HAY FEVER CURED. HAY FEVER is a disease from which many people suffer during the most pleasant season of the year, and one which renders their lives miserable. HAY FEVER makes its presence known by incessant fits of sneezing, followed by a flow of hot transparent mucus from the nostrils, accompanied by a burning sensation and watering eyes. The soothing action of the Carbolic Smoke Ball upon the membrane allays all irritation, gradually arrests the hot flow from the nostrils and eyes, and stops the sneezing and burning sensation. The Carbolic Smoke Ball will positively cure, and is the only remedy ever discovered which has permanently cured, HAY FEVER, a disease that has hitherto baffled the skill of the most eminent physicians, who have sought in vain to cure or prevent its annual return. CURED. HAY FEVER CURED. HAY FEVER CURED. "For Hay Fever, a new remedy, the Carbolic Smoke Ball, invented by an American physician, is now on trial, and has up till the present lime given far more satisfactory results than any other line of treatment. It acts to a certain extent homeopathically, and produces an attack of sneezing, seeming at first to aggravate all the symptoms. In a tew minutes the attack passes oft entirely, and the sufferer feels a decided improvement.”—The Lady's Pictorial. The Rev. Dr. BULLOCK, Editor of The Fireside, writes :“Those who are troubled with Hay Fever will do well to try the Carbolic Smoke Ball. From practical testimony we can certify that it gives great relief." "By the use of the Carbolic Smoke Ball Hay Fever and catarrh are undoubtedly relieved. A medical friend, a contributor and subscriber to the Nursing Record, has used them with great success in his practice."—The Nursing Record. Hay Fever.-All sufferers from this most distressing, complaint should write to the manager of the Carbolic Smoke Ball Company and get particulars of what has proved to be a real remedy, often when everything else bas failed--viz., the Carbolic Smoke Ball.The Fishing Gazette. " Hitherto Hay Fever has been considered incurable, but a remedy has been invented which cures it for the season and aiso prevents iís annual return; the name of this new remedy is the Carbolic Smoke Ball."--The Court Journal. " It is a wonderful preventive and cure of that common trouble, cold in the head, which, if used in time, it will cure in a quarter of an hour, and is very effective in the treatment of croup, whoopingcough, catarrh, asthma, bronchitis, throat-deafness, sore throat, Hay Fever, and other complaints caused by taking cold."-Baby. "The time of year so much dreaded by sufferers from Hay Fever is at hand, and a remedy has made its appearance that will certainly afford relief in the majority of cases. This is the Carbolic Sinoke Ball. It is sanitary, innocent, and efficacious, and may be used with advantage for children as well as adults.”—The Lady. "A valuable remedy, supplied by the Carbolic Smoke Ball Company and prescribed now by many eminent physicians, It is a small ball which contains that valuable disinfectant so powerful in destroying germs dangerous to human life. This is put up in combination with other ingredients that enable the carbolic to penetrate in the not disagreeable form of fine vapour through the nose, throat and lungs. The value of carbolic in checking whooping.cough and asthma has long been known, but it has never been available before in a form so convenient as in the Carbolic Smoke Ball."--Illustrated London News.

The cure of any of the diseases mentioned in this Circular, when chronic, may be hastened by the use of SUNILLA. The Carbolic Smoke Ball stops the trouble by attacking the local cause in the head, throat and lungs, allaying the inflammation, checking the flow of diseased matter to the stomach, and restoring the mucous membrane to its normal condition. SUNILLA removes the accumulation of poisonous secretions from the stomach, and by means of its antiseptic properties destroys the disease germs in the entire system, leaving the patient completely cured. SUNILLA is a tonic, composed of finely-ground vegetable roots, and contains no mineral substance. In cases of Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Constipation, Torpid Liver and Jaundice it will be found to be of the greatest efficacy, while as a blood purifier it is unequalled. SUNILLA may be obtained in two forms, viz. : As a powder, in packets, for mixing in port, sherry, ginger or orange wine, price 2s. 6d., post free. As a liquid, in bottles, ready for use, price 28. 9d. and 43. 6d., post free to any part of the United Kingdom. SORE THROAT INFLUENZA SNORING Cured by inbaling at bedtime.

