Thk Model Farmer. The model far
mer can't be found tn everr nelzhbor
hood. You may even tramp over half
a century possibly without meeting him
But when your eyes once fall on the
model farmer you may know him by
uie luiiowing signs :
The model farmer thoroughly loves
his business; regards it as one of the
noblest of callings ; is wide awake to all
its interests, and takes an active part in
every enterprise to rnish them forward.
But our model farmer has no hatred of
honest workers in other lines of indus
try, and knows full well every pursuit
is made prosperous through the h&r-
ubliironT an prosperity of all the rest.
mivI.ivw "- Our model farmer is a thinker. He
- . laid out his farm with especial ref-
uuiy tuBux to highest possible convent
brana.ence. The arrangement of his barn.
to fi' feeding-sheds, and pig-pens, all show
the thoughtful purpose. His fields are
cultivated with a rotation of crops set
tled npon years beforehand. The model
farmer likewise plans the work of the
season so that every particular job has
its place, and there is no confusion or
doubt as to what comes next.
3. The model farmer is likewise a
model business man. lie is wary about
going into debt, knows just what his
liabilities are, keeps systematic accounts
of all his transactions, can tell you the
exact cost and profit of every crop and
of every herd, meets his obligations
with promptness, and dont finish up a
new house or a new barn with a mort
gage. 4. The model farmer is a model in
skillful farm management. lie used all
labor-saving instruments, but keeps
them in perfect order, and housed when
not in use. You will find on his tools
neither rust or rot. He does everything
in its proper time loves thoroughness
hates weeds, hates slovenly farming,
gives his stock good shelter and abund
ant food, but knows and practices the
art of feeding for a specific purpose
whether for growth or fattening, butter
or work. lie knows also the fitness of
particular soils to particular products,
and plants accordingly.
5. The model farmer is an economist
He wastes no time. You will not find
him loafing in groceries or whittling
the dry-goods boxes of the nearest
town. His time is a part of his capital,
and he invests it so as to get the great
est profits. He is also an economist of
labor. He seeks constantly to accom
plish results with the least possible
wear and tear of muscle, and every gen
uine appliance for shortening processes
in labor finds favor with hint. Being
far from market he condenses his pro
ducts so as to transport the highest valne
In the least bulk. Consequently be
raises the best stock, keeps it in fine
condition, and cultivates the best of
fruits. Progressive Fanner.
Goon Kules. The Country Gentleman
gives editorially ten rules for farmers
which deserve to be printed in letters
of gold. Here they are, in black and
white :
1. Select good land, and reject sterile
no matter how cheap.
2. Raise no weeds, but only profita
ble crops.
3. Underdrain, wherever needed.
4. Adopt a good rotation of crops and
adhere to it.
5. I'rovide sufficient shelter for do
mestic animals.
6. Keep everything connected with
domestic animals neat and clean.
7. l'low well, cultivate well, do all
work well, and not slipshod.
8. Accumulate and save manure, and
apply it properly.
it. Procure good implements, and
take care of them.
10. liaise good animals and take care
or them.
The preceding ten rules will be of
much use if carried out, and we add
two more, to cover them all, viz. :
11. Bv weighing and measuring, and
with careful accounts, ascertaiu just
what every crop or every animal costs
you, and find out just what is the mar
