Bo it was decided to sell the oalves and buy the lumber for an addition to the shanty, and the next day John Par* ■sons took them over to Mr. Meeker and got tho money for them. On the way home he stopped at another neighbor’s and borrowed a heavy wagon, and the day following started to town bright and early with tho letter to Erastus still carefully concealed in his inside pocket. “Bet that’ll fetch him home on a fun," ho mused as he dropped it into the ofQco at the landing just in timo to have it get into tho mail bag as it was being got ready for tbo down boat. “He’ll be hero in a week of that letter goes straight, er else he ain’t as good •t takin’ a hint as I think he is.’’ Mrs. Parsons noticed that her bus* band was unusually jolly that night when ho returned home, and all the next day and the days that followed after it."

He had always tried to appear cheerful In the presence of his family, and had never failed to respond to any effort of Johnny’s to get up a laugh, » though it often caused him an effort to tio so; but on this particular evening, ■although it was late and he must have ■been tired, he really felt jolly, and ho joked Lucy about one of the clerks at the store, where sho and her mother ■had traded when in town, and also about a neighbor’s son, who had shown a disposition to seek her society, bnt who, not receiving any encouragement, had decided that sho was “stuck up,” ana so informed the other young people of h:s acquaintance. The letter was three days in reaching its destination, and then lay in tho post-office several days more before being called for. Erastus had no correspondents other than the members of Mr. Parsons’ family; and as there had been little that was pleasant to write about on either ■side, letters had not been frequent between them of late, and the young man seldom went to the post-office. One day ah he was working with several of his neighbors upon a ditch which was to bo the means of irrigating their claims, another neighbor, who had been to town, rode up and, stop“Here, Hemmingway; here’s a letter for yon.” Erastus was in bis shirt sleeve3 in the ditch, shoveling, and the horseman leaned from his saddle and handed him tho letter. “If that's from your girl, she don't write a very purtv hand,’rhe said, with a wink at the other ditchers, who had stopped work aDd stood leaning oh their spades. Glancing at the superscription, Eras- 1 tua saw that it was in a strango hand. The post mark, however, proclaimed it to be from Phippsburg, and his first thought was that something terrible had’again happened to Unc’e John and his family—that they wero all dead, may be, and a stranger had written to inform him. Hastily tearing off the envelope, he looked at the signature and saw the hame, “John Parsons,” in stiff, awkward letters, at the bottom of the page, and it fashed over him that Lucy was married and that Uncle John had written to tell him of it because no one else liked to do so, and the .blood rushed to his heart, which beat so that it seemed his companions must hear it. » But no; the letter said: “Lucy and her mother had gone to town.” Then sho was not married yet The blood began to return to its proper channels. “Lucy has given Annelsey his walkin’ papers.” Coul(j it be possible that she was not going to marry the New Yorker after all! his horse, called ont:

And if not, what then? The letter seemed plain enough to be understood without possibility of mistake, yet he read it the second t'me before its full import came to him, and then the blood rushed to his heart even more violently than before. •• Lucy might be his vet—that is what Uncle John meant,” he said to himself. “If she had not loved some one else better she would not have dismissed Ann elsey.” And “she did not encourage any of the yonng men there that was what the letter said, and it said he was to come at once. He had climbed out of the ditch and was bruelrng the dirt from his overalls with his bands. “Mr. Johnson,” he said, addressing the neighbor with whom he boarded, “ will you let me have your roan horse for a couple of weeks and use my colts while I’m gone? I’m going home and want to make the trip as quickly as possible, and neither of the colts can stand a hard jaunt under the caddie very well. 1*11 take good care of the roan and promise not to hurt him. If I do you may take your choice of the colts to pay the damage.” “What’s up?” “Folks sick?” "Why don’t you go to’Frisco and take the steamer?” came from ope and another of the crowd. “The fact is,” replied Krastut, with bis uaual straightforward honesty, “I have not got money enough. You fellows know how it u yourselves. Money tjon’t grow on these sand ridges umtfi

