Furniture Lumber.

Furniture makers are to-day using
lumber which was called worthless ten
years ago. Whitswood or poplar is
used in immense quantities, notwith-
standing its warping qualities. The
growing scarcity of our natural supply
Of lumber leads manufacturers to expert
ment with so-called worthless" yarie-
ties. Cypress is working into favor for

be surprised if some enterprising manu-
facturer should come out with most de-
sirable piece of furniture, possessing a
delicate, and 1Inely-marked grain, and
yet consisting of nothing but unpreten-
tious cypress. Hard pine makes nice
looking job when finished in good shape,
but has the serious objection of being
full of pitch. Cypress has much the
same appearance as hard pine, but the
pitch is happily absent. The wood COM

cessfully utilized 1t is being worked
into great many forms, despite its we'll
known warping qualities which are rep
resented as being so great that the lum-
Der will not stay in the same county two
successive nights" We are informed
that picture. frames have been success
fully made of gum wood, and rumor adds
that the very qualities that have hith-
erto condemned it have been utilized in

The Two Oysters.

Two Oysters, one Of which was sick
and the other well, were one day taking
a walk, when the healthy Oyster said
''You are a miserable creature. You
are so infrm that you can't enjoy your
self, and if an enemy were to get after
you, you would be too weak TO make
your escape. Now look at me; why
don't you brace up and look like this2
feel like an athlete and have digestion
like an ostrich"
Just then two men came along, and
each one swallowed an Oyster But the
sick Oyster made supreme effort,
climbed out of the stomach into which it
had been forced, and made its escape
while the healthy Oyster died an igno-
minious death in a tank of gastric juice.

We have so often seen fatal results follow
the declaration that it can be cured, that we
have unconsciously settled down in the belief
that this disease must necessarily prove fatal
1t is true that occasionally community has
witnessed an isolated case of what may ap-
propriately be termed spontaneous recovery,
but to what combination of favorable circum-
stances this result was due none have hitherto
been found able to determine
We have now the gratifying fact to announce
that the process by which nature affects this
wonderful change is no longer mystery to
the medical profession, and that the changes
brought about in the system under favorable
circumstances by intrinsic causes may be
made as. certainly and more eXpeditiously by
the use of the proper remedy. In other words,
nature is initiated and assisted.
Tuberculous matter is nothing more or less
than nourishment imperfectly organized.
Now, if we can procure the organization of
this food material so that through the process
of felectve affinity it may take its place in the
system, we can cure the disease. This is just
what Piso's Cure for Consumption does. 1t ar
rests at once the progress of the disease by
preventing the further supply Of tubercu!ous
matter, for while the system is under its infu-
ence all nourishment is organized and assimi-
lated. 1t thus controls cough, eNpectoration,
nght-sweats, hectic fever, and all other char
acteristic symptoms of Consumption.
Many physicians are now using this medi-
cine and all write that it comes fully up TO its
recommendations and makes Consumption one
of the diseases they can readily cure.
The forming stage of a disease is always the
most ausp:cious for treatment. This TACT
should induce persons To resort to the use of
Plso's Cure when the cough is first noticed,
whether it has a consumptive diathesis for its
cause or not, for this remedy cures all kinds of
coughs with unequaled facility and prompt
ness. In coughs from simple cold, two or
three doses of the medicine have been found
sufficient to removethe trouble. SO in all dis
eases of the throat and lungs, with symptoms
Stimulating those of Consumption, Piso's Cure
is the only infailible remedy.
The following letter recommending Piso's
Cure for Consumption, is far sample of the
