This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and iityati to steal the notices in which the press and people of the country had expressed the merits of H. H., anil in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to u->e their stuff in stead, expecting to make money on tha credit and good name of 11. B. Many others started nostrums pat no in similar stylo to H. 8., with variously devis-d names in which the word "Hop," or ''Hops" were used in a way to in duce people, to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those, with the word "Hop" or "Hops" in their name or in any way connected with them, or their name, are imitations or counterfeit. Beware of them. Touch none of them . Use nothing but genuine Hop Bit eens, with a bunch or cluster of green hop 1 on the white label. Trust nothing else. Druggists arid dealers are warned against dealing in imi tations or counterfeits. ALT- AROUND THE GtOBfS. It is stated that O'Donovan Rossa is at Montreal. His errand and whereabouts are unknown. Considerable confirmatory testimony in favor of the managers of the Tewksbury iastitation was given yesterday, but thtrii was nothing especially entertaining. T. W. Carte-, shot and killed himself with a pistol, in the Atkins, Ark., jail y«s terday morning, where he was incarcerated for debauching his own daughter and end ing in stamping her babe to death. "Do you know the prisoner?" asked a Harlem judge of a witness. "Yes, sir, I do: I know him intimately; he and I were in a bank together at the same time " "Ah, when was that?" was tha question of a shrewd lawyer, who was counsel for the prisoner. "Well, as near as I can remem ber, it was about five years ago, and abo»t 3 o'clock in the morning; none of the bank officers were present at the time." The witness was speedily excused. Sarah Bornhardt has been getting her life insured in favor of h«r son Maurice. The Hjanngers of the insurance company, the Era says, having heard so much of the fragile condition of tho actress, insisted upon having ti>« separate opinion of as many as five medical men. Each gave it his opinion that Mme. Bernhardt was i* the enjoyment of perfect health, and pos sessed, moreover, remarkable physical strength. From an examination made after the great final poisoning scene in '"Fedora," when the pulse of Mr. Burton want up to 127 pulsations to the minute, Mme. Bernhardt was found to be compar atively calm, hers registering most regu larly only 76. Oriental Fortune-telling. In few countries in the -world can the adveuturous "wight who ■wishes t® peer into the future have his desiro so easily gratified, in so many different ways, as in Japan. While in "western nations divination is merely tke sub ject ©f research and speculation among scholars, or, at most, is found at in tervals in rural districts, far from the busy haunts of men, startling tlue apostle of the nineteenth century civ ilization with its twelfth century su perstition, here in Japan it is a living force, exercising its influence en the trader, the farmer, pilgrim, and even 011 the course of love itself. Nor i* it confined to the poor and lowly ; mem bers of the higher classes, and the wealthy do not disdain to make use of the diviner, and he is equal to the task. For a tempo, or even a mon, he will tell the poor maiden whether her lover is faithful, or the coolie whether his pilgrimage will prosper; while for his noble patrons he can perform an elaborate ceremony, in some cases possessing even religious sanctions of the most solemn kind, for which he is quite ready to aecep-t a hundred, live hundred, or even a thousand yen. On this subject, a passage alanost as ap pli«;iblc to Japan as to China may be quoted here from Dr. Denny's little work on "Folk-lore of China." "DivwmioH is in China as popular as,aud probably more respectable than, it was among the Israelites iv the days of the witch ef Endor, and it i* not perhaps ?oing too far to say that there is not a single means resorted to in the West, by way of lifting the impene trable veil which hides the future from the curious of mankind, which is not known to ami practised by the Chinese. From '-Pinking the Bible" t© using the plaiiehctte, from tossing for odd or even to invoking spirits or to actually speak through crafty media, the whole range »f western superstition in this regard is us familiar to the average Chinaman as to the most enthusiastic spiritualists at home. The coincidence of practice and belief arc indeed so startling that many will douul'icsssee iv them a sort of evidence cither for their truthfulness or ior a common origin of evil." It is not intended at present to de scribe more tiiau one mode which is universal among the lower classes, and which can be seen at work every clay in the temples of the more corrupt or poorer sects of Buddhists inTokio and elsewhere. The materials are very simple. A. small rectangular or ob long box is led with slips of bam boo, each about six inches in length, and having 1 a number written on the end. These can be shaken out, one by one, through a holo in the end of the box; and, according to the number on the nrst stick, the diviner selects froui a drawer in a cabinet close at hand; a printed slip of paper containing- the inquirer's late. Tuo boxes