The Stepping Stone 70 Health


The acquisition of vital energy is
the stepping stone to health. When
the system lacks vitality, the various
organs flag in their duty, become
chrnnicnlly Irregular. and disease is
eventually instituted. To prevent
this unhappy state Of things, the de-
b'lltatcd system should be built up
by he use Of that iuimitahlc tonic.
Hostcttcr's Stomach Bitters which
invlgorates the digestive organs, AMI
lnsures the thorough conversion of
food into blood of a nourishinc quail
lty, from wheAce every muscle, nerve
and fiber acquire unwontcd supplies
OF vigor, and the whole system expe-
rlences the beneficial effect. Appe-
tite returns, the system is refreshed
by healthiul slunber, the nerves
grow strong and calm, the despon.
dency begotton of chronic Indigestion
and an uncerta ain state of health dis
appears, and that sallow appearance
OF the skin peculiar to habitual inya.

energy, is replaced by moro bocom.

Shutting Up Cattle a Blunder.

We have heard that a big scuf.
ae was going on in our Legisla-
tive Halls about the shutting UP
Of the cattle, now roaming and
gamboling, at liberty in our in
commensurate prairies. This we
would call the most egregious of
the blunders our Legislators are
doing every day if they should
pass such a bill.
They have enough work on
hand now in reforming the hui
man race, without trying to re,
form or disturb the equanimity of
those poor defenccless animals
They need no reform for the time
being. and wished to be left alone

We have alluded very Otter
to the negligence of our farmers
in raising as much as they could
Of the Porcine family. The soil
of this Parish is admirably
adapted to the raising Of hogs.
Every farmer can raise the pork
needed for home consumption and
have some left to spare, for the
non.tiller of the soil, which he
could afford to sell for 5 cents.
We will here show our farmers
what can be done in that new
industry, in our parish. In 1874
Mr.. Adrien Nunez, our actual
Representative in our Legisla-
ture, and most successful farmer
our parish, marked that year
$40 head Of pigs j; about as many
head of cattle, calves, and colts !:
made IS hds. of sugar and as
much molasses, he shipped to
New Orleans Al head of 2 year
old hogs which he did not need
home use, netting $500; he
took them out of the marsh and
1rove them on board of the steam
boat : No work or trouble at all
raise hogs in this parish. Go in
or it farmers and ask Mr.. A.
luncz how he works : it would
AXE us too much space in this
ssue, to explain Mr.. A. Nunez'
'rocess: we will explain it at some
Their time.

A man in lowell, Mass, had a
house but no wife to take care OF
it. In a talk with a friend a bar.
gain was made uuder which he
was to pay the friend $3.50 for
procuring one. The broker in.
troduced him to a New Hampshire
girl, a marriage was made, and
the man comedies that it was a
lucky match for him ; but he re
fused to pay the broker because
that gentleman saw fit to talk
about the matter. The broker
has sued for the money, the lower
court has decided against him, and
the case will go to the Superior
