PiTTSBURG. March 1.-The great strike

The biegost fight VIII be made III the fourth
pool, and a mass-meeting of miners will be
Lel at Coal Center. Every pit in the pool,
So far as heard from, is idle, and at tho
meeting it is confidently expected that it
will oe unanimously dociioi to join in the
strike. In that pool, on account OF softer
coal and easier mining, the price ruloa at
4 4 cent per bustel less than the pools lower

LIQUID BREAD.
AN ABSOLUTELY PURE EXTRACG OF
MALT.
a VALUABLE TONIC AND REMEDIAL
AGENT,
INDORSED AND RECOMMENDED BY THE
ENTIRE MEDICAL FRATERNITY.

of all medicinal preparations that have been put
upon the market in recent years, the extract %
malt has proved itself one OF the most valuable
a tonic or remedial beverage. 1t has received
the unqualified recognition and support of ply
sicians, and is freely prescribed by them in many
cases, especially where the nervous or physical
systems have been impaired by disease or over
Ork. The house of DAVID NICHOLSON"
of this city, has recently introduced pure malt
extract OF high character, made at their request
and under their suggestions by Mr.. Adolphrs
Busch, and which is popularity known mich

''W. F. COULTrR r., Esq, NatiOns Druggist-~Dear
Sir: Having submitted the Nicholson malt ex-
tract TO examination. requested, take pleasure
in reporting that find il all that the pro-
prietors claim for it. The results, as shown In the
following summary, are necessarily only approx
mate, but are sufficiently accurate for all practical
purposes.
The specimens submitted consisted of an
eHervescing fluid, dark brown by direct and of
deep ruby color by transmitted light, resembling
in general appearance and behavior very supe-
r1or article OF porter, Its taste was, however,
much mllder and more pleasant than porter, be-
ing somewhat sweeter than beer, the sweetness
masked and covered by a very pleasant bitter,
derived evidently from hops. The specific gravity
OF sample fresh 4. ON the bottle is 1.022 plus.
Amount of eXtractive matter in so cubic cent?
metres of the fluid is 1886 grammes, or about per
cent Amount of alcohol, per cent. is 2.s4 plus.
The eNtractve matter is apparently Identical with
the ''extractum maltis' of TrOmmer, or Of the
German PharmacOpCeia. 1t consists almost
ttrely of malt sugar, dextrine, being free from
fatty acids, etc. The fluid contains very large
amount OF diastase, as shown by the fact that ii
easily liqueties equal bulk of gelatinous starch.
This fact, its low percentage of alcohol it's efer-
Vescence its delightful taste and odor, all combine
to recommend NfchOlson's malt extract as being
most nourlshing beverage, and the best article
of the sort that has come under my exami.

The greatest danger to which young
pigs are subject is overlooking. A pig
at weaving has very small stomach
ana very limited powers of digestion,
and yet these young animals are per-
mitted TO gorge themselves with sour
milk and meal slops as soon as they are
weaned, until their sides are swollen.
This overlooking produces indigestion,
with disorder of the brain, or so.called
staggers; nervous disorders, with par
alysis or epilepsy; the growth is ar
rested, the breath is fetid, the teeth be
come black, and some people ignorantly
believe that black teeth is dong it all.
The teeth are knocked out with stone
or bolt in rough manner, and the
mouth is made SO sore that the pig re-
fuses TO eat for awhile, and then she
RECEIVERS from the abstinence. So that
the presence of the teeth is claimed to
be he real cause of the disease; they
are symptom of it only, and when
the health is good the teeth are all
right. Had the pigs been fed moder-
ately, and not given all they would
cat, the trouble would have been avoid
cd. Half pint at a time of sweet
skinned milk is sufficient meal for a
weaned pig.-Farmer's CaH

Amputation of the Leg.


Money Is the universal necessity, and none but
cynic or o fool will arect TO despise IL. Mr..
Abram Ellsworth, of Port Even, Ulster County, n.
Y, had realized this truth. His disease involved
the whole OF his thigh-bone, and the suffering
man looked forward, not without apparent reason,
to death as his only delivery. The family physi-
clans refused to amputate the limb, asserting that
the operation would kill the patient on the spot.
Or. Dduid KENNEDY, OF Rondout, N Y, who was
consulted, held different opinion and amputated
the lint. The Doctor then administered freely
his great Blood Specific FAoRITE REMEDY to
AFFORD tone and strength to the system and pre-
vent the return of the disease, and Mr. Ellsworth
remains to this day In the bloom OF health. This
gentlemans disease was the offspring OF foul
blood and Kennedys EAvoRITE REMEDY purl-
fed the blood and restored the blood and restored
to him the power once more to enjoy his life Are
you suffering from any disease traceablc to the
same cause Try Favorte Remedy. Your drug
gist has It. ONE DOLLAR bottle. Bear In mind
the proprletor's name and address Dr. David
Kennedy, Rondout, N. Y
TO keep the blood pure Is the principal end OF
Inventions and discoveries in medicine. TO this
object probably no one has contributed more sig-
nally than Dr. David Kennedy, OF Rondout, N. Y,
in the production OF a medicine which has become
famous under the title OF the "FAVORlTE REM
EDY." 1t removes all impurities of the Blosd, reg
ulates the disordered Liver and Kidneys, cures
Constipation, Dyspepsia and all diseases and
weaknesses peculiar to females.

