years past been acquainted with the remedy

efficiency in obstinate and so-called incura-

some OF these cases, which seemed to be in
the last stages, and which had been given
up by practitioners of both schools, the
speedy change wrought by this remedy

Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver Cure
a Sleeping Tree.


A tree was recently brought from
Australia to Nevada, which has been
in the habit at nights of going to roost
like the chickens. The leaves fold
together, and the ends of the tender
twigs coil themselves up like the tail of
well-conditioned pig. After one of
the twigs has been stroked or handled
the leaves move uneasily and are in
sort of mild commotion for minute
or more. Indignant at having been
transplanted the other day, it had hard
" been placed in its new quarters be-
fore the leaves began to stand up like
the hair on the tail of an angry cat,
and soon the whole plant was in o
culver. 1t gave out most pungent
odor, which filed the house and was
SO sickening that it was found neces-
sary to open the doors and windows.
1t was fully an hour before the plant
Gained down and folded its leaves in
peace. 1t would probably not have
given up the fight even then had it not
been that its time for going TO roost
had arrived. The whole household now
stand in awe of that plant.

THE DAILY BULLETIN.
Lima Beams and Potatoes.

Some people complain that Of all the
garden products and the vast improve
ments that have been made in nearly
all of them, the Lima bean is now about
where il was fifty years ago. And 1t
nearft is so. Latterly there has been
some increase in the size OF the pod
and the bean, and that IL all. But then
may it not be said at the same time
that the excellence OF the bean is such
that there is no room for improvement
in the qualify? 1t is true that 1t still
requires the big, long pole, which has
TO be planted with almost the solidity
OF an ordinary fence post; but when
that is said we may conclude that all
is said that can be against it. For
ourselves, we are only too glad that we
have this bean as it is vouchsafed 10
us. and we doubt if we shall ever see it
improved in any way except in size,
and it Is questionable whether that
would be any advantage at all. II
the pole could be dispensed with, and
trellis like that for the tomato be sub
stituted. il would be decided advant-
age; but it iss,a natural climber. and
climb it probably will to the end of its
days. SO be it.
MANY persons find much profit in
piuching back the branches OF the to-
matoes; and it is a good practice when
iudiciously done 1t may be outdone,
However, and injury result. In the
first place. it is no use to attempt it af-
her the flowers have fallen. The idea
is to force the nourishment in the fruit
at the earliest start; for it is at that
time that the future fate of the fruit is
cast. A few leaves beyond the fruit is
an advantage. II is only the growth
that is to be checked And then much
damage is done by taking of the leaves
as we'll as the fruit. The tomato plant
needs all the leaves it can get 1t is
only the branches that are to be
checked in their growth. No one who
has not tried it can have any idea OF
how valuable the leaves are 10 the to-
mato plant, One may for experiment
take of most Of the leaves of a plant,
and he will find the flavor insipid and
every way poor. Of course it is the
peculiar acidity of the tomato that
gives ii so much value TO all of us; but
the acid from tomato that has ripened
on an insufficient amount Of foliage, is
disagreeable to most tastes. The same
principle has been found to work in
managing grape-vines. The man who
judiciously pinches back the branches
does well; but he who strips off the
foliage to "let in the sun and the air."
generally finds that he has made mess

The Blessing of Regular Digestion

Is best appreciated by those who, having
lost, have ultimately recovered it. To form
an adequate conception of the horrors Of
dyspepsia, one must have experienced that
malady in its chronic form. A temporary
fit Of indigestion, though doubtless trouble
some enough, can give no suitable idea
when it has taken continued possession Of
the stomach. To anticipate and prevent the
chronic phase with Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers IS the wise course. While that incom-
parable invigorant and corrective conquers
the most obstinate types of dyspepsia, it is
always wise to use 1t early, and thus avoid
prolonging the process of cure, Flatulence,
heartburn, headache, bliousness, palpita-
tions, nervousness, loss of flesh and appetite
and other concomitants of dyspepsia, are
all remedied by this sterling medicine.
Use it before meals and on retiring.

