    The Connecticut Senatorshlp.
The Democratic members of the Con
necticut Ijpihlature met in caucus yester
day to agree upon a candidate for the
United States Senate They having a
clear majority in that body, the nomina
tion was equivalent to an election. There
were three candidates and only one ballot.
The trumvirate consisted of William W.
Eaton, William A. Barnum and Gov. In
persoll. The real contest lay between the
first and the second. Congressman Bar
num was pupposed to be the coming man,
but he received only forty six rotes to
ninety-one for Eaton, who was therefore de
clared the unanimous choice of the caucus
The f election was an eminently fit one.
The Senator whom Eaton will succeed is
Mr. Buckingham, better known as Gov.
Buckingham. From 1858 to 1SUG the lat
ter was the head of the State
Government, and he ranks with the
other great "war Governors," An
drew, Yares, Morton and Curtin. He
was placed in the Senatorial chair
as a reward for his services to the coun
try in suppressing rebellion. During the
same peril Mr. Eaton was the leader of
the Democracy. His copperheadism was
intense and extreme. He made no con
cealment of his undivided sympathy with
the South. He openly espoused tfie retel
cause and denounced the Union soldiers
of his own State as hirelings and cut
throats. Many in his own party regretted
his course ana tried to curb his tongue,
both (or his own good and the good ot
his party. And yet, as soon as the party
comes into full power in that State he is
honored with the highest office within its
gift. During the campaign he took a
back seat. The reason is obvious. There
were a gwd mny Republican soreheads
'and malcontents who wanted to form a
new party, but would not have trained
under " Bill" Eaton, as he is familiarly
called.
The new-party faction can no longer
claim the Connecticut election as their
triumph. It was rather their capture.
The Democrats sought and won their
alliance by a pretended new departure,
and then on the very first opportunity
went back to " the Democracy as it was "
It has bven so in every instance, and will
continue to be so until the end. There
are only two parties in the country, and
so long as the Democratic organization
exists there can In? no third party. By
whatever name called, the anti-Republican
forces will be under the control of t tie
Democrats. It would be idle to expect
anything else in any State. The choice
of Eaton f r United States Senator should
serve as a warning, and cannot fail to
have a very wholesome general influence.
Some men are 60 constituted that nov
elty attracts them, and the " tried and
true" is to them the "trite and stale." To
that class a new party name commends
itself. No doubt there are a good many
citizens of Illinois who would prefer a
new party if only they could feel assured
that it would nor. be the Democracy under
a new title. " There's the rub." The de
feat of the Republican party would be the
triumph of the old enemy of the party,
and the victors would shower their hon
ors upon the very men who had been most
conspicuous in war times, when to be the
enemy of the Republican party was to
oppose the perpetuation of the Union.
There m no sense in blinking the issue.
What has proved true in Connecticut
would prove true in Illinois or any other
Statu. The caucus which nominated
Eiton yesterday deserves the thanks ot
the R-publicdu party for showing up the
true nature of the new-party movement.

A Heroine of the War.
" In the Treasury Department," says a
Washington correspondent, " is a heroine
who was one of the few loyal inhabitants
of Richmond when the days were darkest
for Northern people. The horrors of
Libby prison were unmitigated, and
every ffrt to relieve the wretched vic
tims exposed the helpers to equal hard
ships. Notwithstanding this vigilance
four of ihe prisoners by some chance
managed to partially excavate a passage
for escape, when suspicion was aroused
and their plan threatened with discovery.
The inevitable consequence would be
death, of course. Even if they could have
got out of the prison their condition
would not have been much better, lor
they w ere utter strangers to the country.
