OzoKERrrE CANDLES. the exhibit
ton of chemical and allied products at
Dublin, held during the past summer,
the various forms of candles were prom
inent articles, and especially those made
of ozokerite. This is fossil, first men
toned by Meyer, who discovered it in
Moldavia, in connection with the mines
of rock salt. The material used by
Messrs. Field & Co., who exhibited the
candles in question, is obtained by them
from the Carpathian Mountains, and the
candles are said to be of great beauty.
They have very high melting point,
and do not soften nor bend at an ordi-
nary temperature. They also exceed
any other candles in their Illuminating
power. Thus 754 grains of ozokerite
gave as much light as 1000 of the best
spermaceti, 1913 to 791 of parafine, and
1,150 of wax candles.

How TO ENJOY WINTER.-The Human
Organism is regulated furnace The
blood may be compared to the fuel, and
the more stable tissues formed from it to
the iron stove containing the fuel. Just
in proportion to the energy and celerity
with which life is carried on, this combus
ton proceeds; and fresh fuel, that is, fresh
blood, is required But, in order to obtain
this, there must be both food, and also di-
gestive energy. When there is failure
in this digestive energy, stimulants fre-
quently are had recourse to- but their eff
feet is transient, and if used too long and
exclusively, they tend to derange the di:
gestive functions But let DIR. Gottlieh
Fischs Bitters be used in conjunction with
food. and its tonic qualities will rapidly
strengthen the digestive organs! And
when an abundance of wholesome food is
once duly digested, it will bring about 6
fullneSs ofyitality hitherto utterly unknown
There will be no more desire for alcoholic
stimulantsl

CAN IT BE TRUE Within the last few
months considerable number of persons
have called upon DR.. WALKER, the pro-
prietor of the popular medicine known as
VINEGAR BTTERS, and assured him that,
in their belief, his preparations are an in
fallible antidote for rum and tobacco. The
minute details which have been furnished
him forbid him to doubt the accuracy of
the statements. This new claim of a great
remedy to the confidence of the public will
give a vast and well ldeserved impulse to
its popularity. Heretofore the BuTERs
have been recognized as pure vegetable
tonic and corrective, devoid of alcohol, and
thoroughly adapted TO the cure of the
stomach and bowel complaints, nervous
disorders, bilious affections, muscular dis
eases, and, indeed. majority of the all
ments within the reach of medicine but
if it will also cure the craving for liquor
and tobacco, philosophers, statesmen and
theologians ought TO unite their voices il
its praise Can the good things be true
1t is easy to test the question.
