egar BitterS are a purely Vegetable
preparation, made chiefly from the native
herbs found on the lower ranges OF the Sler-
ra Nevada mountains of California, the
medicinal properties of which are extract
Z ed therefrom without the use OF Alcohol.
The question Is almost daily asked, hat
is the cause of the unparalleled success OF
VINEGAR BITTERs?'' Our answer is, that
they remove the cause of disease, and the
patient RECEIVERS his health. They are the
great blood purifier and a lfe-giving prin-
ciple, perfect Renovator and Invigorator
of the system. Never before in the history
of the world has a medicine been COM
pounded possessing the remarkable quail
ities of VINEGAR BITTERs in healing the sick
of every disease man is heir to. They are
gentle Purgative as well as Tonic, reliev-
ing Congestion or Inflammation of the
Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Dis
eases.
Ifme will enjoy good health, let
them use VINEGAR BITTERs as a medicine,
and avoid the use of alcoholic stimulants
in every form.

REECHER AND TILTON SCANDAL,

For week past the entire country
has been shaken to its center by the
revelations brought to light by Theo-
dors Ti]ton, touching the chastity Of
his own wife and the morality of Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher The details of
this shameful affair is the saddest
chapter in American history, and if
true, dark blot on the American
name. Tilton charges Henry Ward
Beecher with the grossest immortality
In connection with Mrs. Tilton and
brings what seems to be the most indu-
hitable proofs to substantlate what he
says. Mr.. Beecher follows with a
general denial to everything lie is charg-
ed with of an adulterous or criminal
character, and in a forcible manner
comes to the rescue of Mrs. Tilton
claiming for her the utmost purity and
fidelity as wife and mother Mrs.
Tilton also appears in the papers with
ageneral summary Of the wrongs that
have been inflicted on her, and lays
bear some of Tilton's accu sations both
against her and Beecher. She tells
some hard stories of her husband which
If half true shows what he says should
be taken with some grains Of allowance.
Meanwhile the Plymouth Church Com
mittee have tie matter before them
and will endeavor to sift the whole affair
10 the bottom. At the present writing it
must be admitted that the proof Of Mr.
Beechers innocence is not so clear to
the minds Of his friends. Mr.. Beech
er, however, has not yet prese nted a
full statement Of his side of the ques-
ton and he may in his disclaimer be
able to clear his skirts and show him
self unspotted to the world. For the
sake of his great name, which in many
respects stands unrivaled in the world.
it is fervently hoped he may come out
Of this shameful affair with his honor
unsullied and his character unblemish-
ed.
On the inside of our paper We give
Mr.. Tilon's statement; also general
denial from Dir. Beecher and Mrs.
Tilton.
