The Best Tonic for Fowls.
Probably the best tonic for fowls, declares
the New York Observer, is the
"Douglas mixture." Take one pound
of sulphate of iron and two ounces of
sulphuric acid and dissolve in one gallon
of water. Add one tablcspoonful of this
mixture to one gallon of drinking water j
for the birds, liemove the droppings
from the poultry houses every morning
instead of once or twice a week, as <s
often directed. If this practice were
strictly adhered to there would be leas
disease among poultry and better results j
generally. Cull the fowls very closely.
It will not pay to winter disqualified
birds. There is more success with fewer j
birds and higher prices.
Want of Appetite in a Horse.
A horse will refuse to eat sometime? '
because its teeta are diseased or its
mouth sore. Examine the mouth, and
if there is anything wrong have it remedied
by proper treatment. A sharp,
broken tooihshonld be rasped down; an
ulcerated tooth with swollen gums
around it should be extracted; sore gums
should be dressed with powdered chlo

the mouth is all right give the horse a
pint of raw linseed oil in the evening,
and in the morning a quart of linseed
tea, strained, with a dram each of powdered
sulphate of iron and gentian root
in it. Feed, an hour after, a rather
warm bran mash, but give no other food
until the horse is eager for it. Most
often an overfed horse is best treated by
a week's semi-starvation.?New York
Times.
Potatoes.
Edmund Herscy's experience leads him
to the following conclusions: Whole
potatoes will produce a crop from a week
to ten days earlier than cut potatoes.
Small whole potatoes will produce for
many years in succession ju t as good, if
not better results,4 thrm large potatoes
cut the size of the small oues. The seed
end of a potato is better to plant than
' the stem end, because the plant starts
with more vigor, aud produce larger
and more potatoes. A large piece of
potato is better to plant in ordinary soil,
and will produce a much better crop
than very small p'eces or single eyes, i
Potatoes with sprouts long enough to
break o If in planting are not as good as
potatoes with their eyes started ju^t
enough to show their good condition.
The form of a potato cannot, as a rule,
be changed by the selection for planting
?m- ^articular form. Two distinct va
rieties will not mix by planting in the
amehill. The potato scab is a blemish
that the more we investigate the less we
apppear to know about it.?lndejpemlcht.
Properly Mixing Crcnm.
In commenting upon the mixing and
ripening of crea:n before churning, :
Hoard's Dairyman says: "Not long |
since a farmer's wife complained to us i
that she did not get the yield of butter
from her cows that one of her neighbors
did, and she wished to know if we could
give her any light on the subject. Upon i
inquiry we found that the cows on both !
farms were neighbors, and handled about
alike. But when we inquired further
into the manner of earing for the cream,
we saw at once where the difficulty lay.
It was her practice to skim her milk
every morning, ana pui me cream iuio
an earthen jar which was kept in the i
cellar. Churning was done twice a
week, if her husband or the boys were
not too busy. But the particular point
where she failed was putting in the last i
skimming of cream immediately after it i
was taken from the milk. When we
told her that she received but little
benefit from the last skimming thus i
handled, she could hardly be persuaded
of the truth of our assertion. We are i
convinced that this mistake is largely in- !
dulged in by the makers of farm butter. j
But they might about as well throw the
last skimming to the pig, for there is j
where it finally goes in the buttermilk." j
Cow Pea Vine as Fertilizer.
While my trees were small, says a cor-!
respondent of the Itural N:io Yorker. I
commenced planting peas and turning :
the vines under while green. It took
but one or two trials to satisfy me that
the cost was greater than the benefit received.
I then tried planting later, allowing
the vines to mature and die upon
the ground. This proved much more
no flifl naoa Y"!'11 fl I

