ITCH OINTMENT.

A SAFE, convenient and eflicacous rem
IA edy for that most disagrceablc and tor
menting disordcr-the ITClI-has been
always greatly needed bat no one, it is
presumed, has before been discovered which
will certainly effect a cure without having
ingredients in it both disagreeabe and dan
gerous. Those that have attempted its cure
with birthstone, have generally applied it
with a mixture Of hogs fat, or lard, worn for
several days, OF dried in by the fire, either Of
which exposes the patient to the most mmi-
ncnt danger of taking cold, by opening the
| pores of the body, and at the same timo
| imprcgnating the blood with a poisonous
quality, and weakening and facilitating the
whole constitution; others have used oin:-
ments which have either proved dangerous
to health, or insufficient to effect a cure.
But this will as certainly cure the ITCH
as it is applied it is easy and safe for any
| age, habit or constitution, and attended with
no disagrceable consequences of any kind,
either at the time Of using it, or at any time
after, as can be proved by thousands of peo-
pie Of different ages, constitutions and states
of health, who have used this ointment, and
| have been cured by it.
No family ought to be without this valua-
bic medicine for, on the first appearance Of
this disorder, on the wrists and bctwixt the
| fingers. &c, slight application of this Oint-
ment will cure it, and prevent its progress,
and likewise its being taken by others. 1t
| may also be used as a preventive, by touch
| ing the hands or the inside Of the gloves once
| in while with little oft, when there is n
| suspicion that the disorder is prevalent, and
| there is danger Of taking it. For which rea-
| son no people abroad on business, no student,
| traveller, soldier or sailor, should be without
this Ointment, which is neatly put up in tin
| boxes, convenient to carry, agreeable in its
smell, and will last good for u long time By
this precaution, neighborhoods societies AMI
schools, might be freed from this tormentng
disorder. Should the patient have any
other eruption or breaking out, which he
mistakes for the IrCu an application of this
Ointment will do no harm, but often cures
the common breaking out, which arises from
Il sharp, hot humor in the blood, and leaves
smooth polish on the skin.
| There have been many Ointmcnts offered
to the public, for the cure Of the ITCu, but
this valuable medicine bears no analogy to

A New STYLE OF REIIGIoN.-Somc one,
whose head is usually ''cve, has written
out his ideas Of religion as follows. 1t will
do to read and think about:
We want religion that goes into the fam

ful when the dinner is late: keeps the wife
from being spitclul when the husband tracks
the newly washed lloor with his muddy boots.
and makes the husband mindful Of the Scrit

like the eastern fig tree, bearing in its bosom
at once the beauty Of the tender blossom
and the glory of the ripcncd fruit. We want
q religion that not only bears on the sinful
ness of sin, but on the raScality of lying and
stealing; religion that banishcs all small
measures from the counters, small baskets

religion that is to advance the world will not
put all the big strawberries and peaches on

will not offer more baskets of foreign wines
than the vineyards ever produced bottles. -
The religion that is to sanctty the world
pays its debts. 1t does not consider forty
cents returned for one hundred given, ac-
cording to Gospel, though it is according to

in trade, and who continues to live in lux

flour and a teaspoonfull of salt. Let 1t rise
then knead WE'LL unsparngly for the second
time. 1t costs just one halfas much as bread
from the finest family flour, is lighter on the
stomach, and imparts more health, vigor
and strength to the body, brain and BONE
Three pounds of such bread (at five cents a
pound for the meal) affords as much nutri-
ment as nine pounds of good roast beef
(cost at twenty five cents, So according
to standard physiological facts.

Curious illustration of Red Tape.

About fifteen years ago, it happened in a
certain country of Europe, that the inspec-
tor-gcneral of garrisons, while visiting a
provincial town, observed a sentinel station
ed little distance outside the walls, keep.
ing guard over some ruined buildings in the
suburbs. The general inquired of the SEN
tmcl. with some curiosity. why he WAS posted
there. The sentinel referred him to his SER
geant. The sergeant had nothing to say but
, that such We're the orders his lieutenant
The lieutenant justified himself under the
authority Of the captain commandment of the
garrison. Upon being applied to for his
reasons for the standing order in question,
the commandment informed the inspcctor-gen.
era. with much seriousness. that his predc.
ccsSors in Office had handed down to him the
custom as one Of the military duties of the
place. a search was immediately instituted
in the archives of the municipality the re-
suit of which was to obtain Satisfactory proof,
that, for the last seventy years, a sentinel
had always stood over the ruined buildings
in the same manner. With awakened inter
est and curiosity. the general returned to the
capital lie there set ON foot II more cIab-
crate investigation among the State dOcu.
mentS Of the Minister of War. After long
delay it was at last discovered that the ruin.
ed building of the taubourg had been. in
1890 storchousc for mattresses belonging
to the garrison, and that in the course of
that summer it became desirable to paint the
door. While the paint was wet, n guard was
placed outside to warn those who went in
and ont; but, before the paint was dry, it
came to pass that the officer on dutv was
dispatched ON a mission Of Importance and
left the town without remembering to remove
the sentinel. For seventy years guard of
honor has constantly remained over the
door, sacred and inyiolable tradition, but
one which represented at bottom no higher
idea than the idea Of wet paint

ORIGIN OF Doors AND SHoEs.-Boots are
said to have been invented by the Carrans.
They were at first made Of leather-after
wards of brass and iron, and were proof
against both cut and thrust. 1t was from
this that Homer called the Greeks brazen
footed. Formerly in France, great foot
was much esteemed, and the length Of the
shoe, in the fourteenth century was mark
of distinction. The shoes of Prince were
two feet and a half long; those of n Baron
two feet, and those Of knight eighteen in,
ches long.

THIS article has for many years enjoyed

Fertilizers that it has been our constant aim
to render our RAW BONE FERTILIZER
more and more worthy Of the full confidence
OF Farmers, by the use Of every facility at
command and the aid of scientific skill, in
essentially improving its qualities, and we
have never allowed this purpose to be inter

in the cost Of all matters pertaining to our

E The Copperhead papers all

cent exposures of the o. A K, and
S. d. But in every article the read
er can discover an under current OF
vexation and chagrin. Not one of
them dares to deny. or attempts to
disprove the facts They artfully

sneering over the disclosures, as be-

But all this, will not avail cny.
thing, by way of distracting public
attention. The people can understand
them, as they are, full, complete, end
unimpeachable. A number of the
conspirators are already looking
through the gratings of a prison,
Numbers more are on their way to
the same lodgings. All these facts
may he carefully kept out of view,
by the copperhead papers, yet the
masses of the people are fully aware
of them. The copperhead leaders
may laugh and sneer over the panic
caused by this exposure, and declare
that no harm to the Republic was de-
signed, but it is all of a piece with
the pickpocket who when discovered
with your purse in his hand. exclaims
loudly against any evil intent, "that
it was purely a mistake, or only a
