Ayers Cherry Pectoral,

For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy ior pulmonary complaints. Through Il long
series OF years, and among most OF the races OF
men mas risen higher and higher in their estima-
uOn, as u mas become better known. Its uniform
cnaracter anu power to cure the various affections
OF the lungs and throat, have made il known as re-
liable protector against them While atlapted to
milder forms OF disease and to younSchildren il Is
at the same time the most enectual remedy thai can
be given for incipcnt consumption, and the dam
gerouS affections of the throat and lungs As n pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Croan it shauid
be kept on hand IN every family, and indeed AS All
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs ali
should be provided with this antidote for them
Although settled Consumption is thought in-
curablc still great numbers of cases where The dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured
aud the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry PectOraf. SO complete Is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, thar
the most obstinate OF them yield to it, When moth
ing else could reach them under the Cherry Pee
forat they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro-
lection from It.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cnrelby il.
BroHchitis Is generally cured BY taking the
Cherry feeto,oi in small and frequent doses.
SO generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here or do more
than assure the public that its qualities fully
maintained.

THE FIRST WOMAN IN TRNITY CouNTY.-Big
bar is said to be the place where the first woman
made her first johnny cake in Trinity county in

amount OF courage unusual in females. During
the first year Of her residence here, her husband
when at some distance from the house, had his

In the Rainy season


When the earth is saturated with moisture, and
the air is surcharged with aaghOlesOme exhala-
tons, the vital forces of the body are less active
than ia clear weather, nnd the spirits correspond
ingly depressed. 1t is anaer sIch eireum stances
that the invigosating, vivifyng and cheering
properties of H0sTErVEa's STOMACH BiTTeRs are
made especially manifest. Half wine-gta
full, taken three times day, will SO tone and
strengthen the digestive organs and the nervous
system, that neither the miasma arising from
the wet soil, nor the gloom of a sunless sky
will produce the usual effect upon the health
and spirits. Persons who peculiarly sessi-
tive TO external changes, will fnd this agreeable
tonic the best means OF steeling their systems
against the vicissitudes of temperature, and all
variations in the state of the atmosphere. What
the poet, Cowper, said OF teas, applies with ten
fold force to this nestima able nerviae stOmachic.
" It cheers but not inebriates. This however, is
only of it's merits It literally revolu tionizes
the condition of the feeble, debiiiated and des-
ponding- mparting healthfuI activity to the Sc
eretive organs, regulating the bowels, aud Civ
ing new and permanent impulse TO the efete
and torpid animal machinery The miad, SYM
pathizing with the refreshed and invigorated
body, RECEIVERS its elasticity, and life takes a
brighter aspect under the effects of this harmless
vegetable eKhiarant.

A FARMER named Chilson, living near
Girard, Ohio, thinking to rid his cornfeld
of troublesome ground hog, managed
strychnine which killed him nearly in
stantly. The carcase was suspended to q
tree, where the crows soon espied the sa-
worry bit and proceeded to appease their
appetites. After partaking Of the meal,
the crow would fly short distance as if
in agony, and fall dead to the ground.
The bones, being thoroughly stripped of
the flesh, remained exposed to the bleach
ing influence of sunshine, rain and frost,
for nearly two years, when, falling to the
ground, highly -prized dog masticated
parts OF them, and died ten minutes after
wards. az. '.-
A GRACEFUL story is told of Lamartine.
One day penniless man of letters called
upon him, and, informing him Of his
| needy situation, requested the loan of a
considerable sum of money. Lamartine,
who was much moved by the recital,
opened drawer and gave him the amount.
He then conducted his unfortunate visitor
to the vestibule. The season was autumn,
and as Lamartine opened the street door,
the unfortunate author shivered in his
shabby coat. A sudden idea struck Lam
artine, and calling out Monsieur, you
are forgetting your overcoat," he quickly
took down an overcoat that was hanging
in the passage, and assisted his needy Wis
tor to put it on with so much dexterity
and grace, that the poor man, quite over
come, did not know how to refuse gift
which was SO delicstely offered to him.

