For about months have been using KEN
NEDY's CONCENTRATED EXTRACT OF PINUs
CANADENsIs in affections of the rectum, vagina
and cervix uteri, and consider it most val
liable remedy. have used it diluted with wa
ter as vaginal wash, with great success; but 1
prefer to apply it to the os tiacae on cotton
WOOL either pure or mixed with glycerine, or
glycerine and rose-water. Thus applied it
should remain intact for two or three days and
then be renewed. In this way have seen
chronic granular vaginitis remedies in a few
days that had resisted the ordinary remedies
for weeks; 1 have seen granular erosions, with
leucorrhn disappear very rapidly under its use.
1 have not time to say all that could about
it; but am sure that it will soon be recognized
as valuable addition to our Materia Medica
Knowing Mr. Kennedy as 1 dol can confident

His method of manufacturing the extract is
such as to warrant it of uniform strength and

The Story of Well Known Oil Man.

On Monday last Mr.. Henry Fisher.
Of Tidioute, one of the wealthiest ana
most respectable citizens of this region.
visited the Milton Farm, on the Allie
gheny Valley Railroad. Mr. Fisher
visited that locality on business, which
is a way Mr.. Fisher has, and after trans
acting his business Mr.. Fisher proceed
ed to return-that is he toOk passage
on the train bound for Oil City. As
is usual on passenger trains, q conduc-
tor was aboard, and on his interogat-
ing Mr.. Fisher for his ticket or equiv
alent, could obtain neither. Mr.. Fish
er was strapped" He had lost his
pocket-boOk and contents; when or
where was a conundrum which remsin-
ed unsolved. The loss of the pocket
book did not bother Mr.. Fisher in the
least, but the loss Of its contents was
rather embarrassing for the time being.
In fact, such a loss would tickle the
ribs of an umbrella. The pooket.book
contained Sl75 in greenbacks; one
$50 500 bond with all the coupons
attached, which was preserved az q
curiosity, a solitaire diamond pin val
ued at $780, three railroad passes
several business cards, etc. Mr.. Fish
er quietly kept his own counsel rs to
his loss, and also kept one eye open for
Developments"
Last evening, Mr.. Fisher took pas
sage at Oil City on the up train for
Titusville, and was a little surprised
at observing his diamond pin adjoining
the shirt bosom of a young man whose
visible means of support are limited,
and whose front name is e. G. Cook.
1t is unnecessary TO say that young
Cook was captured" but such was
the case. Mr.. Fisher asked him if he
was not sporting property that belong
ed to other parties, when Cook replied
that "he'd give 'er up"-the property,
not the conundrum-and accordingly
handed Mr.. Fisher his pin, pocket
book, passes, and ten dollars in money.
Cook stotsd that he had found the
pocket book, but did not tell when or
where, and that he sold the bond in Ii
tusville, and had squandered the pro-
ceeds and the balance Of the money
that he had been offered 800 for the
pin, but thought it worth more and so
held it for "rise." He also stated
that he did not know to whom ths
property belonged, which was undoubt.
edly true, as Mr.. Fishers name deco
rated the different passes, cards, etc.
Not wishing to create a disturbance
Mr.. Fisher allowed the young man to
depart in peace, though, had justice
been done, he would undoubtedly have
departed in pieces.

Aneodote of Webster.
A correspondent of Harper,s Mont.

A correspondent of Harper's Month
ly says:
In looking over an old note bosk Of
my fathers, written many years ago, /
came across an anecdote which, If it
has never appeared in print before, is
too good to be lost. While John
Branch, of North Carolina, was Gem
eral Jackson's Secretary of the Navy,
he, Tazewell, and Daniel Webster were
walking on the north side of the Poto-
mac, at Washington, Tazewell, willing
TO amuse himself with Braneh's sim
plicity, said: Branch, III bet you
teu-dollar hat that you are on the other
side of the river"
"Done," said Branch.
"Well," said Tazewell, pointing to
the opposite shore, "isn't that one side
of the river?"
"Yes."
"Then, as you are here, are you not
on the other side"
"Why. / declare" said poor Branch,
$50 it is But here comes Webster,
I'll win back the hat from him."
Webster had Jagged behind, but now
came up, and Branch sccosted him:
webster, I'll bet you ten-dollAr
hat that can prove that you are on
the other side Of the river"
"DoneW
"WeIl, isn't this one sidsp
"Yes."
"Well, isn't that the other side p
"Yes, but am not on that side )"
Branch hung his head and submit
ted to the loss of the two hats as quiet
ly as he could.

