hoy Let no false deicacy prevent the inva-
lid from seeking medical relief-the card of Dr.
r. ]. Czapkay, to be found in another column
indicates where to obtain a reliable and COM
petent physician. 1t is seldom that we are called
nnon to bear testimony in favor of the skill of
the nhysician, but sense of duty as well as
instice demands that we should not pass Dr.
Czapkay by, without something more than
mere mention. Unlike the greater portion of
those who thrust themselves and their nostrums
before the public, whose practices are empirical
DIR. Czapkay is gentleman of rare medical and
scientific attain ments, having held the position
of chief surgeon of the liberating army during
the late Hungarian Revolution; and is possessed
of all the requisite experience and skill for the
successful practice of his profession 1t is to the
care and advice of such physician we would
commend all suffering from the effects of sexual
or private disease, feeling assured that in all
such complaints, whether arising from infection,
ndiscreton, self-abuse, or loss of viriity, he can
guarantee, from his extensive practice, speedy
and permanent cure. To those suffering from
the effects of physical and mental debility, we
would say, let common sense take the place of
false modesty and seek such advice as will save
you from an urtimely grave, and lead you back
again to priytine health, consult DR.. Czapkay,
whom we c2eerfully endorse as skillful and
tried physician, capable of coping with and sue
cessfuIy eradcatng those self-inflicted miseries,
the evils of empirical practice and all diseases
of seminal nature. DR.. Czapkay's rooms are

The ELDER BUsH-VALUABLE HIST.-It is no
known to many persons that the common elder
bush OF our country is great safeguard to
plants against the devastation of bugs. If any
one will notice. it will be found that worms flies
bugs, or insects never touch the elder. This fact
was the initial point for an Englishman in 1874
and he communicated the result of his expert.
ments to the London Magazine. Accident ex-
humed this old work, and Kentucky CORES.
pondent last year communicated TO the Dollq,
Newspaper copy of the article. The practical
results OF the experiments as asserted by the
Essfish experimeuter are, that the leaves of the
eider, Scattered over cabbages, squashes, cucum-
bers, and other plants subject to the ravishes OF
insects, effectually shields them. The plum, and
other fruits subject to the ravishes of insects,
may be saved by placing upon the branches and
through the tree punches of elder leaves.

Bsl3% No machine has yet been invented which
can make perfect file. The file-cutter, with a
small hammer, can cut notch after notch into a
piece of softened steel, without guide or guage
even to the number of hundred notches in
an inch. 1t is one out of many things in which
skilled labor triumphs over the uniformity of
operation which belongs to machine. The
cutting OF lilies in Great Britain alone gives en-
ployment, it is said, to more than six thousand
persons. This is one Of the many instances in
which it is evident that the application of ma
chinery to the arts calls into action an almost
infinite variety of handicrafts Attempts have
been made, in innumerable instances, to devise
n machine that would produce files equal in
workmanship to those made by hand, but moth
ing has yet been brought forward that seems
entirely to answer the purpose.

CLUB HOUSE GIN.
TO THE PUBLIC.

THIS CELEBRATED GIN-pretending to
i nothing but what it is, viz: pure and un-
adulterated article, and assuming no artificial
merits of what it is not, as some of its rival mi-
tators do-after five years of public approval
and very extensive sales in California, has been
pronounced by the public to be superior, not on
ly as beverage of general use, to any other ar
tlcle competing against it, bnt is
Unrivalled in it's Medical Efficiency
in most cases of complaint. Topersons travel
ing in these days of rapid transit from East to
west, North to South, who are constantly chang
ing their water rs well as their climate; who are
drinking, indeed dozen kinds of water in ev-
cry twenty-four hours, and each draft contain
ing some property acting in chemical antaeonism
to the preceding one, thereby causing an unnat-
ural degree of excitement to the stomach-it is
positively and absolutely necessary to use
counteracting agent. From the fact that the
"London Club House Gin"
Is prepared expressly to meet such exieencies.
and to act as we know it will act, as an anti
dote, we confidently prescribe it as the very best
article in the country. The name of " Aromatic
ocheidam Schnapps' has never been attached
IN any way to this article. In first presenting
the
"LondOn Club House Gin"
to the public, my aim was to give them pure
and unadulterated article of Gin, and to call II
by its right name. The success ATTENDING its
introduction and extensive sale in California is
sufficient guarantee of the high appreciation
of the article by consumers.
Various parties have from time to time nut un
and shipped to California an article which tbev
call "Club House Gin" My Gin, which has
gained such reputation in California is brand

The Aromatic schiedam schnapps

Is consequently in great demand by persons
travelling, or about to settle in new parts of the
country especially, as we'll as by many in every
community, where it has become known, on
account of its various other remedial properties.
In all cases of a Dropsical tendency it is gen.
orally the only remedy required. when adopted
in the early stage of the disease.
In Dyspepsia maladies, when taken in proper
quantities, as a diet drink and especially at
dinner, it is found, by uniform experience, to be
emnently efficacious in the most obstinate cases,
when even the best of the usual remedies have
failed to afford more than temporary relief In
cases of Flatulency, it is an immediate and in
variable specific, and it may be administered in
diluted and proportonate quantities, even to
Young Infants, in all those paroxysms of gripping
pain in the stomach and bowels to which they
are especially subject, as well as in the collie of
grown persons.
Its judicious adoption in connection with the
principal meals, or when a sense of exhaustion
dictates its use never fails to relieve the debil-
ty attendant upon protracted chronic maladies,
low temperament and exhausted vital energy, by
whatever cause induced. These are facts to
which many of the most eminent medical men,
both in England and the United States, have
borne testimony, and which are corroborated by
the highest written authorities.
Put up in quart and pint bottles in cases of
one dozen, with my name on the bottles cork,
and facsimile of my signature on the label.

individuals but States-the application of legis-
lative principles to snch body of States-and

The sun hasn't dared to set since, but merely
retired behind the clouds.
