Fat Man Made Happy-Loses 81 lbs.

IKATTVILIE. Ala, July NUh, 1873.
Botanic MEDICINE Co.. Buffalo. N. Y:
Ge"tl.mea-About three months ago COM
menced using your "Anti-Fat," at which time
my weight was 2l9 pounds. By following your
directions carefully, have succeeded in re-
ducing my weight to 15S pounds. This is all
very satisfactory and pleasant; but just pre-
vious to my commencing the use of your med
icine, had purchased two suits of fine clothes
at high price, and find, to my dsmay, that
they are entirely useless to me now. When
put one OF my coats on, my friends tell me it
looks like coffee-sack on bean-pole, and
when ! put the pants Orwell, description
fails. My object in writing is to ascertain
whether you have not, in connection with
your medicine business, an establishment
where your patrons, similarly situated, could
exchange these useless garments for others
that would tit. think you ought to have
something of the kind, as it would be an in
ducement for many to use the Anti-Fat, who
now object to using it, III consequence of the
loss they would sustain in throwing aside val
liable garments. just turn this matter over
in your mind. A "Clothing Exchange" is
what you want in connection with your Anti
Fat business. Yours truly, GEORGE BOYD.

CuriOsities OF Yellow Fever.

YELLOW FEVER is mysterious and
in many respects an incomprehensi-
BILE disease. The few general facts
that seem TO have been learned
about it, after close and varied OBJ
servation, are not infrequently contra
dicted by new experience. One of its
widely supposed peculiarities is that it
cannot live at certain elevations, $500
feet above sea-level being sufficient, it
is thought, to exclude it completely.
Yet, long before Cortez invaded Mex
leo, the natives of the country suffered
terribly from an epidemic which was,
beyond all rational doubt, identical
with what is now known as yellow fe-
yer. This epidemic-it was called
nsatlazahuGtl prevailed repeatedly,
with great virulence and mortality,
during the sixteenth and eighteenth
centuries, on the table lands of Mexico,
1900 to 1890 feet above the sea. If it
has ragged at that height it may rage at
an equal height again. and thus the
favorite and now universally accepted
theory is overthrow. 1t is surprising
how very little is known of the yellow
fever, as to its symptoms, consequences,
general course and treatment, for
while it has been recognized only
about 200 years as q distinctive dis
ease, it has been fearful scOurge at
least since the beginning of the if
teenth century. 1t used to be called
the plague, and it is little less hideous
and destructive than that frightful pes
thence, now happily confined to the hot
and filthy East.
Although yellow fever is regarded as a
very fatal disease, q great many people
do recover from it, and where there is re-
covery tits usually complete, and the pa
tient is not, as too often happens in the
case of those suffering from other fe-
vers, an ailing man afterward. An
old surgeon in the United States Navy,
who had on more than one occasion to
fight this dreadful malady, tells of q
remarkable recovery which came un-
der his notice. Accommodation being
very limited on board q fever-stricken
ship, he desired that q patient whose
condition seemed quite hopeless should
be laid in one of the boats which hung
from the davits. The man had sunk
into insensibility, and attention being
urgently demanded for cases less des-
perate, he was left during the night to
his fate. Meanwhile, . terrific thun-
derstorm, with deluge of rain, came
on, which latter fell upon the patient
in the boat like q tremendous shower
bath. When they went to look 1T him
next morning he had come to his
senses. was wonderfully better, and
from that hour began to recover.-Bos-

The Best and Most Economical

Housekeepers are giving the cheap, adulter-
ated baking powders a "wide BERTH" and
why: Because experience has taught them
that an absolutely pure, full strength, full
weight article, such as DooIEY's YEAST Pow
DER, which never fails to produce light, whole
some and nutritious biscuits, rolls, mullins,
wafiies, and griddle cakes of all kinds, is by
far the cheapest ard most economical.

r-As a flesh producer, one pound Of
eggs is equal to one pound of beef. A
hen may be calculated to consume
one bushel of corn yearly, and to lay
twelve dozen or eighteen pounds of
eggs. This is equivalent to saying
that three and one-tenth pounds OF
corn will produce, when fed to hen,
ono pound of eggs. A pound of pork
on the contrary requires about five
and One-tenth pounds of corn for its
production. When eggs are twenty
four cents dozen and pork ten cents
a pound, we have bushel of corn fed,
producing 81. 88 worth of eggs and $1.O5
of pork. Judging from these facts,
eggs must be economical in their pro-
duction and in their eating, and espc-
cially fit for the laboring man in re-
placing meat-Egchange.