they are irrigated; bat I can ride through in fomr deyu by traveling late and early and resting in the hottest , part of the dnr, and not hurt the hone I a bit If Mr. Johnson will let me hare him, and it won't eost half as ranch as it will to go by the oan and boat" “Ton eon hare the horse if yon want him," replied Mr. Johnson. «I know yon wonrt hart him; but yon haven't told os yet who is siok or dead.' ' “There’s no one sink or dead, boys; but I’m going, and going to start tonight." “ Giri ran away with another fellowf" asked one of the men. with a grin. “No, my giurl hasn't run away with another fellow," replied the young man, with a laugh that some way reminded him of what he bad often coiled the “giggling” of the girls How could he help It when reminded so foroibly of what, np to the moment,' ho hardly realised', that instead of running away with another fellow as he had expected her to do, his girl had dismissed the other fellow because ’ of her love for him. funny, and withal brought such a delightfully warm fueling to his heart that it is no wonder he laughqd, or that the laugh was Just a trifle hysterical. What a terrible mistake there had been. What a wretch he was for not having spoken up when Annelsey first came courting Luoy, and so have saved all this suffering. How tender ms heart grew, thinking of her who had suffered so—who must have suffered so terribly all this time. Such were the thoughts 'that passed through tho young man’s mind as he walked rapidly towards his boarding place. But what if Uncle John was mistaken? He was half-way to the house when this thought came to him, and he stopped and stood perfectly still for some seconds, but not stiller than his heart seemed to have beconio. “At auyrato I’ll' know tho truth," he said aloud, and then mentally: " I played the coward onoe, I’ll not do it aga'n. Uncle John certainly meant me to understand that Lucy loved me well enough«to be my wife, and 1 would be a craven indeed not to ask herself now.” Going dircotly to the shed where the roan horse stood, he groomed him carefully, then went to the house and to the low room up-stairs where he slept. Hero he bathed and changed into his best suit, bodig careful to see that the few dollars in money which he possessed were in his pocket-book and in his pocket Meantime Mr. Johnson had left the ditch and gone to the little patch of ground a quarter of a mile away, which his wifo cultivated as a garden, where he knew her to be at work. When fold that Erastns was going on a visit to his old homo and would start at once, Mrs. Johnson hurried to the house and began preparing a meal before he should go.

pi on iim ot them asttea the young mmi any questions as to the cause of his sudden going, but both guessed that it was in some way connected with a love affair, and* were anxious to assist him in every way possible. Mr. Johnson offered to loan him all the monev he had, which was less than two dollars, and Mrs, Johnson fluttered around, trying to get something a little extra for him to eat, helping him with his necktie, and offering to do a dozen other things as if he had suddenly become a child, or what appeared more likely—was going to see his sweetheart, if not. indeed, to get married,. And all the time she was trying not to say anything that would show how very anxious she was to have him con tide in her, yet hoping greatly that he would do so. Erast us, in the'first flush of his newfound joy, was only restrained from showing Mr. Parsons' letter and making a clean breast of the whole affair by a lingering fear that Unole John might be mistaken. It was really very hard for him to keep from telling. Mr. and Mra. Johnson were the best friends he had here at the Slough, and ho knew they thought a good deal of him, and ho wanted to toll them what a lovely girl Lucy was, but could not quite bring himself to do so even when Mrs. Johnson remarked, as she fixed hi6 necktie, that she "supposed he would soon have some one else to do it for him now. ” and so ho left them wholly in doubt, and mounting the roan, rode away in the direction of the foot-hills of the Sierras. He curbed his own impatience and the desire of the spirited roan at the start, well knowing that time would be lost and not gained by fast riding for the first hour or two. The sun had long since set, when, having put thirty-five miles between himself and his starting-place, he dismounted, tethered his animal in a spot of wild oats a little off the road, rubbed him dpwfi with dry leaves and grass, and rolling himself iu a blanket lay down upon the ground. If his body was weary he was not aware of it, for his heart was filled with the sweetest hopes; and what sustains the physical powers like hope? As ho lay looking up at the stars, and watching the full moon coming slowly up from behind the distant hills ami climbing a sky that had not known a cloud for weeks and weeks, he recalled every incident of his life from the time when Mr. and Mrs. Parsons had taken him, a poor, outcast boy,do their home and their hearts.

