord Lorn, he jumped
up suddenly, and seizing a large punch
bowl that stood near, said, addressing
his lordship: tFor onoe I'll have one
bet where I have an equal chanoe of
winning! Odd or even for 15,000
guineas." "Odd," replied tbe peer,
with the utmost composure. Dash went
the punch b iwl against the wall, and
the pieces being counted, unfortunately
for the young hero of the experiment,
there proved an odd one, and he was a
ruined man.
THE STARS AND STRIPES.
Tho Fln f the united Btnten The Flint
Flea end the lat one Thirty-eight
Htar.
Tbe pine tree was early adopted as the
provincial emblem of that community
trom wnioh the states of JUassachnstftts
and Maine were subsequently erected.
It appeared on the shillings and sixpen
ces coined by Massachusetts in 1052, and
when Maine was divorced from the Bay
State, in 1820, the pine tree was pic
tured on her escutcheon and gave its
name to the new State. When the Now
England colonists began to chafe nnder
the rule of Oreat Britain, one of the
first symptoms of growing rebellion was
an aversion for the "meteor flag of Eng
land." Massachusetts not only led in
the revolt against British oppression,
but she furnished the vessels that were
to bear a flag which should, in some fee
ble but determined sort, express hostili
ty to the mother country. The pine tree
nag of the sturdy little commonwealth,
so far as we know, was the first which
braved the ire of Great Britain. Loug
before the time of the Declaration our
bold privateers flew the pine tree flag.
E u ly, too, the Crolinians, possibly ac
cepting the suggestion made by the
Northern pine, adopted tho palmetto as
their ensign of. sovereignty. But the
first Republican flag in the South was
one designed by Uol. William Moultrie,
oi vjnariesion. it was oi blue, witu a
white crescent in the upper corner, next
tho stall, line flag waved on the defen
ses oi Uharleston, and when Jj ort Hulli
vau, afterward Moultrie, was bombard
ed by tho British, Juno 28, 1776, the
crescent flag floated above tho palmetto
logs of tho east bastion. Iu tho early
years of the Revolution, tho Southern
palm waved at the head of gallant South
Carolinian regiments, strngg iug whore
the tight was thickest, in time, as we
know, the palmetto was transferred to
the State shield, just as the pine tree
became the symbol of Maine, and as,
mauy years after, the lone star of Texas
was blazoned on the coat of arms of that
State, aud as, in like maimer, the griz
ly bear rudely painted with berry juice
on the white banner of the Sonera val
ley adventurers in 1846, eventually be
came tho " totem " of tho young State
of California.
Another revolutionary device was the
rattlesnake, an Ameiican product oi
dangerous proclivities. This was blazon
ed on the flag of Commodore Esek
Hopkins, who commanded ths fleet of
privateers which sailed from the Dela
ware capes in 176. The reptile was
pictured on a yellow Held with the
motto "Don't tread on met' Auother
form of the same design gave the field
with thirteen stripes, red and white,
across whicu tho serpeut spread his un
itulatiug length. Before Hopkins sail
ed, however, Washington had hoisted nt
Cambridge, Mass. (Jan. 2, 1776), the
"JCirand Union flag, a banner in which
the blended crosses of St. George and
bt. Andrew were retained in the union.
while the thirteen stripts typified the
new compact of the colonie. At the
battle of Bunker hill, it is said, the pine
treo figured iu a white square in the red
cross of St. George, which filled the
upper corner next the staff; the field of
that flag was bluo. There were obher
modifications of the various emblems
already iu use among the colonies. The
beaver of New Xork had its place in
ensigns of the first armed ships which
sailed out of this harbor. Not until
J uue 14, 1777, did our national flag as
sume definite shape aud color. During
au tins time, uncertain what tney were,
or what political condition they should
reach, our forefathers thought less of
an ensign than of the result of their
struggle. The country had been de
clared independent of Great Britain; all
signs of British domination must disap
pear. The Congress ordered that "the
flag of the thirteen United States be
thirteen stripes, alternate red and white
that the union bo thirteen stars, white in
a blue Held, representing a new coustol
lation. At nrst the stars" were ar
ranged in a circle; subsequently, when
additional States entered the Union
Congress formally increased the number
of stars to hiteen, and these assumed
the form of one largo star. In 1818 it
was ordered by Congress that a new
ftar should be added to the constella
tio: on the fonrth of July next sue
ceeding the admission of a new Sta'e,
Colorado, therefore, gives us the thirty-
eighth star in our azure July i, 1877,
one hundred years after the formal
adoption of the flag of the Union.
