Much will be heard during the next 'few Weeks of the “viking ship," which sailed from Christiania, Norway, on Monday, and after cruisingr along the coast to gratify the curiosity of the Norwegians will cross the Atlantic and become one of the exhibits of the World's Fair. The little cralt nech explanation Near the town of Sandfejord on the coast of Norway, is a mound called the “ Kingsmound,†iocai tradition avcrrinu that therein rested the bones of one ol the old vikings wirese exploits at the 7’ltead of the warlike Northmcn are fatn- ’liiat‘ to readers of early European his- ‘tory. In 1880 a sailor began digging: into the tnonnd and struck a plank, ,which led to the discovery of the full outlines of a ship. He told the village authorities of his “ ï¬nd," anti they noti lied the Royal University at Christiania. As the ground Was hard, nothing was done till the following spring, when the mound was carefully opened. In it was found the skeleton of an old viking; ship and the bones oi'a man who was thought to have been one of her crew, but may have been a noted chief honored in death by burial with his boat. The vessel is pronounced a relic of the ninth century. and it. is now on exhibition at the University at Christiania. As this curious craft probably resembles the boat in which certain Northmen are supposed to have visited America and effected a temporary settlement called Vittland in the vicinity of the present Boston about a thousand years ago, the Norwcuiaus determined to build a duplicate of their treasure and Send it to the Columbus Exposition. This they have done by popular subscription, and the vessel is now afloat. Site is 76% feet overall, 10:1- f'eet beam, and 5% tool depth of hold. The bow and stern rise somewhat iii the form of a Calloe. There. is no deck, but a floor made in portable section: covers the boat some distance below the eunwaics, leaving.r a space beneath for stores but not for passengers. A special seat. is provided for the viking. Holes in the sides enable the boat to be propelled by thirty-twu pairs of cars, each seventeen feet long. Her lines are said to be as lgraceful as those of a. modern yacht, and she is expected to make good speed. The " viking" ship†will be bl‘UU,’iit across the Atlantic by a rather venturesontc crew, headed by Captain Mucous Anderson, to prove that Leif Erickson and his crew might have made the voyage with which they are credited before the time of William the Conqueror. The vessel will reach New York about the middle of May, and will be taken west through tke Erie Caual.â€"â€"Kittgst‘.m News. “ .-.. Glass Houses.

It is Safe and Harmless as the Purest Mllk. This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country by the proprietors and manufacturers of the Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by a. few of the most learned physicians, who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. , This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure of indi~ gestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of the greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It; performs this by the great. net-vine tonic qualities which it; possesses, and by its great curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strength- ener of the life forces of the human body, and as a great; renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the lungs than any consumption remedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nerv- ousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great; Nert'ine 'I‘onic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years.

As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges- tion. When there is an insufï¬cient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved. nerves, lilie- starved muscles, beeon‘te strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must; supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the first; to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not con- tain a sufï¬cient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it; becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out; of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de~ rangcmcnt. ' - meroaomnnn, Inn, Aug. 20, '86. To fix: Grant South American.
