StomachLiver Cure The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. , " It Is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar It is Safe arid Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful IVervine Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country by the G.-e&t South American Medicine Company, and yec its great value as a curative agent has long been known by the native inhabitants of South America, who rely almost wholly upon its ereat medicinal
I powers to cure every form of disease by which they are overtaken. L This new and vahi.iblc South American medicine possesses powers and
qualities hitherto unknown to the medical profession. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure oi Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, and diseasies of the general Nervous System. It also cures all forms of failing healtt. from whatever cause. It performs this by the Great Nervine Tonic qualities which it possesses and by its great curative powers upon the dijrestive org ins, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthener of the life forces of the human body and as a great renewer of a broken down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the Lungs than any ten consumption remedies ever used on tins continent. It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic almost constantly for the spee of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthener and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life.

NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the eldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir, are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impair ed digestion. When there is an insnffident supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied, and a thousand weaknesseu and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must Bupply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it i3 the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does net contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode or living and labor imjwses upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This recent production of the South American Continent has been found, by analysis, to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue
formed. This accounts lor its magic CxLTroKsevrms. Ian., Aug. X,tB.'

MO J liULK. A Terrlbllo Bread Blot in Ilerlln. Berlin spocial: That the spirit of discontent is spreading with alarming force among tho mafaes of the Gorman Empire was exemphliod here, when a bodv of 3,000 or 4,000 unemployed workmen met by preconcertud arrangement in a public square and passed a series, of inflammatory resolutions denouncing their employers and the system of government which enabled tho latter to crush the worklngman beneath the iron hec! of capital, and calling upon the government to take steps to protect tho interests of the working classes. They formed In line and marched toward the Kaiser's castle. They had nearly reachnd the castlo gates when a detachment of police suddenly threw themselves between the rioters and the cuttle and made a determined chargo upon tho head of the workingmen's column. Tdo latter, for a moment or so, nerved by the roaring cheers of thousands, bravely and stubbornly withstood the attacks of the police, and, pressed onward by those in the rear, actually managed to gain headway and to beat back tho powerful polico department. The latter, however, rallied, and, hitting furiously right and left, wounded scores upon scores of workmen, who fell bleeding beneath the feet of the officers of the law. As darkness came on the mob Increased in number and grew more dangerous in temper. Tho various bands must have numbered several thousands. They had no organized leadership, but they hold virtual possession of the eastern quarters of Berlin, especially of Frankfurter and Wcissenborger street In Grtienweig btrasso tho mob at-, tacked the houses and 9hops domanding bread and beer. They pillaged the bake sbops and divided the oread among all who wanted it The half famished people solzcd and devoured the food with a wollishness which was eloquent of their misery and hunger. Some men left tho mob and hurried home with loaves in their arms, to their starving families. Others sat down on the street and banqueted on the spoils. Meantime the conflict raged between the police and the mob, the former gradually gaining ground. The polico were directed with much judgment and skill, their Instructions being to aim for the capture, or, If necessary, tho killing of those who appeared to be leaders. This they carried out, and as fast as one who seomed to be a ringleader was taken he was hurried away to prison. In this way tho mob was kept disorganized and prevented from forming in any formidable group. Large numbers were wounded, more or loss sevorely, but It It is not known at this moment whether any one was killed or not A multitude of prisoners were taken and lodged under a strong guard in the cells, Johnson County's Uisgraee. The report of tho grand jury of Johnson County, Ind. , before Judge Hackney, shows that the Orphans' Uoruo, Hopewell, is a disgrace to the county. The children were found insufficiently clothed and not properly fed. Tho rooms are desolate looking, and many of them damp and unfit for occupancy for several weeks. Citizens of tho place have been indignant over this slate of affairs for some time, and it is probable decisive action will be taken soon. Met it Horrible Fate.

Vienna special: The condition of the unemployed is becoming desperate) and the authorities aro makiig serious preparations for trouble. Charitable provision has been made for many of them and large apartments with iiros to keep tho unfortunates warm have been opened, as well as places where food is freely given to the destitute. I'.ut these remedies are riot sufficient to deal with the evil, which is growing every day, as the people without work pour in from the provinces.

He then addressed a letter to Mayor Sullivan In which he detailed the circumstances and the refusal of the police to assist him.
