GUYOT'S TAR
CONCENTRATED PROOF LIQUEUR

Mr Guyot has succeeded in depriving tar
of its insupportable soufness and bitterness,
and in rendering it very soluble. Profting
by this happy discovery. he prepares con.
centrated liqueur of tar, which in small
volume contains large. proportion OF the
active principle.
Guyot's tar possesses all the advantages OF
| ordinary tar-water without any of its draw
backs A glass of excellent tag-water without
any disagreeable taste may be instantaneously
obtained by pouring teaspoonful into
glass of water,
ANY one can tlus prepare his glass Of tar
water at the moment he requires 1t, thus
economizing time, facilitating carriage and
obviating the disagreeable necessity OF hand
ling tar.
Guyots tar replaces advantageously Sc
yeral more or less inactive ptiSans in the
treatment of colds, bronchitis, coughs, and
catarrhs.
Guyot's tar is employed with the greatest
success in the following diseases -
| AS A DRACGIIT. = A teasponfal in glass
ofwater, or t,Uo tablespoonfuls in bottle.
BRONCHITIS
caTARRH OF THE BLADDER
COLDS
OBSTINATE COUGHS
IRRITATION OF THE CHEST
PULMONARY CONSUMPTION
| WHooPINs COUGH
DISEASES OF THE THROAT
| AS A LOTION. - Pure or diluted Whh a
little pater.
AFFECTIONS OF THE SKIN
lTCHINGS
DISEASES OF THE SCALP
Guyofs tar has been tried with the
greatest success in the principal hospitals of
France, Belgium, and Spain. Experience has
proved it 10 be the most hygienie drink in
time Of epidemics.

The Age or NIAGARA.

An element in the problem of Mag
ara's age is the flow Of water. To con
struct scale from the present and ap
ply it to the past, we should know that
the amount Of water in past ages ha:
been essentially the same as now.
About $500 cubic miles Of water
half the fresh water on the globc-are
in the upper lakes, and $4,000. O00
cubic feet plunge over niagara Falls
every minute; all the waters Of the
lakes making the circuit of the Falls,
the St. Lawrence, tho ocean, vapor rain,
and lakes again, in 1872 years. Through
the Illinois Canal about 5000 cubic
feet of water arc taken every minute
from Lake Michig gan to the Illinois riv-
er; through the Welland Canal $4,000
cubic feet flow every minute from Lake
Erie into Lake Ontario, and through
the Erie Canal 10000 cubic feet pass
every minute from tho same lake into
the Hudson. Thus $1,000 cubic feet
Of water, which nature would give to
Niagara. are diverted every minute by
artificial channels, some into tn" Mcxi
can Gulf and some into the Bay OF
Now York. Add this to $4,000, 900,
it is as drop in the bucket and would
make no appreciable difference in the
character Of the falls or their rate oil
