POOR, INDEEDl

The prospect of relief from drastic
carhartics for persons troubled with
constipation is poor indeed. True, they
act upon the bowels, but this they dc
with violence, and their operation
tends to weaken the intesitnes, and Is
prejudicial to the stomach. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is an effectual laxa-
tive, but it neither gripes nor enfee-
bles. Furthermore, 1t promotes diges
tion and regular action of the livel
and kidneys. 1t is an efficient barrier
against, and remedy for malarial com
plants and rheumatism, and is of great
benefit to the weak, nervous and aged
AS a medical stimulant it cannot be
surpassed. Physicians cordially recon-
mend it, and its professional indorse.
ment is fully borne out by popular ex'
perience. Appetite and sleep are both
improved by this invigorant and alter
ative.

IT WILL WORK A REVOLUTION


A gentleman named Hutchinson, hail.
ing from Stafford, Manchester, Eng.
land, has the following advertisement
in the Liverpool Journal of Commerce
Important notice to sailing ship own.
ers-Revolution in the propelling OF
ships-A new invention for the pro-
pulsion of sailing vessels, without sails,
paddles or screws. All machinery goes
aft of the cabin, thus taking up little
or no cargo space. A tnousand-ton
ship, at cost of about sixpence per
hour, will go at a speed of twelve knots
and at eightpence per hour WILL with
no vibration, pass any ship on the
ocean. Will instantaneous steer with.
out rudder. and will not interfere with
the going ahead, turning round in her
own length in dock or at sea. This
invention can easily and cheaply be
applied to iron sailing vessels and
steamers. Electric light produced
from exhaust steam before being con.
densed and fed into the boiler More.
over, this will be a marvellous saver
of life and property. Engines and
Boiler now ready for one and two
thousand-ton shfps.-Agents wanted in
all British and foreign seaports.
