Dear Sir:-My brother who Is now In his l4th
year, has been subject to Epilepsy or fits from child
hood. The spasms would invariably occur during
the night, and our local physicians here could DO
nothing to help him save prescribing Bromide or
Potassium, which would afford only temporary re
lief He was gradually but surely becoming insane
and in this condition we procured your restorative
stimulant, herbal ointment and pills, and used as
directed. and but a short time elapsed before the
spasms entirely ceased his intellect grew brighter,
and in short was entirely restored to perfect health
You may use this testimonial as you may deem prop
er a. what have said are facts.
Respectfully yours,

Why Aunt Sallie Never Married.

"Now, Aunt Sallie, do please tell us why
you never got married. You remember you
said once that when you were girl, you was
engaged to minister, and promised you
would tell us about it sometime. Now, aunt,
Llease tell US"
"Well, you see when l was about seven
teen years old 1 was living in Utica, in the
State of New York though say it myself.
l was quite good looking girl then, and
had several beaux. The one that took my
fancy was young minister, a very promising
young man, and remarkably pious and steady.
He thought good deal ofme, and kind of
to him, and things went on until we were
engaged. One evening he came to me and
put his arms around me, and kind of hugged
me, when l got excited and some frustrated.
1t was long time ago, and don't know
but what might have hugged back little.
was like any other girl, and pretty soon
pretended to be mad about it. and pushed
him away. though l wasn't mad bit. You
must know that the house where | lived was
on one of the back streets of the town
There were glass doors in the parlor, which
opened on the street These doors to, I step
ned back little from him, and when he
came up close I pushed him harder than l
intended to and don't you think, girls, the
Door fellow lost his balance and fell through
one of the doors into the street"
"Oh, Aunty! Was he killed?
"No. He fell head first, and as he was
going caught him by the legs of his trou-
sers. | held on for minute and tried to
pull him back, but his suspenders gave way,
and the poor young man fell clear out of his
pantaloons into parcel OF ladies' ana gentle
men along the street"
ooh! Aunty! Aunty Lordy"
"There that's right; squall and giggle as
mucb as YOU want to. Girls that can't hear
a little thing like that without tearing around
the room and he-he-ing in such way, don't
know enough to come in when it rains. A
nice time the man who marries one OF you
will have. won't he? Catch me telling you
anything again" .
but, Aunt Sally, what became Of him
Did you ever see him again
mo; the moment he touched the ground
he got up and left that place in terrible
hurry. tell you it was a sight to be re-
membered. How that man did run! He
went out West, and believe he is preach
ing out in Illinois. But he never married
He was very modest, and l suppose he was
so badly frightened that time, that he never
dared trust himself near woman agaln.-
That, girls, is the reason why | never mar
ried. I felt very bad about it for long
time-for he was real good man, and
have often thought to myself that we should
have been very happy ifhis suspenders hadn't
given way
