CHICAGO LIVE STOCK MARKET,

there WAS some improvement In both the local

croasod tirrnness was noticeable, former ratoa

time in many weeks tho facilitoB for moving tho
stock out wero ample, and to this fact alone
must DO attributed Whatever Of improvement
for ehipping grades. It Is by no means certain
that from this time forward tho supply Of
stock cars will provo sufficient to meet
tho requirements Of shippers, but
fow moro days Of Tho presont gplen.

tial to IN active trade howovor, that We hayo a
better class Of stock than ia now boipg Bont ia
this market. Tho proportion Of thin and half
fattoncd stock is altogether too prominent, and
md unsettled condition Of tho tnarket. Thara
were comparatively few Eastorn buyers in at
tendance to-day, but. the wants Of those few
were sufficient to absorb NIL really desirable
offerings and tho boBt drovos woro takon at about
IN no advance On the prices current on the closing
days OF Iaat week. There wns not bunch OF extra
steers on sale, and tho number that would

The Curiosity OF q Fly.


Talk about the curiosity of women! We
will back fly against any woman. just
watch him as he gayly traverses a bald
mans Uranium, halts on the eyelid, and,
taking a cursory glance around him,
waltzes over to the end of the nose, peeps
up one nostril, and having satisfied his GU
riosity there. curvettes over the upper lip
and takes glance up the other. With a
satisfactory smile at having seen all there
is to be seen there, he makes Decline to
the chin, stopping moment to explore
the cavity formed by the closed lips. Ar
irving at the chin, he takes notion to
creep down under the shirt-collar, but,
suddenly hesitating, he turns around as If
he had forgotten something, and proceeds
to an exploration of the ears. This con-
cluded, he carries out his original inten-
ton, and disappears between the neck and
shirt-collar, emerging, after the lapse OF
some minutes, with an air seeming to say
he had performed his duty. What matters
the frantic attempts to catch him, the en-
ragged gestures and the prOfane language
They disturb his equanimity not moment.
Driven from one spot, he alights on an
other; he finds he has got duty to per-
form, and he does it.-Loprsnes American.

OLD HUMBUGs DIsCARDED.-Thank
heaven, the old-school practice is passing
away. Ipecac, aloes, calomel: bl STEERING:
the lancet, and (worse than all, indicated
rum, have given place to new remedy.
which bids fair to become the universal
medicine of mankind. VINEGAR BITTERs
is that remedy. tits destined to take pre-
cedence of all other curatives now be-
fore the world. The pbsmacop9ia and
conspectus of theregular Faculty contain
nothing that will compare with it. Every
day hundreds of the sick are emancipating
themselves from systems Of treatment
which entail expense and do no good, and
are fly ing to this cheap and absolutely
certain means OF relief. Dyspepsia. rheu-
matism, liver complaint. periodic fevers,
sick headache, kidney diseases, consripa-
ton, nervous affections, and in short all
maladies. acute or chronic, which do not
involve the irrsparable injury Of some
vital organ. are cured by this pure iaateo-
holic vegetable restorative.

Want of Vitality.

II deficiency OF vital energy is not disease in
itself It is condition which lays the system open
to the attacks OF all conceivable maladies. Night
and day we are surrounded more or less by delete
rious influences. No atmosphere is entirely pure,
no water utterly free frem injurious particles;
while in many localities both are positively un-
wholesome. What defence has the weak. lapguid
system, In which the vital principle is deficient
or dormant, against any of the morbid influences
which produce epidemic and other diseases? None
whatever. There Is no safety in artificial REIN
forcement. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have, be-
yond all question. WALKING effect. II the nerv-
Gus forces OF the body have been reckle.sy ex-
pended in exhausting physical or mental labor. or
dissipated In the indulgences of "fast' life.
this powerful vegetable tonic aud corrective will
restore them II the defective vitality is consti-
tutional evil 1t can be remedied to great extent
by this wonderful invigorant. At season of the
year when the air is more less impregna ted with
the seeds OF periodic fevers 1t is especially desir-
able that the digestion should be perfect the habit
of body regular, the liver active, the blood pure
and the nerves firm. These conditions are the best
protection against all disorders, and they are con-
dtions which the Bitters are better adapted than
any other medicinal agent to promote aud secure.
See 10 1t. however. that no imitation counterfeit
is substituted for the genuine article, and lett
VINO value health and have an antipathy to poison
beware OF the local bitters made from condemned
drugs and vilely aduterated alcohol, which have
sprung up like unwholesome fungi all over the
country.
