Eminent Men of Science have discov-
cred that electricity and magnetism are
developed in the system from the iron IN
the blood. This accounts for the debili-
ty, low spirits, and lack of energy a
person feels when this vital element be-
comes reduced. The Peruvian Syrup,
a protoxide of iron, supplies the blood
with its iron element, and is the only
form in which it is possible for it to en-
ter the circulation.

Since the death of the Siamese Twins,
many curious incidents and anecdotes
are related Of them. The following, We
believe, has never yet appeared in print:
''On their last visit to Massachusetts,
some eight or ten years since, the twins
were advertised to exhibit for three days

Fair was being held at Manchester, n.
H., and Chang, being much interested
in agriculture, was anxious to attend.
Eng was determined to remain In Law

A compromise was at last effected by
their agent, who went with Chang to
Manchester, while Eng stayed in Law
renee and exhibited himself at half price.

Harry Jones, cigar maker, who has
been keeping little saloon under the
Allen block, was visited by the police,
last Saturday. But as it usually hap
pens, Harry had good notice Of their
coming and when they arrived he was
keeping as temperate place as there is
in the village. They found, however,
two bottles of liquor in the hay NOW Of
Randall's livery stable, but it did not
belong to any one and no one knew how
how it came there. 4 thorough search
in Harry's establishment revealed hole
in the floor under his bed. which was
well covered up with carpet. The hole
was large enough for barrel of rum,
and the favor of the locality indicated
rum, but there was not drop there.
Harry however, was frightened, packed
up his goods on the sly during Sunday,
and on Monday, while the officers were
t hunting for him he was hunting for OBJ
security. At 8 o'clock in the evening.
while the policeman was toasting his
toes at the depot. and watching for Har-
ry to take the train, Harry was down

There has been some advance in our

it required a 4 to 9Ie rise to justify us in
raising our quotations. Our receipts have
been heavier than lor' several weeks past,
