To asceiitain if a mineral contains copper, it is only necessary to pulverize a portion of it, dissolve it in strong nitric a id (aquafortis), and dilute a portion of the clear solution, which will probably be blue, until almost colorless, then add ammonia carefully. If copper is present t lie color will become an intense blue. In another portion of the solution, some what diluted, place a piece of perfects clean polished steel or iron; in a few minutes the copper will be deposited ujxn the iron in a metallic state.

If held loosely in the hand they will not cease to try to get out at each little crevice where light enters, but no matter how long you hold them they will not sting. We believe the same will hold good with all stinging insects, that they cannot be made to stinx except in defense of their homes or their lives. Prairie Farmer. Coining. The operations conducted at the pri vate mint at Birmingham, England, as we learn from an interesting report in Iron, are as follows: The raw material consists of immense quantities of copper in ingots for bronze coinage, and "cakes" of the same metal for copper coinage. The metal used for the bronze coins is composed ot ninetj--five parts of copper, four parts of tin, and one part of spelter or zinc. The metal is first taken to the casting shop and there melted and run into molds of the required length. The processes of casting being almost the same for all purposes there is no need of giving a minute or detailed description of the operation. The strips of metal when cast are taken to the rolling mills. The slabs of metal are first passed through the heavy revolving cylinders, and the pressure is so great to which they arc subjected that they are rolled into much longer and, of course, thinner strips. They are next submitted to the ordeal of tire, and an nealed. They are submitted to this proc ess of rolling until the requisite thick ness, or rather thinness, is obtained. A slab which is at first only some fifteen inches long is rolled out to six feet in length. It is then placed once more in the annealing oven, " pickled" by being piissed through acid, then cleaned and scoured. Each slip has to be gauged with the utmost nicety after it has un dergone these processes, to ascertain whether it is of equal thickness through- UAfter being approved the strips are taken to the cut ting-out-room, where they are passed under a press, and bits of cir cular metal of the size required are cut out and dropped into receptacles be nettli These bits of plain metal are ap propriately called "blanks," and are cut with almost incredible rapidity. One rress produces 750 a minute, and m th Sunt the number of presses emploved arc capable of producing over 3,000,000 of blanks a day. After being cut the blanks are tested by being passed through a machine, which is so nicely aiflusted that any irregularity or imperfection is detected, and the tares are separated trom the wheat. The blanks which pass successfully through the trial have also to be annealed. For this purpose they are " put into small iron pots, the lids of which are carefully adjusted, and tue junctions stopped with clay, and placed in the oven, where they remain generally about three-quarters of an hour. They are then allowed to cool gradually, passed through a solution 01 acid, and in their wet condition arc placed in a revolving wooden drum, together with a quantity of routrli sawdust. The motion of the drum causes the sawdust to escape through small apertures provided for the purpose, and by the time the blanks arc dry usually in twenty min utes all discolorations have been re moved and a uniform bright color at tained. They are then ready to receive the finishing stroke the in.prcssion which shall cause them to be universally recognized as tokens of value." Two dies arc required for each coin; the one for obverse, the other for re verse. These arc engraved on the best steel, but the original dies are not used in making the impressions on the coins. For this purpose a punch is made, and from this punch the molds by which the the coins are made arc taken by press ure. The pressure required for this pur pose is at least forty tons. The molds are made on the surface of pieces of steel, the diameter of which is u little larger than the coin to be made. So great is the pressure of the striking hammer that the slightest Haw in the steel used is fatal to the working die, for it comes from under the machine ex hibiting a large rent wherever the flaw may be. The importance of this power of multiplying dies will at once be manl iest, sometimes tJiey are destroyed m a few minutes, lasting, we learned, on an average not more than two days; but the original die, which represents a fort night's skilled work, remains perfect for the production of other punches to be used in making working dies. i ne coining is a very simple process. and is now rendered almost noiseless bv iiuproved machinery. In each press is a movable steel slide, in the center of which is a circular hole the size of the die, called a collar. The blanks to be impressed are placed in a Ions: brass tube, called a feeder