The People want Proof.

There is no medicine prescribed by
physicians, Or sold by druggists, that
carries such evidence of its success
and superior virtue as BoscHEE's
GERMAN SYRUP for severe Coughs,
Colds settled on the breast, Consump-
ton, or any disease of the Throat and
Lungs. A proof Of that fact is that
any person afflicted, can get sample
bottle for 10 cents. and try its supe-
rior effect before buying the regular
size at IS cents. 1t has lately been
introduced in this country from Ger
many, and its wonderful cures are
astonishing everyone that use it. Three
doses will relieve, any case. Try it.

THE ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Written for the HERALD.

SHARES in coal gas companies exhi-
bited q downward tendency when
Edison's electric light was so far per-
fected as to lead the public to suppose
it would soon be adopted as substi-
tute for ordinary lighting. A long
time has elapsed since the invention
Of the photograph, without the fulfil
ment Of any Of the captivating pro-
misses Of its practical utility being
realized; this alone might have pre-
vented the panic. if reflection and
reason conld ever alone control panic.
Edison, as is generally known, claims
priority Of discovering, il SO far as
the light is concerned; but / noticed
II paragraph in the Eclectic Magazine
for April 184S, which reads" Mr..
Static is leetpring i'll England on his
new mode Of lighting by electricity.
I'he Literary and Philosophical So
ciety of Sunderland gave a public
soiree last November. (l84O lat which
his mode Of lighting was the principal
attraction" The Newcastle Guardian
says: 1.-The light, which was of as
tonlshing briIliance and beauty, was
placed under an air-tight glass vase.
When the gas was turned down it
sufficiently lighted the spacious build
ing, and gave the closest resemblance
to the great orb of day Of any light
which we ever witnessed. The cleo
trio light was next exhibited in a
vessel of water with equal success"
". II. Bishop in an article entitled
{" A night with Edison" maintains
that the great inventor lacks the
quality Of utilizing bis inventions be-
cause of his redundant amount of
imagination, which runs off all the
time after something new rather than
remain Flooding out the uses of the
principles he has already established.
In certain sense inventions are said
to be the work of their age rather
than of individuals; but they have
generally been a little behind their
age. A new and fruitful idea has
commonly been current in the scien-
tilic world for generation or more
before it has been actualized, and this
for the simple reason that the scientific
men have not had the skill requisite
for successful experiments, aud the
men of practical skill have not had
science enough to recognize and well
come the dawning of any new light.
Thus an invention of prime import,
ance has often lowered long within
reach Of both speculative and prac-
teal men, waiting for that conjunction
Of science and skill without which it
could not assume an available form,
and when it has at length brought
forth, many had approached so near
it and had so distinctly anticipated it
as to claim with entire honesty the
merit Of its inception; mankind, has

applies great idea, while
he in whose brain it originated is

Sudden Changes.

The PROJECTORS of DowN's ELIXIR
frequently hear it remarked by those
not in the trade, that cough medicines
do not sell much during the summer
months. This is q mistaken idea.
The sudden changes to which this
climate is subject at all seasons of the
year, renders it necessary to always
have some reliable cough remedy at
hand. Downs ELIXIR is a sure cure
for Coughs. Colds, and Whooping
Cough, and all Lung Diseases when
taken in season, and one dose, we have
no doubt, has many times prevented
consumption and death. The best
certificate that can be gwen for any
medicine is daily accorded to DowN's
ELIXIR in the fact that it has survived
the storms and tempests of nearly half
a century, and is to-day the most pop
ular with those who have known it
longest. 1t has gained this great fa-
vor with the public entirely on its own
merits, having had less advertising
done for it in the whole time than is
done for some medicines in a single
year. For sale everywhere.
