CHOLERA PREVENTIVE,

THE GREaT r. ZINGARIT RIT7ERS.

HIS WONDERFUL REMEDY was discov-
cred aud introduced about twenty years
ago by DR.. ). Cheopsus, an eminent Egyptiait
physician.
rsfIe had long seen and felt the want Of some
Tnedy which would strike n, the root Of dis.
ease, and so preycnt much OF the suffering
which the human family was then compelled 70
endure. -
The great question was presented a his mind
every day in vivid colOrs as he moved among
tho sick and dying, and observed the iDclfcicn-
cy Of nearly all the remedies then In use. Thus
he was lead to think and experiment and after
ten wears Of study and labor, he presented TO
his fellow man the wonderful zingnri Bit,crs
The effect Of this preparation In the prevention
aud cure Of disease, was 30 marvellous and as,
tonishine, that the most Raitering marks Of
royal favor were bestowed upon han nho dis
covered il. His name ,yas placed upon the
Roll of Mobiles. and gold medal with the FOL
lowing ineripton--Dr. s. Cheopsus. the Public
Benefactor--was presented 10 him by the Vice
ROY. Ta 40
The preparation has been used In several
epidemics Of cholera, both as a preventive and
curative measure. aud with such great success
that II has been introduced Into noarly all the
general hospitals Of the old world.
The old saying thar an ounce Of prevention
Is worth pound Of cure, applies with marvel.
lous force " cholera, and therefore any remedy
that will protect us against this terrible disease
shonld be freely and pcrsistently used.
Al pathologists now agree that the cholera
poison acts on the system through the blood,
and that any combination which acts on the
c1cretory organs and keeps them In working
order, must prevent sufficient accumulation
Of the poison TO exert its terrible effects on the
organism. This IS true not only Of cholera, but
Of nearly all other maladies, especially the dif.
ferent forms Of fcvers.
The Zingari Bittcrs Is just such remedy as
the above conditions require. II acts on the
organs Of excretlon and secretion. keeping up
a perfect balance between them. This Bitters
is composed entirely Of roots and herbs, 90
nicely concocted that every organ Is acted upon
and put in tone. Its taste Is pleasant and IL
effects prompt aud lasting
Numerous eases Of the following diseases
have been cured BY Il: Cholera, Diarrhna

10 The country is enjoying
to use one of Mark Tapley's ex-
pressiOns-a saturnalia of crime.
Murders have become so common
that we do not pretend even to re-
cord them chrOnolOgically as a
succession of events. They are of
hourly occurrence, and in many
instances marked by an atrocity
of detail and fiendishness of de.
sign unparalleled in the history OF
crime. Licentiousness, and the
repulsive outrages which arise
from the dominance of lustful pas.
sion, have become fearfully com
mon. The land blazes with the
torch of the incendiary, and reeks
with the blood of the slain. Is
this the higher plane of civiliza.
ton upon which we were to be led
by the bOastful Republican party
the party of progress, of refine.
ment, the party of iviltzationand
humanity Illinois Free Press.

A PUBLIC GRIEvANCE.-The

A PUBLIC GRIEVANCE.-The
Court house, at this place, should
be pailed in, as a protection from
the ravages of hogs, dogs, horses,
cattle, and in short, every species
of the animal kingdom from the
rum-inant to the am-phib-ious.
The nuisances committed upon
this building are a burlesque upon
decency, and an insult to refined
community. 1t is a public griev-
ance that demands an abatement.
We regret to be forced to also in
clude, in this protest, the outrages
of human bipeds, who are emu
lous, it appears, to rival other
creeping vermin, in their utter
disregard for common decency.
The Police Jury should take the
matter into hand at once. Let the
Court house be pailed in, as pro
lection from the hogs, cattle, ETC.,
that infest our village. And fur.
ther, let the corporate authority
of our village pass an ordinance
filming or imprisoning any one who
is so far lost to all self-respect, as
to commit such nuisances ashave
with impunity, been committed
upon our Court house building
We would respectfully call the
attention of the members of Oul
Police Jury to the aforesaid con
dition of our Court house, hoping
that they may see the utility, as
well as necessity, of protecting il
from any further ravages from
either man or beast.