or hopper. From mis ieeuer one uianK drops into the collar with each movement of the slide. I lis between the ton and bottom, and us the blow is struck both sides are im pressed at once. Old Fashions. Lv England, in the time of Scvcrus. the most northern Britons were entirr-lv without clothing, and to this thev wen- hardened by use. A part, however, of the inhabitants had better covering, and were attired with skins; and after, as civility grew under the Komans, they assumed the Itoman habit. The English, at the first arrival of the Romans, used long jackets, and were shaved on the head, saving about the crown. Afterward they wore loose and large white garments, with broad lace of divers colors, as the Lombards. Some what before the Conquest they were all dressed very gay with coats to the mid knee, the head shorn, the beard shaved, their arms laden with bracelets, and their faces painted. "Whosoever will enter into this argu ment since the Conquest, his pen may have a spacious walk; but as I propos'e to be brief I will omit the royal habits of Kings at their ooronations, the mantle of St. Edward, the dalmatica with sleeves, the sacerdotal garment, their hose and sandals, as also the honorable habiliments, as robes of state, etc. Of these matters each would require a treatise. I will briefly note what I have observed more generally in 1113' little reading. Robert, eldest son to the Conqueror, used short hose, or stockings, and there upon was named Court-hose, as he showed first the use of them to the En glish. King Henry I. reprehended much of the immodesty of apparel in his days. The particulars arc not specified ; but the wearing of long hair, with locks and perukes, he abolished. King Henry II. brought in the short mantle, and he therefore had the name of Court-mantle. In his time silk was brought out of Greece into Sicily, and then into, othf r parts of Christendom. There was also a costly stuff at those times in England called by the people aurifrisium; what it was named in En glish I know not, but imagine it to sig nify embroidery with gold. "Whatsoever it was, it was much desired by the 1'opes, and highly esteemed in Italy. What the habits, both civil and mili tary, wern in the time of King John, Henry III. and the succeeding ages may better appear by their monuments, old glass windows, and ancient arms, than be found in writers of those times as also the robes (which the King then allowed to each Knight when lie was dubbed) of green or burnet. Neither is it to be doubted but successive time and English mutability brought in continual ly new cuts, as in the time of King Ed ward III., which may be understood by th 13 rh3-me, then made: I.oiijr heard, heartless, I'ni uteri hood, witlet?.", (iny coats, frracelew. Make England thriliK-s." Many statutes were made to prevent the abuses of dress; an ancient history called Kulorjium proves no less. 44 The Commons (saith he) were besotted in excess of apparel, in wide fur coats reaching to their loins, some in a garment reaching to their heels close before, and strutting out on the sides, so that on the back they make men seem women, and this they call by a ridiculous name gown. Their hoods are little, tied under the chin, and buttoned like the women, but set with gold, silver and precious stones. Their girdles are of gold and silver, some worth twenty marks. Their shoes and pattens are snouted and piked more than a finger long, crooked upward. and fastened to the knees with chains of gold and silver. And thus were they garmented who (as this author saith) were lions in the hail and hares in the field. The book of Worcester reporteih that in the year VJiVj they began to use caps of different colors, especially red, with costly linings; and in i:J7 they first began to wear a new round short garment called the cloak." Here 3-ou may see when gowns, cloaks and caps first came in use, though, doubtless, they had some such l;ke attire in different names. How strangely the3' were attired in the times of King Richard II. Chaucer w ill tell us: 44 Alas, may not a man see, as in our days, the sinlul costly array of clothing, and namely in too much super fluity of clothing, such that maketh it so dear, to the harm of the people, not only the cost of embroidering, the dis guised indenting, or barring, ounding, plaiting, winding, or bending, and sem blablc waste of cloth in vanity; but there is also the costly furring in their gowns, so much pouncing of Vhissel to' make holes, so much d igging of sheirs forche, with the superfluity in length of the aforesaid gowns trailing in the mire, on horse and also on foot, as well of man as of woman, tnat all that trailing is verily as in effect wasted, consumed, ami threadbare, rather than given to the poor." They had also, about this time, a kind of gown called a git, or jacket without sleeves; a loose cloak like a herald's coat of arms, called a tabard; short breeches called a court pie; a gorget called a chevesail, for as yet they used no bands about their neck. Queen Anne, w ife to Richard II., who first taught English women to ride on side-saddles, as before they rode astride, brought