MODERN MEDICAL DIsCovERY.-It is
claimed that disease, with few excep-
lions, has been conquered by the research
and intellect of enlightened men and yet
noted professor of New York admits
that "of all sciences, medicine is the most
uncertain" and that thousands are an
nually slaughtered in the sick room. F"
Certain "schools" of medicine are in ex-
istence, one of which "makes the patient
ill.," in order to claim a cure; and another
administers "sugar-coated bread pills"
relying upon nature to effect her own
cures. DIR. J. WALKER, of California, an
old and respected physician, tried both
modes of treatment and both failed. He
then appealed to natures curative-herbs;
and now enjoys rugged health. He has
given the benefit of his discovery to the
world, in the shape of VINEGAR BIrTERs,
and since its Introduction has sold
quantity almost large enough to make a
small harbor, or to float the " Great East.
ern." Its curative properties are attested
by grateful thousands. II

load the grain prepared for market from
the hrst story, it may repay In labor
saving, and perhaps in warmth, for the
extra cost of construction.
But the manure cellar, or the manUre
shed, Is too little regarded in plans for
| the construction of barns. Practical
farmers are becoming convinced that
more attention must be given to saving
the manures accommodating upon the
farms or to be found in the natural dep0s-
its-the muck swamps-if farming is to
continue profitable. Where manure Gel
lars can be made upon lower level than
that occupied by the stables, it saves con-
siderable labor in cleaning out the sta
bles. 1t is much easier to scrape the ma
nure together, and have its own gravity
carry 1t out of the way, than it is to lift it
with fork or shovel, and throw it upon
the pile.
There is one very decided objection to
the plans generally made for manure Gel
lars, and that is, they are located directly
under the stables. A manure cellar, con-
tanning fermenting manure, giving off
ammonia and carbonic acid gas, which
find their way through the cracks and
crevices in the stable floors, are inhaled
into the lungs, or absorbed through the
skin of animals, cannot be otherwise than
detrimental to their health. A manure
cellar entirely back of the stable, into
which the manure from the animal could
be showed through narrow openings, with
tight covers, might be less objec-
tionable. Such cellars should have ven
tilators that would freely carry off all the
gases arising from tine fermenting ma
nure.
The chief advantage of a manure cellar
over manure shed would be its keeping
the manure warm and in state Of de
composition, in the coolest weather. This
would be quite an important considera-
ton where muck or turf is to be CON-
posted with it, or where it is to be applied
to spring crops. Manure kept in con-
slant fermentation would neutralize the
deleterious acids in twice or three times
its bulk of swamp muck. Bones, decay.
ing animal or vegetable matter could be
thrown in, digested and prepared for re-
cuperating the soil.
We would offer one admonition to all
who have manure cellars; beware of fire.
fanging. If the manure is to be thrown
into pile and left undisturbed, it had
better be thrown into the open air, or at
least under an open shed, where the low
temperature will prevent that active fer
mentation that causes burning, or fire.
fanging. Manure had far better be kept
in a raw, undigested state, and so applied
to the soil, than to be consumed by burn
ing. Where store hogs can have free &C.
cess to the manure cellar, they will gener-
ally keep the manure pretty well worked
over, so as to prevent burning, and where
muck or other absorbants are composted
with the manure they will pretty thor
oughly intermix them. Farmers, give
this subject of improved barns and ar
rangements for saving manure your earn
est consideration during the leisure of
winter !-RuraL Home.

How They Conduct an Inquest i'm China

fenced to two years. Imprisonment. The
preliminary inquest was held by Chi.

native village, who had as much to do
with it as Congress, and who kept on
"testifying" at the pitch of their voices
to the virtues of the deceased and to the
foulness of the crime. The four coolies
all spoke at once when they we've asked
by the Coroner the usual string of ques-

put on such occasions, and their answers

About one year ago caught a severe cold
in the head, which terminated in severe
form of Catarrh. During the time ulccra-
lions occurred in the nasal passages, and be-
came wholly deaf in one ear, with partial
deafness in the other. The Inflammation had
involved all the delicate structures of the
ears, and was in immediate danger of per-
manent deafness. The discharge became pro-
fuse and fetid, both into my throat and from
my ears. In this condition I called on DR..
Pierce for aid, who prescribed his Golden
Medical Discovery and Catarrh Remedy, and
under their use have rapidly recovered. My
hearing is restored, and my Catarrh is en-
