XiFThe following recoipe for in
temperance has been sold all the way
from SIOO to SSOO, as a great secret.
It is undoubtedly good and will in
many cases effect a perfect euro.—
Take sulphate of iron four grains ;
pepperment water, eleven drachms ;
spirit of nutmeg, one drachm ; twice
a day. This preparation acts as a
tonic and a stimulant, and so par
tially supplies the place of the accus
tomed liquor, and prevents that ab
solute physical and moral prostration
that follows a sudden breaking oil
from the use of stimulating drinks.—
It is to bo taken in quantities equal
to an ordinary dram, and as often as
the desire for drams return.
Home Mani iacti rks. —There is a
great deal of truth in the following
from an exchange, and wc commend
it to the attention of those who tin
not believe in homo industry:
It is too much tho habit of people
to look with disrespect or distrust
upon homo products, and to cherish
the idea that nothing can be good or
reliable that has not metropolitan
endorsement. No town or village
can prosper unless tho business men,
wo do not mean merenants only, but.
mechanics and manufacturers of all
kinds, arc sustained. Every indus
trious mechanic is a blessing to tho
town. Every manufacturing estab
lishment, however humble, is a pub
lie benefit. Every chair, table, bed
stead, bureau, wheelbarrow, harness,
pair of boots, or other article made
at home, keeps money from going
abroad, and to just that extent helps
the town generally.
