As the result of a number of ex

by spring. The soundest and best
corn shrinks the least, or twenty per
cent. So that forty cents a bushel

fifty cents in the spring.

One Hundred Heavy Shocks of Earthquake
-A Mountain Rises From a Lake Two
Thousand Feet Deep—Flames Burst
From the Phenomenon—The De
struction:
San Francisco, Nov. 1.—A letter
published in this evening’s Bulletin,
under date of Apia, Oct, 15, says that
authentic news has reached Samoa
to the effect that on the morning of
Sept. 10 over one hundred heavy
shocks of earthquake occurred on the
island of Nindfow, and that from the
botiom of the lake, which is two thou
sand feet deep, a mountain has arisen
to the height of three hundred feet
above “its surface. Also that this
mount lias burst out in flames and
thrown out hot stones and sand in
such quantities as to destroy two-
thirds of the cocoanut trees on the is
land. In Samoa light shocks of
earthquake occur so frequently now
that they no longer cause any
alarm.
“Hermann” is up to an extraordi
nary number of tricks with his nim
ble Jiands; but he will never take in
as much, or as many to the square
inch, as Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup in its
big raid on coughs or colds.
Exertion Necessary With Coining of
Winter.
Mouldiness is occasioned by the
growth of minute vegetation. Ink,
paste, leather, and seeds most fre
quently suffer by it. A clove will pre
serve ink; any essential oil answers
equally as well. Leather may be
kept free from mould by the same
substances. Thus, Russian leather,
which is perfumed with the tar of
birch, never becomes, mouldy; indeed
it, prevents it from occurring in other
bodies. A few drops of any essen
tial oil will keep books entirely free
from it. For harness, oil of turpen
tine is recommended.
A good way of using cold mutton
is the following: Cut the mutton in
thin slices and lav them on a disli
covered with parsley, placing a layer
of parsley between each layer of mut
ton and put in a cool place. Half an
hour before the mutton is needed put
a piece of butter in a stew pan, the
size to be governed by the quantity
of meat, and set it on the fire. When
melted, sprinkle in gradually a little
flour, stirring with a wooden spoon.
When thick enough and of a delicate
brown, add half a pint of broth, some
salt, pepper, slices of pickled cucum
bers and two or three mushrooms,
and boil for ten minutes. Lay the
slices of mutton in the sauce and sim
mer for twenty minutes and serve.
FREE TRADE.
The reduction of internal revenue
and the taking off of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers
as well as relieving the burden of
home manufacturers. Especially is
this the case with Green’s August
Flower and Boschee’s German Syrup
as the reduction of thirty-six cents
per dozen, has been added to increase
the size of the bottles containing these
remedies, thereby giving one-fifth
more medicine in the 75 cent size.
The August Flower for Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaint, and the German
Syrup for Cough and Lung troubles,
have perhaps, the largest sale of any
medicines in the world. The advan
tage of increased size of the bottles
will be greatly appreciated by the
siek and afflicted, in every town and
village in civilized countries. Sample
bottles for 10 cents remain the same
size. * 13 eow.
On Tuesday. Oct. 12,1880, the 197tli
Grand Monthly distribution of The
Louisiana State Lottery came off with
its accustomed regularity. The sum
of $265,500 went far and near, and
this was the result: No. 20,442 drew
the First Capital Prize of $75,000; it
was sold in fifths at $1 each; one to
Charles J. Herrmann, a young shin
gle maker with the Lewis L. Arms
Shingle and Lumber Co. of Muske
gon, Mich., paid to him in person; one
to Wm. H. Turner, No. 230 Randolph

one paid through Adams Express Co.

also sold in fifths at $1: one to Mrs.

and 73,392 drew each Fourth Capital
Prizes of $6,000, sold in New York
city, Chicago, San Francisco, Carth
age, N. C. and Mascoutah, 111. So
the wheel of fortune turns. The next
Drawing (the 199th Grand Monthly
and an Extraordinary Quarterly one)
will take place Dec. 14th, when the
Grand Capital Prize of $150,000 will
be given to some one. M. A. Dauphin,

ADVICE T® MOTHERS.
Are you disturbed at night and broken of your
rest by a sick child suffering and crying with
pain of catting teeth? If so, send at once and
get a bottle of MRS. WINSLOW’S SOOTHING
SYRDP FOP CHILDREN TEETHING. Its value
is incalculable. It will relieve the poor little suf
ferer immediately. Depend upon it, mothers,
there is no mistake about it. It cures dysentery
and diarrhoea, regulates the stomach and bow
els, cures wind colic, softens the gums, reduces
nflammation, and gives tone and energy to the
whole system. MRS. WINSLOW’S SOOTHING
SYRUP FOR CHILDREN TEETHING is pleasant
to the taste, and is the prescription of one of the
oldest and best female nurses and physicians in
the United States and is for sale by all druggists
throughout the world. Price 25 cents a bottle.

UNDISPUTED MERIT.
The great success of the Royal Bak
ing Powder, is due to the extreme
care exercised by its manufacturers to
make it entirely pure, uniform in
quality, and of the highest leavening
power. All the scientific knowledge,
care and skill, attained by a twenty
years’ practical experience, are con
tributed toward this end, and no
pharmaceutical preparation can be
dispensed with a greater accuracy,
precision and exactness. Every arti
cle used is absolutely pure. A num
ber of chemists are employed to test
the strength of each ingredient, so
that its exact power and effect in
combination with its co-ingredients,
is definitely known. Nothing is trust
ed to chance, and no person is em
ployed in the preparation of the ma
terials used or the manufacture of the
powder, who is not an expert in his
particular branch of the business. As
consequence, the Royal Baking
Powder is of the highest grade of ex
cellence, always -pure, wholesome and
uniform in quality. Each box is ex
actly like every other, and will retain
its powers and produce the same and
the highest leavening effect in any
climate, at any time. The Govern
ment Chemists, after having analyzed
all the principal brands in the market,
in their reports placed the Royal Bak
ing Powder at the head of the list for
strength, purity and wholesomeness,
and thousands of tests all over the
country have further demonstrated
the fact that its qualities are, in every
respect, unrivaled.