in high head attire, piked with horns, and long-trained gowns for women. Not many years after foolish pride so descended to the adorning of the foot that it was proclaimed that no man should have his shoes broader at the toes than six inches. Neither was the clergy clear from thU pride, as we may perceive from Fierce Plowman, though we are assured that the clergy never wore silk or velvet un til the time of the pompous Cardinal Wolsey, who opened that door to pride among them. The variations in our dress since that time arc too well known to be mentioned here: we shall only, therefore, conclude with observing that even in this age of lxury we have no great reason to think ourselves more absurd in point of dress than our ancestors, and that the only difference between us lies rather in the peculiarity of our fashions than the prev alence of absurdity in the other. Har per's Bazar. The Glass-Eye Trade In the United States. It is not generally known that the en tire irlass-eve business of the United States is in the hands of one firm and but few people have any idea of the immensity of their business. There is in the United States a deficit of some 60,000 eyes. Of this number about 23,000 make use of glass C3'es. To supply these4' bully - . 1 1 . . I l rxys w nu giass-cycs at least 100 speci mens of optics are manufactured. Some rich, aristocratic old gentlemen have their eyes made to order. These are manufactured by hand with great care and nicety, a certain fire and vigor being thrown into them more than realistic. V e know a Mr. Johnson who is greatly improved uy wearing one of these glass eyes. 1 lie young ladies dote on him, and say he looks like a poet, 44 his eye with such fine frenzy rolling." Such arsome of the advantages of a glass eve. The cheapest kind of eves are the light blue, ihese are sold in large quantities The poor people who cannot afford luxu nes usually wear these, whatever the color of their natural optics. When a man has a genuine black eye supple mented by one of dim, dismal blue it produces a weird effect. This strange appearance is still more heightened when the blac k eye gives evidence of a glass or so too much of whisky: its contrast with the sleepy soberness of the blue eye is apt to astonish, a stranger. several 3'ears ago this sole glass-eve estalbishment was burned out in the big fire in Pittsburgh. The sorrow, the ruin, the misery this caused can only be appre ciated by a one-eyed man. Almost all had to content themselves with second hand eyes, dim, and considerably the worse for wear and tear. A well-known merchant of New York, who was wanting in optics, dissected a doll of his daughter to procure an ej-e, so that he might appear m society decently, and a poor man in this very city, in a similar strait, made use of those large variegated crystals of which children are so lond. J lis eye ot many colors pro duced quite a sensation, and the manufacturers threw a quantity of Dolly Varden eyes on the market, but somehow thc3' did not take and become the fashion, and the cargo was an entire loss. The United States firm have almost entirely banished the French glass eye from this continent; the English eye never took well here, was never popular. They are now engaged in supplying the c111ne.se market, and liave invented a new patented aquiline e3'e just suited for the .Mongolians. 1 hev are also patentees of the strabismic glass ej-e, suitable for cross or cock-e3"ed people. With each dozen glass e3'es a copy of directions how to wear glass eyes is sent. It is to be hoped that this book will be studied, as some of our best citi zens display a disgraceful carelessness in the manner in which they wear their C3'es. lo he glaredat with an C3c upside down is apt to disturb a man: indeed, it is extremely disagreeable. JTew Orleans 1 iwyune. Ice in Iiidi.f. What possible connection can there fee between Lake Ontario and India? The one lies between the United States and Canada, where the winter cold seizes upon the rolling waves and binds them tight and fast. The other, tliousands of. miles awaj-, burns and dries under a tropical sun. But it is this very contrast that brings them together. Lake Ontario cools ami refreshes the people living on the East Indian coast. And this is the way the good work is brought about : Lake Ontario is so situated that in winter it freezes over a great part of its surface, forming ice several feet in thickness, fine grained, compact, and of beautiful transparency. As soon as the ice is iairly. lormed the ice companies set a small army ot men at work to take it away, and tbey are kept busy all the season. Some are on the lake cutting out the ice in huge cubic blocks; others stow them away in the wagons which are to convey them to the ice-houses near the lake, where they are deposited tem porarily; some are at work at these houses receiving the ice and putting it in the buildings; others, again, are taking out the ice that has been waiting for transportation, and loading with it the cars in which it is to be conve3'ed to the different cities in the United States. The scene is a lively and busy one, and