No organ of thought or action can be employ ed without the assistance of the blood, and no organ can be employed safely or with impunity without a supply of healthy bloed. With healthy blood the exercised organs become well developed, whether thev be muscular or intellectual. By the use of Fellows' Com. pound Wyrnp of Ilypophosphltett the blood is speedily vitalized aud purified, and so made capable of producing a sound mind and a sound body. "Persons suffering from impure blood, or whose health is giving way, either as ministers or those who studv closely, will find in the Syr np the material to build them up, and the ton ic to keep them there. Da, Clat. Pittsfield, Me.. March 1872. Mr. James I. Fellows : Dear Sir : During the past two years I have givaa your Com pound Syrup of Hypophospnites a far though somewhat severe trial in my practice, and am able to sueak with confidence of Its effects. In restoring persons suffering from emaciation and the debility following Diphtheria, it has done wonders. I constantly recommend its use in all affections of the throat and lungs. In several cases considered hopeless, it has given relief, and the patients are fast recovering ; among these are Consumptive and old Bronchial sub ject, whose diseases have resisted the other modes of treatment. For impaired digestion, and in fact for debility from any cause, I know of nothing equal to it. Its direct effect in strenctbening the nervous system renders it suitable for the majority of diseases. I am, sir, yours truly, Wm . S. Howe, M. D. ' Note. It is only the independent, tceH-porf-ed and unxelfush Physicians who can afford to prescribe this remedy. Experience has piaved this. The highest class medical men in every large city where it is known, recommend it. PRICE: $1.50 per Bottle. $7.50 for six Bottles. 2U STOMACH rJli, Ail Yourself.

Charley, you'll be sure to re iu. i.r?" 'To remember what?" said Mr. Mcrciith, with a hopeless expression of infinity on his countenance. Kitty Meretlith dropped both hands despair ingly at her sides, Ch u les!" she excl iinied, 'you don't nif.-ni that you've for-rottn already?" ' My deaf," said Mr. Meredith, fumb ling in ihedeptlis of his overcoat pock eiH for a missing glove, "I may not have forgotten but 1 don't seem ex actly to remember!" "The oysters!" suggested1 the wife. ' Oli, yea," said Mr. Meredith, "the oysters. "And the two ounces of double zeplivr scarlet wool!" "Exactly." "And the depot-hack to be in wait ing at two o'clock for your cousin from Chicago." Mr. Meredith slapped his hand on the table. "She is coming to-day. I declare to goodness!' ho ejaculated. "And a dozen Havana oranges for dessert, and two pounds of white grajx's, and some of those delicious lit tle Naples biscuit and maccaroons, from Saltaselli's oh, and let them send me up a girl from St. Char's!" 'A which?'-" "A girl, you go.-e! For general housework. Phoebe went home this morning with a face-ache, and I can't be left alone with company coming and all. Mind she's a good cook and understands waiiiugat table!" And. Mr. Meredith rushed off to catch the nine thirty express with a kaleidoscopic confusion of grapes, zephyr wool, depot-hacks, oysters, and servant-maids careering through his brain, which boded ill for Mrs. Mere dith's domestic plai)3. While that lady, clasping both hands over her forehead, in a sort of tragic despair, rushed down into the kitchen, where a very good-looking young man of some two or three-and-twenty was on his knees in trout of the range, try ing to coax a most unwilling tiro to burn. The good-looking young man glanced up, with a comical sparkle in his eyes, and a smudge of soot travers ing the bridge of his nose. "Well?" said he. "Tom," fcicd Mrs. Meredith, hyster ically, "can you make lobster salad?" "Like a book!" said Tom. "And collee?" ""I learned in Paris!" "Good," said Mrs. Meredith. "And I can make buttermilk biscuit and, between us, will get up a decent lunch for the young lady from Chicago! As lor dinner " "Well?" again remarked the young man with the soot-besmudged nose. "Providence must provide!" sighed the matron. "There'san old chintz-colored rooster in the barnyard," said Tom, hopeful ly. "If I could once catch him, I'd have a chicken stew!" "Tom," said Mrs. Meredith, "did you ever make a chicken stew? ' "No." "Tlien you don't know what you're talking about," said the lady, with some asperity. "Yes, I do, too," maintained the amateur Soyer. "Onions, potatoes. celery, pearl-barley, with a' pinch ol salt, and " "Nonsense!" interposed Mrs. Mere dith. "Do pick that lobster out of its shell, and leave off romancing! You're a deal better at poetry and newspaper sketches than you are in tho kitchen ; though, to be sure," with a twinge of conscience, "goodness Knows what l should do without you just in this par ticular emergency, you dear old dar ling. The lobster was only half nicked out of its shell, the buttermilk biscuit was still unmixed, and Mrs. Meredith, with a pocket-hand kerchief tied around her pretty brown hair, was dusting the little drawing-room, when there came a ring at the door-bell. 15 he put the turoanea neaa out or the window after a most unceremonious fashion. "Who's there?" she demanded, in a high contralto. "Does Mrs. Meredith live here?" re torted a woman's voice. And at the same instant tho young matron caught sight of a neat black leather basr. a black alpaca dress, and a shawl ot the plainest Highland plaid. "It's the new trirl. thank Prnv?