HOME INTERESTS.

DS- We would call attention to the card
of DR.. Hutchinson, Dentist, corner Of Main
and Second streets, who, after over FIVE
years successful practice among US, has es-
tablished reputation for doing good work,
seldom acquired in the same length of time
Relying on the merits of his work. ease of
operations, by his unassuming and gentle
manly department., he has succeeded in
gaining the good wishes of all who have
been so fortunate as to secure his services.
Strangers visiting our city would do well
to call and see the Doctor, and examine his
specimens of teeth, as they cannot be sur
passed in strength, beauty and natural ex-
preston, thereby securing to the most fas-
tidious perfect satisfaction.

The Empire of HeaIth-WhO Yields
ITS Sceptre.

The Empire of Health-WhO Yields
ITS Sceptre.
Universal Empire has been the darling
object of scores of despots, dynasties, and
states, from the time of the Pbaraohs to
that of Napoleon Le Grand. Seas of blood
have been shed to attain it, and the bones
of the myriads who have been slaughtered
in the pursuit of this chimera, would, if
they could be collected in one mass, over
top the highest top of the Himalayan noun
taius. Rome came nearest the consumnla-
ton, yet even she was never, in truth, the
absolute " Mistress of the World"
Yet there is species of universal empire
which has been attained. 1t is an empire
not over the souls and bodies of mankind,
but over their diseases. The conqueror who
has achieved this grand result is DR.. Hol-
lOway, of London; at least we are taught
to believe that be has done so by vouchers
from all parts of the Christian and heather
world, which seemed 10 be irrefstable, and
which, in fact, so far as we know, have
never been challenged. His Pills and Oint-
ment are universal remedies" in double
sense. They are disseminated throughout
the habitable globe, and they are $50
"crowds of witnesses" assure usl usaiUeTsdL-
ly successful
In this country it is quite certain that
the Pills are used with the most beneficial
effect 10 disorders of the stomach, liver and
bowels, and that scrofula, and all the family
of eruptive diseases and discharging sores,
give way to the healing operations of the
Ointment
Surely the noblest of all universal en-
pires is that which stretches its healing
sceptre over the maladies of all nations.
