Compound Extract Of Sarsaparilla

the most effectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is COM
bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expursation of this foul
disorder from the blood and the rescue Of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for tho cure Of
not only scrofula, but also those othG aRec-
tons which arise from it, such as ERUpTIvE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHoNY's FInE,
RosI, or BnYsIPgLAs, PIMPLEs, PUsTULBs,

RnEUMATIsM, SYPHrLIrIo and MgRcURIAL DIS
EASES, DnoPsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIA-
TED OR IMruRR BLooD. The popular belief
in /" imp1ity Of the blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration Of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue Of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fuid
without which sound health ia impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

DISEASE IN LAMBS.

We quote below from lIr Spooner on
disease in lambs ;--"Auy medicine given
10 destroy worms in the air paasagos acts
by being absorbed into the ,yaqm. In tie
case of worms in the wjndpipe two oGoats
should be sought for--oue to destroy the
enemy, and the other to strengthen and
support the system which being ubiectcd

duced so as to almost produce suffocation
albeit the creatures die sometimes of the
remedy, Ia calves a cure has been affec.
ted by administering lime water, and
probably it would be equally effectual for
lambs. The dose for a lamb would be
about two ounces daily and about two
drachms Of salt should be given at anothe,
period of the day. This treatment should
be followed for some days. Better still is
the plan Of administering oil ofturpentine
which being taken into the stomach is soor
absorbed throughout the system. The
dose for lamb is two drachms, which
should be given with an ounce of linseed
oil, scrupe of ginger, and five drops o.
oil Of carraways, mixed with two or three
tablespoonfuls of linseed Cruel. This dose
may be repeated if required, several times
with intervals of some days. The lambs
should be allowed half a pound Of jinseoi
cake per diem, and should be otherwise
carefully tended and literally fed. BY
such course of treatment many valuable
animal may be saved"

WHEN TO PLANT SORGHUM.

The Bucyrus (Ohio) Forum contains an
article from The Rev. a. Myers of that
place, in which he states that the expert
ence of forty persons Of his acquaintance
demonstrates that early planting is not
practicable. "Of all the experiment from
the last of April until the 10th of May not
one matured; /; those from the 10 Of May
until goth were ripe, or nearly so and
all, without exceptions, from the goth Of
May until the lst of June, were perfectly
matured, demonstrating, conclusively, that
the latter part of May is the best time to
plant" 1t is absolutely essential to sue
cess in making sugar, he says, that the
sorghum should be fully matured, and as
early planting is not safe, he thinks we
must have some preparation to bring the
seed up speedily. What that is, he pro-
fesses to have discovered, and will announce
in time for planting We hope he will
do so.-Farmer & Gardener.

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

Is a constitutional disease, corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being IN the circulation, il
pcrvades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it, No organ Is free
from its attacks, nor Is thore one which 1t may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint Is varo,iely
caused by mercurisl disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, hlth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above ALL by the venercal infection. What
ever be its origin, it Is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
IL seems to be the rod Of Him who says, "I
will visit the iniquities Of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt or ulceroas matter, which, In
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, Is termed
tubcrcles in the glands, swellings and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which gonders in the blood, dcpresses
the energies Of life so that scrofulous constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous conn
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in tho
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination and many
destructive diseases Of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, Of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous |;
their persons arc invaded by this lurking in
fcction, and their health is undermined by It
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in