ket value ot each.
12. Kmplov then those crops and ani
mals which you find give you a good
prom, ana urop au else.
You can thus have the satisfaction of
knowing that you are carrying out Ri-
caruo's two lamous rules for acquiring
weaitn namely.
1. Cut short your losses.
2. Let your profits run on.
l'lo-jiREEDixG for 1rofit. At a re
cent Stock Convention in Iowa, Ir. J
C Iraer said, in answer to a question
as to his plans In pig-raising.
To make money I would buy best
stock the very best I could get with
warranted pedigree. I would like the
largest boar of its kind, and the sows
on the same principle. She must be
long-bodied and with a rather coarse
bone; the boar not quite so lengthy,
with smaller bones. I would breed in
January, so that the pigs would be
dropped in the spring, and so as to
have them all come together, and they
will be uniform, which is a good re
commendation to stock.
Would not keep over eight sows to
gether in one inclosure, and would not
shut them up only when about to drop
the pigs; would have the inclosure well
ventilated at the top, even in the winter
should have good bedding, which
should be changed often enough to keep
dry and prevent becoming dusty.
Would feed twice per day and very reg
ularly. Always keep record of the time
of breeding my sows, so as to know
when they will have pigs, the usual
time being from 112 to 110 days.
I give cut straw for feed three or
four days previous to the dropping of
the pigs; wean the pigs when about
sixty days old ; do not breed but one
litter of pigs from a sow in a year;
keep my breeding sows in rather thin
flesh, and in good healthy condition ;
give them plenty of cinders and stone
coal ashes; think coal ashes better than
wood ashes. Ei
Starting Strawberries. There is
not much danger of making land too
rich for strawberries, especially if it
has been cropped for several years pre
vious. Twenty-five tons of stable ma
nure, ought to be a good dressing for
an acre of sod turned under in the Fall
and the 50 tons you have on hand will
probably be suflicieut for the two acres.
If the plants do not grow as rapidly as
desired, then add ashes, or ground bone
as a top dressing, as this is the best way
to apply these materials. A dressing
of lime and ashes might be applied with
benefit this Spring, after the first plow
ing, say 20 bushels per acre of the first
and five of the latter. These will aid
in the decomposition of the vegetable
matter in the soil, but add very little in
the way of a fertilizer. But the ashes
and ground bone may be applied with
benefit, and at any time of year; but
just after the fruit is gathered in Sr ai
mer will give the plants a vigorous
start in the Fall. The hoeing or culti
vating will mix these materials into
the soil deep enough to reach the roots,
and do more gdod than to be plowed
under deeply. A ton of either will not
be too heavy a dressing, if worked in
with a hoe or cultivator. If applied
just before a good shower, there will be
no danger of injuring the leaves of the
plants.
Coal Ashes for Pear Trees. Coal
ashes have a wonderful effect upon Dear
trees, especially those growing in light
soil. Our ashes of last wjnter were used
around trees in liberal Quantities, and
those thus treated have outgrown any
thing in the orchard. Some that were
even sickly, and apparently ready to
give up their hold on life, have been
restored to perfect health by these rem-
euies. reiuntuia etc.
Cows and Calves. As the feed falls
off, two quarts of corn-meal a day will
help to keep up the quantity and rich
ness of the milk. Calves and yearlings
snouia not oe allowed to rail off in con
dition at this season.