In this extremity the news of her com
patriots' peril was brought to this brave
woman. She sent word to them that if
they c uld get ou side the walls by the
earliest dawu the following day she would
guide them safely. They worked, you
may be sure. Poor creatures, it was for
" life itself they were trying, and in the
faint gray, cold morning liht their eyes
fell upon a tall, handsome market-woman,
who .-ignaled them to follow her. They
did. Sue walked boldly along the high
way with her basket of vegetables on her
head, they creeping stealthily through
the brambles in the wood that skirted
the road. And so s-he guided them twelve
miles remember they were men whom
she never saw before, and to serve them
she was abandoning her husband and her
home, for there was no going back into
Richmond after that. They all reached
the Union line safely, and subsequently
105 more escaped by that same subter
ranean passage. Her husband rejoined
her shortly ; the men she never has heard
of again, nor would she know them if she
did. They never saw her face, nor she
thtirs."
A-JIan-Eatin Tree.
dead green in color, had in appearance
the massive strength of oak fiber.
The apex of the cone was a round,
white, concave figure, like a small plate
set within a larger one. This was not a
flower but a receptacle, and there exuded
into it a clear, treacly liquid, honey -sweet,
and possessed of violent intoxicating and
soporific properties. From underneath
the rim (so to speak) of the undermost
plate a series of long, hairy, green ten
drils stretched out in every direction to
ward the horizon. These were seven or
eight feet long each, and tapered from
four inches to a half inch in diameter, yet
they stretched out stitlly as iron rods.
Above these (from between the upper and
under cup) six white, almost transparent,
palpi reared themselves toward the sky,
twirling and twisting with marvelous, in
cessant motion, yet constantly reaching
upward. Thin as reeds, and frail as quills,
apparently, they were yet five or six feet
tall, and were so constantly and vigorous
ly in motion, with such a subtle, sinuous,
silent throbbing against the air, that they
made me shudder in spite of myself with
their suggestion of serpents flayed yet
dancing on their tails.
Here were not corolla, pistils, stamens,
a flower, mind you, nor nothing like it.
For Crinoida, unknown, new species as
it is, is nighest akin to the cycadactte,
and perhaps its exact prototype may be
found among the fossil cycauie, though I
confess I do not remember any one that
presents all its peculiar features. The
description I am giving jou now is partly
made up from a subsequent careful in
spection of the plant. My observations
on this occasion were suddenly inter
rupted by the natives, who had been
shrieking around the tree in their shrill
voices, and chanting what Henrick told
me were propitiatory hymns to the great
tree-devil.
With still wilder shrieks and chants
they now surrounded one ol the women,
and urged her with the points of their
javelins until slowly, and with despairing
lace, she climbed up the rough stalk 01
the tiee, and stood on the summit of the
cone, the palpi twining all about her.
"Tsik! tsik!" ("drink! drink !") cried the
men, and, stooping, she drank of the vis
cid fluid in the cup, rising instantly
again with wild frenzy in her face and
convulsive cholra in Ler limbs. But she
did not jump down, as tie seemed to in
tend to do. Oh, no! The atrocious can
nibal tree that had been so inert and dead
came to sudden savage life. The slender,
delicate palpi, with the fury of starved
serpents, quivered a moment over her
head, then, as if instinct with demoniac'
intelligence, fastened upon her in sudden
coils round and round her neck and
arms; then, while her awful screams and
yet more awtul laughter rose wilder, to
be instantly strangled down again into a
gurgling moan, the tendrils, one atter
another, like great green serpents, with
brutal energy and infernal rapidity rose,
retracted themselves, and wrapped her
about in fold after fold, ever tightening,
with the cruel swiftness and sav
age tenacity of anacondas fastening upon
their prey. It was the barbarity of the
Laocoon without its beauty this strange,
horrible murder. And now the great
leaves rose slowly and stiffly like the ai ms
of a derrick, erected themselves in the
air, approached one another and closed
about ihe dead and hampered victim with
the silent force of a hydraulic press and
the ruthless purpose of a thumb-screw.
