it is the merest stupidity to endure It, Dyspeptics

end of their days if they choose bat Is sup

sufferers from Indigestion convinced that abb
soue. infalibe remedy for their complaint existed
they would with one accord resort to it. We most
emphaticaly declare that such remedy does exist,
and that its name is Hosetter's Stomach Biters The
record of its success extends over period of more
than twenty years. and it is fearlessly alleged that

afford permanent relief in any disorder derarge-
ment OF the stomach that not organic malignant

this important fact be counted by the thousand.
Stomach complaints that had been aggravated by q
total disregard of all dietary rules and intensified

purgation have in hundreds of instances cured

The storm which ravaged the coast of

On the nights of the Sd and 4th the City

CABLE SCREW WIRE Doors AND SHoEs-A
word of explanation may not be out of place.
The cable wire acts as screw, is strong and
firm, and at the same time is elastic and
comfortable. 1t is much preferable to the
old method OF pegging, and quite as soft
and elastic as sewed work, but much strong
and less liable to rip, and much less ex-
pensive. We have tried the cable screw
shoe, which has proved all that is claimed
for it. The increase in this new method of
manufacturing boots and shoes is very rapid,
and promises to supersede the wood peg and
waxed thread.-Ihe Standard, Chicago.

The Weekly Tribune, now more than thirty
years old, has kept up with the progress of
the age in Improvement and in enterprise. 1t
devotes large share of its columns to Ag-
riculture, as the most essential and general
Of human pursuits. 1t employs the ablest
and most successful cultivators to set forth
in brief, clear essays, their practical views
of the Farmers work It reports public
discussions which eIucidate that work; gath.
ers from every source agricultural news, the
reports of the latest experiments, the stories
of the latest successes and failures and
whatever may tend at once to better Agri-
culture, and to commend it as the first and
most important of progressive Arts, based
on natural science.
There are hundreds of thousands engaged

Tribune shows them how to make the most
of their roods and their hours, both by direc-
ton and example. No Information equal in
