He relieved me some, but said I could not be Rexmanentlv cared as the disease originated in the blood, I remained & great sufferer for several years, until I heard of and consulted a Fhivﬂc!sn. who said I had scrofulous humor and if T wonld allow him to'doctor me hﬁ' would cure me. 1 did so, and he - commenced healing up my sores and succeeded in - effecting an external core, but in a short time the “digeasc appeared againin a worse form than ever, 88 cancerous ‘humor upon my lanss, throat and head. I suffered the most terrible Fa!n. and there ~seemed to be no remedy. and my friends thought 1 must soon die, when my attention was cafled, while reading a newspag;er, to a VEGETINE festimomal of Mrs. Waterhouse, No. 364 Athens-st.. | South Boston, and I, formerly ing in Sonth Boston and being E:m;qmlly na with her and knowing her former faeb )y L conélnd. ed I would try Vege : taken a few bottles it seemed 'to ). gores out of néﬁ gysteni, 1 had running sores in my ears which' for/a time wese very painful, but I continued to take the Vegetine nntill had taken 25 bottles. my heslth.imgroving all the time from the commencement of the firse bottle, and the sores to heal. 1 commenced taking the Vegetine in 1872, and continned its constant use for six months, At the Eresent time my health is better than it ever has een since I was a child. The Vegetine is what helped me, and I most cordially réccommend it to. all sufferers, especially my friends.

" Fingla I R T v AR g S MBR. DOPI'S DINNER PARTY. ﬁ tell youi_yaﬁ}n‘ rtin, we must give a dinner partyP¢ . . ; i - “FiddlesticksfmNonsense!” replied -wmtm d, taking his meer- : unt®out of hi§ mouth’ and giving #e fire 2 prodigio®s stir. “Giveadiner p%rﬁv? and what for, I'd like to now?’ » e . “But, as I was saying,” went on Mrs. Dodd, “we must positively entertain a few friends in a quiet way. lam positive that Mrus. St. Cecil expects it of me.” oy

_ “Let her expect! What are Mrs. St. Cecil and her expec@tiops to us, I'd like to know!” B ;

“Mr. Dodd! Now, anyone might know. from that very question that you are quite unaccustomed to good society! My love, Mrs. St. Cecills the sweetest and most fashionable creature in the place. Everybody is wild about her diamonds and her India shawls. And Mr. St. Cecil is the most interesting person I ever met—dark-eyed and melancholy,” you know, with a mustache like black floss silk, and——"

“] dare say, my love,l dare sayv—ebqt» if all this is true, 'mquite at a loss to _copgegture; what brings these aristoeratic people to call on the wife of a vpliifin, plodding merchant like myse .ﬂ *

