Judgment Of the Public !!

During the past Eve years The public have
carefully observed the wonderful cures accom-
plished from the use of VEGETlNE. From its
use many an afflicted sufferer has been restored
to perfect health, after having expended small
fortune In procuring medical advice anu oo-
Its medical properties are Alternative, Tonios
Solvent and Diuretic. There is no disease OF
the human system for which the fEGETINE
cannot be used with perfect safety, as 1t does
not contain any metallic OF poisonous COM
pound. 1t Is composed exclusively of barks,
roots and herbs; il is very pleasant TO take;
every child likes it. II is safe and reliable, as
tho following evidence will show:

DESTROYING CHESTNUT TREES.

While the phylloxera Ia ravaging the
vineyards and the Colorado beetle
threatening the potato fields of France,
yet another plague Is reported to have
appeared in the Pyrenean districts. This
time 1t Is the groves and woods Of chest
nut trees which are threatened. Accord
ing to the Courier de BayOra1ae, q large
number Of these trees in the canton Of
Espelette and elsewhere have been at
tackled by small black insects, having
shining bodies, with six legs and small
wings, but apparently incapable Of fly
ing. These insects, it seems, eat their
way in beneath the bark Of the tree at
the level Of the ground, and then work
round the tree between the bark and the
hard wood, up to a height Of some ten
feet. The conducting vessels OF the sap
being thus destroyed, the trees soon dry
UP and wither. The insects are gener-
ally followed by species of worm.
which ascends even higher than the
former, eating channels not only be-
meath the bark, but even into the hard
wood of the tree. The losses already
occasioned by these two scourges are
stated by the Courier to be very great.
Entire plantations have been destroyed,
the oldest and youngest trees being at
tackled as we'll as the young and tender.
