The Great Drawback 
Of most remedies lsilielr lack of thoroughness. 
They do not remove the original cause of the 
symptoms, although they may temporarily re¬ 
lieve these. The marked superiority of Hostet¬ 
lers stomach Hitters to rival medicines adver¬ 
tised or asserted to produce kindred results Is 
exhibited In the decisiveness and permanency or 
its effects, as contrasted with the Instability and 
Heeling character of theirs. A lack of digestive 
and asslinhatlve power la attended by many 
symptoms often erroneously ascribed to other 
cause*, and which If, Is impossible to relieve with a 
mere placebo. Radical means are the only effec¬ 
tual ones, nay, more, the use of such as are not 
so In medication, is usually irrational and pro¬ 
ductive of more ultimate harm than present good. 
To quell pain, to allay nervous excitement, to re¬ 
lieve despondency, the rebellious organs must be 
brought Into subjection, ana their activity Insured 
by toning and regulating them.

“ Mercy!" exelaimed an old lady upon first 
seeing an engraving of the passage of the Red 
Sea by the children ol Israel, “ mercy ! what a 
family the man had !"—Boston Transcript. 
Here is a fairhit at the singers. “Mam¬ 
ma,” asked a little girl, “why is it they sing 
iu church, ' We’regoing home to dine no more,’ 
and then go right home and dine Gongre-

“Think twice before you speak once.” That 
is a good euough rule for some people; but 
there are folks who can think of so much 
meauer things to say the second time of trying 
that we prefer to hear their first inspiration 
on the subject. 
A stranger, passing a church-yard and see¬ 
ing a hearse standing hard-by, inquired who 
was dead. Ths sexton informed him. “ What 
complaint?" asked the inquisitive one. Said 
the old wan. “There is no complaint; every 
body is satisfied." 
Old Mrs Skittieworth doesn't know why peo¬ 
ple will will make counterfeit money. She 
says she tried to pass a bad half-dollar a 
dozen limes the other day, Lut nobody would 
have it, and she thinks it is a waste of time 
to make such stuff. 
An old lady visiting the Antiquarian Muse- 
um in Edinburgh the other day, ou inspecting 
the old weapons very earnestly, and failing 
to find what she was apparently looking for, 
asked a visitor if he could tell her whereabouts 
they kept the Axe of the Apostles. 
This notice was once fixed upon a church 
door in Hertfordshire, aud read in the church: 
“This is to give notice that no person is to 
be buried iu this churchyard but those living in 
in the parish; and those who wish to bt buried 
are desired to apply to me. Ephraim Grubb, 
Parish Clerk.” 
An old lady from New Bedford visited Bos¬ 
ton recently for the first time, and, while 
viewing the attractions of the public garden, 
was pointed out the bronze statute of Charles 
Bumner. “ Well, I declare," the old lady re¬ 
marked, “I never knew Sumner was a col¬ 
ored man before." 
An exchange tells of a man who had sixty- 
five dollars stolen from him, aud who soon 
after received twenty-five dollars with the 
following note ; “ I sioled v«fi r money. Re¬ 
morse naws ut my conshens, aud 1 scud you 
some of it back. When remorse naws again, 
I’ll send you some moie.” 
“Goons at half-price,"said tliesign. • llow 
much is (hat tea poi ? ’ asked the old lady who 
had been attracted by the announcement.*‘Fifty 
cents, luuiu." "I guess I’ll take it, then,"she 
said, throwing down a quarter. The dealer let 
her have the teapot, but took iu his sign before 
another customer could come in.—Boston 
Transdript. 
A little four-year-old girl was having her 
picture taken. The artist said. »* You must 
keep your mouth shut, my dear, and your eyes 
opeu," ns the little one showed a decided in¬ 
clination to open her mouth and close her eyes. 
But ou being instructed, 6hu braced up, and 
after a few minutes, wonderiugly asked :— 
“ Now what shall 1 do with my nose ?” 
An Irishman once saw a clock which show¬ 
ed the Greenwich and Dublin time, and he saw 
that the Dublin time was twenty m'mutes be- 
hiud that of Greenwich, and he asked how 
that was. and it was explained to him that 
Dublin being to the west of the first meridian, 
must have its time later thau that of Green¬ 
wich. “Thcu, he the powers!” says Pat, 
“ there’s another injustice to ould Ireland!”
