No Roon that Science has Conferred

Has been fraught with greater blessings than
that which has accrued to the inhabitants of
malarial ridden portions of the United States
and the Tropics from the use Of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. The experience of many
years has but too clearly, demonstrated the
inef'cency of quinine and other drugs to ef
fectually combat the progress of intermittent,
congestive and bilious and remittent fevers.
while on the other hand, it has been less
clearly shown that the use of the Btters,
medicine congenal TO the frailest constitution,
and derived from purely botanic sources, af-
fords a reliable safeguard against maiarial
disease, and arrest it when developed. For
disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels,
for general debility and renal inactivity, it is
also most efficient remedy. Appetite and
sleep are imoroved BY it, it expels rheumatic
humors from the blood. and enriches crcu-
lation impoverished by mal-assimiliation.

The engraving from the drawing of the
architect. Mr.. John H. Duncan, of New
York, will give a very good idea Of this
unique structure. 1t will measure thirty
seven by thirty-two feet, with n total
height of fifty-thres feet to the ridge of the
roof. The material used in construction
will be granite gneiss.
In the center of the structure will stand a
~life-size bronze statue of Washington by
0rDonoyan upon a pedestal OF polished red
granite.
The top of the tower will furnish a look
out or belyedere, approach 10 which will be
had by means of two winding staircases in
The corners of the tower. Two hundred or
300 persons at q time will find accommodations
here, and the view which the tower will
command viii be attractive to tourists from
all time to come. The roof will be OF iron
and dark red tile, supported by thirteen
massive columns, typical of the thirteen
original states, and upon these columns it is
intended in time that the bronze coat of
arms of the states shall be placed.
Upon the cast and west ws1ls Of
the tower inches will be provided
for four figures in bronze. to be
put in place later. The present idea is that
statues of Washington's four favorite gem
| erals may occupy these places, or allegorical
ignres may be substituted. On the western
| wall and at the right of the archway, as
seen in the sketch above, a bronzs tablet
will be set il. to bear such commemorative
inscription as shall be agreed upon as ap-
propriate. The interior walls it is designed
| to adorn with such proper medalli ons and
bas rcliefs as nay be supplied from time to
