Restoring Faded Goods.

Will you allow me to have little con-
verstion with your lady readers who have
ALPACA dresses that are dirty and faded
they wish to fix over:
Take water enough to cover the goods
that is boiling hot Put into tub blueing
enough with it to make the water almost
black. Let the goods remain until the wa.
ter is cold, then take out each piece care
fully, and hang on the stock over the tub
until nearly dry, do not wiring, then press
it, and it will look as we'll as when new.
If you wish to use any new put this through
the same process at the same time and it
will all look alike. 1t will do as we'll with
any black goods. IT.

THE GREAT REPUTATION
Which vegetlne has attained in all parts OF tn,
country asst
Great and Good Medicine

and the large number OF testimonials which
are constantly being received from persons who
have been cured by It's use, are conclusive
proof OF Its great value. II is recommended
by physicians and apothecaries. As Blood
Purifier and Health-Restorer, 1t has no equal.
Vegettne is not prepared for fancy drink
made from poor liquors, which debilitates the
system and tends TO destroy health instead OF
restoring 1t.
Are not the many testimonials given for the
different complaints satisfactory to any rea-
sonable persons suffering from disease that
they can be cured? Read the different testi-
monialS given, and no one can doubt. In many
or these cases the persons say that their pain
ana suffering cannot be expressed, as In cases
Scrofula, where. apparently, the whole body
relieve pain, cleanse, purify and cure such dis.
eases, restoring the patient TO perfect health
after trying different physicians many reme-
dies, suffering for years, Is IL not conclusive
proof, II you are o sufferer, you can be cured?
Why is this medicine performing such great
curel? 1t works in the blood. in the circulate
ing fluid. II can be truly be called the Great
Blood Purifier. The great source OF disease
originates In the blood; and no medicine that
does not act directly upon 1t, TO purify and rem
ovate, has any Just claim upon public atten-
lion. When the blood becomes lifeless and
stagnant, either from change OF weather or
cline, want OF exercise, irregular diet, or from
any other cause, the Vegetine will renew the
blood carry of the putrid humors, cleanse the
stomach, regulate the bowels and impart a
ton Is, In the public mind as well as In the
medical profession. that the remedies supplied
by the vegetable Kingdom are more safe, more
successful, In the cure OF disease, than mineral
medicines. Vegetine is composed OF roots,
banks and herbs. 1t is pleasant take, and is
perfectly safe TO give an infant. Do you need
regret It..

emotion which he struggled so plainly
to conceal, and to justify the beautiful

continued to grow worse q doctor was
sent for. Meanwhile Mrs. Meenan
succeeded in extracting two pieces of
turkey from his windpipe, but this did
not relieve him, and when DR.. Bush

CHRISTMAS.

Christmas in Wilmington passed off
very quietly, but the day wat gener.
ally enjoyed, despite the unpleasant
ness of the weather. The streets were
crowced with promenaders, particu-
larly in the afternoon. and considering
the free circulation of egg-nogg and
other Christmas drinks, very little
drunkenness was apparent.
At nearly all the churches special
Christmas services were held, and at
the Almshouse the inmates were treat
ed to a grand Christmas dinner.
Altogether the day was thoroughly
enjoyed, and to most of our people it
was, indeed, merry Christmas.
