In our style of climate, with its sudden
changes of temperature, rain, wind and
sunshine often intermingled in single
day,-it is no wonder that our children,
friends and relatives are so frequently
taken from us by neglected colds, half
cause. A bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup kept about your home for immedf-
ate use will prevent serious sickness, a
large doctors bill, and perhaps death, by
the use of three or four doses. For cur
ing Consumption, Hemorrhages, Pneu-
mOnia, Severe Coughs, Group or any dis
ease of the Throat or Lungs, its success is
simply wonderful, as your druggist will
tell you. German Syrup is now sold in
every town and village on this continent.

A New System of Storm Predictions.

Mr.. Richard Mansill, of Rock Island,
ILL.,, has for several years been testing a
new meteorological system, his theory
being that certain relations of the plan
nets lead to disturbances in our atmos-
phere, producing storms, and that as
the astronomical knowledge is already
gained, it is a simple matter to foretell
meteorological changes His predictions
for 1877 were all fulfilled, the dates sell
dom varying more than forty-eight hours.
His chart for this year gives the last dis
turbing date at May 20, which was about
the middle of the recent heavy rain. The
remaining storm dates for this year are as
follows For June-the Sth, 18th to
18th, 24th or 18th and Both; for July
the I'd to 4th, 18th to 18th, 22d aud 24th
to Both; for August the 10th and 18th,
18th, 22d and Both; for September-the
9th, 9th to 18th, 18th to 18th and Both;
for October-the I'd, 10th to 18th, 18th,
oath, 10Th or Both; for November-the
9Th to 10th, 18th and 2Sth; for December
the 9TH, 10th, 18th, 22d and 18th.
The basis of Mr.. Mansill's new theory may
thus be briefly stated The planets are
governed by universal reciprocating
(electric) force, or currents that undulate
between all bodies of matter, regulating
their densities, volumes, motions and dis
tances from each other; and they go
through change of volume, density and
motion at about the times of their perihe-
lion and aphelion passages through
these electric currents the sun and planets
are convulsed and agitated at those times.
Earthquakes, tornadoes, electric (ground)
currents, etc., are produced at these per-
iods; also, at the times of the occurrence
of Interruptions of these electric currents
by planetary conjuctions- particularly the
inferior and superior conjunctions of Venus
and Mercury, the oppositions of the prin-
cipal planets, and the longitudinal conjunc-
tion of the planets, the perigees and apo
gees of the moon, etc.-Philddelphia