The First California Woman Lawyer.

AS WILL be remembered by many,
the bill granting women the right to
practice law in this State was passed
near the close of the last session of the
Legislature; and so near did it come to
being slowed away in the Governors
capacious pockets, that his official sig
nature was not attached thereto until
within two minutes of midnight of the
last day of the session. Although many
friends of the measure, in and out of
the Legislature, labored earnestly for
the bill, its passage, and especially its
final approval by the Governor, were
no doubt due to the personal efforts of
Mrs. Clara s. Foltz, a lady law student
of this city, at that time well advanced
in her readings, and who had deter
mined upon the profession of law as a
means of honorable livelihood. With
the passage of the bill the lady entered
upon her readings with renewed zeal.
Possessing a remarkably retentive
memory, coupled with intellectual
breadth and ready comprehension
and natural taste for abstruse subjects,
her progress, as might have been ex-
pected, has been rapid and thorough.
In fact, but few male students have
been able to accomplish like proficien-
cy in SO short q period. And when the
fact is taken into consideration that
Mrs. Foltz has family of five small
children to care for, and for most of
the time she has done her work unas-
sisted, and occasionally has been obliged
to take to the lecture-field as means
of piecing out her meager income, it
will be generally conceded that she is
justly entitled to the honors just con-
ferred on her by our District Court, in
admitting her to the bar of said court
as full-hetlged attorney. The COM
mittee appointed to examine her con-
sisted of some of our first lawyers, who
subjected her to a thorough test of her
legal knowledge, and who unanimous
ly certified to her entire fitness for ad-
vancement. Mrs. Foltz is the first
woman admitted to the bar of this
State.-Sa's Jose (Cal.) Mercury.

The Rev. George F. Herrick writes
from London to the President of the
University of Vermont declining the
degree of Doctor of Divinity conferred
at the last Commencement. He con-
siders that the degree properly repre-
sents some special work done outside
of the ordinary work of minister, and
thinks that it would be inappropriate
as applied to himself.

The Garbage Question,

Since the yellow fever excitement began
the garbage question has been considerably
discussed in the city, and frequent COM
plants have been lodged with the authori-
ties respecting the manner in which the
garbage and ashes are mixed, contrary 10
the ordinance. e
To remedy the matter, the policemen
were directed to notify all housekeepes 10
be particular in keeping their garbage and
ashes separated; and similar directions were
given to the drivers of the garbage carts
but still the nuisance was unabated
Citizens blamed the Street Cleaning
Department, and the STRENGTHENING De-
partment blamed the housekeepers whilo
the Sanitary officers complained of both.
This morning, however, there was q tesk
case before the Police Court, and Judge VIII
son, IN giving his decision, stated that tim
ordinance did not make it an ofiense for thu
garbage collectors to mix the garbage and
rubbish, but had reference to the manner
in which housekeepers should dispose Of
their of1al. The prisoner, garbagewagon
driver, was accordingly dismissed and the
officers directed to arrest the housekeepew
who were found violating the ordinance.

A. T. Dean, son of DR.. Dean, of the U. s.
Navy, and James A. Robinson, of Pitts
burg, Pa, both guests at the Trego Hotel,
got into difficulty in private room,
where number of other young men were
gathered, and Mr.. Robinson slapped Mr..
Dean in the face with his open hand. Dean
sent challenge to Robinson, which was
promptly accepted. Mr.. G. M. Pendleton,
of Berkley Springs, acted as second for Mr..
Dean and Mr.. Harry Brown, of Baltimore,
as the second for Mr. Robinson.
About o'clock on Sunday evening the
parties all repaired to secluded grove, near
the Springs, and at the word both princi-
pals fired simultaneously Mr.. Solomon's 8

"After considerable delay in collecting his
people Moses came from Wenatochi to
Priests Rapids. The conference took
place yesterday and this morn
ing the Indians promised to
look up and deliver the murderers of
the Perkins family, also the stock and other
property that the Columbias have taken
into their neighborhood. Moses showed
that he had worked hard and successfully
to preserve the peace last year and this. The
Indians asked for reservation comprising
the country north of Priests Rapids and
lying within the big bend of the Columbia,
the large number of the Columbia Indians
who fish from the mouth of the Umitilla
to the Spokane signifying desire
for this reservation. l will forward
their formal request with my recommenda-
ton. This proposition coming from so
many Indians will think, lead to solu-
ton of the troubles here satisfactorily to
the Indians and citizens and will not be of
material cost to the Government.