Not far has one to seek to find a plenitude of helices. Helix aspersa, H. nemoralis, H. hortensis, H. arbustorum, H. virgata, H. ericctorum, H. hispida, H. rupestris, and H. lapicida go far towards sorming the nucleus of a good collection. In moist weather the smooth-barked beeches bristle with Clausilia laminata, and, if less abundant, C. rugosa (C. nigricans) is yet plentiful on the mossy banks and stones. Bulimus obscurus, too, occurs in company with C. laminata, and pupæ abound under fallen logs and stones. Pupa secale, P. umbilicata, P. pygmæa and P. substriata may be collected at all times, whilst a search of damp moss and stones will soon reveal Zonites nitidulus, 2. radiatulus, 2. excavatus, 2. nitidus, 2. crystallinus, and 2. cellarius. Nor will the searcher go unrewarded if he seeks for Balea fragilis, Zua lubrica, and Azeca tridens. Slug collectors would doubtless discover many varieties. I have once turned up in our garden Testacella haliotoidea. It would be a profitless labour to enumerate a tithe of the plants which flourish in and about our lane. So diversified with hill and dale are these rich thorns, sycamore, mountain ash, horse chestnut, ash, elm, holly, box, birch, beech and crab. Do not the orchards, too, spread out their treasures to catch the genial sun-rays ? I know no greater delight than, when the pink-tipped apple-blossoms are fully expanded, to wander 'neath their flowery shade, and, meanwhile, drink in with ecstasy the sweet concert of woodland music poured from a hundred tiny throats ; at such moments one feels that every sense is steeped in innocent delight, and sadly out of harmony with nature must be his soul who cannot find refreshment in communion with her in these her happiest moods. The transition from the overshadowing beech to the humble moss, that garnishes its gnarled roots with beauty, may seem a somewhat sudden one ; far less, however, than might at first appear, for are they not friends, from earliest life associate and interdependent? 'Twere needless to tell how lavishly these humble members of the vegetable kingdom have been spread o'er earth, and twig, and stone, and the mus. cologist will in our lane and woods find an Eldorado. Nor will the fungologist fare less pleasantly, for a profusion of curious forms spring up on every side. Very brilliantly coloured specimens, too, are some. woodlands, that, 'twere remarkable indeed if a wonderful variety could not be found. Not botanist enough am I to say if many great rarities may be discovered, but may yet venture to predict that the diligent collector cannot fail to add many an un. familiar one to his store. The meadow saffron flourishes in our orchard, the lesser periwinkle (Vinca minor) carpets the ground over large areas beneath the trees in the beech wood at the top of our lane, where, also, I have found in abundance the bee orchis (Orphrys apifera), the butterfly orchis (Habenaria bifolia), and a host of others. The moneywort (Lysimachia nummularia), is fairly plentiful in some places, and if, bearing away from our lane, we descend to the lowest parts of the beech and larch woods, we shall quickly find the spurge laurel (Daphne laurcola). A wealth of smaller plants clothe our banks with beauty. The mistletoe (Viscum album) is very abundant, and is to be found growing upon apple-trees in many an old orchard hereabout. Nor is our floral display confined to the plants beneath our feet, for from the time the hazel hangs out its tasselled catkins, and the yew expands its flowers, until the late lime (Tilia Europaa) perfumes the air with its delicious odour, we have a succession of bloom. Haw- and black One has a bright scarlet pileus, studded with small golden knobs ; this I take to be the Amanita muscaria of the fungologist. Many another bright-coloured " toadstool” of graceful form have I come across in my autumnal rambles through the woods; though evanescent their beauty, they yet afford the naturalist much more than a moment's joy, nor run in vain iş their short-lived course. Not yet exhausted are the attractions of our lanenevertheless, no longer are things animate my pleasant theme. Things inert—the veriest shadows of things that were, but are no longer-these must be the subject of my closing remarks—the remains of creatures that once enjoyed their short day of lifethen perished to make room for others, and leave behind a record of times remote, when man-earth's youngest born-was a creature in the far, far distant future. Could some marvellously facile pen unfold the story of their life, 'twould be a wondrous one indeed, but we must be content to read it in the vestiges which crowd the rocks beneath our feet. Our lane and all the surrounding district is situated upon the formation known as the Upper Oolite, one rich in fossil remains, which may generally be