Diseases of the Nervous
System.

Almost nine-tenths of our people suffer from
nervous exhaustion, and are, therefore, liable to
its concomitant evils of mental depression, con-
fused ideas, softening of the brain, insanity, and
complete breaking down of the general health.
Thousands are suffering to-day with broken-down
nervous systems, and, unfortunately, tobacco,
alcohol, late hours, overIworb, (mental and physi-
CALI are causing diseases Of the nervous system 10
increase at fearful ratio.
The symtoms to which diseases of the nervous
system give rise may be stated as follows: A
dull heavy feeling in the head, sometimes more or
Dizziness. Noises or Ringing in the Head; Confu-
sion of Ideas; Temporary Loss of Memory; De,
lection of Spirits; Starting during Sleep; Ba d
Dreams; Hesitation in Answering Quesuohs
DnIIness of Hearing: Twitching of the Face an
Arms ETC., which, if not promptly treated, lead to

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER

Persons unacquainted with the structure and
functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the I'M
p0TtdTce of their healthy action.
Regular and sufficient action of the Kidneys is
as important, nay, even more so, than regularity
of the bowels. The Kidneys remove from the
Blood those effete matters which, if permitted to
remain, would speedily destroy life total sus-
pension of the urinary discharges Will occasion
death from thirty-six to fOrty-eight hours.
When the Urine is voided in small quantities at
the time or when there is disposition to Urinate
more frequently than natural, or when the Urine
is high 'colored or scalding with weakness in the
small of the back it should not be trifed with or
DELAYED but KOskoo should be taken at once to
remedy the difficulty, before lesion of the organs
takes place. Most of the diseases of the Bladder
originate from those of the Kidneys, the Urine
being irnperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, prove
irritating to the Bladder and Urinary passages
When we recollect that medicine never reaches the
Kidneys except through the general circulation OF
the Blood, we see how necessary it is to keep the
Fountain of Life Pure.

Powerful Vegetable Alternative
YET DISCOVERED.
DISEASES OF THE BLOOD.

1.-THE life of the flesh is in the Blood" is
Scriptural maxim that science proves to be true.
The people talk Of bad blood; the cause of many
diseases, and like many popular opinions this of
bad blood is founded in truth.
The symptoms of bad blood are usually quite
plain-bad Digestion causes imperfect nutrition,
and consequently the circulation is feeble the soft
tissues lose their tone and elasticity, and the
tongue becomes pale, broad, and frequently COW
cred with pasty, white coat. This condition soon
shows itself in TOghness Of the skin, then in ERUP-
TIVE and LUCRATIVE diseases, and when long con-
tinued results in serious LESSONS Of the Brain Lv-
er, Lungs, or urinary apparatus. Much, very
much, suffering is caused by impure blood. 1t is
estimated by some that one-hfth of the human
family are affected with scrofula in some form.
When the blood Is pure, you not so liable to
any disease Many impurities of the Blood arise
from impure diseases of large cities. Eradicate
every impurity from the fountain of life and good
spirits, fair skin and vital strength will return to
you.

johnson and Wells were walking quietly, on
Sunday last, on the street, when they were
accosted by Spaniard, who struck one of
them without saying word, and then COM
menced to fire the contents of revolver at
them They all started to run, but crowd
soon gathered around them and many shots
were fired at them. Greenwood was wound
ed in several places, but got away from the
crowd, and as he staggered off a Spaniard
ran up to him and stabbed him to death.
Foster and johnson were also severely in
jured with pistol shots and knife wounds.
Wells escaped with few slight bruises and
cuts. The Consul-General says all these
men are quiet. inoffensive workmen and have
only been in Havana few months, in the en-
ploy of New York house. He says the at
tack was unprovoked and gross outrage.
The French Consul and his wife and the wife
and daughter of the English Consul witnessed
the whole occurrence, and are to give their
testimony before the American Consul Gener-
al. The investigation is still proceeding. A
$1,000 reward is offered for the arrest of the
man who fired the first shot, but as vet no ar.
rests have been made Secretary Fish read
the despatch to the President, who ordered a
thorough examination of the facts to be
made.