A moment more and, while I could see
the bases ot these great levers pressing
more tightly toward eich other, from
their inters-tices there trickled down the
stalk of the tree great streams of the vis
cid, honey-like fluid, mingled horribly
with the blood and oozing viscera of the
victim. At the sight of this the savage
hordes around me, yelling madly, bound
ed forward, crowded to the tree, clasped
it, and with cups, leaves, hands and
tongues got each one enough of the
liquor to send him mad and frantic. Tntn
ensued a grotesque and undescribably
hideous orgie, from which, even while its
convulsive madness was turning readily
into delirium and insensibility, Henrick
dragged me hurriedly away into lue re
cesses of the forest, hiding me trom the
dangerous brutes and the brutes from me.
May I never see such a sight again!
In the course of my stay in the yalley
of twenty-one days, 1 saw six other speci
mens of the Crinoida Dajeeana, but none
so large as this which the Mkodos wor
shiped. I discovered that they are un
questionably carnivorous, in the same
sense that dionsea and drosera are insect
ivorous. The retracted leaves of the great
tree kept their upright position during
ten days, then, when 1 came again one
morniug, they were prone again, the ten
drils stretched, the palpi . floating, and
not ting but a white skull at the toot of
the tree to remind me of the sacrifice hat
had taken place there. I climbed into a
neighboring tree and saw that all trace of
the victim had disappeared and the cup
was again supplied with the viscid fluid.
The indescribable rapidity and energy
of its movements may be inferred from
the fact that I saw a smaller one seize,
capture and destroy an active little lemur
which, dropping by accident upon it
while watching and grinning at me, in
vain endeavored to escape from the fatal
toils.
With Henrick's assistance and the con
sent of some of the head men of the
Mkodos (who, however, did not dare stay
to witness the act of sacrilege), I cut
down one of the minor trees and dissect
ed it carefully. Seid, however, is wailing
tor me, and l must deter to my next the
details of this most interesting examina
tion.
Thb New York World publishes the
following unique production, said to have
been condensed from a Carlsruhe maga
zine. The extract purports to be from a
letter written by one Karl Leche, a trav
eler in Madagascar. The writer says:
At the bottom of the valley (I had no
barometer, but should think it not over
400 feet above the level of the sea) and
near its eastern extremity we came to a
deep, tarn-like lake, about a mile in di m
etr, the sluggish, oily waters of which
overflow into a tortuous, reedy canal that
went unwillingly into the recesses of a
black forest, jungle below, palm above
This lake was filled with alligators, and
its jungled borders were the home of the
chetah and a variety of venomous serpents.
Great ferns bent over its margin, and its
surface was spotted with leaves and flow
ers of the lotus. A path, diverging from
its southern side, struck boldly for the
heart of the forbidding -and seemingly
impenetrable forest. Henrick led the way
along this path, I following closely, and
behind me a curious rabble of Mkodos,
men, women and children. After we were
fairly in the forest the shade overhead
was so dense that the jungle and under
growth almost disappeared and instead
there was a damp, boggy turf, cold,
spongy, and yielding to the tread. The
stalks of the tall trees rose like columns,
the vines hanging down from them in
festoons, and their roots running over the
ground in every direction made walking
difficult.
Suddenly all the natives began to cry,
"Tepe! Tepe!" and Henrick, stopping
short, said, "Look!" The sluegish,
canal-like stream here wound slowly by,
and in a rare spot in ts bend was the
most singular of trees. I have called it
Crinoida, because when its leaves are in
action it bears a striking resemblance to
that well-known fossil, the crinold lily
stone, or St. Cuthhert's head. It was now
at rest, however, and I will try to describe
it to you. If you can imagine a pine-ap-
pie eigni leet nign ana tnicK in propor
tion resting upon its base and denuded of
leaves, you will have a good idea of the
trunk of the tree, which, however, was
not the color of an anana, but a dark,
dingy brown, and apparently bard as iron
From the apex of this truncated cone (at
J east two feet in diameter) eight leaves
hung sheer to the ground, like doors
swung back on their hinges. Theseleaves,
which were joined to the top of the tree
at regular intervals, were about eleven or
twelve leet long, ana snapea very much
like the leaves of the American aguave,
or centurv clant They were two feet
throntrh in their thickest part, and three
feet wide, tapering to a sharp point that
looked like a cow's horn, very convex on
the outer (but now under) surface, and on
the inner (now upper) surface slightly
concave. This concave face was thickly
6et with very strong, thorny hooks, like
thoa nnnn th head of the teazle. These
leaves, hanging thus limp and Ifeless;
The Feet.
