10000 DOLLARS REWARD

TT is estimated that 100000 persons die annu-
/ ally in the United States, with consumption
and Professor Eberly says, that vast number
Of these could be saved by the timely use Of
some proper remedy.
DIR. HALLS BALSAI strikes at the root OF
the disease AT ONCE, and such is its speedy Eff
feet, that any one using it freely, according tC
directions for twenty four or forty eight hours
and not entirely satisfied with its merits may re.
turn it and receive back his money. The most
distressing cough is frequently relieved by d
single dose, and broken up in few hours time
The afflicted do not have to take bottle after bot
tie before they find whether this remedy will
afford relief or NOT.
u Gail on the agent and get pamphlet gra-
tbs.
It'll effected cures in numerous cases, where
the most skllful physicians in this country and
ciScd their skill in vain. Cases which they pro-
nounced iHc'1u5le, and surrendered as hopeless
beyond u doubt, leaving the patients without a
single ray to cnliyen them in their gloom, have
been cured by DBS. EaA LIS gSAL@AM,
and the Victims Of consumption are now Wig
orOus and strong as the most robust among us.
And these cases arc not isolated ones; they are
numerous, and can be pointed out in every com
munity, where this most UnriYaled remedy has
been tested.
Be slow, then, to believe the oft repeated story
about the lungs being gone; or rather let no
ouCn apprehension luuUcC you 10 give up. hft
upon tie principle that ichiIe there IS life there is
hope. You can NEVER BE so LOW that you may
mot trust, humanity speaking, in HALLS BAL
SAM. More than one, nay hundreds, has it
brought almost from death to life, when all else
had failed. Give, then, this powerful but harm
less remedy a trial.
The public have been imposed upon by RENE
dies recommended by certificates which have
always originated from some unknown source.
We believe that Il medicine possessing real mer-
its will effect cures wherever it is used, at home
rs well as abroad. This is no paregoric prepar-
alton, but one which, if used in season, will save
the lives Of thOusQnds.

WILCOX & GIBBS
FAMILY SEWING MACHINE.
Price with HCmmCr and Teller $40 to $lOO,

THE WILCOX g. GIBBS Family Sewing
L Sewing Machine, is the best Machine with
out regard to price for Family Sewing, Braiding,
Hemming, Telling, Tucking, Cording. 1t forms
Il flat, even seam, which will notrip in wear even
when cut at frequent intervals, and makes the
highest and most elastic seam, for Full Cloth, of
any Machine stitch.
A peculiar feature of this machine, which de-
serves particular attention, is a PATENTED DE-
VICE, which prevents the possibility of setting
the needle wrong-and one which prevents the
Machine being turned wrong.
The Wilcox & Gibbs Hemmers and Fellers
are the only real practical HemmeTs in use, and
are worth one half Of the price Of the Machine,
over all others for family use. They form mar
row, light hem or fell far nicer than can be done
by hand.
The feed has no tendency to draw soft, light
goods down into the machine, but viii sew Linen
Cambria perfectly.
1t is acknowledged by all who see or use this
Machine that it is the easiest to learn to use and
keep in order Of any Machine made.