this ice business gives employment to a great number of men. The ice intended for India is sent to Boston, and is there shipped as soon as possible. A good many vessels are em ployed in this service. The holds of these ships must be made rery cold be fore the ice can be packed into them with safety, and this is done by letting down blocks of ice, and as soon as these melt, the water is drawn oil" and others are put in. The second blocks do not melt quite so soon as the first, and then others arc let down; and the process is continued until the tempera ture is so low that the ice does not melt at all. The hold is now ready to be filled for the long voyage. A thick bed of saw dust is laid on the bottom and upon this blocks of ice are carefully and closely placed, forming a smooth, icy floor. This is covered with a light layer of sawdust. Upon this blocks of ice are packed as before; then another la3'er of sawdust; another stratum of ice blocks; and so on until the hold is filled. This pac king has to be done quickly or the ice would soften somewhat wrhile exposed to the air. Great cranes moved by steam lift the enormous blocks of ice from the storehouse or wharf, swing them over the vessel and lower them into the hold, w here the men stow them away. Steam works rapidly and the labor goes on da3' and night. When the hold is filled the hatches are fastened down and calked and the precious freight is safely shut up in the cold and darkness, and" the ship starts off as soon as possible on her long voyage. These vessels are built for fast sailers; but, at the best, it takes a very longtime to reach India. During part of the voyage the tropical sun pours its heat upon the decks: but when the ship gains her port and the hatches are opened and the work of unloading com mences the blocks of ice taken out are as perfect as when they were put in! The unloading once begun, it is carried on without intermission until the hold is emptied, the workmen relieving each other; but it cannot be done quite as rapidly as the loading. Some of the sailors, dressed in their warmest winter clothing, are down in the hold cutting apart the blocks which have become frozen together, placing the ropes around them, and fastening "them to the cable that passes over the pulley. Other sailors and native East Indians arc on the deck, where it is so hot that they are glad to dress very lightly. They are pulling at the ropes and in this vay hauling the ice out of the bold. Others are conveying it to the depots on the shore, where it is stored away in vast quantities. Near these may "be seen groups of natives waiting to be served with ice, which is to be carried to the hotels and other houses. Some of these natives have already been served, and have started upon their journey into the city, six or eight of them bearing a framework of bamboo sticks and cords, in which is suspended a monstrous bloc k of ice as beautiful and transparent as rock crystal. And, after all the lnlmr at Lake On tario, aftr the transportation to Boston, the loading and unloading of the vessels, the sums of money that must be paid to so many workmen, and the voyage of several thousand miles, ire can be bought in the cities of India, in ordiaary seasons, at three cents a pound! From 44 Ice in India," in St. JTicholas fur October. USEFUL AM) SUGGESTIVE. If by chance your wash-boiler should spring aleak when filled with clothes over a brisk fire, carefully press the clothes away from the side of the leak and sift a small spoonful of Indian meal over the water; the leak will close im mediately. Various means have been resorted to to relieve choked animals; some recom mend tying up one forward leg and forc ing the animal to hobble along; the ellort will cause the obstruction to b thrown from the throat. Another rem edy given is to raise the head of the animal as if for drenching, and throwing down iU throat a broken hen's egg. The manufacturers can test a new ma chine and ascertain by a few simple trials whether it will manufacture the desired article cheaper or better than the old one; but to ascertain how a pound of beef can be made the cheapest, what machine will convert hay into rich cheese in the cheapest and best manner, is a matter requiring a good deal more care and skill. So loxo as an egg is an egg and they are sold by count farmers will not be in haste to exchange thin, smali, old fashioned barnyard fowls for the large, improved and more valuable kinds; neither will they be less likely to go on sorting their eggs, selling the small ones to the grocer and the large ones to cus tomers for an extra price, or, what is more commendable, eating them them selves. Exclut nge. Goose on Gander. I find the goose has always a feminine appearance and the gander the opposite. Her head is smaller and her beak shorter; knot on forehead smaller and not so pointed ; her neck is shorter and more delicate; the black streak on back of neck not so high; colored ring round head not so bright ; her neck conies out of her body more abruptl3'. This is occasioned by her having a larger breast than the gander. giving a square appearance to the body.