There are no parts of the human body
that need more assiduous attention than
the feet. If the eyes, cars, lungs or other
more delicate organs become deranged,
they give warning by ailment. It is
OLherwise with the feet. They may be
neglected, or even abused, without any
bad consequences being immediately lelt
But then, though not immediately felt,
they will to a certainty be eventually felt,
and lelt very sorely, too.
An excessive flow of blood to the head,
extreme liability to cold, disordered diges
Hon, and other numerous evils are the
result of inattention to the feet. The feet
should be regularly washed and wiped
every day.
Stockings should not be put on while
there is the slightest moisture on the leet
The stockings absorb the moisture and
gradually return it to the feet, thereby caus
ing the leet to teel cold and uncomforta
ble, and. what is worse, when the feet are
cold, circulation is interfered with, and
the whole system, especially the brain, is
thrown into an abnormal state.
Keep the feet clean and warm, the head
cool and the bowels open, and then it
makes no difference to you whether the
physician be skillful or not. If you wish
to preserve jour whole system in good
working order, be sure and attend to y our
leet
Let all our readers profit by these re
marks and they will soon feel by experi
ence that we are not exaggerating the
consequences of proper attention to the
leet. Jzclcange.
How a Dumb Man Recovered Ills Voice.
The Springfield Republican tells a curi
ous story of the way in which B. A.
Leonard, a dumb man in Southbridge,
Mass., recently recovered his voice, which
be lost about a year ago, atter an attack
of cerebro-spinal meningitis. A few
mornings ago be was awakened about
four o'clock by a sense of oppression and
faintness. He became conscious enough
to understand that gas was escaping from
a coal stove and that he would soon die
unless he could get to fresh air; so, after
many talis and tumbles, he gained the
outside door, when he fainted, but was
soon aroused by the lapping and tugging
of a faithful Newfoundland do- Then
the thought came to him that his wife
and child were in the house, and, though
he had not spoken for months, he called
loudly for help; his cries, united with
the howls of the dog, soon roused a
neighbor, to whom he told his
troubles, and again fainted and was in
sensible for two hours. On recovering
he was unable to talk, but the doctor, on
hearing the case, ordered him to visit tha
gas house and breathe the air in the
purifying room. After spending an hour
and a half there he could talk in a
whisper, and has since steadily regained
the perfect use of his voice.

Leaking teats have been closed by the
application of collodion to the teat imme
diately after milking. To apply it wipe
the teat perfectly dry and with a small
brush or camel s hair pencil paint the end
ot the teat over with three or four coats
of the collodion. It dries instantly, and.
contracting as it dries, closes the orifice.
Collodion is gun cotton dissolved in
ether.
The following is said to be one of the
best applications in cases of burns or
scalds, more especially where a large sur
face is denuded of the skin: Take one
dram of finely-powdered alum and mix
thoroughly with the whites of two eggs
and one teacup ot fresh lard ; spread on
a cloth and apply to the parts burnt. It
gives almost instant relief from pain, and
by excluding the air prevents inflamma
tory action. The application should be
changed at least once a day.
Save Your Own Seed.
Every intelligent tiller of the soil will
admit that " whatsoever a man soweth
that shall he also reap." If one sows or
plants inferior seed he cannot expect a
bountiful crop of either roots or grain
Small and half-matured kernels of wheat,
oats, rye and corn cannot be expected to
yield large panicles and ears filled with
plump and heavy kernels. If one plants
the seeds of carrots, parsnips, turnips and
cabbage which grew in the small pods
and the half-matured panicles on the slen
der stems, he cannot produce large roots,
even if the soil has been brought to an
excellent state ef f ertility.
This suggests the great importance of
raising seed of the choicest quality. It
will cost no more to raise one thousand
bushels of beets or turnips, per acre, than
three hundred, if plump and heavy seed
has been properly saved.