- Mrs. Dodd looked down and blushed prevtily. ' e “Why, Martin, Mrs. St. Cecil fancies that 1 have some little intellectual culture; and she says that I only need a litz;,le polish to be quite a belle, and ~ “Ah ah, Polly! 8o she has been flattering my little wife, eh ?” : “I wish you wouldn’t call me Polly, Martin—it sounds so countrified! Mrs. St. Cecil always calls me Marie!” “My dear,” said Martin Dodd, quite gravely, “the St. Cecils are very fine, I don’p doubt; but we have always been very happy in our station ‘and cirele, and I do not exactly believe in aping the fashionable follies of people so very far above us in means and position.” ; - Mrs. Dodd burst into tears. X “I might have known it, Martin,” she sobbed behind her pocket handkerchief.. “You want me to be a mere drudge ull my.days—never to have ‘a thought above housekeeping——” © Martin Dodd became as soft-hearted as a child before the sight of those tears—he capitulated at once. “Well, well, dear, I don’t mean to hurt your feelings; give forty dinnerparties if you feel like it. I don’t objeet.” b : Mrs. Dodd brightened again, like a little buttercup lifting its burnished head after a shower. 4 - “Yes, but, Martin——" 1 “Well, Polly—l would say Ma-ree!” “I must positively have a' new china dinner set. Oursisdreadfully clipped and broken.” ' : . Martin looked dubiously. : “China is rather an expensive toyin these days.” R “But, Martin, this dinner set will last all our lives.” “Will it? Well, I'm not so certain of that, Marie. However, have your own way.” : - “Well, then,” said Mrs. Dodd, joyously, “I’ll fix on Wednesday for the dinner party, and writethe invitations directly. = Are you going to go, Martin ‘?” g L ” > : “Yes—whw not - : “But yow’ll have to leave me a little money!” .. = - “What for ?”- “Contingent expenses, to be sure, I must hire a French cook from Martini’s and—— = “A French cook!” ; “Why, of course; what would the St. Cecil family think of Bridgett’s cooking®” ... & “If they don’t like our cooking they ‘needn’t come t%)ur dinner,” said honest Martin, bluiltly. 1 “And then,” went on Mrs. Dodd, “I must have some jellies and a pineapple, and an epergne full of hot-flowers —Selwyn has some lovely one’s—and I must hire real cutglass.” - “Must, indeed!” grumbled Martin, as ‘he tossed his portmonnaie on thetable: and banged the door behind him rather vindictively, Mrs. Dodd counted the money thoughtfully. b “Not half enough,” she murmured, pouting out her pretty lip. “Why will Martin be so stingy—and on an occasion like this, too, when the St. Cecils will expect everything to be in firstrate order? I never mentioned the extra wines—nor the men to wait— Mrs, St. Cecil’s footmen are so stylish! Oh, dear, dear! But, then, Martini will trust me—and the bills can be sent in afterwards. I wonder how many people our dining-room will comfortably accommodate ?”’ . t i

She rose and went info the glcomy little apartment designated by the lofty title of “dining-room.” “This carpetis too shabby,” she ejaculated, vindictively. “I must have a new one, and the walls must be fresh prepared. I don’t suppose Martin will object.” i * * ¥ * * * * *

_“Weil, my love,” said Martin that evening, as he lighted his old friend, the meerschaum, and placed his feet on the fender, preparatory to a cozy 'colxzj ugal chat, “whom are you going to ask ?” : 3 : . “The Rivers, the St. Cecils, the Meltons and the €ardonnels, I think; perhaps Mr. Venner and his gister. That will be just-a dozen.” ] i

_“But, Polly——" S ““Mr. Dodd[” : “Ma-rie, then,” corrected the husband, with a grimace ; “ain’t you going to ask the Thompsons ?” “Certainly not, my dear.” ‘ “They are our oldest friends, wife. Thompson stood néext to me when we were married, and our baby died in #rs. Thompson’s arms,” “I can’t help that, dear. ‘What wo’d the St. Cecils think of Mr. Thompson’s’ atrocious grammar, and Mrs, Thompson’s dyed silk dress?” = s “Polly,” said Mr. Dodd, this: time reckless of his wife’s warning glanece; “if the St.\Cecils are too fine for our old friends, I think they’d much better keep away. You've been a different creature since you became acquainted with that flaunting St. Cecil woman.” e e mind, Idon't gbject to your having a few people to dinner, althoughgoodDess knows my means are: straitened enough just now--more so than you ;ﬁ”;to %m:h;&' but I do ob= ﬁmmwwa ﬁx"?‘ww st silc one of mine is getting very e e i, Wil

‘husband’s welfare for once?” - “Men always talk so whenever a ‘Wwoman asks ﬁﬁ ﬁq:‘ygxlng." exelaimed Mrs. Dodd, pettishly. “I don’t see the use of living if I can’t have what I want.. Oh! I wish we were as rich as eBE Caglis™ w 0 . - Martin Dodd did not reply audibly. but in his secret heart he wished the St. Cecil family at the bottom of the * ® *® - % * *® * *“You'd better take the dress,ma’am; it’s a bargain you won’t have offered every day in the yvear.” ' The dapper linen—dapper’s assistant held up the lustrous lavender silk in gleaming folds. Mrs. Dodd eyed it longingly. ; _ “Twenty guineas! I really can’t afford it.” { - ‘

