"A Sudden Death.

There is something terrible in the thought of
having our friends stricken down at our side,
without a parting word of endearment or conso-
lation-one moment at our side in the flush of
vigorous life, cheering our hearts with their low
ing sympathy; the next at our feet, pale with
death, deaf to our cries and Needless of our
tears. Every excessively fat person is in instant
danger of such death. Seven-tenths of the
victims of obesity die of heart disease or apo
plexy: Adams Anti-Fat, the only remedy for
obesity, reduces the weight by regulating the
digestion and assimilation Of the food 1t is
perfectly harmless, and its use will insure, in
every instance, a reduction of weight from two
to five pounds week.

Ease Attain2hIe hY the Rheumatic

Yes, although they may despair of relief, it is
attainable by rheumatic sufferers, for there is a
remedy which carries off, by means of increased
activity of the l1idneys-important channels for
blood purifcation-the acrid element to which
pathologists the most eminent attribute the pain
full symptoms-a theory completely borne out
by urinary analysis. The name of this grand
depurent is Hostetter's Bitters, a preparation
likewise celebrated as a remedy for constipation,
which causes contamination of the blood with
the bile-and a certain means of relief in dys-
pepsia fever and ague, and nervous ailments
1t is, perhaps, the finest tonic extant and is
highly recommended as a medicinal stimulant by
distinguished physicians and analysts, who pro-
nounce it to be eminently pure and very bene-
fetal. The press also indorses it.

William Grace.

AS general inquiry of ssWhat is Grace's
SalVe, and who is its originator?" may seem to
be a question worthy of being answered, we
have been induced to give the following brief,
yet truthful account of its history: This salve
IS vegetable preparation, invented in the seven
teenth century by Dr. William Grace, who was
surgeon In King James army, and who from
that time always used it in his professional prac-
tlce, whenever soreness or Inflammation pre-
senteditsef.f As medical agent for the cure of
wounds, it was followed with great success, and
thousands of the veterans that were wounded in
the campaigns of 1888 and 1859 owed to this
salVe the salvation of their lives. Col Richard
Grace, who was King James chamberlain.
introduced this Salve into the royal palace
where 1t was used with the greatest success and
highly esteemed for its virtues in the cure of Sores
At the siege Of Athlone, Col. Grace ordered
1t TO be administered to his compatriots who
were wounded during the memorable day of the
Dattle; andltwas used with such success that the
head surgeon OF the army at Aughrim ordered
Dr Grace to manufacture 100 gross, and dis
tribute it among the hospitals before the battle.
On the sad defeat at Aughrim, after Ginkle's
army took possession of the battle field several
ambulances which had been abandoned by the
cases of the Salve The English surgeons test
ed 1t upon their wounded and ascertained it's
value, and thus were both of the contending
armies befriended by it. Both DR.. William
Grace and Col. Richard Grace died in the cam
palgn of 169l-the former of disease, the latter
killed in the Entertainments of Athlone, with the
flag OF his country wrapped around him, cheer
ing his men on to victory. After the death of
Dr. Grace, the Salve was not used much outside
OF his family, until the rebellion of 1898, when
William Grace, grandfather of the subscriber,
applied its virtues, at the battle of Ross, to his
brave comrades who fell wounded while fight
ing for the rights of their country. This salve
was quite extensively used in certainlocalties of
Ireland, being furnished gratuitously by the
subscribers parents until 1913, when they left
the land of their nativity and came to this
country, bringing with them the secret of the
Salve they received from their ancestors They
continued to make the Salve, as before, for their
nelghbors, free of charge, until the fall of 1861
when the frequent calls for it, and the serious
cases cured by it, induced the subscriber to
bring 1t into more general notice, and to charge
a small price for the article that has received
the recommendation of patriots upon the battle
fields of yore, as well as from persons Of the
present day. - Toronto ADVERTISER, March
9. 1878 ~'*r-.r.

A BOYS Idea Of Bows.

A Norwich teacher was practicing her
youthful class in original composition,
and gave one pupil the subject Boy
to write upon. The subject was to be
treated on in three parts first, what is
it? second, what is it's use? and third,
what is it made of? The lad wrestled
hard for few minutes in desperate per-
plexity, and then wandered up to the
teachers desk, radiant with enthusiasm,
and submitted the following: "A boy
is an animal; his use is to carry in
wood; he is made of bones."- Norauich

reason why Scovn4L's BLOOD AND LIVER SYRUP
is so successful in overcoming scrofulous
and all eruptive complaints is that it en-

rise to them The cause of the evil being thus
removed and the normal purity of the circu-

The Washington Society Woman.

The Washington society woman has
one grand absorbing passiOn-an enthu-
siastic devotion to herself that has made
her stoical on every other subject; she
may have her smiles and her tears, her
joys and her sorrows, but they are not
for others. She adores dress, kneels at
the shrine of Mammon, burns incense
to dear mealy mouthed society, fawns
upon the powerful and elevates her ex-
quisite nose at the knock-kneed, pot
bellied, and weak. She is an audacious,
persevering, pioneering, little body; her
motto is excelsior; and her Alps is the
social ladder. Sooner or later, prOba
bly, later, she will get married to a SEN
timental youth, with well balanced hair
and money; or, to what she would pre-
fer, money, with only septuagenarian
incumbrance. Money, subsidiary to
self, is the supreme object of her life,
and she will secure it-through mar
rage, if she can, but at any rate she
will secure it. Since the days of Baby
lon there have been other careers for
women at capitals than matrimony.-

to the remotest corners of the mold,
and is also a preventive of blow-holes.
Plowshares and other irregular castings,
have been very successfully produced by
this process. They may be forged inc
any shape by blacksmith, and, when
worn out by use, converted into smaller
articles, such as tools, knives, etc.
