BRENNAN, Tex, March II, '83.
MessrS. Walker & Bell:
l bear cheerful testimony to the
great value of DR.. Tobin's "Hepato-
zone" In the spring of 1881, after
several months of low health, l was
completely Frustrated by what ulti-
mately eliminated IN the breaking Of
large abscess of the liver-discharg
ing through the lungs and throat, in
the spring of 1882. For more than
a year, under the most skillful
and constant medical treatment,
L was complete invalid, with
general dropsy, and terrible
heart troubles, in addition to the dis
ease of the liver. After the abScess
of the liver discharged and healed,
and the other distressing attendant
maladies disappeared, the crippled
condition of the liver has been such
that have been compelled frequent
ly to take medicines to stimulate it's
action and regulate its secretions.
About month ago l was induced to
try the HepatoZone, and i have found
it the very remedy needed. 1t acts
upon the liver, and regulates it's secre-
lions without any unpleasant effects;
no nausea, no gripping, no interference
with diet or digestion, and is tonic in
effects. l believe it to be most val
liable remedy. j. d. MCADoo.

Are Our Sheep Improving.

The report of the department of
agriculture gives the number of sheep
for 1861 as 21,5O0,0OO and the produc-
ton of wool as 100000 pounds.
This gives an average fleece of 255
pounds. In 1870 there were -, 100000
of sheep, and 130,0O0,0OO pounds of
3.97 pounds, and is gain of Sc per
not look like a backward movement
ia this industry. A gain of 50 per
cent. in ter years ought to be conSid-
cred very good progress. There has
been no report from the department
as to the production of wool during
the period between 1870 and 1880, but
there has no doubt been steady pro-
gress during the last decade. Sheep
are kept for wool and carcass, and
this large increase in the production
of wool indicates corresponding in
crea in the weight of carcass. We
must therefore conclude that our
tlocks are making satisfactory pro-
gress. This progress is largely attri-
buted to the use of purely-bred Meri-
no rams upon the rough, thin-wooled
n tive ews of Colorado, California and
Texas, as well as of the Western states
generally. And, with this desire to
improve the form of the sheep, has
come clearer perception of the rela-
tion of feed and growth. The modern
sheep farmer who has studied his
business, is now well aware that a
large finely formed animal represents
generous and judicious feeding

Dear Sirs-Your HepatoZone has
had a rather extended trial in this in
stitution, among officers and pupils;
it has proven safe and certain rene
dy in affections of the liver. 1t is
also valuable and cheap aperient.
1t removes constipation of the bowels,
relieves indigestion, and can be taken
at any time without any bad effect.
l cheerfully recommend its use in ali
cases involving arrangement of the
functions of the liver, and in many
cases where the stomach and bowels
are involved. Truly yours,

How to Tell Good Butter.

Mr.. Robert Hall, an Ohio butter in
spector, says that where butter is
properly churned, both as to the time
and temperature, it becomes firm with
very little working, and it is tena-
cious; but its most desirable state is
waxy, when it is easily nodded into
any shape, and may be drawn out a
considerable length without breaking.
1t is then styled gilt-edge. 1t is only
in this state that butter possesses that
rich nutty flavor and smell, and shows
up rich golden yellow color which
imparts so high a degree of pleasure
in eating it, and which increases its
value many fold. 1t is not always
necessary. when it smells sweet, to
taste butter in judging it. The
smooth unctuous feel in rubbing a
little between the finger and thumb
expresses at once its rich quality; the
nutty smell and rich aroma indicate a
similar taste and the bright golden
glistening cream-colored surface
shows its height of cleanliness. 1t
may be necessary at times to use the
trier, or even use it until yon become
an expert in testing by taste, smell and
rubbing.

imitation Baking Powders,

To the Public:
The public is cautioned against the
practice of many grocers who sell
what they claim to be Royal Baking
Powder, loose or in bulk, without
label or trademark. ALI such pow
ders are base limitations. Analysis of
hundreds of samples of baking pow
ders sold in bulk to parties asking for
ROYAL have shown them all to be
largely adulterated, mostly with
alum. dangerous for use IN food, and
comparatively valueless for leavening
purposes.
The public is too well aware of the
injurious effect of alum upon the sys-
tenn, to need further caution against
the use of any baking powders known
to be made from this drug; but the
dealers assurance, "Oh, its just as
good as Royal" or 'it's the genuine
Royal. only we buy it by the barrel,
to save expense of can" ETC., is apt to
mislead unSuSpecting consumers into
buying an article which they would
not knowingly use in their food I'M
der any consideration. The only
safety from such practices is in buy
ing baking qowder only in the origi-
nal package, OF Q well-known brand,
and a thoroughly established repu-
tation.
The Royal Baking Powder is sold
only in cans, securely closed with tae
company's trademark label, and the
weight of the package stamped on
each cover. II; is never sold in bulk,
by the barrel, or loose by Weight or
measure. and all such Offered the
public under any pretense, are imi-
tations.

Mullen as a Cure for Consumption


A correspondent writes as follows
about the flower of a well known
plant: Il have discovered remedy
for consumption. 1t has cured a
number of cases after they had COM
menced bleeding at the lungs and the
hectic flush was already on the cheek.
After trying the remedy to my own
satisfaction, l have thought philan-
thropy required that l should let it
be known to the world. 1t is COM
mon mullen stepped strongly and
sweetened with coffee sugar, and
drank freely. Young or old plants
are good, buried in the shade and kept
in clean bags. The medicine must be
continued from three to six months,
according to the nature of the disease.
1t is very good for the blood vessels
also. 1t strengthens and builds up
the system instead of taking away
the strength. 1t makes good blood
and takes Inflammation away from
the lungs. 1t is the wish of the writer
that every periodical in the United

publish this recipe for the benefit of
the human family. Lay this up and
keep it in the house ready for use.'

RELIGIOUS NOTES AND CHURCH
CHIMES.

The church missionary society
(Anglican) in India, numbers 100000
communicates.
The Episcopal convention of Vir-
ginia has decided in favor of sepa-
rate organization for the colored peo-
pie.
In the Protestant Sunday schools
of Philadelphia, it is said that
there are 10000 teachers and schol-
arS.
The Baltimore Methodist preachers
meeting recently discussed the sub
ject of fairs and festivals in churches,
and the sentiment was adverse to
them.
The statement that the collections
for the pope had fallen off, because OF
the action of the head of the church
as to Irish affairs, is denied, and it is
claimed that there is no falling off.
English Presbyterians have taken
an important step in the direction of
changing the phraseology, if not of
modifying the doctrine of the con-
fession of faith. In reference to this
movement the Rev. Robert Service, a
GlasgLW divine connected with the
established church of Scotland, writes
to a London paper stating that
'there are many ministers and still
greater number of members of the
laity in Scotland who are most anX-
ious to have change in the confess
sion" One of the doctrines most OBJ
iected to is that of endless punish
ment. Apropos of this doctrine
the Rev. Edward White has made
his voice heard in condemnatory
tones of the meeting of the congrega-
tional union and seeks to reform the
sentiments of the union in this par
ticular; and now, writing from the
standpoint of high churchman, the
Rev. Archer Quincy declares that the
church, Catholic or universal, has
never decreed or acknowledged the
endlessness of evil or the endless
duration of the pains of hell, and
thinks that "the time has come to say
dist, city that this is none other than
the arch-lie, the falsehood of false
hoods, which blasphemes the true and
living God" On all hands, even
among the clergy, there is growing
disposition to reject the doctrine of
the eternity nf nIlniShmnnt
