satisfactory results, as it never

such as fullness of the head, head

all the good medicinal qualities of
qIinine and is free from its many
evil tendencies. AS tonic, anti
periodic and antipyretic, it is unex-
celled by any drug known to medi-
cal science. In cases OF malaria,
colds, idhuenza, inordiaate temporal

Of the Lord.
Hardly were the words out OF his
mouth when a crowd of men and boys
left the meeting and made descent
upon the party in the lawn. They
were imbued with sort of religious
fanaticism, aad did not stop to con-
slider the fact that they were invading
private grounds, but first stopped the
music, then tore down the decorations
and wound up by stoning the members
OF the party.
1t afterward transpired that the en-
tertainment was given in honor of
little miss, who had the day before
been confirmed in the jewish faith.
All Of the attendants were children
and they were engaged in innocent
play. Several OF the little ones were
struck by the stones thrown by Sam

hurt.