l xairxd Books. A writer in the
Country Gentleman says: "I pass some
houses in every town whose windows
might as well be sealed In with the
walls for any purpose they have but to

summer the flies strav iu. or. if ther

naaits sucn a cnamoer when i see him
in the etreet there is such a smell
about his clothing I always wish for a

boiled vegetables, especially cabbages
ana onions, which, as the weeks go oy,
literally reek in their hiding places.
The very garments of the children tell
the same story of uncleanliness. It is
bad to have unwashed clothes, but there
may be au excuse for it. But what ex
cuse can there be for unaired ones,
when air is cheap and free ? There is
death in such unaired chambers. Better
a swarm of flies or cloud of dust; better
frost and snow in the room, than these
intolerable smells. Ibe nret thing in

Punch Jelly. Take two calves' feet
and chop them into convenient pieces
and put them Into rather more than
two quarts of water, set the saucepan
on the fire; directly the water boils
throw it away and wash the pieces care
fully, then put them on again In two
quarts of cold water, and let them boll
slowly for three hours, removing the
scum carefully during the process;
then strain the liquor into a basin, and
when quite cold and set, take off all fat
and wash the top of the Jelly with hot
water so as to get rid or every vestige or
fat. Put the jelly in a saucepan on the
fire, directly it is melted add sugar to
taste, the juice and rind of a lemon, and
the whites of three eggs whisked to a
froth. Beat up the mixture till it boils.
Place the tliin rind of a lemon at the
bottom of a jelly bag, and pour the mix
ture over it, The bag should have been
previously been rinsed in boiling water;
and the first half-pint of the mixture
that comes through must be returned to
the bag. If the jelly does not come out
quite clear, the operation of straining
must be repeat!; add sufficient rum to
the clarified jelly to flavor it well, pour
into a mold and place upon ice to set.
At the time of serving, dip the mould in
hot water and turn out the jelly.
Wedding Cake. One pound of butter.
one pound of sugar, nine eggs, one
pound of flour, three pounds of clean
currants, two pounds of stoned raisins,
one-half teacup of wine or brandy, from
one-half to three-quarters pound of
citron, one grated nutmeg, some mace
and cinnamon. Rub the butter and
sugar together; when light, add first
the yolks then the whites of the eggs
the yolks and whites of the eggs to be
beaten separately then put in nearly
all your flour, keeping out just enough
to dust your raisins and cement them ;
cut your citron in such slices as you
like, and put in as you put the cake in
the pan ; after mixing your fruit in the
cake grease a four-quart pan carefully,
line it with clean straw paper, a little
grease (butter) on the paper; put your
cake in and bake, in not too quick an
oven, for it burns easily. After it is
baked take it out or the pan, paper and
all, and let it cool. The next day, to
keep it fresh and moist, put it back in
the pan, or in a tin cake-box, and keep
it tightly covered.-
Coughing. The best method of easing
a cough is to resist it with all the lorce
of will possible, until the accumulation
of phlegm becomes greater ; then there
is something to cough against, and it
come up much easier and with nan tne
couching. A great deal of hacking and
hemming and coughing in invalids is
purely nervous, or the result of mere
habit, as is shown by the frequency
with which it occurs while the patient
is thinking about it, and its comparative
rarity when be is so much engaged
that there is no time to think, or when
the attention is impelled iu another
direction.
Cobs Starch Cake. This is a simple
and digestible cake, easily and quickly
made, and generally liked. Rub well
together one cup of butter and two cups
of sugar. Add the white of six eggs
beaten to a troth. Mir in one cup oi
sweet milk, two cups of flour in which
have been thoroughly mixed two tea-
spoonsful of baking powder or two of
cream of tartar and one of soda, and
flavor with one teaspoonful of extract
of bitter almonds (or other flavor de
sired). Lastly, stir in one cup of corn
starch, which acts both as food and
shortening. Immediately bake in a
moderately quick oven.
Fricassee of Omoxs. Peel two or
three dozen of the very small, round,
white onions; sprinkle them with salt,
let them remain for half an hour, then
roll them upon a cloth to dry them
slightly, and dredge with flour; throw
them into a stewpan in which you have
melted two ounces of fresh butter, toss
them over a gentle fire for five minutes.
drain the fat from them, add a pint of
rich milk, minced lemon peel, white
pepper, salt and butter. Simmer for
ten minutes and serve in the sauce.
Floating Island. Boil with a pint
of milk a bit of cinnamon and half the
peel of a lemon ; when almost cold strain
it, and mix with it the beaten white of
one and the yolks of three eggs; stir it
over the fire till it thickens; pour it
into a dish and stir now and then till it
is cold. Whisk the whites of two eggs
and half a pint of some kind of jelly till
they are very stiff, spread over the top
of the custard, and serve.
For Smooth Hands. After washing
aud drying the hands pour into one
hand a few drops of good cider vinegar;
rub the hands together, wetting the
whole surface both sides, and dry it.
Practice this and your hands will feel
smooth and pliant. Some do not like
it, but to me it is far better than gly
cerine or ottyawuiguent.

