In 1862, when I served my country as a private in Company A, 167th Penn sylvania Volunteers, I contracted chronic diarrhoea. It has given me great deal of tronble ever since. I have tried a dozen different medicines and several prominent doctors without any permanent relief. Not long ago a friend Bent me a sample bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and after that I bought and took a 50 cent bottle; and now I can say that I am entirely cured. I cannot be thankful enough to you for this great Remedy, and recommend it to all suffering veter ans. If in doubt write to me. Yours gratefully, Henry Steinberger, Allen town, Pa.

Brongrht Good Lnclc. The black cat superstition certainly has a strong hold. A strang-e black cat came to the residence of a Troy fam ily during the present year, and it was occasionally fed by the kicl-fci ;:rted woman of the house. The eat kept coming', says the Troy Press, and in sisted upon domesticating itself, and the woman laughingly remarked to her friends that it was a sign of good luck. But she had no children, and did not want to be troubled with a cat. She told her husband that he must get rid of it. They disliked to kill the cat, and finally decided to take it into the country and drop it. Iate one afternoon, they put the cat in a bag and drove about five miles, when they untied the bag and freed the cat, after which they returned rap idly. The woman died inside of half an hour after reaching home, an ac cident befalling her. If it be good luck for a black cat to come to one's house, it surely must signify poor luck to take or drive it away. The woman was familiar with the omen, as she had repeatedly re ferred to it, but probably never stopped to consider that such a sign would imply evil consequences if the harbin ger of good was turned away. At all events, she took the black cat away, and was killed almost immediately thereafter. While we take no stock whatever in this popular superstition, we know the facts to be as stated. A few days after the funeral the cat came back. HE WAS REAL NICE. Thia Telegraph Clerk, ana She Will Patronize Him Exclusively. She sailed into the telegraph office nd rapped on the receiving clerk's win dow. The receiving clerk remem bered that she had been there about ten minutes before as he came forward to meet her. He wondered what she wanted this time, says the Cincinnati JlnnniTiii I "Oh," she said, "let me have that tel egram I wrote just now. I forgot some thing very important. I wanted to un derscore the words 'perfectly lovely' in acknowledging the receipt of that bracelet. Will it cost anything extra?" "No, ma'am," said the clerk, as he handed her the message. The young lady drew two heavy lines beneath the words and said: "It's awfully good of you to let me do that. It will please Charliesomuch." "Don't mention it," said the clerk. "If you would like, I will put a few drops of nice violet extract on the tele gram at the same rates." "Oh, thank you, sir. You don't know how much I would appreciate it. I'm going to send all my telegrams through this office, j'ou are so obliging." And the smile she gave him would have done anyone good to have seen, with the possible exception of Charlie. What use is therein eating when food does you no good in fact, when it does you more harm than good, for such is the case if it is not digested? If yon have a loathing for food there is no use of forcing it down, tor it will not be digested. You must restore the digestive organs to their natural strength and cause the food to be digested, when an appetite will come, and with it a re lish for food. The tired, languid feeling will give place to vigor and energy ; then you will put flesh on your bones and become strong. The Shaker Digestive Cordial as made by the Mount Lebanon Shakers contains food already digested and is a digester of foods as well. Its action is prompt and its effects permanent.
