The Greatest Medical Discovery
of the Age.
kEENEDY'S
MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
DONALD KENNEDY, OF RoxBURY, MASS.

HAS discovered in one of our common
pasture weeds remedy that cures every
kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula
down to common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
'(both thunder humor). He has now in his
; possession over two hundred certificates
of its value, all within twenty miles of
Boston.
A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and perfect cure is war
ranted when the right quantity is taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver or
Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being
stopped, and always disappears in week
after taking it.
If the stomach is foul or bilious it will
cause squeamish feelings at first.
No change of diet ever necessary. Eat
the best you can get, and enough of it.
Dose, one tablespoonful in water at bed
time. and read the Label.

Very few persons have ever engaged
In such hunt for rabbits as party Of
young men living near Homer partici-
pated in one day recently.
In the absence of all large game and
the prohibition ~ to shooting chickens
and quails. the young farmers pass away
the monotony of the wintry days by or
ganizing hunting parties, which enter
into competition as to which party will
bring in the most game by given time.
Usually these competition hunts are be-
tween the young men of different neigh
borhoods. and neighborhood honor" is
big thing in this country.
Avery exciting hunt was made by two
parties Of farmers living near Homer,
which. on account Of tho number Of men
engaged and the amount of game bagged,
will be household lore in the neighbor-
hood for many winters. There was one
company Of twenty-five men and another
OF twenty-four men. All had to have
their game in by o'clock in the even
ing, and most of the men started in quest
Of "Brer Rabbit" before daylight. "And
they gathered them in from the high
ways and hedges" for when the count
was made in the evening one party had
secured 633 rabbits while the other had
slain 525 making total Of 1883.
A sumptuous supper was spread that
night, tor which the defeated party had
to pay. Then the rabbits were sold and
the money divided into three purses.

Homely Gymnastics.

That there is not much sanitary or

busting is evident, and yet many women,
disdaining heavier work, reserve this do
nestle duty for themselves and waste
much time upon it. Muscular motion is
Of little value unless vigorous and swift.
The slow walk and lettering movement do
not rouse the blood from it's torpidity.
The lowliest labor when zealously per-
formed may be followed by an unexpected
hygienic effect. There is the instance of a
penniless young man, threatened with fe-
yer in II strange country, shipping as a

people. During the voyage he scrubbed
away the dirt from the shipboards and
with it the disease that had invaded his

MoUR. the profession of
his father. rose to the same rank and OBJ
tanned the distinction of G. G. B. The
present admiral is therefore the third Of
the family to achieve commanding rank in
the navy. He succeeded his father in the
baronetcy in 1880.
The fate Of the Victoria has recalled q
list of not less than seven similar disasters
since the beginning of the eighteenth Gen.
fury in which admirals of the English navy
persisted with their vessels. The first of
these disasters occurred in 170S, when Ad-
miral Beaumont went down In the Mary
during gale in the Downs that destroyed
IS men-of-war and drowned ], 500 seamen.
Four years later Admiral Sir Claudesley
Shovel, who had narrowly escaped from
the storm in the Downs, went down with
his ship, the Association, during gale of
the coast Of Wales. His body was washed
ashore and buried in Westminster abbey.
Thirty-seven years afterward Admiral Sir
John Balchen, in the flagship Victory, was
wrecked and lost near the coast of Alder
ney. That at least is the supposition, for
the truth was never positively learned.
Some years later the victory's rudder was
washed up ON the beach near Brighton.
The historic disaster to the Royal George
in 1852 was, like the sinking of the Victoria.
due to a blunder worse than crime. An at
tempt was made to heel her over and exam
inc her bottom. For this purpose the heavy
guns were all removed to one side of the
deck. The precaution Of stopping her lower
deck scuppers was neglected, and the water
came in and sank the vessel. There were
nearly 900 persons drowned, including Ad-
miral Kempenfelt and over 200 women.
In 1907 Admiral Sir Thomas Troubridge,
whom Nelson had dubbed 1.-THE Bayard of
the navy" went down in his flagship, the
Blenheim, while on the way to the Cape Of
Good Hope Rear Admiral Carthew Rey-
nolds persisted with the St. George on the
coast of Jutland in 1911, the last disaster of
the kind in which an admiral persisted un-
til Tryon went down on the Victoria.