- dence!" said Mrs. Meredith ; and she flew down stairs, thanking honest Charley, in her heart, for his unex pected promptitude. "Come in," she said, opening the door wide. "I am glad you are so punctual, my good girl. From the St. Char's Intelligence Bureau, I suppose? No, don't take off your tnmgs up Here the servant's room is below stairs ; you may as well come directly down into the kitchen." bhe lea the way down, followed hv the new erlrl. whose counten&nen rather a bewildered expression. "What is tout name? the aaksd pa tronizingly. "My name? Oh, ils Mariha," an swered the stranger in some "confusion. "Martha?" critically repeated Mrs. Meredith. "What an ugly name! I think 1 shall call you Patty. Have you good references?" "I believe so." 'I think," said Mrs. Meredith, sur veying her from top to toe, "you are a little over-dresacd lor your situation, Patty : but ot course you have some plainer clothes in your trunk when it comes?" The stranger lifted a pair of grave blue eyes to tho tall form, girded around with a towel, who was vigor ously wrestling with the claws of a stupendous lobster at the table be yond. "Do you keep a man cook, ma'am," said she? Mrs. Meredith drew herself up. Certainly :iot," said she. "This is my brother, Mr. Selwyn, who is kindly assisting me to make a salad." "liut ho is not doing it right," said the new girl. "He'll never get the meat out of the shell iu that way. Let nie show you, Mr. Selwyn." And with deft lingers she loosened the luscious whito fioer from tho scar let shell iu a manner that made Mr. Selwyn cry "Bravo!" "And now, Patty," said Mrs. Mere dith, I will show you where the things arc, and leave you to get us up as nice a lunch as you can for half past two o'clock; we are expecting my hus band's cousin from Chicago, and I want everything iu perfect order." "I'll finish the salad," said Tom, who had secretly been observing the pret ty face and trim figure of the new do mestic, "now that I've commenced it. But you needn't look so perturbed, Patty, if that's your name. I'll be careful not to get in your way. And you can ask my sister there if I'm not a handy 6ort of a fellow around the kitchen." Kitty shook her head surreptitiously at Tom behind t he screen; Tom reso lutely alloc ted not to perceive the warning gesture. ' Half an hour afterward he came up lo the dining-room where Mrs. Mere dith was arranging her best lilac-aud-gold chinn. "Kilty," iid lie, "she's a jewel! A gem of the first water! Depend upon it, she's not always worked in the kitchen! I quoted Shakespeare npro? p03 of something or other, I don't re member what, and she recognized the grand old words at once her eyes brightened, and you should have sceu the color come into her cheeks!" "Quoted Shakespeare!" cried out Mrs. Meredith. "To a common kitch en girl!" "I don't believe in high life below stairs," said Mrs. Meredith disdain fully. The lunch came up at half past two, in perfect order, but no cousin from Chicago arrived no depot hack rolled up to the door. "How provoking!" said Kitty. "Miss Meredith must have missed some essential connecting train. . Charley will bo so vexed! But, however, I don't so much mind company coming in at any time, now that I have got such an excellent girl!" The'dinner of daintily-roasled quails and a ra obit fricassee, with a dessert of custards and jelly, was duly served at precisely seven, at which hour Mr. Meredith himself bounced itihot and flushed with the haste he had made. 'Where is she?" cried he. " "Where is who?" cried Kitty. "My cousin from Chicago!" "Oh!" said Kitty. "She has not come!" "Not come?" "No!" Mr. Meredith drew a lon ih of mingled regret and relief. "Then, atter all," said he "it's not so unlucky." "What is not so unlucky?" petu lantly demanded his wife, "My dear Charles, you are expressing yourself altogether in riddles." "That I forgot all about the oysters, and the zephyr wool, and the servant girl?" "Forgot?" "Ycs forgot. Isn't that plain Eng lish enough?" "But you didn't forget," remonstrat ed Mrs. Meredith. "You sent her. She's here now, in the kitchen." Mr. Meredith started. "I've sent no one," said he. "Never thought of the girl from that moment to this, I givo you my word of honor!" "Then," slowly ejaculated Kitty, "who did send her?" "Ring the bell!" said Mr. Meredith. "Let's have her up! Who knows but she's one of those regular confidence women, with an eye to the fo'-ks and spoons!" And as he spoke he jerked the bell cord with some energy. In a minute or two the new girl came up, smiling and courtcsying. Mr. Meredith uttered an exclamation of "Why, it's Martha Meredith!" shouted he. "It's my cousin from Chicago!" And he clasped her