Loaf Gingekbread. One cup of but
ter, two cups of molasses or one cup of
molasses and one cup of sugar, two eggs
well beaten, one teaspoonful of salera-
tus, one cup of milk, sweet or sour (if
sour heap your spoon with saleratus),
flour to the consistency of pound-cake.
Rte Bread. Pour boiling water on
rye meal and mix into a sun aougn,
make into squares or rolls and bake in a
hot oven. When the beginner can
manipulate the dough readily, he may
succeed in making it light in loaves,
three inches in diameter.
Raised Cake. Five cups of flour,
one of butter, one-half cup of yeast,
three cups of milk. Rub the butter
into the flour, add milk and yeast, and
set it to rise; when risen, work in the
sugar, add spice to taste; when raised,
put in with a fork one cup of floured
raisins.

Animal Phospkorescencees. Among
tne marvels which excite the aamira
ration of the student of Nature, not
the least strange is tbe group of phe
nomena, known under the name of
Animal Phosphorescence. We are so
accustomed to associate light with heat,
and to consider that tire of some kind
is necessary to its production, that the
imagination is appealed to with un
usual force when we find it proceed
ding from the body of a living animal.
Yet, it is well known that the emission
oi iigui is no an uncommon cuaracicr
isuc among the members ot the in
vertebrate divisions of the animal
kingdom. Travelers have often expa
tiated on the beauty of the scenes
which they have witnessed in the tro
pics, when the seas or forests have
seemed to be illuminated by innumer
able sparks of tire : and recent discov
eries nave shown that the luminous
quality is even more common than was
previously supposed, uanng tne area

possessed may have had its on arm in

hibits an immense variety in the forms
in which she displays her power : in
one ease, the luminosity will be visible
in a fluid secretion ; in another, it will
manifest itself through the action of a
minute and complicated organ ; one
species of animal will shine with a yet
low lia-ht: a second, with brilliant
green ; a third, with pale lilac ; and we
are acquainted with one instance in
which the light changes successively
to the chief colors of tbe solar spec
trum. Tbe causes which produce these
Dhenomena are still very obscure. Al

in which the luminous quality is pre

The Electric Lighthouse at Suth
Foreland. In the lighthouse at South
Foreland the Electric lieht is employed
and the electric current is generated
by means of large magnetic-electro
machines, which are driven Dy oeiung
connected with a steam-engine. Each
machine is composed of u helices,
mounted upon six gun-metal wheels.
each of which carries 16 helices. Be
tween these wheels are placed the
maraeta. 8 in each division, 40 of which
arecomDoaed of six layers or leaves ri
veted together, while tne it end ones
have but three leaves each. 1 ue mag
nets, which are mounted in frames, are
stationary, while the helices revolve
at the rate of 400 revolutions per min

tric machine alone, including friction.
ia fonr indicated horse-power. The
power of a magneto-electric machine
is according to the gross attractive
power of its magnets, each magnet
having a certain lifting or attractive
power expressed in pounds. In the
machines at South Foreland each of
tbe sn-plate magnets will lift 108
pounds, and each of the three-plate
magnets &i pounds, making the attrac
tive power of the magnets in one ma
chine to be 5184 pounds. The proportion
ot the uttmg power to rue weight or
mas-tiet is a good indication or its
value, and, generally speaking, a mag
net which will lift two and a half times
its own weight is a good one. Each
six-plate magnet at South Foreland
has a weisht of 431 pounds, or two-
tiftlis of 108 pounds. The machines are
connected by underirround cables with
the electric lamps placed in the lenses
of the tower. 1 he carbons used in the
lamps are ten inches long by three-
eighths of an inch square ; they are re

