the Sligo Iron is the best now in use. 1t will be

than Carrol's Corner. All they want is to get
Carroll out Of their way, and the way you would
have to sell Tobacco for dollar and half per

Vegetable Ague Medicine.

A safe and certain cure for Chill and Ferer, IN
all its complicated forms. Also, an efectual
remedy for Ferers Of every description.
This Medicine has been before the public for
number of years, and the beneficial effects so fully
developed, that the demand for the Pills has in.
creased to very great extent; for although the
Proprietor has manufactured near half million
boxes during The past year, he has not been able
to supply many parts of the country. This Med
icne may be relied on in all cases to cure the
Chills and Fever the first day.
Bilious Fever, Typhus Fever, Winter Fever and
Scarlet Fever all yield to the use of this Medi
cine. and are cured by this system of practice, in
a shorter time, and with much more certainty
than by any other system that has been recon
mended. Each box contains twenty.four pills
twelve of which will cure any ordinary case OF
Chills and Fever. A pamphlet accompanies each
box, giving full directions and numerous certifi
Gates of the efficacy Of these Pills. Price reduced
to 81 90 per box.
