The Rich California Banker.

When it became known that one OF
the richest California bankers had left
the Pacific Coast and transferred his
base Of operations to the New York
Stock Exchange, all the shrewd finan-
ciers watched his course with keen
interest to see how he would succeed.
The result has emphatically proved
the wealthy bankers sagacity. Be-
sides having much wider and more
promising field to operate in, he is
known to have been in several stock
combinations that paid immense prof
its. By the combination method of
operating in stocks Messrs. Lawrence
& Co., Bankers, n. Y, unite orders of
thousands of customers, in different
sums, into one vast capital, and oper-
ate them as mighty whole, dividing
profits pro rata among shareholders
every 80 days. Capital in any amount
from $40 to 800, 900 can be used with
great success in these pools, $25 would
pay 500 profit; $500 would make
S., 900 or 10 per cent. on the stock du-
ring the month. Messrs. Lawrence &
Co.'s new circular (mailed free) gives
" two unerring rules for success" and
full particulars, so that any one can
operate in stocks, and make money.

therein confined on the 22d instant
The Tailor, Mr.. Huse Brewer, was ab-
sent, but the jsilor's wife, the prison
oners thinking they saw a chance of
escape, set fire to the building and
after it had gotten under pretty good
Roadway gave the alarm, expecting
the timid little woman to become so
excited as to throw open the doors,
when escape would be easy. Bui they
were disappointed. When the alarm
was giver,, Mrs. Brewer armed herself
with a revolver, and holding the keys
in her hand, organized a line of buck
cts, passing in a few citizens, and
stood by the door with cooked pistol in
her hand, allowing nothing TO pass
the door but pals of water until the
fire had been extinguished.

Travelling is Extra,HazarGous

If the tourist is unprovided with some medic
inal resource. Changes Of temperature, food
and water of an unaccustomsd or unwholesome
quality. and route that lies in the tropics or
other regions where malaria exists. are each and
all fraught with danger to one who has been i'm
provident enough to neglect remedial safe
guard. The concurrent testimony of many
voyageurs by land and sea establishes the fact
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters enables those
who use it to encounter hazards of the nature re-
ferred TO with impunity; and that, as q medicine
adapted to sndden and unexpected exigencies, it
is peculiarly valuable. Disorders of the liver.
the bowels and the stomach, fever and ague,
rheumatism and nervous ailments, brought on by
exposure, are among the maladies to which
emigrants, travellers and new settlers are most
subject. These and others yield to the action of
the Bitters promptly and completely.

The Morbid Sinner.

An eminent clergyman once said,
that change of stomach and liver
would benefit the morbid sinner al
most as much as change of heart
yet many still attribute an irritable
temper and morose disposition to the
ingenious workings of the devil, while
they are simply the symptoms of dys-
pepsia, torpid liver, constipation, and
general or nervous debility, and are
readily cured by the use of few bot
ties of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and Pleasant Purgative Pei
lets. Some may be persuaded into try
ing other remedies on the plea that
they are "cheaper and "just as
good" but after using few of the Pc
culiar and heterogeneous combina-
tions, they usually prefer to return to
a remedy that has earned q reputation
by reason of its merit. DIR. Pierce's
Family Medicines are prepared from
the choicest extracts, at great expense,
and under the immediate supervision
of a skilful chemist, whose business it
is to know their purity and strength !;
hence the success of these remedies in
overcoming disease.
