ImDOrtapt to Tobacco. GheWerS
DIR. GUSTAV LINNARD'S
TASTE RESTORATIVE TROCHEe,

THE GREAT SUBSTITUTE Fer TOBACCO.
TT ia well known and incontroyertible fact
i that the use of Tobacco is the promoting
cause of many of the most severe
Mental ana Physical Disorders
to which the race of man il subject. as careful
analysis and long and painful experience have
clearly proven that it contains certain narcotic
and poisonous properties, most dangerous in
their effects, which by entering into the blood
derange the functions and operations of the
heart, causing many to suppose that the organ
to be seriously diseased.
Tobacco affect. also the entire nervous sys-
tenn, manifesting itself-as all who have used
the no1ious weed will bear testimony-in Las
situde Nervous Irritability, Water Brash, Dys.
pepsia, and many other disorders Of . similar
character.
The Taste Restorative 7roches
are designed to counteract these baneful inhu-
ences, and have proved completely successful in
a multitude of cases, and wherever used. Being
harmless in themselves, they exert beneficial
effect upon the entire system, restoring the taste
which has become vitiated or DESTROYED by great
indulgence, completely removing the irritation
and accompanying tickling sensation of the
throat-which are always consequent upon alb
staining from the use of Toba eco, and BY giving
healthy tone to the stomach, invigorates the
whole system.
Persons who are irretrievably undermining
their constitutions and shortening their lives,
should use these Troches Immediately and throw
off the injurious and unpleasant habit Of To-
bacco Chewing.
These Troches or Lozenges are put up in 4
convenient and portable form at the low price
of SO cents per box liberal discount to the
trade. Prepared solely by the undersigned, to
whom all orders should be addressed.

A New way Of Paying SLbscriptions

A correspondent gives the following
amusing account of the way a farmer
was taught how cheaply he could take
the paper. The lesson Is worth ponder
ing by good many men we 'swot Of"
Yea have hens at home of course,
Well, l will send you my paper one
year for the proceeds of single hen
for one season, merely the proceeds
It seems preposterous to imagine the
products cf single hen will pay the
subscription; perhaps it won't, but l
make the Offer"
"Done," exclaimed farmer B.;
81 agree to it." and appealed to me As
witness to the fact.
The farmer went away apparently
much elated with the conquest, and the
editor went on his way rejoicing.
Time rolled around, and the world
revolved on it's axis, and the sun moved
in its orbit just az it formerly did, the
farmer received his paper regularly, and
RECALLED himself with the information
from it. He not only knew the affairs
of his own country, but became con-
versant upon the leading topics of the
day, and the political and financial con-
vulsions of the times. His children de-
lighted too lin perusing the contents of
their weekly visitor In short, he said,
che was surprised at the progress in
himself and family in general informa-
ton"
Sometime in the month Of Septem-
Der, happened up again in the Office,
when who should enter but our old friend
farmer 3 --,
Glow do you do, Mr.. B-?'-
said the editor, extending his hand,
and his countenance lit up with bland
smile; "take chair sir, and be seated;
fine weather we have"
eyes, SIR" qnite fine indeed" an
swered the farmer, shaking the proffsr-
ed "paw'' Of the editor, and then a
short silence ensued, during which our
friend B hitcked his chair back
ward and forward, twirl;ng his thumbs
abstractediy, and spit profusely. Start
ing up quickly, he said, addressing the
editor:
"Mr. D, have brought you
the proceeds Of that hem"
1t was amusing to see the peculiar
expression Of the editor as he followed
the farmer down to the wagon. |
could hardly keep my risibles down.
When at the wagon, the farmer COM
mence ed handing over to the editor the
products of the hen, which on being
counted, amounted to eighteen pullets,
worth shilling each, and a number Of
dozen ofeggs, making in the aggregate,
st the least calculation, So so, one dol
lar more than the price of the paper.
'sNo need" said he, "of men not TAX
ing family newspaper, and paying for
it, too. / don't miss this from my
roost, yet have paid for years sub
scription, and a dollar over. All folly,
sir; there is no man but can take a pa
per; it's charity, sir; charity, you know,
commences at home"
s'But," resumed the editor, II will
pay for what is over the subscription.
/ did not intend this as means of prof
it, but rather to convince you. I will
pay you for"
''Not bit of it, sir; bargain is a
bargain, and l am already repaid, sir
double paid, sir, and whenever neigh
Dor makes the complaint I did, 1 will
relate to him the hen story. Good day,
gentlemen
