S[GNS OF R.\IN. Some people desire a weather calendar in thair almanacs, fully believing, no doubt, that the treather mar be foretold by the phases of tbe moan. As far belter, however, than any prognostications of such a kind, we copy the fallowing, said to hare been composed by Dr. Jemner, as an excase for not accepting tbe inritation of a friend to make an excursion with iun:
Tbe hollow winds begin to blow. The clouds look black, the grass is low; "1 he soot falls down, ihe ataniols s'esp. And spiders front t^eir cobwebs peep, Lb.i nigbl lh« aim went pale lo bed, The moon'm balonhidher head; Tbe bo^/ing shepherd heave, a sigh, For. let a rainliow span's thc .ky.

pence an hour relaxed her features at once.— LiUie.Peggy sal knitting a stocking very dili¬ gently, with a rod lying on the table beside her. She looked up with timid wistfulness, as if the prospect of any change was like a release frora prison. When she hoard consent given, a bright color flushed heroheeks. She was evidenlly of an improsisiblo tempera¬ ment, forgood or evil. "Nowmind and be¬ have yourself," said Aunt Hetty; "and see that you keep at work the whole time. If I hear one word of complaint, you know what you'll get when you come horae." The rose- color subsided from Peggy's pale face, and she answered, "Yes ma'am," very meekly.
In the neighbor's house all went quite oth¬ erwise. No switch lay on the lable, and in¬ stead of, " mind Jio w yon do that. If you don't I'll punish you," she heard the gentle word.^, "'There dear, see how carefully you can carry tbat up stairs. Why. what a nice handy little: girl you are!" UnJer this enli¬ vening influence, Peggy worked like a bee.— Aunt Hetty vras always in the habit of say¬ ing, " Stop your noise, and mind your work." But the new friehd patted her on the head, and said, " What a pleasant voice ¦ the little girl has. It is like the birds in the field. By and by, you shall hear my music-box." This opened wide the windows of the poor liitle sniU-up heart, eo that the sunshine coulil stream in, and the birds fly in and out, carol¬ ling. The happy child tuned up like a lark, as she tripped iFghtly up and down stairs, on rarious household errands. But though she took heed to observe ail the directions given her, her head was all the time filled with con¬ jectures what sort of a thing a music-box might be. She. was a little afraid lhe kind la¬ dy would forget tp show it to her. She kept at wbrk, however, and asked no cjUeBlibns; she only looked very curiously at -everything that resembled a box. Al last, Mrs. Pair- weather said, " I think your litlle feel ttlUsl be tired, by this time. We will reot awhile, and eat some gingerbread." The child took the olTered cake, with an bumble little eoUi-tery, and carefully held ont her aptisa to prevent any crumbs from falling Sn'the floor." But suddenly the apron dropped, and the crumbs were all slrewcd about. "Is that a litlle bird V she exclaimed eagerly. " Where is he 1 Is he in the room ?" The new friend smiled, and told her that was the musio-box; and after awhile she opened it and explained what made the sounds. Then she took out a pile of books from one of the baskets of goods, and told Peggy she might look at the picture.i, till she called her. The little girl stepped forward esigcrly. to take them, and then drew back, as if afraid, " VVhat is the inatter'?" asked Mrs. Fairwealher: "1 am very willing to trusl you with the books.. I keep them on purpose to amuse chiUren.''— Peggy looked down with her finger on her lip, and answered, in a coiislraineil Voice, " Aiint Turnpenny won't like il if I play." Don'l trouble yourself aboul that. I will make it all right with Aunt Hetty," replied the friend openly. Thus assured, she gave herself up to the full enjoyment of the picture books; and wben she was summoned lo her work, she obeyed with a cheerful alacrity that would have astonished her "stern relative.— When the labors of the day were concluded, iVfrs. Fairwealher accompanied' her home, paid for all the hours she had been absent, and warmly praised het docility and diligence. " [t is lucky tot her that she behaved so well." replied Aunt Hetty; "If I had heard aiiy complaint, 1 should hare given her a whip¬ ping, and sent her to bed without her supper."
Poor little Peggy went to sleep that night with a lighter heart than ahe had ever felt, since she had been an orphan. Her first thought in the morning was whether the new neighbor would want her service again du¬ ring the day. Her desire that it should be so soon became obvious to Aunt Hetty, and exci¬ ted an undefined jealousy and dislike of a per¬ son who so easily made herself beloVeu.— Wilhout exactly acknowledging lo herself what were her own motives, she ordered Peg¬ gy to gather all the sweepings of the kitchen and court into a small pile, and leave it on the frontier line of her neighbor's premises.

