TO TOBACCO PLANTERS,

FOURTEEN years experience in growing
Il Tobacco, by the planters of Maryland and
Virginia, has convinced the most skeptical that
Excelsior" has no equal in growing or matur-
ing that crop. 1t is now their unanimous opin-
ion that, ''from the application of Excelsior
the crop is heavier, of finer quality, cures ear
lier and better, and is not so, liable to suffer
from drought as from Peruvian Guano."
We refer to every planter in Maryland.

CAUTION.-The popularity of Excelsior

Guano has induced INSCRIPTIONS parties in this

to sell their worthless compounds.

The enforcement of the law compell-

alcohol has created quite Il breeze
among the druggists. The law is
compulsory, and whether they sell
alcohol or not they must take out

prominent place in the stores, Just as
liquor sellers are compelled to do IN
Their bar rooms. We saw one drug

The Feet.

OF all parts of the body, there is not
one which ought to be so carefully at
tended to as the feet. Every person
knows from experience that colds, and
many other diseases that proceed from
the same, are attributable to cold feet.
The feet are such distance from the
wheel at the cistern" of the system,
that the circulation of the blood may be
very easily checked in them. You see
all this, and although every person of
common sense should be aware of the
truth of what we have stated, there is
no part of the body so much trifed with
as the feet. The young and would-be
genteel footed cramp their feet into
thin-soled, -pinching boots, in order
to display neat feet, in the fashionable
sense of the term. Now this is very
wrong. In cold weather, boots of good
thick leather, both in soles and uppers,
and large enough to give free circulation
of the blood in the feet, should be worn
by all. They should be water tight, but
not air-tight it Injuries the feet to wear
an alright covering over them. India
rubber shoes or boots should not be
worn except in wet and slushy weather,
and then taken off as soon as the ex-
posure to it is over. No part of the
body should be allowed to have a cover
ing which entirely obstructs the passage
Of the carbonic acid gas from the pores
OF the skin outward, and the moderate
passage of the air inward to the skin.
