To Owners of Horses.

Thousands of Horses die yearl.- from Collie.
This needs not be. Dr. Tobias Venetian HORST
Liniment will positively cure every case, if
given when first taken. The cost is only oae
dollar. Every owner of a horse should have d
bottle ia his stable, ready for use. 1t is war
ranted superior to anything else fol the cure Of
Cuts, Wind Calls, Swellings, Sore Throat
Sprains, Bruises, Old Sores, &C. This Lini-
ment is no new remedy. 1t has been used and
approved of for 20 years, by the first horsemen
in the country. Given to an over driven horse,
it acts like magic. Orders are constantly, re-
ceived from the racing stables Of England for it.
The celebrated Hiram Woodruff, of trottlng
fame, used it for years, and said it is far supe.
rior to any other he has tried. Recolleet Dir.

A FEW WORDS OF COMMON
r SENSE

How few there are who are not subject to
some affection of the lungs or respiratory
organs, who, by neglectlng premonitory syn P
toms, aggravate the complaint, until disease
strikes its shafts, causing inexpressible torture
of the patient and anxiety and distress to friends
tOnly cold" 81 slight sore throat" is
the needless remark of many when so affected.
Yes;'' Only a cold," was the thoughtless ex-
preston of thousands whom death has m irkd
TO its prey. ss...E .1-..s-... :. ..... p -, =
Forewarned-Forearmedl should be the
motto forever in the minds of all subject to
Coughs, Colds, Catarrh. or Influenza. Words
of advice should be needed by all suffering from
Asthma Bronchitis Consumption. Relief Is
within their reach; and if neglected, fatal
consequences ensue-a life of msery-a daily,
hourly struggle for existence. A contest In
which there can be but one yctor--DeathI
Does It not appal the strongest mind to think
of the result caused by neglect? Then why
delay? What excuse can be offered, when
timely warning is sounded ia your ears When
| the danger is pointed out, why not avoid it .?
NARsDENs PICTORIAL BALM has been used with
success in nearly ID million ofcases, and is en-
dorsed b. the Medical Faculty as the most
prompt and efficacous remedy that scientific
research has discovered, to relieve and cure all
cases of Coughs, Colds Influenza, and Con-
sumption, if the case is not beyond all hope.
Even when the sufferer is in the last stages, he
will find relief by using this preparation. One
bottle will convince the most incredulous, that
| the merits of this preparation are by no means
exaggerated; in fact--fall far short of the eu-
logies bestowed upon it by thousands no have
been cured by its timely use. A guarantee
accompanies each bottle, and dealers are in
structed in every instance to refund the money,

MONEY ORDER BUsINEss-We have
been furnished by Post Master Moak with the
following figures, showing the amount Of money
order business transacted ct the Post Office in
this city, for the quarter ending December 3 lst,
1867:
Whole number Of orders sold, 4c8, averaging
SO each, and amounting to $7,27a.74. in.
Guiding fees, 1926. The number OF money
orders paid was IS, averaging $23sl each
amounting to Sa,o23.sO.
This is handsome increase on the money
order transactions Of the office for the CORES
ponding quarter last year, when 1893 orders
were sold, averaging $l7-76 each, and amount
ing to S. EOS oe, including $4l.so fees. The
number Of orders paid was II, averaging
S24.65, and amounting to $l,774.93.
Considering the fact that there are two banks
here where exchange can be obtained, this is a
hattering report, and shows the deserved popu-
larity that the post Office money order system
has acquired among the people 1t is not only
perfectly safe, but it is SO cheap as to commend
itself to general favor, the following being the
commissions charged: On orders not exceed
ing $40, ten cents; over $40 and not exceeding
$50, twenty live cents. As the advantages of
the system spoken OF, become better under
stood, We have no doubt that its present popu-
iarity viii be largely enhanced among the

FATAL Accidental dreadful
accident which resulted in almost instant death,
occurred near the village of Hustisford, Dodge
county on Friday last. Mr. August Boeing,
residing In the town of Hustisford was driving
along in : cutter, and his horse taking fright
"a n away and slowed the cutter towards the
side Of the road, throwing Mr.. Boeing against
the fenc. and fracturing his skull to such an
extent ss to cause his brains to ooze out he
died almost instantly.
Mr.. Boeing was fine scholar, having grad
uated at one of the German Universities, and
had the entire respect of the community in

LET Us WAKE UP.-We suppose By
this time our citizens generally have settled
down to the conviction that we are to have no
lectures here this winter, such at least seems to
be the fixed and melancholy fact, and it is now
not probable that even Dickens will favor us
with one or more of his readings. Indeed,
Judging from the lethargic state our citizens
have got into, over literary matters, it is not
likely that Dickens, or any eminent lecturer,
could fill one side of a hall, with tickets at
only twenty-five cents which is rather less than
they sell for elsewhere. 1t is manifest that we
outdone ourselves" in our desperate efforts at
getting up the course of lectures last winter
and we presume it will take several years to
sufficiently recover ourselves 50 as to be able to
live through ancthe. such course. 1t WAS too
much for onr nerves and brains, poor delicate

downwards, and the boy behind him, but the
hill being very steep, and the sled going at a
rapid speed, it became unmanageabls and run
