kinds OF headache, though many others have
been introduced. 1t is composed of vegeta-
bles, and no deleterious plant or medicine is in
PRODUCED into it. 1t imparts vigor to the sys

the stomach, by which process the cure is etfec-
ted.

TOOK them about three weeks from the first of
january and have been free from the headache
ever since. | would cheerfully recommend

complaint a. WRIGHT

HUTCHlNS'
Headache Pi11@-

These Fills are recommended solely for the
headache in its various forms, whether bilious,
nervous, periodical or sick headache. For this
afiilction, one of the most disagreeable that
81 flesh is heir to, the public have long desired
a medicine that would be mild and safe in its
operation, and would relieve the head without
facilitating the body. Who does not know of
the many subterfuges rcsorted to as a remedy
and yet thousands of heads ache on? But a
medicine is now offered whose cure of the dis
tressing malady is sure and satisfactory.
Price % cents per box, with full directions.

TNIIIS FLOURISHING VILLAGE is situated
l. on the east side of Shell Rock River, in
the County of Cerro Gordo, surrounded by q
rich, highly cultivated and productive farming
country, which is well settled by an enterpris-
ing and well conditioned American population.
1t was laid out less than two years since, by
MIR. Wittfong, who now resides on beautiful
farm in it's immediate vicinity. 1t is situated
on the great thoroughfare leaving the Missis-
sippi at Lansing, and extending through De-
corah and Mason City. to Clear Lake, and is
intcrsected at Shell Rock Falls by roads ex-
tending north to OtrontO, Austin, and st..
Paul, and northwest to Wartlsvillc, Wauketo,
&C., &c. There is in this village, good state
of society, a School-house and place of Rclg-
ious Worship, regularly occupied. Shell
Rock River, us its name indicates, passes over
a rocky bottom, and has a
Water Power
of sufficient fall and volume, to propel four
run of stones.
There is now in operation at this point, a Store,
Saw Mill 4 Grist Mill,
doing good business.

The County of Cerro Gordo as is well known,
is one of the richest agricultural and best
watered counties in the State; and the river
is a beautiful stream of pure limpid water, in
habited by fish of the choicest quality.
Building Material is to be found in great
abundance Lumber is furnished by the mills,
and an inexhaustable

of said property, upon the most reasonable
unsatisfactory terms, as his object is to secure
First Class Settlers. .... ...
TO Mechanics,
there is perhaps no better inducement foI
permanent settlement, in any portion OF the
North West, as the village is bound to assume
an important position, and the country ada
cent has no superior in the State
