What the Birds Know About Cholera.
London Nature

A correspondent writes to us that
he has received from a resident of
Zlgazag, in Egypt, curious fact con-
corning cholera, which, if not noticed
before, may be of interest. The resi-
dent stated that the town of Zag;izag
was perfectly healthy, and that the
swallows and sparrows were fiyln
about as usual, and so long as they re-
manned he considered they were quite
secure from any attack, but when
they left it would not be long before
he followed them. He remarked fur
ther that the little birds had been OBJ
served by old hands to depart before
the approach of cholera during the
last four epidemics. Our correspond
ent asks what can be the cause of
this, and we shall be glad if any of
our readers can answer the question.

HEPATOzONEG
DR.. TObin's Great Liver Medicine.
Cures diseases Of The Liver In all its
Various Furma.
Sueh as Dyspepsia, Hesaache, Neural
gia, Water Brash, Constipation, or
any Irregularity Of the Bowels.

This is d combination of Saline and
vegetable materials, and contains no
mercury or any drastic vegetable ca
thartic, such IS mandrake and aloeS,
and is far superior in its action, as it
never debilitates or produces any un-
pleasant effects, it will remove all dis
eases incidental to disordered state
of the liver and is therefore recon-
mended in all liver complaints. 1t

from two to four hours time and does

AUSTIN, TEX. May 8, 1882.
Drs. j, j, & w. Fl, robin:
Dear Sirs-Your Hepatozone has
had rather extended trial in this in
stitution, among officers and pupils;
it has proven a safe and certain RENE
dy in affections of the liver. 1t is
also u valuable and cheap aperient
1t removes constipation of the bowels,
relieves indigestion, and can be taken
at any time without any bad effect
| cheerfully recommend its use in all
cases Involving arrangement of the
functions of the liver, and in many
cases where the stomach and bowels
are involved. Truly yours,
JOHN FORD. Supt.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1883-08-23
From One of Austin's Leading Ply
sicians.

DIR. Tobin:
Dear Sir-You will remember that
some time ago | remarked to you that
suffered from an uneasy, painful
feeling in my right side, caused by a
congeSted condition of the liver,
which prevented me from riding on
horseback and engaging in violent
exercise of any kind. You then told
me that you had suffered from a smi-
lar affection of the liver, and had
cured yourself by using certain medi-
cinal herbs which you had discovered
and urged me to try them. 1 did so
and am now well. These medicinal
herbs in conjunction with salines you
have since presented to the public
under the name of "Tobin'S Hepato-
zone" In doing SO you have con-
ferred great boon on people living
in hot, semi-trOpical climate like
ours, where diseases of the liver are
so prevalent. 1t is the daily expe-
rience of every physician to find peo-
pl, running their constitutions by the
excessive use Of ST ong mercu-
rial purgatives. A still larger
number constantly use so-called "liver
regulators" mostly composed of
aloeS and other drastic purgatives,
which only tend to produce piles and
other troublesome affections of the
lower bowels. To all such sufferers
your medicine will be an invaluable
aid in restoring them to health again,
and feel assured that it only re-
quires to be known to be appreciated,
and that people will cease destroying
their constitutions by the reckless and
dangerous abuse of mercurials now
in vogue. Hepatazone contains no
hurtful drug, and yet it is signally eff
ficient as liver medicine. | may re-
mark just here that l am not violat-
ing medical ethic in truthfully giving
you my opinion OF a medicine which
l have used myself with benefit, the
formula of which you did not hest
tate to show to me. Above all, it af-
fords me greatipleasure to know that
you have placed your medicine (com-
posed only of costly drugs within
the reach Of the poorest man or wo-
man.

A DAUGHTERS Misery,

The Railroads in 1882.
From the New York Herald.


1t is sometimes questioned whether
in their haste to open up new parts OF
the country to settlement and produc.
ton by means of railroads, our peo-
pie do not lock up capital too rapidly
in investments which cannot make
for some time suitable return. An
investment in the equipment of a
railroad is fixation of capital, and ii
has been rapidly increasing since 1879
The figures to be found in POor's
Manual, which is about to be printed
are not very favorable to those
who expect high profits from this
class of investments. The course of
construction, liabilities and earnings
during the last four years are shown
in the following table:

DTs Tobin:
Your "Hepatozone" as a gentle
purgative has no equal. 1t moves
the bowels without making the pa
tient feel sick, weak or languid. 1t
is often the case that we feel little
bilious, have some headache perhaps,
and are feeling unwell generally, and
only need an easy purgative to relieve
US; your "Hepatozone" is the medi-
cine for that condition. l relieved a
case of dysentery with it in very
short time. We use it largely in this
institution. FRANK RA,NEY,
