Head the Death Koil "Which the bills of mortality of any large city may be fitly designated, and you will find that renal and vesical maladies, that is to say, those that ytlect the kidneys or bladder, have a remarkable prominence we had al most said preponderance. Bright's disease and diabetes in the chronic stage are rarely curea, and gravel, ca tarri'h of the bladder and enuresis, slay many. Yet at the ounset, when the trouble merely amounts to inact ivity of the organs involved, the dan ger may be nullified by that pleasant renal tonic and diuretic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which imparts the requisite amount of tone to the or gans, without over-exciting them, and the use of which is convenient, and no elaborate preparation. Dyspepsia, a ususl concomitant of renal com plaints, and debility, which they in variably produce, are remedied by it. So also are constipation, malarial rheumatic and nervous aiiments- The Ounce ol Prevention. 1"he satis'action of feeling safe from catching any disease from drinking water, froiu impure air, from a sick pr-rrson, from contact with foul cloth ing, infection or contagion from any source, is complete and all anxiety allayed by the use of Darbys Prophy lactic Fluid.

Her conversation was particular!' bright and flowing i ne ladv alter being ottered a seat stated that she desired to make arrangements for the burial of a ladv friend who was not vet dead, but woo was expected to die. She finally asked to lie allowed to see some samples and was accommo- i.i i . 1 . , . . : uaieu. uurinji ue couvertauoii she said : "How would you like to y mer ; You are not dead," remarked Mr. Spenee, with surprise. "Yes, I am; but vou seel can talk. The docters can do nothing for me, and 1 have been thinking of this in a serinn v av for several months." She finally requested to measured live towx and one-half inches, or at least would take that size -asket. While . walking around she said she determined to placed in a casket and buried. Her family has a private lot in one of the prominent cemeteries, but she . . 1 - am not care to ouneu witn ai y ceremony, and more particularly desired a private interment, with no one as a witness but the under taker and his assistants, sdie wanted no shroud or flowers, and was willing to pay any undertaker $500 who would carry out her wishes. . Mr. Spence showed her a me tallic casket -which seemed to strike her fancy. Standing alongside of the heavy receptrcle, she, in a pleasant way, said it was just her size. She finally asked Mr. Spence now long she would have to re main in the casket before death, and he told her it would take about five hours. This seemed out a moment to her, and she jaid she w ould be willing to stand the imprisonment providing a guaranty would be given that death would come in this time. The lady was anxious for the per formance to take place to-morrow, and was told to retnrn at 3 o'clock vesterday afternoon, when the final arrangements would be made. In the meao time Mr. Spence in formed a policeman, who was on landtosee if he could recognize her. She came as promised, and again expressed a strong desire to infill her part of the contract. Furthermore, sheoffered $150,then f200. She also said she had offered an undertaker in New York w to do the job. The officer recognized the lady as 1 former resident of East Baltimore street and seemed to think she w?s lemented. Mr. Evans stated that he did not notice anything strange about tlie woman's actions, and she appeared yen' rational. She gave her name and residence to Mr. Evans, who said he would write to her relatives, as the lady -had promised faithfully to be 011 hand to-morrow. After thanking him for his kindness and willing ness to gratify her wishes, she left and went up Baltimore street.
