SYMPTOMS of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms Of Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under the edge
l of the ribs, increases on pressure;
sometimes the pain is in the left side;
the patient is rarely able to lie on the
left side; sometimes the pain is felt
under the shoulder blade, and it fire.
quently extends to the top of the shoul-
der, and is sometimes mistaken for
rheumatism in the arm. The stomach
is affected with loss of appetite and
sickness; the bowels in general are
costive, sometimes alternative with lax;
the head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation in
the back part. There is generally a
considerable loss of memory, accom-
panied with painful sensation of hav-
ing left undone something which ought
to have been done. "A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility; he
is easily startled, his feet are cold or
burning, and he complains of prickly
sensation of the skin; his spirits are
low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon up 'forti-
tude enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease, but
cases have occurred where few of them
existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged n
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. C. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken
with Quinine, are productive of the
most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used, preparatory to, or after
taking Ouinine. We would advise all
whs are afflicted with this disease to
give them a FAIR TRIAL.
For all bilious arrangements, and as
simple purgative, they are unequaled.
BEWARE OF INVITATIONS.
The genuine are never sugar coated.
Every box has a red wax seal on the lid,
with the impression DR.. McLANRs LIVER
PILLS.
The genuine McLANE's LIVER PILLS bear
the signatures of C. McLANE and FLEMING
BROS. on the wrappers
Insist upon having the genuine DR.. c.
McLANE's LIVER PILLS, prepared by Fleming
Bros, of Pittsburgh, Pa, the market being
full of limitations of the name McLane,
spelled differently but same pronunciation.

with snarl, "Will .7ou give me twenty-five
cents ?" "No," said the junior partner, who

USES OF AMMONIA IN THE HOUSEHOLD.

No housekeeper should be without bottle
of spirits of ammonia, for besides its medical
value, it is also invaluable for many house
hold purposes. 1t is nearly as useful an ar
ticle, for cleansing uses, and its cheapness
brings it within the means of all.
Turn teaspoonful of fammonia into quart
of warm soap.suds; dip in bit of flannel,
and wipe off the CRIME and smoke and dust,
from any painted wood work, and see for
yourselves how much hard labor it will save
you, for you do not need to scrub it with all
your strength, only wipe it off.
1t will also clean and brighten silver won
derfully. Mix teaspoonful of the ammonia
with pint of hot suds; dip in your silver
forks and spoons, rub them with soft brush,
and polish with chamois skin, and you will
use it weekly, if not oftener.
For washing mirrors and windows it is very
excellent. Put few drops Of the ammonia
upon bit of newspaper, and you can rub off
any marks upon the glass at once. .
It will also take out grease spots from all
kinds of cloth. Mix few drops of water,
and rub gently on the spot; lay blotting-
paper over the place, and press moderately
heated Aat.iron upon it, and it will disappear.
A few drops turned upon wetted towel and
gently pressed upon the edge of a soiled COL
lar, will whiten it.
Then it is most refreshing agent for the
toilet; few drops in basin of water will
remove all disagreeable odors of the skin. II
a teaspoonful is added to a foot-bath, it will
take away all unpleasantness from the feet,
And there is nothing better for cleansing the
hair from dust and dandruff then half a tea
spoonful of ammonia in teacupful of warm
water.
For cleaning hair and nail brushes it is
equally good. Put a teaspoonful of it into
a pint of warm water, and dip the brushes in
the water and scrub them we'll then shake
out until nearly dry, and put in the sunshine
The most soiled will come forth from such
bath white and clean.
For medicinal purposes ammonia is much
used In cases of severe headache, it vii
prove very agreeable remedy, and fre
quent inhalation of its pungent vapors viii
often cure catarrhal cold. There is no bet
ter remedy than aromatic spirits Of ammonis
for severe cold. Twenty drops Of it, taker
in wine.glass of water, will frequently prove
of great relief 1t is also a good remedy fol
dyspepsia and heart. burn. The common spir
its of ammonia can be used in the same way
but it is not as palatable as the aromatic
spirits.
In addition to all these uses, ammonia car
be applied to vegetation with most beneficial
effects If you desire to make your roses
fuchias, geraniums, and carnations blossom
add half teaspoonful of the ammonia tt
every pint and half Of warm water, ane
sprinkle them with it. But do not use il
oftener than twice week.
Rain water is impregnated with ammonia
and il is more refreshing and invigorating
than Spring water to vegetable life.
Ammonia should always be kept tightly
closed with glass stopper, as it is so strong
that it eats away cork.

