TINE GREAT FLOOD of 1917 will he long re-
4 membered in many parts of the West. The
swollen streams seemed to know bounds; but MS
ing higher and higher carried dsmay the inhabi-
tants Merchants obliged remove their wares
from the rivers sides to remoter places families
compelled to desert their dwellings, the poor suffered
more severe than language can describe. The pub
lie authorities called on to administer aid and
counsel. In short, great public calamity had &C.
cured
Well would it be if the sad consequences of the
Flood had ceased when the waters subsidized. But no!
aF-The retreing waves left vast alluvial depostes,
which in few months MUST give out that deleterous
miasm which produces bilious diseases
What says the celebrated DR.. Ferguson on this
point? Answer: The cause OF bilious arrangement
has its principal source in halfdred margins drivers
All history and experience proves this theory: When
the British army encamped on the plains OF Estrem-
adura, at time when the river Guadiana had become
dry after flood, remttent and intermittent fevers
ragged among the troops with such destructive maig
nifty that they came nigh being extirpated
The Graetenberg Company, therefore, earnestly
call the attention OF the entire West their most ex
trao-dinary and celebrated series OF Anti Bilious
Medicines In every locality where there IS the
slightest tendency to any form OF Fever, Fever and
Ague Dumb Ague and the like, the inhabitants
should at once send the General Agent OF the dis
trict and have Graefenberg Depot established near

By such means bilious diseases will be entirely pre-

DISEASE OFTHE HEART, RUPTURE AND
DROPSY.
New YORK July, %, 1876.
DR.. TowNsEND-Dear Sir: My wife has been af.
icted with a terrible rapture for over fifteen wears
the greater palt of the time She has been troubled
with shorness OF breath q great uttering of the heart
which has been very distressing and has frequently
been unable to leave her bed The rupture was We ~
large and She tried almost every remedy for
such with but little benefit. When she had ia
ken but three bottles Of your excellent medicine she
was entirely relieved of the disease of the heart and
the rupture has almost entirely disappeared
She has also had the dropsy and was verv n,,cb
swollen. We had no idea that she could be SO bene-
fitted, as she had such complication of diseases
But it has, strange it may appear, relieved her
of the dropsy. l am aware that this statement is so
strange to appear almost like fiction but it is
sober reality. Your Sarsaparlla is certainly vaIu-
able medicine, and should be used by every one that
is suffering we have been. If any disbeleve this
account, they at liberty call my house and
have ocular demonstration. Yours, respectfully.

Intelligence to the Latest Moment.

LIVERPOOL, February 9th.
By telegraph to London, later advices have
been received from Paris. Things were more
calm, and great efforts wers making to restore
confidence; but it was feared that the calm was
only the precursor of farther outbreaks.
The locality of Louis Philippe is uncertain.
The Duke de Nemours' destination is England
The excitement in the provinces is equal to
that in the capital. The cause of the revolu-
ton was Guizots prohibition of the great reform
banquets.
In London, French funds declined from 80
to So.
