Effects of q Spree.

Dio Lewis says any fellow can get
over the effects of a spree in a couple of
days, while a healthy Christian may
suffer for a week. Yes, and a person
suffering with Itching Piles may swear,
fret, break the l%ooking-glass, and call his
mother-in-law all sorts of pet names,
but there is no improvement until pur-
chases a box Of Swayne's Ointment and
applies it to the affected parts. 1t also
cures all skin diseases, and therefore
should have a place in every household.
All the leading druggists on this con
tinent have it on sale. Safe and relia-
BILE.

And the hose-what of the hose

And the hose-what of the hose
OF the ladies, when it blows?
We can see them, plain or striped,
On each buxom female biped,
When it blows;
As she trips across the gutter,
With her wrappings in a futter,
She is in a dreadful putter,
When it blows;
And she glows
Like a rose,
For she knows
That the menfoiks at the corner
Have their naughty eyes upon her
And her hose
Hose, hose. hose, hose, hose
Gosh almighty, how it blows.

The Cereals In Custer Ca

l.. B. Reno, who done most Of the
threashing on French, Beaver and Battle
creeks has kept books on the work and
kindly furnishes us with the following
figures which speak for themselves:
Number Of bushels. 22,320
Number OF acres....".."....".... 402
Average yield per acre, bushels. 55l
Pounds TO the bushel..........- Al
WHEAT.
Number Of acres, 20S; number Of

the yield which would otherwise have
been at last 33 bushels to the acre.
ARLEY
Number Of bushels, 1875; number of
acres Al average Weld, 282.

Number of bushels, So; number Of
acres, III average per acre %.
AS fully one-third of the crop was
planted in sod our eastern readers can
draw their own conclusions from the
above. Gov. Ordway in his annual
message or report to the secretary ofthe
interior gives the average yield of wheat
at from Is to 20 bushels. This report he
bases upon the yield from what is call
ed the great wheat belt Of the northwest
and constitutes eastern and northern
Dakota. A comparison will easily on
vince our eastern readers that the agri-
cultural county Of the Hills is to be
preferred to the great Red River valley.

curse may yet be averted. You will never

cannot earn an honest living, we shall not
at least fear to die. 1t has not been strange
that was slow to see the evil, for had

The old mill was never more opened
for cider making; Slas Warner never for
got his sick bed impressions, but the harm
was done, for his idol became a tippler
and drunkard 1t was not the work of
a month or year, but the habits OF boyhood
refused to be overcome. He went to
college, he studied for profession, he
was the favorite of all who knew him, but
his love of cider ruined his life. Notwth-
standing his mothers entreaties or his
fathers example, he could never do with
out his drink of cider, and after time the
thirst for something stronger was just as
imperative, until ambition, affection, all
noble impulses were killed. As he was
recovering from tit of intoxcation one
day. he was seized by remorse. and ac-
cused his father of working his ruin by
the example he had set him and the bust
ness he had followed.
II might have made good man,
might have been a prosperous, perhaps a
famous man for sometimes feel within
the longings after higher things-it it had
not been for that accursed cider MILL" he
said, and the rest of his fathers life was
made wretched by his words, which his
own conscience told him were too true.

1t will be apparent to any one, who will
examine SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside
from the necessary thickness for engraving
and polishing, large proportion of the
precious metal used is needed only to stiffen
and hold the engraved portions in place and
supply the necessary solidity and strength
The surplus gold is actually needless so far
as utility and beauty are concerned. In
JAMES BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH
CASES, this waste of precious metal is over
come, and the SAME soLIDITY AND STRENGTH
produced at from one third to one-half of the
usual cost of solid cases. This process is OF
the most simple nature, as follows: a plate
of nickle composition metal, especially
adapted to the purpose, has two plates OF
SOLID GOLD soldered one on each side. The
three are then passed between polished steel
rollers, and the result is strip of heavy
plated composition, from which the cases,
backs, centres, bezels, &c, are cut and
shaped BY suitable dies and formers. The
gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to adj
mi, of all kinds of chasing, engraving and
enamelling; the engraved cases have been
carried until worn perfectly smooth by time
and use without removing the gold.
THIS Is THE ONLY CASE MADE
WITH TWO PLATES OF SOLID GOLD
AND WARRANTED BY SPECIAL GER
TIFICATE.