In order to produce large, heavy seed
of garden vegetables, select a few large
carrots, a few turnips, parsnips and beets,
and plant them in rich soil early in the
growing season. They should be planted
about thirty inches apart, that the tops
may have ample room to spread. When
the blossoms begin to appear, clip off all
the small side branches, leaving only four
or five central stocks, which will yield
seed of much better quality than one can
usually purchase. Every kernel of such
seed, when planted, will produce a large
root. Turnips and carrots may grow in
close proximity ; but turnips and carrots
designed for seed should be transplanted
several rods apart. One cabbage will
yield as much seed as one family will
care to plant, unless a crop is grown for
market. A superb head should be trans
planted as it grew. The top of the head
shou. ' le cut open, so that sprouts or
seed-stalk may readily spring up through
the center.
As soon a3 the panicles of carrots and
parsnips begin to turn brown, and when
the pods of cabbage and turnips begin to
lose their green color, let the stalks be
cut oft close to the ground and hung up
in some out-building. When the pods,
leaves and stems are quite dry, let them
be spread on a clean floor, or on a large
blanket, and the seed threshed off either
with a flail or by crushing the pods with
one's feet.
In order to have large and early toma
toes, the first ripe fruit should be allowed
to hang to the vines until the seeds are
fully matured. By selecting 6eed in this
manner for a few years tomatoes will
come to maturity much earlier than in
the ordinary way, and every etalk will be
loaded with fruit.
The melon, Equasb, cucumber and
pumpkin that ripen first should be al
lowed to hang to the vines until the stems
are quite dry; then, when they begin to
decay, remove the seeds, spread them on
a board or canvas to dry. The vitality of
such seeds is frequently destroyed by too
much solar heat, or by being scorched be
neath the kitchen stove.
Flowers will be maturing their seeds
at different periods through the entire
growing season. The seeds of sorre flow
ers will ripen in June, while others will
not ripen till September or October. It
will require but a few minutes to attend
to the cultivation and gathering of all the
seeds one may need, if he will attend to
the little matter at the proper time. N.

Facts About Farmers.
The report of the Massachusetts Board
of Health for this year contains a valua
ble paper on the farmers of that State. It
makes the surprising statement that the
"value of farm-products is greater,
both per farm and per acre, in Massachu
setts" than in New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Illinois, Michigan or Minnesota.
The nearness of the farm to the market is
the reason for this remarkable fact. The
census returns of 1370 prove it. This is
not the only blessing of these lucky Down
East agriculturists. Like their brethren
ot the Augustan age, they would be " too
happy did they but know their own good
fortune." They live, on an average, C5. 13
years, which is 14 11) years beyond the
average. They might five even longer if
they cared to. The Massachusetts doc
tors or forty -six of them have answered
the question, " What causes tend to in
jure the health of the farmers and their
families?" as follows: "Overwork," 26;
"improper diet," 22; "exposure," 18;
"sanitary defects," 10; "want of ventila
tion,"?; " overwork among women," 6;
"want of recreation," 5; "indoor life of
women," 3; "ignorance of hygienic
laws," 3; "anxiety," 3; "irregularity
of work," 3; "neglect of bathing," 2;
" damp cellars," 2. Most of these
causes of death could be removed by care
and common sense. As the Ration says,
they might all be summed up under the
phrase " not knowing how to live." The
fact suggests one great defect in all our
schools. They could teach the laws of
health. No man who had once seen the
simple experiments that show the deadly
influence of impure air upon life would
build his home on the model of an air
tight stove. No one who knew how de
fective drainage saturates a house with
poison would be content to live above
broken drains and leaking sewers much
less above a dead flat surface, unpierced
by any drain whatever, into which the
refuse of the house slowly soaks. The
man who has studied hygiene will be
slow to load his stomach with fat pork,
and hot, lumpy bread, and nondescript
masses fished out of the hissing grease of
the frying-pan. By shunning the horrors
of bad air, bad water, bad food, the Amer
ican farmer may develop into a modern
Methusaleh. When that time comes, his
wife, who is now the chief raw material
for our lunatic asylums, may possibly
exist a long time before death or insanity
puts an end to the grind of overwork that
makes up her whole life. Chicago Tribune.