vary ac cording to age or sex ; but the number of boxes in possession of one temple rarely exceeds sixteen, eight for the various ages and two for the sexes, with oorrospomliug drawers in tlie cabinet. Tuo stock in trade being- so small, and Vac divining priest gener ally iiuldin;;- some other occupation au./Ut the temple, lie can afford to &eU his wares cheaply. Yet an festival days lie must receive a large sum. At the temple between Ivawa&ki and the sea, the writer has seen as many as '2v)V persona tif&W the divining sticks — Jli.iaiji wo kiku as it is called in an hour, and All of them seemed to treat the ceremony with the utmost seriousness and solemnity, generally stepping out before drawing the stick, ami elevating their hands in prayer to tk« idol. Tins form of divination seems to bo ebnnected with Buddhism, as we tind it also used in joss-houses in China. — he box nud sticks are rarely found among the possessions of an itiner ant fortune-teller, an.L even then he is regarded as an impostor, «r a priest wikj has been discnarged. for his mis conduct from his temple. The Old Gum Shoe. Do you remember the old-fashioned rubber shoe? Ah, that was the shoe worth having. It "was none of your flimsy, trim, shiny abominations of" the present degenerate clay. It Tvas a gv-eat, clumsy, ill-looking moccasin, that had neither form nor Symmetry, but it wo tiki wear out a dozea-ol our ordinary modern shoes. What an art was it to put the thing on ! Turning it half in side on+, you put your toe into ite inte rior, and then -with a tug and a jerk you pulled the heel in place, and you were inside a shoe that clung to you tighter than a brother. And what fun was it at school to dimple is the toe, place a spit ball in the hollow, and then, with fingers inside, to send the ball with catapultic power smack into the face of the studious scholar on the opposite side #f the room ! Alas ! there is no fun in the modem rubber shoe, and but veiy little wear. Joy ami util ity have given place to more beauty of' outline and prosaic comfort. — Boston Transcript. MISS LAURA W.

My lungs and heart would fill up every night and distress me very bad. I told my chil dren I never should die inpeace until I had tried Hop Bitters. I took two bottles. They helped me very much indeed. I took two more and am well. There was a lot of sick folks here who saw how they cured me, and they used them and are cured, and feel »s thankful as 1 do. . Mrs. Julia G. Gushing. Battle Cheek, Mich., Jan. 31, 1880. I have need seven bottles of Hop Bitters, which have cured me of a severe chronic difficulty of the kidney?, called Bright's disease, by the doc tors. Rodney Pearson. Walhend, Kansas, Dec. 8, 1581. I write to inform you what great relief I got from taking your Hop Bitters. 1 wr.s suffering with neuralgia, dyspppsia, nervous debility, and woman's troubles. A few bottles have entirely cured me, and I am truly thankful for so good a medicine. Mrs. Mattie Cooper. Cedar Bayou, Texas, Oct. 28, 1882. 1 have been bitterly opposed to any medicine not prescribed by a physician of my choice. My wife, fifty-six years old, had coma by de grees of disease to a slow sun-down, acd doc tors failed to benefit her. I got a bottle of Hop Bitters for her, which soon relieved her in many ways. My kidneys were badly affected, and I took twenty doees, and found much relief. I sent to Galveston for more, but word came back, none in tho market, so great is the de mand; but I got some elsewhere. It has re stored both of us to good health, and Tie are duly grateful. Yours, J. P. Maget. New Bloomfielb, Miss., Jan. 2, 18S0. Cients — have been suffering for the last five years with a severe itching all over. I have used up four bottles of your Hop Bitters, and it has done me more good than all the doctors and medicines that they could use on or with me. 1 am old and poor but feel to bless you for such a relief from your medicine and torment of the doctors. I have had fifteen doctors at me. Ono gave me seven ounces cf solution of arsenic; an other took four quarts of blood from me. All they could tell was that it was skin sickness. Now, after these four bottles of your medicine, I am well, and my skin is well, clean and smooth as ever. llexry Kroche. Miltox, Del., February 10, 1880. ; Being induced by a neighbor to try Hop Bit ters, I am well pleased with it as a tonic medi cine, it having so much improved my feelings, and benefited my system, which was very much out of tone, causing great feebleness for years. Mrs. James Betts. Kalamazoo, Mich., Feb. 3, 1880. I know Hop Bitters will bear recommenda tion honestly. All who use them confer upoa them the highest encomiums, and give them credit for making cures — all the proprietors claim for them. 1 hare kept the;-;! since they were first offered to the public. They look high rank from the first, aud maintained it, end are more called for than all others combined. So long as they keep up their high reputation for purity and usefulness I shall contirun to recom mend them — something I have never before done with any other patent medicine. J. J.. Babcock, M.

I purchased five bottles of your Hop Bitters ot Bishop &, Co. last fall, for my daughter who had been sick for eight years, and am well pleased with the Bitters.
