For General Debility.

DASFoRrH, Me-. Oct. 2, 1877.
Mr.. stevens-Dear Sir: My health has always been
poor. Have taken great many kinds of medicine,
but never took any that could begin to help me like
Negetine. One year ago last March had lung fever,
and it left me very feeble for long time. could do
very little work, and it hard for me to do that
little. had never heard of Vegetine One day saw
the advertisement in paper, and felt that if could
get it, it would help sent next day and got one
bottle and before had taken it all could see good
effects from it. After taking few bottles could do
o good washing have taken seven bottles. Am 6b
years old; never was well in my life and never so
1eshy for which feel grateful TO you and to our
Heavenly Father recommend it to all around me,
for prize 1t above all other medicines Respectfully
yours, MRS. L. r. HOWARD
Thousands will bear testimony (and do it voluntari-
Ivy that Vegetne is the best medical compound yet
placed before the public for renovatng and purifying
the BLOOD Graduating all humors impurities or pois
onous secretions from the system, invlgoratng aud
strengthening the system debilitaied by disease; in
fact it is, as many have called it, 1.-THE Great Health
Restorer."

OCCUPATION FOR INvALIDs.-I venture to
sugg st one which l think is not known in
England, viz, the ravelling out of pieces of
silk which are to be again woven into rugs or
counterpanes. The smallest pieces Of silk are
useful, and it is an employment not without
charm. or course it is u work of time and
patience; but every morsel Of ribbon or silk
can be used. 1t may be faded, but should not
be soiled 1t is best for the pieces to be about
two inches square. The colors mot the
shades should be kept separate: but there
may also be general mixture of odds and
ends to form the border, whereas the distinct
colors will be woven in stripes. For rug il
requires four pounds of ravelled silk for a
cou4tl.pare one must have ,ix pounds I
need hardly say they are delightfully."- soft and
comfortable | know one paralyzed old gen.
tleman who made this his last winters occu-
patton. Friends must be asked TO save their
ribbons, neckties, pieces of silk, however old
and the work once begun, it is rarely one has
to wait for supply of material / presume
any ordinary weaver would undertake TO
weave the silk. We send it to Vienna. and a
counterpane costs about eleven shillings max
ing. This ravelled silk can also be spun and
knitted into stockings. The peasant women
here know how to spin and dye: ard friend
of mine who has knitting machine keeps
her grandchildren supplied with stockings
made from this ravelled silk. Rag carpets
need not be woven, but may be crocheted
with IA large wooden hook, in strips not too
wide, and afterward sewn together with
strong twine.
Never try to raise a family without good newspa-
per, provided it contains the advertisement Of Dr.
Bulls Cough Syrup; for this valuable medicine is
necessary TO Keep your children in good health.

There is growing disposition among New
England farmers not to rush their crops to
market as soon as harvested, when by hold.
ing them back there is a chance to get better
prices. This is good sign. The main diff
hcuity IS that western competition makes it
hard to judge accurately as to the future Of
the market. Thus those who sold their po,a.
toes early this year got better prices than arc
now paid The habi; of keeping posted in
the markets and of learning and practicipp
cooperation is worth cultivatiug in these DAYS
Of sharp eompetition. -Womostead.

Red Hair.

Peck's sun.
In cutting up an oak tree in Maine,
lock of red hair was found so far in.
side the tree that it is estimated the
hair was put in the tree, two hundred
and forty years ago. 1t was probably
cut off and put in there by sensitive
girl when red hair was out of style,
and a red haired girl was laughed and
twitted about the sanguinary color OF
her head covering. We are not 24O
years old, but can remember when a
red headed girl was burden to her.
self, because her hair gave her away.
A young man had to have a good
deal of independence who would es-
cort a red haired girl anywhere, and
the girls invariably became old maids.
1t would have been a picnic to those
girls if they could have lived
about these days. when a girl with
beautiful red hair is considered about
the sweetest flower in natures garden.
Now that we remember it, the red
haired girls always were good looking,
and smarter than chain lightning, and
it is COMPOUNDED shame they didn't
come into style years ago. They are
not cutting off their hair and burying
it NOWADAYS.

The general public has long conced

new rival has sprung up in the rail
road ticket agent, as was demonstrated
in an Iowa station few weeks ago.
81 want ticket to B." said a well
known lady of the town, just before
the train was due.
"Twenty-four cents" responded the
agent, working his sausage machine.
She laid down a silver quarter.
Being well acquainted, and a practical
joker. the agent drew from his pocket
a slittering pants button and passed
it over with the ticket, and scooped
up the quarter.
'Is this legal tender p asked the
lady, quietly.
"Oh, yes" he answered, with mock
gravity; ''they are the mainstay OF
the republic"
She pocketed it and got aboard,
leaving the agents face cOruscatlng
with smiles. A few days after he
told it to a brigade of runners buying
tickets to B, and while he was
enjoying the encore the lady appeared
with
"Ticketfr B please"
"Twenty-four cents" with a sly
wink at the runners. He laid down
the ticket. She scoopei it and laid
down twenty-four dazzling pants but
tons, exactly like the first.
"YOu said they were legal tender.
They 90 long wsys in supporting d
family" she chirped, sweetly. as she
bowed from the presence of more than
presidential prerogative.
