THE SUBSTITUTION OF
BRANDY FOR ALCOHOL,
the use of the True Ja-
maica Ginger, of their
own selection and impOr-
tation. its combination
with choice aromatics, as
devised and originated by
DR.. Sanford, placed this
preparation in dctudlner-
u so far ahead of anything
before compounded that
Notwithstanding the most
bitter opposition from the
trade, its sales in New
England now exceed that
of all others combined.
The second year of its
manufacture its sale ex-
ceeded the previous year
by over Wty:tiUe thousand
bottles. 1t is manufac-
tured on a scale simply
enormous. Two thous-
and gallons are always
kept made long in ad-
vance of consumption, by
which it acquires a de-
licious flavor and brill
liant transparency. Eve
ry improvement in labor
saving apparatus is a
dOpted,. so as to permit
the use of costly materi-
ais and yet retain a profit.
The bOttling machine is
alone able to fill taOO thOltS
and four hundred bottles
per hour. From this
brief statement it will b
seen that Messrs. WEEKS
& POTTER have entered
upon the manufacture of
SanfOrd's Jamaica Ginger
in a manner that must in
time secure for them the
enormous trade in this
article. Its elegant fla
vor, great merit, and low
price should be tested
once by those in need ola
family medicine before
allowing themselves to
be induced, by misrepre-
sentatiOn, to buy others.
Insist upon having what
you call for-SANFoRD's
JAMAICA GINGER.

Oatmeal.

In Great Britain, children of all ranks
are raised on oatmeal diet alone, be-
cause it causes them to grow strong and
beautiful, and no better food can be
found for them. 1t is also quite as de-
sirable for the student as for the labor
er, and for the delicate lady and her
Woodworking sister indeed, all classes
would be greatly benefited 10y it's use,
and dyspepsia, with all its manifold an
noyances, can be kept at Il distance.
Oatmeal is more substantial food, it is
said, than veal, pork or lamb, giving as
much, or more mental vigor, while its
great desideratum consists in ones not
becoming weary of it, for it is as well
come for breakfast or tea as is wheat OF
graham bread. 1t can be eaten with
syrup or butter as hasty-pudding, or
with cream and sugar, like rice. 1t is
especially good for young mothers, upon
whose nervous forces too great demand
has been made, and they lose the equi-
librium of system and become depressed
aud dispirited. Oatmeal requires to be
cooked slowly, and the water should be
boiling hot when il is stirred in.

TIE Richmond Enquirer, Which s'is>
pended publication on November 2s' has
been q money. losing concern since the
war. Although it was the most Time
honored journal in the south, having
been founded in 1904 by Thomas Richie,
the hester of the press, its venerable
prestige would not hold up under the
push OF papers OF less fame. 1t has cham
ged owners seven or eight times in the
last ten years, and in that period it Is I'M
derstood to have sunk $l00,OOV,
but none OF the unluekY pro-
prietors took it so to heart as
the last one, Robert William Baylor,
who is supposed to have committed sui
eide under the pressure OF newspaper
debts. MIR. Baylor bought the Enquire
two months ago, but in a few weeks he
became depressed in spirits and mysteri-
ously left Richmond on the 18th instant
for Kentucky, and has not been in his Of
lice since. 1t appears that the last time
he was seen was on the Goth instant, at
Milford, not tar from Richmond, on his
way to Washington. He told friends that
he had presentimelt he would not re>
turn to Richmond alive, and in conycr'
sation with acquaintance, he spoke OF
his embarrassment, and showed a box
OF morphine pills and Derringer. Bay
lor had lived IN Norfolk previous to pur'
chasing the Enquirer, and was well
known and esteemed. He was about 81
years OF age. G, Watson James, the
editor OF the paper and part proprietor
says that he has suspended publication
until the mystery conld be fully inyesti'
gated, and wrote no valedictory. But
the Enquirer will hardly be revived. De-
tectives are now searching for the body
OF the unfortunate Mr.. Baylor.

In regard to his Southern policy we
quote the following editorial from the
St. Louis Republican, which gives a con-
densed statement of the beneficial results
which haye followed:

policy, he says, has been subjected TO
severe and varied CRITICISM; but II was
In his Judgment, most in harmony with
the constitution and with the genus oil

Mr.. Hayes declares it to be his design to
protect the lately emancipated race with
all the methods and measures at his dis
posal, and he urges on the whites OF the
South the wisdom and justice of humane
and liberal local legislation with respect

lie declares that the Southern policy was
no less constitutional duty than need,

self-government and national harmony

the wisdom and propriety of that policy
he submits it to the verdict Of his country

Mr., ADAM BADEAU, United States
Consul General at London, in despatch
dated the 10th of November refers to
the annual report of the Consul at Mans
chester, aud invites particular attention
to his remarks on the influx of workmen
from the United States to various points
in Great Britain, whether as carpenters
to Manchester, masons to London and
Glasgow or miners to Derbyshire, In con-
sequence OF q notion spreading among
American mechanics that the labor
market on the other side of the
Atlantic is better than in the
United States. Many are thus Induced
to emigrate, confident Of procuring
rpeady and remunsrative employment,
and the result Ia that, unless the me.
ehanic has previously obtained contract
insuring him employment, he finds him>
self without either money or work. His
condition rapidly becomes worse, and he
Ii obliged to part with his clothing in
order to obtain food and lodging. until
finally he appears at the nearest United
States Consulate half starved, and with
hardly sufficient raiment to cover his
nakedness, begging to be sent back TO
the United States, and Is surprised and
indignant when informed that no funds
are In the consul's hands for such pur>
pose. Whatever may be the claims OF
the applicant for relief, there can be no
doubt Of the need for it, and no doubt
that II given 1t will afford only temporary
conclusion, az there is an utter improba
hllity of the stranger obtaining any kind
Of employment. The Consul General
urges the Importance of bringing before
American mechanics the improvidence OF
their course In seeking work from stran>
gers and at = distance from home, with
out having positive assurance that they
will be successful, and especially to warn
such persons that the consular officers of
the United States are not authorized TO
grant them any relief whatever.
