Various rumors wpre set afloat as to why it should be rung, but no one could give a satisfac tory reason. .After hesitating a good while some ono, with more nerve than the others, entered the belfry and found a young white boy, named James Dar win, tolling away as solemnly os those*, ton would for a funeral. He was asked why he was doing so, and big reply was; “That his father's dog had just died, and he had instructed him to go and toll the bell to announce the sad news to the citi zens of the town."—New York Commer cial Advertiser.

The “Favorite Prescription” is invaluable in all utorino Doubles, in flammations, ulcerations, displacements, nervous disorders, prostration, exhaus tion, or hysteria.
