The Best Evidence.

The following letter from Rev. E. S. Best, Pastor of
the NJ. Z. Church, Natck, Mass, will be read with
interest by many physicians; also those suffering
from the same disease afflicted the son of the Rev.
E. S. Best. No person can doubt this testimony, as
there is no doubt about the curative power of VEG
ETINE. 1850
NATICK MASS, JAN. LIST, 1873.
MR.. H. R. STEVENS:
Dear Strive have good reason for regarding your
VEGETINE a medicine of the greatest value. We
feel assured that it has been the of saving
sons life. He is seventeen years OF age; for the
last two years he has suffered from necrosis of his
leg caused by scrofuous affection, and far re-
duced that nearly all who saw him thought his re-
coyery impossible. A council of able physicians
could give us but the faintest hope of his ralv
ing; two of the number declaring that he was beyond
the reach of human remedies, that amputation
could not save him, lie had not vgor enough to
dure the operation. Just then we commenced giving
him VEGETINE and from that time to the present
he has been continually improving. He has lately
resumed studies thrown away his crutches and cane,
and walks about cheerfully and strong.
Though there is still discharge from the OPEN
ing where his limb was lanced, we have the fullest
confidence that in little time he will be perfectly
cured
He has taken about three dozen bottles of VEGE-
TINE, but lately but little, he declares he is
too well to be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,
MRS. L. G. F. BEST.

PROJECT FOR THE CIVILIZATION
OF AFRICA.

A bold project for the civilization of
Africa is announced under the sanction
of Captain Sir John H. Glover, Mr.. R.
N. Fowler, and other well known gentle
men. This is the formation Of canal
for commercial purposes, from the mouth
Of the river Bella on the Atlantic, in the
neighborhood Of Cape JUDY and Cape
Bajador. opposite the Canary Islands. 10
the northern bend OF the Niger at Tim
buctoo. n distance OF TAO miles. Such
highway would open up the African con-
tinent to the world. and it is believed
that no formidable obstacle opposes its
construction, but that the Conformation
of the great Desert Of Sahara favors the
scheme. For $50 miles of the distance
there is great hollow. supposed to be
$50 feet below the level Of the Atlantic,
which was probably at one time covered
by the sea. This low country is separ-
ated from the coast by broken ridge of
about thirty miles. through which the
river Bella runs for twenty-five miles, so
that all that would be necessary in order
to reach it is to deepen the channel OF
the river, cut through the ridge, and let
the Atlantic fall into the vast arid basin.
In this way fine sheet of water would
be formed, the climate would be I'M
proved, the country would become more
fertile for pasturage, and agriculture and
commerce would be carried into the
heart Of Africa.-t London Daily News.