Tho Centennial Gates.
As strangers have been much puzzled
as to what line of cars to take in order
to be landed near one of the entrances
of the Centennial grounds, a aorre
spondent says, it should be stated that
it would be more difficult to find a sec
tiou where there are no gates than where
there are many. At the eastern end of the
Main building will be found sixteen
gates, extending from corner to corner.
Near the center of the same structure
are eight more and at the west end six
teen. West of the Centennial bank, on
Elm av( lino, are four gates ; at the junc
ture of Elm and Centennial avenue,
sixteen ; at the center of Machinery hall,
four; nrar Fifty-second street, four ; on
George's hill, two ; on the Belmont
drive, four ; at the Glen entrance, two ;
at Horticultural hall, four ; Laudsdowne
valley, six ; Memorial hall, six ; on the
old river road, four.
Our Children's Country.
Ex-Gov. Bonham, of South Carolina,
was tho last speaker at the centennial
anniversary of Fort Moultrie. He said:
If there was a man who went into the
war with bis whole spirit, I was the
man. Cheers. We gave you the
best fight we had loud cheering,
and when the war was ended 1 feel
assured you regarded us as a foe worthy
of your steel, and we can assure you we
regarded you in the same light. I ven
ture to say that never before in the an
nals of history has tbe Anglo-Saxon race
been engaged in such a war. It was not
your country alone, it was our country.
It is our country aud shall be our chil
dren's and our children's children's
country. Applause.
A Question of Law.
A curious question of law arises
out
of tbe lots of tbe City of Waco, iu Gal
Teuton bay, in November, 1875. A hus
band and wife named Rogers were
among tbe ill fated passengers, and tbe
heirs of both are contesting a claim to
a sum of money left in bank by Mrs.
Rogers. Tbe case turns on tbe ques
tion : Whch died first, tbe husband or
tho wife! If the former, then her next
of kin can claim the money. If the lat
ter, then her husbaud became her heir-at-law,
and his next of kin has the best
claim. It is a difficult matter to settle
this case under tbe circumstances.
Tbe English navy had in commission
on the tirrit of October last 211 ships,
carrying 1,689 guns, with 25,156 officers
and men, 2,721 boys and 6,053 marines.
GAMBLING OF THE T00R.
Prevnlence ef Policy Plnylne Method nnd
History of. the Mwlodie The Principal
Dealers.
Folioy gambling, which has become
so extensive in New York city that hun
dreds of dealers 191 of whom are
known to the polioe are engaged in it,
is still carried on with entire immunity.
The practice of some of the captains of
polioe has been to send one of their men
dressed in citizen s clothes to tho re
puted policy doalors, the offioer to pur
chase a ticket and then to arrest the man
who sold it. This system had its seri
ous drawbacks. The magistrate before
whom the dealer was brought told the
otnoer that in his estimation it was a
small piece of business for a member of
the polioe force to be engaged in. The
dealer was often able to detect the de
tective either through a friend's infor
mation or by his own observation. The
most discouraging drawback is the late
order forbidding polioe ofuoors to enter
a publio place for tho purpose of mak
iug an arrest in citizen's clothes. An
other system has been lately adopted in
hopes of breaking up the pernicious
practioe of gambling. Trivale persons
have been ongnged by the captains of
police to purchase policy tickets and
then make complaint, but owing to tho
lack of funds to pay theso persons for
their services tho system has not been
pushed with much vigor. It is hoped
by the captains thot an appropriation
will bo made from the police fund for
this purpose
1'oliey gambling was invented by pett y
dealers in lottery tickets, to ensnare the
poor. It is founded on tbe regular
drawings of lotteries made iu other
States, and the vender is himself the
banker. For lustoune, out of seventy
five numbers put iu the lottery wheel,
twelve are drawn out. The poor, who
out of their meager earnings cannot
afford to purchase an expensive ticket,
go to a dealer in policy aud bet him ten,
twenty cents, or a dollar (for the rcale
can be enlarged or reduced at pleasure)
against five times the amount that six or
any other specified number will bo
among those drawn. The banker takes
the offer, notes it on his booK, and gives
the player a memorandum of tho bet
upon a slip of paper until the drawing
of the lottery, upon which rests tho de
cision of the wager. These bits of paper are
called "policy flips." If the chosen
number comes out and tho dealer is
"hit," he lopes the amount of the wager
min :s the amount paid for the slip,
which is the bet of tho player. The
banker holds "the stakes," and there
are six chances to one against the player.
