Icebern Of the Antarctic.

Sir C. Wyville Thompson recently
gave . lecture In Glasgow upon the Pc
culiarities in the physical conditions OF
the Antarctic regions- In the months
Of January and February. 1874. the
Challenger was cruising in Antarctic
waters. and tho observations made at
that time furnished the speaker with
the materials for his address. The Pc
culiAr conformation Of the icebergS fill
ing the sea south Of latitude sixty De
grees was the subject Of particular dis
cussion. The bergs encountered BY the
Challenger were universally table
topped and perfectly fat, with a COW
ering Of dazzlingly-white snow. Some
Of the larger ones were n or two
miles in length. and had evidently pre-
served their original length. The Az
erage height Of these bergs was about
two hundred feet Their sides were
blue, the pale tint of the upper part
deepening gradually to the base. When
viewed closely, the face Of the berg
was seen to be traversed with a delicate
ruling of faint blue lines, separated
more widely a. they neared the top.
Sir Wyville deems the evidence near
" conclusive that these icebergs have
their origin on land which is compare
lively low and fiat, and which Is Dor
| derpd for q considerable distance by
shallow water.
II conceive" he says. that the upper
part Of one Of these icebergs, including
by far the greater part Of its bulk. and
eliminating In the portion exposed
above the surface of the sea, was crea-
ted by the piling up Of successive Jay
ers Of snow during a period, amounting
perhaps to centuries, during which the
ice cap was slowly forcing itself over
the low land and out to sea, over a long
extent Of gentle slope. until it reached
q depth of considerably beyond two
hundred fathoms. The lower specific
weight of the ice then caused an up
ward strain, which at length overcame
the cohesion of the mass, and portions
were rent of and flOated away. If this
be the true history Of the formation of
these icebergs, the absence Of all land
debris in the portion exposed above the
surface of the sea is readily understood.
II any such exist, 1t must be confined to
the lower part of the berg-tO that part
which has moved upon the floor of the

Come now and Let us ReAsOn IORether.
Why do people 81 frequently say to
DIR. Pierce, Il suppose your Golden
Medical Discovery cures every thingI"
Because it has been the practice OF
knavish charlatans to manufacture
worthless nOstrums and attempt tOdupe
the ignorant and credulous by recon-
mending them to cure every form of
disease. To such al extent has this
been practiced that it is no wonder that
many have acquired prejudices against
all advertised remedies. ButDr. Pierce
does not advertise his standard prepa-
ratiOns as ~"cure-alls." does not claim
that they will perform miracles, but
simply publishes the fact that they
have been developed as specifics for Ger
tain forms of disease for which he
recommends them. after having tested
their efficacy in many hundred cases
with the most gratifying success. II il
q fact known to every well informed
physician that many single remedies
possess several different properties
Quinine. for instance. has a tonic quail
ity, which suggests its use in cases Of
debility; an anti-periOdic, by which II
is t~fficaciOus in ague; and q fetrifuge
property, which renders it efficaciOusin
cases Of fever. The result Of its adj
ministratiOn will also vary with the
quantity given and the circumstances
under which it is employed. So. like

or bloOd-Cleansing properties Of the
highest order. BY reason of these two
prominent properties it cures two elias
ses of diseases. First. those of the
respiratory organs, as throat. bronchial
| and lung affections, chronic coughs and
asthma, and second, diseases of the
blood and glandular system, in which
| affections all skillful physicians employ
| alternatives. as in eases Of blOtches, erup-
tons, ulcers. swellings, tumors, alb
scesses. and in tOrpOr Of the liver or

combination Of properties. suggested in
cases Of pulmonary consumption, yet
you need not take it expecting it will
