How beautiful are the above lines
uttered by the worlds greatest
mind! How infinite the scope of
mans power if his faculties are
well preserved. Nothing, short Of
creation, is to him impossible. Our
soul is lost in admiration when we
contemplate responsibilities of this
greatest exhibition of Infinite Pow
er. Yet what is this ''quint-essence
of dust" when blasted by disease
his noble functions perverted or de-
strOyed?
As 'sall men are born free and
equal" as far as moral rights are
concerned, so likewise we hold they
should be born physically, but as
long as children must suffer for the
sins of their parent this cannot be.
That the human race has deteriOr-
ated physically is conceded ques
ton. To restore it is an impOssi-
bility, as long as people persist in
immortality and induigences which
are in disregard of natures laws.
The most we can do then is to
ameliOrate this condition, and cure
disease in individuals.
To this end we offer to the pub
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 infallible rem
edy for all affections of the Liver
and Stomach, and is besides an in
valuable general tonic. The lat
ter is reliable cure for all ner-
vOus diseases and conditions, such
as Hysteria, SleeplessnesS, Nervous
Prostitution, Depression caused by
OyerwOrk, etc.
These remedies are extensively
prescribed by physicians, a recon-
mendatiOn which does not obtain
with any other proprietary article,
and command at the hands of the
druggists in New England a larger
sale than any other medicine.
IN HUNDREDS OF THOU
SANDS OF BOTTLES SOLD,
THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SIN
GLE COMPLAINT 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 tes-
timOniaIs which we will be pleased
to show, but which space prevents
publishing. The trial of one bot
tie will be sufficient to satisfy you
that we make no false claims. A
valuable pamphlet will be mailed

(which Way?'i

That every article used for the same purpose is
OF vital value no one admits. AS in all natural
productions, so in the manufactured; all have
their degree of merit, and Soap is as conspicuous
in its variety as anything else But in this as the
demand for the Pure and Reliable increases, so
does the value of the productions of CURTIS
DAVIS & Co., especially their "WELcoMEn and
'UNEQUALED EXTRA brands, being practically
recommended by other manufacturers, who imi-
tate them in every conceivable way. But, while
this compliment may be appreciated, what can be
said in favor Of such competition, the character
of such goods and their makers? No one should
be deceived, as the original has the name of CUR
TIR DAVIS, in full, either on the bar or wrapper,
and it is their purpose to let their reputation
stand on this class of goods

wilkinson at HarpsweII.

A Brunswick man who was in Bath the other
evening stated that portion of the winter of
1870 he was employed in logging crew at Harp
swell.sO zone of the men was Daniel Wilkinson, who
at that line was known by a different name. He
was so it is said quiet and gentlemanly APP
pearing man. When Wilkinson first came to the
camp to go to work he had with him, a young
dog of the breed known as setter, which he said
forwards a man from that city came to the camp
to get his dog having traced it to that place.
Wilkinson denied stealing the dog, but at the de-
parture of the dog and its owner he said he did
steal the dog and was intending to sell him.
"Wilkinson was good man to work and was
generally liked by all the crew." said the Bruins
wick man.

ions. Bijous.

Play was commenced at shortly after nine
o'clock, Mr.. Frank Barnes acting aeceptably as
referee. The first rush was won by Caviss of the
the Lewstons who sent the Gball flying over the
Bijou's goal cage. Tee ball was sent back to the
middle of the floor when Kelsey neatly caught it
and with long, clean shot lodged it In the Lew
iston's goal after half minutes play.
The second rush also fell to CaviSS, who set the
ball going, and things were lively during the
next minutes, both sides playing their level best.
Desmond made two splendid stops in this goal
but did not succeed in stopping the ball which
sent into the P0rtlands' cage by CaviSs. About a
minute was lost during this goal while skates
were refastened.
The Lewistons took the next rush, Stevens be-
ing the man to do it this time, but Kelsey, who
was everywhere and playing all the time again
sent the ball into the goal OF the visiting club, af
ter two minutes play.
Kelsey took the next rush and one-half minute
later made Skillful shot from the centre OF the
floor and won the Bilious their third goal for them.
This concluded the game, but the audience call
ed loudly for more and several exhibition goals
were played. The work of Kelsey and Desmond
was the feature of the evenings playing Des-
mond made number of brilliant stops with only
one missplay, and will prove a valuable man to
the team. He received good support from the
other members however. The Lewistons play
strong game and their rushers, Cayiss and Trip
are good men for the positions.

Catarrh i'm the Head

Originates in scrofulous faint in the blood Hence
the proper method by which to cure catarrh, is to
ourifa the blood. Its many disagreeable symp-
toms, and the danger of developing into bron-

are entirely fremoved by Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which cures catarrh by purifying the blood and
also tones up the system and greatly improves the
general health of those who take it.

but the den Walkure, Brunnhilde. Wotan
Is approachingi on appalling storm clouds
composed of painted mosquito-bar and blue
lights. The sheet-iron thunder crashes and
the orchestra is engaged in another mortal
combat with that revolutionary mugwump

into one of the proscenium boxes. The fair
occupants of the box are frightened and tim
idly shrink back. Wotan is at hand He
comes upon 700 yards of white tarletan and
fourteen pounds of kissing, blazing lycopo-
dlum. The pale, sad man at the other end
of the boomerangelungen explains his where
for. He applies his lips to the brazen mon
ster. His eyeballs bang out into his cheeks.
the veins rise on his neck, and the lumpy
cords and muscles stand out on his arms and
hands. Boohoop! boohoop-yes, six times
boohoop does that brazen megatherium
blare out, vivid and distinct above all the
other sixty instruments in the orchestra
Then the white tarletan clouds vanish, the
blazing lycopodium goes out, and Wotan
stands before the excited spectators. Then
the pale, sad man lays down the boomerang
elungen and goes home. This is all he has
to do; the six sonorous boohoops announcing
the presence of Wotan is all that is demanded
of the boomerangelungen. But it is enough;
it Is Marvellous, appalling, prodigious.