readily extracted from the matrix. Sea urchins and pentacrinites, and univalve from the New Forest. A. morio, L., a common continental species, has been reared from larvæ in the nest of a bee (Anthophora). I have one or two specimens of Anthrax in which spurious veins are present, this apparently being no uncommon thing in this genus. and bivalve shells innumerable, may be collected by the geologist, both in the quarries and road mender's stone heaps, trigonias and grypheas being exceedingly common ; rhynchonellas and terebratulas occur abundantly in our garden ; and when, after a heavy summer downpour, the converging water-courses pour their united streams adown our lane, it is converted into a very mountain-torrent, which sweeps all before it, leaving the rock clean swept. From this we may pick many small specimens. The collector will, however, doubtless prefer to gather his finds in the numerous quarries existing in the neighbourhood, nor need he diverge many steps from our lane to obtain the objects of his quest. Very imperfectly hath my pleasant task been per.. formed. I would that some more facile pen than mine had writ the story. But briefly though it hath been told, 'tis yet enough to show that within the circumscribed limits of our lane is stored materials of abiding interest, and that to record the life-history of its denizens would fully engage each busy moment of a life, e'en though its span should far exceed the allotted threescore years and ten. Alas! the besom of so-called improvement hath ruthlessly swept away many a sweet refuge from the toils and tumult of the restless world ; the joy of many a humble worshipper at Nature's shrine hath long since been translated into a pleasant memory. Though threatened, many yet survive-long may they be preserved -and last to disappear, and leave the world less beautiful, I trust may be “ Our Lane." Bombylius major, L., has a globular black abdomen, densely covered (and the thorax also) with pale yellow pubescence; proboscis very long ; legs long, slender, black; wings clear, with the fore border marked with brown; long 9 mm. An allied and less common species (B. discolor, Mik.), often mistaken for B. medius, L., which is a non-British species, is rather larger, and has the wings marked with numerous small circular brown spots, and appears in spring, especially on primrose. European and exotic species of this family are very numerous, and assume large proportions and brilliant colouring. No less than twenty-seven species, additional to the eight he admits as British, have been introduced as indigenous, according to Mr. Verrall. B, major, L., Wlk. i. Pl. ii. 14.

Carnivorous Diptera, frequenting sandy spots; the sexes differing in the colour of the pubescence. Flight swift ; larva living in the earth. Abdomen elongated ; venation well marked; legs rather delicate and easily broken off. Allied to the Asilidæ and Bombylida, with which latter family Walker erroneously included them. The six authenticated British species are more or less rare, T. fulva, Mg., being perhaps the most common. It is a black fly, with yellow bands across the abdomen, which is clothed with thin yellow pubescence, the dorsum of the thorax being bluishgrey, with two central longitudinal yellow stripes ; wings greyish, tinged with yellow; legs smooth and tawny ; long 9 mm. T. nobilitata, F., is also not rare. T. annulata, F., is easily known by its white pubescence-present in both sexes. Meigen records the larva of this species as living in rotten wood. The genus Thereva is now usually split up into three, distinguished as follows: Under-side of face naked : Psilocephala, Zett. Fourth posterior cell open: Dialineura, Rond. By E. BRUNETTI. 17. Bombylida. with large, globular, very pubescent abdomens, long proboscis, and long, very slender legs; their Aight being very swift, feeding on nectar, and inhabiting dry warm spots in the height of summer. The larvæ live on plant roots, or are parasitic on Lepidoptera. All the half-score or thereabouts of British species are more or less uncommon. transformation of several species have been chronicled by Reaumur and Schaffer. Proboscis long; antennæ contiguous at base. First antennal joint long : Bombylius, L. First antennal joint short: Phthiria, Mg. Proboscis short; antenna at base remote: Anthrax, Scop. Anthrax paniscus, Rossi, has somewhat oblongated black abdomen, covered with dense yellow pubescence, as is also the thorax ; the wings being pale grey, the legs black, the proboscis rather short (for this family). The species basks in the sunshine ; long 12 mm. A. fenestrata, Fln., comes THE The a 19. Scenopinida. Three species of this small, natural group (only one genus being European), are British: the venation is peculiar, somewhat resembling that of the acalypterate Muscidæ ; sluggish flies.
