IRON IN THE BLOOD.

1t is well known to the medical profession
that IRON is the Vital Principle OF Life III
emeDt Of the blood. This is derived chiefly
from the food we eat; but if the food is no'
properly digested, or if, from any cause sohat.
eUcr, the necessary quantity of iron is not
taken into the circulation, or becomes re-
duced, the whole system suffers. The bad
blood wiR irritate the heart, will clog up the
lungs. will stupefy the brain, will obstruct
the liver, and will send its disease producing
elements 10 all parts of the system, and eve-
ry one will suffer in whatever organ may be
predisposed to disease.

Mr.. EDITOR There are not few good
reasons for calling the spacious and beautiful
Hall in the City Building Cosmopolitan
Hall,D among them are some drawn from a
consideration of its architectural peculiarities.
The supports of the Orchestra are ornamented
with ayles-that's Gothic 1.-THE entabla-
ture Of the Proscenium Is supported by carya-
tides-:hat's Arcadian; the plasters on the
four sides Of the hall are Corinthiall- and In
the centre OF their capitals you see the Tyre,
which may stand for Greece, Judaea, Wales,
Scotland or ireland ! the arches of the doors
and windows are Roman. All these things
observed one evening when several long
passages in one of the NJ. L. A. Lectures,
wereso much like the nodding places in the
poems of an ancient Greek Bard, that Ihad
time to look about me- Perhaps shall dis
cover few more, if such an opportunity

boring towns. friends of temperance in the
various religious denominations will please see
to this notice.
This association is under the direction of no
special temperance organization, but embrac-
es those OF ell organizations. Its meetings
have been held monthly, with slight omissions,
for several years, but once or twice only in
this city, and then with small success; indeed
they might be properly regarded as utter fail
ures-very much, certainly, to the discredit of
our citizens. It is hoped, however, that the
proposed meeting will be of different char
acber, and such as shall greatly benefit thu
cause.
There is pressing need of general rally o
the friends of temperance, to stay the desolat
ing tide Of intemperance, specially among GU
Young men, and the combined moral influence
of our worthiest citizens should now be fnll.
