The cid brick that we at first
supposed to be sick and was re-
covering we desire to confess that
m stake was made in diagnosis.
From the first symptoms it had
the appearance of being sick or in
disposed. Now we find on closer
examination that it is only q case
OF old age accompanied by FALLING
SICKNESS. Fortunately it has not
fallen on any one so far, however
the disease has advanced to the
stage that she is likely to fall at
any time. so we warn the people
OF Lawrenceburg not to approach
nearer than twenty feet of this
aged invalid.
1t will be an agreeable surprise to per-
sons subject to attacks of bilious collie
to learn that prompt relief may be had
by taking Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. In many in
stances the attack may be prevented by
taking this remedy as soon as the first
symptoms of the disease appear. 25 and

Pursued by a Demon.

How many suicides, think you, reader, have been committed by per sons driven distraught and hunted to their doom by the demon of chronic i'll health? Countless. For instance, we know, do we not, that hypochon. driasis is monomania--a sort off minor madness produced by chronic dyspep- sia? Again, insomDia, or sleeplessness, often q result of the same cause, cul- inmates in n Arrangement of the req soning faculties. It is, therefore, of momentous consequence to prevent the arrival of disease at its chronic phase, when it daily and nightly scourges the sufferer to dangerously uncertain goal. No medicine known to science, as n means of arresting the maladies to which it is adapted, exists equal to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters Among these complaints are chronic indigestion and insomnia. kidney and rheumatic ailments, constipation and liver trouble. Appetite is improved by the Bitters, the blood fertilized, and bodily substance and yigor increased by it.