He thought upon every act of Lucy's which appeared in any degree to indicate her feelings toward himself, and tried to place one against another, the unfavorable against the favorable, in such a way as to enable him to strike a balance and determine just what his ohances were, But in this he was conscious of failing, for there were many little instances—acts or words—the meaning of which he was utterly unable to determine, which he yet felt certain had a meaning if only he knew upon which side of his love account to place them. Besides, it was so very pleasant to fancy that the favorable ones outnumbered the others, if indeed there were any others, that he oonld not avoid going off into blissful waking dreams of the future, when he should have got his place at the Plough irrigated, and set in fruits, and have a cotbuilt. w ould have a oott age just like the one in iihe foot-hills, where they had all rnt so many pleasant days, he ught; the cottage now abandoned and going to deoay. Lucy would be by his sida always, and Uncle John and Aunt Martha should bring Johnny and live with them, their honored and beloved guests and all the misunderstandings and suffering of the past should be forgotten. And thus he lay and drew bright pictures of sweet days to come, until from waking dreams he passed to dreams which came in sleep, but they did not greatly differ from eaoh other; the music and *»he words were just the ssme-were love and Lucy; love and Lucy. Although the sun was not yet up, there was no dew upon his blanket or in h t hair when he awoke in the morning; for dew seldom falls in this portion of California! during the dry season. The roan horse had risen 'from his bed in the tall oats, and bad stretched himself and begun again to eat of the rich herbage. Krasins led him to drink at a crash which they had crossed but a little way back the night before, again rubbed him dc wo, and leaving him eating, walked to a rancher’s shanty, a quarter of a mile away, hi quasi of his own breakfast

He found toe CmiDv Jut sitting down to their own meat explained to them that 1m hod ridden late tho night before end. hod comped oat, ond woi given o cordial invitation to “draw o chair up to the table ond help himself,” which he verr promptly did.

Jnst before noon be stopped at a little town, pnt up at the hotel, fed and Tabbed down his steed, got h:s own dinner; end did not mount again until the greatest heat of the day was over. Then he poshed on at a rapid pace until an hour after sunset, when he again tethered bis horse and slept upon the ground, as he bad done the night before. The dtty following was a repetition of the one which preceded it, but its close found him well up in “the foot; hills, and he put up at the ootUge of a ranohor, with whom he had stayed over night when on his way to the Slough toe year before, In the morning he arose with one thought throbbing in brain and heart, “to-night I shall see her; to-night I shall know my fate.” He fed and groomed his horse as usual, but could scarcely wait for breakfast, which was not yet prepared when he returned from the stable- He had eaten a cold luneh for supper, but his impatienoe conquered all desire for food. He was counting the hours now, and the moments would drag themselves so until he was in the saddle again. Katherthan appear discourteous or strange, he waited for the morning meal to be prepared, but was off almost before bis host bad arisen from the table. He had ridden seventy-live miles the day before, and had feared the roan might feel a little stiff and sore at starting, but when he saw him come out of the stable with head up, apparently as anxious as himself to be off, this fear vanished, and he determined to push through the remaining forty miles wiihout halting. But he found the roads not so good as he had anticipated. He was now in a part of the foot-hills with whieh he was unacquainted, for he no longer followed the road ovor which he came tho year before, but struck across the country by a route whioh left the old home off to the left, and threw him further up towards the mountains, and when noon came he was still, from the best information he could get, fully fifteen miles from John Parsons’ shanty, and compassion for his horse induced him to stop at a rancher’s for feed and rest; so that with this delay and the trouble which ho experienced ih learning exaotly where the shanty was. even when within a few. miles of it. the afternoon was well nigh worn away when he reached the point where the by-road which led to it turned off from tl.e main track;asnd even then he was not certain of this being the place. •

