DR.. ROback's Success.

We have always been inclined to receive
with doubt. the accounts of wonderful cures
in desperate cases. with which the proprie-
tors Of patent medicines are accustomed to
garnish their advertisements, but the effects
produced by the Scandinavian Remedies of
this distinguished Swede are so notorious,
and so amply verified by direct personal tes-
timony. as to put doubt and suspicion out OF
the question. The cures, as reported by the
patients themselves. comprehend nervous
complaints. dyspepsia, bilious disorders, fits,
rheumatism. and almost every species OF
disease affecting the stomach. the skin, and
t,ic organs Of respiration. Under these cir
cumstances we can have no objection in Civ
ing such important facts publicityin our col
umns. Hamlet says. "There is more in hea-
ven and earth than Is dreamed of in your
philosophy" and every day convinces us that

THE RAPID DISTRIBUTION OF MONEY
Spendthrifts, while they ruin themselves,
always benefit society. because they circulate
money rapidly. Any plan by which values
or money can be made to circulate rapidly
and change hands; confers blessings upon a
community, while any successful attempt to
hoard and shut money from circulation does
incalculable mischief. The miser is dcspised
because he boards the money of the nation,
which in truth belongs. as to its use, only to
society and its members. It's for circulation
and convenience, and not to be locked up
where it is useless and and earns nothing.
No one can doubt that Swan q Co.. of Allan

tribute millions of dollars annually by means
of their Saturday lotteries. one Of which is
drawn in each week throughout the year.
They act under the auspices and super ision
Of the State. and send to every applicant not
only the tickets. to which the remittance cnti-
ties him, but the result of the drawing by
C. subsequent mail. BY enclosing to them
ten dollars for a whole ticket. or q proportion
sum for a half or quarter of ticket,