Why Women Wed.

Some clever observer Of social rela-
tions, having looked about among his
married acquaintance, ventures to
give the following list, with an attempt
10 indicate the real reasons which in
fluenco too many to marry:
Number one has married for home.
She got tired working in factory or
teaching school-she thought married
life on earth was but moonlight walks.
buggy rides, new bonnets, and nothing
to do. Well, she has got her home
whether or not she is tired of the in.
cumbrances this deponent does not
positively know.
Number two married becouse she
had seven young sisters and papa
with narrow income. She consulted
the interests Of her family. Perhaps
she would letter have consulted her
interests by taking in light washing OF
going out by the day to work.
Number three married because Mrs
sounded so much better than Miss. She
was twenty-nine years and eleven
months old, and another month would
have transformed her into a regular
old maid. Think how awful that would
have been.
Number four married because she
wanted somebody to pay her bills.
Her husband married her for precisely
the same reason; SO they are both la
menting at leisure.
Number five married because Fanny
White had nice new husband, and
she wasn't going to be left behind.
Pity if she couldn't get married as
well as other folks.
Number six married because she
was poor and wanted riches. She new
er counted on all other things that
were inseparable from those coveted
riches.
Number seven married because she
thought she would like to travel. But
Mr.. number seven changed his mind
afterward, and all the travelling shs
has done has been between the well
and the back kitchen door.
Number eight had married out oi
spite, because her first love had taken
to himself second Lowell This piece
Of retaliation might have done hel
good AT the time, but in the run mum
Der eight found that it did not pay.
Number nine married because she
had read novels and wanted sympathy
/ Sympathy is fine thing. but it cooli
down at rapid rate if the domesti,
kettle is not kept boiling, and the do
mestic turkey is undone. Novels anC
housekeeping don't run very well to
! gether in harness, to use a sporting
phrase, and number mines supply o
sympathy don't hold out very long.
Number ten married because sh
loved her husband with all her hear
and all her soul. And she loves hin
still, and will probably continne t.
love him, and is the happiest wife il
the world-so she says.
We have all the right motive a
last-one which, when sanctifed by
desire and resolution to prove and ele
vate each othor, and to live true an,
holy lives before God, cannot fail t,
call down the blessings of heaven
But sad is the fate of those who MARI,
from wrong motives to escape thei
share of life's work or to get some
thing for which they have nothing t.
give in return.

DoN'T BE TOO SENsITIvE.-There
are some people, yes, many people, al
ways looking out for sights. They
cannot carry on the daily intercourse Q
of the family without some ofIense is
designed. They are as touchy as hair
triggers. If they meet an acquaintance
in the street who happens to be pre-
occupied with business, they attribute
his abstraction in some mode personal
to themselves, and take umbrage ac-
cordingly. They lay, on others the
fault Of their irritability. A fit of in
digestion makes them see impertinence
in everybody they come in contact
with. Innocent persons, who never
dreamed of giving ofiense, are astonish-
ed to find some unfortunate word, or
some monetary taciturnity, mistaken
for an insult. To say the least, the
habit is unfortunate 1t is farS wiser
to take the more charitable view of
our fellow beings, and, not suppose a
slight is intended unless the neglect is
open and direct. After all, too, life
takes its use in a great degree from
the color of our own mind. If we are
frank and generous the world treats
us kindly. If, on the eontary, we are
suspicious, men learn to be cold and
cautious to us. Let person get the
reputation of being touchy, and every
body is under more or lest restraints
and in this way the chances Of an i'm
sginsfy ofiensc are vastly increased.

