Mrs. Rhode Noah. of this place, was
taken in the night with cramping pains
and the next day diarrhoea set in.
She took half a bottle of blackberry
cordial but got no relief. She then
sent to me to see if had anything that
would help her. l sent her bottle Of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy and the first dose reliev-
ed her. Another of our neighbors had
been sick for about week and had
tried different remedies for diarrhoea
but kept getting worse. 1 sent him
the same remedy. Only four doses OF
it were required to cure him. He says
he owes his recovery to this wonderful

CRABS FoRErELL EARTHQUAKES

CRABS FoRETELL EARrHoUAKES.-
For some time previous to the day upon
which the great earthquake of August,
1857, occurred, great swans of crabs OF
an unknown variety were seen in the
Bay of Payta, Chill. They all appear
ed to be greatly excited, and were lite
rally climbing over each other in their
efforts to escape the impending calami-
ty. How they knew that the earth
quake was collecting it's strength to
desolate the coast is more than man
can say; but that they knew something
unusual was about to happen there is
no doubt whatever. That there were
millions of them may be inferred from
the report of DR.. Forbes, who says that
''ten davs after the earthquake the
dead crabs were thrown upon the beach
in wall-like line three to four feet
wide along the whole extent of the
bay"
