Mothers.

There are upon the skin Of every hu-
man being, child and adult alike,
100000 pores. Through these pores
in the form of insensible perspiration,
is expelled more than zone-quarter of
the neurishment taken:intoithe system.
The Importance of keeping open these
perspiration valves upon child's bo-
dy, is second only to that of promptly
disgusting the food eaten. 1t was to
open the pores of the skin and to assim-
ilate the food that DR.. cherfornulat-
ed Castoria. Loose bowels, constipa-
ton, fevers and eruptions which are so
constant among infants and children,
and which kill one-third of all children
before they are five years old, arise
principally from these two causes. It
is from the wonderful results attendant
upon the use of Castoria in regulating
the stomachs and bowels and keeping
open the pores of the skin, that Cas-
toria aquired its world wide reputation.
With plenty of water for the body,
pure air for the lungs and Castoria to
assimilate the food, there need be no
unaccounted for sickness among chill
dren. Castoria is vegetable prescrip-
ion without morphine or other norco-
tic property. Thirty years extensive
use has given it history never attained
by another medicine.

JOHN LIND, another thrifty receiver

$2,622.38.
We don't understand the dispatch to
intimate, much less charge, Mr.. LIND
with being defaulter, but rather that
his, among hundreds of others &C.
counts remain unbalanced upon the
books OF the treasury department,
through carelessness, error or other
cause. The GLOBE dose not desire ia
injure JOHN LIND or any one else, and
printed purely as matter of news the
dispatch as it came. It does, not be.
lieve that JOHN LIND is ..defaulter''
to the government. first, because it has
no reason to believe JOHN LIND is a dis.
honest man, and, second because the
government is not in the habit allowing
defaulters to run loose without bringing
them to an account If JOHN LIMBS
