A Novel idea.

II these hard times some newspapers
are compelled to resort to strange devices
to sjstain themselves, and we are inclined
to think that the scheme hit upon by the
Kaisas City Times was not altogether
loHly. 1t introduced the lottery ele-
melt into its subscription list, and ad-
vetised four distributions of prizes for
the year among its subscribers. The
seond of these has just taken place, and
iti announced that thousand prizes,
wdth $4,000, were given away. But
thee was connected with the lottery a
NOEL contrivance for exciting attention
AM amusing the public, to which we
hale already alluded. The Times called
upjn all light-hearted young Western
dansels inclined to marriage to send in
thli names and photographs, with a
sktch of their characteristics, the design
be ing to put all such girls up as matri-
muial premiums to be distributed among
thu bachelors and widowers who sub.
sclbed for the Times. Of course it was
nd supposed that any girl would step
Toward 10 be raffled for, or that any
yong man was willing to choose wife
bylot; but there is always temptation
70 women in the chance to talk about
Themselves and venture into harmless
little intrigues with wedding in pros
pct, and it is no less pleasant for men to
rim risks in gallantry and gambling.
Tie real thing to be disposed of in the
lottery was of course acquaintanceship.
Ayoung fellow and q girl introduced by
th turning of wheel of fortune might
correspond, learn to like each other, and
pehaps get married. Amid all the sill
liess and vulgarity of the affair there
ws romantic element that redeemed it
finn dullness. No less than 325 girls
cane forward aud offered themselves as
pemiums, and of these 116 sent their
photographs. As competitors there ap-
pared 1000 subscribers to the Times
The drawing of the prizes took place be-
fre large audience, over which the
cunty judge presided, on Monday after
non, and the next day the Times pub
lshed lists of the lucky bachelors and
Iidowers, with the number of each mans
remium opposite his name. Unless for
hdden, the editor will forward each
ldy's address to the person to whom lot
hs assigned her, and he can then fold
lis hands and contemplate with satisfac-
ton the progress of 325 courtships, in
lhich he has played the part of Sir Pan
arus of Troy.

DEAR SIR-Yours of the 26th inst, re-
specting the merits of the chapman Per-
petual Evaporator, is received. In reply,
used No. 2 (galvanized) Evaporator last
year, at cost of fifteen dollars, with which
l made one thousand and fifteen gallons of
molasscs, equal in quality to any I have
seen. / made from 40 to so gallons per day,
ii. e., in ten hours.) The labor Of making
was light and pleasant. 1t is so constructed
that in operating requires but very little
labor, much less than that of Cooks
Evaporation" In fact, I feel warranted in
saying that from observation and informa-
ton of Others, that the. Chapman Evapo-
rator'' has no superior, if an equal, and at
less than half the COST I can certainly re-
commend it in preference to any other, be-
lng.fully convinced that trial will satisfy
any one, however skeptical.

our professions in economy and reform, you
will buy "Chapman's Evaporator
cheapest and the best.

ii. K. Stevens, Esq: Dear Sir-Tliis is to GER
tify that my daughter WITS taken sick hen she
was three years old, and got so low I'll. "eWere
obliged to keep her on pillow, withC. owing,
to keep the little thing together. She was at
tended by several physicians the regular at
all pronounced her case incurable. She had
been sick about q year, when hearing of the great
Blood Remedy, VEGETINE, commenced giving
her that, and continued it regularly till she was
about seven years old, when she was pronounced
perfectly cured. During her sickness three
pieces Of bone were taken from her right arm
above the elbow, one of them being very long.
Several small pieces were also taken from her
left leg. She is now twenty-seven years old, and
was seven years old, with no signs of Scrofula
or any other blood disease. Her arm is little
crooked but she can use 1t almost as we'll as the
other. Her legs arc Of equal length, and she is
not III the least lame. Her case was Scrofula,
inherited in the blood; and would recommend
all those having Scrofula IIun,or or any other
blood disease, If they wish to have perfect
edy, which does not weaken the system like
many other preparations recommended, but, OH
the contrary, it is nourishing and strengthening.
My daughters case will fully testify this for I
never saw nor heard Of a worsc form OF Scrofula.

frightful to look at, and painful beyond rndur

without improvement, a change of climate VAS
advised.
Have been to the Hot Springs in Arkansas
twice, each time giving their treatment a
thorough trial: Finally came back TO Boston,
burden to one in my situation: My disease and
the effect of so much powerful medicine, had go
damaged my system that the action of my stom-
ach was apparently destroyed, and my head was
into the skull bone.
The best physicians said my blood was so full
Uf poison they could do no more for ME. About
this time friend who had been ri invalid told

and through his persuasion commenced taking

youch for the above facts.
VEGETINE has sayed my life, and you are at

CERTIFICATES

ANDERSON, July 2, 1877.
This is to certify that I purchased from
J. w. Chapman & Co., last Summer, aNo.
4 % feet long) Perpetual Evaporator, (gal-
vanized iron,) with which made over
eight hundred gallons of Syrup from Sor-
ghum and Imphee canes. I made, under
favorable circumstances, as high as ten gal
Ions per hour, and think that could make
with suitable mill from rs to 100 gallons
per day. The Evaporator. is simple in con-
struction, easily operated, and makes an ar
ticle of Syrup unsurpassed by any other
that have seen. The cheapncss, Gas COM
pared with Others greater amount of boil
ing surface and simplicity of construction,
certainly give it the pre-eminence over all
others.