Making Cake.
Use none but the best materials for
making cake. If you cannot afford to
get good floor, dry white sugM and the
best family butter, make up your mind to
go without your cake and eat plain bread
with a clear conscience.
There are no intermediate degrees of
quality in eggs. I believe I have said
that somewhere else, but it ought to be
repeated just here. They should be like
Lsesar's wife, above suspicion. A tin wisp
or whip is best for beating them. All
cakes are better for having the whites
and jokes beaten separately. Beat the
former in a larga shallow dish until you
can cut throutrh the froth with a knife.
leaving as clear and distinct an incision
as you would in a solid substance. Beat
the yolks in an earthen bowl until they
cease to troth, and thicken as it mixed
with flour. Have the dishes cool not
too cold. It is hard to whip whites stiff
In a warm room.
Stir the butter and sugar to a cream.
Cakes often fall because this rule is not
followed. Beat these as faithfully as you
do the eggs, warming the butter very
slightly if hard. Use only a silver or
wooden spoon in this as in other parts of
your work. I have heard of silver egg
whips, but they are not likely to come in
to general use except where the mistress
makes all the cake, pudding, etc.
Do not use fresh and ttale milk in the
same cake. It acts as disastrously as a
piece of old cloth in a new garment. Sour
milk makes a spongy cake; sweet, one
closer in grain.
Study the moods and tenses of your
oven carefully before essaying a load of
cake. Confine your early efforts to tea
cake and the like. Jelly cake baked in
shallow tins is good practice during the
novitiate. Keep the heat steady, and as
good at bottom as top.
Streaks in cake are caused by unskill
ful mixing, too rapid or unequal baking,
a sudden decrease in heat before the cake
is quite done.
Don't delude yourself, and maltreat
those who are to eat your cake, by trying
to make soda do the whole or most of the
duty of eggs. Others have tried it before,
with unfortunate results. If curiosity
tempt you to the experiment, you had
better allay it by buying some sponge
cake at the corner bakery.
Test whether a cake is done by running
a clean straw into the thickest part. It
should come up clean.
Do not leave the oven door open, or
change the cake from one oven to the
other, except in extreme cases. If it
harden too fast on the top, cover with
paper. It should rise to full height be
fore the crust forms.
Except for gingerbread, use none but
white sugar.
Always sift the flour.
Be accurate in your weights and meas
ures.
There is no short road to good, fortune
in cake making. What is worth doing
at all is worth doing well. There is no
disgrace in not having time to mix and
bake a cake, but you may well be ashamed
of yourself if you are too lazy, or care
less, or hurried to beat your eggs, cream
your butter and sugar, or measure your
ingredients.
Cream your sugar and butter, measure
milk, spice, etc., before beginning work.
For fruit cake it is best to prepare the
materials the day before. Let your icing
dry thoroughly before wrapping up the
cake, and sift your flour before measuring.

them to a pulp, being careful to use a

put in the same quantity of yeast you
would use for common bread and as much
water as will make it a fine, smooth
dough ; put it into a pan and place it in

Don't Tamper with a C jld. Perhaps In
the whole category of diseases to which hu
manity is susceptible, the cough is most neg
lected in its early stage. A simple cough is
generally regarded as a temporary affliction
unpleasant and nothing more; but to those
who have paid dearly for experience, it is the
signal for attack for the most fearful of all
diseases Consumption. A cough will lead to
consumption if not checked so sure as the
rivulet leads to the river, yet it is an easy ene
my to thwart, if met by the proper remedy.
Allen's Lung Balsam is the great cough rem
edy of the age, and it has earned its reputation
by merit alone. Sold by all good druggists.
Probably no one disease is the cause of so

people, a he remedy is simple ana effectual.

