ClRemember that with feeble infants who do not
thrive on their mothers milk or the best prepared
foods in the market, WE REQUEST NO CHANGE
OF FOOD, but add or more drops four times
daily of Murdocks Liquid Food, and you will find
that their lost or needed Vtallty VIII DC restored
to them in less than thirty days.
Not case of Cholera lntantum known where
Murdock's Liquid Food has been used, nor death
from Cholera Infantum where it has been pre-
scribed by physician.
The question often asked-how does Murdocks
LIQUID Food compare with other Foods and Ton
les? We refer to the State Inspector of Foods for
Massachusetts in his annual report for 1886.
Murdock's Liquid Food contains 14.10 per cent.
Of albrmen; all the other foods do not contain
any, Common food does not contain over one per
cent. that is available.
III contains less organic matter than common
food and common food contains 1886; the other
nreparations from % so to $3.50 per cent.
II contains o. AZ of ASH which is indigestibe
matter. The others contain from $50 to 23.74
per cent
In alcoholic extracts 1.05. The other prep
a.ations are all TONES, as they contain from
2p13 to So 3 per cent.
THESE facts show why Murdock's Liquid Food
excels all other foods and preparations in making
new blood and cleansing the system of disease.
A tablespoonful four times day will make 10
rounds new blood monthly, and the system con-
tains "a to 20 pounds.

The little peach-blow or crushed-straW-
berry vase which sold for $4,000 at the
Morgan sale last Monday is still the subject
of remark in artistic circles. 1t was the
chief feature of the lady's collection Of ORR
entail art objects. The vase is eight inches
high and three inches in diameter. 1t is
ovoid in shape, with short, slender neck,
spreading slightly at the top. The peculiar
peach-bloom color of the vase is what gives
it its value. 1t is of the Kang-he period
1861 to 1872. In the summer of 1883 Mr..
Robertson, of the American Art Association,
while travelling in the East, arrived at
Pekin. Hearing of this valuable vase as
being in the possession of I-Wang-Ye, a
Chinese mandarin, he at once commenced
negotiations with him for its purchase.
Many months elapsed before he succeeded
in procuring it, and many more ere he had it
safely in New York. Mrs. Mary Jane Nor
gan wanted it, and got it for $4,000. AT the
sale last Monday the dainty relic of the
Yang-he period was tenderly shown to the
art worshippers. Auctioneer Thomas j.
Kirby knew that it would bring big price,
and passed quickly from the first bid of
$1,000 until the remarkable figure OF $4,000
was reached, whenit was knocked down to
Mr.. W. T. Walters of Baltimore, through the
agency of Mr.. J. F. Sutton. of the American
Art Association.

The officers of the Oregon place the entire
blame for the collision upon the schooner.
The steamship, it is alleged, was manned
with full force of lookouts, and was carry
ing the regulation lights. There were fully
30 members of the crew of the Oregon on
her deck at the time of the collision, and the
officer who was then in charge says that had
the unknown schooner displayed the regula-
ton colored lights she would have been seen
and the collision avoided. There were
rumors in circulation in New York yesterday
which found many believers that the Oregon
was not run down by schooner, but was
sunk in some other way. The testimony,
however, of the officers of the ship and such
of the passengers as were on deck seems to be
conclusive on this point.

The death of DR.. Austin Flint, ST., at
New York Saturday is a great loss to the
medical profession. Dr. Flint was one OF
the ablest writers ON medical subjects, and
his fame was not confined to this country
The Flint family seems to have been es-
pecially ordained to the pursuit Of the heal
ing art. The deceased physicians father
grandfather and great-grandfather were dis
tinguished physicians, and his son, DR.. Aus
TIN Flint, Jr., has already acquired wide
reputation. DR.. Flint began his career in
Massachusetts, but removed to Buffalo,
where for 10 years he edited the Buffalo
Medical Journal and aided in organizing the
Buffalo medical college. He was afterwards
connected for several years with the uniyer-
sity of Louisville and the charity hospital in
New Orleans. In 1861 he joined the staff of
Bellevue hospital in New York city, and re-
NAMED on it until his death. He was pro-
fessor in the Long Island medical college,
and in 1872 was elected President of the
New York academy Of sciences. AS prac-
titioner he had no superior. He was author
of many works which are regarded as au-
thority by his profession, and the sales of
which have been large. DR.. Flint was to
have presided over the international medical
congress, which meets next year. Although
IA years old, he was still as hard worker as
most men of half his age.

committee of the national House of Repre-

terposed in the auditing of the accounts are
regarded as unreasonable. The expenses
of the court are to be paid out Of the Geneva

the money awarded them with the expenses
deducted, than wait longer for official wrang-
ling over details.

Death from Morphine.

Mrs. Curtis 0. Hoyt, of Danbury, has for five years suffered from an intensely painful disease, and on Thursday evening took g large dose of morphine. After the effects had passed she told her mother that she had better put the bottle out of reach as she sui fered so much as hardly to know what she was doing. The bottle was put on a shelf, but on Friday it was found empty and Mrs. Hoyt died in the afternoon in spite of all that could be done to restore her.
