Mahony, of Greenwich, R. 1., writes: I have nsed the Kickapoo Indian Remedies in my family for the different plaints they are recommended to cure. I have found them just as represented, and would not be without them. My neighbors have also used them and speak highly of them. Providence, R. 1., Aug 28, 1890. Messes. Healy & Bigelow. Does Its Work Well Gentlemen,—Five years ago my boy was troubled with sever headaches and I concluded to try Kickapoo Indian Oil. It worked | so well I have kept it in the house ever since, and used it as a rem. edy for pains and aches with very gratifying results. I have also used your Kickapoo Indian Worm Killer in my family, and desire to say that it does its work thoroughly and well. Agent Whitfield Apartment House. HORACE S. SWAN, A Great Blessing. Messrs. Healy & Bigelow. New York, May 10, 1890. Gentlemen,—I have been a sufferer fox years with female troubles; at times it did not seem as if I could stand the pains. I suffered with terrible headaches, pains between my shoulders and across the smrill of the back, terrible bearing down pains, was very nervous and entirely worn out. The Doctors did not seem to help me. By chance I heard of your Kickapoo Indian Sagwa and gave it a trial. From the first it done mo good. I took eight bottles of the Sagwa, which entirely cured me. I recommend it to all women who are suffering with these complaints. You are at liberty to use my name. Yours, MRS. MANUEL De ALMAGRO, 171 East 76th Street, New York City.

To Ascertain the Weight of Cattle by Measurement. Mutiply the girth in feet, by the distance from the bone of the tail, immedi- ately over the hinder part of the buttock to the fore part of the shoulder-blade; and this product by 31, when the animal measures more than 7, and Use than 9ft in girth; by 23, when less than 7 and more than 5 ; by 16, when less than 5 and more than 3; and by 11, when less than 3 Example.—What is the weight of an ox whose measure- ments are as follows; girth 7 feet 5 inches; length, 6 feet 6 inches ? Solution:—s>£ x 7 5-12=40 57.72 ;40 57.72 x 31=1264>£. Ans.—A deduction of one pound in twenty must be made for half fatted cattle, and also for cows that have had calves. It is understood, of course, that such standard will at best give only the approximate weight. HE HAD A FATHER. They were singing the hymn, “I Have a Father in the Promised Land,” when a seedy looking individual was seen weeping at the door. The usher walked up to him and asked him if he felt the spirit moving him. “No, not exactly,” he snuffled, “Then my dear sir,” said the usher, “why do you feel so dejected?" < “Well I’ll tell ye,” said the man. “Them folks up in front are singin’ about havin' a father in the promised land, and it makes me sad when I hear it, for I’ve got a father, but he’s not in the promised land. He’s in jail for stealing a horse, and it makes me sad to see how much better off they are than me. It’s just my luck.” ERUPTIONS OF THE SKIN.

THE RICE PLANT. The cultivation of this grain occupies a large portion of the population of the east, particularly in China, India, and Sumatra; large quantities are also grown in Italy, Spain, Piedmont, and in some parts of America, particularly in South Carolina. The chief food of the Chinese consists of this useful grain, prepared in many ways. The mode of culture varies con- siderable according to the climate and local circumstances. The value of rice* as an article of food, can hardly be too highly estimated. In the East, it is the chief dish of all orders of people, from the Sultan to the beggar. Could Not Work. Messss. Healy & Bigelow. St. Albans, June 20th, 1890. Dear Sirs,—I cheerfully recommend your Kickapoo Indian Salve. I had the piles so bad I could not sit down, I used the Kickapoo Indian Salve and it cured me. I keep it in my family all the time. JAMES T. STEWART. Recommends It To His Neighbors. I bought four bottles of your Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. It cured me of Dyspepsia ; also Liver and Kidney Complaint. I re- commend it to my neighbors. I take a bottle every Spring and Fall. I have used the Kickapoo Indian Worm Killer in my family with wonderful results. It is certainly a great medicine for children. F. W. MOOEE, 137 Lake St., St. Albans, Yt. Could Not Use His Arms. I was troubled with Eheumatism for 15 years; could not get my arms above my head. After taking three bottles of.Kickapoo In- dian Sagwa I could use my arms without any pain. CHARLES JUDD, Eichford, Vt. Ten years ago I was taken with a lame back. It constantly grew worse, and the last three years I have suffered terrible. I have taken three bottles of your Kickapoo Indian Sagwa and it has cured me. lam now a happy man. DANIEL HAEPEE, Happy Man Eichford, Vt. A Wonderful Case. St. Albans, Vt., June 20th, 1890. Messbs. Healx & Bigelow. I was ob'iged to leave school on account of poor health ; had applied to two physicians and received no help; had been to Burling- ton and was no better upon my return. I consulted a doctor there. I was nearly prostrated with nervous difficulty, heart trouble and fainting spells. I raised considerable blood and had a very bad cough, but the condition of my back was the greatest trouble. When I began using the Kdckapoo Indian Sagwa I was unable to wait upon myself. I grew weaker all the time; nothing helped me until I began taking the Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. If it had not been for the Sagwa I should never have recovered. I have many times recommended ij, to my friends. MAUD y. KEMP. EKiPOO 111 KICKAPOQ 111 SilTil KICKAPOO INDIANS FISHING.

