That the human race has deteri0rated physically is conceded question. To re- store it is an impOssibility, as long as people persist in ilnmOr- ality and indulgencies which are in disregard of natures laws. The most we can do then is to ameli0rate this condition and cure disease in individuals.
 To this end we offer to the pulp lie remedies which have done more gOod, accomplished better results in OyerthrOwing disease than any others which have been discovered up to the present time, viz:
 DIR. FLOWERS LIVER AND STOMACH SANATIVE AND NERVE PILLS.
 The former is an infaliibie rem edy for all affections of the Liver and Stomach, and is besides an invaluable general tonic. The latter is reliable cure for all nervous diseases and conditions, such as Hysteria, Sleeplessness, Nervous Prostration, Depression caused by OyerwOrk, etc.
 These remedies are extensive Iy prescribed by physicians, Q recommendation which does not obtain with any other prOprie- tary article, and command at the hands of the druggists in New England largr sale than any other medicine.
 IN HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF BOTTLES SOLD THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE LECOMPLAINT THAT THEY FAILED TO DO WHAT IS CLAIMED FOR THEM. This we hold is an unparalleled record Of success, and the strongest proof of their excellence. As positive evidence we have thousands Of testimonials which we will be pleased to show, but which space prevents publishing. The trial of one bottle will be sufficient to satisfy you that we make no false claims. A valuable pamphlet will be mailed free upon applica- tiOn.

ORIGIN Of raE ORANGE.

The orange was not known to the
ancients who lived q few centuries be-
fore the Christian era. 1t is native
OF China, with which the heroic Greeks
and Romans had scarcely any inter-
course. This fruit did not come into
Europe until the sixteenth century,
and the first orange tree ever seen In
England was Ia 1896. Some accounts
credit the Portuguese with import ng it
othe9s say that the Moers, who overran
Spain In the middle ages, brought the
orange from Arabia. planting It largee
II 1t Seville, and that Its cultivation in
Sicily, Rome, and the south of France
followed. Hence the term "China
orange" at once names the fruit and
mentions from what country it came.
Il is believed that the lemon was Guilt
waited In Italy 1000 years before the
China orange. No doubt both fruits
comes from Asia.
