BOT sympts mas bnt the Disease.

1t would seem to be a truth sappreciable
by all, and especially by professors of the
healing art. that to remove the disease, not
to alleviate its symptoms, should be the
chief aim of medication. Yet, in how many
instances DO we see this truth admitted in
theory, ignored in practice. The reason that
Hostetter's stomach Bitters is successful in
SO many cases, with which remedies pre-
viously tried were inadequate to cope, is at
tributable to the fact that it is medicine
whish reaches and removes the causes of the
various maladies to which it is adapted. In
digestion, fever and ague, liver complaint,
govt, rheumatlsm, disorders of the bowels,
urinary affections and all other maladies are
not palliated merely, but rooted out by it.
1t goes to the fountain head. It IL really,
not nominally, radical remedy, and it emf
dows the system with an amount of vigor
which is its best protection against disease.

We are frequently asked If ashes are
good for light soils, and we as often an
swer eyes," without hesitation. We
think ashes can hardly be misspplied,
but we believe in applying them to high
dry lands. We donot use them enough,
Or think enough of them. 1t will be
said, in reply, that they can not be OBJ
tanned as freely as formerly ; and that is
true. But it is equally true that they
can be obtained in considerable quan~
titles by those who seek them. We
refer to wood ashes, !or we do not value
GAL ashes, except for use as an absorbent
or for their mechanical effect upon Soils
Many soils lack Just what is 20 freely
supplied in wood ashes-potash; and if
it is not furnished certain crops can not
be obtained. We have seen most sur
prising results in some cases from free
use of ashes; should use it fer almost
sny crop; have had the best success
when sppiied to grass, under cabbage,
corn, spread broadcast On fields where
potatoes were grown; in the vineyard,
under roots, etc. Let every farmer suse
all he can get Of this excellent fertilizer.

Hosts of People are MARTYRS

To sick headache, that infalliable symptom
of disordered stomach, liver and bowels.
Many suffer from it as many as three or
four times week. They do SO needlessly,
for Hostetter's Stomach Bitters by toning
the digestive organs and regulating the
bowels and liver removes the cause, and
dispels the painful symptom. The init
mate sympathy between the brain and the
abdominal region causes the slighies disor-
der affecting the latter TO be reflected, as it
were, in the organ of thought. The reform
instituted by the Biters whenthe digestive,
secretive and evacuatiye functions are in a
state of chaos, has other and more benc-
fetal results viz, the complete nutrition of
the whole physical economy, the restora-
tion of appetite and repose, and all increase
in the power of the system to resist diseases
of a nIalarial type. d

An enormous bat, of unknown species,

An enormous bat, of unknown species,
was recently slot near Irvine. KY. The
wings of the animal measured two feetfro
tip to Zip, and its claws were long and
strong enough apparently to carry off a
fulI-grown squirrel Itsfur was dark brown
and several inches long in places. When
wounded it uttered a cry so human in lis
expression that the man who shot it was
quite unnerved and could not take heart TO
shoot any others of the species, although
several were flying about him.
