OUR FAMILY PHYsICIAN.-This Is
a hook which it gives US pleasure to
recommend, comprising In one vol
ume of 544 well, but closely printed,
pages, all that people generally have
time to read about how to get well
when sick, or. being well, how to
keep so. The language is studiously
simple, so that all can understand 1T,
and its directions are given In terms
so brief and clear as to be unmistak-
able. We notice one new and most
valuable feature in it, namely: the
sGyeral methods of treatment follow
ed the leading schools of medicine
are all given-Allopathic, Homeo-
pathic, Eclectic, Hydropathic, and
Herbal. These different modes OF
treatment are all set forth for ones
own choice, as his preference or me-
cessities may dictate; or, if desirable,
he may employ combination of two
or more Of them.
Taking into consideration the great
practical value and low price of the
work, it seems to us that no family
can well afford to be withoutit. We
learn that in the city of Chicago
alone, where the author resides, be-
tween two and three thousand copies
have been disposed OF already. The
publishers are j. s. Goodman & Co.,
5 Custom House Place, Chicago.

OUR New HoME.-The Orphans
Home is rapidly approaching com.
pletion. The plasterers are putting
on the last coat-so that the New
Home will soon be ready for occu.
pancy. We understand that its in.
tended occupants will move into and
take possession i'm about ten days.
The contrast between present quar-
tiers and the New Home will be such
that the students and teachers can
not but be greatly delighted, as the
rooms are large and beautifully fin.
ished. The view from the observa.
tory is one of the finest in the State,
and cannot but please and crafty all
who will seek it,. We recommend IL
to visitors who may wish to obtain a
grand view of Upper Iowa.

Our churches are noted for the lib
erality With which they contribute
to every good or benevolent object
which presents itself, and i'm this res
pect they are so ingenious that moth
ing is more easy than for some one
from q distance, with considerable
assurance, to find his way before a
large religious audience with some
pretended benevolent object, anti re-
ceive aliberal collection. Too many
imposters who find it easier to beg
than to earn an honest living, find
their way into some one of the
churches, and not only live upon
them but seriously injurc and retard
their usefulness. Whenever we think
we have found such an individual
we purpose giving him the full ben
eft of our pen, and we hold it to be
duty of every church member to see
that every thing of this character is
thoroughly sifted. that we may
know what are genuine and give
such q whole souled support.
We are led to these remarks by the
announcement that a converted Ital-
ian will lecture in one of the churches
of our city, on Monday evening next,
and take up collection for the pur-
pose of raising money to go as mis-
sionary to Italy. Now, it is known
that this gentleman has been in this
same business some eight years, and
i'm that time has lived quite fast,
and, before giving cent of ouI
Daeans, we intend to know how
much he has collected, how much
he has on hand, and how much
longer it will be before he is ready to
start.
If we are wrong in this matter we
will make it known cheerfuIly, but
if we think, after hearing you, Mr.
Italian, that you are imposing upor
the Church, as we have reason TO be
lieve, we have more ink for you.

A SUBSTANTIAL REsIDENCE.-Th Inc
new Residence of cd. G. Overman
lately completed is one of the best il
not the best in the county. AL
though not so ornamental as some il
is neat and tasty, and no part of il
has been slighted either in arrang-
ment or construction. We can SAFE
ly assert that their are no better walls
to be found than have been put I'm
this building by our townsmen Mr..
Moulton, and if any doubt they can
examine for themselves, and while
doing so they should not fail to go
upon the top of the building and
witness the view of our city and sur
rounding counties. One can see
many miles i'm every direction, aud
trains can be seen as they approach
from the north just this side Of Wa

LARGE PREPARATIONS FOR FALL
TRADE.-We stepped In at Wise &
Bryant's Drug Store, one day this
week. and were surprised. at the
large arrival of new goods, from diff
ferent parts of the United States
First, we saw large boxes of drugs
and medicines being unpacked and
piled up till the shelves creaked.
Then our eyes rested on a very large
and we'll selected lot of fancy goods,
such as albums, portfolios, ladies
work boxes, wallets, knives, chess
men and boards, soaps, combs,
brushes, and a thousand other no.
tions. On the other side. we saw
shelves and counter loaded with new
books, initial stationery, parlor
games, &c. We looked for one of the
proprietors to inquire the price of a
large Bible, but they being busy just
then, loading a wagon with cement,
paint, oil, glass and putty. we con-
cluded to call again. Wise & Bryant
will sell goods cheap.

GOOD SHowING.-Peter Melendy
President of the State Agricultural
S ociety, in his address gives the fol-
lowing as examples of the growth of
Iowa: II here speak of the prosper
ity of one or two counties thai lave
come under my own observation, and
think we can take them as an aver
age. The county of Black Hawk has
population of 1861, more than
doubled i'm the last ten years. In
1867 she raised 100000 bushels of
wheat, in 1868, LIS, l07 bushels
She will produce 100000 bushels
this year. Tama county has pop
ulation of IA, 216, and Butler county
5000 i'm the three counties total of
80, 1T2. The three counties have l.
95S, $50 acres Of land, under the rlow.
The census shows that the amount
of wheat, corn, and oats produced in
1868 was 6,6l9, 9l6 bushels they will
show an increase this year ('69) of
one-third at least, s,s23, 22l bushels.
From such estimates, what will our
entire State be when she has all her
tillable land under the plow?"

PETTY THEIvING.-There seems
to be an unusual amount of theiving
in our town at the present time, and
we are glad to hear that the guilty
parties are being watched and may
yet come to grief within the walls of
our County Jail. DIR. Kerr lost
about 30 pounds of choice honey this
week. A fine lot of grapes were
taken from L. b. Carpenter, and
every apple has has been taken from
the trees on II. NJ. Cameron's lots In
the south part of town. Others have
suffered at the hands of these low
lived whelps, and every exertion
should be made to teach them that
this is not the place for them.