for seed and labor, -while the land was
left in much better condition. About
this tijieJseciij^Uefti.Af |]ic Cpflrfe-ftear"
Wluclj I continued to use until the trees
were too large to permit of its being
grown su.cessfully. The method I fol-,
lowed was to keep the ground
thoroughly cultivated until about the 1
first of June, then mark off in checks ,
three feet each way. When the ground
is thoroughly moist, plant two seeds in 1
each checK, allowing but one plant to
the hill when well established. This
pea would cover the ground if planted ;
twice distance apart. The advantage of
close planting is that they will cover the
fround in half the time, saving much la- j
or in keeping the ground clean until
the vines cover it. By planting in checks
the cultivator or sweep can be run both
ways, leaving but little to 1 e done with
the hoe. If the ground is kept clean un.
til the vines cover it, very little grass or
weeds will grow, the pea-vines forming a |
derise ma-s of vegetation, and taking the
best of eare of the grove until the fol- j
lowing February, when the soil will be j
found Eoft and mellow, and the vines I
sufficiently decayed to break up easily
with the cultivator or plough. It will ;
be necessary to go over the grove ouce
each week to keep the vines off the
orange trees. But little seed will be
produced, enough, however, to in part'
pay the expense of planting.
Swine.
A paperread by Theodore Louis, Louisville,
Wis., at one of the Wisconsin Far- i
rners' Institutes contained the following '
practical suggestions on the raising of
swine: Clover, green or in a dry state, is '
always of first importunce. The near
future will probably develop the fact that j
the silo will enable the farmer to winter !
his swine at less cost, and insure them
with health and vigor. Squash, pump- j
kiDS, rutabagas and maugles will cheapen i
the cost of production and add materially j
to the growth. Bran, middling,, ground !
oats, of e<|ual parts, steamed aud fed
warm, will be found profitable feeding, ;
as to growth, development of muscle and
bone. If oil meal is added, well cooked,
one pound to twenty, it will fill the bill
of fare for milk aud a large proportion
of nitrogen. Where buttermilk is fed
in large quantities, one pound of oil
meal, well cooked, added to every
hundred pounds of milk, will increase !
the leeding valu# highly. Buttermilk is
slightly constipating, but the oil meal!
will remedy this. The food should he
as nature left it?sweet. Sour, decayed j
swill ia poieon. Salt should always be
placed where swine have access to it in
^ their yards or pens, in troughs or shelves.
-A
not on the ground in barnyards, a9 it
will absorb the poison of yards. Two
bushels of charcoal, broken into fine
particlcs. one-half bushel of wood ashes,
eight quarts of talt, well mixed, one and
one-qtiai ter pound of green copperas,
either d'ssolved ir water or ground tine,
mixed with the acove, should always be
in a self-feeding-box, with a good cover
on it. where swine can have free access to
it. When high feeding of carbonaceous
and concentrated food is resorted to in
time of fattening, soft sandstone, brick
dust, or even dry clay, will be greatly
relished?in fact all the above ingredients
are essential to aid digestion and kill
intestinal worms. I consider ground
food, as a rule, the most economical.
Suggestions About Packing Appl-s.
In packing app'es the practice is to
face two rows of fair, sightly apples,
stem down, aga'nst the head, to be
opened when offered for sale, as in this
way they look better when the barrel is
opened than if they were put in last and
pressed down by the head. After tho
apples, in what is to be the opeaing eud
of the barrel, are properly arranged, it
may be tilled up by laying the fruit in
indiscriminately, but small or imperfect
aoDles should all be kept out. The
barrel should be packed as full as it I
can be made to hold, and a little gentle
rocking is allowable, as the tilling proceeds,
to assist in settling them uniformly.
The last apples put in should
come up above the croze in the barrel,
so that when the screw is used to put the
head down into its place the packing
will be tight enough to prevent any
shaking or movement of the apples when
the barrels are handled. The pro. er
degree of pressure to be applied can
omy be learned by experiuce, but it is
quite as often too little as too much.
It is worthy of note that apples
slightly bruised or indented by the pressure
of the heads do not ordinarily rot
from that cause, while if injured to the
same extent in some other way before
they were barreled they would do so.
The dillerencc is probably owing to the
continued pressure; as it is penera'Iv
believed apples keep better under J
pressure in the barrel than when laid in j
loosely, or when put into bulk previous j
to barreling.
It is advised, when packing apples in
barrels, to make first and second quali- |
ties, and in cases where there is a small j
portion 01* unusually large fruit, even a
third quality. In this way uniformity
+ r*r>nr\ f 1 t? f A tllft j
Ill ttll.Uil luuiuwiuw givuvij iv iuv |
appearance, can be preserved, and,
while one quality will sell higher than a
lower one, the aggregate amount received
will be larger than when large,
medium and small apples are packed
together.
It is sometimes advised to pack both
heads al:ke, so that when opened each
end shall 6how courses of the best apples,
stem upward. A more general and
far better way is: After the apples have
been faced to the head standing on the
ground and the barrel is lilted up to the
croze, to finish up witti apples that will
well represent the smallest ones the bar- j
rel contains. Two good reasons ean be '
given for so doing. One is that a3 the
apples are to be pressed down small ones j
will lie closer together and pack down ;
better under the pressure of the head j
than large ones will, and if a few are '
squce ed too hard the damage will be
less than if they were of the largest. !
Another atid still better reason is that a
buyer may in this way have the opportunity
of seeing a sample of the smallest as
well as of the largest and be3t.
Extremes, however, should be avoided, |
and unusually large and fine apples
should be packed by themselves, hs be- i
fore intimated, and form an ext.*a fine
quality to be sold for a fancy price, and
quite small ones should not be packed at
all. Only good, fair si/ed and merchantable
apples should go in as No. 1, and
the small size should be packed as No. ;
2. Uniformity in size should be preserved
throughout as well as possible,
except th:it when opened one head may
show slightly above and the other slightly
below the general average.?New York

