This was done at Green ham Mills, in England, James Lyon, of Bath, writes that a similar feat plished in less than nine hours by one George McClure, who asserted that It could be done in ten hours. The rezerd of each step of the work still exists, with the exception of the shearing. The wool was colored in thirty-tive minutes; carded, spun, and woven In two hours and twenty-five minutes fulled, warped and dyed in one hour and fifty-one minutes; carried to the tailor in four minutes and was turn ed Into the finished coat by him and his journeyman in three hours and forty-nine minutes. e shears used in the work are still preserved, and be seen at the Steuben Agricul- tural Society's Fair grounds, at Bath.

When one has climbed a high moun- tain it is not difficult to mount the ordin- ary hill A medicine that will cure when the case is a desperate one, may be safely taken as a good all round medicine in ordinary cases, and itis not alone the very sick who need medicine. The statement is borne out by a multi- tude of facts, thoneands of testimonials frem reputable. citizens, that South American Nervine cures, after what are considered the best medicines in the eountry have failed, and where tho skill of the ablest physicians has come to naught. The acknowledged scientific principle of disease is weakness and disorganiza- tion at the nerve centers These nerve centers are the mnin spring of the whole system. When tho stomach is out of or- der the certain remedy is toset the nerve eenters in right condition <,-in, so with every other trouble. Thus it is that it may be liver complaint, nerveusness, in- digestion, heartbarn, sour stomach, loss of appetite, impoverished blood, con- sumption of the luncs, catarrh of the stemach, sick or nervous headache, sleep- Jeasness, pains in the kidneys, or other 'ailments from which « person is suffering Seuth Auiencan Nervine will care, and/ cure quickly, and best of all cure effec tively and lastingly in every such case Much as we were disposed to laugh at La Grippe as a trifling complaint when it first made itself known in this country, later devclopments have proved that it is aseriousin:lady. The atter effects ore such that very thorough measures need to be taken toensure perfect restoration to health . South Anibrican Nervine has proven wonderfally efficacious in giving" back health to the victims of La Grippe. Mr G JS Curtis, a wealthy and well known farmer near Windsor, Ont, suf- fered from a severe attack of this malady, leaving him exceedingly weak and with no appetite. No medicine seemed to de him any good until he was influenced to try South American Nervine and his testimony is this: '" After taking one bottle I found very great benefit from it, my appetite improved wonderfully, and I felt my strength returning very fast." Curtis then purchased five bottles, bat after «king only tkree out of the five, to use his own words: "3 am feeling us pearly well to-day as I eves id, and Ican attribute my restoration te health and stremgth selely to Seuth American Nervine" J.
