The following description of the manner
in which the Chinese make dwarf trees is
nn intimation of their painstaking in hor
ticulture :
“We have known from childhood how
the Chinese cramp their their women's
feet, and so manage to make them "keep
ers at homebut how they contrive to
grow miniature pines and oaks in flower
pots for half a century has always been
much of a secret, it is the product chiefly
of skillful, long continued root pruning.
They begin at the beginning. Taking a
young plant (say a seedling or a cutting of
a cedar) when only two or three inches
high, then cut oft' its tap roots as soon as it
has other rootlets enough to live upon, and
replaut in a shallow pot or pan. The end
of the tap root is generally made to rest
upon the bottom of the pan, or on a flat
stone within it. Alluvial clay is then put
into the pot, much of it in bits the size of
beans, and just enoughin kind and quantity
to furnish a scanty nourishment to the
plant. Water enough is given to keep it
in growth but not enough Is given to excite
a vigorous habit. So likewise in the ap
plication of light and heat. Then, too, the
top and roots, being within easy reach of
the gardener, are shortened by his pruning
knife, or seared with his hot iron. So the
little tree, finding itself beaded on every
side, gives up the idea of strong growth,
asking only for life, and just growth
enough to live and look well. According
ly, each new set of leaves become more
and more stunted, the buds and rootlets
are diminished in proportion, and at length
a balance is established between every part
of the tree, making it a dwarf in all re
spects. In some kinds of trees this end is
reached in three or four years; in others
ten or fifteen years are necessary. Such
is the fancy horticulture of the Celestials.
A joke was perpetrated the other day
by h gentleman of Manchester, X. II.,
who was a passenger on the train from
Boston. There was some conversation
among some Massachusetts men on the
train in relation to various churches which
were passed on the route. On nearing the
station at Lowell the jail in that city came
in sight, when some one who did not know
its exact character, exclaimed: “What
church is that ?” “I guess that's a close
communion chuech,” said his neighbor in
the next scat, “at any rate it isn’t a free
will church."
Some grocers complain bitterly of nil>
bler*. A nibbler is a man who enters a
grocery store, rims his lingers into every
sugar barrel and takes a couple of ounces,
then goes to the cheese and cuts off a slice,
just to taste, tiien, as a matter of course,
mast have a few crackers, and perhaps be
fore he makes up his mind to purchase a
quarter dollar’s worth, lie has eaten up the
profits on two dollars' worth of groceries.

H. T. HELMBOLD’S
CONCENTRATED
Fluid Extract Buchu.
THE
GREAT DIURETIC.
The Proprietor trusts that his Remedies, from the
fact of being advertised, may not be classed as Pa
tent Medicines.
IlL Clir, in one form or other, has been presented
by every educated Physician for more than
TWO HUNDRED YEARS.
II. T. HELMBOLD claims a superior mode of
extracting its virturt. The experiments were made
while engaged in the DRUG business in the city «»t
Philadelphia, nineteen years ago, prompted by the
alarming increase of diseases of the Bladder, Kid
neys, Gravel and Urinary Organs, existing in both
sexes. These diseases were justly attracting as
much attention as diseases of the Liver, or any
other vital organs of the body. Upon the sound and
healthy condition of these important organs, the
healthy and harmonious action of the nervous sys
tem and Liver, and consequently' the happiness of
the entire human family, depends. That Bni.hu
should act upon both Liver and Kidneys, to pre
pare it so that it would retain its strength and active
principle, was his aim. It must not be made, as
housekeepers make tea, by boiling, it is a delicate
Leaf, and its active principle would be destroyed
by such a process. It must be prepared in YACU< >,
and from the Long-leaf, iresh and carefully se
lected.
THE SUPERIORITY OF MY MODE OF PRE
PARATION BEING ACKNOWLEDGED, I now
ship even to the point (CAPE OF GOOD HOPE),
where the leaves are gathered, large quantities of .
MY FLUID EXTRACT.
IN FACT, THE ARTICLE STANDS PRE-EMI
NENT, AND IS KNOWN IN ALL PARTS OF THE
WORLD.
The first and most important object was to ofler
to the afflicted a remedy that was perfectly safe,
and could be taken by adults and children. Igno
rant persons, who pay no attention to dose, direc*
tiou, or advice, might reason, “That if a teaspoon
ful. taken occasionally, did good, two would do
better, and perhaps a bottle would cure in a day.”
Many have broken down their health by dissipa
tion.and on his principle; but they had been years
in doing so.
What 1 would have understood; is, that no injury
can arise from its use. It is as safe as any article
of food; but patients must not expect any medicine
to rebuild a wrecked or shattered constitution in a
few days.
This truth is so self-evident that it would seem
unnecessary to repeat it. were it not for the fact that
thousands of persons who are intelligent in all other
matters, seem to think unreasonably, that a cura
tive agent must exhibit its specific effects immedi
ately, when the fact is, that time is often an impor
tant element in the progress of a safe and thorough
cure, even when the medicine is working the best
results. These same persons would expend HUN
DRED??, yes, THOUSANDS of DOLLARS, in
articles of LUXURY and DISSIPATION, and think
less of it than they would of FIFTY DOLLARS in
medicine to rebuild a BROKEN DOWN and WORN
OUT CONSTITUTION.
Notwithstanding the number of years I have been
engaged in business, there may he those located at
a distance that may not be aware of all the facts,
and would like to be satisfied on all the points.
Having been educated a druggist, I append the fol
From tho Largest Manufac
turing Chemist in

