From tie Neao York Pharmaceutical Journal, Dec.
During visit to Boston month ago we devoted
an hour to call on Mr.. A. L. Murdock that we
might satlsfy ourselves more fully some of the
points we desired to know about the Liquid Food'
referred to in our pages on several occasions. We
visited the establishment and saw much of the pro-
cess, its preparation, and putting it in shape tor
distribution ON its errand of mercy. Cleanliness
was scrupulously deserved in every step OF the pro-
cess; the method is in strict accordance with science
and sound principles; and the product is in every
respect what is claimed for it as q thoroughly rep-
resentatve nutritious food of properties more heal
ing and nourishing than others.
look through the hospital satisfied us that its
merit in restoring health to the puny foundngs un
der the care of that Institution is not oyerstated
for we saw some that were apparently in splendid
condition, who when admitted were puny, sick, de.
MED with corruptive sores, and thought beyond
help. Their only treatment was "Murdock's LIQUID
Food and they bade fair to obtain as robust health
as the most favored.
Other cases we have seen in adults quite as mar
Velous. This article should never be forgotten
when such remedy is available or can be nsed with
propriety.

The only evidence so far disclosed against
Cunningham, the man arrested for compile
ity in the explosion in the houses of Parlia-
ment, is furnished by himself in the shape of
contradictory answers to questions which in
nocent men can and are willing TO answer
truthfully. That will be sufficient to hold
him upon until the London police have time
to hunt up evidence connecting him directly
with the explosion or to satisfy themselves
that no such evidence can be procured 1t
would not be surprising, if the police OBJ
tanned sufficient evidence to convince him
that the game is up, if he should initiate
Carey and give away the whole conspiracy.

One OF the accusations made against SEN
atol Garland by those who oppose his selec-
tion for Attorney General is that he is too
much under the influence of Senator Ed

haunted with perpetual dread lest in some
way the Republicans may succeed in dictat-
ing the policy of the incoming administra.

Mr.. John Boyle O'Reilly, speaking delib-
erately in the columns of the Boston Pilot,
adopts much less excusatory tone in re-
gard to the London outrage than he did
when speaking on the spur of the moment
to newspaper reporter. The moral of this
is that Mr.. O'Reilly should never speak on
the spur of the moment.

After amending it in some particulars the
City Council last night voted to petition the
legislature TO enact the bill for the appoint
ment of policemen prepared by the Civil
Service Reform Association. The principal
change relates to the appointment and re-
moval of the Marshal who under the new
draft is to hold Office at the pleasure of the
Mayor. This is as it should be. The Mayor
and Marshal are brought into SO close rela-
tions that it is for the interest of all con
cerned that they be in substantial accord.

THE VALUE OF
MURDOCK'S LIQUID FOOD.

Few realize the amount of suffering that exists in
city as large Boston. The population increases
faster than the accommodations of all of our many
hospitals. This is especially true of the surgical
wards for female internal operations. The defcien-
cy is so great that there is not bed empty in any
hospital and it has been for several months with
applicants sufficient to fill them for months to come
Two of our hospitals have each refused one hundred
applicants, which would fill all their beds for over
six months, provided they all empty today.
The Murdoch Liquid Food Company have added q
third house to their Free Hospital for Women and
Infants, office i b Causeway street, and have as
signed two wards. with more If needed for internal
operations. They offer their beds to any physician
who may want bed for private patient and they
can attend and operate on them and charge their
patient for the operation. The company will take
any patients build them up if too exhausted for an
operation, and then keep them after the operation
until restored sufficiently to return home free of
expense. Their object in doing this is to offer the
physicians OF the United States the facilities of
private house, which the physicians cannot now
command. as no other hospital will grant such priv
ileges, and their hospital has more home comforts
than hospitals in general, the wards contain from
one to eight beds and also to shoaD the Vale Of ratc
food, a0ch their liquid food is condensed and free
from insot6e matter oich enables them to save life
irhen all other foods and treatments fail.
And when other foods are avail.

NORTH VASsALBORO.

The Vassalboro and China camp-meeting
began Monday last and will continue through
the week and over next Sabbath, when an at
tachment of the Salvation Army will be pres
ent and conduct the meetings. More tents
have been erected this year than ever before,
and the prospects for an ENJOYABLE week are
very favorable. The ground is damp, how
ever, from the recent rains, making the camp
one of the best places to get cold that can be
found; with this exception everything is in
good order.-Mr ] &. Evans has sold his
horse to Samuel Williams of Massachusetts,
for the sum of $500, proving that raising
good horses is a paying business.-Ou deputy
sheriff was told one day last week while at
GetchelPs Corner, that a man had just gone
along with three barrels of the ''critter"
aboard, and that he could easily overtake him
if he would only try. Ever ready to enforce
the laws he gave chase and brought the man
to stop and proceeded to examine the sus-
picious looking barrels, and found the con-
tents to consist of charcoal for use in the
Oak Grove building. c.

The Fairs.

For two months now to come the time will
be fully occupied with State county and
town fairs. Of course one cannot attend
them all, but all should make it a point to
attend one or more. Fairs are educators !;
they offer opportunities for sight seeing,
study and comparison not afforded elsew here
All who can should take something along to
exhibit. This will help swell the display and
render competition keener. There are
doubtless many things about our fairs that
are, and be ready when the annual meetings
occur to show them up and ask for improve
ment. SO far as our observation goes
the managers of fairs are ready to
do the things necessary to improve
il properly approached and their attention is
properly directed to any abuse or commission
Growing is not as effectual as well directed
effort and cooperative labor. Generally the
first to find fault and throw clubs at any ag-
ricultural institution or organization is the
farmers certain portions-themselves. This
may arise from variety of causes, not the
least of which may be chronic habit. But
let the better and more progressive element
of the farming community 60 forward cheer
fully, cautiously, advisedly, and pay heed to
only doing their very best. In this wav
fairs will be a success, and will continue to
improve from year to year, and to work out
their true mission.
