A Good Recommendation.

A patent medicine vcnder in one of our
principal cities, was dilating to a, large crowd
upon the wonderful efficacy of his iron bitters,
pronouncing them the great panacea, and all
potent in building up an "iron constitution"
"That is so-that is so,' said by-stander,
"What he tells you is fact, gentlemen
every word of it."
"Hear that, will you ?" cried the delighted
quack "here is living testimony right before
Your own eyes-a man who has used the Bit
tiers, and can recommend them"
"No; not exactly that" replied the fellow !;
81 have never used the stuff myself; but, you
see, Steve jenkins did, and they jest saved
his life."
elbows that ?" questioned some one.
"Well, you sec, Steve had taken the Bit
tiers Jest one week before he was showed in
prison for murder. He was stripped of every
Thing in the shape of iron about him, and
vet he made bar and worked his way out"
probably he had. whisky enough in him
to furnish bar" suggested wag.
'No, but he didn't" retorted the first
"He had been taking this mans iron bitters,
dye mind and what does Steve do but open
n vein in his arm, and took iron enough out
of his blood to make crowbar, and pried the
gates open with it, and let himself out Fact ~