hay and is more apt to become musty.
The farmer of to-day with brains and
ambition to make his farm pay must cleai
his mind of cobwebs and his back of
moss. He must read as well as labor.
Plant your trees, vines, etc., this fall.
Do not postpone the work until spring.
If you can not possibly plant this fall,
get the trees now and heel in until
spring.

CRANBERRIES
HOW THE LITTLE BERRY If
RAISED ON CAPE COD.
The Construction and Co9t of i
Bo^ ? Setting the Vine9 ?
When and How the
Crop is Harvested.
The Boston Herald, describing cran
berry cultuie in Cape Cod, says: I'suall;
there are three years of constant expensi
to a bog before any income is derive<
from it, and three years seem long whei
one thinks of the capital invested
Meanwhile ice, frosts, droughts, fire 01
worms may destroy the crop, and nearl;
everything must be done over again
while weeds must be fought perpetually
In making a bog a piece of wild swam]
land is selected. The conditions to h
observed are that it must have a goo(
quality of muck for a bottom, with ai
abundant supply of water for flowage
and also good facilities for drainage

seems to want only a moderate amoun
of moisture while growing and bearing
There must also be an ample supply o
Band at hand.
The first step in construction is cut
ting the trees and mowing down th<
bushes with a stub scythe. These an
heaped up and burned. Following thi:
is the "turfing" process, wherein thi
entire surface of the bog is cut int<
squares by turf axes.
'.Next the stumps are removed, anc
then comes the process of ditching
The usual method on large bog3 is t<
have one large ditch through the nxiddl<
of the bog with numerous side branchei
which drain into i;, keeping the boj
comparatively dry in summer, while or
the approach of frost in the fall the flow
of water is stopped, and all the available
supply turned upon the bog to cover and
protect the vines and fruit fro.n Jack
Frost's nipping fingers. To facilitate
flowing the bog is made a9 nearly a;
practicable one vast level, or only rises
a few inches at the most. The next step
after grading is to sand it, and for this
+Vi? Donrl mnat hp onarsfl anfl
gravelly. The bog is usually covered tc
a depth of four inches, the wetter portions
re [uiring more than this. The bog
is now ready to set with vines, whici
must be brought from some older bog,
and consist now of three leading varieties,
Hoots are never set, but cuttings an
used exclusively. An instrument called
a punch, which somewhat resembles a
dagger, having a flat blade 1.V inches
wide, is used to open the soil. The shool
or cutting is stuck into the cleft, anc
the earth crowded down around it.
Eighteen inches space is left on all side;
of each plant.
A completed bog will average in cost,
aside from the first price of the land,
about $400 per acre before the vines an
Bet. These cost $5 for a quantitj
sufficient for an acre, and the expense oJ
setting them is Id cents per rod, or $lt
per acre. All of the turting, ditching,
stumping aud sanding are done by the
square rod, and all of it ft as to ue none
by hand, for the swamp is unsuitable
footing for horses.
Having completed the bog, the next
thing is to fight the weeds and replace
any vines which may have failed to take
root. The l.ttle stalk, which is about ai
large as the lead of a pencil, puts oul
runners in all directions and continue!
to grow until the third year, when t
crop can be expected with some certainty,
Vines often bear a few berries in theii
second year, but the crop is rarely picked,
As the vines spread they form a thick
carpet, completely hiding the bog anc
covering it to a depth of six or eight
inches The runners each vine puts oul
are several feet loag and interlace witt
one another. These runners put oul
small shoots called "uprights," and or
these in the spring appears tLe little
four parted flower. As the berry ripens,
it hangs on a stem an inch long and ii
completely hidden by the vine leaves,
which alternate on either side of thi
stem, and, although only one quartei
Inch long and one-eighth inch broad,ar<
60 plentiful as to hide the greater por
tion of the crop.
Cranberries are a crop which canno
wait, but must be harvested at one*
when ripe, or the frost will spoil then
by softening the berries and causfnj
them to drop oir the vines. This can b<
prevented by flowing the bog,if sulScien
warning is given beforehand; and hen

