' The Mount Lebanon (New York) Shakers are a quiet com munity, secluded from the fret and worry of the outside world. They are widely known, how ever, for their strict honor and probity in business. The Shakers believe that na ture has a remedy for every. dis ease. A few have been found the rest are as yet unknown. Many were discovered by acci dent. Others caine to light as the result of patient experiment and research. Nervous Dyspepsia is a com paratively new <isease, growing out of the conditions of modern life. It is a joint affection, of the digestive organs and of the nervous Eysten. These two were formcrly treated as sepa rate ailents, and it was left for the clear-sighted Shakers to prove that the basis of this terrnble and often fatal compli cation lies chiefly in the disord ered and depraved functions of digcstion and nutrition. They reasoned thus:-"If we can in duce the stomach to do its work, and stimulate the excre tive organm to drive out of the body the poisonous waste mat ters which rcnaih after the life giving lenents of the food hiavo been absorlbe(l, we shall have conquered Nervous Dys pepsia and Nervous Exhaust ion. And they were right. Knowing the infallible power of Shaker Extract (Seigel's Syrup) in less complicated though s i m i1 a r diseases, they resolved to -Lst it fully in this. To leave no ground for dIoubt they prescribed the remedly in huaidrcd.> of cases which hr.d been pronounced in curable- -with perfect success in every instaml( ,mere their directions as to living and diet were GCrwpulouly 'J iollowed. Nervous iDywM-pa and Ex haustion is a pecularly Ameri can disease. To a greater or less extent half the people of this country suffer from it both sexes and all ages. In no, country in t lie world are there' so many insane ay'lums filled to overflowing, all resulting from this alarming disease. Its leading sympton .3 are these: Frequent or continual head ache; a dull pain at the base of the b)rain; bad breath; nau scous eructations; the .rising of sour and pungent fluids to the throat; a sense of oppress ion and faintness at the pit of the stomach ; flatulence; wake fulness and loss of eleep; dis gust with food even when weak from the need of it; sticl;y or slimy matter on the teeth or in thme mouth, especially on ris ing in tihe morning; furred and coated toug:ue; dull eyes; cold hands and~ feet; constipation; dry or rough skin ; inability to fix the mind on any laibor call ing for continuous attention; and olppressivo and sad fore bodings and fear3. All this terrible group Shaker 1/xtract (Seigel s Syrup) removes by its pos itive, powerful, direct yet painless and gentle action upon the functions of digestion and assimilation. Those elements of the food that build up and strengthen thme system are sent upon their mission, while all waste matters (the ashes of life's fire) which unremnoved,-'poison and kill, are ex-telled from the body th1roug~h the bowvels, kid neys and 'skin. Thme weak and prostrated ner'ves are quieted, toned and icd by the purified blood. As the result, health, with its enjoyments, blessings and power, returns to the suf ferer who had, perhaps, aband oned all hope of ever seeing For the IftAaL AND isWi A Plea for Prohibition. NEWR8RY COUNTY, 8.0 Jan.10, 1887. Mit. EDITOR :-I think that the frient of prohibition should let themselves 1 heard from as often as possible. VV are patriots and as such demand a Pica Ing. I don't mean that so-called patt'lo lim that men lay claim to for polltleal( military positions, nor that which loot no further than the bodily and tempt ral interests of miel; but a patriotist that sighs for the answer to the petitior "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be don on earth as it is heaven. ' Not a p triotism that calls men to repeatin rifles and machine guns.-but sencs me and womnen down upon their knees an to the use of peaceable weapons for tih defence of the right. We are in a contest of right agahus wrong, and, like the pretcllers of righl cousness in the early days of ChristJai ity, we Qt ht to say, "We can not bi speak." Tat the liquor trafile is wron is sanctioned by a "cloud of witnesses. The time was when whiskey was sold a any location; then the law said it mum not go closer than the distance of a mil to a church in the county. It was fui tier restricted by allowing only quat license, and next it was driven out c the country into incorporations. 4 hn does this say for whiskey ? It ay plainly that it Is unruly and mustb placed where it can be managed with policeman's billy and a calaboose. Th law (I care not whether it be National State or municipal,) has raised the Il eense. What does this mean ? Th same thing, in meaning, that a perjure says to the offerer of t he bribe : "I ca not swear for you for $25, but pay in $500 and I'll go on the stand for you. Tihe goiernment plainly says, "er cagnize the fact that this isan iniquitou business, but if you'll pay uns enoug we'll let you carry it on." We will not go into the devote homes and pull out the besotted me and hollow-eheeked women and cowel lug. half-naked children. These hay been brought to the public gaze enougi You can't touch a whiskey man's heat with this kind, only to make him pou out a torrent of curses. Put piety o the stand. Make faith, hope and lov kiss the Bible on this thing, and they'] tell you, without a blush or tremor, ' w never got at that business." No I th whiskey man cannot ask God's blessin upon his cause or his traffic. Who eve heard of a bar keeper having famil worship? We want to put down wron and establish right. We pray and wor for righteousness to cover the cart) Some of the dwellers in the town c Newberry want us to skip them. W cannot give you the go by. You ar our town. What effects you effects u: and vice versa. Let me say in conclusion that proh bition is coming. Men need not le0 around and get up the weak-kneed pr< hibition towns who did not have ith grit to stand up and see the thing out t prove that it will not come. This prove nothing against prohibition, but it Is poser for whiskey men. People wh are looking to the God and Christ < righteousness lire working this movc mint. We are praying for the convel sion of bar keepers and drunkards an vot lug when we can get the chance, c petitioning the Legislature, and askin our God to smile on us and our work I putting an end to the sale of whiskel We extend to all a hearty invitation t come now and join in the good worl that they may not in the end be foun among the vanquished, but wear th victor's wreath. I trust that what I have written wi not In the least irritate any man. have not written in a captious spirit t all. I am the loving friend of ever man, but a foe to wiskey selling. .JALAPA.