A Home-Made Barometer. What is known as Babinet's baroscope is a simple and convenient instrument for foretell ing a storm by change of atmospheric pressure. To construct it, take any bot tle and pour colored water into it to one-fourth its depth, insert in it a glass tube from three to lour feet long and passing air-tight through the stopper, which must also be air-tight. Let a paper index, divided according to any scale of division, say into inches and fractions of an inch, be glued to the glass tube. Blow into the glass tube so as to cause the water to rise in it a few inches, say ten inches, and the instru ment is constructed. The bottle must be placed in another vessel and protected by sawdust or some other material from the influence of change in the atmos phere. This very sensible instrument records faithfully any changes in the density of the external air, and the an. proach of a storm w ill be indicated by a sudden rise of the water in the glass tube Danger of Feeding (Jreen Fodder. J. J. Mecht, of London, England, states that a person who was accustomed to supply his teams with green feed lost two cart horses worth 150. One was found dead and distended in the morn ing, the other died in the course of the day, and another person lost two cows. Young green tares, especially when cut immediately atter rain, are most dagger ous, with the ordinary mode of placing .1 1 f 1 T iiieiu oeiore animais in unlimited quan tity as cut by the scythe. The losses caused by this S3'stem in their annual to tal most be enormous. For thirty 3-ears we have avoided such losses by invaria bly passing all green food, tares, grass, Italian rye grass, clover and green beans through the chatl-cutter. According to th condition of its growth we mix more or less of fine-cut straw r hay chaff with it. 1 his absorbs its superfluous moisture and prevents flatulence, distension and death. The same principle is applied to pulped roots pulped cabbage, kohl rabi. mangel the latter being most dangc ous early in the season unless so ad mixed. The cost of doing all tkis is a trifle as compared with the serious losses occasioned by its omission. The value of a single animal would pay the extra cost for several years. In fact, I have long since arrived at the conclu sion that the turning out, roaming at large and whole lood system will be given up by those who prefer prolit to loss, over-ripe loods, either lares or clover, which are rough and indigestible, require coiuniiuuuon. ui course, in sucn a case, Deing oencient ratner man over full of moisture, they do not require straw chall, or, at all events, very little of it. If horses are lo have water, it should be before eating green tares in a wet state, not after. Bean meal should be intermixed with or attached to the out food in the manger, so that the ani mals cannot take it unmixed. Our horses coming in from work are not allowed to drink cold water until after having eaten a little manger food. Ar. Y. Herald. A Turkey Story. From Fcmtaincbleau, in France, comes an account of an amusing law suit lately tried there, which was decided accord ing to scientific and Solomon-like prin ciples. Monsieur C had for a neigh bor a farmer named B . He also pos sessed a turke3'-hen which, a few weeks ago. Hatched out a brood of fourteen little one. Soon after their birth these new-comers suddenly disappeared, much to the vexation of their owner, who sought in vain for them in every spot whither they could have strayed. One day the mother's oft-repeated "calls were answered by cries from the barnyard of Farmer B . The police were called into consultation, and on the suspected premises found a cage containing ten little turkeys, which Monsieur C swore were his property. B and his wife both protested earnestly that they were innocent of any wrong, but the matter was brought into the courts. At the trial the Judge was puzzled how to proceed, but, acting on the advice of a naturalist, he set the chicks in the pres ence of the hen belonging to B . She instantly flew at them anil pecked them. The other hen was then led into the arena, and the voice of nature was loud ly eloquent. Spreading her wings, the old fowl called the brood and they took shelter in their accustomed place, utter ing loud cries of joy. The mother inarched off in triumph ; the court pro nounced this proof decisive; and Farmer B and his wife were arrested, tried and condemned to two months' imprisonment. ago, piece Ail Elephant'4 Revenge. At Sacramento, a few weeks some leiiow at a menagerie gave a of tobacco to an elephant, w hich caused the animal to give way to a terrible fit of anger. It seized the nearest object upon which to wreak its vengeance, and this proved to be the eleven-year old son of a .Mr. II. W. Luhrs. The great beast wound his trunk about the boy and squeezed him so tightly as to break his right arm between the elbow and the wrist and to severely bruise his body. Icing compelled to release his hold of the bov, the enraged animal, as soon as the lad dropped, again attempted to seize him, and in the effort came near taking the youth's head oft. It was on all hands considered