Father, Mother, and Three SISTERS Dead.

Mr.. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant
at-Arms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., N. j., makes the following startling
statement: any father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungs were so weak raised blood. Nobody
thought l could live. My work (ship-
smithins was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
TO the grave. While in this condition /
commenced using Mishler's Herb Filters,
and it saved my Hfe Because it was SO
difficult to get it in this little place, and |
had improved so much, stopped taking it
for time, and the result is that l have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds me up
as nothing else does, and must have
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please, and if any one wants
to be convinced of its truth, let them write
me and | will make affidavit to it, for
owe my life to Mishler's Herb Bittcrs"
The secret of the almost invariable relief
and cure Of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rh~a, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and Through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
in its composition; prepared by regular
physician; standard medicinal prepaia-
ton; endorsed by physicians and drug
gists. These are four strong points in favor
of Mishler's Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herl,
Bitters is sold by all druggists. Price 90
per large bottle & bottles for $500.

Chestnuts for Rheumatism.


CLestnuts--not Of the storytelling kind,
aor yet of the kind roasted aud sold on
street corners-but horse chestnuts, such as
bishop McNierney is carrying in his
trousers pockets for relief from rheums-
tism. Our Washington dispatches reported
recently that the good bishop Of AL.
bany has besn induced to carry horse chest
nuts by Californian, who told him that
tile superstition is native Of the Pacific
coast The Californian is mistaken. l,
was introi ucei upon the Pacific coast il
1851 by New Highlander. who was prom
inent officer in the, San Francisco custom
house. He both practicsd and preached it
and every year he sent 10 the east, by the
way Of Cape Horn, for package OF horse
chestnuts to distribute among his converts.
1t has prevailed in many parts Of New E lg
land for 100 years certainly, and probably
longer, and there is no seaport between
Portland and Boston where dozens of old
people can not be found with horse chest
nuts in their pockets, to which they attribute
their freedom from rheumatic complaints.
Whence the superstition originally cams
We do not know, but we are sure that New
England is the place from which it has beer
generally diffu,ei throughout the United
States An instance, however, has recently
been brought to our notice in which it wa
both believed and practiced by an intelli
gent immigrant under circumstances which
imply that he learned it first in ireland
According to our observation of the New
England usage the anti-rheumatic virtue il
supposed to depart from horse chestnut

be replaced with fresh ones
