MODERN MEDICAL DIsCovERY.-It is
claimed that disease, with few exceptions.
has been conquered by the research and
intellect of enlightened men; and yet a
noted professor Of New York admits that
of all sciences, medicine is the most I'm
certain, and that thousands are annually
slaughtered in the sick room" Certain
schools" of medicine are in existence. one
of which makes the patient i'll, 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 ma
lures curative-herbs and now enjoys
rugged health. He has given the benefit
of his discovery to the world, in the shape
of VINEGAR BITTERs, and since its intro
duction has sold quantity almost large
enough to make small harbor, or to float
the Great Eastern" Its curative proper
ties are attested by grateful thousands.

A BEECHER ON LAGER.-The Rev.
Thomas K. Beecher says in the Elmira
Gazette that he has never known case
Of hahltual drunkenness to result from
the use oflager beer. He recomm ends
the appointment in every city of an
''unimpeach able inspector of all bever-
ages offered for sale: and memorable
condemnation of the deleteriouS. ;"
When this is done, he continues, I'VE
shall then probably have gone as far
as it is possible for human society to
go in protecting its members against
bad habits In this direction it would
seem as if time and labor and money
would be we'll expended. Profoundly
satisfied that stimulus has a salutar y
part to play in Christian civilization,
and that alcohol is natures readiest
and almost universal stimulus, the
problem would seem to be so to use 1t
as to gain from it all the good that can
be gained and avoid ali the evil, hold
ing fast the double truth found in
Scripture, Wine is a mocker, strong
drink is raging, and whosoever is de-
celved thereby is not WISE Also,
Give strong drink unto him that is
ready to perish, and wine unto those
that be of heavy hearts And this
'Let your moderation be known unto
all men,"

AN INDIANA ROMANCE.

She couldn't see it in that light
she didn't want to marry him. and
he was bound she should. They
both lived couple of miles from the
city, and near neghbors. She refused
TO listen to his counting, and he grew
desperate. So he went off to the
West, aud while out there persuaded
friend to write a letter saying that
he was dead, and asking as his dying
request, that she might, if she ever
went out that way, to stop for mo-
ment and toss weed or perchance a
flower on his lonely grave.
This was tender, but it didn't take
worth a cent; and she wrote back a
letter TO the friend saying that if he
had any consideration for her feelings
at all to send her the dead lovers
watch and chain, his money and all
hio yalnables. To carry out his plans,
the dead man sent home his brass
jewelry and other effects, and she i'm.
mediately proceeded to don his trink,
cts aud start to singing school with
the chosen "irller" Of her heart.
On their way back home the pair
were startled by the apparition Of the

was not intended f0r the public, but;
it indicates such genuine disenterest-

which, however much we may ques-
tion its wisdom, fairly declared for au-
other standard-bearer, that we take
the liberty Of publishing it. And in
this connection, we beg to call the
particular attention of our readers to
that part of the extract which refers