" So you are going to live in the s.ime build- .ing with Hetty Turnpenny," said Mrs. Lane to31r(. Fairwealher, " You will find nobody to envy .you. If her temper does not prove too much even for your good-nature, it will surprise all who know her. We lived there a -year, and that is as long as any body ever tried it." .
•'Poor Hetty!" replied Mrs. Fairwealher. "She has had much to.hanlen her. Hef mothsr died too early for her lo remember; thee father was very severe with her; and the only lover she ever had, borrowed the savings .of her,years of toil, and spent them in dissi¬ pation. But Hetty, notwithstanding her sharp features, and sharper words, certainly has a kind heart. In the midst of her greatest pov- -ertyimkny were the stockings sho knit, and the warm waistcoats she made for the poor, jdraot^alo^er, wbom she had too much goo4 aeose^to.marry. Then you know she feeds 'kni clothfei her brother's orphan child."
•-'^ If TOU call it feeding and clothing," re¬ plied .iin. Lane. " The poor child looks cold, ,and pinched, and frightened all tke time, as if '•he,were chased by the East wind. I used .to lellMissTurnpenny she.oughl to beasham- of herself, to keep the poor lilllc thing at ¦work all the time, withoul one minuie to play. -If iHbjIdbs bul look al the cat, as it runs by tliB.'.windovr, Aunt Hetty gives her a rap over ;the kiiuckle's. I used to tell her she would make the girl just such another sour old crab «« herself.'^
'.'That must have been rery improving to her diE^sitioo," replied Mrs. Fairwealher, 'with » g'ood-b'uihored smile. " But in justice to poor Atint Hetty, you ought to remember that' she had jiist such a cheerless childhood lu^lf.' Flowflrs grow where there is siih- •binK."..
, , '5:1 kuQW you think everybody ougthto live in the. sunshine," rejompd Mrs. Lane;. " and il inust' be ixmfessed that yoii carry it with you wEereVer ybu go. If Miss Turnpenny hht a !)ekrt,'I dare raiy yon will find it out, though I oerer could, and I never heard of any one else Ihal could. All the families within hear¬ ing,of her tongue call her the neighbor-in-
Certainly the prospect was nol very encour- •i[ing; fnr. the bouse Mrs. Fairwealher pro¬ posed to occupy, was not only uuder the same ropf with Miss Turnpenny, bul the buihlings had ^bne eommon yard in the rear, and one cofiiinim" Biace for a garden in fruht. The •very first day she took jxissession of hef new hsbitstion.she called on the neighbor-in-!aw. Aiuit Hetty had tkken the precaution to extin-^ gd^'^lhe fire, lest the new neighbor should tfSintKQt ivaler. before her own wood.and,coal arriV^.' Her hrst salutation was, "If you Trant any cold water, there's a pump across the street; I don't like to have my house slop- peifklloTer."
' I'tam glad you are sn tidy, neighbor Tum- penniv," replied Mr?. Fairwealher; " It is ex- ttemely pleaaant to ha^-e neat neighbors. I ifrilftry to keep everything as brighl asa'new firBtamt-piece, for I see that will please you. I .caroa in Merely to say-good morning, and.to •(Jt'lf yoa.ponW,8pare little Pegcyio runup and.Josr4'i'»¥''f-''- *'"' '°®> while I am geltiiig ray f)jfn'l''f^'¦•" °"^^''- ^ will pay her six- pehiB«("«uj"1»fagi».