““It’s cheap at that, ma’am—positively dirt cheap.” = : ~ Mrs. Dodd looked again. “The woman who hesitates is lost,” says the old French proverb, and it proved true in Mrs. Dodd’s case. She looked, hesitated, looked a third time, and finally ordered the dress, and paid for it from thie money that Martin had intrusted to her for the quarter’s rent. -~ “I can make it upsomehow or another before Martin knows,” was the salve Polly Dodd applied to her conscience. e She had scarcely swept out of the shop when s stern little old man advanced to the counter. “Was that lady the wife of Martin Dodd, in Wayland street?” he asked keenly. Y ] " . “Yes, sir,” returned the assistant. - “Buying silk dresses ?” e “Oh, that's not the only thing she has bought here lately,” returned the talkative young man: “We sold her: an elegant Brussels carpet from the warehouse yesterday.” : 1 “Yes—ahem—yes,” thoughtfully remarked the old man, striking his chin, and mentally added: ’ “And this is the man who entreats a little more time.

Wednesday had arrived—the day of Mrs. Dodd’s little dinner party. The table, skillfully arranged by Martini’s waiters, wereresplendent in cut glass, china, and fragrant bouquets; while the soft crimson and amber of the new carpet seemed :to be reflected in the pink and gold arabesgques of theFrench wall paper. Mrs. Dodd, looking very fresh and pretty in her new silk dress, had just descended into the drawing room as the clock chimed six. Martin was walking moodily up and down theroom. He looked up, with a dark frown on his brow. “Mary — when did 'you get that MEEAR Y : | “Do you like’it; dear?” hesitated Ifmltlry Dodd, feeling her face flush painully. : “I thought I forbade any such ruinously expensive folly!” - he ejaculated sternly.’ = Mrs. Dodd saw that it was no time for a confession. - . “Don’t speak socrossly, Martin,” she faltered. +lt—ift was a present from Uncle THeodore.” /. ? “A present, eh ? that’s quite another thing.” i _And Mrs/Dodd, feeling inexpressibly miserable and guilty, advanced to meet a coarse-looking woman, ina pink silk dress, and a blinding glitter of diamonds—and that the great Mrs. St. Cecil’s self. % After all; was Mrs. St. Cecil worth all this? : G \The tedious and elaborate dinner was drawing to a g_ose, when there came a violent ring at the door-bell, a. momentary altereation inthe hall, and a sudden rush up the stairs.

