STRONG
FACTSI

A great many people are asking
what particular troubles BROWNS
Iron BITTERs IS good for.
It will cure Heart Disease, Paral-
ysis, DrOpsy, Kidney Disease, Con-
sumption, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism,
Neuralgia. and all similar diseases.
Its wonderful curative power is
simply because il purihes and en-
inches the blood, thus beginning at
the foundation, and by building up
the system, drives out all disease.

The numerous fish exhibitions which

Beaten by Chicago.

A Toledo commercial traveller who has
been opening up a new route in Indiana
this winter encountered one dealer who
didn't think he had better change his Gus
tom. He had been dealing with a Chicago
ho1se for several years, and be had no
fault to find.
Il can make you brooms for S-per
Dozen" urged the Toledoan.
"Yes, but Chicago beats that.
-How's- cents a pound for stlrchf'
@Oh, Chicago beats that"
"T'll sell you good tea by the chest for
- cents.
That's purity fair, but Chicago beats
that"
'Our house will give you four months
credit"
"Chicagos ahead Of that
The traveller couldn't mention q thing
that Chicago didn't beat, and at last, des-
pairing of receiving an order, he remarked:
1 did think Of stopping over Sunday and
going to church, butt seems"
-Oh, it's no use in trying that on, inter-
rupted the dealer. THE agent Of Chica-

Sandwich Islanders in Swimming.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
Our guide had arranged for an exhibition
of the swimming powers of tho natives. and
upon our arrival we found several men on
the side of the fall where we took our stand,
while upon the other stood six or seven
dusky maidens. The water tumbles over a
series of natural bridges commencing high
up in the mouLtlin range. The main fall
is a sheet about twenty yards wide, and
with other smaller streams falls into cir
cirlar basin beneath at the debth
Of at least 100 feet. series Of
rude declivities have been cut
by the natives to a depth Of sixty or seven
ty feet. to enable visitors TO witness their
watery gambols. Our party wos perfectly
astonished at the way in which
these Kanalas dispolt5d themselves in
the water. Divested of all clothing, both
men and women would dive into the basin
or pool to a depth of thirty or forty feet
A coin thrown into water would be brought
up with the greatest rapidity. Some Of
the girls took up position on rock
which, to judge by eye measurement, was
at least sixty feet high, and jumped into
the basin with their bodies in rigid posi-
ton. Others again ascended TO the top Of
the fall and came down with the water IN
its descent. No nall wonder. indeed,
that the Kanakas are able 10 conquer the
sharks, which they do by getting under
their belly and ripping II open.

The Trade Dollar.

NAM Of our citizens have walked up to
the fact hat the trade dollar is not at this
time United States money, and they are
rapidly emptying their old stockings and
trunks of their deposits alta discount offrom
Is to 20 per cent. 1t is true Congress has
recently deprived it of its ycgal tender char
acter, nevertheless, it is iatrinSical,y worth
more than the standard dollar But whilst
Congress has repudiated it as currency, are
our citizens aware that the trade dollar is
still legaL tender in West Virginia? On the
22nd of February, 1877, the following act
was passed by our legislature and which
stands yet in force:
'Be it enacted by the Legislature Of West
Virginia.
lst. That the silver coin issued By the
Government Of the United States shall be a
Gqal tender for the epayment of0V debts here
totore contracted by The citizens cf this State,
and the same shall be received in payment
of all debts due tie ciiseas ofdtjs State, and
in satisfaction Of al tares levied by author
ity of the la,s of this State"
Why, therefore should our citizens, in
this State, at least, be losing any per cent on
their trade dollars? They are coin ISSUED
bv the Government of the United States" "

The Lancaster fPa.l Mguirer saws

The Lancaster PA Inquirer says;
DR.. 4. w. Cain who lives in Chester
county not far from Christiana, says he re-
Gently made very interesting experiment,
the result of which seems confmatcry Of
the theory of the famous English physician
who first promulgated the efficacy Of cream
of tartar as a smallpox antidote. The
doctor very naturally conceived that if the
drinking Of cream Of tartar dissolved in
water would almost Immediately give re-
lief to person afflicted with smallpox, it
would also dissipate the effects Of vaccina-
ton which had thoroughly taken. So pro-
curing some vaccine virus from Dr. Plank,
of Christiana, DR.. Cain vaccinated himself
and wife. Both vaccinations took finely.
When the swellings were at their height
and their arms sorest each drank pint Of
water. in which one ounce of cream Of tar
tar had been dissolved. In few hours
the swelling and soreness had entitely dis
appeared.