Peggy ventured to ask timidly whether th. wind would aot blow it about, and she receiv¬ ed a box on the ettt for her iraperfinence. It ellanoed that Mrs. Fairwealher, quile unin¬ tentionally, heard the words and the blow. She gave Aunt Hetty's anger tirae enough lo uool, then stepped out into the court, and after arrangiug divers liltie raatters, she called aloud to her domestic, " Sally, how came you to leave this pile of dirt here? Didn't I tell you Mias Turnpenny was very neat 1 Pray make haste and sweep it Up. 1 would'nt have her see it on any account. I toltl her I would try to keep everything nice about the premises. She is so particular herself, and it is a comfort to have tidy neighbors.'' The girl who had been previously instructed, smil¬ ed as she came out with brush and dnst-pan, and swept ijuietly away the pile, that was in¬ tended as a declaration ol frontier war. But another source of annoyance presented itself, which could nol be quite so easily ilisposed of. Aunt Hetty had a cat, a lean scraggy animal, thai looked as if she were often kicked and seldom fed; and Mrs. Fairwealher had a fat, frisky little dog, always ready for a caper. He took a distale to poor poveity-stricken Tab the firsl time he saw her, and no coaxing could induce him to alter his opinion. His name was Pink, but h-i vat anything but a pink of behaviour in his neighborly relations. Poor Tab could never set foot out of doors withoul bemg saluted wiih a growl, and a short sharp batk, ihat frightened her out of her senses, and made. her ' nui into the honse, with her fur all on end. If she even ventured lo doze a little on her own door ptep, the enemy was on the watch, and the moment, her eyes clos¬ ed, he woulil wake bel with a bark and a box on the ear, and off he wonld run. Aunl Het¬ ty vowed she would scald him. It was a burning shame, she said, for folks to keep dogs to worry their neighbor's oats. Mrs. Fair- weather inviled Tabby lo dine, and made mnch of her, and patiently endeavored lo teach her dog to eat Irom the same plate. But Pink sturdily resolved he wouldbe scalded first; that he would. He could uot have been more firm in hia opposition, if he and Tab had be¬ longed, to tiinereut sects in Christianity.— Wmle his mistress was patting Tab ou the head and reasoning the point with him, he woiild at times manifest a degree of indiJBer- ence, amountuig to loletation; bul the mo¬ ment he was left to his own free will, he would give the inrited guest ia hearty cufi with hjs paw, and send her home spitting like a small steam engine. Aunl Hetty considered ither own peculiar pririlege lo cuff the poor animal, and il was too much for her patience to see Pink underlake to assist in making Tab un fiappy. On one of these occasions, she rushed intoher neighbor's apartments, and faced Mrs. Fairwealher, wilh one hand resting on her hip, andthe forefinger of the other making very wrathful gesticulations. "I tell you what, madam, I wonl put up with such Ireal¬ menl much longer," said she; "I'll poison ihat dog; you'U see if I dont; and l-shant wait long, either, I can tell you. What you keep such an impudent little beast for, Idon't know, without you do it on purpose to plague your neighbors."
"I am really sorry he behaves so " replied Mrs. Fairwealher, liiildly. " Poor Tab I" - "PoorTab!"' screamed Mrs. Turnpenny; "What do you mean by calling him poor'? Do you mean to fling it up to me that mv cal don't have enough to eat 1'^
" I did not think of such a thing," replied Mrs. Fairwealher. "I called her poor Tab, because Pink plagues heso that she has no peace of ber lile. I agree wilh you; neighbor Turnpenny: it is «o<right to keep a dog that disturbs the neighborhood. 1 am attached lo poor lilile Pink, because he belongs lo my son, who has gone lo sea, I was in hopes he would Bopu leave ofi' iiuarreling with the cat; but if he wont be neighborly, 1 will send him out'ih thii country lo board. Sally, wiU jron bfiiig me'one of the pies we baked this"morn¬ ing?- .1 shouhl like to havc Miss Tumnemv taste of them."
The crabbed' neighbor was helped abun¬ dantly, and while she was eating the pie, the friendly matron edged in many a kind word concerning litlle PeggJ') whom she pmiscd as j a remarkably capable industrious child.
" I am glad you find her so," rejoined Aunt Hetty: '• I should get precious httle work out of her, if Ididn'l.keep a switch in sight,"
"I manage children prelty much as lhe man did the donkey,'' replied Mrs. Fairwealh¬ er. "Not an inch would the poor beast stirj for all hia master's beating and Ihumpillg.— But a neighbor tied some flesh lUtnlps to a slick, and fastened them so ihat^they swung directly before Ihe donkey's nose, and off he set on a brisk trot, in hopes of overtaking them."
Aunt Hetty, wilhout observing how very closely the comparison applied lo her own management of Peggy, said, " That will do very well for folks that have plenty of turnips to spare."
" For the mailer of that, answered Mrs. Fairwealher, " whips cost somelhing, as well as turnips: and since one makes the donkey stand still, and the other makes him trot, it is easy to decide wbich is the most economical. But neighbor Turnpenny, since you like my pies so well pray take one home with you.- I am afraid they will mould before We can eal them up."