lie had stopped ms dorse and was debating with himself whether to turn off or follow the main road yet farther, when he saw coming around the spur of the mountain, ana into the road over which he had just passed, her tor love of whom he had come, and the sight sent all the blood in his body surging to his heart, and for the moment he could neither have spoken nor moved. Evidently Lucy had not soen him pass, and was not now aware of his presence. She had gone to find the cows and drive them home to be milked, and was following along behind them as they busily moved homeward. She was dressed as Erast us had seen her oftenost in the olden time, in a light print dress and sun-bonnet. In her hand she carrier! a little crooked stick,* which she had picked up to drive the cows with, but was paying very little attention to them. Instead she* was gazing off upon the hills which stretched away and away, one above another, until they became snowcapped peaks that in the light of the falling sun looked like amethysts set into the cerulean blue of tho heavens. Had not the cows paused at sight of the man and horse standing in their path she might have reached his side before becoming aware of his presence, but when the cows stopped and stood with their great eyes staring with S*e least bit of surprise at what was not a very common sight to them in their mountain pasture*, she raised her stick and bid them "go-long.” Then seeing for the first time a gentleman standing by the roadside holding his home by the bridle, she blushed a little beneath her sun-bonnet, and dropping her eyes, followed closely after the cows, which had again lazily taken up their line of march. The blush whieh suffused her cheeks was not, however, owing to her having recognized the horseman, for she had not done so. She had only glanced at him and then dropped her eyes with a feeling of embarrassment, for |he seldom met gentlemen now, and however much poets may shag the charms of milkmaids in calico dresses, they will never be able to convince any member of the sex that they look their best in that role, any more* than can be taken from them their womanly desire to appear well in the eyes of the opposite sex, even though he be an entire stranger, as she supposed this one to be who stood waiting for her approach, presumably that he might inquire the way to some neigboriog rancher's shanty, or possibly if her parents would entertain him for the n’ghtWhen within a few paces she raised her eyes and turned her face towards him.

As she did so he spoke her same and took a step towards her. •‘Lucy!*' She stopped suddenly and the little crooked stick fell to the ground while both hands went to her lace pushing back the sun-bonnet. “Lucy, don’t you knowmffP I’ve come all the way back to see you; started the moment 1 got your father's let—that is the moment I learned you were not going to marry Mr. Annelsey. I love yon, Lucy—love you better than anybody or anything in all the world. ' I have always loved you ever since we were children together, and I want yon to be my wife." And she only said: ‘*Oh! ’Ras!” and put her hands to her feee and began to cry. “Lucy, Lucy, can't you love me?" pleaded her lover. “I know I am not rich like iik was. but I’ll love you always, love you better, it seems to me, than anybody else can love you. Can’t you love me," Luoy?" She put out one little aunbumed band and laid it on his arm. With the other she continued to hide her face. •Oh, ’Ras,” she sobbed. 1—I—do love you; I always d-did, but I thought father wa-wan-wan ted me to marry him, and that yon loved Julia Ennis, and then I didn’t care. Oh, ’Ras, I’m so glad you’ve come.” And she buried her faoe on his shoulder. fTO BE CONTINUED.] —The records that remain to us of the history, the conditions of life and the customs of the aboriginal possessors of the soil of Illinois are found mainly in the pages of the Colonial chronicler* of the Eighteenth Century.

WAITING TO BE SWINDLED. The “Smuggled Jewel” Dodge as Played on a Philadelphia Baker. The people ready to be swindled are far more numerous than the swindlers. One man offers to furnish. counterfeit currency at a low rate. A dozen tempted by their greed send forward their money and get back in due timo their boxes tilled with sawdust. One man pretends to have drawn a prize in a lottery. He will find a score quick to trust him with their cash in the vain hope of getting something for little or nothing. It is a fortunate provision of nature that there are so few rogues;; for if they boro any proportion to the number of dupes society would go to pieces. In Philadelphia, the other day, a man pretending to be a sailor went into a baker’s shop and asked for a person for whom he had bought some jewels in a foreign land. He was exhibiting the casket when in rushed an alleged pawnbroker, who, pronouncing the jewels worth $600, offered $160. The sailor demanded $260, and the pawnbroker went away for the money. The sailor soon after departed, when the pawnbrokercoming back upbraided the baker for letting the man go and took his departure, telling the baker to advance the sailor $100 and he would call and take the treasures off his hands. 1 he sailor, of course, came back, and said he had been frightened away because the goods had been smuggled* Fear of arrest induced him to offer the jewels to the baker for $80. He eagerly accepted, and that was the last he saw of money, sailor of pawnbroker. The “jewels” were worth fifty oents. —Detroit Fret freu,

