Some time in September last Mr.. Z. l.. Rodgers
applied to the chief engineer for permission to
remove the terrace at the northwest corner OF y
street and New Jersey avenue southeast, In
order to erect building, which request was re-
fused on the ground that it would mar the uni
fOrmity of the improvement on that street. Mr..
Rodgers notwithstanding this refusal, proceeded
to cut away the terrace to suit his own purposes,
and was notified by Superintendent ]. b. Ellis to
desst and replace the portion already removed.
Upon his refusal to notice this caution Mr.. Ellis
procured a warrant, and Mr.. Rodgers was brought
before Judge smell VINO, alIer nearing as
missed the case. The matter was thereupon
taken up by General o. E. BabcOck, who has
notified Mr.. Rodgers that he is violating section
go of the revised code of the Congressional laws
for the District OF Columbia, which provides that
any person removing work done by authority Of the
United States, and failing to replace the same to
the satisfaction of the chief engineer shall be sub
ject to a penalty of SIS for each and every fail
ure and pay the cost for replacing the same, the
whole to be recovered before any court in the
District having competent jurisdiction. He was
also notified to replace the terrace within twenty
days, or he would be proceeded against in ac-

SOUR STOMACH.


If the food taken into the stomach is not d.
gested it decompOses. In the latter case pun
gent gas is developed which causes sour eructa-
TONS or else the stomach itself secrets an acid,
which, rising upward at intervals, stings the gull
let sharply. These extremely disagreeable SEN
sations are attributable to impaired digestion. To
get rid of them, or prevent their recurrence, It
Is only necessary to tone and regulate the gas
trio organs with Hostetter's Bitters. 1t will not
answer to pospone the great corrective with the
idea that the unpleasant symptoms will disap-
pear of themselves. So far from that being the
case, they almost invariably eliminate, If ne
elected, in chronic dyspepsia, with its cOncomt-
tants of gnawing in the stomach, dizziness, per-
verified vision, headache and sleeplessness. It is
true that all these disagreeables may be Obviated
by q course of the Bitters; but how much wiser to
anticipate their arrival with one or two doses Of
that sure preventive Of indigestion.

CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.
SCHENCK's PULMoNIC SYRUP,
SCHENCK'S SEA WEED TONIC,
SCHENCK's MANDRAKE PILLS,
Are the only medicines that will cure Pulmonary
Frequently medicines that will stop a cough
will occasion the death of the patient; they lock
up the liver, stop the circulation of the blood,
hemorrhage follows, and, in tact, they clog the
action Of the very organs that cansed the cough.
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are the causes
of two thirds Of the cases of Consumption. Many
persons complain Of dull pain in the side, con-
stipatiOn, coated tongue, pain in the shoulder
blade feelings Of drOwsness and restlessness, the
food lying heavily on the stomach, accompanied
with acidity and belching up Of wind.
These SYMPTOMS usually originate from dtsor-
dered condition of the stomach or torpid liver.
Persons so affected, If they take one or two
heavy colds, and if the cough in these cases be
suddenly checked, will md the stomach and liver
clogged, remaining torpid and inactive, and
almost before they are aware the lungs are
mass of sores. and liberated, the result Of which
is:death.
Schencks Pulmonic syrup IS an eXpectOranL
which does not contain opium or anything ealcu-
lated to check q cough suddenly.
Schenek's Sea Weed Tonic dissolves the food,
mixes with the gastric juices Of the stomach, aids
digestion and creates a ravenOus appetite.
When the bowels are costive, skin salloW, or
the symptoms otherwise Of q bilious tendency,
Schenek's Mandrake Pills are required.
