FRUITS AND VEGETABLES.
Among scientitic men who have made long - evity a study, it is almost unanimously agreed that a fruit and vegetable diet is conducive to long life and perfect health. And it is among the vegetable kingdom that we find our principal means of restoring health to the invalid, and strength to the weak. In olden times, when centenarians were common, and men of 60 years of age were considered useful, herb doctors were the only physicians. Dr. Guysoft’s Yellow Dock and Sarsaprilla, with the exception of one ingredient, and that is iron, it strictly a vegetable compound, and is not injurious to ,he most delicate person. Its effect on the general system is most wonderful. It gives real strength to every part of the body, and its soothing effect in quieting the brain and nervous system, is most remarkable. Its principal ingredients are Yellow Dock, Sarsaparilla, Juniper, Iron, Buchu, Celery, and Calisaya bark. Where the disease is of an exhaustive natere, it quickly cheeks all decay. In cases of dyspepsia it does not act as a severe cathartic, but gives real strength to the digestive organs, and thus permanently cures this distressful disease.
John I. Davenport tells a story apropos of Jay Gould’s late exposition of his securities. As he was coming along to the depot, satchel in hand, a ward “bummer” met him and wanted to know where he was going. “To Washington,” answered Davenport, promtly. “Am sorry you can’t stay and see our spring opening,” said the bum. “What spring opening?” ‘ Why, Charley Brooke, Pat Jones and Colonel Fellows are going to open our their securities next Monday and the boys are going to be on hand to see ’em.” Mr. Samuel Dodron, of Love'and, 0., writes: “I think I have cause to be glad. Afflicted for years with painful kidney troubles and ehronio dyspepsia, I was induced to give Dr. Guysott’s Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla a trial. The very first dose seemed to reach the right spot, I don’t know what a back-ache or sour stomach now is.” Lady Wilde receives “intellects” every Saturday in a darkened room, dimly lighted by rose shaded lamps, tea and refreshments being served. On these occasions Oscar’s elder brother, Willie, is the soul of the entertainment, chatting learnedly to one and another, and giving, when requested, imitations of Irish life and dialect.
