Dear Doctor: 1t is with great pleasure
that I pen you these few lines to let you
know that 1 am well of my described
stomach trouble. do not believe it will
return, but if it should will write to you
again for some more of your most excel
lent medicine. Dear sir, you surely are
saint on earth among US poor unfortuna tes
who have been duped and doped SO long
by a lot of quack doctors. 1 do not mean
myself, as 1 have no confidence in them,
but 1 have seen so many on the Sound
who have never known any relief. So
many have been robbed and then turned
away not only with loss of health but
money. But how quickly their eyes were
opened when they took your medicines
and saw the miracles which they accom-
plished. Wishing you happy and pros
porous life, remain yours truly,

MYTH appetites sharp as the swords
wv Of Spain,
And pie-crust as long as the coast
of Maine,
No wonder you're seized with an inward
pain,
And made cross and Grabbed
But when you do shorten the pastry with
lard,
You render digestion remarkably hard:
We beg of the cooks of the land to discard
This dangerous habit
1t ruins digestion. The experts insist it
Should never be used in pe-crust or
biscuit,
And never in cooking at all should you
rlsh it.
But people must,
1t sell ms,
Have crust
To make pie;
And thin. it hard to Danish lard
With which to fry
Now "CorrnENh" is pure and clean,
And will supply
The place Of lard in this regard.
Suppose you Try
Croquettes, and see
How delicate and crisp they'll be-
Physicians, chemists, COOKS. all say,
By using "CoTroINNE you may
Prepare Your food in such way,
That childrtn and dys}}eItios too
Can eat what other people DO.

Timber for China.

The bark Coloma has nearly completed

on stores and passengers. She will sail
some time next week for China Captain
Noyes says he has 100 spars on board, and
they are straight as a candle and tirst-class
sticks. They were cut not far from Van
couver. He has also 525, 600 feet of 16xlG
inch fir, some of it for the Hong Kong and
Whampoa Dock Company The lumber
trade being dull at present, he has been
enabled to get the best there was on the
market. Every stick of it has been CON
tracted for. The Coloma will take quite
number of Chinese passengers, and sew
eral in the cabin. Captain Noyes has an
order for several thousand feet of granite
crosswalks for parties here, which will
form part of his return cargo
Mr.. Edward Noyes, a nephew of Captain
Cyrus M. Noyes, is going to China on the
Coloma. He has been suffering for some
time with an affection of the optic nerve,
which threatens the loss of his sight, and
has consulted the best oculists in the
country, but they give but little hope of
any improvement in his condition and
prescribe complete rest as the only hope
for the prevention of his trouble becom-
