A Portland man, who has just re.

ests of Northern Maine, vouches to the
Portland, Me-, Argus for the entire
truth of the following story, as he had
it direct from the sheriff.
A man who lives in Mount Katahdin
reign went into the Office of justice of
the peace few days since, and in
quired about the penalty for hunting
deer with dogs, and very particularly
as to whether one-half the fine did not
go to the informer.
The justice consulted the game laws,
and assured him that it did.

The justice could not back out, and

A Remarkable Family.

On q pretty little farm high up
among the hills of Calhoun County,
Alabama, 1000 feet above the sea, lives
a most remarkable family. Their
name is SadIer. The family consists
of brother and four sisters, and the
youngest has already turned her
ninety-frst year. The oldest is several
years more than century old. None
of them has ever married. The Sadlers
were born in the Old Dominion State.
In 1881 the family moved to Alabama
and Calhoun County, about fifteen
miles east of Annison. Two years
later they became possessed of the
property on which they now live, and
there erected log house, which domi-
cile they have since inhabited con-
stantly. Years ago the father and
mother died, the former at the age oi
ninety-one. the latter at the age OF
seventy-tive. Chattanooga (Tenn.

by DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
even after the disease has progressed SO
far as to induce repeated bleedings from
the lungs, severe lingering cough with
copious expectoration (including tubercu-
lar matter), great loss of flesh and extreme
enaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever i'll mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
fatal malady, all other medicines with
liver oil and its filthy emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried III nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
n short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried i'll vain.
The photographs of large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been

pages which will be mailed to YOU on re-
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.

effected her heart, then hor heal. Her feet
became so swollen she could wear nothing
on them; her hands were drawn all out OF

than half the time, her knee joints terribly
swollen and for eighteen months she had to
be hold up to ba dressed. One limb became
entirely helpless, aud the skin was 80 dry

these eight years she had been treated by

time ut Ann Arbor under best medical advice.
