An unknown man was found in the Ohio

mill, about 10 o'clock this morning, by
Barney McClang. The body was taken to
Habig's undertaking establishment on Sixth

A vexed Question Answered.

What shall do to get rid of all this flesh f'' is
the question that has b en- asked again and again
OF physicians without receiving an intelligent re-

dispositions can be summed up in a single sen
tence: Be content you are not lean, and starve
yourself-a course of treatment that will never
cure obesity, as thousands who have tried it will

lately. He owned Cambridge House. Picca-

and great deal of London property. He
succeeded a brother who became Roman
Catholic, but died childless, of whom his
father had said that he would give any

but John preferred playing the organ in a

and stables to the last.

The main cause of nervousness is indiges-

carry off all the poisonous and waste matter

A good deal of stir was made in Paris,
some time ago, about legacy which was
said, truly or not, to have been left to GAM
beta. Now it is Garibaldi's turn, accord
ing 10 the Genoa Journal, which says that
it knows, on excellent authority, that a
Frenchman who has recently died has
made Garibaldi and his two sons, Menotti
and Rccioti, the heirs to his property,
which is very considerable. He also leaves
at the same time important legacies to sew
eral of the leaders of the Republican party
in France. Roman notary was charged
by the testator with the care of communi-
eating the provisions of the will to the
heirs.
