The ResnonsibIlIties Of the Liver.

The liver has very important part to perform In
the animal economy, Its function is two-fold. The
fluid which 1t secretes tempers tho blood and reg
ulates the bowels and upon the quantity and quail
ty of the secretion depends, in great degree, the
adaptation of the blood to the requirements of the
system and the due removal of the refuse matter
which remains In the intestines after the work O.
digestion has been accomplished.
One OF the principal uses OF Hostettefs's stom-
ach Bitters is to tone and control this somewhat

Facts Concerning Hair.
Etrom tfe lafayette lind.l Daily Court

EFrom the Lafayette (ind) Daily courier.l
In all ages and countries the hair of woman
has been regarded as Her e6itf ornament.
The various methods adopted for its preseryh-
tiUh end the promotion Of its growth, have
wholly or partially f-iled., But Chevalier's
Life for the IIaLr has been founa to he reli
able beautifer and invigorator of the hair.
Those no have tried it-and their name Is
leglon--pear testimony to its efficacy in beau
tifyins and imparting a healthy growth to
the hair such ds no other preparation Is ca
babla Of doing.
1t has been anslszed ana found to contain
nothing but vegetable matter; indeed, some
of which we use daily on our tables, ana by
the medical faculty, as well as by every one
who ever used it, is pronounced the finest
preparation ever used on the toilette for
beautlfylng the hair'
When the hair from various causes turns
gray, and cories out, indicating disease, this
wonderful preparation restores 1t, to its orig.
inal color and softens the scalp, gi7es new life
to the roots, and by constant application,
even in the aged, it will work admirably.
We recommend it with pleasure, from our
own experience, and from testimonials from
the highest authorities in this country, which
we have hoE before rs.

well. II must be used Immediately. After
application, Il should be exposed to
warmth, gradually increasing almost to
white heat. This cement Is very hard
and presents complete resistance alike to
red heat and boiling water. Another
cement is to mix equal parts of sifted
peroxide of manganese and well.pulverA
zied zinc white, add sufficient quantity
of commercial soluble glass to form thin
paste. This mixture, when used immcdi-
ately, forms a cement quite equal In hard
ness and resistance to that obtained by
the first method. Scientific american.
Iris generally supposed in this country
that soft water is more heslthful than
hard. The London 0ty Press remarks
that the French sardns, when ,inquiring
after water for the supply of Paris, found
that more conscripts are rejected in sofi
water districts, on account Of imperfect
development and stunted growth, than in
the hard and they concluded that calca'
reous matter in water Is essential to the
| formation of tissues. In the British
islands, 1t appears that the death rate IL
| influenced by the water supply, not cnly
as to its sufficiency and the amoutit of or
| ganic matter suspended in it, but also al
to its relative hardness. Glasgow ant
Manchester are supplied with soft waters
and have high death rates; Birmingham
Bristol, Newcastle and Warwick have hare
water and low death rates. II may b,
said that in towns supplied with water o
more than ten degrees of hardness, tn,
average mortality is % per 1000, whil
in those supplied with softer water 1t |
about &c per 1000.

The Books Posted.

THE present Administration came into
power under embarrassments and diff
culties hitherto unknown in this country.
An enormous debt, widespread financial
complications, peace to be kept, and State
governments TO be restored, over one half
the continent, were chief among these en-
tanglements The debt has already been
largely diminished, and, with proper legis.
lation, the entire amount will be funded
on highly favorable terms. The revenue
has been collected. Retrenchment has
been introduced into all departments. The
public peace has been kept, and the State
governments, with single exception, are
already restored to their proper relations
| in the Union. 1t has been an era of com
mon sense, as compared with previous
era of wild extravaganza and speculation
and mad projects, all over the country, to
depete still further the National Treasury

Grant has tried to do what was right, anC

will pass the necessary measures to fur

HOW to Carve.

ALTHOUGH IL is daily duty for many
men and women to cut up meat for a
family there are multitudes who do it
neither well nor wise. The following
suggestions, from an agricultural paper,
on this point, may not be out of place, the
more especially 20 young housekeepers.
To carve fowls, which should always be
laid with the breast uppermost, place the
fork In the breast, and lake off the wings
and legs without turning the fowl; then
cut out the merry thoughts cut slices from
the breast, cut out the collar bone, cut of
the side pieces, and then cut the carcass
in two. Divide the joints in the leg of
turkey.
In carving sirloin, cut thin slices from
the side next you (it must be put on the
dish with the tenderloin underneath), then
turn it, Help the guests to both kinds.
In carving a leg of mutton or ham, be
gin by cutting across the middle to the
bone.
Cut tongue across, and not lengthwise
and help from the middle part
Carve forequarter of lamb by sepa
rating the shoulder from the ribs, and
then divide the ribs. u-n
To carve loin of veal, begin at thu
smaller end, and separate the ribs. He'll
each one to piece of kidney and its fat
Carve pork and mutton in the same way
To carve q tillet of veal, begin at thu
top, and help to the stufflng with eacf
slice. In breast of veal separate thu
breast and brisket, and then cut up, ask
ing which part is preferred.
In carving pig, IL is customary to di
vide it and take off the head before
comes to the table, as to many persons tn
head is revolving. Cut off the limbs ant
divide the ribs.
In carving venison, make deep in
cision down the bone to let out the juice
and turn the broad end toward you, cul
ting deep and in thin slices. War;
plates are very necessary with veDiso
and mutton, and in winter are desirabl
for all meats

The Ant.
BY JOSH BILLINGS,
The ant is menny footed insekt.

The ant is menny footed insekt.
They live about one thousand five hun.
dred and fifty of them (more or less), in
the same hole in the ground, and hold
their property in common.
They have no holy days, no eight hour
system, nor never strike for emmy higher
wages.
They are very cheerful little toilers,
and have no malice, nor back door to their
hearts.
There IL no sedentary loafers among
them, and yu never see one out ov job.
They git up arly, go tew bed late, work
all the time, and eat on the run.
Yu never see two ants argueing sum
phoolish question that neither of them
didn't understand; they didn't kare
whether the moon iz inhabited or not nor
whether fish weighing two pounds, put
into pail oV water ALREADY phull, will
make the pail slop over or weigh more.
They amt hunting after the philoso-
piers stone, nor Citing crazy over the
cause of the sudden earthquakes.
They don't care whether Jupiter is thirty
or thirty-five millions of miles mp in the
air, nor whether the earth bobs around on
its axes or not, so long as it didn't bob
over their korn krib and spill their barley.
They are simple, little bizzy ants, full 0v
faith, working hard, living prudently,
committing no sin, prazeing God by mind
ing their own bizzness, and dieing when
their time comes, tew make room for the
next crop ov ants
They are reproach tew the lazy, an
encouragement tew the industrious, re-
huke tew the vicious, and study tew the
Christian.

WHEN GREEK MEETS GREEK.

One Wetmore radical Ordinary of
Chatham County was recently removed
by Gen. Terry and one A. w. Stone
appointed. The Savannah NecS says,
Stone demanded the keys of office and
the demand was refused by Mr.. Wetmore,
who stated that he did not consider Mr..
Stone his successor, and consequently
would not deliver the keys, that the keys
were there, and if he chose to take them
on his own responsibility, or by the aid
of the Military he could do so, but he,
Wetmore, would bear no part in the
transaction. Mr.. Stone then left and we
understand reported TO the commander,
Major DeRussy, and it was expected
that Stone would be placed in possession
by the Military.
Dir. Wetmore intends to contest the
matter TO the last extremity.