The "Fat Contributor" Girls, of the
Cincinnati Times, has the following in
regard to an old conductor promoted
to train dispatcher: "Habit was very
strong with the ex-conductor. As he
sat in the office he would start every
time he heard bell ring, and yell
'All aboard Then he would 90
about the Office at intervals and try to
collect fare of the assistants. We
dropped in causually one afternoon,
and Billy wanted to know if we had a
pass. He couldn't get accustomed to
his new position at all. He pined to
be again on the road. One day he
begged the boys to put him through a
collision, which they did to his entire
qualification. They tore bis clothes
nearly of, blackened his eyes, broke a
kerosene lamp over his head, and piled
q red-hot stove on top of him. Billy
was in an ecstacy of delight, and de-
clared he hadn't enjoyed himself SO
much since he had bile"
Beecher says: believe in novels.
l think that if they are good they are
useful. / believe that they are no
more to be disallowed than any other
part of literature. They can be made
to serve the very best ends of economy
of virtue and morality, to say nothing
of religion; but a man who feeds on
nothing else but these, how miserable
and how wretehed he is These are
the whips and syllabus of life. They
are not the bread nor the meat. They
are the confections of life. But ought
e man to sit down and eat sugar-plums
for his dinner, and nothing but sugar
plumsl
The Detroit Free Press says: Eyes
terday, on one of the ferry boats, a pas
senger saw man bring aboard a
bushel basket, and while looking
around, seeking to see under the cover
a roll of the boat sent him head first
into the basket with a loud crash.
Drawing his head out, the fellow ex-
claimed "Why, hang it, them's aigs,
them is |" And so they were, and he
paid two cents apiece for the thirteen
which we're crushed under his head"

Mumlmg the Throat.

What is the best mode Of protecting
the throat from colds, where a person
is very susceptible to them? The COM
mon way of protecting the throat is to
bundle and wrap il up closely, thus
overheating and rendering it tender
aud sensitive, and more liable to colds
and Inflammation than before. This
practice is all wrong, and results in
much evil. Especially is this the case
with children, and when, in addition
to the mufiing of the throat, the ex-
tremities are insufficiently clad, as is
often the case, the best possible condi-
lions are presented for the production
Of sore Threats, coughs, Group and all
sorts of throat aud lung affections. 1t
Is very wrong TO exclude cold air from
the neck. and if it is over-heated por-
ton OF the time, when ii is exposed
some form of disagreemento of the throat
will be apt TO occur. The rule in regard
TO clothing the neck should be to keep
it as cool as comfort will allow. In do
ing SD you will suffer much less from
throat ailments than if you nre always
fearful OF having n little cold air come
in contact with the neck Any one
who has been accustomed to have his
throat muft1ed should be careful to
leave off gradually and not all at once.

With a flock Of one thottsand fowls at

This area should be fenced iH with
boards or piekets, and houses erected
large enough to accommodate one hum

and laying, 1t is not essential that
these houses should be expensive, but
they should face the south, and the

management the success OF the poultry
largely depends. In addition 10 the
poultry house, there should be provided
numbers Of low sheds, beneath Which
the fowls may take shelter from the
heat Of the sun or from storms.
Care should be taken to prevent the
Ingress Of YeTmin, skunks, weasels, ETC.,
10 the grounds, and one or more good
logs should be confined within the in
closure care being taken to secure dogs
which will not trouble the fowls, but
which are good watch dogs, and vigil

Of the grounds, and building of the
houses and sheds having been completed
the stock may be procured.
For al practical purposes, the COM
mon dunghill fowl is as good as any, as
We have proved completely to our salts
faction. In selecting a stock. take hens
from one to two years old, bright eyed,
clean legged fowls, as large and well
formed as can be obtained. There is no
need of a grower with the large flOcks
tic breeders being selected and Kept
separate from the others; for laying
purposes, hens do better away from q
cock than with one and if a number Of
male birds are together, the fights and
troubles VIII be incessant. The care OIL
the poultry is not great after they arC
placed in the park. The fowls selected
tor breeding purposes should be kept in
hOckS Of twenty, in yards separate from
the others, and each of these small fiOck'
should haze a male bird. These bird:
should be the very best to be obtained
strong, well formed, and hardy, and tho
cock should be two years old, healthy
strong, and courageous. We believe
that Brahma cock, such as we hev,
described, crossed with the dunghil
fowls, would get better and more mark
etablc chickens than would any other
breed. This, however, Is for the poul
tcrcr to decide.