‘•Iam acquainted with Mr. H. T. ilelnibold; he

1 propose to give evidence that this Remedy is
not a patent medicine. The objection which gener
ally lies against all discoveries and inventions in
medicine is “publicity.” If somebody should dis
cover a remedy to prolong life, or an infallible cure
for cholera or consumption, what a monster would
he be to withhold his knowledge! We have yet to
learn from what chapter or verse in Scripture to
quote, “that may not heal others of their fellow men
of any disease.”
Nor have we asked Pickwicks, affected prudes,
or, in short, men who are possessed of every kind
of sense but common sense, and all kinds of opin
ions but their ow n. The Buehu is a good thing. It
has hundreds of thousands of living witnesses to
attest its virtues and commend it. It is the preju
dice of bigots and the envy of “Quacks.”

Cure of Kidney and Bladder
Affection of a Patient

THANKS TO 31 R . II ELM BOLD.
Girard, Pa., March 81,1M».
Editor CosmopoliteI desire, as an unsolici
ted tribute to the merits of n elm hold’s Bight,
and for the benellt of those similarly uillictedas
myself, to say that after consulting many eminent
physicians and trying nearly all the best advertised
remedies, in the vain hope of linding relief from
aggravated kidney and bladder diseases, from
which I have suffered excessively fur many ye;n>,
good fortune finally suggested to me IIli.mhold's
BlCIll', which I commenced using with little faith,
and no apparent beneficial effects for about a
month. At the expiration of that time, however, 1
thought I commenced to experience slight relief,
which encouraged me to persevere in its use, and
now at the expiration of four months, although 1
am an infirm old man, nearly seventy-eight years
of age, and consequently medicines cannot he e x
pected to favorably affect me as they otherwise
would. 1 have found such unspeakable reliol and
permanent benellt from Mr. Helmbohl’s valuable
discovery, that I feel I ought to publicly record the
fact, as an acknowledgment to him, and a valuable
; suggestion to the public. Yours respectfully,
D. 31. LA KEN.

DR. KEYSER
is a physician of over 30 years experience, an*I a
graduate of the Jefferson Medical College, mnl
of the University of Medicine and surgery of Phil
adelphia.
Mu. II. T. Hklmbold—Dear Sin: In regard to
the question asked me as to my opinion about Eu
chu. 1 would say 1 have used and sold the article in
various forms for the past thirty years. 1 do not
think there is any form or preparation *>l'it I have not
used, or known to be used, in the various disease.
where such medical patent would be indicated.
You are aware, as well as myself, that it lias lu en
extensively employed in the various diseases of the
bladder and kidneys, and the reputation it has ac
quired, in my judgment, is warranted by the facts.
I have seen and used, as before stated, every firm
of Itochu—the powdered leaves, tincture fluid ex
tracts—and I am not cognizant of anv preparation
of that plant at all equal to yours. 1'welve v.*ars*
experience ought, 1 think, to give me the right to
judge of its merits, and, without prejudice or par
tiality. 1 give you precedence over all others.
1 value your Itochu for its effect on patients. 1
have cured with it. and seen cured with it, more
diseases of the bladder and kidneys than I have
ever seen cured with any other btichu or any other
proprietary compound of whatever name.
Respectfully vours, Ac.,

A Case of Twenty Years’
Standing.
Philadelphia, Pa., June 25,I8fi7.
II. T. Hklmbold, Druggist—Dear Sir: I have
been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with
gravel, bladder aud kidney affections, during which
time 1 have used various medicinal preparation
and been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively ad
vertised, I consulted my family physical! in regard
to using your Extract Itochu.
1 did this because I had used all kinds of adver
tised remedies and had found them worthies-, and
some quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever
fretting well, and determined to u-e no remedies
lereafter unless I knew of the ingredients. It wa
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you
advertised that it was composed of bu« hu, cubeb
and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys
ician as an excellent combination ; and with his ad
vice, after an examination of the article ami con
sulting again with the druggist, 1 concluded to try
it. I commenced to use it about eight mouths ago,
ut which tune 1 was confined to my room.
From the first bottle I was astonished at the ben
eficial effect, and after using if three weeks was
able to walk out. 1 felt much like writing to vou a
full statement of my case at the time, but thought
my improvement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded to defer, and see if it'would
effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be of
greater value to you and more satisfactory to me.
I am now able to report that a cure is effected,
alter using the remedy for live months.
I have not used any now for three months, and
feel as well in all respects as 1 ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
and odor, a nice tonic and invigorator of the syth in.
1 do not mean t*» be without it w henever occasion
may require its use in such affections.
