A Cure FOR ssa-nneE.,s;:ss.

| A gentleman who stammersd from
childhood almost Up 10 manhood gives
a very simple remedy for the nlisfor-
tune: Go into room where yeu viii BE-
quiet and alone, get some i'oak that
will interest but not excite ysgi and sit
down and read two hours aioad to
yourself, keeping your teeth together.
Do this every two or three days CT once
week if very tiresome. always taking
care to read slowly and distinctly.
moving the lips. but not the teeth.
Then when conversing. with others try
to speak as slowly and distinctly as
possible and make up your mind that
you will not stammer.
Well. | tried this remedy, rot having
much faith in it, | must confess, but
willing to do almost anything to cure
myself of such an annoying difficulty.
read for two hours aloud with my
teeth together. The first result was to
make my tongue and jaws ache-that
is, while was reading and the next
to make me feel as if something had
loosened my talking apparatus. for
could speak with less difficulty imme-
diately. The change was so great that
every one who knew me remarked it, /
repeated this remedy every five or six
days for month and then at longer
intervals until cured.

Consumption is a human
weed furnishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
DcSln with the nrSt thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption SO
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

On recent visit to Hagerstown we
noted especially something that had al
ready come under our observation on
previous visits, and that was the extreme
cleanliness of the town. We believe it to
be the cleanest town in this section. and
compliment its authorities and its peol lie
on that fact. Whilst we do not certainly
know. we also believe it to be one of the
very healthliest towns in this section, and
this, we have no doubt. is largely due to
the cleanliness of its streets ard alleys.
