strong Nerves an AtIainabie Bless
ing.

There ale many who have never known
the blessing of strong nerves, having been
born with weak ones. Those who have,
and through disease or some other cause,
have suffered loss OF nerve power, can,
by contrast, more fully appreciate the
magnitude OF that loss. The true way 10
repair it is to invigorate the system
through the medium Of improved diges-
ton, secretion, and the establishment ei n
regular habit OF body, three results inVarl-
ably accomplished by the use OF hostel
ter's stomach Bitters, which insures the
thorough conversion of the food into pure
nourlshins blood, fIom which the nerves,
in common with every oth9r part OF the
bodily economy. gather vigor, the grand
prerequisite OF health. The great ooJec-
ton TO sedatives and narcotics is that they
not only exert no tonic influence, but are
always followed by Il hurttul reaction.
such is far from being the case with the
b tiers, the primary action OF which Is
most salutary, and whose after effects are
beneficial in the extreme.

the question as to whether they will
be used rs witnesses or be prosecuted
has not yet been fully determined
upon. There are rumors that MIR.

necessary it is thought that Bent5n's

New CASTLE, SEPT. IA, 1876.
At last! Yesterday one hundre d
and fifty nine men said the books
should be purchased for the schools and
furnished free of charge. Did these
persons one and ali know what they
were doing? We think not. By figures
furnished the writer by the President
of the Board of Education, there is an
approximate amount 1924. left to buy
books, but he said not who was to pay
for the work and furniture in the room
now being fitted up. Nor of the 500
at least collected from the colored peo-
pie last year and this, and neoer paid
to them or their Trustee, as the laws
direct all tax assessed on colored per-
sons should be. The Board have no
right to create and leave debt unpaid j,
and what is more evident Town meet
ings. if attended to, would soon play
the mischief with them.
