The NATIONAL Complaint.

Dyspepsia Is the national complaint. Almost
every other man or woman you meet has it,
and the result is that the number of pseudo
remedies for it is as numerous as Pharaoh's
host. They are for the most part worthless.
There is, however, q searching eradicant of
this distressing and obdurate malady, one
whose genuine merits long since raised it to q
foremost place among the staple medicines of
America. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters extir.
pates dyspepsia with greater certainty and
most genial invigorant, appetizer and aid to
secretion. These are not empty assertions, as
thousands Of our countrymen and women who
have experienced its effects are aware, but are
backed up by irrefragable proofs repeatedly
Laid before the public. The Bitters also pro-
healthful stimuls to the urinary organs.

A SCARE OVER A JAGCAR.
The Animal Liberated by q
Tramp out Of Spite, and
Still at Large.

YORK, Pa. May Last night
after the London Circus train had
left Washington and had trayerSed
about thirty miles. full-SiZed Bra
lillian jaguBr, beast more ravenous
and ferocious than a tiger, escaped
from bis cage Un a fiat car aud
bounded into the woods. The train
had stopped to permit another train
to pass. and n tramp, who had Sc
creted himself OIL the car, opened
the cage, allowing the animal its
liberty. About twenty Of his fel-
low-tramps had been previously
elected from the train, and it is sup
posed he committed the act for
spite. One of the circus hands saw
him open the cage, but supposed he
was one of the regular hands.
When the animal escaped, the tramp
jumped from the train, and al
though pursued by ABOUT twenty
men made good his escape. The
Jagnar, was a powerful animal, and
cost 81 400 two years ago. He Was
about 6ve feet long, and naturally
one of the most ferOciouS beasts in
the menagerie. Early this morning
the mangled remains of man were
found near the Baltimore and Poto-
mac Railroad. fifteen miles east of
this place. 1t has not been ascer-
tanned yet whether this is the first
victim of the jaguar Or not. The
people here are much excited, and
have been warned to take all pre-
cautions against an attack. The
propriet6rs offer $500 for the cap.
ture of the beast alive or for proof
of his death. They disclaln any
responsibility for loss OF life OF dam
age so farmers stock which may
ensue, as the escape WAS something
which they could not provide
against.

This week the entire borough has
been shaken up thoroughly. from
centre to clrcumference-and back
again. There is even some danger
that our new city an embryo may
shake TO pieces, from an overdose of
ordinance, if our borough dads don't
try to handle us n little tenderIy.

question, the dog question, and
many other questions of main or

to digest all at once. Let us make

first. "Let all things be done decent
