Tile Fail and Its Dangers,

Animal as well as vegetable life is powerfully
affected by the great atmospheric change that
takes place in the Fall But for the flowers, the
foliage and the herbs of the field there is help.
Their time has come and die they must 1t is
otherwise with man. For him the means of re-
inauguration have been provided by skill and
science. To recruit his exhausted energies and
fortify himself against the disorders generated by
the sudden depression of temperature and the
unwholesome cxhalations of Autumn, let him tone
his nervous system, invigorate his digestion and
give edge to his appetite with HOSTETTER 5
STOMACH BTTrERS. He may then face the
morbid influences of the season fearlessy. The
chilling night dews and heavy morning mists will
have no power TO make him shyer and burn, TO
affect his liver, TO disorder his stomach or his
bowels, TO rack his joints with rheumatism, or to
render any latent element of disease in his system
active and dangerous. To the sufferer from gen
eral debility, whether constitutional arising
from other causcs-this potent vegetable specific
is earnestly recommended. And let it be remem
bered that physical ceakness opens tie door 10 al
Dulddies. NigOr is the chief defence of the human
structure against all causes of disease, and Hos
LETTERS BITTERs may be truly pronounced the
safest and surest of all invgorants. 1t is the mos
genial of all vegetable tones, and is admirably
adapted to the wants and weaknesses of the more
delicate SEX well as TO the ailments of men,

The Canada Thistle.

WE often allude to this, the vilest pest
the farmer has to contend against when it
is allowed to get foothOld. We say al
lowed; because it cannot get foothold
where farm is free of it except it has
permission to do so from the occupier OF
the land. 1t usually visits him in pur-
chased seeds, or it may steal over his lines
from the lands of a careless neighbor; but
in either event it is easy to dispatch it if
taken in time, and the farmer who neglects
to take it in time and destroy root and
branch, is disqualified to be the tlller of
the soil, and besides commits an offence
against the law, and the community which
the law is intended to protect.
Where only few thistles make their
appearance, rs they commonly do in
patches, they should be totally removed,
not piece of root the size of finger-nail
should be left or it will produce a shoot.
Where they suddenly appear in large
numbers they should be cut off close to
the ground, and just before rain the hol-
lows in the stocks should be filled with
common salt One dose this way is
enough. But should they exist in still
larger numbers, cutting down with a
scythe as fast as they appear, and frequent
cultivation of the ground will eyterminatc
