Prominent among orr leading men for
business capacity and public spirit, are
aessrs. d. Z. List6C Co. These gentle
men finding their present quarters too
small for their growing business, Col.
List purchased the large property op-
posite this once, on which the esle-
brsted Packer Hotel stood for many &
day; tore down the hotel buiIding,
and commenced erecting a business
structure which will b an honor TO the
city.
Is2 deep. The room to be occupied By
List d Co., will have q front Of - feet
on Main street and 132 on Quincy. The
south store room il l. expected 70 rent.
The building will have three stories;
the hESt l5H feet high; all together up
street, viii be Of iron, made by Sweeneys
& Co. at their extensive foundry in the
First Ward. Tine most Of the iron
work, which consists Of columns,
arches and pedeztsls, has already been
completed, and j. pronounced By good
judges the most perfect specimen Of
c4st-iron work ever turned out in this
city, certainly far superior TO any
thing ever brought here from Pitts
/ Durgh. -
The fronts on both the streets will be
built of pressed brick. and the walls
throughout the building will be faced
An elegant cornIcs will sutmonnt the
building. The roof is designed TO De
/ of tin.
/ ing the brick work.
| Thos. Drake. Esq., is architect and
/ builder. M Drake has heretofore So
| perintened the construction Of some OF
| The finest buildings in the city, and his
reputation Is a sufficient guarantee that
his work will be we'll done. He expects
70 have the building completed and
ready for occupation before the bad
weather OF the fall sets in.
In mis- connection take the liberty
OF saying that II any of our citizens de-
sign building houses public or private,
and should conclude to have cast-iron
work for the same, let them, before go
ing TO Pittsburgh or elsewhere, make
an inspection OF the columns, &C., Of
the List business house. They will
have the scales taken from their eyes,
and wake up to a perception Of the fact
that Wheeling is not whit behind
other cities in doing good cast-lron
work.

White Pine Conpound
The white Pine Compound,

at was early in the spring OF 81 that this
compound WAS originated. a member of my
family was afflicted with an irritation OF the
throat attended with a disagreeable cough.
had for some months previous thought that
a preparation having for its basis the inside
bark OF white pine might be SO CON Pounded
as to be very useful IN diseases o. the throat
and lungs. To test the value Of 1t in the case
alluded To- I compounded small quantity
OF the medicine that 1 had been planning,
and gave IL In teaspOonful doses The result
was exceedingly gratifying. Within two
days the irritation OF the throat was refnOV-
ed, the cough subsidized and speedy cure
was effected. Soon after this, sent some 10
lady in Londonderry, n. H., who had been
suffering for some weeks from bad congh,
oecaHonedb by asudden cold, and had raised
mucous stTeaked with bl cd. She soon found
relief and sent for more. Sne took about
Esa.' editor Of the Manchester Daily Mirror,

Steiy' He was 50 highly pleased with the re-
sults, and so confident in success attending its
sales II placed before the public. that he
send Il abroad TO benefit the suffering. In
November, 1855, INST advertised It under
thenAme Of White Pine Compound In iwO
years nom that time there had been whole
sailed In Manchester alone one hundred dol
lars worth, where 1t took the lead OF all the
mSintains that position. There is good rea-
son for this; It is very soothing and healing
in its nature; is warming TO the stomach and
pleasant wtthal 70 the taste, and is exceed.
s.Ss a remedy for kidney complaints the
White Pine Compound stands unTivaled. II
Was not originated for that purpose; but
person in using II for cough was not only
cured OF the cough. but WAS also cured OF
kidney dimcuity OF ten years standing. since
that accidental discovery many thousands
have used II for the same complaint, and
have been completely cured"
The above was written by Dr.. Poland. in
1880. Since then, as in Manchester, the
White Pine Compound has taken the lead Of
all Cough remedies, as well as preparation
for the cuEeoE Kidney difficulties, In every city
own, village and hamlet throughout the
New England States.
