The Infrmities Of Age. = Decrepitude Is
tho natural accompaniment Of old age. but 1t
may be ameliorated. and the period Of entire
helplessness long postponed BY the judicious
use Of . healthful s,imulsnt. Physicians.
fully aware of this fact. usually recommend
moderate stimulation when the strength and
yieor Of maturity have been suspended BY the
feehleness and prostration which are the inevi-
tab'e results Of declining years. Port wine'
vin. brandy, aud other liquors. are often pre-
scribei By medical men for aged persons. but
the impulse which fermented and distilled
Houors give to the circulation. and the energy
they seem TO impart. is transitory, unless the
alcoholic principle is modified and Qusihed by
the presence Of medicinal tenics and invigor-
ants. Of all the combinations OF dihasive
stimuli. with the juices Of herbs. roots and
b.rks. that have been administered 10 the aged
and iuerm, with the view Of sustaining their
waning strength, cheering their dropping
sririts and relieving the aches aud pains TO
which they are subjected. none has been found
so sficseious, 10 2 -eeable aud so permanent
In It's Effects as Il ostetter's Stomach Bitters.
The difference, betxeen the effect Of the Bit
tiers and that Of 4 mere exeitant, however
pure, l. the same a. between the effect of a
,uddeu and momentary application of Excess
sive fierce to a given purpose. and the result Of
a steady, continuous application of exactly the
requisite amount Of force to the same end. The
mere spirit Of physical energy produced BY
dram land which Is always succeeded by cor
responding depression) never yet benefited
any man or woman suffering from physical
decay. A cordial like Hestetter's Bittsrs. at
once soothing and inyigoratiDs, is the remedial
,,nnt ren uired.

CORRESPONDENCE.


During to-day and tomorrow the
annual meeting of the Western Re-
serve Association of Bniversalists is
being held in this place, which is be-
ing quite largely attended.
At present there are three religious
societies in this village in good rum
ming order, viz: the Baptists, the Con-
gregationalists,, and the Uniyersalists,
all of which, having good pastors, are
quite we'll attended. Also there are
TIVE Sabbath schools which, are in
fourishing condition, belonging re-
specially to the. Baptist and Congre-
gatianal societies., The Congrega-
tional Sabbath school held q pic mic at
Nelson Ledges On Thursday of last
week. 1t was expected that they
would be Joined on their way thither
by the Maple Grove school, but they
were not able to attend and sent word
to that 1effect.z Soon after arriving at
the lLedges, tables were set and well
loaded down with the choicest food,
supplied bauntifnlly for the occasion.
After paftaking Of the many good
things, some very Interesting remarks
| were made by Rev. Mr.. Matterson, Of
Nelson, NV. Lenper, of Indiana, and
by, the pasteP aof the church. The
pleasant occasion was marred by a
storm of rain, during which all re.
paired to the Cascade House. After
the storm had passed they returned
home. 4Ai
For the last few days it has been re
markably dry for this season and tht
farmers have been very busy; .bu
this morning the air was filled with {
heavy mist which hung.very low ovel

On Wednesday of last week the
Union Sabbath School held pic mic
in beautiful grove, one mile south
of the Center. The exercises were
conducted in an orderly and appro-
pirate manner by AIr. G. 3. Stiison,
assisted by C. J. Moore as marshal,
and the occasionwas one of rare en-
joyment to all ages there assembled,
from the prattling infant to the aged
matron of four score years. The ex-
ercises consisted of short addresses,
some excellent singing accompanied
by music on the organ by Miss NJ.
Moore, Mrs. W. 81. Ridge and Mr.. G.
B. Stilson, and last, but not least, an
excellent dinner, got up in the style
of beauty and attraction for which
the ladies of Mantua are so justly cell
ebrated. We were much pleased to
observe the harmony and good feeling
that prevailed and only wish that such
occasions were more frequently en-
joyed by all, both the oldas Well as
the young.
o. P. Kellogg spoke again in
Vaughn's grove on Sunday last, with
his accustomed force and power, deal
ing some hard blows on the bigotry,
superstition and intolerance of Old
Orthodoxy, as well as advocating the
claims of the beautiful Harmonial
Philosophy. He is lecturer of much
merit, and never fails to present his
ideas in an appropriate and effective
manner.
A few days ago Erastus Smith of
this town sold to Charles Hudson of
Rayenlla, SO fat sheep weighing 1920
lbs, averaging nearly Hobbs. per

The farmers are busy, getting in
their wheat, and win soon commence
cutting up their corn which is now,
nearly ripe enough. VERlTAs.