If, more sanguine in his disposition, the
player wishes to take a greater risk iu
the hope of a greater return, he bets
his cents or his dollars that No. 6 will
not only be among those drawn, but
will bo in a certain station, say tho
third, fonrth or last one drawn from tho
wheel. By this system the chanoes
against tho player are enhanced im
mensely, and the banker promises a re
tnrn of sixty for one if the player wins.
.This mode of gambling is called playing
"station numbers, because their sta
tion in the slip is indicated, and the sys
tem first mentioned is called playing
" day numbers," because it is sufficient
for the player if his numbers are any
where in the day's drawings. Policy
players have invented "horses," "gigs,'
"whips," "saddles," and "cross gigs,"
but these are elaborate combinations,
and would occupy much space for de
scription. Previous to 1832 this kind of gamb
ling was littlo in vogue, but lottery tick
ets were bought largely. When the leg
islature of 1832 abolished lotteries in
New York, policy playing was largely ex
tended, and was seized upon with avidi
ty both by bankers and players to avoid
the penalties of the statute against lot
teries. Among the men who became
most notorious iu this business were Ba
ker, Judah, Webber, Cole, Petty, and
the Simmons brothers, the most exten
sive dealers in the city. The immense
profits and the rapidly accumulating
lortuues which these dealers were secur
ing aronsed the cupidity of a horde of
speculators. Enticed by the facilities
which policy playing offered for the
gratification of their passion for gam
bling, new players becamo infatuated
and were drawn into the net, and at the
present time it embraces within its fatal
influences, in addition to thousands of
the poor white population, nearly all the
colored people. The results are read
ily perceived. The deluded victims,
unable to satisfy their desire for gam
bling from their legitimate earnings, be
gin pilfering from their employers.
Step by step they sink deepor into crime
and are ruined, while the promoters of
their guilt appear in courts and main
'a'n lawyers to defend and officials to
protect them.
The Bo ton Forger.
Winslow, the Boston forger, was re
leased from confinement i i London.
Window's sun, who was in attendance,
flew to bis mother to communicate tho
news. Mrs. Winslow consequently was
the first to bear intelligence to her im
prinoued, unhappy husband. Winslow,
when told of the result in his cell, ex
hibited no signs whatever of any great
joy. Naturally enough his escape from
a trial aud sentence could not but plea.se
him, and it did ; but a moment's glance
at bis future will show to anybody bow
wreichedly the outlook loomed before
him, : " I am an outcast from home. I
have no money and no friends in Eng
land j no work, and here I am with my
family upon my hands." And he spoke
truly, for he stepped from his cell almost a
pariah. While waiting te receipt of
the order he conversed with his wife and
one of the Boston officers, and shortly
before three o'clock the order for his
release was officially communicated to
him. He then took his clothes, and, af
ter bidding good-bye to the officers of
the houH.e, of detention and heartily
thankiuk them for tbe kindness that
they had shon him during his confine
ment, he walked out free just four
months to a day and an hour from his
commitment. He says, in talking with
him, that it is his most earnest desire to
return to Boston, if there is any way by
which he could obtain a nolle prosequi.
He says bis only desire is to be allowed
in Massachusetts to work out his debts
and in time pay all his creditors. A re
port that has occasionally drifted about

East Rlrer Bridge.
It is estimated that it will take about
ttfo weeks longer to get the masonry for
the East river bridge between New York
and Brooklyn iu readiness, and that by
the end of the month the derricks will be
raised, and a part of the necessary ma
chinery erected upon the tops of tho piers.
A temporary footbridge will be thrown
across the river about two hundred feet
above the water. Upon this the work
men will pasi back and forth, suspend
ing and arranging the parts, of tho
temporary bridge which will precedo tho
final superstructure, and looking very
much like spiders upon a single thread,
weaving a tremendous web. When the
cables are stretched they will be fastened
to tho main piers and continued to the
anchorage piers, where they will be
made fast to immense chains built into
the masonry. These chains aro in
themselves marvels of construction.