situation SO palpably impolitic, so little
in accord with public sentiment general

own belief upon the subject is, that Mr..
Warmers desire is to accomplish the
wishes of his constituents, but at pres
ent he may be laboring under the i'm
preston, that a repeal of the herd law
is just what a majority desire. and the
other members are probably about in the
same state Of cloudy information. They
should be at once advised 10y those in
terested, and should they find that the
important and already powerful element
engaged in agricultural pursuits, are in
favor Of a herd law, we have no doubt
that they would each heed the advice
given. 1t must be remembered hat we
are a new county, not yet well acquaint-
ed with each other. Our interests may
clash with each other without its being
premeditated or intended, and the only
tanned upon such questions, is by a full
expression of opinion by %contending

The Grand Rounea

On the seventh day of last March Mr..
M. Kreisle, wholesale and retail dealer
in furniture and furnishing goods,
employed one X. A. Griffith as book
keeper. He has attended to the duties
ever since, and as a general thing gave
satisfaction. On Monday he did not turn
up at his place of business at the usua
hour, but nothing was thought of it I'M
til his prolonged absence ran into the
hours. Then it was a glimmer of sus-
picion tinged the minds of Mr.. Kreisle
and his sons, and they were about to COM
mence an investigation when brother
of Mr.. Griffith appeared and informed
them that he had good reason to believe
his brother had left for parts unknown.
Mr.. Kreisle then examined his books and
cash and found about fifty dollars mis-
sing. No one knows why Griffith gave
the firm and the city the grand bounce, or
what direction he took.

OFFICIAL BULLETIN.

$50 p. M-The president has passed
comfortably through the day. He
has taken the usual amount Of nour-
ishment by mouth, as well as
stimulating enemata at stated pc
RODS. His rise of temperature this
evening is degree less than yester-
day at the same time, and his pulse
is less frequent than at noon to-day.
The parotid swelling has been dis
charging more freely, and is con-
tinuing to diminish in size His
pulse is 107, temperature 995.10 and
respiration Is.
1880 p. M.-The day at the execu-
tive mansion has been extremely
quiet and uneventful, the news from
the sick room being very gratifying.
Shortly after the midday bulletin
was issued, ripple of excitement
became noticeable, owing to the
rise of the patients pulse to 116, but
the cause of the rise was satisfacto-
rily stated by surgeons. The explana-
ton was, in effect, that the increased
pulse was due TO the slight incision
of the parotid gland, which was
made by DIR. Bliss this morning.
The attending surgeons say that dur
ing the extremely enfeebled condi-
ton of the patient no Importance
should be attributed to the slight
fluctuations of his pulse. The pa
tient takes his usual nourishment,
and during the day, in addition TO
koumiss, milk porridge and beef
tea, which he partook Of freely. He
ate another piece of milk toast with
apparent relish.
During conversation this even
ing DIR. Boynton said that the CLAN
dular troubles were apparently
much better and that there was
a large discharge from IL this morn
ing and that there was not much
change in the condition of the
wound; that the granulation had
been perceived but not to any great
extent. He considered the general
condition of the patient fully as
good as yesterday He said that
while there has been no material
gain of strength there may have been
a slight Improvement and there GER
tainly has been O marked improve
ment since the recent crisis. lie
now takes his food with as much rel
ish as at any time during his illness.
In reply to further interrogato-
ries DIR. Boynton SAID no marked
change is expected at once. All
that we can expect is that the pa
tent hold. his own for q few days.
If he makes even slight improve
ment il will be perfectly satisfacto-
rY. In response to other question,
Are there any symptoms indicating
another crisis, the doctor said that
he had not noticed any symptoms.
The interview concluded by the
doctor remarking that the prospects
for final recovery are very fair, but
in case of this kind he said no
one can say positively that the prssi-
dent will recover. Therefore he
could not make any definite predic-
ton on that point.
