UPsKr.-one evening not very long ago, q
couple OF Germans started down the hill on
Main street, at the corner Of Second, with q
wagon laden with sundry baskets OF eggs
and crates Of chickens; the proprietors there
of being perched aloft on the produce afore-
said. Pretty soon the breeding broke,
whom, instead Of leaping from their perilous
seat, the drivers commenced whipping their
horse to keep him out Of the way of the wag-
on but the latter was TOO swift, and rush
ing down upon the horses heels, started him
into a run. Near Mr.. CAREERS store the
horse turned sharply to the left, and spilled
one mynherr On one sid I'm tbs midst Of q
fluid MAS OF eggs; and the other German
on the other side under a terrified and
amazed congregation Of squalling chickens,
turned over on their backs, and futtering and
scratching vigorously. The horse compile
ted bis exploits, after advancing few steps
further by depositing himself on his side on
the pavement, and the wagon botsom-side
mp. No damage done, except the loss of the
eggs, and the breaking of one of the springs
OF the wagon.

70 Fever and Ague la a terrible disease. OF
call the ills tina fesh 10 heir to- ii ia the faintest
in its first manifestations, the most unrelenting in
its progress and the most defiant of medical skill.
Fever and Ague is more destructive OF human life
than consumption, because 1t is more easily in
duced, and therefore more prevalent. 1t marks its
victims for the grave, like executioner's bond.
Day by day, the sufferer grows wea ker and weaker,
aud each hour does he fear strong consciousness
of approaching the tomb. We have said that the
disease is one Of those which have nearly always
dehed medical science few once In while

Fever and Ague, is, beyond all controversy, the

often been by the OF this reliable
edy. The "Bitters" have been used by the propri-
etor In extensive practice, In the treatment Of
Fever and Ague, for number Of years, and its
wonderful curative powers are well known both to
the press and the public. These who desire y
thorough renovation OF their entire system, should
not fail to use the "Bitters."
