seek the water; q straight and tapering
stem, with beautiful, glossy, green leaves,
will shoot upward, and present a very
pleasing appearance. Chestnut trees may
be grown In this manner, but their leaves
are not as beautiful as those of the oak.
The water should be changed once month

prevent the water from souring. If the
little leaves turn yellow, add one drop of
ammonia into the utensIl which holds the
water, and it will renew their luxuriance.

Iii now over forty years since this medicine was
offered a remedy for Worms, and from that time
its reputation has steadily increased until az the
present day 1t Is almost universally Acknowledged
throughout nearly all parts Of the world to be the
sODsreiOD remedy. Worm Connections, made more
for the purpose of pleasing the palate than Of over
coming the disease, have been manufactured all
over the country but their short lease of life is
nearly exhausted, and B. A Fahnestoek's Vermifuge
continues to grow in favor daily. Children often

Goorns and spasms are most frequently the result
Of these hidden sappers ana miners.

the presence Of these hidden sappers and miners

the nourishment impaired to the stomach by whole

and 3 strong desire for indigestible food.
The stomach has, undoubtedly, a very great
sympathy with other parts of the body. This is
the with respect to the irritation produced by
worms, especially those existing in the stomach
itself They give rise to many other diseases, and
patients often suffer incredibly without being aware
Of the cause.
Many helpless child has been laid in the grave
when the disease which caused its death has been
entirely misunderstood, and when worms have
really been the cause. 1t has been proved beyond

Great caution must be used by every purchaser,
to be his own judge in one sense, and to examine
