Medical BlulilcIs,

From the period when surgeons applied their
saIvcs to weapons instead of wounds to the present
wide-awake age, the medical profession has often
unwi,tngy taken side with Disease in its conflicts
with the human system. Even yet, in spite OF the
teachings ofcenturies OF experience, physi-
clans believe in depicting their patients already
seriously exhausted by sickness with powerful
evacuants emetics, salivants cauiharidal plastels
or the lancet. But, providentially, public intelli
gencc is ahead OF these medical fossils, who
belong, OF right, to the era of the Crusades
That powerful ally OF nature in its warfare with the
causes of sickness, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
has opened the eyes OF the masses to the para
mount Importance of increasing the vital strength
of the body when menacediby disease. They I'M.
derstand that when the atmospheric conditions are
adverse to health-as, for example in damp, chill
Is severely cold weather-it is wise to reinforce
the system with a wholesome tonic and stlmulant
and thus enable it to combat and repel the depress
ing influence of an Indictment temperature If the
constitutional and animal powers We're always
thus recruited in the presence of danger the NOR
tally from consumption, bronchitis, chronic rheu
matlsm, &c, would be much less than II now il
The causes which produce groups colds, quinsey
diptheria and catalTh seldom effect strong and
active vital SYSTEM and of all vitalizng prepare
tons, Hostetters Bitters has proved the most HI
cien Ii is not claimed that this standard tonic Is
a specific for lung and throat maladies, as it is foi
dyspepsia, liver complaint and intcrmi:tents, but
is unhesitatingly asserted that 1t is the best known
safeguard against all the Atmospheric elements o
disease.

dam is now in process Of construction, about
forty rods west of the stone dam, that is cal
culated to flow about five acres. 1t is ofcrib
work, filled in solidly with stone, similar to
the dam across the Kennebec in this city
The pond formed by the building of this dam,
is intended as a reservoir and settling pond,
and feeder to the other dam. The dam is
about Is feet high and 60 feet in length.
Undoubtedly this point is to be the outlet of
an inexhaustible supply Of pure spring water
enough to meet the wants in that direction
of all our citizens who can make the water
available at their places of residence or bust
ness. 1t is the intention of the company,
early the next season, to begin the laying of
the main pipes from the reservoir. The one
hundred stores on Water street will first have
the privilege of taking the water and GER
tainly when the Kennebec has been so long
their only resource, they should not be slow
in availing themselves of this privilege. The
affairs of the company are directed by men of
brains, money and enterprise, and they 'tmean
business.

MASKS AND FAcEs.-Ladies who mask their
faces and necks with enamels endanger their
health TO no purpose. The plaster work de-
ceives nobody. There is but one article
known which will restore bleRished COM
plexion or create external brilliancy and
bloom where they have never heretofore ex-
listed, and that article is HAGAN's MAGNoLIA
BALM. 1t performs this toilet miracle by in
fusing vitality into the skin. The floral and
herbal juices of which it is composed gently
stimulate the circulation in the minute blood
vessels, and brace the networ of nerves
through which they pass. Thus quckened
and strengthened the external covering soon
acquires fresh and healthful hue. and every
trace of sallowness disappears. The palest
cheeks derive from the identifying baptism of
this delightful cosmetic warmer hue, and
the arms, hands and neck, blonde lustre
which the charlatans. who profess to make
ladies beautiful forever" with their pois on

Father Detail, OF Fifth Avenue Fire

The alarm was first given BY one Of the L.
male servants, who shrieked fire through the
hall ways, awakening the guests, Of whom
were about five hundred in the hotel Many
of the guests went to the Office, and eEquired
as to the excitement, but were Informed by
the clerk that there was only a little fire in
the laundry. This attempt to keep the fire
quiet, so 20 avoid panic helped to bring
about the terrible result. When the guests
became cognizant of their danger, scenes of
confusion ensued, the people moving about in
apparent distraction baggage filled the hall
ways. The smoke was sufIocating, and
water drenched the floors. 1t was nearly
twelve o'clock before any one gave an alarm.

inside, caused the fire engines to come to the
spot, but the fire by this time made consider
able Roadway. Ladies were in a wild state of
excitement. The carpets were still covered
with water. a poor servant girl was found
on the third floor writing in agonies of pain,
her body trightfuily burned. The shrieks of
the servants in the upper stories were heart
rendng, as the tiremen were making their
way to rescue them. Large crowds had in
the meantime gathered in the streets. The
excitement outside was kept up till about two
o'clock when the fire was about extinguished.
The Herald says the loss by fire of the
Fifth Avenue Hotel is $4,000.
