FOUND THE CURE.

It is well known in the meteria medica
that the greatest remedies are compounded
from the juices extracted from natural
herbs The humble child of the forest,
whose untutored mind knew nothing of
our advanced medical science, has never
thelt So been instrumental in teaching the
great doctors f this age the elementary
principles of their profession. Nature and
natures God has always cared for her suf-
fering children, and provided a balm to
heal all the curses that aff1ict mankind.
The knowledge of the means come in a
natural way When the Sierra Chemical
Company of this city first placed on the
market their celebrated Great Sierra
Kidney and Liver Cure, they knew it to
be wonderful discovery which came di-
rectly from the Pi1te Indians. 1t was
submitted TO the test of practical physi-
clans, and reduced to a formula by chem
ical analysis. The good result of the
medicine are shown by the testimonials
that are constantly being received at their
Office, 2424 Mission street, San Francisco,
and are being published daily.
All druggists sell these valuable goods.

HOPE FOR The SICK.
Dine Remedy for One Disease
(From Medical Journal.


1.-THE four greatest medical centres of the world
are London, Paris. Berlin and Vienna These cities
have immense hospitals teeming with suffering hu-
manty. Crowds Of students throng the wards study
ing under the Professors in charge. The most re-
nowned physicians of the world teach a practice
here and the institutions storehouses Of medical
knowledge and experience. With view of making
this experience available to the public the Hospital
Remedy Co. at great expense secured the prescrip-
tons of the hospitals, prepared the specifies, and al
though it would cost from $25 to 500 to secure the
attention Of their distinguished originators yet in
this way these valuable medicines are sold at the
price Of the quack patent medicines that flood the
market and absurdly claim to cure every i'll from
single bottle. The want always felt for a reliable
class of domestic remedies is now filled with perfect
satisfaction. The hospital Remedies make no I'M
reasonable claims. The specific for Catarrh cures
that and nothing else; so with the specific for Bron-
chitis, Consumption and Lung Troubles; Rheuma-
tism is cured by No. 3, while troubles of Digestion
Stomach, Liver and Kidneys have their own cure.
To these is added specific for Fever and Ague one
for female Weakness general tonic AMI blood
maker that makes blood and gives form and fullness
and an Incompatible remedy for Nervous Debility"
These remedies are all sold on absolute guarantee
to Go what is claimed for them.
A circular describing this new method of treating
disease is sent free on application by HOSPITAL REM

1T was thought that there was not
in the United States any memorial OF
Christopher Columbus. One. how
ever, has been found. The Consul
General of France in Baltimore in 1884
erected a column which bears the
name of the discoverer. He placed it
in an obscure place ON his grounds
and when streets were laid out it there
remained, hidden from sight by trees
and shrubs. 1t was almost forgotten
until recently. when it was brought to
light. Time has dealt harshly with
the monument. but it can be restored.

WILD YOUNG BRITONS.
A Manitoba Refuge For the Fast Sons
Nobility.

A Manitoba Refuge For the Fast Sons of
Nobility.
There is one of the strangest farms
in the world up here in Manitoba It's
principal crop is an annual growth of
young Englishmen, sons of wealthy
parents, who have interrupted the boys
in their diligent work of sowing a
thick and early crop of wild oats, and
have sent them out to the colony to
have their moral and physical health
built up and little industry and USE
full knowledge instilled into them at
the same time. The owners of the
farm, two brothers, charge the boys
for their board and instruct them in
farming for nothing, but the work
they manage to get out of the young
fellows is worth good deal more
than the time spent in teaching them,
though occasionally horse is foun-
dered or piece of farm machinery
broken.
1t is remarkable, though, how these
young sprigs of nobility, many of
them, take to the hard work of the
farm. They have true British grit
about them, and the managers have
sense enough to have the drudgery
and dirty work done by hired men.
The boys ride the horse rakes, drive
the moving machines, learn to run a
thresher. pillow, ETC.. and all of them
take kindly to the care of livestock,
the horses especially, though pro-
pensity to race the latter at every op-
portunity has to be guarded against.
The instincts of gentlemen" do not
seem to desert them either, for they
will never sit down to eat in the
clothes they have worked in and they
refuse to eat with the farm hands who
bring the smell of stables to the table.
Bathing. shaving and dressing for the
evening take up good deal of their
time-indeed waste it" real farmers
would say-but the boys insist on it.
They also cling to their cigarettes.
Many of them get to like the life, so
that they stay longer than their pa
rents insist on, but nearly all return
gladly when the term of their Danish
ment is over The farm owners make
good thing out of it.-Winnipeg Let

"A citizen of Irwinton, Ca, had
q dream that some one had entered
his kitchen to rob the house. He rose
from his slumber, as he imagined,
took his gun from the rack. and, on
going to the back door, fired at the
robber, who was making his escape
from the kitchen over the banister,
leaving blood on the floor and banis-
ter. After this he returned to his bed
OF repose. and on rising next morning,
thinking of his dream. he went to the
spot where he imagined the man made
his escape the night before. and, to
his surprise. lot of blood was found
On the floor and banister at the same
place where he had dreamed of doing
the shooting.

Is the apartment to which tho unhappy sufferer
from 1nfammatOry rheumatism is confined. If,
ere the crisis of pain is reached, that fine pre-
ventative, HOstetter's Stomach Bitters, is used
by persons of a rheumatic tendency, much un-
necessary suffering is avoided. Nervines, anO-
dynes and sedatives, while having none but a
specific effect, are yet very desirable at times.
Yet they can produce no lasting eff ct upon
rheumatism, because they have no power to
eliminate from the blood to rheumatic virus.
HOtetter's Stomach Bitters does this, and checks
at the outset disease which, If allowed to gain
eadway, it is next to impossible to dislOdge or
to do more than relieve. Rheumatism, it should
be remembered, Is disease with a fatal ten
dency from its prOneness to attack the heart. A
resort to the Bitters should therefore, be prompt

Catarrh

Is a complaint which affects nearly everybody,
more or less: 1t originates in a cold, or success
sion of colds, combined with impure blood.
Disagreeable flow from the nose, tickling in the
throat, offensive breath, pain over and between
the eyes, ringing and bursting noise in the ears,
are the more common symptoms Catarrh Is
cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla, which strikes
directly at its cause by removing all Impurities
from the blood, building up the diseased tissues
and giving healthy tone to the whole system.
'For several years have been troubled with
that terribly disagreeable disease, catarrh.