An endorser on a demand note is holden only for a limited time, variable in different States. A Negotiable Note must be made payable either to bearer, or be properly endor- sed by the person to whose order it is made. If the endorser wishes to avoid respon- sibility, he can endorse “without recourse.” A Joint Note is signed by two or more persons, who each becomes liable for the whole amount. Three Days’ Grace are allowed on all time notes, after the time for payment ex- pires; if not then paid the endorser, if any, should be legally notified to be holden. Notes falling due on a Sunday, or on a legal holiday, must be paid_the day previous. Notes dated Sunday are void. Altering a Note in any manner by the holder, makes It void.' Notes given by Minors are void. The maker of a Note that is lost or stolen. Is not released from payment. If the amount and consideration can be proven.

They come along at all hours of the day and night, and in all sorts of shapes. When a chap turns into your gate and announces that he is Damon, and that Pythias Is in a fence corner half a mile back, too far gone to foot it another rod, and he backs this up by quoting Shakespeare and giving you the route of his company for four weeks, why, you have got to do something.” “ Of course.” “ Borneo came along the other night and roused me up, and I went down to find Juliet on the grass under a pear tree, resting after a walk of twenty-two miles They had to have something to stay their stomachs and put new life into ’em, and j thought they’d eat me out of house and home.

Positive Facts. Timroo iHiiAN worm nun iHIWliiMi KICKAPOO INDIANS PLAYING BALL. NO BOOM FOB THE BED MAN. An Anecdote oe Ekd Jacket shows that he had a level head. Red Jacket’s determined and constant opposition to the sale of the lands belonging to the In- dians are well known. At the council held at Buffalo Creek in 1811 he was selected by the Indians to answer the proposition of a New York land company to buy more land. The Indians refused to sell, although, as usual, the company only wanted " a small tract.” To illustrate the system, after the speech-making was over. Red Jacket placed half a dozen Indians on a log which lay near by. They did not sit to- gether, but had plenty of room. He then took a white man who wanted “ a small tract,” and making the Indians at one end “move up,” he put the white man beside them. Then he brought another “small tract” whiteman, and, making the aborigines “move up” once more, the Indian on the end was obliged to rise from the log. He repeated this pro- cess until but one of the original occupants was left on the log. Then suddenly he shoved him off, put a white man in his place, and turning to the land agent he said; “ See what one small tract means: white man all, Indian nothing.” INDIAN HISTORY. The true history of Indian rights and Indian wrongs will never be written; The outrages perpetrated from time to time, by certain Indian agents, upon these poor savages, if the actual facts could be made known, would place the treachery (?; of Captain Jack for ever in the shade 1 The pen is scarcely dry from the contemplation of these things, when we pick up the daily papers to read of another outrageous murder—that of Big Snake, a peaceable, good-natured Poncha Chief, by a chivalric (?) United States officer and Indian agent, wearing the insignia of the most powerful government of the world. The picture of Joseph Cook, appealing to Boston and New York civilization, with “ Standing Bear ” and little “ Bright Eyes” present in person, as a vis a vis school for study, of comparative anthropology, and pleading in behalf of the rights of those outraged and outlawed tribes, comes vividly before us, and it is to be hoped that the seeds of his labors shall bring forth a thousand fold.

KICKAPOO INDIAN SAGWA. This great liver blood renovator is not a cure-all; it will not cure all diseases the flesh is heir to, but it will and does cure all diseases arising from a derangement of the stomach and liver. The liver con- trols, for good or evil, the health and happiness of man, when disordered and not properly performing its functions, the life of the blood, the action of the brain and nervous system are all deranged. On the stomach depends the whole system for its nourishment, and it is the most sensitive organ of the human frame, overloading of the stomach, strong drinks, and all other abuses causes the nervous system to become exhausted. Indian Sagwa aids the liver and stomach to keep in perfect order, it drives the poisons from the system, tones up the nervous in- fluences, purifies the body and restores perfect health. INDIGESTION.—DYSPEPSIA. Of all | the diseases to which mankind are subject. Dyspepsia, perhaps, is the most dreadful. When the stomach fails to perform its func- tions properly, then there will be trouble, and soon serious trouble and later death, for no person can live when the stomach ceases to digest food. Then how important it is to see that the digestive powers of this most vital organ, the stomach, is always in order. This organ is one of of the largest of the hu- man body, the food is digested by a free flow / of the gastric fluid, and when this does not 1 flow out in sufficient quantity or is not good. Dyspepsia makes its appearance, the appe- tite is lost,or if the patient can eat at all it distresses him to such a degree that he can neither eat or sleep, and all the most dis- tressing evil imaginations make their appear- ance. Persons subject to this most dread- ! ful disease, and those who desire to avoid its j baneful effect, should use Kickapoo Indian { Sagwa, it is a sure cure and preventive, mild I and agreeable in its operation, it assimilates with the food, keeps the bowels in proper order and is a sure preventive of costiveness. - It is nature’s own remedy, made only by the Kickapoos from herbs, roots, leaves and barks, gathered from the native forest, and contains no mineral. Thousands of people have, without solicitation, attested to its vir- tues and curative properties. Delay not to avail yourself of so popular a remedy—don’t undergo the painful torments of Dyspepsia, suffering long hours of pain and distress, when the poor Indian offers you his Sagwa, a never-failing cure. Try it once and be happy 1 It is probable more deaths occur from Dyspepsia than from any other single disease, when in fact, if attended to In time. It is on® the most easiest to prevent or cure.

