Why Endure What is Curablc :

"What can't be cured must be en-
dared," says the proverb; but ind'ges-
ton can be cured, aud therefore 1t Is
the merest stupidity to endure it.
Dyspeptics have certainly a right to
continue dyspeptics to the end OF their
days If they choose, but as it IS not
supposed that any rational being pre-
fers physical torment to ease and
health, the probability is thatif all SUI
ferers from indigestion were convinced
that an absolute, infallible remedy tor
their complaint existed, they would
with one accord resort to it. We most
emphatically declare that such a reme'
DIV does exist, and that its name is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. The record
of it's success extends over q period OF
more than twenty years, and it IS fear
lessly alleged that during the whole OF
that time it has never failed to afford
permanent relief in any disorder or de-
rangement of the stomach that was not
organic, malignant and jncnrab'e'-
The testimonials that 60 to establish
this important fact can he counted by
the thousand. Stomach complaints
that had been aggravated by. tota
disregard of all dietary rules, and in
, tepsi6ed and rendered chronic by me-
diciual treatment or drastic purgation
have in hundreds of instances beer
5 cured within three months By the sys
. tematic use of this celebrated stomach
+ ic and Alternative. 1t should be remem
, bered that weakness of the digestlv
organs involves many other ailments
Biliousness, headache, nervous deb'!'
s ty, spasms, palpitation of the heart
rusl, of blood to the head, nausea, yer
tigo, and sleeplessness are among 1t
concomitants and results; and for a
n these the great vegetable tonic is
h specific. 1t acts first upon the stom
q ach, and through the stomach upon til
: secretory and nervous systems and tn
70 bowels, its general effect being alway
genial aud benefcent.

Il John Smith, of New York, in a
letter to his blessed Evening Post,
breaches startling theory, t" the ef-
feet that the names of mankind are
gradually lessening in number and va
riety, and the people becoming con-
solidated under limited number of
appellaticns. One half of the propa-
eating population-namely, women
are perpetua1ly losing their names Ivy
marriage, while new names are never
created. Names also frequently be-
come extinct by death. Therefore the
number of distinctive cognomens must
continue to diminish until all mankind

that body, represent nineteen tween.
tieths of the people and tax payers OF
the Corporation, and acted WE'LL con.
scientiously and with the best ana

action meets the full and cordial ap-
probation of that people. They did 1t
in aid of a good and pure cause and
that peoples sacred and down 'trodden
rights, and have no excuses to make or
apologies to offer in behalf of their ac-

with us are denied those rights, and We
are in honor and duty bound to give

only did their duty, and in the name o
the sovereign people of tho Parish ant
Town, sent their small mite as feebl
and small contribution to our best in
