Odd Nance.

A name ia nothing + very well know,
If my friends wont get nand 1 viii try to show
The many odd names0f which we can boast,
TIE place that can beat as we offer a toast.
we have a Shadrach, whom we all we'll know,
Bnt whore Is our Mesnach and Abednegol
AT q meeting lately, I'm sure you'll think,
We had strange guest, both a Campbell and Mink
There is one who = Small another Brown,
Wolfe's we have plenty who fear not a hound;
Martins there are who profess religion,
Do, can't some kind friend, send us a Pigeon?
When we wish to hunt we have a Trailer,
Who Is neither a drunkard or railer;
If the hounds get lost We have a good Horn.
A Bouie too you can find any morn. Z s-
We also have a plenty of Walkers,
I'm sure that we don't need any takers,
And if We get cold, why bless your dear souls,
We also have plenty of Woods' and Coles.
Not far from town a strange man you will ind,
Though people say he il in his right mind,
Awake or asleep, raining or showing,
This curious man is always A Going.
And now my dear friends a warning I'll give,
For we in q land of liberty live.
Let me in your ears the warning now ring,
Baron's we now have and also a King.

Precautions Against afckmesa.-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 per-
form their functions. In the winter the most
prolific sources of sickness are damp and cold,
and it is therefore wise and prudent to fortify
the system against them by wholesome stimuli
lation. Hence it is that Hostctter's Stomach
Bftters prove such an admirable Safeguard
against the complaints most common at this
season. The ingredients of this powerful vege-
table invigorant comprise three essential medi-
cal elements which act simultaneously upon
the dta stion, the circulation, the secretions,
and the nerves, infusing strength and regularity
into all. In this way the Bitters put the body
in the best possible condition to escape an at
tack of rheumatism, or. intermittent fever. or
indigestion, or biliousness, or of pulmonary dL
sease. Cold and damp are very depressing; al
most as much so as excessive heat, and. u pro-
teetiye medicine Is quite as needfnl in winter as
in summer. The commercial stimulants so I'M
wisely taken in form of drains to "keep out the
cold" have a precisely opposite effect to that
produced by Hostetters Bitters. Their first re-
suit is succeeded by q reaction which devftal-
ICES aud prostrates the system; while, on the
other hand, the tonic and vitalizing operation
of the great vegetable invigorant, ia not only
immediate but permanent. There is no revul-
sion, no reverse nervous action. The physique
is strengthened, the appetite increased, the
bowels regulated the stomach reinforced, and
these conditions continue. II dyspepsia or
rheumatism, or hlliousneSs, Orinterinittept fever
or general debility, or nervous weakness, is
present in the system, eXpel it with this pure
and harmless antidote, which is not only in
valuable as a preventive of sickness, but also
a remedy for q large class of disorders. a~-
