Prop the Falling .

1t is great blessing to have by nature strong
constitution, but not more than one-half OF the
inhabitants of the civilized world are thus pro-
vided. Many constitutions are feeble to begin
WITH many others, originally vigorous, are crippled
by over-exertion, dissipation, unhealthy surround
ings, grief priyation or some other portentous
cause, before the prime of life is attained But is
this an evil without remedy or palliative? No!
constitutions can be replaced Hundreds of thou
sands of instances might be adduced in which con-
stitutional decay has been arrested by the continu-
Gus use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as an in
vigorant. 1t is constitutional strength that enables
one man to recover from a disease which would be
mortal to another destitute of this element of re-
sistance Whenever malady of any kind obtains
a foothold in any part of the human body, and be-
chronic fixture, it is proof positive that the
constitution has been mastered by the disease, and
urgently requires help. In such case Hostetters
Bitters should be taken at least three times day,
until the system is recruited. Then the morbid
principle which generated and feeds the complaint
will have to succumb to the influence of animal
vigor aided by the toning, regulating, purifying
operation of the Bitters upon the organ or organs
in which the aiment is located. There is nothing
like this mighty tonic to prop the falling"

CALIFORNIA lizards are said to be becom-
ing alarmingly abundant of late, some of
them being very deadly. A new speci-
men, underlined as yet, has been sent to the
Smithsonian Institute for inspection. 1t is
straw-colored, heavily built, in length
about ten inches, head scarlet and black,
tail very short and thick, yellow ribbed
with black. Good specimens weigh a
a serpent, and the fangs are very long and
thick. They are courageous fellows, never
running from man, and when suddenly
come upon will band themselves in a semi
circle, give vent to loud, angry hiss, and
bid defiance to the intruder Should a
person approach near enough, they will
give an active spring upward and strike
the fangs sharply and deeply. They are
the very Modocs among reptiles.
LADIES travelling through Canada by
rail are often greatly annoyed by having
their luggage unnecessarily searched; but
one of the officials recently got his deserts.
1t happened that Yankee school teacher
on her way from Kansas to Vermont
passed through the Dominion, with a
trunk packed TO pursuing Win HotnInS
contraband. When the officer demanded
her key she begged him not to open it, as
surfing him that it came through from
Kansas, contained simply clothes and
books, and was so full that it would be
very troublesome to repack it. But he
sternly demanded the key, and malicious
ly pulled everything out to the very bot
tom; then-finding her assertions true
he returned the key and advised her to
'hurry up and get the traps back" as the
train would soon move. "What is that to
me-" said the quick-witted woman, II

Grand Trunk Railway responsible for its
safe delivery. will not take the key, and
you may do as you please with the trunk"
Report says that official was very weary
and red in the face, and rather profane ere
he finished packing that trunk.

Sawdust Swindlers Come to Grief.

THE sawdustswindlers are at last COM
ing to grief. The other day, in New
York, two of them were sentenced to i'm
prisonment for one year and to pay fine
of $1,000. Four barrels of confidential
circulars were captured with these men,
and an immense number of envelopes,
addressed, ready for mailing, were also
seized. These circulars state that coun-
terfelt money, which it is impossible to
detect, will be sent to any person for
Wardlng certain specified amounts. For
instance, says the circular: ''The price of
my money is 500 for 81 900, one-half cash
and the other half as soon as received y

Tur 1.-TWO ExrRrMrs-Two classes nf

THE Two EXTRENES.-TwO classes of
medical thinkers attempt to cure disease
by opposite modes of treatment. One class
forces the system into preternatural activ-
ity; the other depresses and weakens it,
Both are wrong. To infiame the blood of
an invalid with medicated alcohol is as
dangerous as to apply undue steam pres
sure to weak boiler; and to PROSTATE the
physical energy, which is the natural OPP
ponent of disease, by depicting treatment,
is an act of almost equal temerity. There
is a medium between these two extremes,
and DIR. JOSEPH WALKER, to whom the
world owes the famous CALIFORNIA Vim
EGAR BITTERs, has been fortunate enough
to strike it. He has produced from SIM
pie vegetable elements without the admix-
ture of any distilled or fermented fluid, a
specific comprising the important proper
ties of wholesome tonic, gentle evac-
uant, purifier of the secretions, a
pulmonic, sedative, and a powerful anti
bilious agent Never before were these
six sanative qualities comprehended in
one medicine, and never before did one
medicine cure so many different diseases.
Dyspepsia, liver-complaint, diseases OF the
kidneys, rheumatism, intermittent fever,
disorders of the bowels, govt, nervous at
fections, and maladies proceeding from
impurity of the blood, are only few of
the bodily ills for which VINEGAR BIT
TIERS is considered an unfa1llng remedy.

Exercise for Horses.

DR.. Withers, an eminent veterinarian OF
Chicago, says that exercise, when horse
is convalescing, is medicine; that without
it disease will be perpetuated and become
complicated. Therefore he believes the
only question to be, how much exercise do
our horses demand? The answer to this,
of course, will be that the amount of eXer-
else must be regulated according to the
condition of the horse. Some arc in such a
state that they demand only walk up and
down the barn, while others are actually
made risky by drive of two miles and
more. Now, says Withers:
eff owners of horses will use judgment
in the amount of exercise given to the
animals, the effect will be beneficial
rather than hurtful The result of long
experience, and the present condition OF
the horses, sustain this theory. Dropsy
has afflicted more animals which have
been withheld from labor than those which
have been reharnessed and put into their
old tracks. 1t is a disease which follows
in the wake of every disease which tends
to thin their blood, and can easily be
avoided by judicious treatment. Horses
must not be exercised too much-nelther
too little, so that if dropsy shall prevail to
any considerable extent, it will either be
the natural result of the epizootic in those
horses which have weak constitutions, or
the result of defective judgment or abuse,
in giving convalescing animals too much
exercise"
1t is always. desirable to know the
name of a variety of tree or vlne-labels
will decay or get broken down-but If a
map or book record is made of the posi-
ton of every tree of value, its name, when
planted, and from whom received, it
would give great satisfaction to the owner,
and be one of the checks against too
many of the present items of new produc-
tions by ignorant growers, under an inn
preston Of its being a Seeding because
they happen not to know the variety and
have lost all remembrance of its period of
procurance or planting.-Ohto Farmer.

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.

The Geological Survey Of the State
has progressed satisfactorily during
the past year. The first volume Of
the final report is now in the hands of
the printer, and will be ready for dis
tribution at the present session of the
General Assembly. Material for an
other volume is now nearly ready, and
it is hoped provision will be made for
its early publication. To perfect the
work Of the survey according to the
original design, and in harmony with
what has already been completed, will
require one year more, and 1t is recon-
mended that the time of the geoIogi-
cal corps be extended accordingly, and
that such appropriation be made there
fore as may be necessary.
Five maps upon a somewhat ex-
tended scale, have been prepared by
Prof. Andrews, representing the coal
in the the district assigned 70 him.
The funds heretofore appropriated
for engraving and printing were not
sufficient to warrant the Board Of
Control in ordering as many copies OF
these maps as there will be volumes
in the edition to be published. II il
should be considered desirable that an
equal number should be printed, an
additional appropriation will be re-
quired.
