Merit Alone Could Have Made These Remedies so Widely known and Universally Indorsed by the People. MONTICELLO, Aroostook Co., Me. Oct. 16, 1892. I wish to tell you What your great med- icine Kickapoo In- clan Sagwa, has done for me and my family. My wife was very sick and had been failing fora long time, and her @ld family yuywician said ghe could not tive. We tried another doctor, and he told the same story, said she could not live three months. She John S. White. had been confined to her bed for almost two years and was now almost bed- fast. The doctor said she had Cone sumption complicatet with Heart Dise ease °nd Liver Trouble, and we were about discouraged. I then heard ef your remedy and told my wife about it, She decided to try it, and before she had taken half a bottle she felt better. When she had taken two bottles she was gaining fast, and before the third bottle was fin. | ished she completely reeevered her health, ; and my trouble was | attacked with the | timer had acold I was | and have remained well ever since. | | | then | and has been a well woman ever since, and her cure isa wonder to all, Some time after this I was taken sick pronounced Dys- pepsia by a physi- cian who relieved me some, but did notcure me. My wife ad- vised me to try Sagwa. I did so and was cured, Soon after that I was iin Crippe and could not ta Mrs. Joun 3. White. aes 2. get rid. of it. Every completsly used up, At my wife's sug: gestion I tried Kickapoo Indian Sag- wa again, and after using less than two bottles I considered myself entirely well I think I can say that Sagwa is the best remedy that a family can have. In case of Colds there is nothing bet- ter that I know of than taking a good dose before going to bed, and my wife says she would not think of keeping heuse without! a bottle of Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. She says it gaved her life with the help o! Providence, and I can say that under the | hand of Almighty Cod I owe my life to the wonderful medicine of all medicines the great gift of nature, Kickapoo In dian Sagwa, and all the world should know of its intrinsic worth. Its value as a family remedy is beyond comparison. ~ JOHN 8. WHITE.

A weak monsoou crop. The cool season, November to January, is followed by the terrible hot season, during which never a drop of rain can be looked for. The River Me- nam—‘‘Mother of Water”—polluted by every conceivable and inconceivable inatter, the rotten corpses of men and carcasses of beasts, is very iow; it is, moreover, tidal at Bangkok, and its pestilential waters, flotsam, are driven back every high tide by the waters of the sea and ren- dered dangerously brackish The stream is the color of soup. Fill the jar and the water with a piece of alum, and in ten minutes it wil beas clear as the purest spring water ; all its suspended matter will have sunk to the bottom into a thick gray stratum. But woe io the stranger mad enough to taste the glassy poison! Let him first say his prayers and then ‘“‘good-by.” If it be considered that the natives drink this fetid liquid without any such precautions as even the clearing alum it may be imagined whata cholera outbre: means, The vultures and pariahs cannot devour the bodies fast enough ; the river cannot carry thein down against thé tide, A truly terrifying picture is that of an eastern city in a cholera epidemic.

Ia the Human Body, An interesting exhibit at the National Museum shows the physical ingredients which go to make up the average man weighing 154 pounds. A large glass jar holds the ninety-six pounds of pure water which his body contains, In other receptacles are three pounds of white of g, & little less than ten pounds of pure giue—without which it would be impos- sible to keep body and soul together— 48} pounds of fat, 8} pounds of phos- hate of lime, 1 pound of carbonate of ime, 2 ounces of sugar and starch, 7 ounces of fluoride of calcium, 6 ounces of phosphate of magnesia, and a little oxdinuty table salt. Divided up into his primary chemical elements the same man | is found to contain 97 pounds ef oxygen | —enough to take up, under ordinary | atmospheric pressure, the space of | a room 10 feet long, 10 feet wide | and 10 feet high. His body also holds 15 pounds of hydrogen, which, under the same conditions, would occupy somewhat more than two such rooms as that described. To these must be added 3 pounds and 13 ounces of nitrogen. The carbon in the corpus of the in- foot cube of coal. It ought to be a | diamond of the same size, because the stone is pure carbon, but the National Museum has not such a one in its session. A row of bottles contain the other elements going to make up the man. are 4 ounces of chlorine, 84 ounces of fluorine, 8 ounces of phos- phorus, 3} ounces of brimstone, 2} ounces of sodium, 24 ounces of potassium, one- tenth of an ounce of iron, 2 ounces of magnesium and 3 pounds and 13 ounces of calcium. Calcium, at present market rates is worth $300 an ounce, so that the amount of it contained in an ordinary human body has a money value of $18,300.