A Georgia Willow Farm.

A flying trip recently TO the osier
willow farm of l. 9. Plant, mile be-
low the city presented a surprise. In
building on the premises were num-
Der of negro women and boys at work
stripping the bark aud leaves from the
willow switches. This is the first cut
ting of the crop of two years growth,
and the yield will be two or three tons
These switches are from four to seven
feet long, and are cut and placed in
bundles like sheaves of wheat. They
are then taken to the stripping building
and placed in vat filled with water.
The large ends are then placed in a
peculiar little machine, which loosens
the bark for a couple of inches. Pass
ing along on the table they are placed
one by one in the shippers, little ma
chine, the invention Of Mr. Plant, and
with pair of pliers are pulled through
with one jerk. This process takes off
all the bark and leaves. The switches
are then wiped off with woolen cloth
by passing them through the hand.
They are then bundled and laid away to
dry. The little contrivance used for
stripping performs its work admirably.
Mr.. Plant sent to Switzerland and the
willow farms in the North and West
for machines, but all were crude and
worked unsatisfactory. lie set about
and soon made one for the purpose
which does its work rapidly and effect
ually. All the leaves and bark are
dried and baled, and command price
of 25 cents per pound. They are used
for certain kind of medicine. Mr..
Plant has 100000 willows now growing
on his farm. He has within the past
week set out 10000 and are growing
finely. He will set out his entire levee
with them, and will then have sixty
acres in willows alone. A ton to the
acre is the average yield, and the viii
lows, when shipped dried, command
5000 per ton in dozen markets. In
three years all he has set out now will
be high enough to cut. The willow
farm is success throughout, and Col.
E. G. Grier, who was looking at it
says the bark and leaves alone,
to say nothing of the valuable
switches, pay better than cotton

How to Break a Balky Horse.

A correspondent of the Country
Gentleman gives recipe for the cure
of balky horse, which may be well
worth trying: When horse balks ia a
wagon, cart or carriage, have him
taken out, the harness taken off, except
the bride, boy or man put on the
animals back, with instructions to
make him move lively for ten minutes
up and down the road. AT the expira-
ton of that time ] put on the harness
and hitch up, and the animal goes all
right. 1t may have to be done once
ore twice more, whenever the hitchup
after meals takes place. a farmer
near me latt Summer had a nice young
4-year-old horse, which worked steadily
from Spring to midsummer; then the
horse, having had long rest, when
put to work again, refused to draw.
He tried him some days, and then told
me that he was going to send that
horse to Baltimore to be sold, because
it would not work. | told him what
to do. Three days after | saw him
again, and he said that he followed my
directions and the horse worked ali

ride. have seen horses strapped and
thrown down several times in success

York man living in this section three
years ago, if his horse would not pull,
would jerk out a fence stake and strike
the horse over the head and knock it
down. Once | went out and offered
to buy the old horse, to save it from

For Dyspeptics.

Something for those who have weak
and dyspeptic stomachs, that | know
from experience is good.
When the stomach becomes weak, in
famed, or liberated, we must eat the
food most easily digested, and go back
to the diet of infancy and feed upon
milk until the stomach RECEIVERS its
strength. Boiled milk, with lime water,
is the most easily digested Raw
milk contains sugar, and is apt to sour
on the stomach When the stomach is
greatly infamed, use only few tea
spOonsful at time, and take it often,
say every two hours. As the stomach
gains strength, eat little boiled rice,
or farina, small quantity of chicken
or mutton broth, or beef tea. For
several months I have made my break
fast of two teacupfuls of boiled milk,
taken as hot as | could, and have eaten
nothing else. For dinner l have lit
tie tea, cup of milk with piece of
toasted bread on it, and for supper the
same; sometimes l use rice, oat meal,
farina, or toast water in the place of
toast. For fruit, I eat bananas, as this
is all the fruit | can eat until later in
the season, when | eat grapes, almost
living on them. Butter or fat meat
is one of the worst things people can
put in their stomachs. / seldom eat
meat, bat drink the broth, which / al
ways save. BY taking care of my diet
get along comfortably, but as soon
as | overeat | have headache and sour
stomach. Some of you dyspeptics, try
my remedy, and tell me If you do not
feel better. When any of the lower
animals suffer with disease of the
stomach, they instinctively stop eating,
and we ought to know as much as they.
Give your stomachs rest. More
people die of ovcreating than ever do
of starvation.
