ALMOST DIVORCE CASE. The New York News
mentions that malicious bridesmaid played very
handsome joke off upon newly welded couple.
She put them upon clock-bedstead and wound it
up for '.four." The alarm OF the young couple
may be imagined but not described when in the
midst of the lady's first sleep she was awakened
by the horrible din of the alarum minging with
the husbands what's that and before she was
thoroughly awake she was violently tossed on the
floor. Jumping up, she ran to her friends room,
crying: 8

speak to him again-he's monster"
"Good gracious I" cried her friend Libby, in af.
fected astonshment: What's the matter dear,

sHe-he-he--" sobbed the weeping BRIDE
and stopped. s l8 gtfw

The matter was, however, explained, and there
has been no divorce.

IN al PINE HILL, March 4, 1854
DEAR SIR: I have been subject of Dyspepsia, in
its worst FORM for the last FIVE years. Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
ali who saw me said must die. While in this con-
dition was carried to the watering places in Vir-
ginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken While
on my way home stopped week at Rutherfordton,
small village in North Carolina to try the effect Of
some Chalybcate water in that place. About the last
of the week went into drug store to get some med
cine for my child and myself There were several
of the village physicians in the store, and one OF them
seemed to take some interest in my case, and after
asking some questions, said he had been dys-
peptc and had been greatly benefited by the use Of
hHoofands German Btters, prepared by yen, and
he insisted that would try the Bitters He also
called the next day at my ROOM and insisted so much
that would try them that asked him TO get me
one bottle He did it, and commenced taking it as
directed and was more benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken.
After reaching home, one Of my neighbors came to
me for prescription and medicine, Che dyspeptc,)
and gave him nearly all the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his He has often called
on me for more of the kind of medicine, saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken but have not been able TO get any more for
him or myself since. Will you therefore, please ship
me a dozen or more as soon as possible.
Respectfully yours, w. SMITH.
