Another Great Cure by DR.. Gage.
STATEMENT OF oRRIN WEBER, ESQ,
OF MANCHESTER, N. II.

Editor Manchester linton Permit me
through your valuable journal to make
known to the public the marvellous cure
which has been performed upon my wife,
by DIR. Gage of Concord, N. H. For nearly
fourteen years she has been an intense
sufferer with Scrofula, which has defed the
treatment of n score of hysicians--among
whom are six of Manchester's best, two of
Goffstown, and others Of Concord and Bos-
ton. She had also used Negetine, Ayers
and Hoods Sarsaparilla, Fowle's Humor
Cure, etc, without benefit. We had almost
given up in despair, when we were induced
to try DIR. Gage. AT that time the sores
upon her limbs were fearful, and every day
seemed month of torture. Ulcers larger
than persons hand had eaten completely
to the bone, and the whole limb was a ter
rible sight to behold. Indeed no one
thought it possible for her to recover, after
1t existed so many years. Thanks to the
skill of DIR. Gage and our good friends who
persuaded us to try his treatment / am now
able, with profound gratitude to report her
complete reStoration-the sores all being
soundly healed, and not a vestige of the dis
ease remaining. We certainly have abun-
dant reason to be thankful, and would most
earnestly urge our friends and the afflicted
generally to consult this gifted physician.

helpless with spinal disease, could not move
foot even, and his kidneys and bladder
were so affected that he had used a catheter
about two years. DR.. Gage cured him and
never saw him until last week, when Mr..
Buffum visited the doctor at McIndoe's
Falls for the purpose of expressing his heart
felt gratitude to his benefactor in person.

A TREMENDOUS blast was fred near Santa
Cruz, Cal, a few days ago. The object was to
remove piece of mountain to make way for
a railway road-bed. There were 10000 cubic
yards of bluff to be removed. This was
covered with trees that have been there for
ages; rocks that have stood the ravages of
time for decades brush that had become
solid mass, defying the pickage to remove
a tunnel fifty feet long was run into the
mountain and formed T. The powder
was put in three magazines, connected by a
battery sixty feet in rear of the mountain.
When the blast was touched off the bluff
upheaved and tall trees and huge rocks
went helter-skelter, like lot of school
boys, from the mountain side into the river.
The quantity of powder used was four thou
sand five hundred pounds, and it did the
work so completely that not a particle of
sand, rock, redwood or pine was left to

AT Binghamton, n. V, the Phelps fam
ily vault, one of the costliest structures ei
the kind in the state, was entered by grave
robbers the other night, and the tomb OF
Robert A., son of the late Judge Phelps
was forced open. The robbers, five in num-
Der, were frightened away by detectives be-
fore they could remove the remains. A
suit is pending for 5000, the amount t,
body, and it Is thought by some that the
parties interested in the suit sought to as
certain how the embalming process had
been successful in preserving the body
Others believe that the object of those en-
gagged in the dissertation of the graves was
to steal the body and hold it for reward.

How repulsive is bad breath, and yet how
many otherwise attractive, polite and par
ticular people affiict their friends with the
foul odor Of their breath If there was nc
remedy for this, it might excite our sym
pathy, but as there is no need of having a
foul breath, it is an objectionable breach OF
good manners to obtrude such an offence on
good society. Foul breath ARISES from dis
ordered digestion, which can be corrected
by using Sulphur Bitters, and the result
will be a pure, sweet breath.
