I sent to Rockport for a bottle of the Oil, and

takes of nothing but water and is said
to be getting fat on it. It may seem

is nothing wonderful about it. Water
has done a great deal of fattening in
its time. A well salted ox on his way
to the butcher will increase his weight
many pounds by drinking a few gal
lons of water. Corporations of all
sorts and everywhere, but particularly
in the United States, have greatly in

ment of what is known as "fiction,"
and of its being the forerunner of what
was afterwards developed in 'truth'and
science, was new to us and we think
to many, and in its discussion the Doc
tor showed both great reading and
thought. The venerable'and healthy
appearance of the Doctor added interest
to his well rounded senteuces, and his
friends here greeted him very cordially,

relation of 'truth to fiction,' and how
the one is really stranger than the

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.

M&RK THESE FACTS
HOLLOW AY'S PILLS. |
Exercise your Judgment.—A newer and better
philosophy.—To pull down all absurd and anti
quated notions of diseases and its cures, and to
establish a rational system on the ruins, has been
the chief endeavor of Or. Hoiloway through life.
Hence the origin of his celebratdd rills and Oint
ment—remedies in keeping with common sense,
because subservient to nature, rather than at
variance with her laws, like those in general use.
To the stomach we trace dyspepsia, heapaclie and
general debilltv ; t?> the liver, bile, jaundice, and
yellow fever ; to the bowels, diarrhoea, dysentary.
constipation, piles and Astuly ; to the lunns, con
sumption. etc.; to the blood, scrofula, scurvey,
and all cutaneous eruptions. By keeping these
organs and vital fluid pure and healthy we may
safely defy the attacks of disease, and no medicine
yet prepared for this purpose can equal the action
of these Pills and Ointment, as they dive to the
scat of the disorder, and extirpating its cause, de
stroy its effect.
IMPORTANT CAUTION.— None arc genuine un
less the signature of J. HAYPOCK, as agent for the
United Slates, surrounds each box of Pills and
Ointment. Boxes at 25 cents, <52 ceuts and $1 each.
tafThere Is considerable saving by taking the
larger sizes. HOLLOWAV & Co., New York.

his own Doctor. It may be rubbed into the sys

THROAT, STOMACH, LIVER, SPINE, or other
parts. It is an infallible Remedy for BAD LEGS,
BAD BREASTS. Contracted OJ Stiff Joints, GOUT,

I CANCER.
This disease like many others is regarded
as incurable. It is not so. If it is taken in
time it is as easily cured as a wart or a corn.
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.

The foUowin* are the DirecUons tor llae. ao simple that a clilld can understand them.
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.
