ancestry in their consiguratiou.
Each heifer calf should be examined care
fully as to points Of excellence for tie par

first sustenance directly from its mother, and

RECEPTIONS, such as constitutional Bilious
Temperaments, some victims of dyspepsia or

is afflicted more or less with the warm weather

the use of a gentle stimulus or tonic. such as

SPECIAL NOTICES

This medicine invented by Dr.J. H. cHgSKc
Philadelphia, is intended to dissolve the foo
and make it into chyme, the first process of ind
deston. BY cleansing the stomach with Schenck'
ganirake Pills, the Tonic soon restores the appe-
lite, and food that could not be eaten before using
it will be easily digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Scnenck' S
Plmonic. yrup unless the stomach and liver is
made healthy and the appetite restored, hence the
Tonic and Pills are required in nearly every case
of consumption. A half dozen bottles of the SEA
WEED TONIC and three four boxes Of the
MANDRK PILL will cure an D.. lntry.. case
on dyspepsia.

York, Boston, and and at his principal Office in
Philadelphia every week See daily papers of
