Lovers of the bivalves, especially
those who prefer them in their own
liquor, may be interested in knowing
what that fluid contains. That useful
little instrument, the microscope. makes
some very unpleasant discoveries of
which with the naked eye alone we
should remain happily ignorant. A
scientiacjournal says that if, on opening
an oyster, the liquor is retained in the
lower or deeper shell, and viewed
through the microscope, it WILDE found
to contain multitudes of small oysters
covered with shells, swimming nimbly
about-one hundred and twenty of
which extend but one inch. Besides
these young oysters, the liquor contains
variety or animaiculp, and myriads
OF three distinct species of worms

An Elephant Frozen TO Death.

The elephant which for the past few
weeks has been keeping his trunk at
the Varieties theatre, was taken across
the river Monday night, and placed in
a car on the st. Louis, Vandalia and
Terre Haute railroads preparatory to
his shipment. During the night,
while suffering from the intense cold
ola climate so much farther north than
that nature designed him for, and all
unknown to his keeper, he broke out of
his prison and wandered all over the
central portion of the island, breaking
every window out of which shone
light that he could reach, and alarm
ing the Inhabitants generally. There
were some very ludicrous scenes, but
strange to say, no one discovered the
cause of the rumpus. Yesterday morn
ing the elephant was found dead near
the st. Louis and Southern railroad
depot, where the poor brute, at last
overcome by the cold, had lain down
and expired.-,T. Louis Times.

Two Hundred Years,

h T. HELMBOLD claims a superior
mode of extracting its virtues. The ex-
periments were made while engaged in the
DRUG business in the City of Philadelphia,
10 years ago, prompted by the alarming
increase Of diseases of the Bladder, Kid
neys, Gravel, and Urinary Organs existing
in both sexes. These diseases we're at
tracing as much attention as diseases Of
the Liver or any other organ of the body.
Upon the sound and healthy conditions
of these organs the nervous system and
liver were involved and the happiness of
the entire human family depended.
The Buchu acting ~favorably upon both
Liver and Kidneys, to prepare II SO that it
would retain its strength and active prin-
cipIe was his aim. 1t must not be made,
as housekeepers make tea, by boiling. 1t
is a delicate Leaf, and its active principle
would be destroyed by such a process. 1t
must be prepared in vACUo, and of the
long leaf, fresh and carefully selected.

after consulting many eminent physicians,
and trying nearly all the best advertised

from aggravated kidney and bladder dis
eases, from which 1 have suffered excess

suggested to me Helmbold's Buchu; which
1 commenced using with little faith, and
no apparent beneficial results for about a

however, 1 thought 1 commenced to expe-

BUaxsrD1, Conn, Dec. 18th, 1869.
DE-. HELMBoLD-DEAR SR:-It is with
much pleasure that I write you upon facts
respecting myself. I do not know hardly
how to express myself. I have been for
the last ten or twelve years the greatest
sufferer man could be and live; but more
sometimes than others. The complaint
was the "Kidneys" and Bladder" 1
have been sometimes from twelve to four
teen hours, and wanted to make water
every minute, but could not. Have con-
suited doctors, both in Massachusetts, and
this State, and taken pills, Imay say, by
the quart, also Iquored medicines; but
found no relief from any, and got worse
the last six months. I was so that 1 could
scarcely get about. IeOuld not rest night
or day. 1t would 1901 have been 'aIl up"
with me if 1 had not seen your advertise
ment in the Berkshire Courier, headed
Kidneys" I read it through, and thought
I would try it. I purchased a bottle; but
mind you, Lad not much faith in it. Why
should I, when 1 had been trying SO many
things that cost me SO much? Well, I began
taking it, and before 1 had taken the first
bottle I felt bad: but 1 finished it, and got
another. By the time 1 took half of the
second I still got worse apparently
When 1 walked, it seemed as if my right
kidney was falling from its place, and 1
felt really bad. felt 50 before I had I'm
ished the second that 1 had made up my
mind it was of no use trying any more;
and all this time the "Buchu" was doing
its work, but 1 did not know it. So 1 gave
it up, and went to Hartford on Saturday,
to one of the best doctors in the city. He
said it was the neck of the Bladder, and 1
should have to undergo an operation. He
gave me medicine, and I went home quite
down-hearted. On Sunday 1 was unable
to 90 to church. I had not taken any of
his medicine; but on my return continued
using the "Buchu," and in the afternoon 1
had a desire to make water, but could not.
About n hour after this I tried again,

Ipropose to give evidence that this rem
edy is not a Patent Medicine. The objec-
ton which generally lies against all disCov-
cries and inventions in medicine is 'tPUb-
Rcav." If somebody should discover q
remedy to prolong life, or an infallible cure
for cholera or consumption, what amonster
would he be to withhold his knowledge.

vsrss IN Scripture to quote chat men may
not heal others Of their feEOS-men Of any dis
ease"

DEAR SrR:-We introduced your "Fluid
Extract Buchu" in this country about
eight months ago, and We are happyto state
that it is meeting with universal favor.
We wish to inform you of one instance
(among many where your "Buehu" has
worked wonders. A man in our county,
named j. B. Estell, had been suffering
about five years with gravel. About six
weeks ago he bought of US one bottle of
your "Buchu," and before he was through
with one bottle he passed a gravel that
weighs eight grains, which we now have on
exhibition In our drug store. He says he
will never be without the "Buchu in his
hOase again. Your preparations are gain
ing favor every day.
Very respectfully yours, etc.,
