Not long ago he was prosp ectiug on the
side Of billy piece Of ground near his

depth of about two feet. struck vein of
water which has proved to be living
spring the only one in the township.
The water is perfectly clear, and is very
pleasant to the taste-having no sulp hur

" boils up" in twenty-five or thirty differ

has been able to make with long pole,

templates making improvements in and

THERE are some persons who will not 90

THERE are some persons who will not go
to store where dry goods are kept, to look
at boots and shoes, because they have been
so often cheated Merchants usually buy
a very poor article that is vanished up
and made to look neat, and do not wear
well, so that it is difficult for any one who
tries to do right, to gain the confidence of
the people. But our friends Westervelt
& Co. have succeeded by buying good
goods and selling them cheap, in getting
SO large trade that now they are able to
buy full cases Of all kinds of shoes, and al
so have them manufactured to their order,
thus saving the wholesalers profit and re-
ducing the price very considerably to their
customers. If you wish anything in the
line of boots and shoes be sure to call and
see their goods and prices.

CONSTITUTIONAL DIFFERENCES There
are many constitutions SO inherently de-
fective in energy as to derive great bene
ft from a moderate use OF pure liquor
combined with such vegetable medicines
and extracts as enter into the composition
OF Roback's Stomach Bitters, and there
are many situations in which even the
healthiest derive additional benefit from
their occasional use.
If healthy persons are exposed to unu-
sual and continued exertion in confined
air, or under the heat of the sun, or to
the influence of depressing watcEfulness
by travelling, and change of diet and wat
Ger, or if residents Of malarious districts
or the rank river bottoms of the west and
south, there can be no doubt but careful
use Of Roback's Stomach Bitters with the
food would surely be the means of ward
ing off actual disease and enabling them
to bear up unaffected where. without the
bitters, they would likely have to succumb
to disease. They strengthen, tone and
invigora.e, aid digestion and increase the
appetite.
