Old Gordon and the Ladies'"

John Gordon, who died near Turriff,

had attained the remarkable age Of
1872. All the travellers who CHANGED TO

we're uniformly directed by the land

 Dr. Schenk, of Frankfort. on the Main, has written pomphlet prov ing to the satisfaction of all good Germans that the only genuine and original inventor of the telephone was Philip Refs, who was born at Geinhausen, Cassel, Januafy ', 1884. Prof. Newcomb says: ''So small is the earth, compared with the celes tial spaces, that if one should shut his eyes and fire at random in the air, the chance of bringing down a bird would be better than that of a comet of any kind striking the earth"
 Mr. Benedict, of the New York University, corrected the historians the other night at a meeting of the Historical Society. It was on liar lem Heights, he says, and not on Harlem Plains, that the revolution ary troops met and defeated the British forces.

 The Frost Metcalf contest has as sumed rather a novel aspect. If the committee on elections should now hold that Mir. Richard Graham Frost is not entitled to his seat from the Third Missouri District, it would simultaneously declare Mr. Richard Graham Frost to be purjurer in sew eral divers and sundry particulars. The elaborate affidavit filed with the committee by Mir. Joseph Politzer, Mir. Frost's attorney, certainly leaves no sort of middle ground or other al formative. IfMr. Frost swears to the truth, Mr. Metcalf has not shadow of a right to hls seat. If MT. Met calf is entitled to nis seat, Mir Frost swears falsely. We do not know how the committee will act, but we do know that there is not even. politi- cal antagonist in the Third Missouri District whe would dare to question R. Graham Frost's statement under oath. In fact those who know him prefer the simple word of R. Graham Frost to the oath ofmany, If not most men. Nor do we in the least doubt that Mir. Frost was swindled out of his seat by series or extraordinary frauds. ashington Post.

BOSTON, Feb. B, 1871. II. R. STEVENS, Esq.
 Dear Sir,-About one year since I found myself in a feeble condition from general debility. Vegetine was strong ly recommended to me by friend who had been much benefited by it's use. Iprocured the article, and. after using several bottles, was restored to health, and discontinued it's use. I feel quite confident that there is no medicine superior to 1t for those complaints for which it is especially prepared, and would cheeriully recommend it to those who feel that they need some thing to restore them to perfect health.

MIR. H. R. STEVENS.
 In 1872 your yegetine was recom- mended tonne, and, yielding to the per- suasions of Il friend, l consented tc try it. At the time 1 was suffering iroW general debility and nervous pros tration, superinduced by oyerwork and irregular habits. Its wonderful strengthening and curative properties seemed to affect my debilitated system from the first dose; and under it's per- sistent use l rapidly recovered, gaining more than usual health and good feel ing. Since then l have not hesitated to give Vegetine my most unqu llified indorsement. as being safe, sure and powerful agent ill promoting health and restoring the wasted system to new life and energy. Vegetine is the only medicine use; and as long as live 1 never expect to find better.

Apples of Gold in Pictures of
 Silver.


 "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver" When the body becomes diseased, the mind is thereby necessarily infu- enced. National wars, State dissen- tions, neighborhood broils, and fam fly differences, are more frequently than otherwise the result of diseased and disordered constitutions. When the body is suffering, the mind, act ing in sympathy, will become irri- tated and perplexed. When the physical system is In health, the mind perceives things in their true light, and the disposition assumes a very different phase. Nothing more directly tends to destroy the happy, cheerful disposition of a woman, and render her peevish, nervous, and fretful, than a constant endurance of of uterine disorders. The diseases peculiar to woman take away the elasticity and buoyancy of health and reduce her body and mind to a mree wreck. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a real peacemaker in family. No woman suffering from uterine disorders can afferd to be without this remedy. The Favorite Prescription saves unnecessary doc tor bills, prevents divorces, wards of suicides, brings back buoyant, joy ous feelings, restores the woman to health, and her family to happiness. It is sold by all druggists.