YOUNG AMERICA AABRoAD-As story comes
to Causeur of an incident in school at South
ampton, Eng, some years since. The boys
were being examined in the history of Eng.
land, and the answers were mainly dates Of
events more or less important in the history
of the British Empire. Among the pupils
was the son of an American sea-captain, a
bright specimen of Young America. Being
questioned concerning dates in English histo-
ry, he manifested an ignorance bordering on
stupidity. The teacher, whose patience was
exhausted, exclaimed, "What Don't you

Ohio, Journal, came to town one day this
week to make few purchases. 1t happened
that he called at an establishment where ap
elevator is in use. In order to furnish the
articles desired, it was necessary to 60 into an
upper story, and the salesman said to his
customer:
"Just get on, and we'll 60 up"
That startled granger looked around, and
said: "On where7"
He was given the desired information, and

attested his appreciation of it by remarking
'This beats all nation, don't it ?"
The salesman smilingly remarked that he
rather thought it did. In the meantime a
son of the farmer became impatient, and came
into the store room below, looking for him.
The father, seeing his son, stepped to the
hatchway and said:
"You can't came up here, son; came up
on the cellar door, and it's up here yet"

finger that she got picking blackberries, then
she brought in crock of buttermilk and
finally sat down to enumerating all her all
ments and how she felt at times. She had the
"budges" every night, felt like kicking out

A JURYMANsS GRIEVANCE.

"Well, gentlemen, have you decided upon
a verdict ?" asked Judge in San Francisco,
the other day, as the jury returned to the box.
"Did understand that the prisoners name
was Severance-T. K. Severance?" asked the
foreman, gloomily.
cit is"
"Then we bring in verdict of murder in
the first degree" and the foreman rubbed his
hands with an expression of horrible satisfac-
ton.
"But this amt murder case" said the as
tonished Judge; "this is an action to recover o,,
insurance. What on earth do you mean p
"Don't make any difference" growled the
foreman. "My name is Severance, too,-T.
K. Sevsrance-and for the last four years
some unprincipled wretch of the same sur
name has had his washing done at the same
laundry I patronize. The result is that every
now and then I find some of my silk en-
broidered hendkerchiefs and four-dollar shirts
gone, and in place of them about the worst
looking lot Of old rags on record-things
mixed, you see."
"Well, but"
II know what you are going to say, but
that amt the point. The other Severance al
ways takes back the things of his l return.
Oh! yes; but he freezes on to my garments

as to when change my Chinaman, and the
next week follows with his wash too. Why
I've been clear round to all the wash-houses
in the city six times already-this fellow after
me like a sleuth hound"
"Really, Mr.. Foreman, this is all very we'll
but"
81 even went so far, your honor, as to
change my name actually had all my under
clothes marked Gungleberg-Julius G: Gun
gleberg-just think of it; but what did this
wretch do but find it out, and change hisn
and before l knew it he had gathered in SIX
more brand new undershirts and set oi
pojamas. It's no good recommending him tc
mercy. I've explained the whole thing te
the jury, and they all agree that he ought tt
be hanged to omorrow, as the sheriff can "6z
things on time," and there was a universe
roar of indignation from the sympathetic
spectators as the Judge ordered new tria
and put the foreman under heavy. bonds tt
keep the peace.
