Antifermentine is simple, harmless
preparation, free from taste, smell and
color, that has the property of stopping
and preOeRtjRg fermentation in all vegeta-
bic food. 1t is especially useful for pre-
serving fruit of all kinds, retaining the
natural fresh appearance and taste Of the
fruit. It's use does away with labor, and
makes what has been hot, disagreeable
task, delight and pleasure, 1t substi-
tutes for the summer heat of the kitchen,
the cool shade of the lawn or piazza. It's
results are never doubtful when used
according to directions, and Strawberry
Short Cake, and Peach and Berry Pies
can be had in winter as we'll as in summer
It's use is profitable and economical, for it
Sdces one-half of the sugar, saves the jars
broken by heat, SG0es the fruit cooked
away, and saves time and labor lost by the
old methods. One package will put up
30 quarts Of fruit. For sale by GEO. RULL-
MAN, agent, City Drug Store, Annapolis

If appreciation for brave, manly un-
selfish and heroic conduct is acknowl-
edged to be a just tribute towards the
memory of any one who risks and
sacrifices his life in the effort to CLEAN
scientific knowledge, that his fellow
man may be benefited, one can con-
ceive of no more appropriate occasion
to demonstrate such a feeling than
that which will be afforded the citi-
zens and authorities of Annapolis up
on the arrival of the remains of Lieut..
George Lockwood in this city on
Saturday next one of the Artic ex-
plorers, and who, for SO many years
had his being in the city of Annapo-
lis BY way of supplemental sug-
gestion we would advise that the
Naval Academy officials be requested
to participate in the funeral ceremon-
les; as also our military company

pie are dead to all sense of heroic ap.
probation.
