When the Baptists of Hartford began
to hold public services an over.zealous
member of DR.. Strong's society called
upon him and asked him if he knew
that John Bolles had started an opposi-
tion meeting.
"No," said he, "when, where :"
"Why, at the court house"
ooh, yes, / know it," the Doctor

WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GoLD.--The
Department of Agriculture publishes
the following experiments, which a
gentleman from Georgia tried and
found effective In dispelling serious
trouble in horses.
About thirty years ago friend lost
by bots very fine horse. He took
from the stomach of the dead horse
about gill of bots, and brought them
to my office to experiment upon. He
made preparations of every remedy he
had heard of, and put some Of them
into each. Most had no effect, few
effected them slightly, but sage tea
more than anything else; that killed
them in fifteen hours. He concluded
he #ould kill them by putting them in
nitric acid, but it had no more effect on
them than water; the third day they
were as lively as when first put in. A
bunch OF tanzy was growing IN my
Office. He took a handful of that
bruised it, added little water, squeez-
ed out the juice, and put some bots i'll;
they were dead in one minute. Since
then I have had it given to every horse.
l have never knswn it to fail of giving
entire relief. My friend had another
horse affected with the bots Several
years later. He gave him the tanzy in
the morning; the next morning he took
up from the excretions three half pints
of bots.

How TO REMOVE WARrs.--We I'll d
the following in the Pacific Fur, |
Press, but would not like to vouch f r
its efficacy:
Warts are not only troublesome, b. t
dlsfigure the hands. Our readers will
thank us for calling their attention to
the following perfect cure, even of the
largest. without leaving a scar:-
"Take small piece of raw beet, steep
it all night in vinegar, cut as much
from it as will cover the wart, and tie
it on, or, if the excrescsnce is on IL e
forehead, fasten on with a strip #
plaster. It may be removed during
the dag and put ON every night. In
one. fortnight the wart will die an
peel off" The same prescription will
do for eorns.
