Well, it is we'll known to the Agents, espe-
cially in the Western Ststes.that whole families
of or persons have been cured by one single
bottle! In vast jOrity of instances one
bottle has cured l, 2, 8 and a persons! The
Average here would give THREE cases to every

by this inestimable remedy!!!
Now, common sense dictates the proprety

GREAT CLOCK AT STRAsBIJRG

ana about thirty feet wide and fifteen feet deep-
Around me are many strangers, waiting to see the
working of this clock when it strikes the hour of
noon. Every eye is upon the clock 1t now wants
hVe minutes OF twelve. The clock has struck, and
mo people are gone, except few whom the sexton.
or head man witha wand and sword, is conducting

on the lett strikes the first quarter that on the
right Inc second quarter. Some fifty feet over the
dia, IN large mitch, is huge figure of Time
bell in his left, sythe in his RIGHT hand. In front
STANDS hgure OF young man with mallet, who
strikes The third quarter the bell in the hand of

ROUND Dehlnd Time; out comes an old man with
maliet and places himself in front of him. As the
nour OF WE'VE comes the old man raises his mallet,
ana deliberately strikes twelve times on the bell,
that echoes through the building, and is heard ali
around the region Of the church. Then the old
man glides slowly behind Father Time, and the
young comes round again. Soon as the old man
mas struck twelve and dsa ppeared, another set of
niochihery is put IN motion, some twenty feet high
er still. II is thus: there is a high cross with an
image of Christ on it. The instant twelve has
struck one of the apostles walks out from behind,
comes in front, turns facing the cross, bows, and
walks on around TO his place. AS he does so, a.
mother comes out in front, turns, bows, and passes
IN So twelve apostles, figures as large as life,
walk round, bow, and pass on. AS the last ap-
pears an enormous cock, perched on the pinnacle
OF the clock, slowly flaps lis WINGS stretches forth
Its neck, and crows three times, SO loud TO be
heard outside the church, to some distance, and SO
naturally as to be mistaken for real cock. Then
all is silent as death. No wonder this clock is the
admiration OF Europe. 1t was made in 1871, and
has performed these mechanical wonoers ever since,
except about fifty years, when it stood out of re-

INDIAN CORN FOR SOILING AND
EnnnER

We doubt whether the the value of Indian corn
is more than half known, yet, among the generali-
ty Of farmers and if the unparalleled drought
throughout the country last summer should have a
tendency to teach it to them, the terrible lesson
may be looked upon as mercy rather than great
scourge, from benifcent Providence. During
the past eight months thousands of animals haYe
persisted or been sacrificed for want of grass fod-
der 10 sustain them, all Of which might have been
saved and kept in good condition, had each farmer
sowed few acres of corn for soing and fodder
We saw, last summer, on light sandy soil, crop
of corn growing, which turned out six tons of ex
cellent dry fodder per acre. 1t was sown on the
first day OF July in drills three feet apart. The
land was plowed Deep and highly MANFRED. This
crop was the meals of saving superior flock OF
cows from starvation. Henceforth, however prom
sing the grass and hay crop may be, let no farmer
depend entirely upon it, but let him SOW a few a.
ores of corn for song, or to be cured for winters
use lie will then be tolerably independent of a
capricious season. If the land be rich and proper
" prepared for corn, it will be sure 10 come up and
grow, however dry it mey be, provided the seed be
prepared by sleeping it in guano or salt petre wa
Ter, or some other cheap solution. When corn ls
toerably advanced in its growth, it completely
shades the ground, and the drought will have but
lutte effect upon it. A larger crop may usually be
grown in drills than when sown broadcast; and II
these drills be about two or two and half fee
apart, we believe it will be found better than near