Aunt Hetty had rOttte ill fbr a qUartel, and she was astonished to Hudj.herseit going out wilh a pie. " Well, Mrs. Fairwealher," said she, " ji)Ui arc a neighbor. I thank yoU a thousand times." When she l-eached hei own donr, she hesitated fdr ftll Ilistant, then turned back, pie iu hand, to say, "Neighbor Fairwealher, you needn't trouble yOUrself about sending Pink a*ay. tl'g natuial you should Uke tfie lilile WealUre, seeing he be¬ longs to yeut son. I'll try to keep "tab iri doors, and perhaps after awhile Ittey will agree.better."
" I hope ^llley will,'* replied the friendly matron¦ "We will try Ihem awhile longer, andif they persist in qnaneling I will send the dog into the couniry." Pink-, who was sleeping in a chair, Bltetched hihiself and gaped. His kind mistress patted hiill on the head, " Ah yott foolish little beast,"' said she, " Wh.it's the use of plageing poor 'Tab."
" Well, 1 do say,'' observed Sally, smiling, "you are a master woman fot stopping a.quar- rel."
" I learned a good lesDon Vrlien I was a lit¬ tle gitlj" rejoined Mrs. Fairwealher. "One troBly iBorniiig, I was looking out of the win¬ dow into my father's barn-yard, whet-e itood many cows, oxen, andhor»e»i willtiHglo drink. It was one of those WM anapnine ihornings, when a.slight thing itri'lates bolH man and beast, 'fhe catUe all Sfooil VfcirV aiiU -lud meek, til! 6iie bf the tia*5 attempted to turn roUild. In niaking the attempt, she happened to hit her next neighbor; w.liereupon, the neighbor kicked and hit another. In five min¬ utes, the whole herd were kiekinft And tidok- ing each other, with al fUry. My moiher laughed; and said ' Sec what comes of kicking when you're hil. Just so I've seen one cross word set a whole family by the earS; Some frosty morning.' Afterward, if lily brothers or roy«elf were a little irritable, ehe would say,'Take care, children. Kemembrr how the fight in the barn-yard began. Nevergive a kick fora hit, andyou will save yourself j and others a deal of trouble;*''
That same aftelnooU, lhe sUnshiliy dame stepped into Aunt Hetty ft fboms,"where she found Pesgy Sewing, as usual, wilh the eter¬ nal swilcll onthe table beside her. "I am obliged to go lo HarleiU, On biiBinefes,'' said she: " I feel rather lonely wilhout company, and I always like to have a child with me. If you will oblige me by letting Peggy go, I will pay her fare in the omtiibus."
"She has her spelling teS.son to get before night," replietl Aiint Hetty. " 1 don't approve of young folks going a pleasuring, and neg¬ lecting their education.''
"Neither do I.'' rejoined her neighbor; " but I think there is a greal deal bf education that is not found ih books. The fresh, air will ttiihe Pegsy grow stout and aclive. I prophesy that she will do greal credil lo your bringing up." The sugared vvords, and the remembrance ofthe sugared pie, touched the soft place in Mrs. Turnpenny's heart and she told the astonished Peggy that she might go and put ou her beat giiwn and bonnel. T'ne poor child be^an to think that this new neigh¬ bor was certainly one of the good faries she read about m the picture" books. The excur- ,sion was enjoyed as only a city child can enjoy lhe country. The world seems such a pleas¬ ant place, when the fetters are off, and Nature folds the yonng heart lovingly on her bosom ! A llnck of real birds and two living butter¬ flies pul the little orphan in a perfect ecstacy. She ran and skipped. One could see that ."ihe might be graceful, if she were only free. She pointed to the fields corered with dandelions, and saitl, " See, how pretty 1 It looks as if the stars had come down to lie on the grass." Ah, our litlle stinted Peggy has poetry in her, though Anni Hetty nercr fonnd it out. Erery hnman soul has the germ of some flowers within, and they would open, if they conld only find sunshine and free air lo expand in.
Mrs. Fairwealher was a practical philoso¬ pher, in her own small way. She observed that Miss Turnpenny really liked a pleas¬ ant tune; anil whan Winter came, she tried to persuade her that singing would be excel¬ lent for Peggy's lungs, and perhaps keep her from going into a consnmplion.
Lane. ''Nobody but yon would haVe under'' taken lo thaw out Aunt Hetty's heart;"
" That is probably the leaSon frhy it was never thawed," rejoined - ber friend. "1 al¬ ways told you that not haring enoijgh of sun¬ shine was what ailed the world. Make peo¬ ple happy, and there will not be half the quar¬ reling, ot a tenth part of the wickedness there ia."
