INTERMITTENT FEVER is so common IN
the country as scarcely to need comment.
The causes which produce it are such as
cold, irregular living, over exertion, low
spirits, night air, exposure to miasmatic
exhalations, &c, In large cities where
edge tools and agricultural implements are
manufactured, the grinder protects his
lungs from the injurious effect of the dust
flying off the grindstone by wearing a
respirator. The coal miner ere he descends
the shaft provides himself with safety
lamp to guard against fire damp. Now it
is equally necessary for those who are
brought in contact with any of the causes
leading to intermittent fever, to provide
themselves with that we'll known and
highly esteemed remedy against it, the

Hans Sach lived in Nuremburg, Germa-
ny, during the middle ages and was the
master spirit of the celebrated poet guild
of the Meistersaengers. One theme on
which the cobbler bard was wont to expa-
tate, was the supreme necessity of clean
illness of body and purity of life. Had B.
T. Rabbits Best soap existed then, the
poet would have embalmed his name in
the most glowing numbers of his verse, and
B. T. B, would have made a monogram

nected with robbery at Flynn's saloon in

been acquitted and am now free. The
trial lasted all day yesterday; the case was
gwen to the jury this forenoon, and after a
short absence was acquitted. The police
said had been suspected of being thief
for some months" &C., but | am happy
to say that the trial showed the suspicion
to be without foundation. / have been in
very poor health for many months and

cogent Reasons 70 Grand Success

Conspicuous among the highest ex-
amples of success which the present Gen.
fury can show is Rostettcr's Stomach
Bitters. The record of its triumphs over
disease is to be traced in the written
acknowledgements OF thousands who have
experienced its benefcent effects. and the
evidence of its popularity is to be found
in the vast and growing demand for the
article in North and South America,
Mexico, Guatemala, the West Indies.
Australia aud Europe. The reasons for
its unparalleled success are cogent ones.
The accumulated evidence of nearly thirty
years shows that it is certain remedy for
malariai disease. as we'll as its surest pre-
ventive; that it eradicates dyspepsia, con-
stipation liver complaint and nervousness,
counteracts tendency to govt, rheumatism
urinary aud uterine disorders, that it i'm
parts vigor to the feeble, and cheers the
mind while it invigorates the body.
