A PHYSICIAN WHO HEALED HIMSELF.

A PHYSICIAN WHO HEALED HIMSELF. If railroad director were lashed to every locomotive, there would be fewer railroad accidents, and if docotrs had to take their own physic before admin istering it to their patients, fewer peo- pie would be poisoned. Dr. Joseph Walker, of California, took this course when he first compounded the famous Vinegar Bitters, which now rank as an estimable household remedy in all parts of the United States. He healed himself with this specific before he offered it to the world. He introduced it with a simple statement of the manner in which he had discovered it's vegetable ingredi- ents and been cured, while wandering, sick and poor, among the California tribes. He stated what the preparation had done for himself, and few suffer- CTS from dyspepsia, biliousness, rheu- matism, lung diseases, and many other prevalent disorders, believed him, tried the new restorative, and were more than satisfied with the results. In this way the sale of the Vinegar Bitters began, and we mention the fact as an evidence that in this age of intelligence and inquiry, nothing that is really valuable to mankind can prove pecuniary fail ure-even though it may lack the help of capital, and have to fight it's way again t powerful opposing interests. Within two or three months after its introduction, the article became self supporting, and it now yields magnifi- cent annual revenue.-Con1.

Curious Will Case.

The Troy 7Sn1gs relates the following concerning well-known citizen of that place, who in 1945 married an estimable lady there
 ''F For while they lived happily to gether, but on account of family dis sensions in 1848 they signed an agree ment that they would live apart. The fruit of their union was daughter. who remained with the mother. Some time after the husband, presuming he had been legally divorced, married again. and shortly thereafter his wife followed his example. In time the gentleman's second wife died, leaving him a son, and few years ago he again married. The first and third wives are still liv- ing, but few days ago the gentleman died, leaving the bulk of his property. amounting to $35, ,O00, to his last wife and family, consisting of two children. Since the death of the gentleman it has transpired that, not having been di- vorced from his first wife, he committed bigamy in marrying again. The first wife will now bring an action, through her counsel, to break the will, which has not yet keen presented for pro- bate. She claims that when the will was made her husband was not in his sound mind, and that undue influence was exerted over him. She will claim dover in all real estate transactions, and has engaged counsel to prosecute her claim in behalf of herself and daughter, the latter being also married. All the persons are of the greatest re- spectability, and the case is very hard one for all concerned"

Bleeding at the Nose,

This is commonly harmless affec- ton, although individuals have repeat edly been known to have died from it. In childhood and early youth it is idio- pathic, dependent upon active conges- tion. In old age it is symptomatic, and the result of passive congestion. When habltual, it's suspension betokens dis ease or danger. Various means are adopted for it's control-raising both arms over the head and holding them for time, is usually successful. The best remedy, when it can be obtained. IS bunch of common tansy held to the nose, and the aroma snuffed up into the nostrils. How it acts we do not know. but we are certain it stops the nose bleed.

soon have his attention arrest
ed by an improved mower
sweeping over the meadow
under the exclusive manage
ment of a youth of, say, six
teen; and accomplishing more
in a day than could in that
time be wormed out of a dozen
freedmen with their scythes.
A little later and he would
see the younger brother of the
youth driving through the
field on a tedder," turning the
hay; and then in due time
would come a still smaller boy
with a horse rake, followed by
a trio of little fellows having
all sorts of fun as they, with
a hay fork, stored away the
crop in the hay loft.
In everything done on the
farm in New England this
same plan is resorted to. If
the soil must be prepared, in
stead of setting a dozen freed
men at it with mules and
plows, to sweat through a
week, as we would do, out
comes a machine managed by
a boy or two, and in an incred-
IDLY short space of time the
job is done, and well done. A
lot of seed is to be sown that
would give our hands a long,
tedious task, but thena strip
ling with a seed sower puts it
down exactly right and in very
short order. And when the
crop is ready to be hoed, in
stead of charging it with a
black army to play for pay, a
boy harnesses his nag to a
horse hoe, takes his seat as in
a sulky, and-rides about over
the field hoeing several rows
at a time. In short New Eng

back filled with establishment
at what he has seen, and per
fectly discouraged with his
own section of country. There
he saw little villages sticking
in the midst Of barren and
uninhabitable mountains, with
no surroundings to support
them, evincing a spirit of life
and prosperity unknown to
even our large townsville re-
cognized trade-centres of our
bestagriculturalr egions. And
in the country he saw little
farms producing like tirst-class
English gardens, though on
soil originally TOO poor to have
grown bear grass, and in situa-
tons that a Southern man
never would have thought
capable of being converted into
a goat pasture. The people
all, as a general thing, seemed
contented and prosperous; and
if he had enquired into their
circumstances he would have
found, strange as it may ap-
pear, everybody in these little
villages well off and making
money, and the little farms,
with their stone piles here and
there, and their stones con-
stantly working to the surface
to be carried off into other
piles, and their annual calls for
fertilizers to the extent of one
hundred and fifty dollars per
acre, actually clearing their
owners from two to three hun
dred dollars on every acre en-

discouraged when he looks
from this picture upon our

poverty and general dilapida-

they are really, in very many
instances, not paying the ex-

One would naturally con-
ciude that there must be some
secret connected with all this,
and so there is. At the village

there, thousands of miles

be grown, it would take the
