1t is very easy to say Of this. or of any other
medicine, 1T is the very best remedy known, /"
1t is not always SO easy to prove it. It is, how
ever, exceedingly gratifying to the Proprietor
of this medicine, that, while he delares to the
public that this is Almost wonderful and effective
specific for Humors, as stated above, he has
abundant proof at hand to sustain his statement.
For sixteen years the HUMoR DocToR has been
manufactured and sold, and every year has
increased the value of its reputation, and the
amount of its sales. In New Hampshire where it
originated no remedy for humors is so highly
priced. An eminent physician NOV an army surg
com when practising in New Hampshire. purch-
ased between fifty and sixty gallons fit, during
some seven or eight years, and used it in his prac
tice. He has since then ordered it for the hospital
where he was stationed. Other physicians have
purchased it. and have used it in practice with
great success When the Proprietor lived in New
Hampshire, at Goffstown Centre for the space Of
thirty or forty miles around, and in Manchester
particularly, the HUMoR Doctor was well known
! and highly valued for the numerous and wonder
full cures which it effected. Though manufactured
in large quantities the supply was frequently
exhausted, and purchasers, had to wait for more
to be made. In that region some very severe cases
of Erysipelas were treated with it-and they were
cured Eryspelas sores, carbuncles, those ugly.
painful ulcers, were entirely removed wherever
this medicine was faithfully used So it was with
Scrofula and Salt Rheum. The HuMoR DocToR
cured them.

The Rock Island Assessment.

EDITOR OF THE ARGUS. Dear Sir-In
looking over your yesterdays issue of the
ARGUS noticed an account of the proceed
ings of the Board of Supervisors, of this
County, in relation to the assessment of this
town-setting it aside and ordering a new
one to be made. For the consideration OF
the readers of the ARGUS | would state the
circumstances connected with this transac-
ton, in the Board of Supervisors, as l have
them from one of the Committee on Equali'
cation, viz:
All the lists of the several townships, in
this County, were examined and compared,
this town included, and adopted as correct
as they could probably be made; and there
upon a resolution was introduced by Mr..
Joslin, of Yuma, and adopted by the Board,
that no application for alterations in the rs
sessnent of property should be entertained
by the Board from any person who did not
appear before the Town Board at its meet
ing to review the assessment.
Notwithstanding all this few of the radi-
cal leading spirits considered this good OPP
portunity to make little political capital
and carry out the programme OF political
prescription that has cursed the country for
the last five years, and induced few indivi-
duals to present their petition to the Board
of Supervisors, for a new assessment, and
that too after some of them had expressed
their entire appreciation of their assessment.

Horse Tanning 4 Training.
The Most Practical System known
in the World.
TESTIMONIAL.

Rock ISLAND, August u, 1867.
The undersigned, having witnessed an E1hi-
bition of Capt. H. G. Miles system OF breaking
and training colts and handling vicious and
tricky horses take pleasure in adding this testi-
moniai to the many which have been furnished
Capt. Miles elsewhere.
The theory on which his system is founded is
supported by common sense, and is practical and
affective. No one who has any occasion to ham
die horses, of whatever age or disposition can
fail to be benefited by thorough understanding
of Capt. Miles system.
Its chief beauty is in the fact that everything
is done by gentleness and kind treatment--no
harshness or beating-no Rarey ropes to agra
vate or injure the horse
TIE same principle is adopted in the training
Of horses on the track, and experience has shown
it to be as successful here in the first breaking
of the colt.
In our opinion Capt. Miles syetem is superior
| to any we have seen attempted elsewhere. There
| is no humbug in it. 1t commends itself to the
| common sense of all who appreciate the noble
| qualities of the horse.
