MEDICAL ADvERTIsING.-The medical
profession are outspoken in their de-
ANNEXATION of the system of medical ad
vertising, and declare that any medi-
cine that is advertised is fraud How
thoroughly inconsistent and unfair is
such an argument The men who are
so loud In their criticisms, are those
who advertise themselves as medical
sauaaas by ostentatious display; splen-
did residences with massive door plates
fast horses and costly carriages. DIR.
J. WALKER, of California, an old practi-
toner, respected alike for his skill and
conscientious independence, dares to
differ; and having discovered in his
VINEGAR BITrERs purely herbalistic
medicine, free from all spirituous poi
sons--a wonderful specific for numerous
disorders, advertises the same for the
relief of his fellow man, and is borne
out in his declarations of it's many viz

Re cording Votes by Electricity.

A clerk employed in the government
Telegraph Office in France, NJ. Joaquin,
has conceived the following system for
recording votes in the National Assem-
bly, by electricity: Before every Deputy
two ivory balls are placed, like the but
tons of electric bells. If the Deputy
wishes to vote eyes, he presses the
button on his right; If he wishes to vote
NO. = ne presses the button on his left.
The voter establishes by this means an
electric communication which is trans
mitted toanapparatus close to the Presi-
dent and his secretaries. Every time
the electric current acts thus it opens
the door to a ball, and the ball falls
through tube into the ballot box. The
balls are made of glass or ivory. and are
strictly identical in weight. The two
ballot boxes are then weighed, and the
number of balls is indicated by the
weight. Finally, by turning a handle
all the balls which have not been used
are let out, and they give the number
of members who have abstained or were
absent when the vote was taken. Moth
ing can be more simple. M. Joaquin
has offered to set up his apparatus in
the Versailles Assembly for the sum of
60. 900 francs.

Evil Effects of the Short Hour Labor
system.

The complaints which Tom Hughes
has lately made about the evil effects of
short hours of labor the working classes
In England are confirmed by what we
hear from other sources of this dis
position to shrink the performance of
their duties. They leave as many jobs
as they mend, and the reason why
they prefer to work for large estab-
lishments rather than for individuals is
that a badly donejob is traceable to any
particular workmen. This devotion
to class interest makes, for the time,
dishonesty the best policy, but now and
then something occurs TO vindicate fair
dealing as matter of more expedien-
cy. The fall Of three grand brick
houses, lately, in London, just as the
Spectator who built them had put on
high mast, with a huge and gorgeous
flag to signalize their completion, illus
trates this view. In one case it was
found that the bricks had only been
heated little instead of burnt; no lime
Lad been used, and the walls were so
thin that only utter ignorance could
have imagined they could stand.

Kissing the Dead.

The danger from contagion and dis
ease of the practice of kissing the dead
is shown by an occurrence at Mt. Vernon,
N. Y. where the inhabitants are congrat-
ulating themselves on having escaped
the horrors of an epidemic. It appears
that young lady named Carroll return
ed O her fathers house in that village,
short time sipce, and died in day or
two afterward. During the wake which
followed large number of persons kiss,

that the girl died of smallpox in it's

was found that three of the bullions
from Nelson's epaulettes had got into
the gaping wound in Sir. Georges
head, and they could not be got out
then they had to be cut off. Some
years after, when Sir. George was asked
if he would be able to recognize a coat
offered to Greenwich hospital as that
worn by Nelson, the circumstance led
him to indentify it directly he found the
bullions which had stuck in bis wounded
head were missing from it.

Died Suddenly of Heart Disease.

How common is the announcement.
Thousands suddenly swept into eternity by
this fatal malady. This disease generally has
it's origin in impure blood filled with irritating,
poisonous materials, which. circulating through
the heart, irritate its delicate tissues. Though
the irritation may at first be only slight, pro-
ducing little palpitation or irregular action,
or dull. heavy or sharp darting pains, yet by
and by the disease becomes firmly seated and
inflammation. or hyPertrophy, or thickening
OF the lining membrane or of the valves, is
produced How wise to give early attention to
a case of this kind. Unnatural throbbing
or pain in the region of the heart should adj
moifish one that all is not right, and if you
would preserve it from further disease. you
must help it to beat rightly by the use of such
a remedy as will remove the cause of the
trouble. Use DR.. Pierces Golden Medical Dis
covery before the disease has become too
seated, and it will, by its great blood purifying
and wonderful regulating properties, effect a