Gentlemen,—I desire to add my testimony relative to the merits of your Kickapoo Indian Oil. Last winter I had an attack of La Grippe, which was accompanied by severe aches and pains ah over my body, especially in my left arm. I bought a bottle of Kick- apoo Indian Oil and applied it at night on going to bed. In the morning the pain was gone. I have also been relieved of distressing headaches by using Kickapoo Indian Oil. It is a great pain reliever Yours, GEORGE I. MALLON. Mothers Bead This. Kickapoo Indian Medicine Co. Gentlemen,—Your Kickapoo Indian Remedies have done so much good in our Asylum, that we think we ought to recommend them. We have used the Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, Oil, Worm Killer, Salve and Cough Cure for the different diseases they are recom- mended to cure, and have found them very effective in every case. We have almost 300 children in our asylum and have more or less sickness all the time. We think the Kickapoo Indian Remedies wonderful medicine for children and recommend all mothers to give them a trial. MRS. H. 0. BIGELOW, Superintendent Chicago Orphan Asylum, 2228 Michigan Ave, Chicago, 111. The Rev. Mother of the Convent of the Holy Family, Baltic Conn., writes that she can speak very highly of the Kickapoo Indian Remedies She always has a supply of each kind on hand the year around. For several years they have stood the test in every case. The health of two hundred children under her care is paramount to everything else. A fever, cold or a cough is seldom known, thanks to the Kickapoo Indian Sagwa, Indian Oil and Indian Cough Cure, while the Kickapoo Indian Salve and Kickapoo Indian Worm Killer have often proved their effectiveness. Cures The Orphans. COSTIVENESS. [Constipation.] The best remedy and perhaps the only perma- nent cure, is a free use of Indian Sagwa, but the patient should establish the habit of try- ing to evacuate the bowels at a particular hour every day, the best time is soon after breakfast every morning. It matters not if the bowels do not move, the practice should be persisted in, and in time it, with the use of Indian Sagwa, will break up the confined state of the bowels. THE CIKCUS.

MEASURING THE HEIGHT OP TREES.—The method of the Indians is to drive a straight stick into the ground and make a mark on the ground on the side where the shadow falls at a distance equal to the height above ground of the stick. When the stick’s shadow reaches the mark, measure the length of the tree’s shadow, and that will give its height.

How to Measure Com In Crib, Hay in a Mow, etc. This rule will apply to a crib of any size or kind. Two cubic-feet of good, sound’ dry corn in the ear will make a bushel of shelled corn. To get, then, the quantity of shelled com in a crib of corn in the ear, measure the length, breadth and height of the crib, inside of the rail; multiply the length by the breadth and the product by the height; then divide the product by two, and you have the number of bushels of shelled com in the crib. To find the number of bushels of apples, potatoes, etc., in a bin, multiply the length, breadth and thickness together, and this product by eight, and point off one figure in the product for decimals. To find the amount of hay in a mow, allow 612 cubic-feet for a ton, and it will oome out very generally correct. COUGH.

This table and the accompanying remarks are the result of many years actual observation, the whole being constructed on a due consideration of the attraction of the Sun and Moon, in their several positions respecting the Earth, and will, by simple inspection, show the observer what kind of weather will probably follow the entrance of the Moon into any of its quarters, and that so near the truth as to be seldom or never found to fail.

The nearer the time of the Moon’s change, first quarter, full and last quart- er are to midnight, the fairer will be the weather during the next seven days. OBSERVATIONS. 5. The Moon’s changes, first quarter, full and last quarter, happening during six of the afternoon hours, i. e., from four to ten, may be followed by fair weather; hut this is mostly dependent on the wind, as is noted in the table. 2. The space for this calculation oc- cupies from ten at night till two next morning. 6. Though the weather, from a va- riety of irregular causes, is more uncer- tain in the latter part of Autumn, the whole of Winter and the beginning of Spring, yet in the main, the above obser- vations will apply to those periods also. 3. The nearer to midday of noon the phases of the moon happens, the more foul or wet weather may be expected during the next seven days. 4. The space for this calculation oc- cupies from ten in the forenoon to two in the afternoon. These observations refer principally to the Summer, though they affect Spring and Autumn in the same ratio. 7. To prognosticate correctly, especi- ally in those cases where the wind is concerned, the observer should be with- in sight of a good vane, where the four cardinal points of the heavens are cor- rectly placed.
