a most perfect nervine will be found. By
simply bathing your child and rubbing

times a day, with small doses taken in.
ternally, you will be surprised how
quickly it will bring about natural, re.
ireshing sleep, and that, too, without any
dosing or poisinous drugs, which only
deaden the senses without curing the
difficulty. The Curative Is equally good
for grown persons, for all nervous aifec-

How A Doc LEARNED THE DIFFER
EscE BETWEEN A BEE AND A FLY.-A
grocer on Main street yesterday placed
on the sidewalk 10 front Of bis store a
sugar hogshead which he had just emp.
tied. The adherihg sweets attracted
myriads OF flies and q few honey-bees,
which seemed to think they had found a
bonanza. A vagabondish dog was lying
down in the shade Of the hogshead and
was pestered much by the flies, which
found the dogs nose good place
10 roost after they had filled
themselves with sugar. After the
dog had wearied himself by his Intellectual
snaps at the flies, he buried his nose be-
tween his paws and took the annoyance
philosophically. At length a bee came
humming around him, aud being bigger
game the dog concluded 10 go for it, and
watching his opportunity snapped at 1t
and caught it in his mouth. Then
be made Il sudden spring TO his feet
as 1.-The had thought Of something that
he had TO do in hurry, and his hair
all over him raised on end as II he had
been electrified. Then he pranced around
for moment shaking his head frautical-
J. a. II he were worrying a rat. A little
black object dropped from his mouth,
which be looked at inquiringly for brief
instant, and thea started off in haste to
see man around the corner, bowling
dismally as he went.

A SCARCITY OF IoE PRoPHEsIED.-If
the present hot spell should prove to be
OF long duration it ia prophesied there
will be a scarcity Of ice. Even now the
demand ia such that tue dealers will soon
be Obliged 10 transport the crystal blocks
from the East. The mild temperature
which prevailed in this part Of the coun.
try was disastrous TO the storers, who
will have to depend for the remainder OF
the season on the crop gathered 10 Maine
and others Of the Eastern States. Brew.
ers, hotel keepers and butchers are the
largest consumers. However great may
be the scarcity Of ice in this city the
price will not be advanced, as the rates
fixed at the beginning Of the season are
invariably adhered to throughout the
summer months.
