A Wife's Trouble.

For number of years my wife has been
troubled with chronic rheumatism, it being
in some portion of her body constantly lex
cept perhaps in the very warmest weather in
summer). Last Christmas she contracted a
very severe cold, and diseased condition OF
the kidneys became manifest, which sub
iected her to excessive suffering, as the symp-
toms of gravel became more prominent, her
urine being colored accompanied by heavy
brick dust sediment.
After trying several remedies without re-
lief, l procured for her bottle Of Hunts
Remedy, which she commenced taking, and
before three days had passed she became much
better She continued using tho medicine
until she had used six bottles, and now feels
entirely cured of both rheumatism and kid
ney complaint. She believes her present eN-
celent health due solely to the use of Hunts
Remedy WILLIAM @. CLEAyELAND.
| NORWICH, CONN.,, May 8, 1888.
National Republican., 1883-09-01

after having stood awhile in the vessel the
urine showed very heavy deposit of sedi-
ment similar to ground brick dust, and, in
short, found that l was in such diseased
condition as to require immediate medical at
tention, and as / was anxious to obtain tho
best aud most speedy remedy, l looked and
inquired carefully, and became satisfied that
Hunts Remedy was an article of excellent
merit, and therefore concluded to give it q
trial. and commenced taking it, and before
had taken one bottle found such great inn
provement that / decided to continue its USE
and by taking only two bottles the resultihas
been most gratifying in giving me restored
health.
81 have ordered a supply Of Hunts Remedy
for my store, and shall hereafter have il for
SALE ms | consider it an excellent article for
diseases Of the liver and kidneys"

THE FROG CHILD.

A Curious Freak OF Naturc--one OF the
Hrost Extraordinary Monstrosities Ever
Seen.
A reporter of THE REPUBLICAN, visited the
frog child, Matthew Perry, who is now on
exhibition on 0 street, near Seventh street
northwest yesterday afternoon and boheld
one OF tho most extraordinary monstrositics
on record This child is said to be IL years
of ago, weighs nineteen pounds, and is eigh-
teeu inches in height Most monstrosities
present an unsightly appearance, but in this
case the child il so bright and lively, being
naturally smart that the general feeling is
of disgust is not felt The torelrmS and
hands ~ well as the feet and legs below the
knees, are exactly like those OF frog.
The face and head are slightly doformed
one eye being larger than the other while
tho mouth is that OF frog. When the child
opens its mouth it has tho appearance of a
frogs mouth. The palate is just beginning
to form. The cars are small, round, and i'll
shapen, and the child hops as near like a
frog as possible. The feet are cold and
clammy as y frogs, while the remainder oi
the body emits the same heat as other hui
man beings. The child is observant and
quick to understand and see all that is pass
ing about him. A doll was placed at the
further end of the table upon which he was
sitting, and he would then hop for it
Just like frog. He seems to enjoy
throwing away everything given him
Everything amuses him, and his antics are
comical to laughable degree. A lady pres
cnt took his hat saying, " am going to take
your hat away if you don't stand on your
head" The child gave her quizzical look
and then put his thumb upon his nose, and
expanded his fingers, forming the significant
and well known sign, "You can't come it,
The cause of this very peculiar malformaton
as stated by the father is that the mother
shortly before giving birth to the child, was
digging in the garden and dug up toad
which fell upon its back and commenced
kicking in its efforts to right itself.
The child, when on its back, makes the mo-
tions similar to the frog, when in like posi-
tion.
The father has four children besides this
one, but they are all right physically and men
tally. Showmen have made him offers, bu
they were not large enough to induce him t.
exhibit his child. Many people were presen
to see this odd piece of humanity.

Judge Lawrence rays tho accounts OF the
Contractor-WhatH He Says OF the Matter.
A REPUBLICAN reporter having learned
last evening that the vexed district garbage
contract had been patched up, pending the
hearing of the mandamus recently served
against the commissioners, called upon Judge
Lawren &C relative to the matter. The judge
said, in answer TO the reporters interroga-
tories, that the commissioners had made a
contract with Mr.. +. NJ Dranoy, the present
contractor, for one year.
What are the notifications" asked the
reporter.
Zone of them" he replied, is this.
There are $500 privies in Washington that
have no connections with the public sewers
Drany has reduced tho price of cleaning
privies from rs to 80 cents, besides other mod
ifcGtions of the original five-years' contract" :"
"Will the maudamus Interfere with the
prospective contractW
IL think not. However, that is not ques-
tion for me. The collection of garbage must
go on, especially at this season. The COM
mssioners have filed a contract with me, as
the law requires, and have paid the money
due for July"
"Will you pay it for Augusta"
Certainly, and for every other month as
| long as we have contract from the commits
sioners. If the contract is void, that is not
our lookout, 1t is n matter for the commits
! siOneTs."
