A MAN WHO SUFFERED MENTAL AND
PHYSICAL AGONY EIGHT YEARS PRO-.
CLAIM HIS HAPPINESS.
Mental agony is dreadful, but when that
and physical ailment combine, it is simply
terrible. Such was the condition of Geo.
w. Frampton, of Huntington, w. Va,
for eight years. He was a sufferer of me-
croses-that is, the leg bone at the ankle
was infamed and mortified, which caused
running sores. He says: "Pieces of bone
the size of a silver three cent piece came
out of the sores on my leg. The discharge
from the sores was almost continual, and
/ was unable to walk. For eight years /
have been doctoring. l had been under
the treatment of a physician at Newport,
KY, for a year; another at Burlington, O.,
attended me for three years, and a doctor
here at Huntingdon worked with me for
a long time. None of them did me any
good, and they all finally said my case
was hopeless. A few months ago / com
menced trying PERUNA, and now / am
well. I can walk as good as anybody,
and have perfect use of my limbs"
Mr.. ALI. Lusk, Wooster, Ohio, writes:
CDR. HARTMAN, Columbus, O. have
been a great sufferer from that dreaded
disease, chronic catarrh of the stomach.
I have thoroughly tried your MANALIN,
and it has done me more good ten-fold
than all the doctors prescriptions, and /
have used legions of them.
MI. Edgar Harte, Smeltzer P. O., Elk
county, Pa, writes: 81 have bought sew
eral bottles of your PERUNA, and find it
to be of great benefit. / also gave it to
some of my friends; they experienced
the same result"
MI. L. R. Wollen, As and AZ Ross
street, Pittsburgh, Pa writes: III am TAX
ing PRRUNA with good results, and can
highly recommend it to all. ! have ap-
piled at the different drug stores for one
of your books. They claim they have
none on hand at present. Please do me
the favor to send me one"
w. w. Russell, druggist, Canonsburg,
Pa, writes: l handle your medicine,
PERUNA. / have sold immense quantities
of it, and consider it a staple article. L
have a great many customers who think
there is no medicine like it for a tonic or
for building up the system. | recon-
mend it as a safe and reliable remedy"
Calista Fishel, Malvern, Ohio, writes
81 take pleasure Recommending the use
of PERUNA and MANALIN to any n
afflicted with any form of lung or bron-
chial trouble. I have been for some time
afflicted with a very troublesome cough,
but a few bottles of PERUNA entirely
cured me-"

ANA 49,
The Bald win apple was very sound and
handsome. The Dominic was a fine late
one. The Gloria Mundi is a winter apple
of tremendous size and quite perfect
growth. But the late winter apples par ex-
cellence are the Russetts. They are medium
sized and compact and hard in the fall. As
January approaches, however, they mellow
down softly, and with the nuts and cider of
the long, cold evening are just ~unspeakable.
The Roxbury and Golden Russetts are the
most noted. In the city market these are
on the fruit stands in the summer till ap-
pies come again. At the institute fair
there was a plate of tolerable, though
withered, Golden Russetts that had been
kept over from 1884.
APE
Fruits that will grow in the latitude of
New York state will grow rather generally
throughout the Union, except in the most
southern parts. Therefore, the grapes,
apples, ETC., that thrive best in New York
are worth trying elsewhere.
Among grapes, the finest black ones were
the Wilder and Worden. Some of the
clusters of these were a sight to see. The
Worden is shown in the picture. The old
Concord does not do so badly, either, when
it is richly fortified and tended. The JEFF.
ferson was a light red grape, of a peculiar
and beautiful color. Another beauty was
the Salem, a dark red grape. The Niagara
was the most perfect looking white or green
grape. dish of such black, red and green
grapes as these, heaped artistically to-
gether, would make an exquisite table or.
Dament.
PEARS.
This has been a good year for pears. In
some localities a barrel of good ones could
not be sold for 81. At the same time, how
ever, there were plenty of ragged, hungry
children to whom they would have been a
godsend. They went begging rather be-
cause the dollar was scarce than because
pears were too plenty.
The Japanese beat US all to pieces in pear
culture.

Salicylic acid should not be used for pre-
serving fruit in tin but only in glass cans,
says The Philadelphia Press. We say,
don't use it at all either in tin or glass.
Put the fruit in glass cans; scald them well
and seal them tightly, and it will keep till
doom's day, and when you eat it, it will
not turn your stomach into a drug shop.
Be sure that every chemical that will pre-
serve fruit is not good for the human
stomach, or for that of any ether animal
either, for that matter.

Q PRIZE TOMATOES.
The picture shows thu best looking heap

in the pile, the Acme and the Livingston's
Favorite. Both are as smooth as IN apple.
quite without the crinkles and ridges that
mako the old fashioned tomato a burden.
The Acme seems to be the first f~avorite.
1t has more of a purplish tinge than the
Livingston, and seems perhaps a little
solder.
For some reason the show of corn was
very poor. In respect to ether things, it
was plain to be seen, what everybody has
not yet learned, that the old AMI well
known varieties of both fruits and vegtr
tables will do TO depend on, every time.
The following old varieties are still the

turnips, Early Blood turnip beet and Mann

good old Flat Dutch" cabbages, nearly a
foot and a half through, looking solid as a

New YORK. Feb S-Oa the 21st of Janu-

the Ocean House on Coney Island, and after
drinking glass oil ale and lighting cigar,
fell asleep in his chair. When he awoke
he ask ed for u room and vas evidently dis
appointed when told there were no rooms
for visitors in the winter. He was directed
70 another hotel, aud before g1ing said he
had no money and asked to borrow s. on
his watch and chain. The bartender let
him have the money. The stranger drew
up two papers like this: Loaned 7. P.
Stevens, January 81, S. on silver watch and
gold chain"
He gave one to the barkeeper and kept
one. Yesterday the barkeeper saw in
newspaper portrait OF s. s. Conant, the
missing editor Of Harper's Weekly, and
recognized ii as the man TO whom he had
loaned the money. He communicated with
Mr.. Commits family, and they at once re-
cognized Mr.. Conants writing On the re.
