Disesaes of the Cheat, Throat, Liver.Heart, and Blood, and their Accom-panying Symptoms.Dr. F. B. Brewer, who has made

regular visits for years, has made it abusiness of a life time to investigateand study. He has proved that these jdiseases even in the stages considered |beyond the ordi'iry methods of treat- jment, can by a i jtional and mild means ibe retarded, arrested or permanently 1cured. Few physicians have the op-portunity that Dr. Brewer has had ininvestigating and examining the variousforms of this class of diseases. Thefact that Dr. F, M. Brewer has beenassociated with him in all his workgives him the same knowledge ofsevere cases and enables him to treatsuccessfully. You can consult Dr. F.M. Brewer at the Vtroqua Hotel in thiscity on Thursday, August 13th.

The two most dangerous classes inany community are those of the idlerich and of the discontented poor Ofthese, that of the idle rich is infinitelythe more dangerous, It is the causeof the decay of empires and it is thechuse of the positive cures and doubt-ful blessings of revolutions. It is aclass to be pitied rather than envied.The eternal pursuit of pleasure sati-ates, but does not satisfy. No greaterbenefit could be conferred on tne idlerich than to compel them to work, forin reasonable work combined withreasonable relaxation is to be found asmuch happiness as is compatible withthe limitations imposed by life itself.!
