The Infirmities of Age.

Decrepitude Is the natural accompaniment
Of old age, but II may be ameliorated, and the
period Of entire helplessness long postponed by
the juaieious use of o healthfu stimulant
Physicians, fully aware Of this fact, usually
recommend moderate stimulation when the
strength and vigor Of maturity have been sus-
pended by the feebleness and prostration which
are the inevitable results of declining years.
Port wine. gin, brandy, and other liquors are
often prescribed by medical men for aged per.
sons, but the impulse which fermented and
distilled liquors give 70 the circulation, and
the energy they seem TO impart, is transitory,
unless the alcoholic principle Is modified and
qualified by the presence Of medicinal tonnes
and inyigorants. OF all the combinations OF
diffusiye stimuli with the juices OF herbs, roots
and banks that have ever been administered TO
the aged and infrm, with the view Of sustaining
their waning strength, cheering their dropping
spirits and relieving the aches and pains 10
which they are subjected, none has been found

tinuous application of exactly the requisite
amount Of force to the same end. The mere

DR.. Norton does not know how it got

The Value Of Weed Ashes.

C. II. Coan, of New Lyme, Ohio, de,
sired to be informed whether he bad
better sell his wood ashes for eight cents
per bushel, or say no to the person who
offers that price and scatter them upon
his fields. F. ID. Curtis-"Ashes, un-
leached, are worth at least twenty five
cents per bushel." II. l.. Reade-'I am
grieved TO perceive the renewed evil
dence which this letter affords Of the
fact that tho value of ashes is net suffi-
GENTLY understood. Several years ago,
before ploughing in the spring, raked
the potato vines on o certain field into
windrows aud burned them. The crop
Of oats on these particular lines was
nearly twice as large as on the land five
feet distant; and the yield of grass was
nearly twice as large for at least three
years. l have bought ashes at eighteen
cents a bushel, carted them eight miles.
and consider them the cheapest of all
nanures."