Wind Measurer. The anemometer
has now been improved to such a de
gree that it not only denotes changes
in tne lorce and velocity ot the wind,
but keeps a record of the same. In
this arrangement, the essential part is
a plate, having its face constantly pre
sented to the wind, bv a set of vanes at
right angles to it. The force of the
wind on the plate causes it to move an
arm carrying a pencil, which makes a
mark on a sheet of paper, especially
ruled for the purpose, hit ring separate
compartments for registering the force
and duration of the wind and a third
to show the amount of rain. Tbe paper
is slowly moved by clockwork. 1 he
pencil approaches or recedes from the
edge of the paper, as the wind varies
in lorce. while a similar pencil attach
ment to an arm, connected by a spiral
worm and nut to tbe guide vanes, re
gisters the direction of the wind in the
centre compartment. The rain gage
is attached to a bent lever, also carry
ing a pencil, which is drawn towards
the centre ot the paper as me gage be
comes tilled with water, thus indica
ting the amount of rain. ben the
((age is completely foil, it tilts, empties
itself, and the record commences afresh
the operation being simple and per
fect. A Woonsoclcet (K. 1.) inventor has
lately exhibited in public a patent "ro
tary fire extinguisher' of his contri
vance. It is described as consisting of
a hollow brass cap, with a perforated
round top, placed npon an upright two
inch iron pipe, about ten feet high,
from which extend two hollow brass
arms an inch in diameter, at right an
gles, with a slot on one side of each
arm near the end. When the water
was turned on from the hydrant the
cap and two arms revolved rapidly,
throwing from the boles in the ends
and sides a heavy, drenching spray
over an area of two hundred and twen
ty feet ; small streams spurted np at
toe same time from the top of the
sprinkler, several feet high ; the whole
apparatus discharging sufficient water,
the inventor thinks,- to instantly ex
tinguish a tire in a large room full of
combustible substances, or on tbe roof
of a large building.
A. torn Wolkenstein has
recently
made some experiments on the skin of
frogs, kittens, rabbits and mice. He
divided the skin at tbe rapper part of
the thigh, and then withdrew it over
tbe toes ; the sac thus formed was
tilled with distilled water and im
mersed in test solutions of various
salts. Tbe results obtained were as
follows : 1. The skin is permeable to
watery solutions, but not to concentra
ted solutions. 3. Increased tempera
tare augments the absorptive capacity
of the skin ; in fact, absorption stands
in direct relation to tbe temperature of
the fluid. 3. In young animals the skin
absorbs better tban in old ones. 4. The
presence of hair and wool diminishes
absorption. 5. Some alkaloids like
wise undergo absorption through tbe
skin, and toxic phenomena can be thus
induced.

some bones of animals, among which
were the cubitus of a dog belonging to
a race like the water-spaniel .some frag
ments of black earthenware not var
nished, and two bronze needles of very
beautiful workmanship, one of which
was unfortunately broken. The orna
ments consisted of various systems of
lines, engraved with the burin or cut
with the chisel. Tbe unbroken needle
is eight and a-half inches long and
coated with a layer of green carlnmate
of copper, on which was deposited a
thin layer of rusty-brown enamel, no
doubt caused by contact with ferru
ginous waters containing carbonate of
lime in solution.
The Medical Timet says that the test

in making each candidate stand with

guests, trying, with true hospitality, to
make them all feel at their ease, and
to give each one, as nearly as possible,
what he has been used to at home.
All the world is represented here.

