Precautions Against Sickness.

The ability of the human body to resist
the causes Of disease depends upon its
vigor and upon the regularity with which
the several organs perform their flnc-
tions. In the winter the most prolific
sources of sickness are damp and cold,
and it is therefore wise to lortily the sys-
tenn against them by wholesome stmu-
latiCn. Hence it is that Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters prove such an admirable safe
guard against the complaints most com
mon at this season. The ingredients OF
prise three essential medicinal elements
which act simultaneously upon the di-
gestion, the circulation, the sccretions,
and the nerves, infuSing strength and reg
uarity into all. In this way the Bitters
put the body in the best possible condi-
tion to escape an attack Of rheumatism,
or Intermittent fever, or indigestion, or
biliousncss, or Of pulmonary disease
Cold and damp are very depressing al
most rs much SO aS excessive heat, and Il
protective medicine is quite us ncedul in
winter as in summer. The commercial
stimulants so unwisely taken in the form
of drains to " keep out the cold. have a
precisely opposite effect TO that produced
by Hostetter's Bttcrs. Their first result
is succeeded by IA reaction which devtal-
ICES and prostrates the system while, on
the other hand, the tonic and vtalizing
operation of the great vegetable invigor-
ant, is not only immediate but perma-
Dent, There is no reVusion, no reverse
nervous action. The physique is strength
encd, the appetite increased, the bowels
regulated. the stomach reinforced, and
these conditions continue. If dyspepsia, 3,
or rheumatism, or biliousness. or inter
mittent fever, or general debility, or ner-
vous weakness, is present in the system
expeI it with this pure and harmless an
tidote, which is not only invaluable as a
preventive Of sickness, but also remedy
for large class OF disorders.

TRADE DoLLARs.-M. F. Griffin last
week received three hundred Trade Dol
lars from San Francisco and, other silver
coin being scarce, they were soon in cir
culation about town. Being newly coined
and the first introduced in this section,
the Cinnamon (who are always anxious
to get silver didn't know what to make
out Of them. One Celestial sold NJ. Lang
three dollars worth of gold dust and Mr..
Lang passed him out three Trade Dollars.
The Chinaman looked at the new coin
with a "smile that was child-like and
bland" then shook his head as the idea
presented itself that he was being made
the victim of a practical joke, and then
said: "Oh, no me no likce; you make
him over there ?" at the same time point
ing to Lang's tin-shop on the opposite
side of the street.

night moon-eyed child of the sun, who

thinking it some wild animal, took pis-
tol and went to investigate. The boy
came upon the Celestial suddenly, and
that gentleman. finding himself in close
quarters, drew large knife and striking

they were probably thrown out on account
