A Healthy Body and a Clear Head.
If indigestion, constipation and bilious
ness torment the body, the head cannot
be clear. These disorders react upon the
brain most hurtfully, and produce a cloud
mess in the organ OF thought not expert
enced in a healthy man. Happily these
brain depressing maladies may be entirely
dispelled by that peerless alternative Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which cheers,
retreshes and invigorates the organs and
nerves, while it regulates the organs OF
digestion. assimilation and bilious score
ton. 1t expels the morbid humors which
poison the system through the bowels and
urinary passages, and exerts a powerful
invigorating influence as we'll. Its cathar'
tic action is never irritating, violent or
painful, but even, natural and progressive.
As an appetizer and sleep promoter the
Bitters is un%rivalled; it ~mitigates the in
6rmities OF age, relieves the ailments PEE
culiar to the gentler sex, arrests prema-
ture decay, and builds up an enieebled
physique.

Tho world. Production of Sugar.

The statistics of the worlds production
of sugar show that there is a steady and
large annual increase. The amount OF
cane sugar produced in the season of
1856 was 2, 905, 900 tons, an increase Of
1888, 900 tons over that of 1SS4-5. and l.
078, 583 tons over hat of 1856. Cuba
led the list with 900. 900 tons this season,
which was a falling off of 1000 tons
from the year before and 81. 05S ton less
than in 1855. There was also a de-
crease in the product Of Java, the next
greatest source of supply, of so. 900 tons
from the yield of 18s4-5. But in the pro-
duction of almost all other cane-grow-
ing countries there has been. as shown
by the totals, a marked advance. The
yield of beet-root sugar e, OLA. 900 tons
this SEASON. has fallen off sol. 900 tons
from the last annual report, but COM
parison with the statistics of 1855
shows a growth of ZOE, $50 tons in ten
years.
These reports do not recognize glucose
and grape sugar, or sorghum sugar or
maple sugar, and are evidently made up
from the basis Of commercial statistics
concerning the sugar hat has entered
the market. Beyond this there are vast
quantities Of cane sugar produced for
domestic use in all tropical countries
and consumed by the producers and
their immediate neighbors, which do
not enter into the computation. The
most notable increase in any country is
in the beet-root sugar yield of Russia,
which has grown from 222. 900 o in
the season of 1856 and 1856. 900 tons in
1SS4-5 up to 525. 900 tons in 1855.

George Wells was at Morse's Big
Springs ranch and witnessed the work Of
draining Morse's carp pond. BE tells us
that the pond literally swarmed with
young carp. varying in length from one
to three inches. A great many patent
pailfuls of the young fish were taken out
and transferred to a new place prepared
for them. or the thirteen carp origin
ally introduced in the pond three years
ago. eleven were found in good condi-
ton and averaging something over four
pounds in weight each. When these fish
were introduced they were the same size
Of the young fry now in the pond. Mr..
Wells purchased 100 Of the young fish,
paying for them 25 cents each. He
offered Morse $25 for one of the old fish,
but Morse refused the offer. The in
crease has been wonderful, and when it
is taken into consideration that these fish
grow to weigh from forty to sixty
pounds it may be understood that there
will be no lack OF good, fresh fish in the
Black hills in a few years. Black Hills

Difference Between sunstroke and Inc
briefly.

Sunstroke is a very badly chosen term,
seeing that a large number of persons
who are thus overcome by the heat are
in the shade, or under cover at the time.
Bakers in illventilated rooms orten ex-
hibit precisely similar symptoms; only
this week l had a sunstroke patient
brought in at midnight from a cellar.
The fact is, il a man gets overheated
beyond a certain point he either per-
spires very freely or gives way. There
is a peculiar smell about a sunstroke man
that seldom deceives, but sometimes it
is difficult to be certain whether he was
more than drunk. When l was in the city
hospital 1 had, during the summer of
1878, thirty or forty cases every day, and
the n~ever-failing test was to dip the pa
tient into an ice-cold bath. II he was
s~unstruck, he would show signs Of relief,
and be quiet, but if he was drunk, he
would sober up in an instant, and quote
Scripture and recite poetry with an en-
phasis which was astounding.-D Priest
in Globe Democrat.

