Amputation of the Leg,

The Old Family Physician at Fault-Dr. Da-
vid Kennedy the Successful Surgeon.

Money is the universal necessity, and none but a
cynic or a 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 his thigh-bone, and the suffering man looked for
ward, not without apparent to death as his
only deliverer. His family physician refused to am
putate the limb-asserting that the operation would
kill the patient the spot. DR.. David Kennedy, of
Rondout, n. Y, who consulted, held different
opinion, and amputated the limb. The Doctor then
administered freely his great Blood Specific FAVOR
ITE REMEDY to afford tone and strength to the sys-
TEN, prevent the return of the disease, and Mr. Ellis
worth remains to this day in the bloom of health.
This gentleman's disease was the offspring of foul
blood, and Kennedy's FAVORITE REMEDY purified
the blood and restored to him the power to
enjoy his life Are you suffering from any disease

a Bourbon AnecdOte.

John j. O4ltttanden used to tell this
anecdote to illustra2 the fidelity of
his people to the wine Of the coun-
try:
A leading politician of the State
(Kentucky), stopping for the night at
the house of a countryman in one of
the southeastern counties, found the
entertainment he got the more salts
factory because Of barrel Of very res
pectable whisky having been just
brought in. Returning a month af-
terward from an electioneering tour,
and disappointed in not being able to
get even a drink, he reminded the host,
with some impatience, that only a
month ago he had a full barrel in his
pantry. The look that preceded the
answer to this reminder was COM
posed of surprise and resentment:
"Lookee here. my friend, do you
spect one bar'l O. whisky to last al
rays, and specially when a mans got
a wife and six children, and the cows
gone dry, and they've got no milk?"
Never" answered the candidate

the situation, or I'd never have asked

New Jersey Premium Wine.

Physicians state that the Port Wine
that took the premium at the Centen-
NAL, produced and offered for sale by
Mr.. Alfred Speer, of New Jersey, is a
wine that can be safely used for med
icinal purposes, being pure and free
from medication, and is more reliable
than other Port Wines. 1t is espec-
tally recommended for weekly females

No. Sir!

A Scotch minister once said no wo-
man could bear pain as well as a man.
That is not so. The fact is generally
the other way. Mrs. Edward Meyers,
of Rondout, N. Y, submitted to the
operation of the removal of her hand
by amputation, without taking ether,
or moving a muscle, or uttering
groan. Dr. Kennedy, also of Rom
dout, N. Y, who performed the oper-
alton, said he never saw such heroism.
The lady's disease was Erysipelas, and
afterward the Doctor gave his Favor
ite Remedy" to cleanse the Blood.
Mrs. Meyers is now well and strong.

from foulness and blackguardism.
Fish women and bar-room loafers are
skilled in the art Of bandying epithets

A True Cause For Regret.

1t makes the heart Of every philan-
thropist sad to see so many worthless
patent medicines puffed and advertised
for the cure Of chronic diseases. Usu-
ally the remedy is some vile cathal Sic
compound or alcoholic preparation,
combined with buchu, turpentine or
other severe diuretic that affords the
invalid only temporary relief, bu5
which has no lasting effect, and in
truth eventually brings on compli-
cation Of diseases arising from state
Of worn out and exhausted digestive
and urinary organs that nothing but
death can relieve. Invalids should
trust more to nature for their recove-
ry. A gentle medicinal tonic thai
stimulates enfeebled digestion and
strengthens every part of the system
by its soothing and refreshing effect
on both mind and body, is natures
truest and best assistant. Such rem
edy is Browns Iron Bitters, a medi-
cine surprising the sale of all other
remedies whenever its merits become
known, for it acts in such perfect har-
mony with the laws of life and health,
that all pulmonary, urinary and diges-
tive troubles are prevented and per-
manently cured by its timely use. It
contains no alcohol, and will not
blacken the teeth. Physicians and
ministers endorse and recommend it.

Experience the Best Guide.

The constant practice most women
have in caring for the sick makes
them often more skillful than physi-
clans in selecting medicines. The
reason why women are everywhere
using and recommending Parker's
Ginger Tonic is because they have
learned by the best of guides-experi-
ence-that this excellent family med
icine speedily overcomes despopdency,

complaint, pain or weakness in the
back and kidneys, and other troubles
peculiar to the sex.-Home Journal.

Its Fatal Prevalence

Its Fatal Prevalence In Dakota.
WAHPETON, Dakota, Dec. 2S.-Seventy-
seven cases of smallpox in the infected
district below here, 25 of which have
proved fatal. The disease is spreading
considerably on this side Of the river, and
seems to be singul:rly fatal. Some of the
victims are said to have died within "a
hours after being attacked. 1t is also said
that before death, blood gushes from the
eyes, cars and noses of the victims.
These symptoms suggest that the disease
is not simple smallpox, but partakcs
rather of the nature of a plague.

WAsHINGToN, Dec. 2S.-Guiteau came
into court to-day looking paler than usual
and complained he had not slept well. II
seems a maniac, suffering from excessive
use of morphine, occupied a cell near
Guiteau last night, and his shrieks kept
the assassin awake. The latter was much
annoyed, and asked, "Why don't you
choke him and make him keep quiet, and
not let respectable people be disturbed
this way by miserable luratic?''
Dr. Mcdonald again took the stand and
was crOss-examined by Scoville, on the sub
Ject OF temporary insanity. The doctor
referred incidentally to certain man
whom he had known to be insane only
for twenty-fOur hours when ScOville
eagerly suggested, "And then he got we'll.
"No; he died - said the doctor, which
raised laugh at Scoville's expense. Wit

that he believed Guitcau was feigning in.

rein to his evil tendencies.
A recess was then taken.
After recess Scovillc brought in plaster
paris cast of Guiteau's head and proposed
to put Clark Mills, the sculp-
tor, ON the stand. This was OBJ
jected to, when Scoville put
hypothetical question to the last witness,
which embraced the clause, "Suppose the
prisoner believed himself to be a partner
with Jesus Christi
Mr.. Porter objected to the question as
blasphemOus and i disgrace to Christian
nation.
A scene ensued during which Porter, in
his most impressive manner, demanded
the name of the American people that the
prisoner be removed to the dock.
The prisoner meanwhile scOwled and
snarled ut those about him, shouting
" You big -mOuthcd Porter, aud threaten

Argument followed and Guiteau was
eventually removd to the dock.
