DEAR SIR: write this to you to let you
know what the effect of your Rem edies was
on me, 1 had spasmodic trouble in stomach,
with canker, dyspeptic, exceedingly prOstrat-
ed, great want of vitality, &c. The first few
days commenced taking your Remedies, I
felt well stirred up, and was inclined to give
up the use of the medicines; but my folks in
sisted that should keep on. did so, with
the happiest of results. 1 can eat ANYTHING
without distress. 1 am strong and healthy;
all of my difficulties have been thoroughly re-
moved. 1 cannot speak too highly of your
treatment. Though was some what preiu-
diced at first, am now firm advocate of DR.,
Libbey's treatment. How strange it is that
people will not accept the truth at once and
be benefited by it. Many would rather die
scientifically than be cured by DIR. Libbey.
For my part, prefer to live.

No poison claims higher antiquity or
a greater historical interest than hem
lock. To the physician there is none
that surpasses it in physiological inter
est. The bare mention Of the plant
carries one back to the days of the
Grecian Republic, and recalls the un-
dying names Of Socrates, Theramenes
and Phocion-men. who submitted to
the baleful influence Of hemlock rather
than betray the liberty of their country.
II we would learn the effects Of the Athe-
nian State poison, We may have Plato for
our teacher, and sor q subject him of
whom Cicero justly said that he was
the first who called down philosophy
from heaven to earth, aud introduced
her into the public walks and domestic
retirements Of men, that she might
instruct them concerning life and
manners" Socrates, says Plato,
received the fatal cup without
change of countenanoe or the
least perturbation, and then, Offering up
a prayer to the gods that they would
grant him prosperous journey into the
invisible world, drained it with perfect
composure. His friends around him
burst into tears. Socrates alone re-
mained unmoved. He upbraided their
pusillanimity, and entreated them to
exercise manly constancy worthy Of
the friends Of virtue. His executioner
directed him TO walk about until he
should feel his legs becoming heavy:
be did so until the chilling operation OF
the hemlock compelled him to lie down.
then il seized upon the more vital parta
The executioner approaching him, said
TO his friends that when the effects
Of the poison should reach the
heart, Socrates would depart. Then,
him, he found the
lower part Of the body Fas cold. At
this time Socrates spoke these his last

words to his friend Critic: "Crito, we owe
Esculapius a cock; pay the debt, and
do not forget il" 1t shall be done"
replied Critic; but consider whether
you have anything else to say" Socrates
answered not, but in short Tins was
convulsed. The man then uncovered
him. His eyes we're fixed; and when
Critic observed this, he closed his eyelids
and his mouth. In this account we
have ample proof Of the action Of hem
lock, The legs grow heavy, and the
chilling effects creep on. The victim,
no longer able TO stand, lies down; at
last the respiration ceases, accompanied,
as is usual in such cases, by slight con-
vulsive tremor, the mind remaining clear
and tranquil to the last.

Felt skirts, to be worn as Balmorals,
are improved in shape and color. They
are no longer narrow and halfshaped,
as if moulded over form, but are made
the proper width and shape by seam
down each side and a drawing string in
the waistband. They are prettily colored
in mottled blue, lavender, or grey, by a
new process that leaves the wrong side
pure white. Instead Of having coarse,
showy borders appliqued or stamped
upon them, they are simply bound with
braid, or else trimmed with bands or
plaitings of velvet.

A curious calculation has been made
by an eccentric individual, well known
in Paris for his peculiar antipathy to the
fly. He collected 5000 flies in a room
measuring seventy cubic feet. On the
floor he spread pounded loaf of sugar.
At the end of four days he went to in
vestigate the result Of his experiment.
There remained teaspoonful of sugar.
This statistician, therefore, calculates
that sugar being at the rate of thirteen
cents pound, fly costs the country
twenty cents from its birth to its demise,
that is if fed on loaf sugar.

The Ola Dominion"

The term "Old Dominion - as applied
to Virginia, is said to have originated
from the following facts: During the
protectorate of Cromwell the, colony OF
Virginia refused to acknowledge his au-
thority, and sent TO Flanders for Charles
III. to come and reign over them,
Charles accepted, and was about to en-
bark when he was recalled to the throne
of England After his accession, as a
reward to Virginia for her loyalty, he
allowed that colony to quarter the arms
of England, IrelaHd and Scotland with
its own, showing her to be member Of
the "0ld Dominion" !" The historical
facts on which this statement is based
seem well founded, and such is said to
be the origin of the term as applied orig.
inally to the colony and now to the State.
