In active pursuit of pleasure or gain the
inestimable blessing of health is too often
forgotten until diseases is firmly seated,
and the fact only realized by great bodily
and mental suffering. The Liver is the
vulnerable point in most persons. and the
disarrangement of the organ involves al
most the whole system; hence the reason
why under the Liver diseases there is
enumerated number of Affections. and
we claim the Simmons Liver Regulator to
be remedy for them all.

an artesian well in that city. Mr.. Perkins
has persevered, under great difficulties, in
the work of this well. After trying for
some four months to extract a broken drill
from the well, he finally commenced
another well. which is now down Ats feet.
His contract with the city is 500 feet.

chances of water The well now supplies
water enough for all practical
purposes, but is not of the

water from this we'll to reservoir from
whence they carry it to the mains.
These pumps are patent of Mr.. Per-
kins' and have a capacity OF about l.0o0,-
900 gallons per day. The whole works
cost about 81 900 and are credit to the
city.
The celebration was all that could be

fairs and those taking part in it. as well as
the lockers on. some two or three thousand
people,a crowd such as Geneseo has never
seen before within her corporate limits.

A New Zealand paper relates the follow
ing; There is dog at Taupo, and also a
young pig, and these two afford curious
example of animal sagacity and confidence
in the bona tide of each other. These two
animals live at the native pah on the oppo :
site side of Tapaueharuru, and the dog dis
covered some happy hunting grounds on
the other side and informed the pig. The
pig, being only two months old, informed
the dog that he could not swim across the
river, which at that spot debouches from
the lake, but that in time he hoped to share
the adventures of his canine friend. The
dog settled the difficulty. He went into the
river, standing up to his neck in the water,
and crouched down; the pig got on his
back clasping his neck with his forolegs.
The dog then swan across, thus carrying
his chum over. Regularly every morning
the two in this way go across, and forage
around Tapaueharuru, returning to the pah
at night; and if the dog was ready to go
home before the pig he would wait until his
friend came down to be ferried over. The
truth of this story is vouched for by several
who have watched the movements of the
pair for some weeks past.