| DISEASES OF THE LIVER. ST R e e G s | A number of persons laboring under lungs, are incredible; and by far the greatest majority of them searcely | have a suspicion that such & difficulty exists in the slightest degree. Although they seldom feel well, they are loth to believe that anything serious ‘may arise from it. Diseases of the liver produce a great variety of symptoms. The situation and office.of the liver render 1t more exposed to theaction of disease, and more Vliab‘le.to* be‘come §0 than any other organ of the human body. The symptoms characterizing a diseased liver are nunierous. A sensation of fullness across the chest, in consequence of viscid blood accumulating in the liver, causing it to enlarge or swell, which would press ‘upon the diaphragm, thus lessening the capacity of the chest that the lungs, would not have room t 0 expand, and difficulty of breathing, a dry hacking cough, or shortness of breath would follow, giving rise to phthisic or asthma, and after the upper surface of the liver becomes diseased, extends its influence to the lungs, producing consumption, which doubtless is one of the most frequent causes in this eclimate for producing this disease.— ‘When the blood is retained 'too long in the liver it becomes acrid and creates inflammation, and ulceration of the liver would in time take place.— The viscid state of the blood often produces a thick and viscid state of the bile, giving rise to the formation of biliary caleuli, gall-stones, gravel, ete., producing great distress, as they pass through the bile duct. This ac:rid bile will produce fever, inflamma- | tion, dysentery, and when conveyed into the small intestines will inflame and irritate them, and the patient will feel a fainting, or an indescribable weakness just below the pit of the| stomach, attended with flatulence, acidity, and often a burning sensation, vomiting, spitting up the blood, or spasm, which is usually termed dyspepsia; food would distress them so much as to cause them to live on a very spare diet, the digestive organs would become 80 much. deranged that both digestion and assimulation would be imperfectly performed, and much emaciation of the body would follow, others could eat anything, nothing seems to hurt them, although they eat much' it i 8 not attended with an increase of flesh; they still remain poor, showing that the digestive and assimulating organs have become so impaired as to render them incapable-of performing their office. The bile, when thin and acrid, is capable of being absorbed into the whole system, giving rise to sallowness, yelld%jaundice, and dark or sallow spots on parts of the body of many individuals. The acrid bile being absorbed into the blood, renders it likewise aerid, and dfseases it; and hence eruptions, hu- | mors, and even ulcers make their appearance. Piles are produced from an acrid condition of the bile. In consequence of the absorption of bile into the blood, the viscidity of the blood is increagsed—the blood which was thick before is thus rendered thicker still. The office of the heart is to propel the | blood through thesystem ; when therefore the blood becomes thick the labor of'the heart is increased— which weakens its powers --renders it incapable of throwing the blood to the extremities—hence deficient circulation, cold hands and feet, chillness, often. the feet are very hot as the result of a feeblé circulation of the blood, palpitasions and pains over the region of the heart, which in°many instances, if allowed. to continue, disease of the heart itself will-resalt. - Rheumatism, palsy or paralysis, numbness of the limbs, aches and pain of one description or another, sometimes in the back part of the head are frequently complained of. From whence do they arise but from this viscid state of the blood and debility of the heart® Nervousness, debility, ete.; are all produced by the deficient support which the nerves receive from the blood. Pain, dizziness of the head, ringing of the ears, fullness of the head, great heat in the top of the head, sometimes coldet st b U are often experienced. Why is it so? | The blood being thick and viscid, its motion through the veins is slow, the heart throws the blood through the arteries to tho head faster thi 1t roturne by the yeins badk sgain to the heart, hence accumulations of blood take place 1n the head, press upon the | brain. and produce all the difficulties above named, even falling fits and apoplexy are produced in this way. |

When the upper surface of the liver becomes diseused, it frequently extends its influence to the kidneys, and pains _are experienced: across the small of the back, producing much: distress by diseasing neighboring organs. It is under such circumstances that dropsies, diabetes, diseases of the urinary organs, bladder, etc., oceur. e - Oftenan affection of the liver extends its influence to vhe spleen, caus: ing an enlatgement of that organ—‘impaired condition of the bowels, eithe obstinate costiveness, ot Jasting and extianstive diarrhea—pain in_the ghoulder, between the shoulders, urie the dhoulderbiads 0 the brogt, ete._The patient often iitable et foldroway o ooy, Ere broome h‘ mpa kxm“‘% of di 9“"«;; ’Rﬁ“fm o s Goneernia: and o vaatire 0 L e e ?wi?m’»“%‘é‘“w‘@ﬁﬁ% i Tt R

‘hausted, and he abmawsé fverything of the kind as a piece of déception and: imposition. For the suffering patient this is truly a deplorable fact—all he can derlve is not a cure, a removal of all his affections, but merely a transitory benefit, which sooner or later is followed with an increase of their severity and obstinacy. Relief may be had, but how deadly the cost. Let the afilicted reflect, not-abandon hope By the system of treatment we adopt in the cure of chronic diseases— by the remedial agents we employ, this disease can be cured. Delay not until the death knell has sounded, then expect a restoration. Seék for relief as soon as the first indication of failing health manifests itself,. = =

