A single spark may kindle a flame that will consume
q city. and small ailments neglected, may end inlfatal
disorders. Bearing this fact in mind. let the first symp-
toms of debility or nervous prostration be met prompt
ly with inyigorating treatment. Foremost among the
Vegetable.tonics of the age stands Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. and whenever the vital powers seem to Ian
guish. or there Ia any reason to suspect that the animal
functions essential to the sustenation and publication
of the body are imperfectly performed this invaluable
invigorant and antiseptic should at once be resorted to.
Indigestion always. produces weakness Of the bodily
powers. Sometimes it happens that the appetite de-
mands more food than the stomach can digest; though
not more, perhaps, than is required to keep up the full
strength of the frame. The object under such circum-
stances, is to increase the digestive capacity of the as
similating organ, 50 as to make it equal to the duty i'm
posed upon It by the appetite. and capable of Supplying
the building material Of he system as fast as it is re-
quired. This object is fully accomplished by the use Of
the Bitters. They tone and gently stimulate the cellu-
lar membrane which seeretes the gastric juice, and the
result is that the solvent is mingled with the food in
sufficient quantity to convert all its nourishing parti-
cles into pure and wholesome element. II on the
other. hand, there is q deficiency CT appetite. without
any corresponding deficiency of digestive power, the
effect Of the tonic Is to stimulate a desire for food
In nineteen cases out OF twenty, headache, nausea,
nervousness, fainting=fts. spasms, and. indeed. most of
the casual aches and pains to which humanity Is sub
ject. proceed primarily from indigestion complicated
with biliousness and for both these complaints Hos
letters Stomach Bitters are recommended as a speedy
and certain remedy. O.

Messrs. j. N. Harris q Co.:
DEAR Sms-I have sold some Of DR.. s. A. weaver's
Canker and Salt Rheum Syrup, from my store. and 1

OF its use in my own home. My daughter has been
afflicted with scrofula for three years. A lady Doc

diseases in this section Of the State, doctored her for
some hheeu months. but seemed 70 do the girl no
good. 1 was then advised to try DR.. Rose, Of Dayton.
He had her under treatment for about sixteen months,
and could not effect a cure. j attended the State Fair
at Springfield last fall. accompanied by my family. /
there met q gentleman, who, seeing my daughter 50

My daughter then could not see at all, her eyes be-
ing blinded by the humors; her mouth and jaws badly
affected; she had two liberated sores, one on her hip
eral pieces Of bone had been taken out. Up to this
time i had not spent less than 800 In medicines for
her, and with it an she got nc, better. but when she had
menced TO get better. She has now used since October
eight bottles of Syrup. Her eyes are entirely restored
to sight, and the sores are healed up. i think a little

known, that others similarly AFFLICTED will learn Of the
medicine to cure them. think any one afflicted with
Scrofula can save large doctor bills. and get cured BY

Any person who knew the condition of my daughter
and any person who wants to Inquire further about
the cure can write to me. and 1 will satisfy them that
DR.. Weayer's Syrup and Cerate cnred that disease

much in favor of DR.. WeaVer's medicine, to make

The london Times special dispatch
from Versailles says the Montmsrtreists
have stopped a train en- route, with prs

ment of line resisted all efforts to induce
them to Join the insurgents, and upon
their arrival at Versaillesiwere received
enthusiastically by the authorities, the
people, and the troops. Their ofhcers
were at once promoted.
Gen. Schlottom, Prpssian comman-

to the commander of Paris to the enect
that the Germans occupying the forts on

attitude while nothing hostile IS done,

Minister of Foreign Affairs replied that
the revolutionary proceedings are purely
as to municipal affairs, and can in no
sense be regarded as aggressive toward
Germany. The delegate adds that he
has no jurisdiction, and cannot discuss
the matters in reference to the prellmI-
naries of peace which were voted by the
Assembly at Bordeaux.
Admiral Soisset was present, with
friends of order, at the Place Vendome

A WILL, disposing of nearly 100000
worth of property, is being contested in
the courts in Louisville, KY, by the
children and h~eirs-at-law of the tesla
tor, to none of whom was devised any
part of his estate. The grounds relied
on are that the testator was the subject
of apoplexy some nineteen years ago,
which caused a permanent and fatal
lesion in his brain, affecting and impair
ing his mind in a material degree, and
especially causing him to. be subject to
delusive suspicious, resulting in dis
agreements and obstinate dislikes to his

A Horse for q Wife.
From the windham Comm Journal.

