Medical Mistakes.

1t took the faculty about a thousand years to
discover that tho best way to cure disease was
not to render the patient too weak to contend
with 1t. Within the last twenty years, however,
the whole system Of medical practice has been
changed for the better. In diseases or COM
plants caused by excessive heat, for instance,
the doctors no longer recommend the reduction
OF the lnyalid's strength BY prostrating medi-
cines. The vast success which has attended the
use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as a remedy
for debility has given even the most prejudiced
members Of the old school an insight Into the
only true and rational theory Of cure. Gambia
rides, calomel and overpowering doses OF opium
arc now among the obsolete nostrums OF On.
other age. The lancet, once as much the legiti-
mate weapon Of the physician as the sword 10
OF tho soldier, Ia seldom drawn from Its case.
Tho principle Of life 10 no longer drained from
tho veins BY the quart, and water.gruel for the
s~trcngthless invalid has ceased to be considered
an appropriate diet. vigor is the motto Of the
rational members Of the profession, and they
understand, at last, the value OF . sterling veg.
etable tonic. so, also, with the people at large;
and without consulting medical men at all, they
have adopted tho Bittsrs as q household RENE.

Note the fact, that Hostetter's Stomach Bit

that the abortions sphnging up In various parts
Of the country, and sometimes offered a. sub
stitutes for the great national specific, are all
utterly worthless. sulo-1w

An 100000 Diamond-It Involves
a Law-suit-History of the Dia.
mond

A dispatch last night from our
correspondent /" Morgan" in Jack
sonville, announces tbat a suit, in"
volving probably nearly a million
of dollars. was commenced yester.
day in the Morgan county Circuit
court, by Rebecca w. Vail, Will
liam ii. Carson, Nancy Roe, Mary
baker and eight others, against Kit
ty Flynn, Thomas M. Carson,
Thomas Roe and fourteen othres.
The bill alleges that on day
too remote to be mentioned with
certainty, but about one hundred
years ago, ono William Roe, of
the State Of Virginia, became pos
sessed by discovery of certain
gem or precious stone, remarkable
for its hardness and brilliancy,
and so far as has been tested, its
characteristics are those of dia-
mond of the first water; that this
precious stone is oval in shape,
and about one and q half inc res
in diameter the other way, and
that it is of great value, viz, $780,
600; that said stone is now iE the
hands Of Thomas M. Carson, of
jacksonville. The plaintiffs in this
great suit pray that the defendants
be compelled to bring into court
the precious stone, and that a re-
ceiver be appointed by the court
to sell said diamond and distrib-
ute tho proceeds among the heirs.
Mr.. Thomas M. Carson, of this
city, a plasterer and bricklayar, is
heir to one-sixth part of this dia.
mond of alleged almost fabulous
valne.
The character and immense val.
nc OF this precious stone, as we
are informed, was but recently
known, although it has been in
possession of William Roe and
heirs for over hundred years.
If a decree of the court be obtain.
ed according to tho prayer of the
plaintiffs in the case, that q receiv
er be appointed to take charge of
the stone and and sell it, doubtless
its actual value will then be ascer.

OF the first water, as all tests here
tofore applied indicate, it will

Names of Paper.

Printers are sometimes asked
why various kinds OF paper obtain.
ed the peculiar names they bear.
Here is the reason: In ancient
times, when comparatively few
people could read, pictures of cv-
cry kind were much in use where
writing would now be employed.
Every shop, for instance, had its
sign, as well as every public house;
and those signs, were not then, as
they often are now, only painted
npon q board, but were invariably
actual models of the thing which
the sign expressed--as We still oc.
casionally see some such sign as a
beehive, a tea canister, or a doll,
and the Ike. For the same rca.
son, printers employ some device,
which they put upon the title page
and at the end of their books
And papcrmakers also introduced
marks by way of distinguishing
the paper of their manufacture
from that OF others !; which marks
becoming common, naturally gave
their names to different sorts of
paper. A favorite paper mark
between 1910 and 1860 was q lug
or pot, and would appear to have
originated the term :" pot paper"
The foolscap was a later device.
arH does not appear TO have been
nearly of such long continuance as
the former. 1t has given place to
the figure of Britannia, or that of
a lion rampant supporting The cap
OF liberty on a pole. The name,
however; has continued, and we
still denominate paper of partic-
ular size by the title of L" foolscar. 4"
" Post " paper seems to have de-.
rived its namc from the p st horn,
Which ut one time was its distin

A Beautiful Demon.

In going through the parish pris
on a few days since, the attention
OF the reporter was attracted to a
young girl, apparently not more
than fifteen years of age. She had
fair nut brown hair, and a com.
plexion fresh and white as milk.
The mild blue eyes were singular.
ly soft and intelligent, and her
whole appearance indicated the
free, Joyous characteristics of youth
and happiness. Yet this anliable
looking creature, this fair, delicate
Minerva, of slender form and in.
Jennous face, is said to be devil
incarnate. She was not q prison.

and when :he reporter saw her
she was conversing with noted
burglar indeed she says she is q
cousin of Pete Mondays, and goos
under the sobriqnet OF Lily. She
is almost as fair and delicate as one.
Her career is a remarkable SO.
ries of adventures and hair. r.breadth
escapes. About a year ago she
lived in San Antonio, Texas, and
for some real or fancicd miscon-
duct received a severe castigation
at the hands of the man with
whom she was living.
Burning with resentment, and
conscious of her inability to cope
with him in physical strength, she
waited until the next night, when
he was asleep and then locking the
doors of the room and closing eve.
ry avenue of escape, she prepared
for a work of horror almost impos.
sible to conceive. On one pre-
text or another she sent all the in.
mates of the house away, and pro-
curing paper and other infamma-
bic material, built q funeral pyre
around the bed of the sleeping
man. This done, she set fire to it,
and locking the door behind her fed
from the house. The man woke up
when the house was full of flames,
and in escaping from the room
was literally roasted. One side of
his body was burned almost to n
cinder. He has never recovered

Regular bodily exercise on the con-

invigorates the power Of digestion,
canses sound and refreshing sleep,
freshness Of complexion, and
cheertulness of spirit; it wards off
disease, and tends to preserve the
vigor of both mind and BODY to ad

season, active exercise in the open
air preserves the warmth Of the
body and renders it less susccpti
BILE to the influence of cold, and
less dependent for.its comfort on
artificial heat. The perioda of the
day best adapted to exercise are
early in the morning and towards
the close of the day. Walking is
the most beneficial and most natu.
