One OF the most important discoveries of modern
science, tor the cure OF pulmonary affections is the
Basam OF Wild Cherry and the credit Of the dscove-
ry is due to the celebrated Dr. Wistar This valuable
compound has restored thousands of sufferers to health
1t expectoant, tonic and demucent and is said to be
purely vegetable preparation Under it's magic infu-
ence the most obstinate coughs colds and brochlal r
rtations disappear. We have used it, and can recon-
med it particularly at this season, when the great
cause of disease, East winds, are so prevalent.
THE ORIGINAL AND ONLY GENUINE
Wisars Balsam of Wild Cherry was introduced
in the year 1885, and has been we'll tested in all the
complaints for which it is recon- mended. For ten
years it has proved more efhcious as remedy for
Coughs, Colds, Influenza Bronchitis Asthma and Con-
sumption, in its incipent stages than any other medi-
cine.
From the Dedham, Mass Gazette, February 10, 1949.
The introduction OF this famous medicine to the pub
lie. by Seth w Fowle, has been of more SERVICE pro-
baby than any other article that has yet been dscov
ered and has effected more of various complaints
that flesh heir to than all the miserable compounds
that have ever as yet been trumped throughout the
country. The numerous certificates in his adverts-
ment fully substanates the virtues oft.

The conversation in the House of Lords about
the abortve and ridiculous effort Of Lopez and his
three hundred followers, is interesting rather than
important 1t occurred when the belief was that the
expedition numbered some six or seven thousand
fighting men. When their Lordshps come to
know the real number of the INVADERS and the
flrccal result of the enterprise, they will proba-
bly, acknowledge to themselves that they have put
on very long faces for very ludicrous cause. The
London Times, too, with its high sounding and
would-be significant intimation, that :" Great Brl-
tain cannot stand by an unconcerned spectator
while the reign of violence is in course OF lnaugu-
ration in the waters of the Antilles" will probably
regret a suggestion which would only have been
appropriate to serious occasion, and which will
tend to beget in the American mind, the very pur-
pose it was was designed to deprecate. IT the
British government were formally to inform ours
that it would not consent to our taking Cuba, we
should be very apt to go and take it. So far as the
London Times may be considered competent te
speak for the government, SO far will its language
conduce to create disposition in the United
States to receive Cuba into their fold.

"The news from New Mexico creates an intense

summarly knocks on the head all previous calcula-

"The Southern extremes in terrible rage resis-
lance not only to New Mexico but California, TOO

"The Texas members are particularly ferocious. Tex

to make this their rallyng ground. 1t is ru-

night to deliberate what is best to be done in this

Mexico now band them closer together"

The Charlonesvilles Advocate congraulates all who

only has serious disturbance of any kind taken place
but their general conduct has been exemplary The
experience OF the last and session has fully proved
that large number of students is by means incom-
