A RECIPE WORTH One THOUSAND DOLLARS
Take one pound of salsoda and half pound of
unslacked lime, put them in gallon of water
and boil twenty minutes; let it stand till cool,
then drain off, and put it in a stone jug or jar.
Soak your dirty clothes over night, or until they
are well wet through; then wiring them out and
rub on plenty of soap, and to one boiler of
clothes well covered over with water, add one
tea spoonful of washing fluid. Boil half an hour
briskly, then wash them thoroughly through
one snds. and rinse we'll through waters, and
your clothes will look better than the old way
of washing twice before boiling. This is an
invaluable recipe, and do want every poor
tired woman to try it. The woman who can
keep secret has known this year or two, but
her husband told it when on an electioneerlng
tour.-Ohio CultieGtor.

READ AND REFLECT.

If there's an hereafter,
(And that there is conscience, uninfluenced,
And suffered to speak out tells every man,
Then it is awful thing to die,
More horrid yet to die at ones own hand.
Shall Nature, swerving from her earliest tdictate,
Self preservation, fall by its own act?
Forbid it Heaveni
The indulgence in secret pratice is the most
certain, though not always the most immedi-
ate and direct, avenue to destruction Physi-
clans of all ages have been most unanimously
of opinion that the loss of one ounce of semi
nal secretions, by unnatural aid or emissions,
weakenS the system more than the abstraction
of forty ounces of blood. One of the FIRST
writer's on medical jurisprudence states that
three -fourths of the insane owe their malady to
such abuse
How important, then, it is for every one hav-
ing the least cause to suspect any trouble in
that way, to attend to it Immediately; even
one single occurrence should be sufficient to
cause doubt, and much more so if the person
had ever indulged in the soul-killing habit
The treatment pursued by the justly celebrated
Dr. J. G.. Young in cases of seminal weakness,
mpotency, sterility, nervous debility and pa
ralysis, the last is the most dangerous and
when it once occurs, incurable,) is not surpass-
ed by any Physician in the country. 1t is the
same as that followed by him for years. under
the guidance of the world-renouned RicOrd of
Paris, and Acton of London. DR.. Youngs Office
is at the corner of Montgomery and California
Streets, where he can be consulted on that and
all other private diseases, with the utmost con-
fdence and secrecy DIR. Young will warrant

IMPORTANT to Miners, Trarclers, DC
There is no malady of deeper Importance,
either in medical or moral point of view, to
which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections.
As medical man, it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as it affects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti-
gate, as far lies in his power, the bodily suf-
fering Human nature at best is but frail all
are liable to misfortune.
Of all the ills that affect man, none are more
terrible than those of a private nature. Dread
ful it is in the person who contracts it
frightful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
tion ending frequently in destruction and
loathsome grave, it becomes of still greater i'm
portance when it is transmitted to innocent off,
! spring Such being the case, how necessary it
becomes that every one having the least reason
to fear that they have contracted the disease.
should attend to it at once, by consulting some
physician, whose responsibility and education
enables him to warrant safe, speedy and per-
manent cure. In accordance with this necessi-
ty. DIR. YOUNG feels called upon to state
that by long study and extensive practice. he
has become perfect master of all those diseases
which come under the denomination of venereal.
and having paid more attention to that branch
than any other physician in the United States.
he feels himself better qualified to treat them.
Syphilis in all its forms, such as Swelling of
the Groins, Ulcers, Ulcers in the Throat, Sec
ondary Syphilis Cutaneous Eruptions, UIcera-
tions, Tertiary Syphilis Syphilis in Children,
Mercurial Syphiltic Affections, Gonorrhua,
elect Structures, False Passages, Inflammation
of the Bladder and PROSTATE Glands, Excoria-
tions Tumors, Pustues, ETC., are as familiar to
him as the most common things of daily obser-
vation.
The Doctor effects cure in recent cases in
few days, and finds no difficulty in curing those
of long duration, without submitting the pa
tient to such treatment as will draw upon him
the slightest suspicion or oblige him to neglect
his business, whether within doors or without.
The diet need not be changed, except in cases
Of severe inflammation. There are in California,
patients, amounting to over two thousand in
the past year, that could furnish proof of this;
but these are matters that require the incest

For the Independent
A Certain Office-Seeker.

How yielding and servicable he is at a cer-
tain season Of the year, What an entire change
In mantle constitutional elements of whose
soul, few months ago, was-a dollar and a
dirty trick. Now, how smooth and affably So
hcitous for the well-being of his fellow citizens.
His patriotism seems only to be equalled by the
pliability of his conscience. He takes hold of
your right hand with his left because it looks
familiar and is nearest his heart His shirt is
soiled with the dust of the road, and his horse
is jaded carrying its rider from village to vii
lage attending to the affairs Of the State. His
gait when walking, is erect and majestic his
head slightly leaning to one side and inclinine
forward, showing preponderance of intellect
He is particularly attentive to children, show
ing that he does not neglect small things He
appears to be deeply engaged in thought, and
IN an eminent degree, possesses the knack oi
explaining nothing by expressing it. The grav-
lty OF the muscles of his face rarely disturbed
by hearty laugh; and while he listens to the
remarks of others, as a matter of courtesy he
uses the tooth-pick freely, and innocently mods
assent to anything they say Abusive asper-
sions of others must be taken for vindication
of himself. The immensity of his conceptions
have severe effect upon his eyes,-turning
them solemnly upward, and with vague uncon-
scientiousness his under lip approaches his up
per teeth as if muttering the first syllable of
Office" or the second of " "convention." An
allusion to the frailty of the body-politic in
spires the rallying CLEAN of hope on his coun-
tenance that he may be able to remove its suf-
fering, by speculating in its inirmities. His
speeches are short string of accidentally
picked-up, second-handed, third-rate opinions,
and the gist of them are eternal prisoners in the
dungeon of his upper-story.
His friends recommend him to discontinue
his practice at the BAR, and trade off his die
tionary for a sluice.f fork. HIS FRIEND.
