AGE AND DEBILITY.

As old age comes creeping on, it brings with il
many attendant afirmities. Loss of appetite and
weakness impair the health, and want of activity
makes the mind discontinued and unhappy. In
cases where old age adds its influence it is almost
impossible to add visor and health, and although
many remedies have been tried, all have failed, un
til BGRHAVE'S HOLLAND BITTERS were
known and used In every case where they have
been employed, they have invariably given strength
and restored the appetite. They have become g
agent for this alone. and are used by many people
who are suffering from loss of appetite and gene
raj debility. In cases of long standing chronic
diseases, they act as charm, invigorating the sys
tenn. thus giving nature another opportunity to re
pair physical injuries. See advertisement in anoth

The public are getting n wrong view of

pecially from the announcement that the hos

thirty miles south of Birds claim, Honey

tans are full of scouting parties. | would
not advise small prospecting parties to go
far out. Long Valley and lower Susan river
and Honey Lake farms are depopuated. No
crops are being put in. Charley West
bought two farm houses, corrals, and one
thousand acres of land for a soug-l think

under discipline and we'll armed-at least
forty of us. The Indians will not gather
again in large numbers, | guess, yankee,

child's mother, Marie Antoinette The trou-
bles of the French revolution rendered this
speedy removal of the Dauphin of France
necessary for its safety. and previous to the
young Dauphin's sudden removal, a minute
medical inspection of the child was taken by
the medical authorities and court attendants
of Marie Antoinette, the certificates of whom
are now carefully preserved in the French
archives. The whole of these marks were
found to be on the body of the deceased, as
certified to by three medical men, The maid

this country, afterwards married O gentle
man OF the name of Meves, and the child was

State reason, the Dauphin was kept in ig-

most distinguished noblemen in France paid
the deceased every homage, it was but upon
the death OF the supposed mother he first
learned the secret that Louis Philippe, the
dethroned, and others, had been usurpers

themselves to the art in question.
