TELLING LETTER
,. McDouga11, Ag'

Here is fact for YOU to think over, viz. :
Medical science proves that diseases, no
matter how great variety they seem to have,
proceed from comparatively few causes. IL
IL for this reason that some single medicines
relieve or cure so wide range of complaints
some OF them appearing almost directly
opposite ia their natures. When medical
preparation acts at once upon the digestive
and urinary organs, and also purifes the
blood. the list of difficulties subject to its
control IL astonishing. But, while many
things are said to possess this power, those
which actually do exert il are very rare.
Ii 10 conceded that Dr.. Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy, OF Rondout, N. Y, is the most
effective preparation now IN use for all dis
eases arising from, a foul or impure state of
the circulation. Hence it is more than likely
that If the writer ofthe following letter had
habitually taken "Favorite Remedy" ten
years ago, he would never have suffered
from Cancer.
Tttsfeld, Mass, March 90, 1884.
DR.. ID. Kennedy. Rondout, N. Y:
Dear Sr:-About six years ago 1 was
obliged TO resort TO external treatment for
the removal of n cancerous growth on my
lip. On my return home, became sensible
that my blood needed thorough cleansing.
My whole system, too, required toning mp.

do this, your "Favorite Remedy" was SO
highly commended in my hearing that / re.

surprised me, it was effected SO quickly and
completely. ] soon got over the depression
produced by the operation, and since the
"Favorite Remedy" which have continued
to take IN small doses, has kept me in such
health and strength as | never had before,
nor expected To have. IL Is the best blood
purifier In the world. / am sure of that,

has become more apparent that the man
who had conquered them in this nineteenth
century had conquered by a higher law
than that of military proves. He had
vanqui8hed bitter thoughts by magma
nimity, by a nobility of forbearance that
will more surely win the gratitude Of a
high-minded people than all the power Of
men at arms and cannon. So to this hon
ored dead the heart of the nation goes
forth-the entire nation. Now indeed a
union of brothers mourning for sad and
regretted calamity Brother by brother, as
the noble dead had wished them to stand,
side by side at his tomb. America has
talked much of progress, but the progress
Of the higher moral nature of our entire
nation was evinced more clearly last Sat-

ALetter of the Concord School.

We find ourselves in Concord, Mass, at
the opening Of the seventh term of the
School Of Philosophy, For a long time
we have been familiar with the town, its
famous citizens, its heroic chapters of
revolutionary history, as we'll as the river,
ponds and forests associated with the walks,
observations and poetry of Emerson, Chan
ming, Alcott, Thoreau and Hawthorne.
The gods must love this little village, for
hardly from its settlement, about 1880, has
it been left at any period, without some
thing to distinguish and draw the eyes of
the country upon it,
The School Of Philosophy is the legacy
of the old age of several Of Concord's wise
men. Mr.. Alcott conceived the idea Of
such school long ago, but never was able
to realize it until younger generation of
men began to cooperate with him. And
1t is this younger generation who are now
most actively engaged in the work of the
