Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen-
orally needed, when the languid ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the liver
is torpid and sluggish and the. need Of
a tonic and Alternative is felt. A prompt
use of this medicine has often averted
long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers.
No medicine will act more surely in
counteracting and freeing the system
from the malarial poison. Headache,
Indigestion Constipation, Dizziness
yield to Electric Bitters. 9Oc and 81 per
bottle at r. r. Bellamy's drug store.

According to an act of the House OF
Lords some six years ago, a man has
right to bring his old family pew into
the newly built church Of his parish,
that he may sit in the seat of his
fathers. In consequence of this law
handsome English church finds itself
in great distress. The graceful build
ing has recently been restored in the
most approved style at the cost of
about $4,000, and one of the mem
bers of the congregation has insisted
in thrusting his unsightly family pew
in the midst of all this beauty. As
the pew is ahuge, rude, box-like affair,
the vicar is in great distress and has
labored in vain to argue the trouble
some layman into more reasonable
state of mind.

Harvard College raised money by
lottery as late as 1906. In that year
it offered for sale 10000 tickets at SIS
each, the prizes ranging from $15, 900
down to ST. The prospectus issued
stated that Sin the above scheme the
just expectations of the publick, and
the interest of the University, have
been consulted. 1t is worthy the at
tention of adventurers, that the high
est prize is nearly double in value to
any that has been drawn in this Com
monwealth for many years past, though
the usual price of tickets is preserved.
The Managers solicit the patronage Of
the publick in general, and of the
friends of Literature and the Uniyers-
ity in particular; and, considering the
object of the Lottery, they will com
bine the prospect Of gain with the
certainty Of beneftting the University,
and by lending their aid to the means
of education, will promote the best in
terests Of their country"

The idea that a country has only
one National flag is almost universal,
but generally wrong. For example,
Great Britain, her colonies and depen-
denotes, have 1l8. Russia comes
next with thirty-two and the German
Empire follows with twenty-five. The
United States is content with seven
teen, Spain with five, Turkey with
three and Uruguay with two.
