at this season the vegetable world takes
new lease of life; but TO the sensitive
and delicate members Of the human
family il Is a time Of danger and often Of
great suffering, The moisture which rises
from the earth and hangs suspended over
1t in the form Of morning and evening
mists and togs, holds in solution, go to
speak, the mephitic elements which pro.
duce fever and ague, remittent fevers,
rheumatism, and many painful nervous
disturbances, and which aggravate dys.
pepsia, bilflousness and all minor ailec-
tons Of the stomach and the bowels.
This, therefore, Is critical period Of, the
year, o season when the renovating, re-
freshing and purifying operation Of the
mightiest Of all'vegetable tones and al.
teratives, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, is
salvation to the weak, and the best sc.
curity for the continuance of the health
and vigor Of the strong. Now Is the time
not only to protect the system against the
common ailments Of the season, but TO
prevent the disorders incident to warmer
temperature. Let not the exhausting
heats Of the summer months find you un-
prepared to meet them. A course OF
Hostetter's Bitters, commenced now, will
put all the physical energies in fighting
trim, double the capacity Of the internal
organs to repel the causes Of disease, re-
fresh the brain and clear it OF all hypo-
chondriacal cobwebs, and place the whole
physlqne In an attitude Of defence, with
every available point fortified and guarded
and as nearly invulnerable to, tlnwholc.
some influence as It Is possible for the hu.
man structure to be. . eodSw

The Clock of Sans SOuci.

It Is related of Frederick the
Great of Prussia, that IN going
through the reception room of his
palace ut Sans Souci, he encountered
a workman who busted himself to
get on top of ladder TO take down
q clock from the wall, but owing to
the sm oOthness of the marble floor
the ladder could not be kept firm.
"What art thou doing here, mon an1?'
inquir ed the king. Il am a watch
maker" answered the workman,
and l have received orders from the
superintendent of the palace to re-
pair this clock; I have been trying to
take it down, but cannot succeed as
the ladder does not stand firm.
''Ascend the ladder, said the king,
sand I viii hold it while you are at
work" This done, the workman
departed with the click. On the
following morning, the king was in
formed that the clock Of the recep-
ton room had been stolen. No
sooner had his Majesty heard this
when he found to his chagrin, that
instead, as he believed, of assisting
a matchmaker, he had been made
the dupe of thief The king at
once issued an order, saying: "Let
him run; I have been an accomplice
to the theft.

Curious Fact.

It is singular that the name of
God should be spelled with four let
tiers in almost every known Ian
guage. 1t is latin, Deus inSGreek,
Zaus Hebrew, Adon Syrian
Adad Arabian, ALA; Persian, Syra;
Tartarian, Igda, Egyptian, Aumn or
Zeut; East Indian, Esgi or Zeul ;
Japanese, Zain; Turkish. Addi ;
ZcaDdinavian, Odin; WaIlachian,
Senc; Croatian, Eher; EuuriaD,
Chur; Margarian, Eese !; Swedish,
Codd Irish. Dich German, Gott (;
French, Dieu; Spanish, Dios; and
Peruvian, Lian. The name of God
in the Anglo-Saxon conception Of
the Divine Being. He is goodness
itself and the author of all good
ness. Yet the idea of denOting the
Deity by a term equivalent to alb
stract, and absolute perfection,
striking as it may appear, Is per-
haps less remarkable than the fact
that the word man, u]ed to desig-
nate human being, formerly signi-
fed wickedness.
