IN TOWN AND HAMLET
The seeds of intermittent and billions remit-
tent fever germinate sad bear evil frnit. No
community has altogether escaped it. In
populous wards of large cities bad sewerage
causes it, and in their suburbs st«ga*ntT>oolB
in sunken lots breed it. There is st once a
remedy and a measure of prevention. Its name
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which is with-
out peradventure tho most potent antidote in
existence to the malarial virus. Fortified with
this incomparable, saving specific, miasmatic
influences may bo encountered with absolute
impunity. Disorders of the stomach, liver and
bowels, begotten by miasma-tainted water,
'or any other cause, succumb to the boneficient
corrective named, and rheumatic, kidney and
bladder troubles are surely removable by its
use when H is given a persistent trial.

WILD FLOWER SECRETS.
Wliat May Be Discovered by tbe Searcher
After Knowledge.
Look well to yonr frtld flower, O poet or
botanist, ere you claim to know itl How
has that little fringed polygala laughed
in its purple sleeve as you described Its
beauties to your friend! Most wild flower
hunters are familiar with this lovely bios
som, with its close cluster of leaves sug
gesting those of the cbeckerberry, and its
singular o.-chid-like, purple-winged flower,
Inevitably suggesting a tiny butterfly with
a long fringed tail. It is always a prize, but
tho real nugget is below. A search down
there among the moss at its root
discloses a singular secret not
generally given away In tho nose-
gay. For this vain purple banneret
signals tho way to a new and unsuspected
pith in our wild garden—the cleistogamio
flowe-s—the plant having one blossom for
the light and another for the darkness.
,ike many of its congeners and n long list
ot othor plants, the fringed polygala shows
one face to tbe world and another to mother
earth. "Here, worldling," she would soem
to say, "take my fluttering pennant if you
will, but spare mv anchor." These subter
ranean anchor flowers nre borno on long
stems, and are entirely without petals, ap-
pearing indeed more like small, round-
sh pods than flowers; but they
nlant the mould with seed, and
keep many a spot in tbe woods per-
ennially tufted with the purple broods, else
exterminated by the vandal hand, whether
that of botanist or eager childhood. I have
rarely met with a wild flower enthaiast who
knows even the spring violet. Take the coRi-
mon blue species, for instance (viola cucul-
lata); you know it, of course. "It blossoms
in the early spring," say you. Oh, yec, for
poet and boutonniere, but not for posterity.
Go now, even In November, to your favor-
ite violet bed in the woods and find your
dozen blossoms where there was one In
May—if you can. The dry leaves are rat-
tling to tbe sowing of their seed chowers,
snot afar from tbe pods, ripening from
perfect flowers every day. I have a clump
of this wild violet in my city yard, and
even as late as November 1 have picked its
blooms, nodding among a veritable galaxy
of white threescornered stars of the open
pods, either empty or loaded full with
their charge of ceed. This flower is not
for beauty but for utility, looking merely
like a close pointed green calyx; but it is
loaded with a potent energy unknown to
Its vain vernal predecessor. For !t would
seem to bo a law of nature that fruition
is inversely as the petals of tbe
flower. Flowers artificially doubled
by turning the stamens into petals are
often without seed, or with seeds nhich are
germless. In the wilds where nature wisha
es to insure a fruitful life, it would seem
she sometimes entirely deprives the flower
of Its corolla, as in the instances given—a
pregnant text which is feelingly committed
to the prayerful consideration of tbe
world's garden, where all is vanity. This
cautious peculiarity is found in various
plants, and is doubtless the saving grace of
many, as in the case of the beautiful little
polygala, otherwise in certain districts
eradicated in posies. Tbe cystus or frost-
weed has a golden rose or two for the poet,
bnt later on lower branches a thousand
microscopic blossoms which bear the re-
sponsibili'y of posteiity likewise. The gay
young jowel-weed is decked with golden
trinkets, but later forgets her ear-drops in
the cares of maternity. Certain of the
clovers, like the peanut, bury their flowers
in the eartb to insure tne seed. [From
