and most complete job Printing office
in the Mississippi Valley, we are doing
a more extensive job printing business
than the other city offices combined, and
can therefore afford to keep up the
name ofthe 'Hcheapest printers in the
city generously bestowed on us by
our competitors. Ours is the only COM

where anything from circular to a
newspaper, or from a card to forty
eight sheet poster, can be neatly,
promptly and cheaply printed. We
will work lower than any other printing
house in this city tchea ace can make
money 5y doing so.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

Let as be MereifuI to Ourselves
The physical structure OF the strongest human
being is vulnerable everywhere. Our bodies are
endowed BY nature with a certain negative power,
which protects them to some extent from unwhole-
some influences; but this protection is imperfect
and cannot be safely relied on in unhealthy re-
gions, or under circumstances Of more than ordi-
nary danger, Therefore, it is wisdom, it is pru-
dence, it is common sense, to provide against such
contingencies, by taking an sntidote in advance;
in other words by fortifying the system with a
course of HosTETTER's STOMACH Differs,
the most complete protective against all the cpl
demic and endemic maladies that has ever been
administered in any country. As q remedy for
Dyspepsia, there is no medicine that will compare
with it. Whoever suffers the pangs Of Indiges-
tion, anywhere on the face of the earth where
HosrETTER's BIrrERs can be procured, does so
Voluntarily; FOR as surely as Truth exists, this
invaluable Tonic and Alternative would restore
his disordered stomach TO a healthy condition. To
the Bilious it i' also especially recommended, and
in cases of confirmed Constipation it affords
speedy and permanent RELIEF. In Canada, the
West Indies, and Australia, the Bitters rank
above all other medicines of tho class, and the de-
mand for tfem in all foreign countries increases
every season.

Here arc n or two points which should be

/ The premOnitOry of painless diarrhoea
is regarded BY physicians as actual cholera,
where's the public do Tot generally So con-

The moralis: Put yourself under 8 doc

this cannot be exaggerated. And then do
not take If for granted that you are going to
die if you should pass into the second stuge.
The chances of recovery are equal even
