Dangerous Bowel Disorders.
Now that bowel disorders, such a?
cholera, cholera morbus, diarrl cea, loose
ness, paias in the bowels, etc., are prev
oleut all over the country, all should pre
pare for sudden emergencies. “Mans
field’s Mississippi Diarrl cei Cordial” is
the standard remedy. It has stood the
test by untold thousands for upwards of
thirty years, and lias never fiiled in a
single instance. Every steamer plying
the "Father of Waters” cirrtes it, and
relics upon it exclusively for the cure of
bowel disorders. One dose often alters
the secretions, and cures, and a lew doses
n:.er fail. Have it handy! It is sale,
reliable, and the best remedy of the kind
in the worid. Sold by all druggists.

■ Swift's Specific is a most excellent tonic.
1 In the month of September. 1883. my
' health failed by reason ofoverwork while
3 attending the stale icgi-l .ture. I was at
length induced to try Swift’s Speeifio and
, was greatly benefited. When 1 began
, U'ing i' I cu'd scarcely take a step, but
- aft_'r 1 hail finished the seventh bottle 1
r rea’iz'd that Swift’s Specific had enn-
• tribu'ed in a large degree to my gradual
r restoration to health and strength. I
, have also used S. S. 8. in my family with
t satisfactory results, giving it to one of my
- cliib’feii this spring. The little one’s ap
‘ pe’itc, strength, and general health were
1 perfected from the use of S. S. S.

But after the mind has been fully made
up to purchase one of these indispensa
ble articles, the question arises as to what
s kin !of a machine to buy.
It should be so simply constructed that
- the most inexperienced can successfully
- operate it. The other points mainly to be
- considered, and which are the most desir
s able, arc durability, rapidity, canacity
s for work, ease of r peration, regularity of
f motion, uniformity <f tension, and si
i lence while in operation.
t The “Light-Running New Home” fills
J the above requirements, and is said to
f combine the good points of all sewing
s ! machines, with the addition cf many
s I new improvements and labor-saving de
vices.
The price is no higher tl an that of

WANTED—A LITTLE GIRL.
Where have they gone to—tho little girls.
With natural manners and natural curls,
Who love their dollies and like tneir toys,
Aud talk of something besides the boys?
Little old women in plenty I find.
Mature in manners and old of mind;
Little old flirts who talk of their "beaux,”
And vie with each other in stylish clothes,
Little old belles, who, at nine and ten,
Are sick of pleasures and tired of men,
Weary of travels, of ba.ls, of fun—
And find no new things under the sun.
Once, in the beautiful long ago,
Some dear little children 1 used to know;
Girls who were merry as lam bs at play.
And laughed and rollicked the livelong day.
They thought not at all of the ‘‘style’’ of their
clothes.
They never imagined that boys wore ‘beaux;’
•‘Other girls’ brothers” and “mates” were
they:
Splendid fellows to help them play.
Where have they gone to? If you see
One of them anywhere, send her to mo
I would give a medal of purest gold
To one of these dear little girls of old.
With an innocent heart and an open smile.
Who knows not the meaning of “fli-t” or
“style.” —Boston Pilot.
