10 recur after the usual intervals, and with the
usual degree of violence. This state oil things
continued until the child reached her Bird ear

Dr. john B. Ho,ceH,
DEAR StR--You have requested my opinion
on the character of your Vegetable Family
Pills. la reply, am able TO state that have
made use OF them Tor n number OF years in my
own par,icula, use, besides administering them
o. great mum Der of persons under a variety of
firms OF disease, and always with the happ;est
results. One particular and remarkable case
was that ot Miss S.. This lady was afflict-
ed, for period Of two years, with glandular
swellings of very Imge size, which, after be-
ing fully developed, broke and discharged a
great deal of matter hy which she was reduced
to a very low and weakly state. The approac CHI
of the tumors was announced by pricking sen.
saton or itching on the surface, inflammation
then proceeded rapidly, until they were fully
formed. Whenever the itcning was perceived,
her practice was to take one pill, aud by the
use of The pills ioi twelve weeks, taking only
two a week, the growth OF The tumors was ar
rested mad thel. subsequent appearance en-
iirey prevented after which she continued 10
mend. and gained strength very rapidly. Pre-
vious 10 this, she had been attended by very
respectable medical gentle man, but without ef.
fect--and TO the use of the Family Pills alone,
l do not hesitate to ascribe her extraordinary
restoration.
Ano,her case was u'd' VI u chiiu SuoJect 10

ding them as valuable medicine in the afo:e

With sentiments ofesteem,
Respectfully yours,

P. S. II may not be improper to superadd,

GREEN VEGETABLES roR MANURE.

No good farmer or gardener will permit,
when he can well avoid II, weeds, nor indeed
any other vegetable or animal matter to dry or
rot above ground. In hoeng corn. ii, better
TO bury the weeds as you proceed than leave
'hem on the top OF the ground-ln gardening,
WHEN you have collected mass OF weeds, throw
over them sufficient quantity of soil 10 keep
them from The air aud absorb the products of
their decomposition. Make small heaps OF
wecds IN baks or alleys. and cover them with
earth, aud IN short time they will give you
beds oil compost mannre. Greer fern brakes |
is recommended by Mr.. Knigbtas very useful
inr this purpose. as they contain more eriiliZng
matter or food for plants, than most vege,a
hles. Mr., Knight says, +" any given quantity
OF vegetable matter eau generally be employed
IN lis recent aud organized state with much
more advantage than when il has been decom.
posed, aud no nsilerable part OF its compo.