They are called chains because composed
of links, but each link is nearly fifteen
foot long, three by nine inohes square,
and there are from eight to ten of them
lying parallel and side by side in each
chain, bolted one to auother. There
are four such chains, having in all 856
links or bars, the total weight of iron
beiug 1,000,000 pounds in eueh anchor-
ago pier. l!iiwh ouo ol luese piers
covers six city lots, aud contains newly
30,000 cubio yards of solid masonry
In all the piers the blocks of granite
aro laid with narrow spaces between
them which ure filled with concrete well
beaten dwn. leaving no cavities, and
forming a mass of matter which, when
tho concrete has hardeno I, is as remark
able for its solidity as its size. Ihe
engineer thinks that tho bridge can be
completed in threo or lour years.
Senatorial Opinions on Lotteries.
Mr. Hamlin said in the United States
Senate that all lotteries, even if they
were legalized by State law, were noth
ing more than legalized gambling.
Mr. West (Rep.), of Louisiana, said
they had a lottery law in Louisiana.
Ho was opposed to it, and always had
been, but he did not thiuk Congress had
the power to deny mail facilities to lot
teries.
Mr. Logan (Rep.), of Illinois, spoke
in favor of prohibiting lottery advertise
ments or circulars bring transmitted
through tho mails. The New York
iotteries were great frauds, and so were
those of the city of Baltimore.
Mr. Whyto said they had had no lot
teries in Baltimore since le&'J.
Mr. Logan said he would as soon le
gulize a faro bank as a lottery ollico,
Mr. Maxey (Dem.), of Txas, also op
posed lotteries, and spid he regarded
them as a curse, lie believed in bring
iug the strong hand of tbe law down
upon tbem.
Mr. Wbyte had always set his face
against lotteries, and was on tbe first
committee in the Legislature of his
Stato which made a move to break them
up.
Mr. Logan thought that all men who
made money in lottery schemes were no
better than gamblers.
A Dog Commits Suicide.
Casper Usinger, living iu the western
part of New lork, owned a largo dog,
purt bloodhound and part terrier. About
six weeks ago Mr. Usinger was taken
sick and died. During his sickness the
dog showed great uneusiness, and often
walked from the bed to the door, as
to make its master understand that
wished to have him accompany it out
doors. After the death of Mr. Usin
ger the dog insisted on staying in tbe
room in which he was lying; as soon as
tbe funeral procession left the house
the dog ran up stairs, looking through
all the rooms as if in search of some
one, but being unable to find the object
of his search, he showed great signs of
distress, often whining and acting as if
some one was going to whip him.
ladv who happened to be near watched
the dog very closely. After a little
while she saw him going toward the
railroad. She followed him, but only
got there in timo to see the poor brute
lay himself on tho track and be cnt
two by a westward bound express train,
It is supposed by every one in the vi
cinity that the dog's affections wre so
great, for its master that it could not
survive his death, aud therefore willfully
terminated its existence by committing
suicide.
The Story of John Gilpin.
Ladv Austin one evening told Cow-
per the story of " John Gilpin," which,
as told by her, tickled bis fancy so muh
that he was kept awake by nts of laugh
ing during a great part of the night af
ter hearing it, and must needs turn it
into a ballad when he got up. Mrs.
Unwin's son sent it to tbe Publio Adver
tiser, where it appeared without an au
thor's name. John Henderson, an actor
from Bath, who took the London play
goers by storm in 1777, as Shy look,
Hamlet aud lalstaff, was then giving
readings at tbe Fret-masons tavern.
He bad succeeded almost to Uarrick s
fame. His feeling was so true, his
voice so flexible, that Mrs. 8iddons and
John Kemble often went to hear him
rea . Henderson, finding " John Gil
pin " in piint, but not yet famous, chose
it for recitation. Mrs. Siddous heard it
with delight, aud in the spring of 1785
its success was the event of the season.
It was reprinted in many forms and
talked of in all circles; prints of " John
Gilpin " were familiar in shop windows;
aud Cowper, who was finishing tbe
' Task," felt that his more serious work
would be helped if it were published
with this ' John Gilpin," as an avowed
piece by the same author.
A Co-operative Family.