in his arms, with a shower of kisses that made honest Tom's hair stand on end. . ("I wish she was" my cousin from Chicago," uttered he, in a stage aside. Kitty turned as scarlet as a pepper pod. "Oh, good gracious!" she cried clasp ing her little hands nervously, "and I took her for the cook!" "And I am a cook when necessity requires it. Cousin Kitty!" said pretty Martha Meredith, making her peace with a kiss. "Don't bo vexed with nie for humoring the jokrj indeed, indeed, I couldn't help it Aud I will show you how to make those meringuc3 glacees, and the Neapolitan creams, to morrow!" And they all sat happily down to gether to- the roast quail and fricasseed rabbit and Kitty and Margaret went together to the Intelligence bureau on the morrow and established a Milesian damsel in the kitchen, who was not at all incongruous to her surroundings! . And Tom leaned over his sister's shoulder, and whspered waggishly : "Didn't 1 tell you she was a gem or the first water?" Putting together the facts that Ste phen Denaro kept seven pistols and live guns in his house, on Edisto Isl and, S. C, that his favorite theme was the untrustworthiness of circumstan tial evidence, and that four men have been murdered in his neighborhood within a few years, the officials con cluded that his arrest was proper, al though there is no direct proof of his euilt. .

Is perfectly right, 'tis true ; But what would become of you. my love, Oh, what would become of you?" Scientific Temperance. Microscopic examination has shown two things clearly with reference to the action of alcohol n the human system. 1. Its effect on the blood. Dr. Harriman in a aeries of ex periments in Boston showed that alchol produced these among oth er essential changes in red blood corpuscles. It acts specifically en the coloring matter, making it colorless. It distorts and in some cases wholly breaks up ho red corpuscles and pro duces a parasite vegetation in the fluid of the blood and hydro-carbon sub stances can readily be detected by the microscope. In throwing upon a screen magnified corpuscles, both of healthy blood and that which had been sub jected to action of alcohol, the differ ence was marked and striking. The effect of the alcohol, was thus shown to be destructive of the very life cur rents of the body and, of course, hav ing a deteriorating effect upon the whole system. But as the vigor and tone of the bruin is largely dependent on the puri ty of the blood with which it is sup plied, it is manifest that the effect of alcohol would be deleterious to the brain and to all mental action in pre cise ratio to the quantity taken into the system. Recent investigations have mado it clear not only that alco hol is bad for the brain, but that it is specifically on the brain that it does its most harmful work. It is some times said of the drinker, the liquor has gone to his brain. That is precise ly where all liquor goes, not as a sani tary or tonic agent, but as a steadily and scientifically destructive agent. Rev. Joseph Cook, in a recent lecture, traces very cleverly the direct effect of alcohol on thebraiu. He says: "As all chemists admit, tho local affinity of alcohol is for the brain." This is in entire accord with the highest med ical authority. Dr. Breckwill quotes Forbes Wiuslow as having testified be for a committee of Parliament, that the liquid dipped from the brain of an habitual inebriate can be burned. Dr. Kirk mentions a case in which "the bui liquid of a man who died in in toxication smelt very stiongly of whis key, and when some of it was taken in a spoon and a candle put beneath it, the flame burned with a lambent blue flame." Alcohol then acts directly and dis tructively on the brain. That means it kills the man in the upper ranges of his7 being. It may work slowly, wel-lnigh im perceptibly in its hardening and dead ening effect, bat it surely goes to the brain of all who use it, it surely weak ens that brain, and if taken in sufficient quantity will as certainly destroy Rea son and Conscience, as it will destroy the body. Indeed, it has been shown that it acts first on the reason and conscience and afterwards on the body. It benumbs and confuses the drink er's brain, before it makes him stagger, or puts him to sleep. He is garrulous in a partially dethroned mind, before he falls into tho gutter. There is a corollary to this scientific fact. Of course these experiments are made on the brain3 of inebriates. But the logic'of them goes farther back, and infallibly points out the peril of moderate drinking. If alcohol goes to the brain te work destructivly,it will do its work in tho exact ratio of the amount of it. Proof alcohol will work faster than that which is diluted, dis tilled liquor faster than fermented; but each will de its utmost to break down the man. Brandy will skoot the drinker mos.t swiftly to tho grave. Bat wine will slowly and scientifical ly, according to the amount of alcohol it contains, work toward the same re sult. If the conclusions of these doctors are correctly drawn, they overturn to tally and forever the idea