Indian Depreciation.

The fair reader shudders when she
thinks OF the settlers wife watching,
from the door of her rude hut, the re-
treating form of her husband going out
to his daily labor-going out perhaps
to return not again, for before nightfall
a savage hand may have laid him low
among the prairie grasses. Or it may
be child, bright-eyed daughter, is
snatched away in an unguarded mo-
ment, to grace the next war dance.
When we read the heartrending details
of these savage depredations, we are
apt to blame the government for not
taking more strict precautions to insure
the settlers protection. But we daily
read of the depredations Of that arch
fiend, consumption, with scarcely a
thought of the terrible i'm Dads 1t is
making in human life. Tens of thous-
ands of homes are annually desolated
by consumption to one by indian out
rage. Like the Indian, consumption
oftenest comes stealthily, and no dan
ger is apprehended until the victim
suddenly finds himself hopelessly en-
shared, and deaths fatal arrow ends
the scene. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medi-
cal Discovery, powerful Alternative, or
blood purifier, and tonic, has restored
thousands of consump ptives who had
tried every other remedy recommended
to them, without obtaining any relief,
and are willing to testify to Its remedial
powers.

A Texas camel breeder, speaking of the
rearing of the ''ship of the desert" says
they are nomore trouble to raise than horses
or cattle. The colts for the first three or
four days are rather tender, and require
close attention, but after that they take
their chances with the herd. They feed
on cactus and brushes chewing all grasses
that cattle and horses eat if the favorite
cactus can be had. The females, with
proper care, give colt every year, and the
price at which they are sold, the ease with
which they are raised, their extreme doci-
lity, and the adaptability Of our climate to
their nature, would seem to indicate that
camel raising is a profitable business in
Texas. Mr.. Lantear says there is one
camel in the herd that has travelled 150
miles between sun and sun, and that almost
any well-broken camel is good for more
than 100 miles in day.

subduing and Avoiding Fever and Ague.

OF all chronic diseases, fever and ague il
perhaps the least conquerable by the ordinary
resources Of medicine. There is. however, a
remedy which completely roots it out Of the
system in any and all of its various phases.
This celebrated anti-periodic is vegetable in
composition, and is not only eficacous, but
perfectly safe, thing that cannot be predica-
ted with truth Of quinine. Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters is, besides, a most efficient means
of defense against malaria, as it endows the
physique with an amount of stamina which
enables it to encounter miasmatic influences
without prejudice to health. Persons about
to visit. or living in foreign countries, or por-
tons of our own where intermittent or remit
tent fevers prevail, should not omit to lay in
a sufficient supply of the great Preventive,
both to avert such diseases and disorders of
the stomach, bowels and liver common to such
localities.