In Springfield, Vt., exists the " Practi
cal Co-operation Association," composed
of fifty-five men and women, the major
ity of whom are from twenty to twen
ty-five years old. Tbe association was
started about two years ago by an inhab
itant of Spriuarfield. who, with four oth
ers, having a capital of 81,000, hired a
small shop with water power, and in it
began the manufacture of toys and oth
er light artioles. They were regularly
organized as a oo-operative society, open
to persons of proper character and ca
pabilities, who are required to have a
capital, or entrance fee of one hundred
dollars. An easy and abundant market
was found for their goods, and recruits
joined them rapidly. They soon owned
their own buildinc, and were progress
ing rapidly when one of their shops
burned. A few withdrew disoouraged,
but in two months a new shop wii-i built,
Thenoeforth their prosperity increased,
and now the community is in a flourish
ing condition. All not only woi k in the
one shop, but they are also all of one
family.

Washington's Appearance.
Miss Jane Stuart, in an interesting
article in the July number of Scribner,
gives the following interesting remin
iscence in connection with the " Gilbert
Stuart Portraits of Washington:" " I
once heard my fathor, iu private conver
sation with Washington AUston, give
his candid opinion of General Washing
ton's appearance. He said that his
figure was by no means good, that his
shoulders were high and narrow, and
s hands and feot remarkably Urge.
He had " aldcrmanio proportions," and
this defect was increased by tho form of
tho vest of that day. But with all these
drawbacks, his appearance was sintra
larly fine. I have noard my mothtr say
that tbe nrst time she saw mm, ne en
tered the hall door as she passed from
the entry to the parlor, and that she
thought him the most superb looking
person she had ever seen. He was then
dressed in black velvet, with whito lace
ruffles, etc., exactly as Stuart s pictures
represented him." No man better than
Washington knew the advantage gained
by being well dressed. Indeed, he had
fondness for hue clothes, and on tne
higher social ai well as publio oconsions
was the ber.t cirrr.pcd man of bis time.
London Beauties.
It is no slight work which the beau
ties of London have t perform, a cor
respondent writes. As I heard one say
to another the other night, on a crowd
ed staircase, where people had been
waiting for half an hour unablo to get
either up or down: " We have to go to
a reception and a ball yet, and this is our
third party to-night. To drag around
from houso to house like this, night af
ter night, requires a constitution of cast
iron, and most of theso fair damsels
seem to have it. Tho first rosa of the
year is not a moro beautiful object than
some of theso girls, with their perfect
forms and complexions as fresh and
clear as the daylight. They are begin

Liver and Blood Diseases,
By n. V. Tierce, M. D., anthor of "The Peo.
pie a Common Heutte Medical rVdvieer.'
A healthy liver eecretea each day about two
and one-half pounds of bile, which contains a
great amount of waste material taken from
the blood. Wheo the liver booomeg torpid or
congtstod it fails to eliminate this va"t amount
of noxious substance, which, therefore, te
nia na to peiBon the blood, and be conveyed to
every part of the pystem. What must be the
condition of the blood when it is receiving and

come overtaxed iu performinic this labor in ad-
dilion to their natural functions, and cannot
long withstand the pressure, but becomo vari
ously diseased.
The bt a.u, which is tho great electrical cen
ter of all vitality, is unduly stimulated by the
unhealthy blood which passes to it from the
heart, aud it fails to perform its nfiioe heathi-
ly. tlence the symptoms of bile poisonirg,
which are dullness, headache, incapacity to
keep the mind on any subject, impairmont of
memory, dizzy, sleepy or nervous feelings,
foroboJiug", aud irritability of temper. The
blood itself beiug diseased, as it forma the
sweat upon the surface of the skin, it is so
irritating and poisonous that it produces dis
colored brown spots, pimples, blotches and
other eruption-, sores, boils, carbuncles and
scroiuious tumors. 1 no stomach, bowi Is and
oiner organs cannot escape oeoominir affected.

system, tec mis great "housekeeper of our
health at work, and the foul corrUDtions
which gender in the blood, and rot out, as it
were, the machinery of life, are Kraduallv ex
pelled irom the syatnm. rot this purpose,
Dr. fierce s Uoldeu JUedical Discovery, with
vet y small do.ies daily of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Purgative Pellets, are pre-eminently the articles
needed. They cure every kind of humor from
tne worse scroruia to the common pimple,