advanced by moderate drinkers, that wine and beer are wholesome, but whiskey is ruin ous. The difference is only one of de gree. A further argument for total ab stinence is herein suggested by the fact that the tasto for diluted alcohol is tho precursor of a taste for purer alcohol. The moderate drinker uses wine for its alcohol. It is the alcohol effect he prizes. It will lead him on to seek more of it. But even should this not be the case, out of kis wine be can in the course of years distil alcohol enough in hi' brain to weaken intel lectual action and deaden moral sen sibility. Thus science points the way of the bible when it declares the un wisdom of the man who allows cither wine or strong drink, either fermented or distilled liquors to deceive him. The Chinese say that a drunkard's nose is a light house, warning of the little water that passes underneath. The Irish say that a drunkard's nose i like a valcano, because of the erup tions of the'erater. Tke Comic Side of Intemperance Life has it3 sunny side, its ehady side, its money side, and its funny side. The teruperanco idea has become aa institution, and presents various phas es, one of which is seen from its com ic side. . When the drunkard on his back feels upward for tho ground, when he goes to the pump to light his pipe, when he attempts to walk on both sides of the street at the same time, when he endeavors to keep h:s spirits up by pouring spirits down, when he refuses to drink water because it has a flavor of sinners since the flood, when be counts the strokes of the fire bell and swears it is fourteen o'clock, we are forced 4o laugh, although Consci ence utters her protest, and, as Princo John would say. it seems "like whist ling at a funeral." The tone of voice, the speech, the gait, the attitudes of the toper, are ir resistably ludicrous. lie is ready to fight or to shout,- and sometimes the hidden secrets of sobriety leak out of that fissure between his chin arid nose, so that we often hear men exclaim: In vino Veritas which means, "when the wine is in, the truth comes out." The drunkard is often a jolly fellow and has a good share of mother wit, and that makes him a magnet of at traction in the bar-room. Gough used to sing a song well, and tell a good sto ry, and he was one of the most i.opu- lar drinkers of his "ay. Liquor-venders could well afford to furnish such customers with "free drinks." They are the landlord's pets; they draw full houses, and givo an air of jollity and happiness to the tralllc. "Why," said a physician to his in temperate neighbor, "why don't you take a regular quantity of rum every day, set a regular stake that you will go so far and no farther?" "I do," re plied pimple-face, "but I set it down so far.'I get drunk before I reach it.' We see the bead on the whisky wit of that man. Sometimes the laugh comes in at the expense of the drunkard. His odd reply to a straight-forward question, his strange comments on the words and actions of others, his awkward re sponse to something said or done, may make him the laughing slock of the whole community. George Ilaydock, the ex-wood sawyer aud ex-drunkard, was iu the habit of saying things as sharp as the teeth of his saw. He was making a temperance speech one Sun day on the dock, when one of his. bib ulous auditors interrupted him. "Shut up !" said George. "What for?" inquired the toper. "Because you are violating the law." "How is that?" "It is unlawful to open a grog-hole on the Sabbath." How can we account for the feeling of mirth which follows the idiotic per formances of drunken men and wom en? Is it not partially due to the fact that we look for dignity, discretion and common sense in a man ; but when we find the opposites of these attrib utes, we are jostled out of the rut of propriety by the suddenness of the con trast, and are forced to laugh,' "like tip9y joy that reels with tossing head?" We see a human being, endowed by his Creator with reason, judgment, taste, imagination and conscience, vi olating the laws of his nature, cloud ing his intellect, and debilitating his body. He was created a little lower than the angels, and he sinks a good deal lower than the brutes. He was mado to stand erect, with his face to wards the stars; but he cannot stand at all, and his face is in the dust. He was made eloquent of speech; but his tongue fails to perform its functions aright, and staggers under the load up on his brain. lie was made to think, and the or gans of the head were the grand jury to render verdicts in all questions com ing up before the throne of his judg ment; but he shows less wisdom than the mere animal, whose instincts leach it to turn from alcohol. We laugh, in spite of the protests of taste, of humanity, of conscience, wo laugh, with tears in our eyes, at the comic side of drunkenness. We look at the outside; we listen to the gibber ish of the drunkard, forgetting his re sponsibility, his awful fate, tho dread ful evils which creep out of the cup he puts te his lips, and we laugh until we are swept from the moorings of our own good sense of propriety.