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE; —For bums, apply flour wet with cold water, as it quickly gives relief.—Toledo BtaAt. —The worst phase of farming is plant*ng potatoes m the phase of the moon.— xV. JB. Banner* —Take no weeds to the compost heap that have seeds, but dispose of them by burning. —The New England Farmer recommends sowing rye thickly on rich soil in the latter part of August, cutting late in the season, and storing away in bundles, where it will be kept frozen, to be used daily as green food, thawed out and chopped hue, as a portion of the winter food for poultry. —Cattle turned into a rich pasture in June sometimes kill themselves from over-eating. It is much the same, also. If a cow gets loose at night in a stable and gains access to a meal barrel, and the reason is the same in both cases, viz., not enough food at regular times.— Troy Times. —Unwashed wool has brought more money pef fleece in the Chicago markets this season than washed wool, says the Tribune. This would indicate that the time has come when unwashed wool —not doctored—meets the best price of buyers and nets the most money to the producers. —Energy properly directed is what marks the successful as against the unsuccessful farmer; and energy properly directed is talent. Talent is the taking advantage of circumstances surrounaing your business or profession in life. Genius is the creating of something new; but the line that marks the division between talent and genius has never yet been discovered.—iv. T. Tribune. —The Ohio Society for the prevention of cruelty to animals recommends farmers, when threshing, to form shelter for the protection of stock in winter by setting crotched posts, topped with poles, on which to stack the straw. This primitive shelter would seem to leave the inference that the average Ohio farmer needed a good deal of education in rudimentary agriculture. •—The place which the pumpkin can be made to fill on the farm is an important one. As a food for cattle, it is excellent, and after removing the seed may be fed with profit to milch cows. Horses are fond of them. Hogs revel in their rich and appetizing juices. Sheep eat them with avidity. Chickens, ducks and geese feed on them at every opportunity. As a winter food for all kinds of stock they are excellent. Pumpkins are so easily raised, are so valuable, and are so easily kept till winter, that the farmer who fails to plant them neglects an important item in his farm economy. Plant and save pumpkins, and the result will be astonishing.—Exchange.

BREAD. Suggestions Relative to Its Baking—White and Dark Bread. Primarily, the object of baking is to bo change the dough as to make it palatable as food, and so that it will keep for a reasonable time, its preserving qualities depending on the dryness, to a great extent. It is by the expansion of the gas, produced by the fermentation, that the porosity of the bread is secured, increasing its digestibility. The fermentive process in the dough is arrested by the baking, since this cannot proceed after the heat is above 195 degrees Fah. That this gas may not escape before it has dope its work, it is desirable to have a sufficient heat to harden the crust, that the loaf may be expanded to the desirable extent. The solidity and firmness of this crust aids in retaining the form of the loaf, so that it may not “fall” and become less porous, or “soggy.” It is also true that this heat acts on the starch, effecting an important change in its digestibility, at the same time increasing its sweetness. In illustration of this, we may remember the special sweetness of the crusts, in our childhood, when thoroughly chewed—a part of which resulted from the action of the saliva on this staroh. And here I may remark that the sweetest of the fermented bread is made by baking a little early, or while the fermentation is passing through the first step, or in the dextrine and sugar stage, instead of waiting till the alcoholic stage begins and proceeds towards the putrefaction. Thorough baking also produces certain essential oils, increasing the palatableness, on the same principle that parched corn, roasted coffee ‘and various similar articles, are improved by the action of heat. To this I may add important changes in the albumen of the grain—the coagulation ef Vegetable albumen does not affect it as it does that of animal origin—and the fact that the starch is rendered still more soluble, more readily separating its particles, and of course becoming more digestible. A quick and hot oven is indispensable, at first, to a good bake, the heat ranging from 340 to 450 degreesJfah. After the first heat, the object of %hich is to sear and so harden the surface that none of the gas-bubbles can escape, after which the heat may be reduced, though kept sufficient to continue the cooking. As a general thing we do not bake our bread thoroughly, not more than two-thirds as much as tho Europeans do, and often even less. Good baking adds to it real • nourishment and its indigestibility. While we may pride* ourselves on our white and very light, vanity loaves, the Europeans have a substantial, wellbaked loaf of a decidedly dark, dim appearance, sweet and palatable.—/. H. Hanaford, in Golden Buie.