A large bog will employ from 150 t

that makes but a small show on some o
the largest bogs. Before work is begui
the Superintendent "lines" the bog
which consists in strctchiug white cord
across it in parallel lines about six fee
apart, each picker being given a space
which must be picked clean. The picker
creep on hands and knees over the vines

into companies, each appropriately lei
tered, and each individual numbered
When a picker has filled his measure h
starts for his barrel to deposit his fruit
at the same time calling out his numbe
and company letter to the book keepei
who, tablet and pencil in hand, sitsueo
the barrels and credits the picker wit'
one measure by drawing a straight lin
beside his name. The marks arc counte
at the close of the day and then tram
ferred to the regular account books.
Each measure holds about six quart;
it requiring sixteen measures to fill
barrel of 100 quarts. The pickers g<
ten cents per quart, and there is inuc
rivalry among them a9 to who can scoi
the greatest number of measures in
day. Last season one man picked c;ght
measures full, or thirtecu bushels <
cranberries, in ten hours, making ?8 f<
his day's work. All nationalities ai
represented on a bog, and the differei
factions generally get along very am
cably. They are too busy to do othe
wise.
i A picking machine ha9 been invente
and is in limited use, but does not fin
much favor with growers, who say :
tears the vines. The most successfi
one is made with a row of finders to slic
over the vine, and a cover which shu
down over them. A bacward pull di
engages the berries and moves the mi
chine off the vine.

A Sheep Whips a Dear.
Squire Peter Morley, of Kettle Creek
r Penn., owns a merino ram that can justl;
y lay claim to a distinction that no membe
, of the sheep family was eyer entitled t<
before. The ram is a big one, and whil
d Dossessinsr a formidable appearance
e never until a few days ago "developec
1 any inclination toward pugnacity. Th<
} ram is the patriari hial head of a some
, what pretentious flock of sheep, o
. which their owner is justly proud.
, 'inquire Morley had no iaea that hii
t flock or any member of it had fallen be
neath the covetous ga?.e of any maraud
f ing bear or other wild animal, but a!
there were rumors more or less alarming
- to sheep owners that the pastures of an
2 other part of the country had been in
2 spected by bruin, found good, anci
s treated accordingly, the 'Squire thoughi
31 it would do no harm to set a watch ovei
>! his pasture and keep it there until the
I arrival of the time when bears succumt
1 j to boreal surroundings and hole up.
A young son of the 'cjquire's was as
): sigued to the task of keeping an eye or
J j the fold, with instructions to destroj
i j with a shotgun, charged with buckshot,
J j any audacious bear that might endeavoi
i to select from that fold m iterial for his
' dinner. Subsequent proceedings indi
i --.-j a.! :c
, CflieU 111HI 11 juuuy Ml. iiiuuGjr uau cutcrtained
the sligntest idea that thert
: was even a remote chance of a bear api
pearing in the pasture he would have
| cheerfully acquiesced in the selection of
| some other guard for the ancestral Hock.
The young shepherd had stood guard
I at the pasture for a week, and no bear
| appeared. Consequently he uttered nc
J complHint against the job. On Saturday
> last he was sleepily reclining at the fool
of a stone wall that surrounds the field,
when he suddenly became wide awake.
I lie saw a good sized bear jump over the
; fence not far away from him and slouch
: deliberately toward where a group ol
| sheep were grazing. 'Squire Morley was
, at work in a field not more than three
hundred yards away. The young shep^
{herd, ignoring the gun that lay at his
; side, cleared the wall at a bound, and
1 sped to give the alarm to his father,
I shouting lustily at every jump and al
! the top of his voice:
i I "Bears! bear3! bears!"
1 I ''Squire Morley heard the cries Ions
5, before the guard of the fold reached
r him and hurried to the rescue of his
f flock. When he reached the pasture
i j wall the group of sheep had discovered
t ' the presence of the bear aDd had tied
! bleating in fright to the farther side ol
' the tieid?all of them, except the head
' of the fold, the merino ram. He stood
j his ground and eyed bruin threateningt
ly. The bear evidently did not want tc
1 touch old ram for his dinner, and was
5 passing on by him to select a more toothJ
some morsel from the flock, when the
t ram shot forward like a m'ssile from ?
}! catapult. He bucked the bear amid1
j ships, and bruin *601 down before the
! force of the blow as if it had been c
r stroke of lightning.
The bear got up, but surprise was
: j p'ctured all over him. He stood stil
I and gazed in amazement at the shee^
that presumed to throw down the gage
t of battle with him. The ram was there
1 for business, and hurled himself again,
t head lowered, unon the would-be de
1 spoiler of hi> flock. This time he landec
1 between the bear's eyes, and bruin's fall
> j was more positive than it had been be
1 I fore, and he lay on the ground a momeat
> i before he recovered su'-lic ently to under
J, stand exactly what had happened. 1I<
r got up again but had no time to mak<
51 up his mind what to do before the ram'i
" | thick skull was hurled against him
again, and down went the bear a thirc
^ time.
3 j These three attacks of the ram on th<
1 bear had been made so quickly thai
', 'Squire Morley had not had time to picl
1 up the gun where his son had left it anc
t get within gun shot. After the thirc
31 knock-down the bear got up, and turn
" ing tail on the ram, started in full retreat
P j But the ram caught him in the neck th<
3: next shot, and the bear dropped and laj
r , there. He had not succeeded in getting
, up when 'Squire Morley reached thi
spot, but the ram was waiting for bin
? tS-COlASL_to time. The 'Squire wasn'
J sure whetheftijfi bcuf was ti
3 remove all doubt he put a load of buck
3 , shot into its head.
r j But the victory was the ram's, and thi
r j 'Squire thinks no other guard of tha
flock is needed.

