Experience of a Druggist.

A druggist has singular calls. One Danbury dealer recerved a written re- quest from a customer for “ one aueclox- eses poros Plaster.” Another had a eall for a battle of “Stuff a notice. After seriously impairing the use of one eye, and endangering the equilibri- um of his brain in an effort te? divine the article he was obliged to give up the sale, and fall back as gracefully as possible on the well-established axiom,

J. K. Champan, of Sandwich, pub- lishes a statement showing his success in. keeping poultry the past year. From forty fowl he had 5,632 eggs, which brought $99.11; fowl marketed and on hand, in excess of commence- ment.of the year, $45.29; making net income $144.10. Expenses for wheat, corn, ete., $97.93, making a net gain of $46.67,—or something over $1.00 for each tow].

Joseph Ramsey of North Egremont has diseovered a rule for guessing the weight-of hogs. He says: “ Multiply the length in inches from the point of the shoulder to the root of the tail, by the number of inches girth just back of the shoulder, and reduce the preduet to square feet. Multiply the result by 22. the number of pounds weight of one square foot of pork. The product} will give nearly the exact dressed | weight.’ By this rule he lately guess- | ed within a half pound of a hog dressing 970 pounds.

The Greatest Medical Disecvery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has becn a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been eaused by outward application as the present. It is an und ted fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

DR. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and uire to be worn continually to effezt acure; but with these it is entirely dif-

Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as @ medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan-

ges in a porous plaster have been discovered. eing, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by DR. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM PoROvcs PLASrsrRs, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment.
