Endon.rU by Wm. 11. Vanderbilt.
From the EllenTille Journal.
One of our townsmen being in New
York recently, had occasion to visit one
of the city bank 9. A gentleman entered
the bank, and with a nervous air pushed
forward to the principal officer’s desk,
where he presented a note for a heavy
amount and desifed to have it discounted.
The bank officer took the paper, examin
ed it, and pointing to the name on the
back, said. “That name, sir, is not good
here; we can’t take that paper.” “Then,”
said the other. "I am ruined—ruined!”
With a hurried glance at the bystander,
the man was about ta withdraw the
worthless note, but another gentleman
who had been engaged close by, and who
had evidently observed what was going
on, quietly put forth his hand, took the
rejected paper, scrutinized it, and then
having taken a good look at the man who
had presented it, lifted a pen from the
desk, and deliberately wrote under the
previous ennorsement. “Wm. 11. Vander
bilt.” The action was accompanied by the
simple words. “I guess tbal’ll go.” Then
the seventy-five millionaire—for he it
was—turned hastily away and went about
liis own business. Henceforth, for him, at
least the name of Vanderbilt will mean
something more than railroads, stocks,
and bonds.
One Man’s Idea ot Farm Economy.
A correspondent of the Rural hew
Yorker gives the following, which affords
at least food for thought;
Neighbor N., who is a small farmer in
his way, practices economy after a metb
ed of his own, which he has permitted
me to show up, and in order to do so I
use his figures. By the way, N uses fig
ures in his farming operations. To illus
trate his point, I give his account of sales
for the past year. His motto is: “If you
want a thing, raise it; or if you cannot
raise it, them raise something to buy it
with,” believing it but poor economy to
go without anything which will add to
the comfort or pleasure of home;
account or sales fob 1876.

The above account will show the varie
ty of products raised, and (is the sales are
made after the home is fully supplied, it
will be seen from the variery that a skill
ful housewife could make out a very
good farmer’s bill of fare from the lists,
perhaps with the addition of pepper and
salt, tea, coffee and sugar, although maple
sugar i9 a home production.
nr. Sclienck’s standard Remedies.
The standard remedies for all diseases
of tne lungs are Scheitek’s Pulmonic Syr
up, S<(bench's Sea Weed Tonic, and
oclisnck’s Mandrake Pills, and it taken
before the lungs are destroyed, a speedy
cure is effected.
To these three medicines Dr. 3. H.
Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unri
valled success in the treatment of pulmo
nary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the mordid
matter in the lungs; nature throws it off
by an easy expectoration, for when the
phlegm or matter is ripe a slight cough
will throw it off, the patient has rest and
the lungs begin to heal.
To enable the Pulmonic Kyrup to do this,
Sehenck's Mandrake Pills and Schenek’s
Sea Weed Tonic must be freely used to
cleanse the stomach and liver. Sehenck’s
Mandrake Pills act on the liver, removing
all obstructions, relax the gall bladder,
the bile starts freely, and the liver is re
lieved.
Sehenck’s Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle
stimulant and alterative; the alkali of
which it is composed mixes with the food
and prevents souring. It assists the di
gestion ky toning up the stomach to a
healthy condition; so that the food and
the Pulmonic Syrup will make good
blood, then the lungs heal, and the patient
will surely get well if care is taken to pre
vent fresh Cojd.
All who wish to consult Dr. Schenck,
either personally or by letter, can do so at
his principal office, corner of Sixth and
Arch, streets, Philadelphia, every Mon
day.
Sehene’ks Medicines are sold by all
druggists throughout the country.

Good Advice.
Now is the time of year for Pneumonia,
Lung Fever, &o. Every family should
have a bottle of Bosehee’s German Syrup.
Don’t allow for one moment that cough to
take hokl of your child, your family or
yourself. Consumption, Asthma, Pneu
monia, Croup. Hcoiorrh iges. and other
fatal diseases may set in. Although it is
true German Syrup is curing thousands
of these dreaded diseases, yet it is much
better to have it at hand when three do
ses will .cure you. One bottle will last
your whole family a winter and keep you
safe from danger. If you are consump
tive, do not rest until you have tried this
remedy. Sample bottles 10 cents. Reg
ular size 75 cents, field by your Drug
gist.

B'iil Test of Fertilizers for 1876 —The Commissioner of Agriculture required 500 pounds of each Fertilizer sold in Georgia to he subject to a thor

possible, each sample of 600 pounds, was divided into throe equal portions, and one portion sent to each section of the State—North, Middle and
Southern Georjia."
From *he above table, it will be seen tbat the Soluble Pacifc Guano was more thoroughly tested than any other brand, (number of tests being dou
