Amputation Of the Leg.
The Old Family Physician at
Fault-Dr. David Kennedy
the Successful Surgeon.

Money is the universal necessity, and
none but cynic or fool will affect to
despise it. Mr.. Abram Ellsworth, Of
Port EVEN, Ulster county, n. Y, had
realized this truth. His disease involved
the whole of the thigh-bone. and the
suffering man looked forward not with
out apparent reason, to death as his only
deliverer. His family physician refused
to amputate the Hmb-asserting that the
operation would kill the patient on the
spot. DIR. David Kennedy, of RoDdout,
n. Y, who was consulted, held differ
ent opinion, and amputated the limb.
The Doctor then administered freely his
great Blood Specific FAVORITE
REMEDY to afford tone and strength
TO the system, and prevent the return
of the disease, and Mr.. Ellsworth re-
mains TO this dav in the bloom of health. !.
This gentleman's disease was the off
spring of foul blood, and Kennedy's
FAVORITE REMEDY purified the
blood and restored to him the power
once more to enjoy his life. Are you
suffering from any disease traceable to
the same causeP Try Favorite Remedy.

Health and Happiness.

It seems strange that anyone will suf-
fer many arrangements brought on by
an impure condition of the blood, when
Scoville's Blood and Liver syrup will
restore perfect health to the physical
organization 1t is indeed a rengthen-
ing syrup, pleasant TO take, and has
proven itself to I've the best blood puri-
fier ever discovered, effectually curing
Scrofula, Syphilitic disorders, Weakness
of the Kidneys, all nervous disorders
and Debility. 1t corrects indigestion.
1t makes the old feel young, and the
young feel gay; and will invariably
drive out of the system the many ills
that human flesh is heir to. A single
bottle will prove to you its merits as
health renewer, for 1t acts like n charm,
especially when the complaint is of an
exhaustive nature, having tendency
to lessen the natural vigor Of the brain

Seeking for sunken Millions.

A special from Lewes to the Whining
oon Del.) Morning Nesos says that the
international Submarine Diving Com
pany, organized two years ago by capi-
talists in Philadelphia to search for the
Debraak, an English sloop-of-war which
foundered in storm off Lewes, Del,
June 10, 1898, has discovered evidences
of the missing vessel. According to pa
pers in possession of Samuel s. Nc
Cracken, pilot whose grandfather was
the only survivor and who was engaged
in plotting the vessel into harbor, fifty
two millions of specie and jewels went
down with her. The money was taken
by the Debraak from an intercepted
Spanish fleet while on her way to Hall
fax, England, from a successful cruise
on the Spanish main. With the specie
200 prisoners were taken. When the
vessel foundered the prisoners were in
irons on the lower deck and were all
lost. Capt. James Drew, who COM
manded the vessel and whose body was
recovered two days following, lies buried
in st. Peters churehyard at Lewes.
Two years after the wreck the British
Government sent two frigates to raise
the Debraak, but without success. Nc.
Cracken says that the Debraak lies in
fifteen fathoms of water. The divers
found long, irregular ridge about fif.z
teen feet high, eighteen feet wide and
sixty feet long. On each side are piles
of loose stone, supposed to be the bal.
last thrown from the frigates in the eff
fort to raise the wreck in 1900. Rough
weather interfering with further opera
tions, the company was compelled to
postpone the search, and on Wednes.
day the divers returned to Philadelphia
The work, however, will be vigorously
pushed forward as soop as favorable
weather sets in.

Rescued from Death.

The following statement of William j.
Coughiine, of Som rville, Ma s., is so
remarkable that we beg to ask for 1t the
attension of our readers. He says: SIN
the fall of 1876 was taken with vio-
lent bleeding of the lungs followed by a
severe cough. soon began to lose my
appetite and flesh. was so weak at
one time that / could not leave my bed.
In the summer of 1877 was admitted
to the City Hospital. While there the
doctors said had hole in my left lung
as big as q half dollar. / expended
a hundred dollars in doctors and medi-
cines. was so far gone at one time q
report went around that was dead. 1
gave up hope, but friend told me of
DIR. VIM. Halls Balsam for the Lungs.
I laughed at my friends, thinking that
nv case was incurable, but got a bot
tie to satisfy them, when to my sur
psise and qualification, l commenced to
feel better. My hope, once dead, began
to revive, and to-day / feel better spirit
ed than have the past three years.
s'I write this hoping you will publish
1t, so that every one afflicted with Di-
seased Lungs will be induced to take
DIR. VIM. Halls Balsam for the Lungs,
and be convinced that Consumption can
be Cured. have taken two bottles
and can positively say thatit has done
more good than all the other medicines
I have taken since my sickness. My
cough has almost entirely disappeared
and shall soon be able to 60 to work.
