Suggestions oe the Season.?King
winter bus waved his sceptre over the
land, whitening the earth, bridging
the streams, and turning the water?
falls to pendant crystal. Upon ani?
mated as well as inanimate nature, the
frigid atmosphere produces a marked
effect. The blood is driveu from the
surfaoe of the body back upon its
inner fountains, and chills and fever,
rheumatism, pulmonary diseases, bil?
iousness and uupleasuut disorders oi
the stomach und bowels are apt to be
the results.
Now, what is requirod to fortify tho I
system against tho attacks of disease
thus engendered? Clearly a tonic,
which, acting through tho stomach
upon tho circulation aud tho nervous
system, shall re-determine tho vita)
fluid to thu surface, and brace the
nerves of motion and seusutiou. But
this is not all that is required. With
the tonic must be combined snob alte?
rative and regulating agoncies as will
tend to keep the whole animal ma?
chinery "in good working order."
These three grand requisites of a
winter restorative exist, in their fullest
perfection, in llostetter's Stomach
Bitters, whioh aro compounded of the
purest vegetable stimulants and ex?
tracts of tho most genial and healthful |
roots, barks aud plants thut the her?
balists and botanists of the world have
yet discovered.
Defensive medication is a precaution
which should never be neglected when
danger is present, and, therefore, a
course of the Bitters, at this season, is
partioulurly desirable, especially for
the feeble and sickly. As a remedy fur
biliousness,. dyspepsia, nervousness
and bowel complaints, there is nothing
comparable to this wholesome restora?
tive. A ' Dec 18 t3fll
Schenox'bI^andbake Pills will be
found to possess those qualities neces?
sary to the t'otal eradication of all bi?
lious attaoks)prompt to start tho se?
cretions of the liver, and give a healthy
tone to the entire system. Indeed, it
is no ordinary discovery iu medical
science to have invented a remedy for
these stubborn complaints, which de?
velop all the results produced by a
heretofore free use of culomol, a mine?
ral justly dreaded by mankind, aud ac?
knowledged to bo destructive iu the
extromo to the huraau system. That
the properties of certain vegetables
comprise all tho virtues of calomel,
without its injurious tendencies, is now
an udmltted tact, rendered indisputa
bio by scientific researches; and those
who use tho Mandrake Pills will be
fully satisfied that the best medicines
are those provided by nature in the
common herbs ami roots of the fields.
These pills open the bowels and correct
all bilious derangements without sali?
vation or any of tho iujurious efieots
of calomel or other poisons. Tho se?
cretion of bile is promoted by these
pills, as will be seen by the altered 1
color of the stools, aud disappearing
of tho sallow complexion aud olonnsiug
of tho tongue. Ample directions lor
use accompany each box of pills. Pre?
pared only by J. II. Sckenck & Sou,

Primarily Iba Unknowable moved

'\ 2. And protoplasm waa ioorganio

3. And the Unknowable said, Let

4. And tho Unconditioned differen?
tiated the atoms, and ench alter its

5. And there went out a spirit of
evolution from the Unconditional, and
working in protoplasm, by accrotiou

G. And the cell by nutritiou evolved

then begin creeping things to multi?

8. And oarthly atom in vegetable
protoplasm begat tho molecule, and
thence cumo all grass and every herb

0. And animalcnlre in tho water
evolved fins, tails, claws and sealer-;
and in tbo air wings aud beaks, aud
on the laud they sprouted such organs
as were necessary as played upon by
the environment.
10. And by the accretion aud ab?

and artioulata begat vertebrala.
11. Now thoso are the generation of
the higher vertebrata, in the cosmic
period, that the Unknowable evolatod

12. And every man of the earth,
white ho was yet a monkey, and the

13. Out of the aseidia? came tue

aud the pendaotyle, by inheritance
and selection, produced tho bybolote,
from which are the simiadio in ull their

14. And ont of the simiadte the le?

15. And tho platyrbiuo begat the

17. Aud iu process of the cosmic

dial types. i
18. The houuculus, tho proguathus, I
the troglodyte, the nutochtou, tho tor- ;
ragou?these arc the generations of
primeval man.
10. And the primeval man wae
naked and not ashamed, but lived in j
qaadrutnacous innocence, and strug?
gled mightily to harmonize with the

20. Aud by inheritance and natural

21. And man grew a thumb for that

22. For, behold, the swiftest men
caught the most animals, and the
swiftest animals got away from the'
most men; wherefore the slow animals .
were eateu aud the slow men starved

23. Aud as types were differentiated,

A Disgusted IjfitanAit.?The city of i
Chicago has a burglar who professed
to bo shocked by the meanness aud i
false pretences of the inhabitants.
Tho whole towu, accordiug to a btutu
meut before us, has been pul in u
stnto of consternation by u mysterious
plunderer, supposed to be "Jack, of
Pitlsburg," who enters houses while
tho inmates aro at supper, rifles tue
jewelry boxes and greenback boards
and silver baskets, uud wheu nut by
any of those whom he has plundered,
bows himself out, saying that he ha;,
mistaken tho house. No oue had any
idea of the grctmbucks boirdod away,
tbo costly jewels that fond husbands '
ami fathers and friends had bestowed
as souvenirs of their affection; thy
watches, brooches, rings aud neck
lacos binding with diamonds und pearls,
and built up with solid gold, that were
jtl?t lying around loose in thoso Chi?
cago houses, and that are now mourned
by their disconsolate owners. It
seems, however, that "Jaok" considers I
himself as much an injured man as his
victims, for bo writes to the Tribune to |
Huy that iu most of tbo houses be en?
tered, he found chiefly dollar-store1
jewelry, piollbaok watches, oroide and
tbo like, that the whole amouut of his
plunder will not suffice to buy him a
first class ticket to Pittsburg, and that
tho people who nro bewailing tho loss
of their valnablcs never owued any-1
thing more valuable than a Cape INI iy I
diamond, unless it was a Cairngorm 1
pebble. Well may tho heart of a con- j
scieutious burglar be appalled at such {
iniquity.

A Spare Artiste.?Apropos of Sa?
rah .Bernhardt, who ie tbin as a ghost,
the Paris Figaro tells the following
wicked story: "Her theatre dresser
was complaining to the cleaner of the
comedio that the dresbiug-roouis were
not kept in good order. 'Why,' said
?he, 'only imagine, I found n flea in
M'lle Sarah Bernhardt's dressing-room
ouly last night.' 'Poor beast,' said
the unsympathizing employee, *he

tated whether or not to try to make it
up with his wife again, and while he
was hesitating, his wife married an

naturally be aalled getting left all

this when bitten or stung, and I will

disabled thai 1 eonld not, but to a limitod
extent, ptulorni the uutios <>f my vocation.
How muoli in that long period was endured
-the pain, the loss of blood, the exhaust*
?en I could not undertake to tvll. When
jsaw me. :nj condition was such that I
lam .-at.1 without idiot thero would
have been .tt no very distant dava fatal ter?

that 1 it ?w auuonnco the rt-markablo cure
which, iu the goodness of Div'nio Provi?
dence, has been effected by your skillful
treatment and well-practici tl hand. Fifteen
months have t'lapsed Hiur-ntho operation,
auil 1 find ho indications of a return of tho
disease. The improvement in my general
health has been, l think, very considerable,
ami Iheconifort of complete exemption front
the annoyance and tuff ring ti> which I had
so loug been subjected, is a blessing more
than I had hoped for, aud is wclloalculated
to keep yon in grateful remembrance Ik
