A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DR.. Maggiel is the founder of new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach.and paralyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the uleerat-
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one to three
harmless pills. and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of HIS niatchless salve. 49,
DIR. Maggiels Pills and Salve have ushered in
new medical era. sNo more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples threats. One of Maggiels Pills rectihes
the disordered condition of the stomach andliver,
cleanscs the head and restores the nerves in a
space of time short enough to be almost classed

of the skin, .Maggiel's Salve is infallible. s.

SHALE We HAVE A FEMALE SEMINARY p
For some weeks, negotiations have been
pending between certain of our citizens and
Prot. Shaw, of Ohio, for purchasing the Blu
ford residence on Moline Avenue, charging
and improving the same, and opening there
objected that the location was too far out of
town-but when it is remembered that the
horse cars will run directly past the place,
and that pupils from any part of Moline OF
Rock Island can be set down at the seminary
gate at any proper hour ofday, this objection
is wholly obviated.
The gentleman who proposes to purchase
the place, fit it up and open the school has
not money enough to do so. He has some
$4,000 or 5000, and that he will invest

to raise, and those of them who wish to send

him the money. Those who do not want
tuition shall be secured on the place and re-
not ask any one to give him dollar-but
if our people will furnish the funds over and
above what he can raise, he will repay it all
Now, these are the principal points IN the
case-and if anything is done it should be
done at once. DR.. Plummer has just receiy-
ed long letter from Prof. Shaw on the sub,
ject, and our citizens should either raise the
necessary funds at once, or let Mr.. Shaw
know that the project is abandoned. He Ii

and has charge of a large school, at good
salary. IF this project succeeds he will sell

up the idea. Our people should act prompt

The advantages to Rock Island, of such
school, would be $4,000 to $4,000 a

A YOUNG LADY

Returning to her country home, after a sojourn
of few months in the city, was hardly recog
nized by her friends. In place of a coarse,
nc h,.-i--' f~~~ sh. had soft ruby complexion
of almost marble smoothness, =
twenty three she really appeared but eighteen.--
Upon inquiry to the cause of so great a change,
she plainly told them that she used the CIk-
CAssiAN BALM, and considered it an inval-
liable acquisition to any ladys toilet. By its use
any lady gentleman can improve their personal
appearance an hundred fold. 1t is simple in lis
combination, as nature herself Is simple, yet I'M
surpassed in its efficacy in drawing impurities
from, also healing, cleansing and identifying the
skin and complexion. BY its direct action on
the cutice it draws from it all its impurities,
kindly healing the same, and leaving the surface
as nature intended it should be, clear, SOFT smooth
and beautiful. Price 81, sent by mail or express,

AMENDMENT TO OUR CIrY CHARrER.-The
following amendment to our city charter was
passed at the last session of our legislature.
The advantage of it is that railroad depot
grounds can be located, under the authority
now granted, without going to the legislature
to get the contracts confirmed.
The truth is, both railroad depots in this
city are wrongly located, and both should be
removed. The Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
cifc depot ought to be moved to the block
now occupied hs Greenwelrs Boiler Factory,
Babcock & Andrews Tannery, and the va
cant ground above, thus leaving clear and
unobstructed road to and from the Arsenal
The Peoria depot should also be removed
to the slough, where there is plenty of room
for both the Peoria and the Western Union
depots, and BY which move we should get
the entire slough filled up, from the paper
mill to Huber's brewery, and thus annihilate
other. otI@ .-slsfa.
