lapse into his former condition, on returning to
his duties, of the writer OF "An Interesting Let

attracted so much attention to the Water Cure,
as improved upon and pracised by DR.. Bourne
This additional testimony must prove satisfactory
to all reasonable minds. 1t should be remembeed
that DR.. Bourne uses no medicines whataver and
that his patients almost universally are those who
have failed TO receive relief from the medical
practitioners; yet they are cured with great ra-
pidity. and in pleasant and agreeable manner.

MEDICAL ADVICE.-Dr. VIM. X. DOherty's
Medical and Surgical Institute is becoming sine
qua non to the we flare of our State and health
Of o.r citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputa-
tion although it may excite surprise, is but the
signal Of skill, and follows as the natural effect
of such cause. We are personally acquainted
with gentlemen who had suffered for years under
chronic disease, and who had taken advantage of
every available means that promised relief but
without success, until they called upon Dr.. Do
herty, who in an incredibly short space of time,
has given them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to
announce this fact, because the Doctor is gen.
tleman who seeks. not by defamation of others.
to establish his reputation, or to rear the super
structure OF his own upon the ruin of another's
fame. The Doctor conducts his Institute in snch
a manner that must be gratifying to all his pa
tients. He examines, advises and recommends
without charge, and the patient after hearing
his terms for treatment, can accept or reject at
pleasure. In no case does the Doctor make
charge unless he effects a cure. This, he is able
to do, because he feels the confidence which long
experience has given, and no doubt the consola-
ton which appertains to that confidence. Per-
sons afflicted with either acute or chronic disease
would do we'll to consult the Doctor; at all events
st can do no harm as for consultation be asks no
fee; nor does he insist obedience to his advice
unless the patient places himself under his care.

der his treatment, and in one week was so much
improved that thought could risk returning
home and to my duty as Engineer on the Central
Railroad. The Doctor objected but thought l
knew better, and returned to duty in about two
weeks my cough returned, and | kept getting
worse, and contrary to DR.. Bourne's Injunction

Boxes Instead OF Pots.

! weu known scotsman said to us some.
time ago, ''If you will tell your readers
never to SOW seeds in pots, you will do
them great favor, and save us many
complaints from customers who fail with
their seeds, and charget the failure to the
bad quality Of the seeds, rather than to
their own bad managcment."1 iWe quite
agree with our fricni, that it requires
more care than most people can give to
successfully start seeds in common pots in
ordinary rooms. Those who have no other
''glass" than the kitchen or sitting room
window, can get quite start, with plants
for the vegetable Or flower garden, if they
make proper, use Of the, facilities their
windows afford. A common foyer pot.
nnaess it be Of a large size, dries out very
rapidly in the warm air of the dwelling.
Its sides expose great surface, aud are
constantly absorbing moisture fron" the
ball of earth, to be quickly !. evap,:atod,
nad the young plants are alternately soak
edor parched every day. Established AMI
hardy plants can endure these changes. !.
but with delicate seedlings the, case is .dif-
fereht; their root hairs, SO fine that they
can only be seen by'ra microscope, do a
good part of the work Of absorbing; these
are SO delicate that they wither with any
unusual dryness. and the young plant re-
ceives check if is does not die outright.
This difficulty may be overcome BY setting
ths pots in u box and surrounding them by
naoss, sawlust, or other Similar material.
but this causes great waste of room, and
it is much better to use tho box at once
without the Intervention of pots, unless in
the case of cueumbers, squashes, and other
large plants, which it is desirable to turn
out without disturbing the roots We
have used boxes foot square and about
4 inches deep, with satisfaction, though
the size may be modified to; suit the. win
dow. 1t is necessary that the boards
be thick, an inch it none too thick, and
well nailed to prevent warplng- With
plants started in this way as with those in
hot beds, success depends npon a iudiciots
management of light air and. water An
abundance Of light, is needed, but care
must be taken to shield tho tender plants
from burning sun. In most dwellings,
the windows are not very tight, and this
is all the bcttes for the plants, as theygct
in this way share of ventilstionH n
all suitable weather the windows should be
opened above, taking care to avoid sudden
changes of temperature. Many, never
having tried hot-bed, think they can not
afford the time and expense. and to such
wo commend the use of these window
boxes.