Frora this gospel of joy p'reactied and prac- tisedj nobody derived so much benefil aS lit¬ tle Peggy. Mer natUle, which was faet grotv¬ ing crooked and knotty, under the malign in¬ fluence of constraint and fear,- stiaightened up, budded and blossomed, in the genial al- mo.s;)here of cheerful kindness.
Her affections and faculties were kepl in such pleasant exercise, that constant light- aess of hearl made her almost hanilsdme.— The young music-teacher ihoughl hei more than almosi handsome^ for her affectionate soul shone raore beamingly on him than on others; and love makes all things beautiful.
When the orphan removed to her pleasant liltie cottage on her wedding-day, she threw her arms round the blessed missionary of sunshine, and said, "Ah, thoU dear good AUnt, il is thou who hast made my life Fairwealher."

" My nephew, James Fairwealher, keeps a singing school,'' said she; and he says he
< to havc Miss Tumpe'nny
will teach her'gratis. You need not feel nn¬ der greal obligation; for her voice will lead the whole school, and her ear is so quick, it will be no trouble at all to teach her. Per¬ haps you woulil go with us sometimes, neigh¬ bor Turnpenny? Itis very pleasant to hear the children's voices." . The cordage of Aunt Hetty's mouth relaxed into a smile. She accepted the invitation, and was so much pleased, that they went eve¬ ry Sunday evenuig. The simple tones, and the sweet young voices, fell like dew on her driad-up heart, and greatly aided the gennine influence of her neighbor's example. The rod silently disappeared from the table. If Peggy was disposed to be idle, il was only ne¬ cessary to say, "When you have finished your work, you may go and ask wheiher Mrs. Fairwealher wants any errands done." Bless me, how the fingers flew.! Aunt Hetty had learned to use turnips instead of fhe cudgel.
When Spring came, Mrs. Fairwealher busi¬ ed herself with planling roses and vines.— Mrs. Turnpenny readily, consented that Peg¬ gy should help her; and even refused lo take pay from such a good neighbor. Bul she maintained her own opinion that il vras a mere waste of time to cultirate flowers.— The cheerful philosopher never disputed the point; but she would somelimes say, " I have no room to planl this rose-bush. Neighbor Turnpenny, would you be billing to lel me set il on your side of lhe yard 1 II vvill take rery little room and will neeil no care.'' At an¬ other lime she would say, " well, really my ground is too full. Here-is a root pf lady's- delight.. How bright aod pert il looks. Il seems a pity td throw it away. Ifyou are willing, I will let Peggy plant il in what she calls her garden. It wi I grow of itself, wilh¬ out any care, and scatter seeds, that wilf come up and blos.som inall the chinksof the bricks. I love it. It is such a brighl good natured thing." Thus by degrees the crabbed maid¬ en fonnd herself surrounded by flowers; and she even declared of herown acicord that they did look pretty.  "
One day, when Mrs. Lane called.upon Mrs. Fairwealher, she found the old weed grown yard bright and blooming. Tab, quite lat and sleek, was asleep in the sunshine, with her paw on Pink's neck, and liltie Peg¬ gy was singing al her work as blithe asa bird.
"How cheerful you look here,.", said Mrs. Lane," and so you have teally taken the house for another year. Pray how do you manage to get on with ourneighbor-in-laW?*'

In cUiing herbs as all acquainted with llle sUbject admit, the most pMper time for-cutting is when they are in full bloom. and it is also admitted that ihey should be cured in the shade, becaiiSCj if e.xposed to the rtitire dihebl iiiHUetiee df the sun and air, some of tiieir valuable properties would be evaporated:

Plants at the time of flowering, contain starch, gum and sugar; all of which are knowii tbnbtiiish anitnaH.

But it may be said that the bbttiprisilidn df woody fibre, statch and gtiihj.are nedrly tlle same; Ad¬ mitted, but this does not prove that animals are able to extracl an equal amount of nour¬ ishment from each.

In somejatts of the coUntty, animals are ac¬ tually fatleilid tor market on hay alone.— This may sound strange to those who feed their stock only with clover and timothy which has gone lo seed; for we presume their stock was never thus fattened. But where this object is attainedj the grass is cut when it is qUito giefen. (nbt piiBl blobhij and made and pieservetl with great care. It is true there are some kinds of grasses,—as the "spire grass," or Kentucky blue grass," {Poa pralensis) which make but little bulk in seed stalks, the chief growth consisting of, leaves which spring from the rool. The greatesi value in fodder would be obtained in such ca¬ ses by allowing the crop lo grow till it had acquired its greatest bulk. This remark how¬ ever by no means applies to clover, timothy or the grasses usually cultivated for hay.
