1t is a sine qua non of health, that the sour
ces of vitality, the ''springs of Hfe,' should be
free from contamination. The fluids which, by
their action upon the food, transforms ITSELF
must be pure, if the muscles, the bones and the
brain are to be properly noarished and kept
vigorous. To this end the stomach, the liver,
the bowels and the kidneys should perform un-
interruptedly their various functions, since if
these are disturbed the vital fluids speedily be-
come vitiated. The best, nay, the ONLY blood
depurent which purifies them, by overcoming
those bodily Irregularities which produce them,
is Hostetters Stomach Bitters. The principle
upon which this salutary Alternative acts is as
simple as it is philosophic. The origin of most
diseases, and invariably those which affect the
organs above mentioned, is weakness, caused
by insufficient assimilation of the food. The
Bitters speedily rectify the cause of the difficult
ty by restoring vigorous digestion, so that all
parts of the physical structure are supplied
with an abundance of pure, rich blood This
increases the activity of the discharging organs,
and enables them to throw of the effete matter,
which, ranking in the system, destroys health.
This bodily refuse having been got rid Of and
perfect assimilation re-established, there is
nothing to prevent healthy and active per-
formance of the various functions. Such being
the case it is plain that the Bitters are not only
the most reliable stomachic, but an eradicant
of those diseases of the liver, bowels and kid
neys which contaminate the springs of life.

We stopped at the Biggs House during
our recent visit to Portsmouth, and found
that it is indeed frst-class hotel Every
thing was orderly, neat and clean, and
the victuals wholesome and well cooked.
The room and bed assigned to us were
all we could desire. The house appeared
to have large run of business. Pat
Prendergast was polite and gentlemanly,
as usual, and Mr.. Jennings is the same
affable gentleman that we found him

Dyspepsia.

Is the most complicated of all disorders, and
the most variable in its symptoms. Pain in the
stomach, heartburn, cold extremities, f1atulence
constipation of the bowels, low spirits, capri
cious appetite, are all in turn the offspring of
this disease. With it is often associated feeble
action of the liver, and it frequently leads to
serious attacks of fever with fatal results. The
unfailing remedy for this disease in all its
stages is DACOSTA'S RADICAL CURE. 1t
regulates the liver, expels all morbid humors
from the system, and acts a gentle tonic
Trial size 25 cents. A few doses will relieve and
a little perseverance cure the worst cases.

OBITUARY,

Mrs. Laura Walker Washam was born in
Ironton, Ohio, in the year 1851. She was the
daughter of James and Susan Walker who en-
deavored to train her for usefulness and happi-
ness. AT the age of q she was married to Mr.
p. H. Washam, with whom she lived pleasantly
until her death. She was rather quiet and re-
tiring in her disposition, but was highly es-
teemed by those who knew her best. Kind and
intelligent and courteous, her life though hort
was not without Its blessings and its lessons to
others. 1t seems strange that God should per-
NIT the messenger of death to visit a happy
home, soon after it was set up in hope, but
believing that it is part of that plan which is
established on unfailing and eternal righteous
ness, we bow with reverence before His holy
Throne.
'Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
But trust Him for His grace;
Behind frowning providence,
He hides a smiling face.''
Mrs. Washam died Monday morning, August
Is, 1875 after sickness of nine months.
