How EEostettcr's Bitters Cure Dyspepsia
THE WHOLE STORY IN \ NUTSHELL.

The Office OF the stomach is to convert the food Into
crcamlike semi-ud, called CHYME. This iS effected
partly by the action of solvent, called the gastric
juice which eXUdrs from the stomach, and partly by Il
mechanical movement of that organ. which chtTns. as
it were the IgsalyinG ancnt The CgYME passes from
the stomach into the IlTndrnum, entrance to the
bowels, where ii is sub cctc,i the action Of the bile.
and the nutritious portion Of ii converted into fluid
called Chlge. which eventually becomes blood.
Now, it is evident that if the great solvent the gastric
juice is not produced in sufficient quantity, if the
mechanical action If the stomach is not sufficiently
brisk. the first process Of digestion will lie hut mprr
fctly performed 1t is also clear that if the liver which
plays such an Important part in changing the nuurisl
ing portion Of the cyme into the material of the blood
cungcscd OF in any unnatural condition. the second
process will not be thoroughly accomplished. The
result of the co failures is dyspepsia, complicated with
biliUusneSs
The mode in which IOSTETTER-S BITTERS operate
in such is this they nvigoratc the cellular
lrane of the stomach which evolves the gastric juice
thereby insuring ample suficiency of the fluid
completely dissolve the food. They also upon the
nerves Of the stomach causing acceleraton of the
mechanical movement necessary to reduce the food
homogeneous mass. They also act specifically upon the
liver, strengthening IT, and enabling il to produce
ample and regular supply of bile for tic pur of
verts the nutritious PARTICLES of the ChUe into Che
and promote the passage through the bowels OF the
leFs debris.
In this way, II0STETTERS BITTERS cure dyspepsia
and liver complaint. The explanation is plain. simple
philosophical, and true. Nov. 1SG9-lm

The Public SchooL-This institution, un-
der the management of Misses Howard and
Marshbank, is in a very fourishing condi-
tion. The school has never before num-
bered SO many pupils,-the attendance the
last quarter being as high as 103,-and we
believe the children never made better pro-
gress than since under the management of
these ladies. The quarter ended on Mon
day last, and the afternoon of that day was
an occasion of much interest to teach
ance. The exercises were varied, and con-
sisted partly of an examination-speaking,
reading and singing, by the children. That
part of the programme which partook of
the nature Of an exhibition, was quite in
teresting. The reading of "Jeptha' s
Daughter" by Miss Sallie Lofand the
death of the Flowers" by Miss Laura
Ford, was excellent, and elected much
praise. The singing, too, in which the
whole school engaged, was very fine, and
was led by Miss Susie Slaughter, who has
a sweet and musical voice, and evinces much
talent for vocal music. We know it is
hardly right to discriminate where all did
SO we'll, but time and space will not allow
a more extended notice, and We feel that
the above are deserving of special mention.
The room was tastefully decorated with
evergreen and flowers, and possessed other
attractions alike pleasing. The attendance
of patrons was ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS in short,
everything passed off in the most pleasant
and profitable manner. Vtre la teachers of
the Cecilton Public School!
The Parsonage-Th new Methodist Epis-
copal Parsonage is nearly completed, and
will be ready for occupancy by Christmas.
1t is nice two-story and a half frame L
house-large, neat and convenient. There
is one noticeable defect, however, and that
is the panes of glass in the sash of the
front building are too small. Instead OF
"S-by-10's there should be but four lights
in each sash. This slight matter seriously
detracts from the beauty Of this otherwise
neat and attractive edifico.
Singing Sehool.-Prof. Quinby is now en-
gagged in teaching the scholars of the Pub
lie School vocal music. He gives instruc-
tion every Friday afternoon. The compen-
sation charged by the Prof. was made up
by the school, so that all the children par
ticipate in this delightful exercise.
Re'tgious.-A protracted meeting, of sew
eral weeks duration, in the NJ. E. Church,
closed on Sunday last. The meeting, in a
religious sense, was not very successful,
there being but few converts.

THE PRESBYTERIAN REU NIoN.-The re-
union of the Old and New School branches
of the Presbyterian Churches was consum-
mated at Pittsburg last week The formal
consolidation was made in an impressive
and affecting manner. The delegates of
the two Assemblies, who had been divided
since 1887, leaving the churches in which
they had respectively assembled, met in the
street, joined ranks and together proceeded
to the building in which the commemora-
tive services were held. 1t was resolved to
mark the event by the raising of five mil
lions of dollars. The combined Church
has now an aggregate of fifty-one Synods,
two hundred and fifty-six Presbyteries,
over four Thousand ministers, and nearly
half million of members. 1t is believed
that the present reunion is but preliminary
to the combination of all the other divisions
of Presbyterianism into one organization.
A General Assembly of the united Church
will be held in May next.