^ I had the effect of greatly stimulating thi
3 | search for them, especially on the wes

j the Sooloo Archipelago, it Ceylon ant
0 the Persian Gulf, and also along th

j $8000. With these black pearls ar
'' i found many beautiful gray and grayish
I brown pearls. The different fsherie
^ ' of the world produce fully $1,000,00

; these in the Turner group of mounds i

idea of how plentiful they were befor

The savage is emphatically the child of na
j ture. He lives close to nature, his only edu.
cat on is pained in nature's school.

Our rugged ancestors, who pierced tbf
* I wilderness, built their uncouth but comforta
1 ble Log Cabins and started the clearings in
B the woods, which in time became the broad,
9 fertile fields of the modern farmer, found in
roots and herbs that lay close at hand na
ture's potent remedies for all their common
ailments. It was only in very serious case*
they sent for old "saddle-bags" with hie
physic, which quite as often killed as cured.
Latter-day society has wandered too far
' away from nature, in every way, for its own
' good. Our grandfathers and grandmothers
f lived wholesomer, purer, better, healthier,
3 more natural lives than we do. Their minde
B were not filled with noxious isms, nor their
bodies saturated with poisonous drugs,
j Is it not time to make a change, to return
1 to the simple vegetable preparations of our
3 grandmothers, which containedy-oe power
- and potency of nature as renv&Al agents,
f and in all the ordinary ailments' were efficacious,
at least harmless?
The proprietors of Warner's Log Cabin
5 remedies have thought so, and have put on
the market a number of these pure vegetable
preparations, made from formulas secured
after patient searching into the annals of the
past so that those who want them need not
De without them.
Among these Log Cabin remedies will be
found "Los Cabin sarsat>arilla." for the
| blood: ''Log Cabin hops and buchu remedv "
t a tonic and stomach remedy; "Log Cabin
cough and consumption remedy," "Log
f Cabin hair tonic," for strengthening and re5
newing the hair: "Log Cabin extract," for
) both external and internal application; "Log
Cabin liver pills;" "Log Cabin rose cream,"
an old but effective remedy for catarrh, and
' "Log Cabin plasters." All these remedies
i .are carefully prepared from recipes which
' were found, after long investigation, to have
been those most successfully used by our
. grandmothers of "ye olden time." They are
the simple, vegetable, efficacious remedies ol
1 Log Cabin days.
The Smiths of England.
i ] How many Smiths are there in Eng
land? It is impossible to answer this
i | question wilh precision; but there are
! j data from which an approximately cor
rcct idea may be obtained. The Regis
I trar-General tells us that in 1856 it was
possible to estimate, from certain records
> j in his keeping, that there were then
r living in England and Wales about
; 253,0110 Smiths, or one in every seventythree
persons composing the entire
I population. Supposing that this estimate
) j was coricct, and that the same propori
' tion has since been maintained, the
: statement may fairly be made that there
i are now about 858, **14, or over two-thirds
s of a million, Smiths in Kngland and
Wales. It is not quite easy to realize :il
i ence what an enormous number of people
[ j those figures represent. A few simple
, I illustrations may serve to make the
; matter clearer. For instance, there are
more Smiths in England and Wales that
there are people in Dublin?indeed,
