Gss- A YoUNG LADY returning to her country
home after sojourn ofa few months in the City,
was hardly recognized by her friends. In place
of a coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had a soft
ruby complexion of almost marble smoothncss,
and instead OF twenty three she really appeared
but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause of SO
great change, she plainly told that she used the
CIRCASSIAN BALM. and considered 1t an in
valuable acquisition to any Lady's toilet. By its
use any Lady or Gentleman can improve their
personal appearance an hundred fold. 1t is SIM
pie in its combination, as nature herself is simple
yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in drawing impuri-
ties from. also healing, cleansing and bcautitying
the skin and complexion. By its direct action on
the cuticle il 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 ST, sent by Mail or

Medical and Surgical Institute is becoming sine

OF our citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputa-
ton although may excite surprise. is but the
signal of skill. and follows as the natural effect
of such cause. We are personally acquainted
with gentlemen who had suffered for years under
chronic disease and who had taken advantage OF
every available means that promised relief, but
without success, until they called upon DR.. Do
herty. who in an incredibly short space of time,
has given them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to
announce this fact, because the Doctor is q gem
tlcman who seeks. not by defamation Of others.
to establish his reputation, or to rear the super
structure OF his own upon the ruin of anothers
fame The Doctor conducts his Institute in snch
manner that must be gratifying to all his pa
tents. He examines, advises and recommends
without Charge and the patient after hearing
his terms for treatment can accept or reject at
pleasure In no case does the Doctor make II
charge unless he effects cure This, he is able
to do. because he feels the confidence which long
experience has given, and no doubt the consola
ton which appcrtains to that confidence. Per
sons afflicted with either acute or chronic disease
would do we'll to consult the Doctor; at all events
it can do no harm as for consultation he asks no
fee: nor does he insist on obedience to his advice
unless the patient places himself under his care.
His offices are on Sacramento street, opposite the

Editors know lots of such stories. They
don't often tell them, because they don't
wish to harrow the feelings of their readers.
We will add this, however, as a solemn
warning:
A young married man was solicited TO
take paper. He declined on the ground
that any village paper was not worth a DAN
though we do not know whether he meant
female beast. saw mill dam, a cofer-dam,
or the other kind. Well, the evening of the
same day, not loving his wife as he should,
and having no yirtuous employment on hand.
and not having a village paper to read, he
went into "by and forbidden paths, slipped
down and broke his leg.
If he had been subscriber for village
paper, and had been at home reading 1t to
his lovely wife. or had been listening to her
reading of it. this serious accident would not
have happened. But worse than all, he
dared not have an account OF the accident
sent to the village paper and his wife wept
many hours because he had no right to have
his name in the papers. lie had SIX weeks
to figure up the value of a DAN.
Let US hope that others will be warned by
this tragic affair, not to speak profanely of
village papers, nor ACT profanely, in not sub
scribing for them, and paying in advance

A Young Hero Kills Six Cheyennes and
Escapes with a Scalp.

Some four or five weeks ago, one of the
grading parties in advance of the railroad
had with them young man about eighteen
years, named George Wait. His business
was to break the prairie ground with plow
for the graders along the line. One morning,
as he was out about two and a half miles
from the camp, twenty y-One miles beyond
Ellsworth mounted on a mule, he discovered
party of about thirty Indians dash out Of
the timber on the Smoky Hill. and make
toward him and another man, who was on
foot, about quarter of mile nearer camp
than he was. He started to 90 toward camp,
but the Indians discovering his intention, by
the superior fieetness of their ponies cut him
off. Young Wait now saw them divide into
two parties-0ne party going toward his
comrade and the other toward him. lie
attempted to make the timber on the Smoky
Hill, but the Indians were too rapid in their
movements for him. He had two navy
revolvers, and resolved that the redskins
should pay for his scalp if they got it, and at
a fair price. too. Soon they came near,
circling around him with savage yells, and
to be we'll armed with pistols and lances,
very few having bows and arrows. Wait
returned the fire, and he says that several
nearly touched him. Indian after Indian
fell before the uherting aim of Waits six
shooters, and the assaulting party was
getting smaller very rapidly the dead In
dians being carried away by the survivors,
according to Indian custom. Soon he heard
the shouts of approaching comrades, and the
Indians made final dash to kill the brave
boy, who, manned already with bullet in
his leg, still stuck to his mule. One young
warrior came up until the muzzle of his
pistol nearly touched that of the boy, and
both fred-the Indian falling from his horse
with mortal wound, while the hero of the
fight only got a revolver ball in his side. In
q few moments more the rescuing party came
up, consisting of half dozen negro soldiers
and some railroad employees, when the In
dians suddenly retrented. Wait still had
strength to dismount and take the pistols and
scalp lock of the last of the Cheyennes,"
which last he now bears as trophy of his