more than fortunate that the animal did not cast him dow n and tram ple him to death, and also fortunate that the angered brute did not run a muck in the crowd, as elephants have done when tobacco has been given them. The boy was not dangerously hurt. Such a trick may have seemed ven- funny to the fel low who phtyed it, but it would have been more generally satisfactory had the elephant given him the hug instead of injuring au innocent boy. Best Organs on Most Favorable Terms Cabinet or Farlor Organs are capital mings ior peddlers lo work with, be cause very poor ones can be made at half the cost of good ones, and few pco pie are competent to tell the difference trom a first examination. Manufacturers print in their catalogues prices which are three or four times as high as the value of such cheap work. Then the peddler starts out and puts them on the people in various ways. He sells at an enormous discount, if he can get cash takes part trade if necessary, or leaves the organ awhile on trial, and sells it on long time at 44 rnanulacturer s price," ex hibitmg the catalogue to show that it is such, or even at a discount from thi which he can well afford. The Mason fc Hamlin Organ Co. have recentH' announced a plan which is like ly to interfere with this business. This company, as is well known, makes only tne best work, wnicn, by its uniform ex ccllcncc, has obtained the highest repu tation for their organs. They proved the best, and obtained the highest awards at the recent V lenna and Paris W orld's Ex positions, as they have uniformly done in American industrial competitions The fact that these organs are the best in the world is indeed too well established to need further indorsement. The company have now added a large new factory to their former extensive works, and design to greatly increase their business. This they propose to do by offering organs for time pa3'ments, or for rent with privilege of purchase, at barely suihcient advance on the cash prices to afford a reasonable interest for the time. An organ may be hired by the quarter with privilege of purchase at any time in one year or longer. If purchased within the 3rear, the whole cost, including rent paid, is only o to 10 per cent, more than if the cash had been paid down at the beginning. Persons having any idea of purchas ing will be wise to send a note to the Mason & Hamlin Co., at either Boston New York or Chicago, and obtain Hick new circulars, before purchasing. Prince A; Co.'

I have used one bottle of Favorite Prescription with the best results, although I will admit I was somewhat discouraged after its use (for n ehort time 01113-). I took it under very disad vantageous circumstances having the super vision of the house and during the season of 44 house-cleaning" I was obliged, through th incompetency of help, to do more than 1 ought, and, of course, suffered dreadfully. in tea wlien 1 ought not to have raised un hand, and did all 1 could to bring 44 orderout of chaos" but upon laying aside all cares aiid continuing the reiiicuy 1 lind after using le than one bottle to be so much benefited that I have discontinued the use, with no return of the svmptoms of which I wrote vou. I have suffered terriblv, and what added to m distress was the consciousness of not procur ing relief from ordinary sources; at times it seemed about impossible to stand, so great was the distress. All of those severe neural gie pains have disappeared; thev were so bad at times I could hardlv walk without some external pressure. They seem to have left me like magic, suddenly, and have had no re turn; all other symptoms have been removed. The severe weakness and faintness have dis appeared, and I can go up stairs with com parative ease now. I would have informed you ere this of my improvement, for I appre ciated it, but I was fearful it was only tran sient benefit I was receiving-, but l" think sutlicient time has elapsed to consider the beneficial results permanent. Accept of uiy best wishes for jour .future success and your kindness in advising me. Very trulj-, Mas. M. Nettie Snypek. Medical Maniacs. There are num. hers of medical men so wedded tojthe old formulas that all changes seem to them like innovations. These medical maniacs are, fortunately, incapable of much mischief in this practical age. While the Vineoak Bittehs are curing Indigestion, Nervous Debility, Constipa tion, and countless other diseases that def3r the remedies of the pharmacopoia. it is impossible to thrust down the throats of intelligent invalids 44 heroic" doses of mineral poison, or to persuade them to take adulterated alcohol, impreg nated with cheap astringents, as a 44 heal ing balm" or a 44 balsamic preparation." Vixeoak Bitteks, a pure botanical tonic and alterative, guiltless of the curse of distilled or fermented liquor, is actually accomplishing what the mineral and al coholic, cure-mongers have so incessant' promised but have never 3-ct performed. Under these circumstances it is no won der that this medicine has taken prece dence of all those burning lluids mis called tonics. 1 Wn.noFT's To.xir ! Unkaii.ino axd In--fai.i.iui.e!

