One Lived. the Other Died

A woman formerly our slave is now Our
cook. About eighteen months ago she be
came sickl and had cough and was con-
fined TO bed, and it was thought that she
had consumption. The treatment by ply
sicians failed TO give relief. In December
1854. a node or knot the size of goose egg
formed just above the pit of the stomach.
which when lanced discharged matter for 5
or 9 months. One of these also formed
under her arm, and three on her back.
which discharged matter for a considerable
time. For six months of this time she was
confined TO the house, and most of the time
in bed. The stomach often refused food.
by rejecting what she had eaten. She used
great deal of medicine, but failed to be
cured. bought one bottle of your b. b.
B. made in Atlanta, Ga. and gave it to
her and she commenced to improve. | then
bought and gave her three bottles more, and
she continued 10 improve and in two
months time her cough had ceased, her
consti' utiOn strengthened, appetite and
digestion good, all discharges ceased, nodes
or knots disappeared and she went to work
apparently healthy and fattened up greatly
This woman had a married sister of near
same age who was affected in precisely the
same way and about the same time. She
had node or knot on pit of stomach. back,
etc. She did not take any B. b. B. and the
node on her stomach ate through TO the
cavity. She continued on the decline and
wasted away, and finally died.
These were two terrible cases of blood
poison, used b. b. b. and was speed
lily cured-the other did not use it and died.
1t is most assuredly the most wonderful
blood purifier. refer to merchants of

Beecher's Opinion of the English.

Americans Their dress is diStinctively
English. you know noticeable there as il

man when you see him, but was particu-
lsrly interested in noticing that up 10 the
years Of II and l6 the children are stur-

charming health Of the English children
is one of the most delightful features of
English life; but we have nothing here.

a large under class of people in London.

they become by want OF nOurishlng food a
feeble race in everything except their pas
siors. The wife of an English clergyman
muCh interested in missionary effort said
TO me concerning their endeavors and
work among this class: The highest we
can even attempt with them is to induce
them not 10 steal and TO keep clean. That
is our highest attainable aim. Now we
have nothing like that here. Henry

IIQUIDPEARL
The I,land of GrinSey.

On the map of Iceland may be seen a
speck of an island called Grimsey. 1t is
the most northern, and consequently the
coolest, of the Iceland gronp. Eighty
eight people--or n-,rc-live on it. They
have tried TO keep few cows, but the
winters are too hard for them. Two horses
and few sheep with very coarse fieeces
are the only animals of the kind on the
island. 4 good minister, Peter Goodman
son. lives in this remote place. He is a
poet and an astronomer, and is EN-
ployed to take observations for the MCte-
geological institute at Copenhagen. Once
or twice year SOME of the islanders visit
the mainland, but the stormy seas, GOV
cred with iCebergs, make the passage al
ways dangerous.
On one side of the island, which is a
high preCipice, countless birds build their
nests, and the collection of eggs is one
chief means Of living for the little settle
ment Men are let down over the face of
the rock by ropes They wear suits
thickly wadded with feathers to save
themselves from being hurt on the sharp
rocks. Each man carries pole to help
himself with and ladle for sCOOping up
nests that he cannot reach with his hands
There is in his frock great pocket in
which he can put $50 eggs. There he
works with the sea roaring beneath him.
Many accidents occur and many lives are
lost in this business.

All signs that can be discovered indicate
that the building season Of 1857 in Springfield
will be one of the busiest and most sxten-
siye in its operations ever known in this
city. The season may really be said TO have
already commenced, or, perhaps il would be
better TO say that the operations of 1886
have never, for more than a day or two at
time, been suspended. With ordinary
weather work will be pushed on various
factory buildings and business blocks all
through the winter but several new enter
prises are on the books for next spring and
there will be a very extensive demand for
brick. Architect Cregar has orders from
Oliver S. Kelly TO complete The elevations
and specifications Cor fourth story on the
Arcade block and have them ready for use
by the time the spring is fairly open.
Necessarily, there will be a boom in the
