CERTIFICATE.
Voluntary Certificate from Don Pedro's

Voluntary Certificate from Don Pedro's
Being desrous of benefting my fellow man as
much as possible, induces me to come before the
public and certify to the following facts: In Ju-
iy last, called upon DR.. ]. G. Young, for med
cal advice. l was then laboring under dizziness
in nv head very tedious pain in my back and
hins. weak ness in my legs and arms, loss Of mem
orv. sore ewes, palpitatlon of the heart, extreme
uervousne ess aad general debility; was SO bad
that was compelled to suspend business. After
a careful examination of my case, Dr. Young
pronounced the case durable, and commenced
taking the medicine he prescribed, and the result
is that amlnow perfectly well to all appearances
although not so strong as could wish, yet l am
constantly gaining, and do us good days work
as any of the men in my locality Inc reason
for publishing the above is to counteract that
widespread rascally empiricism which is stalking
with such destruction throughout this otherwise
blessed country.
REMEMBER-That DR.. J. Young's Office. for
the treatment of Private diseases, is at 2l0 Clay
street, opposite the upper corner of the Plaza.
REMEMBER-That Dr. Young wants no patient
but those fully capable of approaching and dis
tinguishng the services of regular, thorough
bred physician from the paltry, unlearned and
tri1ing quack.
REMEMBER-That DR.. Young is the only regu-
lar-bred physician advertising to cure diseases OF
imprudence.
REMEMBER-Dr. Young's remedies and treat
ment are entirely unknown to all Others pre-
pared from life spent in the hospitals of Europe,
and the first in this country from pure chemicals
imported
REMEMBER-That DR.. j. G. Young gives every
attention to diseases peculiar to females.

THE HOUSE AND THE FARM
Node ct Ascertaining the Age of Ca@tle
by their Teeth.

Persons acquainted with the dentition of
meat stock" can form apretty accurate idea
OF age, from the period of birth up to that
of adult life; and this method of ascertain
ing the age of an animal is, probably, more
correct than that which applies to horns; for,
by means of rasp applied to the rings of
the horns, any amount OF imposition may
be practised, when it is we'll known that the
same liberties are not to be taken with the
teeth without the chances of discovery. 1t
is possible that there may be some slight
variations from the following rules, in the de-
velopment of the teeth, yet such variations
will not embrace period of over month
or six weeks, which at maturity does not
amount to much, and may be considered
as purely accidental-out of the ordinary
course of nature. The front teeth or tenn
porary incisors are found in the lower jaw;
there are eight of them, all prominent at the
age of four weeks. The calf is usually born
with temporary grinders and molars; the
fourth appears six months after birth the
fifth appears at the age of fifteen months;
the sixth is to be seen at the age of two and
half years. now, the animal has full
mouth" of temporary teeth, numbering thir-
ty-tWo. AZ InlS peTlou TetIlai hao'o Cha"Se
in teeth is about to occur; the temporary
ones having answered the purpose for which
they were intended, are to be removed in
the following order, SO as to give place to
others which shall correspond to the increase
in the size of the jaw bones and prove du-
rable as other bones Of the body. AT the
age of two years the central or middle in
cisors Qower jaw are shed and replaced by
two permanent ones. At the age Of three,
the ncisors known as the inner middle, un-
dergo the same process. At the age of four,
the outer middle are shed, and replaced by
permanent teeth. At the age of five, the
corner incsors are also transformed in the
same manner, and the animal has full set
(eight) of permanent front teeth. The first
and permant moIars known as grinders, ap-
pear in the upper and lower jaws on each
side, at the age of two years; and at intervals
of one year, SO that at the age of six years
the animal has full mouth of permanent
grinders. An'erican Stock Journal.

SMUT IN WHEAr-AN ExpERIMENT.-An
experiment is related in the Rural Neac
Yorker, where three plots of ground exactly
alike we're sown with wheat to test the cause
of smut. The first was sown with smut
wheat, and, of course, did not grow. The
second was sown with bruised wheat, broken
in ,hreshing, which some think the cause Of
smut A few kernels grew but produced no
smut The third plot was sown With good
wheat and rolled in smut until the kernels
were entirely black with it. The product
was one half smut wheat.
