The Mcgascolides Australis, an
earthworm Of Australia, is of the
size Of an ordinary adder, and at
least six feet long.
tits usually und on the banks
Of small rivers, where one may
come upon it by pulling up a stump
or upturning the earth. II Is not
an easy matter to drag this worm
from the winding galleries which
form its retreat. 1t glides about
the passages with great rapidity,
initiating is extremities at will, and
thus bracing itself against the walls
which il renders Shiny by q secre-
ton from its own body. II slips
easily through the hands, and when
once fastened to the adhesive walls
Of its home, it can only be removed
by breaking its length in two.

Yesterday we printed some
remarks about the relations Of
trade laws to this business.
The point was that our great
popular business created the
best facilities for a trade in ex-
elusive high class novelties, es-
pecially in Dress Goods.
1t is easy to prove this BY a
THOUSAND illustrations. Take
one or two at random in the
fine Black stuffs. Black is just
now a great factor in fashion

First - All silk open-mesh
Grenadine, with plain satin
striped border. at s.. 1t would
be difficult to express more ele-
CANT simplicity in woven stuffs.
There are only two looms in
the land that can make them,
and we control the whole pro-
duct. Each can make about
one dress pattern daily. What
are these among 50 many? The
distribution covers all the land.
Second - All silk twisted
Grenadine-still blacks-from
Lyons, like an Organdie in
silk, broad, solid, plain hem
stitched borders, s. and the
same effects in hemstitched
stripes, $3.50. We think you
may not approach, much less
match them, elsewhere.
All the foregoing are A.
inches, and only 7 to 8 yards
are needed for a pattern. In
types the story is prosaic-the
goods are a mute but eloquent
appeal.
The whirligig Of ingenuity
transforms Flannels. Th e
mention no longer suggests an
undershirt or a charity-box.
Let your eye survey the much
ness Of the new Flannels, and
your fancy roams over the
Roman Campagna, the Vale OF
Cashmere, a tennis court alive
with swell players. Try to de-
scribe them and you want the
dictionary compounded with
the rainbow. The thought is
now Of beautiful morning dress

THE GENUINE DIR. @.
McIANE'S
-CELEBRATED-
LIVER PILLS!
lntemperance a Disease

When the celebrated DIR. Rush declared that
drunkenness was disease, he enunciated u
truth which the experience and observation OF
medical men Is every day confirming. The
many apparently insane excesses Of those who
indulge In the use of sptrituous liquors may
thus be accounted for. The true cause of con-
duct, which Is taken for infatuation, Is very
frequently diseased state OF the Liver. No or
gan In the human system when deranged, pro-
duces a more frightful catalogue of diseases,
And II, instead of applying remedies to the
manifestations of the disease, as is too often
the case physicians would prescribe with view
to the original cause, fewer deaths would result
from diseases Induced by deranged state OF the
Liver. Three-fourths OF the diseases enumer-
ated under the head OF Consumption have their
seat In a diseased Liver. The genuine DR. @.
MsLane's Liver pills, prepared by Fleming
Bros, Pittsburg Pa, are sure cure.
Mr.. Jonathan Houghman, Of West Union,
Park Co., Illinois, writes to the PROPRIETOR
Fleming Brothers, of Pittsburg, Pa, that he had
suffered nom q severe and protracted attack OF
fever and ague, and was completely restored to
healthllby the use OF the genunie DR., C. Mcs
Lanes Liver Pills alone. These Pills unaues.
uonably possess great properties, and can bs
requiring tnvigorating remedies, but the Liver
Pills stand pre-eminent as the means Of restor-
Ing disorganixed liver to healthy action :
hence the great celebrity they have attained,
Insist on having the genuine DIR. q. McLanes 9
