THE CHLORIDE OF GOLD

IHE CHLORIDE UT UOLD
For Primary Syphilis How long have the
medical profession tried in vain to discover sole
the-reputical agent that could be relied upon 10
cure a disease more to be dreaded than all others
combined. Some Quack Doctors advertise to cure
venereal diseases without the use of mercury
But their statements are false. We have taken
pains to collect the receipts of some who make
great noise, and we find that they use the To-
dine of Mercury for everything, whether it IS
proper or not, and since we find them misrepre-
senting in this particular we have reason to sus-
pect them and I'D Omne genus in all their pre-
tensions.
Gentlemen there never was remedy capable
of curing the disease without mercury, until the
discovery of the Chloride OF Gold, and we submit
it to the test having thoroughly tried it, and
know it to possess all the qualities attributed to it.
Dr. Christian says:-The Chloride of Gold Is
capable of curing SyphaliS under all It's FORMS
and that in its general operations on the SYSTEM
it possesses many advantages over mercury. IL
is efficacious, yet gentle Itmay be administered
with perfect safety at all seasons OF the year, ana
under any complication of the disease. PERSONS
of either sex may be put upon it with equal safe
tv the only caution enioined is strict temperance
In other respects the patient is not required 10
change his mode of living.
DR.. Samuel L. Mitchell, the distinguished sur
geon of New York, speaks IN the following Words:
The Chloride of Gold possesses admirable VIZ
tues against Syphalis. The patient gets well I'M
der the operation of the medicine, with incom-
parably less inconvenience, without the hazard
of a sore mouth or salvation, and with very lit
tie wear and tear of the constitution | consider
the introduction of this preparation IN common
use. as one of the greatest improvements in mod
ern medicine, and | wish it was already as uni
versal as the malady it cures.
Other distinguished members of the medical
profession have given testimony of the great val
ue of the remedy, the statements OF whom we
have in our possession.
Gentlemen we shall be glad to see you at any
time-we are always prepared to attend to your
wants.
The above remedy will be sent to any persons
address who sends the price of the medicine

five thousand is needed in Illinois, Egypt

FORTUNE TELLING. The Cincinnati Ga
aeits says:--"There are eleven professional
fortune tellers in our city, who make q
living By assuming to exhibit twenty FIVE
or fifty cent glimpses Of futurity. They have
each from sis to twelve visitors every day i.
Many OF them have regular patrons, who
call on them weekly or monthly to run the
cards, look into the lucky stone, or try some
other form Of diyina,ion. Among those who
visit fortune telIers are thousands Of work
ing girls who pretend not TO have any laiih
in such things, but only that they try for
sport what will be told them, Their readi-
ness TO spend their hard earned money for
such revelations fslsifes their professed un
belief. Unfortunately they do place conf
dence in such revelations, about light men
and dark men, letters from across water,
travelling, marriage, and money galore"

4 tbs WAY THEY DO IT III NEBRAsKA.-
From the Nebraska correspondence OF the
Keokuk Times, we make the following ex-
tract showing how they treat horse thieves
in Nebraska territory. Writing from oma-
ha City, the correspondent says
.tOur Town has been the scene OF the first
exhibition of lynch law. Two horse thieves
caught stealing horses and running them
off TO the Pawnee village were brought IN
town, and the question was submitted 10
the citizens what should be done with them
There is no Jail in the Territory, and no
way provided to punish criminals after they
are convicted. So a jury oil six men Sc
Iected from the bystanders, who after hav-
ing heard the testimony, decided that they
should have one side of their head shaved
and receive forty-nine lashes each. This
punishment was then inflicted upon them
on the public square and in the presence OF
large crowd Of spectators.

The Reason

A good many people have expressed as
ton shment that there are so few Fremont
votes 10 the Ninth, or Egyptian district,
aud that the efforts to spread the truth there
have been so unavsiling. The following
extract from the late census, giving the
number of adult persons who could not read
aud write, may explain the reason. The
population there is mostly native, and con-
sequently the true state of society, as it has
ever existed, may be inferred from these
