Consumption Can be Cured

An Eastern medical periodical gives an
Interesting account of the complete cure of
Mrs. Amos StauGer, of Manor, Lancaster
county Pa, OF her hereditary Consumption.
Her parents and several brothers and Sis
tiers died OF this terrible disease. Mrs. Stauf-
fer was herself reduced to a mere skeleton;
the pulse at l40; her breathing painfully dif-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. very excessive; dIar-
rhoea worse than chronic, and her condition
SO hopeless that at a conference of the
old and skillful physicians she wNs pro-
Eounced incurable. At this stage of tho dis
ease, DR.. s. B. Hartman, of Millersville, Lam
caster county, Pa.r physician of fourteen
years standing, prescribed MISHLER'S
HERB BITTERS. Tho patient soon ex-
perienced pleasing invlgorating sensation
throughout her system, and encouraged by
her friends TO continue under DR.. Hart
mans treatment, she did so, gradually I'M
proving under increased doses according 10
her strength, until she entirely recovered.
Mrs. Staufier is still living, in the full enjoy
ment of perfect health. G. B. Herr, ESQ,
President OF the Lancaster County (Pa.) Ma
tional Bank, substantiates tho particulars
OF this most wonderful case.

Tho scOunIrellsm in New York.

We clip the following from the col
umns of the Commercial Advertiser:
We can recall no similar period OF
time so fruitful in daring robbertes and
burglaries as the past ten days. Ono
might infer that all the scoundreis OF
the country had made preconcericd
raid on the metropolis. Their audaclty
and boldness are unparalleled, and the
arrest OF any one of their number has
apparently no effect in deterrinG the
remainder. The operations of the law
are ordinarily so slow here that they
entertain hopes or escape even II so
unfortunate as TO be overha ulsd. Such
being the case, let our Judges push the
culprits to the wall at once, and there
will soon be an end to this era OF crime.
In disposiuE of over one hundred cases
of felony within three weeks time, and
sentencing Rose street robber to ten
years imprisonment, Judge Bedford
has acted in n manner which deserves
emulation. Let highwaymeu and
burglars know that they will be
brought to immediate punishment II
detected, and receive severe sentences,
and they will be decidedly less bold in
their depredations. One garroter sent
to Sing Sing for life put an end to the
whole business.
