PRoGREss OF THE REvoLUToN-A
new light dawned upon the world with the
introduction of Plantation Bitters twelve
years ago Drastic purgation went out
restoration and renovation came in. The
eyes of the people were opened to the
great fact that the way to cure disease is
to strengthen its victims, not to place them
at its mercy by depriving them of the little
strength they have 1t soon became evi-
dent that as a means of intusing vitality
into the feeble system, regulating the Sc
cretions, curing indigestion, and reforming
bilious habit of body, no medical prepar-
alton then known was at all comparable
to the new restorative. Since then hum
dreds Of attempts have been made to rival
the Bitters They have all failed and the
Grand Revolution in Medical Treatment,
which was commenced in 1860, is still in
progress. Nothing can stop it, for it is
founded on the principle, now universally
acknowledged, that physical vig0r is the
most formidable antagonist of all human
ailments, and experience has shown that
Plantation Bitters, is peerless invigorant
as well as the best possible safeguard
against epidemic diseases.

ward
3d-Listen to the response of the whis
tie, and if the answer is incorrect, repeat
the call of the ward, but if the right num-
Der Of whistles are given, no further effort
is nescesary.
This will enable the fremen to proceed
directly to the place where the fire is in
stead of depending on hearsay reports OIL
waiting until the fire itself shows them the
way.
/ In giving a fire alarm, open only one
hydrant, 50 that no misapprehension may
/ be entertained at the Water Works, as t
the locality of the fire
