Grasshopper Destroyers.

In addition to the silky mite or spi.

the grasshopper eggs, and which We
are told has been discovered here,
there has been discovered, in the past

small thin, white worm, about fourth
of an inch long, and the body as thick
as common brass pin, which is found
in the egg-sack devouring the eggs.

quantity Of egg-sbells examined, We

SMALL CHEESE 1t seems strange
that orr cheese makers are all in for
the manufacturing Of large sized cheese
Most of that luxury used in the city
is purchased weekly from the retail
dealers in small quantities, say from
three to FIVE pounds. The reason is
the cheese has always to be cut when
purchased, and if obtained in large
quantities it dries up, and is unfit for
use Again, no family. however
wealthy, would ever think Of purchas.
ing in the summer time whole cheese
that weighs thirty or forty pounds,
because. too, it would become stale and
unfit for use before a moderate family
could use it up. Now, we take it, our
dairy folks could make cheese that
would weigh six, eight, or ten pounds,
with just as little expense as to make
those great fellows that have to be
sliced up when sold. The convenience
to our city population would be great
could this be brought about. Of
course hotels and boarding houses pur-
chase the large sized ones, but private
families hardly ever do.-Ex.

form found Its way. Although widely known

Owing to this fact 1t has been used with sue

or internal. Nearly all the Surgeons have
adopted 1t on account OF its great healing
properties.
The most efrecttiai way OF using the article
is in the form of a perforated plaster. The
extensive use OF ordir ary PerfoI ated or Por-
GUS Plasters. is a testimony to its merit
The only objection ever found with the Or
dlnary Rubber Porous Plaster is that it acts
too sowIy-requiring days and continuous
wear to relieve PAIN or to effect a cure.
A celebrated Physician OF New York. who
has long made the medical properties OF Rub

improvement in Porous Plaster by int rOduc

objections, causing the Plaster to do in a

Speech of J. Alexander Fulton.

BEFORE THE STATE DEMOCRATIC CON-
vENTIoN At DOVER, JUNE 10, 1876.
The speech of Mr.. Fulton before the
State Democratic Convention, at Do

occasion, and abounded in so much

give it entire. Upon entering upon

and in acknowledging the compliment
paid him, spoke as follows:

To be called to preside over the delib-

honor at any time; but, in view of the
large and respectable constituencies
you represent, and the important du.
ties committed to yeur care, it is
greatly enhanced. The best return /
can make for this distinguished favor
will be faithful discharge of the du-
ties that devolve upon me as presiding
officer. To this pledge my best en-
deavor. and with your prompt and
cordial assistance, feel my labors will
be very light.
With this sincere and hearty express
sion of thanks, | might at once assume
the seat you have assigned me; but,
perhaps, it is proper l should add a
few words of more general import.
Our meeting to day, though custo-
mary and formal one, is, nevertheless,
one of great interest and importance.
Our country, after passing through
many trials and some dangers, is just
completing the first century of her
political life, and is now celebrating
her Centennial Jubilee. To witness
her triumphs, and to rejoice IN her
prosperity. she has invited, and is now

CONSERVATIVES, TAKE NOTICE


Every moment of delay makes your cure more
hopeless, and much depends the judicious choice
of remedy. The amount of testimony in favor of
DIR. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, cure for con-
sumption, far exceeds all that can be brought to
support the pretensions of any other medicine. See
DR.. Schenck's Almanac, containing the certificates
of many persons of the highest responsibility, who
have been restored to health after being
incurable by physicians Of acknowledged ability.
schenck's Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many, MS
these evidences will show but the cure is often pro-
NOTED by the employment of two other remedies
which DR.: Schenck provides for the purpose. These
additional remedies are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills BY the timely of these
medicines, according to directions, DR.. Schenck
titles that most any case of Consumption may be
cured

The People Want Proof.

There is no medicine prescribed by phyei-
clans, or sold by Druggists, that carries such
evidence of its success and superior virtue as
BosCHEE's GERMAN SYRUP for severe Coughs,
Colds settled on the Breast, Consumption, or
any disease of the Throat and Lungs. A proof
of that fact is that any person afflicted, can get
a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try its superior
effect before buying the regular size at 10 cegts.
1t has lately been introduced in this country
from Germany, and its wonderful cures are as
tonishing everyone that use it. Three doses
will relieve any case. Try it. Sold by r. II.
