BsA- We were in error yesterday in
stating that the John N. Gels farm on
the Railway road had been sold for $18,
900. The farm was bought by Messrs.
E. L. and George F. Meyer. who paid
$40, 900 for the same, and we hear that
the farm is considered very cheap at
that price. A fine large house, together
with thirty acres of titled land,-in
that section-being only half mile
from the Roselle depot-cannot fail to
prove a good investment.

matter of enclosing all railroad tracks,
so as to render it impossible for pedes-

Romance ofthe Crennrse.

A romance of the Chicot Noir creyasse
is told in the New Orleans papers. The
belle of a neighboring country seat on the
banks of the river was assiduously courted
by two eligible young gentlemen, to one of
whom she gave her heart, but to the other
her parents insisted upon giving her hand.
She vainly demonstrated; but the day was
fixed, the party assembled, and the un-
fortunate girl, in a bewildered and half.
unconscious stale, compelled to "stand up
for the ceremony. Just as the clergyman
approached that part of the service which
REQUIRED her consent, there came a roar
and a crash. The river had burst its banks
close to the house. The guests fed in ter
ror, the bride tainted before she had said
81 will, and the rejected suisor, rushing
in, carried her off, and before night had
her safely married. The other, who he'd
promised on his part to love and cherIsn'
without receiving the reciprocal Pieoge'

Ayers Cherry Pectoral.
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such Coughs, Colds, NVhOOping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and COnsuna nfiOm.

Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine has anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through 4 long
series of years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their eStima
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat have made it known as re-
liable protector against them. While adapted to
mldCr forms of disease and to young children it is
the same time the most effeCtual remedy that
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan
gerOuS affections of the throat and lungs. AS pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Group, it should
be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidOte for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in
curabe, still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
CHERRY I'ccfOrdE. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
fOr0t they sabside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro-
lection from it.
fsthmo is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
cherry PectOrdE i'll small and frequent doses
So generally are its virtues known that it is un-
necessary to publish the certificates of them here
do more than the public that its qualities
are fully maintained.