Help for the Miserable.

No wonder that the face of the dyspeptic has q
dragged worn, hopeless expression that Is pitiful
to see. No wonder that the miserable martyr to
indigestion is fretful, irritable, and unsocia Who
ever can bear the pangs of this tornenting COM
plant cheerfully, and with an unrufied temper is
little short of saint. But why should human
fort1tude continue to be thus sorely tried when an
absolute specific for the disease is always at hand
Everywhere within the limits of civilization in this
hemisphere Hostetters Stomach Bitters is obtain
aoe, and the history of the first case of dyspepsia
in which it has been administered in vain, has yet
to be written The sickness of the stomach, the
sense OF weakness and stupOr. the feeling of emp
tlness and hollowness before eating, and
OF oppression afterwards, the futterng of
the pulse. the intense nervous irritation,
the morbid indisposition to exertion, the
WEAKNESS of life, ard indifference to all
its pleasures, which are among the symptoms of
the disease in its chronic form, are rapidly anne
horated by the tonic operation of this palatable
vegetable restorative, which seems to renovate
and quicken all the dormant forces of the system,
and rouse the min from the apathy and gloom in
seperable from arrangement of the digestive and
secretlve functions In ordinary cases few weeks
su1nce TO complete the cure but when the disease
IS complicated as it often is with torpidity of the
liver, severe constipation impurity of the blood,
required. Persevere, however. and the result is
certain. An encouraging Improvement will be
perceptible from day to day. and the convalescent,
knowing or feeling that be or she is on the high
road to health, will await the happy issue with
comparative patience

A "Gamekeeper's" Joke.

A friend of mine, said Barnum, Mr.
James d. johnson, lived in fine house a
| quarter OF mile west of Iranistan, and as
L owned several acres of land al the cor
ner OF two streets directly adjoining his
homestead, surrounded the ground with
high pickets, and introducing number of
Rocky Mountain elk, reindeer and Ameri-
can deer, converted it into deer park.
Strangers passing by would naturally sup
pose that it belonged to Johnson's estate,
and to render the illusion more complete,
his son law, Mr.. S FL. Wales, of the
Scsea1t9tic american, placed sign in the
park, fronting on the street, and reading:
"All persons are forbid trespassing on
these grounds, or disturbing the deer. j.
d. Johnson" 81 ~
I acknowledged the corn" and was
much pleased with the joke. johnson
was delighted, and Dragged considerably
sign remained undisturbed for several
days. 1t happened at length that party
of friends came to visit him from New
York arriving in the evening. johnson
told them he had got capital joke on
Barnum; he would not explain, but said
they should see it for themselves the next
morning. Bright and early he led them
into the street, and, after conducting them
a proper distance, wheeled them around
in front of the sign. To his dismay, he
discovered that / had added directly under
his name the words, "Gamekeeper to P
T. Barnum." His friends, as soon as they
understood the joke, enjoyed it nightly,
but it was said that neighbor johnson
laughed out Of the wrong side of his
mouth. r. Is hop p YY9 -v
Thereafter Mr.. johnson was known
among his friends and acquaintance as
"Barnum's gamekeeper." Some time af-
terward, when [ was President of the
Pequonnock Bank, it was my custom
every year to give a grand dinner at
Iranistan to the directors, and in making
preparations [ used to send to certain
friends IN the West for prairie chickens
and other game. On one occasion large
box, marked "P. T. BarnJ1n, Bridgeport
Came" was lying in the express office,
when johnson seeing it, and espying the
word "game," said: Look here 2 l am
Barnum's gamekeeper,' and I'll take
charge of this box
And "take charge" of it he did, car
rying it home and notifying me that it
was in his possession, and that, as he was
my gamekeeper, he would "keep" this,
unless I sent him an order for new
hat He knew very well that | would
give fifty dollars rather than be deprived
OF the box; and as he also threatened to
give game-dinner at his own house, ]
speedily sent the order for the hat, ac-
knowledged the good joke, and my own
guests enjoyed the double "game. -
