cessfully,-with every proposed method for puri-
flying the blood and giving vitality to the
system, both general and local. 1t will in
many cases do all that is claimed for medicine

forms OF treatment. 1t produces power,
energy, and vitality; 1t promotes pbysiolog ical
action, and thereby raises the standard of
health; it impels the blood in its course,
changes interstitial fluids. produces chemical
action, and performs other duties serviceable
to vitality; it is the greatest aid to the crcula-
ton, removing ali local impediments.
1t removes local congestion and chronic in.
fammation. 1t increases the o3idizing fur ctiop.
1t causes the absorption and disappearance Of

most efficscious remedy for PARALYSIS, if taken
in time. 1t cures deformities, liberates ad-
herring and contracted fibres, renders

fects digestion and nutrition. In short, it
promotes the healthy action of every function
of the body. Health Lift Room, 237 Middle

The Preble House Seizure.


Inc seizure case from the club at the Preble
house came up in the Municipal Court yester-
DAY morning. Messrs. Ring and Mariner gave
their testimony for the government, describing
the seizure. Their testimony did not implicate
the Lotel Mr.. Gibson, proprietor of the house,
testihed he knew nothing of any liquor stored
In the house for sale. and had no interest in the
property seized, whatever. Judge Knight dis
missed the case against Gibson, but held Mr..
Winslow, treasurer of the club, in the sum Of
700 and costs, on the ground that there was
probable cause Mr. Wipslow appealed. Judge
Knight took the ground that in the club case
decided by Judge Peters the club constitution
was put in evidence and the members proved
property, and in the case of the Independent
Club on Plum street, members also proved
property. Mr.. Gage appeared for Mr.. Gibson.
Mr.. II. B. C!eaves for Mr.. Winslow, and MI.
Thomas Talbot, assistant County Attorney, for
the government.

Lost the Corpse.

A singular and novel mode of transporting
the corpse of two and half year old child
has recently been divulged by few knowing
ones. 1t seems that the child died in Chicago;
its father was former resident of Saoo, and
its mother a former resident Of Kennebunk.
The body was to be brought to Portland for
burial. When the train arrived at Kennebunk,
where some of the relatives of the family were
to join the mother in her sorrowful journey,
enquiry was made in regard to the corpse, but
nothing could be learned of it. and the party
came through to this city, hoping to find all
things right, but no clue could be obtained Of
the missing body. Tslegraphic communication
with parties in Chicago was resorted to, and
after considerable delay, it was found out that
the casket containing the child was Enclosed in
a large travelling trunk