f excluding London, there are only foui
i towns in the United Kingdom?viz.,
i Birmingham, Glasgow, Liverpool ane]
? Manchester?containing more DCODle
i j than there are Smiths; while twenty-si>
i out of the fifty-two counties in Englanc
i and Wales, or one-half, have fewei
I people than the immortal house of f*mitl
i has representatives. It is on record,too,
that in the seventeen years between anc
> including 1838 and 18")"), 286,037 Smithi
? were reg'stered as having been eithei
bom or marrie 1 or died. Although, a!
) every one knows, the Smiths fom
i numerically the strongest tribe in Eng
land, there being one Smith to ever]
5 seventy-three persons comprising th<
i population, still the Joneses run then
very close, indeed, there being one ii
i every seventy-six persons. Nextinordei
1 on the list, according to officially com
) piled statistics, come Messrs. Williams
> Taylor, Davis and Brown. Mr. Rob n
> son. who is commonly associated witl
, Messrs. Brown and Jones,stands eleventl
on the list in respect of his relativi
I numerical strength. ? Charnbert'a Jour

i Old English Bread Regulations.
During ihe reigns of Henry III. anc
3 Edward I., 121U-130 ~, certain laws wen
3 passed in England regarding the weigh
J and price of bread. In the city of Lon
1 don, if the baker sold his bread himself
' by retail, he was particularly forbiddei
to sell it in his house, or before hi.'
5 home, or before the oven in which i
k had been baked. He wa< only to sell i
[ in the "king's market,"and such marke
| ; as was assigned to him, and nowhen
* I else. Bread was delivered from housi
* to house in London by regratresses o:
* female retailers. These dealeis on pur
3 chasing their stock from the baker wen
' I nllrvA nd thirteen loaves to the dozen. th<
> I extra loaf being the limit of their legiti
2 j mate profits. The baker was a'so for
1 i bidden to sell the regratresses in hii
' j shop, the sales having to take place a

3 Proof Bi ttrr Than Assertion.
t With such proof as the following letter fron
W. H. Dean, of No. 278 Seventh 6treet, Nev
York, it is not necessary to make the bare as
sertion that Allcock's Pohous Plasters curt
lumbago. Mr. Dean says:
r Some ten days ago I was taken with a verj
y violent pain in the small of my back. It was s<
I severe that I could hardly breathe; every move
0 ment caused great agony. I finally found ou
_ it was lumbago. Being entirely helpless, i
g friend sent out to a druggist and got two All
8 cock's Porous Plasters; these were wel
. warmed and applied to my back, one above thi
other. In half an hour, to my great deligli
j and surprise, I found the pain began to abate
In two houra I was able to walk out and atteni
? to my business, the pain being almost gone
* Next day I was all right, but continued wear
e ing the plasters for a week.

Very Sensible "Japs."
~ In Japan the old-school physicians are per
9 mitted to wear only wooden swords. This is t
0 gently sarcastic way of expressing the opinior
: that they kill enough people without usin^
weapons. But the drutrglst who introducec
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery into th(
9 Empire, carries a fine steel blade. It was founc
f that all who tried this wonderful remedy foi
coughs, colds, consumptive tendencies, blood
e skin and liver troubles, were, without exxiep
I, tion, greatly benefited. The Mikado liimseli i:
, said to have "toned up" his system by its use
I and the importer was therefore permittee
tl the exceptional honor of wearing the sword o:
