that eighteen hundred years ago thu value u!

Testament botanical remedies are repeatedly
recommended, but in passage of sncrcd his
tory is man recommended to swallow cal"mel

The sick were directed to eat herbs to strength.
en- them, to purify them, to heal them, to re-
store them In that day the art Of making veg
etable extracts WAS unknown. Tho herbal med.
icines were mere infusions.
It was reserved for later age to unite the
sanitary essences Of tonic, sperient and anti.
bilious roots, barks and plants with An active
stimulant, and thus secure their rapid diffusion
through the debilitatod or disordered system.
The browning triumph Of this effective mode
of concentrating and applying tho virtues OF
medicinal vegetables was achieved in tho pro.
ductlon Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Never
before had perfectly pure alcoholic stimulant

THURSDAY EVENING. JANUARY 70.

A LITTLE BIT OF ROMANCE. -Alth0ueh
for so far this winter, the skies have been un.
usually compassionate in not aggravating with
continuous, intense cold, the hunger and rags OF
poverty, vet an occasional bleak shaft from the
north transfxes houscless wandercr at the
cruel corner of some of our streets.
Early on Friday morning poor young waif
apparently of the past night, with her delicate
figure sculptured relentlessly through q thin
cotton dress, was found almost famished, lean,
ing against lamp-post in street leading into
one OF our principal thoroughfarcs. Her con
dition having been recognized by a kindly house
maid who bad been busting mats at a neigh
boring door, the wretched sufferer was humane
" led into the basement, where after some
time, she was restored to life and animation.
Take her up tenderly.'
Subsequent inquiries revealed the fact that
she was the daughter of once respectable and
wealthy parents who had lost everything
pride, virtue and tortune-in the wine cup,
and who recently dying paupers, had lett her
on that bitter Friday morning without home,
a hope or crust in the world. When discover
ed, she was blindly cropping her way towards
the river, to end her miserlcs, rather than to
enter upon career of shame.
Her touching and simple story reaching the
ear Of the lady Of the house, she was summoned
to her presence, when strange to tell, 1t vas
sscertained, beyond shadow of doubt. that
she was the only child Of once dear friend
who had been lost sight Of for years, but who
through singular interposition OF Providence
was now restored in the person OF her daugh
tern. Y Post.
