NOTHING that is not wholesome, genial and restor
ative in its natdre enters into the composition of HO
sTETTERs STOMACH BITrERs This popular prepa-
ration contains no mineral of any kind, no deadly
botanical element, fiery excitant; but il is COM
binuton of the extracts of rare basamic herbs and
plants, with the purest and mldest of all diffusiye
stmulants.
1t is well to be forearmed against disease and so
fras the human system can be protected by human
means against malades engendered by an unwhoc-
some atmosphere, impure water and other external
causes, HosTE1TER's BITTERs may be relied on as n
safeguard.
In districts infested with Fever and Ague, it has
been found intallible preventive and irresistible
as a remedy, and thousands who resort to it under
apprehension of an attack, escape the scourge and
thousands who neglect to avail themselves OF its
protective qualities in advance, are cured by very
brief course of this marvellous medicine. Fever and
Aguo patients, after being piled with quinine for
months in vain, until fairly saturated with that dan
gerous alkalOid, are not unfrequently restored TO
health within a few days by the use of HosrETTER'S
BlTTERs.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the
appetite restored by this agreeable Tonic, and hence
it works wonders in cases of Dyspepsia and i'll less
confirmed forms of Indigestion. Acting as gentle
and painless aperien, as well upon the liver it
also invariably relieves the Constipation superin-
duced by irregular action Of the digestive and secre
tive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Nervous Attacks
Lowness of Spirits and Fits of Languor, find prompt
and permanent relief from the BlTTERs. The testi-
mony this point is most conclusive and from both
sexes.
The agony of Bilious Collie is Immediately as
suaged by single dose of the stmulant and by oc-
casonaly resorng to it, the return of the complaint
may be prevented.
As a General Tonic, HosTETTER's BITTERs pro-
duce effects which must be experienced witnessed
before they can be fully appreciated. In cases OF
Constitutional Weakness Premature Decay, and
Debility and Decrepitude arising from Old Age, il
exercises the electric influence. In the GONZALES
cent stages ofal diseases itoperatcs adelightfu
invigorant When the powers ofnaturc are relaxed
it operates to reinforce and re-establish them.
Last, but not least, it is TIE 0NLY SAFE STIMu.
LIANT, beiug manufactured from sound and iunocu-
Gus materials, and entirely free from the acid ee
ments present or less in all the ordinary toncs
and stomaclrics of the day.
No family medicine has been so universally, and
it may be truly added, DESERvEDLV popular with
the Intelligent portion of the community, as Ilo
sTETTER's lITTEBs.

Bushes should mover be allowed to grow
in moving fields. It is often the case that

sporscd with bushes, growing in tho midst
of moving grounds, or by the sides of fences
where they occupy land TO no advantage.

ductions around stones and stunps.
No correct farmer will permit his fields

How TO GEr EARLY TOMATOES. Mrs T..
n, Kendall, Of Maryland, thus writes to the
Southern Field aud Frcsido; :" A good
large turnip is far better than any hot.bod
for propagating early tomatoes. Cut of
the top, ard scoop out to a shell three.Quar-
ters of an inch thick Fill the cavity with
rich mould, plant half a dozen seeds. and
plaoc the turnip in box of loan. Keep
warm, sprinkle with tepid water every
day, until there is no longer any danger
from the frost, then return the turuip to the
outdoor bed, and thin out all but one plant
Should the turnip send out roots, pinch
them OFF, and the shell will soon rot, afford,
ing a fertilizer TO tho tomato plant that will
send it ahead wonderfully. A dozen tur-
nips tomatozed will afford an abundant
supply of early tomatoes for an ordinary
family"

In aroport published in the Royal Agricul-

of from twelve TO twenty or even thirty
horses. Ina long day IL may do the work
Of forty horses, and il eats only when il

ten inches as easily "a horse plow goes

this process, the yield is heavier, and the
farmers got rid of troublesome weeds.

Too Long by HEnIC.

Tho following is from tho New York
Observer, religious paper Of extended
circulation and influence:
Last Sabbath day wo attended church
where the service previous to tho sermon
was 80 protracted that the preacher an-
nounced his text at five minutes after
twelve at noon, being one hour and thirty
five minutes from tho beginning of the SER
vicc. AS this was tho ordinary Sabbath
service, it was to our weak Hosh, however
willing the spirit might be, too long by half
Tho worship and tho sermon would both
have been moro profitable and pleasant had
the service been more brief.
On Sabbath evening we attended a rcli-
gious anniversary, and tho secretary finish
cd presenting his report forty.Iive minutes
after tho meeting began, crowding the
speakers into tho balance of tho time, late
in the evening, with wearied audience he
fore them.
On week day evening following we at
tended u sacred concert to which wo were
kindly invited, to hear celebrated oratorio.
Tho concert began at eight o'clock; we sat
until twouty minutes of ten, and tho grand
entertainment of the evening had not yet
been reached We lett, being wcaried, but
we presume it was given in the course cf
tho night.
Tho next day we attended funeral in
this city. Tho exercises were Impressive,
but tho address, which would have been
excellent for twenty or thirty minutes, was
stretched out to lifty-iivo minutes, greatly
to the WEAKNESS of the people, and far be-
yond their odifoation
There il reason in ali things. As we
ought not to allow our good to DO evil
spoken of, so we ought to be careful not TO
ovordo oar good aud maze an OWL of it,
We have great respect for the man who
said ii he never did great thing, he was
suro he never did long one.
