triumphant Success 0F Tie Hungarian
RnLsnlla Of LITE

Triumphant Success Of the Hungarian
Balsane Of Life.
The astonishing success of the Hungarian
Balsam, in the cure OF every form of Con-
sumption, warrants the proprietOrs in solicit
ing for treatment the worst possible cases
that can be found in the community-cases
that seek relief in vain from any of the com
mon remedies Of the day. and have been
given up by the most distinguished physi-
clans as confirmed and incurab!e. The
Hungarian BaIsam has cured, and will cure,
the most desperate of cases. 1t is no quack
nostrum, but standard medicine, OF known
and established efficacy.
Every family in the United States should
be supplied with the Hungarian Balsam of
Life, not only to cOnnteract the cOnsumptiYe
tendencies Of the climate, but to be used as
q preventive medicine in all cases of Colds,
Coughs, Splitting of Blood, Pain in the side
and Chest, Irritation and Soreness of the
Lungs, Bronchitis, Difficulty of Breathing,
Hectic Fever, Night Sweats, Emaciation,
General Debility, Asthma, Influenza, Whoop-
| ing Cough, and Croop In case of actual
| disease of the Lungs, or seated Consumption,
| it is the only source Of hope. The
Hungarian BaIsam of Life
/ is rapidly advancing in the estimation of the
public, wherever it has been used. It is no
empirical remedy, forced upon the public by
indirect means. 1t is the old English cure
| for Consumption, which has relieved more
! cases of Lung Diseases than all the CHERRY
! PectOrals' and "Expectorants' known; be.
i ing entirely free from opium and other mar.
cotic drugs, which are the principal ing~e-
dents in most of the cough remedies of the
day, and which only paliate and stupefy the
| patient without affording permanent relief
! While this great English Remedy acts
specifically uDOp the limos curinO y,rOu,y M Il
all ordinary Coughs and Colds, and. if her
severed in, will most effeetually cure Con
sumption. If this does not cure you, yoU
can put your case down as hopeless.
Testimonials are daily pouring in upon US
of cures having been performed, even where
the most eminent medical men had aban
dOned all hope

Texas Tonic Syrup,
A VEGETABLE COMPOUND,

For the Rapid and Permanent Cure of Chills
and Fever, or Fever and Ague,
intermittent and Remittent Fevers, Jaundice
and Enlargement of the Spleen,
or Ague Cake.
The ingredients of which this medicine Is
composed are simple productions of nature
Astounding upon certain streams in the State
of Texas, and was ever used by the abort
gins of that State as a specific for FeVers of
all kinds, and especially Fever and Ague,
which they never failed to cure.
The wonderful operation of the Texas
Tonic Syrup in neutralizing the effects of
malarious poison in the human system, can
only explain its extraordinary agency in, the
speedy, thorough and permanent cure of
Chills and Fever or Fever and Ague, and all
their kindred diseases, in whatever form of
Bilious Complaints they may make their APP
pearance.
As its name imports, it is a tonic of rare
medicinal virtues, composed of pure and
harmless ingredients, and are so united as
to form a compound alike skillful in art,
beautiful in appearance, and can be taken
with safety to the most delicate constitutions.
1t is the result of lifetime of experience
and practice in a bilious climate, and was
never known to fail, even where all other
remedies had been tried in vain.

room in the new Court House, and while be-
ing agreeably entertained by R. G. Crawford,
Deputy Clerk, rather green specimen of
African darkness entered and requested an
interview with de ge'men what GIBBS out

offered his services, at the same time stating
that marriage license would cost three dol
lars. Oats all right Boss, said loyalty ,

lars Well said the Clerk, who is to be
your bondsmen? What you say, boss 2
! eagerly asked the darkie, while the white of
his eyes rolled upward like snow-balIs in a

Crawford smiled, and kindly explained the
