A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DR.. Maggel 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 ulcerat
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
scrofuleus disorders with from one to three boxes
of his n,atchless salve.
DIR. Maggiers Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats. One of Maggiei's pills rectifes
the disordered condition Of the stomach and liver
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in q
space of time short enough to De almost elasssd
as marvellous. Il ~ = s
In fact Maggiels Bilious. Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns, Scalds Chilblains, Cuts, and all abrassions
of the skin, Maggiefs Salye is infalhble.

MoLINE.-At meeting of the citizens of

evening April 9Th, the following preamble
and resolutions were adopted:
WHEREAS, Drunkenness is source of great
grievance in the land and whereas time and expe-
rience have clearly demonstrated thatprohibitory
temperance laws have failed to decrease intern
perance, be it therefore.
Resstrsd That in our opinion a restrictive H.
cense law with correct police regulations is the
only practical way to promote temperance by law.
Resolued, That restrictive license law would
very largely decrease the number of saloons in
town (which have been migrated into the town
under the active hostility of prohibitory charter
prevent drunkenness and lawlesness-and prohib-
