From a WeaIthy Farmer Of Seneca County, Ohio.
My horse was worked and driven so hard. that he
seemed completely worn out and used up. If he
walked a few yards, he would tremble all over. He
seemed entirely worthless and about to die. I gave
him various medicines, but they were of no benefit.
l finally gave him l. l.. ST. JOHNS CONDITION
POWDERS. He rapidly improved until he became
perfectly well. then sold him for one hundred dol

Bloody MIX, etc.-Mr. James Conkete, Omar.0hio,
says: L had a horse badly afflicted with distemper,
and gave him st. Johns Condition Powders. They
operated like a charm, cffecting a cure in a fewdays.
They are siyen to cows in our neighborhood with
excellent effect, purifying their blood and improving
their condition., so as greatly to increase their guam
tity of milk. One COW had the garget, which caused
her to give bloodymilk. A cure was soon effected
with these Powders.

A BENEFICENT STATUrE.-The last
Legislature of this State passed an act (see Laws
OF 1889, page 1885,, empowering any number of citi-
zens, not less than ten more than one hundred,
to organize themselves into body corporate for
the purpose OF experimenting horse thieves and
other felons," and investing each member of such
body when engaged in making an arrest. with the
powers of constable.
The mode of organization is simple. and can be
sttended with but slight expense; the constitution
and bylaws of the corporation, and the terms of
membership, far as contributions and action are
concerned, are fixed by the members themselves
by majority votes
As the southern counties of this State and the
northern OF Indiana, are again the field of opera

the ordinary agencies of the law have hitherto
failed to effectualy reach we suggest to our citi

OPINION OF THE ENGLISH PRESS.
1--WE have read Mr.. Ii. :. Browns Lectures
with much satisfaction. Mr.. Brown knows how
to speak to the people, lie has almost every
qualification for it, if we may judge from his
printed addresses. There is maudlin sentiment
talty about him; but all is healthful as the breeze
on the hill. There is clap-trap; he is both too
honest and too earnest for that. There is neither
a Pharisaic scorn of vice, nor any effeminate
apoligizing for it. bat wise Christian mans
righteous hatred of it, who knows how to look on
those who are sin-degraded as his brethren. He
speaks to the people almost as one of themselves,
only from higher level and, though he uses their
daily phrases, yet he does not thereby pander to
vulgarity. He has happy acquaintance with our
homely common sense proverbs, and employs them
telngly. There is no affectation of extraordinary
concern for the poor their souls > but there
is that real manly which afford to dis
pense with profession, and to express itself chiefly
in calm but brave and sensibly earnest endeavours.
The proverb, Much cry and little WOOL you may
reverse in his case. His true desire to benefit the
people is partly shown by the pains with which he
collects and prepares the statistics of vice. poverty
disease, &c. order that his well marshaIled facts
may preach to the understanding. The commences
of his earnestness is evidenced by the cheerfulness
with which it tolls along the highway of common
sense He has no recourse to reckless, undiscrim-
mating charges, and is too strong for exaggeratIon
Truth is enough for him; would that this were no
distinction! While he faithfully touches the worst
vices. yet YOU never feel that the censor himself
must have coarse taste OF prurlent imagination
These Sunday afternoon lectures are not sermons,
nor intended to be. In them he grapples with
acknowledged evils; but still, while opening the
eyes of the people to the real nature of much of
what their daily life too often is and showing what
it might be, he is never ashamed of the Gospel of
Christ, nor chargeabe with even seeming to let
them go away with the impression that anything
else, and not the kingdom of heaven, is the first
thing to be sought. In Mr.. Brown We have man
who, we should judge, can afford to go where any
classes of Gods creatures domesticated, for he
is strong and his strength is holy."-1onthky
