SINGULAR CASE.
A Negro Man Passes for Years for
u Woman.

A negro man was arrested by the police
at Memphis, on the 10th, who has lived
10 the city number Of years as a woman
and served as a house servant in num-
Der Of families without being detected.
His makeup as woman was 30 perfect
as to leave no room for suspicion that he
was otherwise. The police refuse to tell
how they came to drop on him." but
when they approached him on the sub
iect, he claimed to be q hermaphrodite,
but after arrest a medical examination
was had, resulting in the discovery Of
nothing Of the kind, but, on the contrary,
perfectly developed male. As soon as
the truth was ascertained, he acknowl-
edged the deception, saying he found 1t
easier to get employment as q woman,
He also tells startling stories OF his Ca
reer in the guise Of a woman, duplicating
several male citizens whose names are
withheld, as It Is believed he concocted
the stories in order TO avoid prosecution.
The CAGE is precisely similar to the one
discovered here two years ago, In which
Frances Thompson, a negro man who
gave testimony before the congressional
committee as 4 woman, claiming 10 have
been outraged by policeman during the
Memphis riots 10 1865, was discovered to
be fully developed man.

The I.aboratory Of the system.

The stomach Is the laboratory OF the sys'
TEN, In which certain mysterious processes
are constantly going on. These result In
the production OF that wonderful yiyifying
agent the blood, which in state ofhealth
rushes laden with the elements Of vitality
to the remotest parts OF the system. But
when ,the stomach Is semi.pataly1ed by
dyspepsia, blood manufacture is carried on
imperlectly. the circulation grows thin and
sluggish, and the system suffers in conse-
quence. Moreover, indigestion reacts upon
the liver and bowels, rendering the first
sluggish and the latter couStipated. The
brain also suffers by sympathy, and sick
headaches, sleeplessness' and nervous
symptoms are engendercd. Hostetter's
stomach Bitters reforms this state OF things,
gives permanent tone and regularity to the
stomach and Its associate organs, the bow
els and liver, and insures complete nour.
ishment and increased vlgor Of the system.
Il Is the most popular as well as the most
efficient anti.dyspeptic and tonic In Ameri'
