Sinking Slowly.

Diseases that progress rapidly TO acrisis are
not the only ones to be dreaded. Canker or
dry rot does net blast tree as suddenly as a
stroke of lightning, but unless arrested it de-
stroys it as certainly and in like manner
chronic debility, although 1t does not kill with
the swiftnoss of yellow fever, is as sure to sap
the springs of life eventually as any acute dis.
ease if net checked by invigorating medication.
There is something inexpressibly toaching in
the spectacle of premature decay. Languor,
pallor, emaciation, depression of spirits, and a
distaste for exertion. are its ordinary symptoms,
and they should be promptly met by tonic treat
ment The best invigorant and exhilarant that
can be administered in a case Of this kind is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The stimulating
priciple of the preparation rOuses the dormant
energies of the system, and the strengthening
and regulating properties give permanent and
heathful impulse to the vital forces thus brought
into play. The failing appetite is re awakened,
the process of digestion and assimilation are
quickened, the quality of the blood isimproved,
the sQcretions become more natural, and every
organ that contributes to the nourishment of
the body undergoes salutary change. By these
means the repair of the physical structure is
effected and its health and vigOr restored. In
ne class of diseases has the benihcent operation
of the Btters been more marked and striking
than in those characterized by general debility
and nervous prOstratiOn. Ladies affected with
these ailments find in this most wholesome OF
all tOnics and corTectives the safest and surest
means OF relief. 1t is strong to restore and
powerless TO iriure Such is the uniform testi.

EGectof Pasturipz Glover

Last summer had abont four acres
of the large English clover in field.
fenced off little over three acres, and
pastured it with two COWS and four
hogs, when not wet. Commenced pas
turing when in full bloom; the other
part was moved. At this time ~(March
1lth)all that part that was not pastured
is apparently dad, having been frozen
out during the winter, most of the
clover roots being thrown entirely out
of the ground; while that portion which
was not pastured is in fine condition, none
ut all, or very little, having been thrown
out by frost.
This has been hard winter on wheat.
Present appearance would indicate poor
crops this year. A great deal has been
frozen out during the many changes
that have occurred during the winter:
although at this time last year the
wheat was in as poor condition as the
wheat is now, and crops were above an
average.

a Gopd Hog Story,

From Dom Piatt's curious article
"About Hogs" in LippiRcotfs Magazine
for April, we take the following original
hog story: / once witnessed fight
between o pony and boar, in which
beth sides exhibited good deal of that
natural art of war to which Mr.. Corwin
referred as blessing the many militia
colonies of Congress. had ridden home
one afternoon upon my little sturdy
Tough Dick, and, turning him loose in
the stable lot, poured upon the ground
O quantity of corn to serve him
as dinner. Upon this, huge
boar, nearly as large and quite
as heavy as the pony, frosted up,
unbiddeu, to take part In the re-
past. Tough Dick, not liking the com
pany nor the loss of his prevender, bit
the hog, who in return threw up his
tusk, catching the pony's nOstril upon
the sharp point, and inf1icting an ugly
little wound. Quick as thought al
most, the pony wheeled and planted his
The blow sounded like that of a fail,
and rolled the hog over. Nothing
daunted, he regained his legs and again
made at the little horse. The plucky
creature was ready for him, and again
sent the hog rolling. This second
charge seemed to give the boar realiz-
ing sense of the inequality of such a
contest. Regaining his feet again, he
trotted some PAGES away and stood con-
templating his foe from under his long
ears, grunting and swapping his jaws III
wrath and disgust. Tough Dick, with
his ears drawn back, eyed his antagon-
list as If expecting a renewal of the
conflict. After some seconds the boar
beganl walking in circle about the
pony. He kept beyond the reach of his
heels, and would at times walk,
and at times trot; and all the
while Tough Dick kept his eye on
and his heels toward the foe. This con-
tinued for some time, and might have
ended in the hogs retreat, but the pony
was hungry and aggravated at tho in
terruption TO his meal. In an unhappy
moment he attempted to take mouth.
full of corn. The boar, Selling the ad-
vantage, rushed in. Escaping the heels,
he charged in under the belly of the
pony, aud would have Inflicted an ugly
wound with his tusks, but the force OF
his attack carried him beyond the point
Of danger, and before he could escape
the wicked pony had him by the ear
precisely as dog would have caught
him. The boar squealed dismally, and
began turning so as to bring his tusks
under the throat or jaw of the enemy.
Slowly but steadily he swung atOnnd,
suffering intense torture in thu twisting

boar likely to gain his point, the pony
suddenly released the ear. The two
had been pulling with their entire
weight against each other, asd the I'M
expected release staggered the.hog, and
ere he could recover well-directed
kick rolled him over. | thought him
killed; but he slowly recovered, and,
rising to his feet, staggered, away, paus-
ing at times to shake his ugly head, as
if wondering how it all came about.
