Certificate of the Efficacy Of
DIR. WOOdWOrth's Syrup

DR. M. WOODWORTH-Sir This is to
~ certify that my wife has been afflicted
with the Scrofula from a child, and for the
last ten years she has suffered beyond de-
scription. 1t made its appearance on the
upper part Of the mouth, and also on the
under Jaw; it had become such an eating
sore, that small pieces Of bone have come
out. 1t was attended with the most excru-
ciating pains. In this manner she has suf-
fered without finding any relief She was
attended by some Of our best physicians, but
all to no purpose; they had all given her up.
At last she was induced to try DR.. Towns
ends Syrup, of which she took twenty bot
ties, but it did her no good. Seeing your
advertisement, she was induced by friend
to try your Syrup. i sent to your agent in
Hartford, and procured bottle for her, and
as astonishing as it may seem, before she
had finished taking that bottle, she was re-
lieved of those excruciating pains, and her
mouth is gradually healing. She has taken
four bottles, and she is now able to be
around and attend to her household duties ;
and we would hereby recommend this to
others in like manner afflicted, as being one
of the medicines ever offered to the public ;
and we feel duly grateful that we could OBJ
tain anything to procure relief.
Yours, respectfully,
JOHN EMMoNs,
MEHETABLE EMMoNs.

we,the undersigned friends and acquaint-
ances of Mehetable Emmons, certify that
hers was the most distressing case of Scro-
fula and Tic Douloureux we ever witnessed,
and that she has been restored to comforta-
BILE health after having been given up as past
cure by all her acquaintance, and that the
statement given above by herself and hus-
band, may be relied on as strictly true.

HoReE BREAKING FOR HARNESS. Be
fore the horse is attached to any vehicle
the HARNESS should be allowed to remain
on him in the stable several hours during
two or three consecutive days; he should
be led out SO ne may become thoroughly
accustomed to the trappiags. and a cord
six or seven feet in length should be fas
tened to each trace. With this the horse
is quietly led about, one man performing
that duty. while another follows: holding
the aforesaid cords, which. as the animal
moves forward, are TO be strained so that
he feels slight pressure Of the collar up
on his shoulders. The intention of this
treatment must be obvious; if the horse is
alarmed by the effect of the collar. the
man holding the cords which are affixed to
the traces can instantly relax them; and
again when he finds his pupil is reconcil
ed he may renew a moderate strain. and,
finally as much resistance as he has pow

The land Office at Edwsrdsville is still
daily crowded with applicants for lants q,

rapidly disappearing, and The probability
is that every land office in Illinois, will
be shut in six months hence. There may
be somo few tracts and patches of land leit
but they will be utterly worthless for all
practical purposes, and will not be worth
paying taxes on.
Several good strikes. or lucky hits have
been made, IL. entering lands recently
