It is well known and insontroyertiblo fact
that the use Of Tobacco is the promoting cause of

subj cct, as car ul analysis and long and painful
expert nee have clearly proven that it contains
certain narcotic and poisonous properties most
dangerous in their effect, which by entering into
the blood dcrunges the functions and operations
Of the heart, causing many to suppose that organ
to be seriously diseased.
TOBACCO affects also the entire nervous sys-
ten mnniiesting itself--as all who have used the
noXous weed will bear testinony--in Lussitudc
Nervous luiubility, Water Brash, Dyspepsia, q
many other disorders of q similar chara ter
THE TASTE RESTORATIVE TROCHES are
designed to counteraCt these baneful influences,
and have proved completed, successful in a null
tltude Of cases, and wherever used. Being harm
less in themselves they exert n beneficial effect
upon the entire system, restoring the Taste which
has become yitated or destroyed by great indul-
gencc, completely removing the irritation and
accompanying tickling tcnsution Of the Throas
which are always consequent upon the abstoiniuy
from the use Of Tobacco. and by gvn health

VALUE or CLOVER HAY-H Capron, of
Illinois, who has been largely concerned in
the dairy business, (haying soldsiXty thou
sand dollars worth OF milk in a single
year, informs the Country Gentlemen that
he made accurate experiments to test
the comparative value Of timothy and
clover. These experiments, extending
through period of twoyears, We're accom-
panied with an accurate weighing and
measuring, and the food was changed
timothy to clover, and vice versa, once a
month, and the results were that the clio
yer hay yielded ten per cent. more than
the timothy. 1t will be observed that this
was not a single experiment, but series
OF experiments, extending for a long peri
od. 1t is proper to state that the hay was
well cured.