A flight of steps at the end of the
broad walk leads np to a wide stone
terrace, and at the top of the steps you
look down on your right, into a square,
paved court, with a high pole in tbe
middle and little sleeping-rooms on
each side. Three or four fat, clumsy
bears are tumbling about on the pave
ment in rough, good-natured play,
keeping each an eye on the parapet
above to see if there is any chance for
buns ; and the minute they spy a visi
tor, it is a race which shall get to the
pole first, and then tbe lucky one
climbs up, and. drawing his fonr feet
together, plants himself on tbe ball at
the top, and stretches his head ont as
tar as DOSSIOie wuu wiue-upeu uiuuiu,
1 . ..t.lktl,. linn .air. wrKljth
somebody on the parapet holds out
temptingly over the railing. It looks
as if he could jump off tbe pole into the
midst of the visitors and gobble them
np, buns and all, if he chose-t but this
kind of bear can't jump ; he can only
climb, so it is really quite safe, and he
is obliged to wait till the bun is thrown
to him. and if tbe aim isn't good, tbe
coveted morsel falls down and is ea
gerly snatched up by the bears who sit
on their hind legs round the foot of the
pole, casting comical, imploring glan
ces at the people above. And then how
disappointed the poor ieuowon ine top
looks ; but be waits patiently for bet
ter luck, and presently somebody puts
a cake on the end of a long stick,
which is always at hand, and pokes it
saleiy across into uis great reu cavern
of a month. Bears are excessively
fond of sweets of all sorts, and in their
native woods like to steal tba honey
the wild bees have stored up in hollow
trees, though sometimes they get well
stung for their pains.
A pretty, winding path through the
shrubbery at tbe left of the terrace
brings us down aslope to the place
where the pair of white bears live.
They have a lieautiful stone house,
covered with flowering vines, and in
front a pond with a flagged path
round it, on which, as we approach,
the huge creatures are pacing up and
down, waiting for dinner, growling
savagely every now and then at tbe
visitors who stand in tantalizing near
ness, just ont of their reach. Their
whole domain bouse, garden and
pond is not only fenced in, but roofed
over with the thickest iron bars. Once,
they say, it was only fenced; but
though the toD of the fence was made
of pointed spikes pointed inward, one
of the bears got out early one morning
and nearly killed a blacksmith who
happened to cross his path ; and after
that they were roofed in. The white
bear and his wife once had two little
ones. soft, pink creatures, but the
unnatural mother actually killed her
own children, much to everybody's
disappointment. The mother bear's

lowish when he stands close to bis

seems to be generally in a tit of tbe
sulks, while he tramps about in a chro
nic state of active fury. They sutler
terribly from the beat of an English
summer, and great blocks of ice are
constantly kept in tbe pond, to make
the water cool enough for their bath
"Mamma. R'Vo is tlte Prettier.-T wo
little girls stood at their mother s knee
one day. 1 bey were twins, six years
otage. JJolly was dark and lora lair.
1 hey were very fond of each other, and
were made much of by all the house
hold. They were both very pretty
children, but were allowed to hear this
said too frequently, as it sometimes
proved, for their happiness.
The children would hear such re
marks as "I think Miss lolly much
prettier than Miss Dora; look what
lovely black eyes sue nas, and such
black, beautiful curls ! ' or, "Oh. Miss
Dora is far the prettier to my thinking :
her hair is like gold, and her eyes are1
soft and blue, and what pretty lips the
little dear has !" Who cui wonder if
the quick ears of the little sisters took
in ail that they heard, aud that it
roused a feeling of jealousy within
them for a moment t It was such an
occasion that brought them now to
their mother as an umpire to decide
the question, "Who was the prettier f
It was surely a very hard matter, as she
gazed npon the sweet eager faces wait
ing in anxiety for tbe judgment to be
pronounced.
At last she said. "Well, dears. I think
her the prettiest who thinks her sister
is, who loves to hear her beauty
praised, forgetful of herself. So if Do
ra loves to hear Dolly praised best,
and Dolly Dora, then you are both
equally pretty ; but the desire to be
thought pretty will soon make my dear
little girls very ugly and very unlov
able." They never forgot this lesson, and as
they grew outer became more and
more beautiful, because of tbe unsel
fish love they bore to each other.
A aentleman out of the kindness of
his heart asked a dozen small boys to
take a walk in the field one pleasant
Summer day. But when be was ready
to return home they all began to get
weary, and he took the smallest boy on
bis back. Then they all cried to be
carried in the same way. He then re
sorted to an ingenious experiment.
I'll get horses for us all," and jumping
into a hedge he cat small wands for
ponies for the little fellows, and a great
stake as a charger for himself, which
put mettle into their little legs, and
they all rode cheerily borne.
Tale care of little things. Springs
are little things, but they are sources
of large streams ; a helm is a little
thing, bat governs the course of a ship:
a bridle-bit is a little thing, but see its
practical use and power; nails and
pegs are little things, but they hold
arge parts of buildings together. So a
word, a look, a frown, all are little
things, but they are powerful for good
or evil. Think of this, parents and
teachers, and mind the little things in
the lives and words and actions of the
children intrusted to you.
Eatina Insects. Have you heard the
shocking story that Mr. Darwin and
Mrs. treat have been telling about
certain plant-relatives of mine the
sundew and others that they actually
catch and eat insects t
Between ourselves, your Jack is ve
ry much concerned about this, and I
intend to ask the rice-birds who are
well acquainted in North Carolina,
where that naughty plant lives what
they know about it. The proofs are
very complete, te be sure ; but we'll
see what tbe birds say. St. A'kholas.
What the Micrsep Kevcala.
Lcewenhoeck tells us of an insect
seen with the microscope, of which
twenty-seven millions would only equal
a mite.
Insects of various kinds may be seen
in the cavities of a grain of sand.
Would is a forest of beauti.ul trees,
with the branches, leaves and fruit.
. Butterflies are fully feathered.
Hairs are hollow tubes.
The surface of our bodies is covered
with scales like a fish ; a single grain of
sand would cover a hundred aud fifty
of these scales, and yet a scale covers
five hundred pores. Through these
narrow openings the perspiration forces
Itself like water through a sieve.
Each drop of stagnant water centalns
a world of living creatures, swimming
with as much liberty as whales in the
sea.
Each leaf has a colony of insects gra
zing on it, like cows on a meadow.