In the beginning OF June the Vienna
press announced a second edition Of the
Biamese.twins, in the conjunct persons
of John and Jacob Tocci. The boys
were bom . few miles from Turin, in
the duchy OF Savoy, and for years the
parents managed to keep the secret OF
their existence. but were finally per-
suaded to exhibit them 3 q committee
Of physicians, with the usual result, an
enterpresario and q European round
trip. The conjunction begins some eight
inches below the shoulder and becomes
complete in the region of the hips. The
digestive functions are effected by one
set Of organs. The arrangement Of the
diaphragm Is doubtful, but each boy has
. heart Of his own, a separate pair Of
lungs and arms, and a separate head.
The strange agglomeration is supported
BY two feeble legs, rather inadequate to
the purpose Of locomotion.
Considered - unit, the marvel Is q
quadrumanous entity, for the boys can
drag themselves along the floor by a CO.
operative effort of their four hands, trail
ing their legs as a walrus would its
double tail. On the biped plan of pro-
erosion they can only totter along. The
left leg belongs to Juan. the right one to
Jacopo, and the anatomical arrange
ments Of the hip joint and its system Of
nerves seems apuzzle, for. while the
heads OF the boys face in opposite direc-
tons, the toes of their one pair of feet
point both the same way, Jacopo thus
being Obliged to walk backward unless
his brother should consent to walk heels
foremost. 1t might thus almost seem
that both Juan and Jacopo walk on
Juan's legs, but only Jacopo feels the
%pinching Of the right-side shoe or q fall
on the right-side knee. All the nerves
on that side Of the lower extremities lead
to his head, those ON the other side to his
brothers. The little fellows that quite

NJ. COLLATION., in a paper to the Acade-
mic des Sciences, suggests that the cleo
tricity 80 wildly illustrated by the thun.
derstorms is generated principally by
friction OF air and water vapor. During
a thunderstorm the raindrops formed in
the storm cloud descend vertically to
the earth, causing a partial vacuum,
which is replaced by air drawn in later

caused by this movement is the principal

A paradoxical observation is that
while menthol, a remedy for neuralgia,
imparts a sensation of GOODNESS, the parts
rubbed with it are really hotter than the
surrounding skin. This confirms the

distinct sets OF nerves. the menthrol

Martha Washington's Curtain Lecture.
Most Of the presidents have made good
husbands, and history tells Of none Of
them who have had serious trouble with
their wives. We read, it is true, that
Martha Washington was overheard by
certain visitors who slept at Mount Yer
non, giving the general curtain lectures
in such animated tones that her voice
penetrated through the thin partitions
which separated the rooms; but the
traveller adds that Gen. Washington lis
tened in silence, and, when the lecture
was finished, merely said, Now good
sleep to you, my dear" After this moth
ing more was heard.
Washington wrote many and long let
tiers to his wife which were full OF affec-
much of these that she destroyed them
before she died. Only one escaped-the
one in which he announced his appoint
ment as commander-in-chief OF the
colonial army. He begins the letter

statement that he is with unfeigned re-
gard" her very affectionate George

A Great Victory
A Terrible Case Of Scrofula
iiA he7sa Cured by
Hoods S~arsapariIIa

In the winter Of 1879 / was attacked with
Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms.
At one time I had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and around my neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass Of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t Is impossible
to fully describe my sufferlngs, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years Of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, 1 was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation of W. j..
Huntley. druggist, of Lockport, I was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla- And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly scars. which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less I do not know what 1t may
have done for others, but ! do know that in
my case, Hoods Sarsararilla has proved an

Gently witnessed the exploits of a rustic
athlete who could make his fortune in
my North American circus. He snapped
a n inch tow by passing one loop over his
neck and shoulders and the other around
his Bonded knee and then Strengthening

head into a clump Of wrinkles. With an
end Of the same tow he then got a hitch
around a sixty-pund chunk Of limestone,
and. after giving it a few pendulum
swings, whirled it around his head like
a slungshot. A boy attendant then
handed him a stone jug of the heaviest
caliber, which he wrapped up in a shawl
and chucked between his crossed arms
and his chest. will you pay for it IL /