Liver and Blood Diseases.
BY R. V. PIERCE, M. D.
A healthy liver secretes each day about two
and a half pounds of bile, which contains a
great amount of waste material taken from
the blood. When the liver becomes torpid or
congested it fails to eliminate this vast
anount of noxious substance, which,, there
fore, remains to poison the blood and be con
veyed to every part of the system. What
mut be the condition of the blood when it is
receiving and retaining each day two and a
half pounds of poison? .Nature tries to work
off this poison through other channels and
organs the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc. but
these organs bocoine overtaxed in performing
this labor in addition to their natural
functions, and cannot long withstand the press
ure, but become variously diseased.
The brain, which is the great electrical cen
ter of all vitality, is unduly stimulated by the
unhealthy blood which passes to it from the
heart, and it fails to perform its office health
fully. Hence the symptoms ol bile poisoning,
which are dullness, headache, incapacity to
keep the mind on auy subject, impairment of
memory, dizzy, sleepy or nervous feelings,
gloomy forebodings and irritability of temper.
The blood itself being diseased, as it forms
the sweat upon the surface of the 6kin, it is so
irritating and poisonous that it produces dis
colored brown tpots, pimples, blotches and
other eruptions, sores, boils, carbuncles and
scrofulous tumors. The stomach, bowels and
other organs cannot Cf-cupe becoming affected
sooner or later, and we have, as the reult
costiveness, piles, dropsy, dyspepsia, diar'
rhca. Other symptoms are common, a
bitter or bad taste in mouth, internal
heat, palpitation, teasing cough, unsteady
appetite, choking sensatiou in throat, bloating
in stomach, paiu in sides or about shoulders or
back, coldness of extremities, etc., etc Only
a few of the above symptoms are likely to be
present in any case at one time. The liver be
ing the great depurating or blood-cleansing
organ of the syhtein set this great " house
keeper of our health" at work, and the foul
corruptions which gender in the blood and rot
out, as it were, the machinery of life are
gradually expelled from the system. Fortius
purpose my Golden Medical Discovery with
very small doses daily of my Pleasant Purga
tive Pellets arc pre-eminently the articles need
ed. They cure every kind of humor from the
worst scrofula to the common pimple, blotch
or eruption. Great eating ulcers kindly heal
under their mighty curative influence. Viru
lent blood poisons that lurk in the system are
by them robbed of their terrors, and by their
persevering and somewhat protracted use the
most taiuted systems may be completely reno
vated and built up anew. Enlarged glands,
tumors and swellings dwindle away and dis
appear under the influence of these great re
solvents. It was an Ancient Custom of the
Spartans, in order to inculcate among
their youth an abhorrence of intemperance
and its kindred vices, to made their slaves
drunk with wine in the public market
places, so that the rising generation, upon
whom would some day devolve the honor
and safety of the Lacedemomian Republic,
might see before them all the ghastly de
tails of the drunkard's disgrace, his loss
of reason and of physical strength. 'Twere
well, perhaps, to-day, could some of our
young men contemplate a similar in
structive lesson drawn from the life,
showing them, by a sharply-drawn con
trast, the advantages and true loveliness
of abstinence and virtue.
For such as appreciate these, Vinegar
Bitters is the beverage best adapted, it
being purely a vegetable draught, devoid
of alcohol or mineral poisons, and pos
sessing all the virtues, but none of the
damning curses, of the different poisons
which year by year are sweeping away
thousands of dollars and lives. 42

by a peculiar process in the distillation of the tar, i r
which iu highest medicinal properties are rctjinej.

eminent physicians of every school. It is confidently
offered to the afflicted forthe following simple reasons;

but by dissolving the phlegm and assisting nature to
throw off the unhealthy matter causing the irritation.
In cases of teated consumption it both prolongs anJ
renders less burdensome the life of the afflicted sufferer.
a. Its healing principle acts upon the irritated stir,
face of the lungs, penetrating to each diseased art,
relieving pain, ana subduing inflammation.
