"Call to Test." This is the head
ing of a local notico which appears in

two weeks ago, and Bailed her for his

Fkiuk of Natiue. A few days
fiiiicc we saw a doublo chicken, about
rcc days old, apparently in a healthy
condition. They were undoubtedly
hatched from a doublc-yolkcd egg.
The chickens were joined together on
tho backs, and when ono of Ihem was
walking the other would have its feet
uppermost, and thus they would co
about, first ono being carried and then
tho other.
Erratum. In our issue of two

pressure. Now I feel that theso wa
ters have power to drive away dys
pepsia, and I am here now for paraly-
bis, and if it cures that will give it
another word of praise.
A word to the people of Alpena.
I find many here suffering from rheu
matism, dyspepsia and other wcek
nesses, that these waters, if properly
used, would cure. Yet they never
use nor go near them. In fact, ono
lady told me that she had never seen
them, a proof that we grow weaker
but not wiser, clso wo would cling to
the old addaged, of "far fetched and
dear bought, no profit in his own
country, or no good at home," etc.,
etc. That this may induce many to
drink of, and bathe in theso waters
and bo cured, is tho sincere wUh of
Mrs. J. Warner.