WALKING HORSES. I ' : ^- A Gait Which Should Bo Cultivated for the Benefit of Farmers. Fairs are called agricultural and iqe- , chanical fairs, and are supposed to be largely in the interests of fanners. It is the farmers that provide the articles that make up the shows, and it is they who pay a large part of the gate money and make up the crowds. But is it not true that horsemen play a very important part in the management and control of these fairs? The farmer is certainly interested in the development and improvement of the horse; but the improvement he should seek to make is not that which the average horseman endeavors to make. The latter is mainly interested in getting horses to run, trot or pace a mile in the quickest time possible. While it is well that speed in these gaits be developed, yet they altogether are of less importance in practical life than speed in walking. The fast runner is needed only in cases of distress or danger; the fast trotter or pacer is pre-eminently a pleasure horse; the fast walker is the horse for business on the country roads, the city streets and the farm. A horse that will walk a mile inside of twelve minutes is of more practical value to a farmer than one that can trot a mile in 2:40. The difference between & slow and a fast walking team on a farm makes the difference between plowing one and a half acres in a day or two; cultivating six acres of corn or eight; cutting ten acres of grass or twelve; going to town five miles away in one hour or taking two for it But how much pains do the fair associations take to develop this gait in horses by establishing walking races and giving premiums? If the farmers would serve their own interests and make these agricultural fairs of more practical yaltie, they would discountenance so much jockeying and scrub horse racing at the fairs ana add other and more elevating features,—Cohnan'* Jtural

To Prevent Pneumonia. As pneumonia is essentially a congestive disease, the best preventive measures are those which avo'd the causes of congestion. Pulmonary congestion is favored by too heavy clothing worn in Winter weather.' A serious error is the supposition that a double set of flannels worn next the skin atVords double protection. The fact is that in such a case the inner flannel absorbs all secretion and perspiration, which are there retained by the outer flannel. An almost poultice lise act on ts thus brought about, softening the skin and rendering it highly susceptible to the slightest exposure. Over-heated, ill-ventilated rooms, and the sudden trans.tion from these to the sharp outer air, are other avoidable predisposng causes of the d sease. He who uses a cold sponge bath—wish brisk rubbing every morning, who wears the lightest cloth ng consistent .with comfortable protection, and keeps his living-rooms well ventilated and at a mean temperature of deg., is employing the best preventive treatment of pneumonia known to sanitary science.—Lougregatiunilist.