To all. particularly Invalids, spring
is a trying season. Indications of sick
ness should at once be attended to. Fa
tal diseases msy be caused by allowing
the bowels to become constipated, and
the system to remain in a disordered
condition, nntll the disorder has time to
develop itself. An ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure, is an old and
truthful saying. Therefore, we advise
all who are troubled with the com
plaints now very prevalent headache,
indigestion, disordered liver, want of
appetite, nausea, or feverish skin, to
take, without delay, Schenck's Man
drake Pills. We know of no remedy so
harmless and decisive in its action, it
at once strikes at the root of the disease
and produces a healthy tone to the sys
tem. People never need suffer from
asy disease arising from a disordered
condition of the liver if they would take
this excellent medicine when they feel
the first indications of the malady. 1 a
milies leaving home for the summer
months should take three or four boxes
of these pills with them. They have an
almost instantaneous effect, They will
relieve the patient of headache In one or
two hours, and will rapidly cleanse the
liver of surrounding bile, and will ef
fectually prevent a bilious attack. Ihey
are sold by all druggists.

Two Important Discoveries! The dis
covery of America by Columbus, and
Dr. Pierce s Uolden Medical Discovery ;
the one opening up to mankind a new
continent, the other a fountain of health,
which is indispensable to the full en
joyment or me and its blessings, in
response to the above sentiment come
the unsolicited attestations of tens of
thousands of grateful patients, ho have
been relieved or chronic ailments
through its Instrumentality. Those
voices are limited to no one locality,
out rrom every city, village, and ham
let, in our broad domain, as well as
from other climes, and in the strange
utterances or roreign tongues, like tbe
confused murmur of many waters,
come unfeigned and hearty commenda
tions. It is, in combination with the
Pleasant Purgative Pellets, the great
depurator of the age. L nder its benign
action eruptions disappear, excessive
waste is checked, the nerves are
strengthened, and health, long ban
ished rrom the system, resumes her
reign and re-establishes her roseate
throne upon the cheek. All who have
thoroughly tested its virtues in the dis
eases for which it is recommended unite
in pronouncing it tbe great Medical
Discovery of tbe age. 21

fifteen years ago I was attacked with

at the small of my back. My digestion
became impaired, and by degrees my

then placed myself in the hands of emi

mercury and many other strong reme
dies, but I grew worse instead of better.
in the spring of liw, there appeared
upon my back and side two large ab
scesses, and at this time I was also suf

whole system became utterly prostrated

and at once experienced great relief.

every trace of my former complaints
have left me. My system has regained
its strength, my appetite has returned,

was never aDie to do more work, and
with greater ease to myself, than at this
