Breathing Miasma Without Injury

There is no exaggeration in the statement
that thousands Of persons residing from one
years end to another in fever and ague re-
gions on this Continent and elsewhere, breathe
air more or less impregnated with miasma,
without mourning the disease, simply and
only because they are in the habit Of using
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as a preventive.
1t has frequently happened, and the fact has
been amply attested by the parties them
selves, that persons surrounded on all sides
by neighbors suffering the fortunes of this
shivering and burning plague, have enjoyed
absolute immunity from it, thanks to the
protection afforded by the Bitters. Nor is
that standard anti-febrile cordial less efiica-
cious in remedying than in preventing chils
and fever, bilious remittents, and disorders of
kindred type. Taken between the parox-
ysms, it speedily mtigates their violence, and
eventually prevents their recurrence. These
facts, convincingly established by evidence,
appeal with peculiar force TO travellers and
sojourners in malarous districts.

BBAUTIFY Your FARM.-It is y great
mistake to suppose that money spent in
reasonably improving place is thrown
away. 1t may be doubted whether there
is any more direct way of increasing its
pecuniary value. Certainly its market
value will depend very much upon its
outward appearance. Tasteful and well
painted buildings, well-arranged gar
dens with neat fences, shade trees proper
ly disposed, good farm fences and clean
ly kept fields will set off farm to great
advantage and make an amazing differ
ence when it comes to be sold. And If
it be not sold, these things will add won
derfully to the enjoyment of its possessor,
il he be not blind TO everything but the
dollar. Every man, too, owes it to the
community in which he is living, to con.
tribute to the general reputation and
public enjoyment by making his sur
roundings AS attractive rs possible. A
measure Of time and expense should be
devoted by every one to the making of
his farm and his home more beautiful
year BY year.

The Acme of Perfection.

Constant and unremitting exercise of
superior genius has developed in the New
American Self-Threading Sewing Machine"
improvements well worthy of the attention
of every one interested in Sewing Machines
and mechanical perfection. Self-threadng
and self-regulating tensions are found inesti-
mable to the operator, and the rapidly in
creasing demand for them fully demonstrates
their superiority over other machines. We
advice those who contemplate purchasing
to call or correspond with their office, ia

assistants are always in attendance. Circu-
lars and price-lists sent free on application.

A A + TO THE PUBLIC.

For many years we have made two medI-
cines suited to the ailments of a vast class OF
sufferers. Thousands of cures have been
made by them, and, in fact the word failure
could not be coupled with them. But with
in the last two years counterteits of our
medicines have sprung up, dangerous in
their close imitation of our Trade Mark. 70
secure the people we have placed upon each
genuine box of Holloway's Ointment the
fac smile Of the signature of our agent, Mr..
Jos. Haydock. To counterfeit is felony.
We shall relentIcssly pursue any one who
initiates this with the utmost vigor of the
law. We most earnestly beg that the great
mass of the American people will aid us in
our efforts to protect their health, and help
us in Our task of bringing these most UNI
principled men to the bar of justice. Uni
formly refuse to purchase medicines puI-
porting to be ours unless Mr.. JOS. Haydock's
signature is attached to each box of pills or
pot of ointment, and the end will soon be
teached.

SULPHUR FOR SCARLET FEVER.

DR.. Henry Pigeon writes to the London
Lancet as follows: "Ihe marvellous sue
cess which has attended my treatment OF
scarlet fever by sulphur induces me to let
nv medical brethren know of my plan, so
that they may be able to apply the same
remedy without delay. A. the cases in
which / used it were very we'll marked, and
the epidermis IN the arms in each case came
away like the skin of a snake. The follow
ing was the exact treatment fOlloWedm each
case: Thoroughly annoint the patient twice
daily with sulphur ointment give five to
ten grains of sulphur in a little jam three
times a day. Sufficient sulphur was burned,
twice daily Ton Goals on a shOvel), to fill the
room with the fumes, and, of course. was
thoroughly inhaled by the patient. Under
this mode of treatment each case improved
Immediately, and none were over eight days
in making a complete recovery, and firmly
believe in each it was prevented from spread
ing by the treatment adopted. One case
was in q large school. Having had a large
experience in scarlet fever last year and this,
! feel some confidence in my w Judgment.
and l nm of opinion that the very mildest
cases | ever saw do not do half so we'll as
bad cases do by the sulphur treatment, and
as far as | can Judge, sulphur is as near a
specific for scarlet fever as pOSsible.'

Roach's Case Given to the Jury.

ROach's Case Given Il the Jury.
Our special reporter at Hamilton tel
egraphs as follows, at 8 o'clock last
night:
The closing scenes of the Roach muir.
der trial were witnessed to-day with
undated interest. The most profound
feeling has been manifested all through
the trial and the court house has been
we'll filled at all times when the court
WAS in session. The State was repre-
sented by District Attorney b. X. Da-
Wis, assisted by Judge c. j. Lansing, of
Eureka. The defense was ably SON
Quoted by ex-District Attorney Barker.
Some immaterial witnesses were alb.
sent, and at the beginning of the trial
the State asked for a continuance.
This was strenuously objected to by
the defense and the Ease was allowed
to proceed. There was a great pre-
ponderance Of testimony against the
prisoner, though he succeeded in
showing that there IA some provoca.
ton for the killing. Counsel for the
prisoner admitted hat his client was
possibly guilty of manslaughter, but
nothing worse than that. At $3.50
O'Clock the able arguments of counsel
had been concluded, when Judge Cole.
In a clear and impressive manner, pro-
ceeded to charge the jury, defining the
various grades of murder, manslaugh-
ter and justifiable homicide with
marked ability and impartiality. Pre-
cisely al 4 o'clock P. NJ. the officer was
sworn and the jury retired to deliberate
on their verdict. They have now been
out Cur hours and nothing has yet
beenN eard from them. 1t is the al
most universal opinion OF those who
have attended the trial from its incep-
ton that they will fail to agree. In
any event a new trial is deemed quite
probable.
