Vegetable Anti Bilious pills.

For the cure of all bilious diseases, impuri-
ties Of blood indigestion, liver complaint, sick
headache, fevers, colds. jaundice, dyspepsia, fc-
male complaints, and a general cathartc.
In the treatment Of bilious fever, jaundice,
and all other diseases of the alimentary canal
or general health, which is caused by an affec-
ton of the liver portal circle, these pills are
invaluable.
For jaundice, take one or two pills every
night. Should there be loss of appetite, or
general debility or languor, use the bitters I'M
til these symptoms are removed
These pills may be taken in all cases where
| an aperient Alternative or cathartic is required.
Dyspepsia and liver complaint, with all their
attendant evils, can positively be cured by a
persevering use of these pills in connection
with the bitters. When cough exists in con-
nection with any disease for which these pills
are recommended, take the Pectoral Syrup of
Wild Cherry, prepared by the proprietor, and
the patient will be thoroughly and radically
Pcured. These pills being of vegetable origin,
no injurious effects will be produced under any
circumstances by their use. Adults or chill
dren can take them constantly when required.
The dose for a child three or four years old,
from one to two pills and for children eight
or nine years old, from two to three pills at
bedtime.
Females will find these pills very mild and
uniform in their operations, and the very med
icine needed by large class of females.
Let all remember that the Great Western
Pills are designed expressly for use in bilious
climates, and are far better than those put up
in the east. where little is known in regard to
the peculiar diseases of the climate.

The New York Herald has something

years 248. 324 and 500 Of the Christian
Era, remarkable comets are recorded 10
have appeared; and in the year 1OO6 one
is described TO have presented a fright(ul
aspect, exhibiting an enormous curved
tail, in the form Of a scythe. The appear
ance Of the comet of 456 spread eonster
nation throughout Europe. The same
comet returned again in 1881, and 1901;
and il is recorded that. in 1880, a won
derful comet appeared, which, by its
splsndOr aud swiflness, excited the great
est interest throughout the world. New
ton examined this remarkable comet with
great attention, and was led by the gener
al laws Of motion Of bodies in free space,
as we'll as by his own particular observa-
tions, 10 conclude that the orbits Of COM
cts must, like those ofplanets. be ellipses
having the sur in one locus. but far more
exeentfie, having their aphelions or great
est distance from the sun, far remote in
the regions Of space. The idea thus spo-
ken Of by Newton. as also the observations
upon comets by Tycho Brahe. were taken
up by DR.. Haley. who collated the obser-
vati6ns which have been mads touching
the appearances and aspect Of comets from
the primitive ages down to his own time,
and found that, with but few exceptions
they had passed within less the earth's
shortest defiance from The sun. some Of
them within less than one third oft aud
others about one-half. He examined
with much care the comet Of 1888, and
discovered q wonderful resemblance be-

BIrrER CREAM.-lt is known general.
ly that cream becomes bitter from
standing too long on the milk, This is
often tie case, but ia net uufrequently be-
comes so when only allowed TO remain
twenty four hours. The best prevenla,
tive is to place the milk on the stove in
a tin pan as soon as il is strained, and
let it almost boil. This will not pre-
vent the cream from rising. Milk thus
partially scalded will keep much longer
than otherwise. When the whole milk
is TO be used without skimming. it is
preferable to scsld it when FIRST received
from che milkman, The only exception
10 this plan is when tho milk will not
bsar the heat without cnrdling--a cir.
cumstance not unirequent, as those who
buy city milk can abundantly testify.
