The Wear and Tear Of city Life.

The wear and tear of city life are a Sc
we're tax upon the strongest constitutions.
The hurry and hustle and anxietes of
business keep the nervous system in
state of unnatural tension during business
hours, and in the end impair the vigor and
elasticity of the vital organization. The
penalty of all undue excitement is subse-
quent exhaustion. The best remedy for
it, whatever the cause, is Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, the tonic and Alternative
properties of which rapidly diffuse them
selves through the entire system, revive
and reinforce every dormant faculty, and
restore natural condition of body and
mind. Some moral reformers insist upon
the disuse of all stimulants. This is, to
say the least, irrational. All competent
physicians admit that a pure, medicated
stimuant is one of the most useful reme-
dies known. As a tonic and invigorant
for the aged and languid, Hostetter's Bit
ters has no equal. 1t is the sheet-anchor
of the feeble and debiltated. In all eli
mates and in every disorder which breaks
down the bodily strength, it is an abso-
lutte specific. 1t is also an invaluable
remedy for sea-sickness. The nausea and
retching caused by the pitching and roll
ing of vessel at sea paralyzes the bodily
and mental energies and those who suffer
from it would do well to resort to the Bit
ters as means of sure and permanent
relief No steamer should sail without a
supply of the article Among the botan-
ic ingredients of which it is composed are
some of the most powerful blood depur-
ents the vegetable kingdom affords. Con-
sequently it not only invigorates, but also
purifes the system through the natural
suices that nature has provided.

"Oh, no - returned the saucy chick ;"I
know how much my crop will hold.n
"Cluck, cluck - my son you forget how
young you are. Why you began to peep
only four months ago. Now you are quite
chicken to be sure but don't think be-
cause your comb is beginning to sprout,
that you know more than your elders We
who have picked and scratched for years
have picked up wisdom and chickens like

you will certainly lose your head. Look

the tough old speckled hen; but what Of
that I'd rather be tough and alive, than
tender and roasted Take your mothers
advice; remember that moderate eating
and long life are better than gluttony

Impatient of SO much wisdom. Chicken
ran off to the sty, where he found his friend
Neb, the pig.
"Ba. Neb.'' cried he, "you lazy thing!
Why don't yon bestir yourself, instead of
doing here all day with such dirty
face?'
"Stir myself" exclaimed Neb. ..That's
not easily done. Somehow my legs are
getting too small for me-"
II might give you little advice but
with my mother, Mrs. Hen. She'd tell
you to stop eating. if you don't want to be
stuffed and roasted next Thanksgiving
Day. That's the way she talks to me-"
Stuffed ~ repeated Neb with an angry
twinkle in his little gray eyes. "Such stuff

'Ofcourse," said Chicken, gaily. "Guess
we know what's what but there's the far
mer. Hope you'll have a good dinner.'
So Chicken and Neb went ON eating.
and enjoying themselves, till. one dark
morning, Chicken was aroused by terri
BILE squeal. He flew from his perch, and
ran into the yard. There was poor Neb,
lying dead; the butcher standing near him
with great knife in his hand.
Chicken, terribly frightened at the sight,
ran to hide under a rock.
"What if l should be mistaken I" thought
he. II wish

Whatever it was, it came too late; he
was roasted for the next Thanksgiving