Walker's Cahlorma wii esar Bitters aro a purely VerctaLla preparation, mado chiefly from tbo na tive herbs found on tlio lower ranges ot the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor nia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without tlio usa of Alcohol. ThO question 13 almoC daily asked, "What is tho cause of tha unparalleled 6ucccs3 of Visegar Bit teks T" Our answer ia, that they remove tho causo of diseaso, and tho patient re covers his health. They are tho great blood purifier and a lifc-givinff principle, a perfect Innovator and Invigorator of tho tystcm. Never before; ii. th history of tho -world has a medicino boon compounded possossinf? tho remarkable qualities of Yineoar Bitter.3 in healinjr th eick of every disease man ia bcir to. They are a gentle Turgativo aa wr-il a3 a Tonio, relieving CongoMiaa or Inflammation of the Liver and Yiaccral Organs, ia Uiliooa Diseases. The properties of Dr.. "Watkeh's Viseqar Bittkrs are Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretio, Sedative. Counter-irritant, Sudorific, Alter tire, and Anti-Biliou Graf f fill Thousands proclaim Vur Xgak Bitters tho most wonderful Ia Tigorant that ever sustained the sinking No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones aro not do stroyed by mineral poison or other meam, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. liilious. Remittent and Inter mittcnt 1 cvers, which aro so preva lent in tho valleys of our great rivera throughout tho United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan 6as, lied, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grando, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro anoke, James, and many others, witli their vast tributaries, throughout out entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive de rangements of tho stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgativo, exerting a pow erful influence upon theso various or gans, is essentially necessary. Thero is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr J. Walker's Yixegar Bitters, as they will speedily remove tho dark colored viscid rnattcr with which tho bowel3 aro loaded, at tho samo tiino stimulating the secretions of tho liver, and generally restoring tho healthy functions of tho digestive organs. Fortify tho boty ag-akist disrfr3 by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. No epidemic can tako hold of a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head ache, Pain in tho Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of tho Chest, Dizziness, Sour Lructations of tho Stomach, Bad Tasto in tho Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita tation of tho Ileart, Inflammation of tho Lungs, Pain in the region of tho Kid neys, and a hundred other painful symp toms, aro the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will provo a better guaranto a of its merits than a lengthy advertise ment. Scrofula, or King's Eyil, Whlto Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore Eyes, etc. Ia these, as in all other constitutional Dis eases, Walker's Vinegar Bitters have shown their great curative powers in tho most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases ara caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases. Persons en paged in Paints and Minerals, suck as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beators, arid Miners, as they advanco in life, are subject to paralysis of tho Bowels. To pnard against this, take a doso of YTalkes's euar Bitters occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet ter, Salt-Kheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boil.", Carbuncles, King-worm, Scald-head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discoloration c f tho" Skin, IJuinors and Diseases of tho Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dag np and carried out of the system in a short time by tho uo of these Bitters. Fin, Tape, and other Worm?, lurking in the system of so many thousand -t, are effectually destroyed and removed. svstera of medicine, no vermifuges, no aa tnelminitlcs will free tho system from worn:s like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in your? or old, married or Binglo, at the dawn of wo manhood, or the turn of lif theso Toric Bittera display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Cleanse tho Vitiated IIood when ever yon find iu impurit ies bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sore.; cleanse it when you find it obstructed fiii i Blupgish in tho veins; cleanse it when it ii foni ; your feelings will tll you when.
