After Years OF Suffering.

Mrs. Elizabeth Mock, OF Salem, ~ G., writes un-
der date OF March 10th, 1878 that she suffered for
many years with dyspepsia. complicated with neu-
talgia. The pain was so severe that size could not
e day or night Several lhys clans attended
her without benefit, or even relief. She was con-
Sdered ncurable BY reading the Peonles Com
mon Sense Medical Adviser, she learned that DIR.
Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y, successfully prescribed
lis Golden Medical Discovery in such cases. She
commenced its use The pain gradually subsided
yered, and in few weeks was perfectly and per-
manently restored Her case is wonder TO all
who know her. In the face Of such testimony is
II not foolish to condemn DR.. p crcc's Family
Med cincs, simply because some almost unknown
nostrtrm has failed? Suppose You have purchased
ShOGdy goods of one or two merchants Is it fair
10 condemn all merchants as sw ndlers, and all
goods as shOddy? Those who once try Dr.
PierCes Family Medicines ever afterwards speak
IN their praise.

Tourists, emigrants and mariners find
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a medic
inal safeguard against unhealthful inhu
ences, upon which they can implicitly rely
since it prevents the effects that an un
healthy climate, vitiated atmosphere, un.
accustomed or unwholesome diet, bad
water, or other conditions unfavorable tC
health, would otherwise produce. On long
voyages or Journeys by land in latitude.
adjacent to the equator, it is especially use
ful as preventive of the febrile complaints
and disorders of the stomach, liver and
bowels, which are apt to attack natives OF
the temperate zones sojourning or travel
ing in such regions, and is an excellent pro
lection against the influence of extreme
cold, sudden changes of temperature, ex
posure to damp or extreme fatigue 1t not
only prevents intermittent and remittent
fever, and other diseases of a malarial type,
but eradicates them, fact which has been
notorious for years past in North and South
America Mexico, the West Indies, Aus.
tralia and other countries.

1t occurred in Bodie, that city of
whisky, wealth and wickedness. A case
was on trial in the Justices Court, and
during a recess one of the interested par
ties approached juror and said;
"Say, boss, if that ar suit goes agin me
Pm nigh on $1,000 loser in minin' prop
erty. Now, I'll give you an even $500 to
hang that jury"
The incorruptible scion of American
liberty reflected moment and replied:
It'd be cussed onsartin job for one
man to take rope an strange that hull
gang, an Pm afraid afore got through
| mout dance a jig under it myself; but
if it's all the same to you, pard, mout
wade in thar with six-shooter an wipe
out the crowd. That'd be more to my
hand than hangin' and the job could be
done quicker. If that's satisfactory, pro-
duce the coin an I'll Git to work"

full evergreen arches were erected, surmount-

SECOND PARISH CHURCH
An Incumbrance of $14, 800 Removed
Yesterday.

Mr. Edward Kinball of Chicago, now famous
as the great church debt raiser, occupied the
sacred desk at the Second Parish Church yes
terday for the purpose of removing the incum-
brance that has long rested upon their editice.
After the opening doxolo gy and prayer by the
acting pastor, Rev. Mr.. Mills, Mr.. Kimball
took charge and gave Bible reading on the
address of God to the Israelites degraded and
debased by their 400 years of Egyptian seryi-
tude, concerning the building of sanctuary
for him to dwell among them Mr. Kimball
laid much stress upon the willing heart that
was enjoined with so much emphasis. The
meaning of willing has changed som ewhat-it
means otsimply consenting but giving the
will, and therefore in this work a consecrated
will, an intense, earnest persistent purpose was
necessary.
The speakers remarks were Of q most in
teresting character and were listened to with q
marked degree of interest. They were to the
point that gifts to the Lord s''"',d come from
free and willing heart Mr.. Knnb&h occasionally
illustrated his remarks by incidents which had
come under his personal observation during his
labors in the way of lifting church debts-in
WHICH HO HIS uau COHSluefdUlc cApoIicHCC-
and closed by referring to his boyhood, when
the name of Edward Payson was a household
word, and to the fact that all New England
was to-day praying for his church, all beca use
of DR.. Payson's loyalty in holding up the word
of God. In seeking to lift the debt to-day, he
asks that it may be done not from any consid-
Grafton of pressure upon the society, but only
for the honor of Christ, to remove reproach
from the brow of the bride of Christ.
Mr.. Kimball announced the full amount of
debt to be raised and explained fully his
systematic manner of proceeding, which was
to get, in the first place, ten or twelve sub
scriptions at least one-half the debt; the
balance is then collected by subscriptions of
smaller sums and never going to the lesser
ones till those of the larger denomination are
raised. $4,000 were raised from 1880 to
o'clock, and the subscriptions were raised to
$4,000 in the afternoon service, and the
balance during the evening, the assembly be-
ing dismissed at quarter to IL o'clock p. M
Williston Church contributed 500 and 500
was contributed from Deering, which was all
the outside aid given, the balance being taken
by the Society.
Mr.. Kimball is an earnest, pleasant and
most interesting speaker and gets at once
firm and deep hold upon his audience.

Almost a Suicide.

Yesterday afternoon, about o'clock, Officers
Miles. Warren and McCallum were called to q
little shop on Pleasant street, lately fitted up
by James Porter formerly hackman of this
city, where man was said to be bleeding to
DEATH On arrival at the spot, they found
Porter in a room in the rear of the shop and
his wife with him. The man presented ter
ribe sight. The blood was flowing from a
wound in the leg. DR.. Sylvester was lmme-
diately called and said-after experiencing
some difficulty in stopping the bleeding-that
a few minutes later and the man could not
have survived. 1t appears that Porter received
a kick in the leg from horse four years ago.
