The little girl had a wound on the hand, made in trying to ward off her mother’s blows Mrs. Jones had been longing return to her old home in North- Missonri. She seemed very despond- ent in the morning. Everybody knows tbat, the conds tions for health are not favorable when the stomaeh, liver, and bowels:. are disordered.
