Having seen St. Jacobs Oil advertised in your paper, and heard of some most astonishing cures I sent to Rockport for a bottle of the Oil, and used it according to directions. The relief I felt was almost "electric." I got better at once, and now there is not a trace of Rheumatism left in my body. An urgent appeal cames from Ooroomiab, Persia, for relief to the starving.

WILSON MILLER <fc BRO. —The North Washington commu nication will appear next week, being crowded out this week. Agricultural statistics show that in the last 45 years the production of wheat and barley here has doubled ; that of corn, cotton and tobacco more than doubled ; potatoes nearly doubled; hay increased more than one-third and oats about 140,000,000 bushels. The vast increase in cereals is mainly due to the rapid development of the Wes tern and Northwestern States. Dur ing the present generation the corn center has been transferred from the South to the West, and the wheat cen ter from the Middle States to the Far West. From 1870 to 1878 the pro duction of tobacco increased 100,000,- 000 pounds, mainly in the South; while Texas and Arkansas have been the chief contributors to the increase of nearly two and a quarter million pounds of cotton in the same time. In the former 157,000,000 were raised in 1870, and 500,000,000 in 1878; in the latter, 111,000,000 pounds in 1870, and 318,000,000 in 1878. All Outstaudluff School War* rail Is to be Paid.

We know very well that it is a fearful disease and will eat away until it destroys life, that is if it is neglected, but if it is attended to when it first makes its appearance, or soon after, there is no trouble in eradicating it i from the system. Persons will have to lie here during part of the treatment, consequently j; there is no use writing to me for information l f whether it can be cured without my seeing the t case. I also treat with success, Rupture, Piles, Fistula, Ulcers, Ulcerated legs, Varicose Veins, r Varicocele Tumors, Hydrocele, and every form ' of Skin Disease.

Dont do anything ao ridiculous as to buy the Soap unleas you Intend following them. ' MftlOO positively forfeited, if it ityfurts tHe clothes, or tcUl not do everything claimed. First put the white clothes in a tub of water, only made warm enough to be comfortabla for the hands. Then take one piece out at a time on the wash-board, rub the Soap lightly over it, roll it up and put it back into the same tub, and so on with each piece until all have the Soap rubbed on them. Then go away and let them soak at least twenty minute». without touching them, when the dirt will all be loosened, and a very little rubbing on the wash-board, out of that one suds, will make them perfectly clean, being particular to ' turn each piece while washing so as to get at the seams. Then wash lightly on the wash board through a lukewarm rinse-water (without any Soap,) ao aa to get the dirty «uda out- Then put through blue-water, and on the line, vnthout scalding or boiling a tingle piece. Afterward put flannels and colored pieoes to soak, and wash them exactly the same way. It is important not to heat the wash-water in a tin, brass or copper kettle. A tea-kettle will heat enough water for a large wash with thia Soap. Just Think What You will Save by this Easy Way of Washing! No Wash-boiler 1 No Steam! No Smell of Suds through the House I It has the remarkable Property of keeping the Dish-Cloth, Wash-Rag and Sponge always Sweet, and of Washing Freely in Hard Water.
