A CARD.

1t is customary for an author to have pre-
face to his work; a politician to shove out
his plank; a mechanic will hang out his sign
physician his single. As propose making
my profession veterinary Surgeon)a specially,
some will wish to know my theory of prac-
tice. To be brief physician or Veterinary
Surgeon is hand maid of nature, or should
be- When called to see a patient, my dag
noss will be as discriminatory as possible.
When get correct idea of the disease a
medicine must be selected which will effect a
healthy animal in a manner similar as pos
sibe, i. e. one that will excite in him symp>
toms very similar to those presented by the
disease to be treated
Secondly, Only to give single article at a
time, but when one medicine is not sufficient
for the complete cure of the disease after ais
loving full time for the action of the first
remedy, another suitable one, nearest in an
alogy to the existing state of the disease must
be given, followed by a third, if the patient
be not fully relieved, and so on, till the last
traces be obliterated. The invisible NOR
bid changes in the interior, and the outward
changes of the state of health visible TO
our senses, constitute that which we call dis
ease, and remedies must be selected indicated
by the whole of the symptoms which will, by
removing these outward and preceptible
symptoms Of disease, extinguish and destroy
the internal changes.
Thirdly, | believe simple and small doses
assist nature instead of depicting her From
my thirty years practice | have found that
when medicines were properly prepared, they
had still their specific action, and that dis
ease was more speedily removed than when
stonger preparations are employed
| endeavor to select a medicine homeopathic

lister just strength enough of it to effect the
object in the safest manner. 1t matters not
whether this or that strength is employed,
provided the remedy is homeopathic to the
disease, and exactly the requisite impression
| is produced upon the affected parts. The
only strength to be decided is, which
strength cures most safely and quickly
| Small doses when well chosen, affect the seal
of the complaint almost exclusively, because
| in disease the susceptibility to the affected
parts to the action of remedies, is vastly great
| er than in the same parts in a state of health
they possess pretenaturally acute senslbity
to be strongly effected by any substance hav'
ing the property of producing like irritation
| Thus the scalded hand is panied by distan
| fire, the infamed skin by the slightest touch
the sore eye to light.
Medicine is the small guiding force, nature
the strong impelling force; nature is trul,
| the agent in curing disease, and she acts in &C

tunity of inspecting the several issues and
copies Of the eight magnificent chromos the
choice from which is given with subscription
to either of the illustrated weeklies will huve
a handsome and profitable business. These
papers are well known, and sell readily tor
from 10 to Is cents on news-staDds, and are
now first offered through AGENTS to annual sub
scribers, with valuable chrome, which, to all
lovers of art, is alone worth more than the
subscription price. An annual subscriber to
the Illustrated Newspaper receives during the
wear over $50 newspaper pages. Folded to
the size of large octave book, the subscriber
would have 1928 pages, equal to seven octave
books of ordinary size, say 400 pages each,
and one half Of these pages would contain fine

How TO Pass THE WINTER EVEN
INGs.-A writer in the Western Rural
says that the winter is now nearly
upon US, and arrangements for
spending the long evenings are in
order. Among other things RECON-
mended, newspapers and periodicals
should be subscribed for. Nothing
is more entertaining or useful than q
newspaper at the fireside; they
should be thoroughly perused by the
Young ladies' and gentlemen of the
house. and their contents discussed
and digested. No better way can
be devised of fixing principles in the
mind and developing the truth =
Another noint is we'll taken: En-
courage the young people of the
neighborhood to meet together for
the discussions Of the day. This will
be of vast benefit to them and highly
enjoyable to their parents who listen
TO the discussions. Weekly meetings
Of this kind in the parlors of the
neighbors may be the starting point
of many brilliant career which
otherwise might never illumine the
world. And then these words are
added relating to lectures: If in q
thickly settled community or in a
small village, arrange for an occa-
sional lecture in the school house or
church. Lee, urers can always be
obtained who will take into consider
alton the size Of the place and make
their charge so reasonable as to
scarcely be felt. Almost any COM
munity can furnish an audience Of
two or three hundred, and ten cents
apiece would pay lecturer. Lee.
lures might be upon a genersl sub,
Jet or upon agriculture. A little
community of not mere than -four
hundred people in Michigan have APP
propriated seveuty-fve dollars tC
defray the expenses OF three lectures
upon some general subject, agricul
ture and stock-raising; and they
have secured able men as their lee
turers, even for that limited sum
From this little beginn;n g their lee
ture course will doubtles become o
more importance every year, unit
the little town will support as larg
course as places of more preten
sions, and will finally make. it
source OF profit to the managers.

The AUTHORS OF THE "SPELLGNG
MANIA. And now it is said that the
publishers of Webster's Dictionaries
are responsible for the recent "Spel~
ling Bee excitement. Whether this
is true or not, the spelling mania was
a good thing, and it undoubtedly had
a verv excellent influence. OF all
educational accomplishments, a
proper knowledge of the photography
of our own language is certainly the
most desirable, and OF all deficiencies
in our educational methods, thai re-
lating to this study is the most mark
ed And we were therefore going
to say that whether the spelling ex-
element came about through the
advertising efforts of the Webster
publishers or not, one thing is quite
clear, and that is that there is moth
ing that has helped to stimulate the
widespread interest 10 the subject,

ga. The resurrection case noticed
as occurring in Lancaster against Mr..
Stackable is appearing in many
papers badly muddled The dead
mans name, instead of Stackable, has
become Shock Cole. He was dead
three years, but they have him dead
five years. They have the people OF
Lancaster and Potosi greatly excited
over it, which is an exaggeration.
The man who was arrested is said to
have been tried, fined 500, and or

found them, whereas he was only pre-

had been tried, what is to be thought
