The Music of Nature. The bass of thunder is con. lower than the lowest sound produced in an orchestra—below the zero of music, we may call it, at which all positive ap prehension of musical sound ceases, and our senses are merely conscious of a roar. In observing the music of thunder, our attention, however, may be most profit ably directed to the expression rather than to the notes. The musical dim inuendo is more perfectly represented by thunder than by any other form of sound in nature. After th^ first clap is over, the ear will pursue with pleasure the lolling away and gradual fainting of the peal, until at immeasurable distance it sinks into silence. The melody of rain dancing on the stones, or pelting down in its first drops on the dry soil of a forest or a hearth, is a species of sound which the art of music has yet to imitate, if it would complete its at present very incomplete list of in struments. The Mexicans had some rattles made of very peculiar clay, with pipes inside, which wre intended to rep resent this sound. Certain tribes of the North American Indians have been simi larly fascinated ty the loud plash of water, to the beauty of which we have alluded before. They have instruments constructed accordingly with a view to to reproduce this sound. Large buffalo hides are filled with water and sewn up in the manner of wine bags. Drum sticks of cork, or with their heads cov ered by a very fine gum, are wielded by the player, and the gentle and monoto nous plash of water is produced by the drumstick striking softly on the skin. The natives will sit and listen to these instruments for hours. Certain tribes on the Amazon have in a similar way been fascinated by the music of the waterfall. Musical instruments were found in use among them consist ing of a complicated mechanism by which water was poured from one bowl into another, in imitation of the cascade, and then returned by the receiving bowl into the vessel which had poured it; so that by a repetition of this mechanism a constant murmur of a cascade could be kept up so long as the audience desired or the player was able to perform it.— Good Words.

Schroeder, Gilbertviile, Iowa, stated April 10, 1884. that he had used St. Jacobs Oil in his stables for horse complaints and upon himself for rheumatism, and had found it the best remedy he had ever tried. Again February 11,1887, he writes: *T have used St. Jacobs Oil for rheumatism and sore back, as stated, and it cured; and for burns and bruises it does its work as recommended to do. I always keep it in the bouse and recommend it to my neighbors.”—Mr. John Garbutf, 650 Minna St., San Francisco. Cal., writes: “Some time back I sprained my knee and suffered agony until I tried St. Jacobs Oil. The result was a speedy and permanent cure.”—Miss Ida M. Fleming, 7 S. Carey St., Baltimore, Md., says: *T had been afflicted for two years with neuralgia, and tried every means to get rid of the tor menting disease. 1 had been given so much quinine that my nervous system was seriously injured.

It’s a scrofulous affection of the lungs — a blood taint — and, as in every other form of scrofula, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is a certain remedy. But it must be taken in time—and novo is the time to take it. It purifies the blood — that’s the secret. Nothing else acts like it. It’s the most potent strength-re storer, blood - cleanser, and flesh- builder known to medical science. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, and all lingering Coughs, it’s a remedy that’s guaranteed^ in every case, to benefit or cure. If it doesn’t, the money is re turned. In other words, it’s sold trial. No other medicine of its ku^l is. And that proves that not is “just as good” as the ery.” * The dealer is thinkin profit, not of yours, wh icthing el on Mrs. Leroy G.

Dr. Kilmer, Binghamton, N. Y. Kind Sir:- I had been troubled for years with that terrible disease Rbeuma- tism and last Spring, a year ago, I was confined to my bed and could scarcely move or stir. Could not bear to have any one walk across the room or make any noise of any kind. Was also troubled with Female Weakness and was completely used up. I had doctored with the best Physicians I could get, but grew worse all the time. Having read of your Rem edies I at last made up my miud to try them. I had very little faith for I thought, perhaps, they were no better than lots of others that I had used before without any benefit. But thanks be to God and also to you, I tried them and found it to my benefit. I only took two bottles of your Swamp-Root and one of Female Remedy and used one bottle of your U. & O. Anointment and was com pletely cured. It is now over one year since I "was troubled and yet I have not felt a single touch or return of the old complaints. I think I was better before I had taken one-half of the first bottle. I now believe and have more faitb in you than any other doctor on earth. If this will be of any benefit to you or others, you cau publish it and if need be I can prove it by more than twenty good and reliable people in this vicinity. God bless you and yours, and with great respect, Mrs. Leroy G. Coville. [The preceding testimonial was set up in this office from the original letter written by Mrs. Coville.