In raaking hay, we would e.vpose it to the sun and air no more than is required to effecl its-preservation, for the same reason that is above given in reference to curing herbs.— Clover can be cured—indeed it is more con¬ veniently cured—with bul little e.vposure to lhe sun. If it is nol wet, and is fairly wilted, it raay be put with forks, inlo cocks, which will weigh, when dry, about fifly pounds each and will effectually cure. Timothy, also, raay be cured in the same manner. The finer grasses, when thrown into a body, pack more closely and affo"rd less space for the air; con¬ sequently they require to be more thinly spread in making.
Excepting wilh clover, which wc never spread out of swath, our praclice has been to spread out the swaths as evenly as possible, it the burden is stout, as soon as the dew is oft'; in the afternoon, rake and cock it before the dew falls. We prefer putting it in cocks, even if it ia no mote than wilted, because the sweating it will there undergo in the course of twelve hours, wi^ll much facilitate the ma¬ king, and if the grass is coarse and hard, it will lender it much more soft. Besides, hay that has been well sweated in cock, is not lia¬ ble to ferment in the stack or mow.
Wheiher the hay whioh was mowed and put in cocks on the first day will make so that It will do lo go to the bain.on the second day, depends of course on its condition and the state of lhe weaiher. If all appearances in¬ dicate that the hay can be made sufficiently on the second day, (and repeated observations only can determine the degree of dryness which is required.) open the cocks and shake he hay out lighlly, thoroughly breaking all 'the locks with the fork- But il should not lie spread but later than thtee or font o'clook in the afternoon but should be put up again, or if dry enough, put in the barn by this time; lest it contract moisture. If from the condi¬ tion of the hay or the appearances of the weather, there is a probability that the hay cannol fae made enough ia one day, let it re¬ main undisturbed iill the weather is favor¬ able.
There are one or two olher considerations in favor of early cutting which we omitled to notice, ll is admitted by physiologist that plants exhaust both their own energies and the soil, more in forming seed, than in the whole preceding portion of their growth. Thns when grass is suffered.to ripen, it gives but little after-growth, and from the exhaustion mentioned, the sward more quickly dies out. —Culfitiofer.

TJR.   JAYNE.—Dear   Sir, I   feeS
•^-^ bound-to tbe afflicted to give publicity I9 the extraordinary effeot. ofyour valuable Dedlr cine, •
I have suffered for .everal yeor. pa.i wilh Liv. er Complaint, ond the train of disease, wbich fol low—a complele prostration of thc .y.tem—.0 thai it wa. with greal difficulty 1 could walk, and al times I was confined to ray room. To add to ray misery, a Scrofulous affection appeared in my throat, wilh Rlieumatism inmy arms, so thatl could nol raise my right arm to my head. In the hottest weather my hands and feet would ache tvith cold, and prespiration had alraosi ceased. I now became-offlcted with a dry hoarso 'cough, and gave np oil hopes of ever getting well. I had nighl sweat, and gol little or no sleep, wiih frightlul dream and morbid headache. 1 seera.d tu be bordering on INSANITY, and waa denied all otudy or raentol exsrcira. 1 could not read a amall poragroph in a new.poper wilhoul great dif¬ ficulty. 1 hod great aoreness in ray ilomach, which caused il tu swell so much that 1 wa. una¬ ble to lie down, or even to recline, bul hod to be propped np in a chair.
I had the advice of .ome eminent physician, and tried nearly all the remedies usod in sucb ca- ava but continued 10 grow worse, and it ap. peared as though a .peedy dissolulion was taking place.
Afler taking your Alterative and Pills for threo week, there wa. a decided change for the better, so that when I called upoa you, you .aid thai I would get well, and ihat your ALTERATIVE would cure rae efieclually. With no hope, how¬ ever,of getting well, 1 .till coniinued to take your Alterative, until I had taken the fonrih boltle, when there wa. a .udden change in my whole .y.tem, as though I hod got tid of wime great bur then, and could draw my breath a. usual. My oeive. gradually became .Irong, and ray appelile returned.
It ba. been ahuut four month, .ince I commen¬ ced taking your Medicine, and al ihia lime near- ¦ ly every vestage of disease is eradicated from my ^ sy.iem,   I am as active and neorly a. strong a. at * any period of my life.     1 hove nuw gained nine |.ound. in twu monihs.
I hove good reason to believe that the use of your valuable Medicine., by lhe help of God, has .aved me from a piemai ore grave.
