Tbe danger often attending tbe bite

bettering that all the trouble proceeded
from»the bite, wbkb was a mere
scratch* carefally examined the upper
jaws of neveral rabbits and found in
each a hollow tooth containing a fluid
■o deadly that two drops of it, admin
iatered hypodermically, caused the
death of a lamb within as hour.

THE
PHILADELPHIA
TIMES
Now stands confessedly at the head of Philadelphia journalism in
all that makes a thoroughly complete, general and family news
paper. It is more complete in its news, in its special correspon
dence in its varied contributions on all subjects of popular interest,
and in all the qualities of a newspaper for the family circle and
for the business man than any of its contemporaries, because its
facilities and resources are equal to every want of a nrst-class
national journal.
"ThP lA/PPfrlll T!TTIRS"- nearly doubled its
HID XKUUI\ILJ 1 ill! Up former large circulation
during the past year. Its contributors from week to week are among
the foremost men of the nation, and no department of news or
literature is slighted in any number on any pretext. It is adapted
as well to women as to men; hence, although its political intelli
gence is full and accurate and its political editorials free and fear
less, liberal provision is made for literary, dramatic and musical
matters, travels and adventure, fiction, poetry, fashions and the
chronicle of current social events. In all these departments the
pens of the best writers are engaged, while selections from other
journals are made with care, taste and fullness that are unsurpassed.
THE "AXKALS OF THE WAR"— chapters of unwritten history
contributed by prominent actors in the war of the rebellion, are
a valuable feature of the paper and have become a recognized
depository of such matters, whether from Northern or Southern j
sources. This department, as well as all others, will bo kept full>
up to the high standard of forme- years.