Sound Advice to Young Men. = {From the Indianapolis Journal.) . The commencement season is over. The baeccalaureate sermons, graduating addresses, salutatories, valedictories, and all the rest have been delivered. The class poems have been read and the class bouquets enjoyed. The annual games have been played and the prizes awarded.. The boys have packed their trunks and gone home, the college halls have been swept and garnished, and the doors, closed till the beginning of the fall session. As a result there are several thousands of young men out of employment, and wondering what they will do. Their studies being closed they are casting about for a new occup?ltion. Some of them are actuated by high and noble. thoughts; others simply by a des_'%: to make a livelihood. ' All want. to by employed, and most feel great possibilities and great energies moving within them. Some will be lawyers, remembering that a great lawyer once said “there is always room in the upper story.” Others will be physicians and surgeons, holding before them the careers of those who have achieved great distidction in this line.. Still: others have a call more or less loud to: the ministry. Seme aspire: to be railroad kings, and some suceessful politicians. If, after all the great careers are provided for, there still remain a few who are ‘willing to take a bit of adviee, the Journal would say to them, go to farming. Do not reject the ad-vice-hastily, young man. Do not reply that your talents are too varied or your education too expensive to be buried in that way. They will not be buried, and yot could not serve your country better in any other way. In all this broad land therg’is no occupation or prefession that calls more loudly for recruits, and for intelligent, educated recruits, than agriculture.— The so-called learned professions are overstocked: everywhere. Mercantile. and business' callings, what might be ‘called middlemen’s pursuits, are full to overflowing. The cities are crowded with clerks, bookkeepers, solicitors, drummers' and agents of all sorts.— For every vacancy that eccurs in these lines there are a thousand applicants. The country is literally cursed with’ non-producers. The only occupation whose ranks are not full, and never can be full, whose doors are wide open: with invitation and whose faithful following promises sure and steady rewards, is farming. The soil. which is'the source of all wealth, invites.and urges men to cultivate it. If an ignorant man can make a living by farming, how much more can an educated man who knows something of the operations of nature, the qualities of seeds and soils, and the relations between the earth and air. The greatest calamity that has ever befallen: this country, (an inevitable one and accompanied by compensations, -but none the less a calamity,)’ was when hundreds of thousands of men were withdrawn from agriculture to be sacrificed in war. The greatest blessing that can happen will bé when its edu--cated young. men come to recognize the fact that farming offers a field for the exercise of their talents second to no other in point of political dignity or personal profit. 'While it cannot be said that the country needs more lawyers, doctors, middlemen or non-pro-ducers .of any Kkind, it can be' confidently asserted that it dvoes need more and better farmers. : n

PERsONS who have what is called a sweet tooth, and who indunlge in frequent eating of candy, will not be pleased to hear to what an extent the candies of the day are adulterated.— The New York ZT'réibune estimates that three quarters of all the candy made in that city is thus adulterated. 1t says that terra alba or white earth, is'used more largely than any other ingredient, and thousunds of hogsheads of it are consumed every year in this country alone for purposes of adulteration. It is a ‘delicate substance, ﬁwhich has been ground by some process of nature to powder so fine that there is no gritty sensation in the mouth when it is eaten with even ten per cent. of sugar. It only costs seven and one-fourth cents per pound, while:good sugar costs thirteen cents. Colored candies are now made by.the use of verdigris, red lead, fuchsine, etc. Poisonous flavors are much used. ‘ln fruit candies,sulphuric acid, decayed cheese, oil of bitter almonds, and fusel oil (the latter known ds a great promoter of Bright’s disease), caused the flavor which is liked.— ‘When it is ¢onsidered that millions ot pounds of candy are shipped annually from New York to all parts of the world the misohief done by these deleterious compounds is seen to be wideGEN.
