Reliable restimnnv.

It cannot be reaso onably supposed that when
person testides to the efficiency of a remedy
whose benefits he has experienced, without So
Hcitation, that he does so for the purpose of
misleading the public, or from any other mo-
tive than that of gratitude: 1t is still more un-
reasonable to suppose that eminent physicians
would corroborate the evidence thus given un-
less they are persuaded of its truth The pro-
prietors of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are con-
stantly in the receipt of voluntary testimonials
acknowledging the curative and preventive
potentency of this benifcent tonic and corec-
tive, emanating not only from those who have
felt its influence, but also from well known
members of the medical profession, both here
and prescribed it in their private practice In
the face OF such evidence of this to which the
widest publicity has repeatedly been given 1t
would be absurd to question the medicinal vir-
tues of the Bitters. Skepticism upon this point
was long ago disarmed, and they are to-day as
much respected and far more widely known than
many of the officinal remedies which figure
conspicuously in the pharmacopoeia. They are
universally recognized to be the supreme REM
edy for intermittent and remittent fevers, dys-
pepSia, liver complaint, general debility, dis
orders of the bowels and nervousness as well as
a means of fortitying the system against mala-
rious influences and those which operate in l.
Juriously upon the sensitive organs. Whether
used as a remedy for actual disease, as a means
OF building up the broken down physique or OF
fastening convaleseence, they are never re-
sorted to In vain, snd tney often restore com
| plele health when prescribed remedies
even initiate its recovery s"in0

BY DIR. l. t. NJ, AUTHOR OF "BRoTHERLY LOVE- y
A can-can, for the benefit of the choir at the
NJ E. Church and other charitable purposes,
come off Friday night, the first night in the
year A D. 1879, and I, wicked sinner, was there
mixed right up with the Church people, minis
ters elders, leaders, brothers and sisters,-every
body laughing talking and having all kinds of
fun. My soul leaped within me and was al
most ready to excaim, ''Let thy servant depart
in peace" Just to think of it, that should
live to enjoy the pleasure of seeing the Church
throw OF her garb of extreme righteousness
and join the world in frolic and fun where saint
and sinaer could enjoy the sports and amuse-
ments of grand exhibition upon an equal
footing without any daring to molest or make
afraid. But so it was,-my eyes saw it, and my
whole soul and BODY enjoyed it.
i But hasten to- give your readers brief de-
| scription of this grand can-can. The first act
was the exhibition Of one of the most horrible
looking animals my eyes ever beheld,
and 1 have searched all the natural histories
that am acquainted with, and failed to find
the name or a description of the monstrous
beast, and therefore in order that future gen.
erationsmay be wise, Il will give brief descrip-
tion of this creature. The name announced for
the animal was Kiasskaticuss. 1t is about the
size of a halfgrown elephant, and has long
snout and short tail, and very much resembles
! that quaaruped. This animal is said to be part
man and part beast, with an additional curse
entailed upon his race, that he is to travel on
all fours in position of our forefathers. This
| strange and unfortunate being was marched
around the room by tx-Sherif Wilson, to the
great delight of somt, and to the amazing fear
of others I was exceedingly glad and over
joyed that belonged to the more fortunate
race and was not compelled to go on all-fours
during my natural liie.
The next scene oplprogramme was Rachel
and Jacob at the well. Jacob was thirsty, and
drank, and drank, and l thought he never
would quit.
The next scene WASH courtship on a rail-car
And such a scene! Hy whole moral nature
was shocked at the tuning, twisting, winking
and blinhng, wry-faeihg expression of think
ing that j could not tefrain from making q
speech. Being a modlst man / was about to
leave thereon, but thought struck me that Il
the good biothers and sisters could stand all
. this surely ought to, and staid. And, oh
how glad TIM that dill.

I looked aiolnd, waited ami expected to heal

4 Sad Case Of Intemperance,

Hon. James r. Hubbell, of Delaware,
ex-Speaker of the Ohio Hause OF, Repre-

found in a piteous state of intoxication,
by patrolman Wilcox, last evening, and
was lodged in the station house to be
taken care of. This is the third time
within few weeks that it has been nee
essary for his good to lock him up. He
appeared before Mayor Bull this morn
! ing, wearing fine suit of clothing which
was literally saturated with blood The
spectacle was sorrowful, indeed, to those
who knew him when he was in the prime
OF political life
A clean cut cash under his nose, pene-
trating TO the jaw bone, received he knew
not how, bled profusely during the night,
clotting his clothing with hard masses OF
blood He is a lawyer of fine ability,
and generous hearted man. He stated
TO Mayor Bull that he had lost his wife
and two children by death, and much OF
his property having paid $4,000 bail
money this year. He is about fifty years
Of age The station officials dressed his
wound and did all they could to make
his unpleasant 81 tuation more comforta-
BILE. He was nervous; almost a wreck;
and could not eat. Patrolman Domigan
was detailed to take him home. In poll
tics, Mr. Hubbell commenced as Repub,
hcan He Johnsonized, and subsequent
ly became a Democrat. His condition is
deplorable, awakening the keenest sym
.pathy of all.-COlunabas Dispatch.