Wanted His "Bawth.” The scene is laid at Reno, upon the arrival of the eastward-bound overland trail. Brit’sh Tourist—“Aw, baggagemawster, look ’ere, I want me bawth, you know.” Baggageman—“What your bath? 1 ain’t got no bath.” B. T.—“O, yes, you know. It's hover there in one o’ me boxes, you know. ’Ere’s the brasses*”. [Tendering the baggage cheeks, j B.—‘‘Where are you going?” B. T.—“Hi'm going to New York, you know.” B.—“Well, you can't get at that baggage now.” B. T.— “Ah, but I must, you know. I must ’are me bawth. H in the son of a Duke, you kniw.” B.—-“Don’tmake no difference.. If you were the son of a gun, you couldn’t get at that baggage how.” [Exit British tourist in horror.]—Chicago Tribune. Drying Off Cows. If cows are not properly dried oil, if milk in .considerable amount is allowed to collect and remain in the udder after ceasing to milk regularly there is great danger from permanent obstruction of tlie milk How in future. In drying off cows it is well to skip milking a few time before ceasing entirely. If the ijuautity secreted is not large nature may be able to take care of it by absorbing it again into the system, but if the how is large the absorbing vessels are unab’.e to dispose of the excess and the milk then becomes as a foreign substance, to be disposed of in the ntrxt best way not to endanger the l fe of the animal. The milk may become cheesey and the elieesey matter may fill the ducts and permanently close them to the flow of milk. It is a good rule to milk a drying up cow just often enough to keep the milk ducts free from clotted milk.- As\ cubing time approaches extra care should be taken to see that the udder does not become too much crowded with milk. —N. E. Fanner.

A Growing Appetite. Lawyer—For th - life of rue I can’t see what attraction people iind in this stup’d game of base ball. Some day I think I’ll go out to see them make fools of themselves.

Policeman—Say, >ou old duikers, we don’t want any of thi. here hoodlum business here. I’ll tiro you out if you don’t shut up.—Memjhi< Times. —I.u’gt Bonomi, a priest, who, with several- missionaries and s'store were held captive by the Mehdi.has returned to Rome. When the Mehdi tried to turn the Christians to the Moslem faith Bonomi answered for all, saying: ••You are not a prophet; if \ on are. “show it with less talk and more deeds, llore is a good opportunity for you. You have so many soldiers here. Feed them all with one goat, and we shall believe that you are a prophet which you say you are. Take my head. I do not care. I know yon are an impostor.” Since his return to Italy Bonomi has been much lionized A Sad Case of Poisoning fa that of any man or woman afflictedjwith disease or derangement of the liver, resulting in poisonous accumulations in the blood, scrofulous affections, sick-head-aches, and diseases of the kidneys, lungs or heart. These troubles can be cured only by going to the primary cause, and putting the liver in a healthy condition. To accomplish this result speedily and effectually nothing has proved itself so efficacious as Dr. Pierce’s “Golden Medical Discovery," which has never failed to do the work claimed for it, and never will.

DR. JOHN BULL’S Sffli’s Tonic $yri FOR THE CURE OF FEVER and AGUE Or CHILLS and FEVER, AND ALL MALARIAL DISEASES. The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly claims forit a superiority over all remi. edits ever offered to the public for the SAFE, CERTAIN, SPEEDY and PERMANENT cur* of Ague and Fever,or Chillsand Fever,whether of short or long standing. He'refers to the I entire Western and Southern country to bear 1 him testimony to the truth of the assertion that iu no case whatever will It fail to euro if the dircc'.iSnsare strictly followedand carried cut. In a great many cases a single dose ha* been sufficient for a cure, and whole families have been cured bra single bottle, with a perfect restoration of the general health. It is, however.prudent.and incvorycase more certain to cure, if its r.3e is continued in smaller doses for a week, or two after the disease has been checked, more especially in difficult and i long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in good order. Sbcuid the patient, however, requires cathartic medicine, afterhaving taken throe or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of KENT'S VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be sufficient! Use no other. DR.

ECZEMA! My wife bas been sorely afflicted with Eczema or Salt Rheum from infancy. Wo tried every known remedy, but to no avail. She was also afflicted with a periodical nervous headache, sometimes followed by an intermittent fever, so that her life became a burden to her. Finally 1 determined to try S. S. S. She commenced seven weeks ago. After the third bottle the inflammation disappeared, and sore spots dried up and turned white and scaly, and finally she brushed them off inan impalpable white powder resembling pure salt. Sheds now taking the sixth bottle; every appearance of the disease is gone ami her flesh is soft and white as a child's. Her headaches havedlsappesred and she enjoys the only good health she has known in 40 years. No wonder she deems every bottle of S. S.S. is worth a thousand times its weight in gold. JOHN F. BRADLEY.