From the Windnam lCOnn-l JouIbhA-
These wife sales are getting numerous
nowadays: Week before last we have
an account of a case at Jewett, where a
wife was sold for twenty-five cents.
Now we have to record a similar trans
action which tooktplace in Ashland. In
this instance the wife was traded for a
horse. aat- a.: eFas'H r.
Milo Waterman has endured the
thraldom of a married life for some
years, but lately the letters have become
CALLING, Inc consequently very unpleas-
ant, and he resolved to throw off the
woke and proclaim himself free. But it
is not an easy matter to shake Oft such
a responsibility as q wife, and friend
Waterman was in a quandary. he didn't
know exactly what to do, and the more
heEpondered, the more difficult seemed
to be his situation. Finally, day
last week, Milo ran across a neighbor
named John Milford, who is ever ripe
for a bargain, and after some converse
ton, in which they descanted on the
respective merits of wife and horse, a
bargain was " struck up" milford was
to take Waterman's wife, and Water
man, Mulford's horse.
Waterman took his horse home, put
him in the stable, and retired. But he
could not sleep. He tossed n~ervously
upon his pillow, and began to think OF
his wife. True, they had their cups
and DOWNS" but, after all, hadn't she
sometimes been good to him? Then he
thought of the many happy moments
they had spent together, of their love
and courtship, of their marriage, and
their honeymoon, and Milo began tc
regret the trade. AT last he could en-
dure it no longer. He got up, stole out
to the barn in the dead of the night
took out the old horse, and proceeding
to Mulford's, woke him up, and wanted
to trade back. But milford couldn't
see it. Waterman begged, but Mulford
was memorable. After considerable
pickering, however, the latter agreed
to let Waterman nave back his spouse

KALAMA.-A gentleman just from Ka-
lama informs us that the sale of lots in this
railroad town was opened the early part of
the present week, and sales effected the
first day to the amount Of 100000, and yet
the rush of purchasers seemed undated.
The Railroad Company plated 1000 lots
for sale, and it is believed the profits on
the sales Of these lots will be amply suff.
cient to pay for the building and equip
ping Of the first twenty-five miles of the
road now under contract. The rush and
excitement there is represented as fully as
great as in the first settlement of any Of
the mining towns which sprung up as if
by magic 10 California, Nevada and-Idaho.
If the property holders of Olympia exer.
else liberal discretion, they may see as
great rush and demand for real estate ID
this town within the next six months.

OLYMpTA.-Thc following is an extract
from the description of this town 10 Lang
ley's Pacific Coast Directory. for 1871:
The town being thus centrally situated is
beauty of the location is as superior as il is
commercially advantageous. Lying at the
foot of the surrounding hills and mountains,
of which the snow-capped Olympus is the
browning glory ON one hand, and the symctri-
cal Rainier lowering above the clouds on the
other, it enjoys grand scenic view Of noun
tain and valley, land and water Of unsurpass-
ed loneliness. The streets are broad and reg
ular, delightfully."- shaded by rows of maple and
aspen, and the comfortable homes of citizens
are empowered in fruitful orchards, the dwell
ers literally living beneath their own vine
and fig tree" This is the San Jose of the
north, of similar situation and beauty, and is
equally the pride of her people. Many believe
it to be the future terminus Of the Northern
Pacific Railroad, and as such the great city of
the West. Quite sure will it be the terminus
of any road connecting the Sound with the
Columbia, the valley Of the Willamette and
California. 4 few miles south are the falls of
Tumwater, three beautiful cascades in the Des
Chutes, where that river tumbles from the
plains of the upper valley to the waters of the
Sound. With such attractive surroundings,
and such magnificent resources in view, it
needs no inspiration of prophecy to cast the
future of Olympia. Here are churches and
good schools, all well maintained, q costly
City Hall, Court House and Jail, Lodges Of
Masons, DDS Fellows and Good Templars, and
four newspapers, the highest evidence Of en-
lightenment, order and good society.
