SPECIAL G0g3CB5,
The Laboratory of the System

The stomach is the labratory of the sys
TEN, in which certain mysterious process
ses arc constantly going on. These result
in the production of that wonderful vivi-
flying agent the blood, which in a state of
health rushes laden with the elements of
vitality to the remOtest parts of the sys-
TEN. But when the blood is semi-para-
lyzed by dyspepsia, blood manufacture is
carried on imperfectly, the circulation
grows thin and sluggish, and the system
suffers in consequence. Moreover, indi-
gestion reacts upoE the liver and bowels,
rendering the first sluggish, and the lat
ter constipated. The brain also suffers
by sympathy, and sick headaches, sleep
lessneSs and nervous symptoms are en-
gendered, HOstetter's Stomach Bittcrs
reforms this state of things, gives perma-
nent tone and regularity to the stomach
and its associate organs, the bowels and
liver, and ensures complete pOurishmcut
and increased vigor of the system. 1T is
the most popular as well as the most eff
cient anti-dyspeptic and tonic in America.

ANOTHER CARGO FOR BRAZIL-THE

TO THE RAILRoADERs.-The schooner
Ida NJ. Eldridge sailed for Brazil last
week with cargo of provisions for
Messrs. p. & II. Collins employees or
the Madeira and Mamore Railroad.
Ever since the MerceGta went out
with its first batch of employees last
winter the Collins Bros have been
experimenting and advising as to the
kind of food best adapted for Amer
lean laborers in that climate. Many
varieties of food were sent on the Mer
cediia and City of Richmond, the
pioneers of the Brazilian expedition,
and notice taken by the accompanying
physicians since their arrival there of
the kind most relished and best adap-.
ted to the health of the workingmen.
So successful have they been in the
choice of diet that at the present time
out of 800 laborers the number at work
daily average about 100. The stock
of provisions that went out on the
Eldridge last week consisted of l25
cases of canned meats, such as turkey,
hams, bologna sausage, etc; 200 bar
rels of flour; 100 gallons of moasses;
10000 pounds of sugar; 10000 pounds
of coffee; 5000 pounds of tobacco;
600 cases of canned vegetables-corn,
succotash, tomatoes, etc; 600 gallons
of vinegar; 70 barrels of white beans;
20 barrels of horniny; 20 barrels of
mackerel; 1000 pounds of rice; 5000
pounds of dried fruits, apples, currants,
blackberries, etc; barrel of oat meal.
Turtles and white fish are caught in
abundance in the Madeira river. where
the colony have their habitation. The
barrel of oat meal was sent AZ exper-
iment. If It keeps, not becoming
mouldy, more will be sent hereafter.
The Mercedita and Richmond took out
among other things lot of fishing
tackle and fowling-pieces and all the
appliances for catching fish and game.
Besides the provisions the Eldridge
took out POO pairs of shoes, 200 pairs
ofleggins for the engineers and 1000
straw bats. A quantity ofrailroad iron
also formed part Of the cargo.-Pha-
