The Preventive of a Terrible
Disease. a a5r


No disorders. excepting the most
deadly forms of lung disease, involve
such tremendous destruction of or
ganic tissue as those which fasten upon
the kidneys. Such maladies, when they
become chronic-and none are SO liable
to assume that phase-completely wreck
the system. To prevent this terrible d.
sease, recourse should be had, upon the
first manifestation of trouble, to Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which expert
ence has proved to be highly effective
as means of imparting tone and regu-
larity to the organs of urination. as well
as to the liver, stomach and bowels.
Another beneficial result of this medi-
cine, naturally consequent upon its
dluretic action, is the elimination from
the blood of impurities which beget
rheu latism, neuralgia, govt, dropsy
and other maladies. By increasing the
activity OF the kidneys, it.augments the
depurative efficiency of these organs.
which are most important outlets for
the escape of such impurities.

Attend the County Fair.

The following from the Ohio Farmer
is so sensible that we give it, place in
the Norh,0est and would urge every
farmer in the county who. can, to act
on its suggestions: =. ,,asfnrr&
What arrang ents have you made,
reader TO support and encourage these
exhibitions of agricultural progress
this year? Do you take any interest in
these things?' DO you believe agricul-
turai fairs, properly conducted, are
promotiye of good, that they educate
the farmer and stimulate him to higher
aims and better results? If SO, is it not
your duty as well as privilege to aid in
the work of making them serve their
purpose to the greatest possible extent?
Did you ever think what made the
great difference ini county and local
fairs sometimes so apparent? Is it not
that one is supported by farmers who
are alive to the benefits that thus ac-
crue, while the other, lacking this sup
port, must make it up in side shows
and other amusements of a. doubtful
character? Generally speaking an
agricultural fair is to great extent
what the farmers make it. If they are
largely of the circus-going, beer-drink-
ing, amusement-l loving style, the mana
gers must cater to this taste; and be-
sides, such farmers have little of merit
to exhibit, and the fair is necessarily
weak as an exhibition of agricultural
methods, products, >etc. Amusement
and recreation are legitimate objects to
be secured in attending these annual.
shows, but they should be secondary to
the desire to gather information and
keep posted in the progress Of agricul-
ture and the arts relating TO it,. E .,0
Go to the fair. Take specimens of
the products Of your soil, your skill
and your hands. Take your families.
Examine the various exhibits. with the
view of treasuring up information that
will be OfYalue to you in Your occppa-
tion. Hunt up old friends and enjoy
their society. Let; ithel children take
part in innocent amusements that are
present, and twill do you mo harm to-
relax a little In that direction yourself.
Make d day of instruction, and enjoy
ment combined, and 60 home better
prepared to take up your work and
carry 1t to successful 3compietion. If
every wide-awake, progressive farmer
would support his local fair lin this
manner, they would become in fact as
well as name, agricultural fairs.s~ 4
