Go and See the Monster

Our readers will not overlook the adver-
tisement of the "Wild Animal Show, )" in this
paper. Mr.. Reed, the proprietor of this show
is young man raised in this county, and long
and fovorably known by many of our citizens
as a man of truth and upright character, so
tfat the citizens of Kenosha need have no
fear being hlrnbugged. What he advertises
to show, that he will do.
1t will be seen by the advertisement that
Mr. Reed claims to have one of the rarest
specimens of wild animals to be found upon
this continent. In its native home, among
the wilds of the Rocky Mountains it is kno wn
as the ''Tree-topper." These animals grow
to be perfect monsters in size: they are OF
the Moose, species, though of much larger
growth.
Our readers will remember an account given
in our last paper of the killiag of mammoth

as being the only living specimen. of this
branch of the moose family ever put upon

of natural curiosities which the people
of Kenosha will have the opportunity OF
witnessing during the season.
Our country friends will remember that any

CURE OF CATARRH.

My method of practice for the cure of Ca
tarrh embraces the thorough topical medica-
ton OF the affected regions by most ingeni-
Gus and painless process, by which every part
ofthe diseased mucous membrane can be ef.
fectively subjected to the most perfect and
complete remedial control
Not only am enabled by my plan of treat
ment to bring any and every medical solution
to act directly upon the very seat of the dis
ease, but the process, also allows the medica.
ment employed to be kept in contact with the
affected surface sufficiently long to exercise
It's full curative power.
The striking advantages of my method ex-
hibit themselves in the prompt and immedi-
ate benefit that follows trea tment. Frequent.
ly, after the very first application, the fetol
OF the purulent nasal secretion is removed
breath is materially purified, and sensible re-
lief from other troublesome symptoms
is experienced. By degrees the discharge
dlmlnlshes, irritation is allayed, chronic in-
1ammation is subdued alterations are made
to heal, until finally we succ ed in re-estab
fishing perfectly healthy ST face, and nor.
NAL condition of the parts affected.
In all cases of catarrh where the system
suffers from the deleterious effects of scrofula,
or other vitiated condition of the blood, the
local treatment Is invariably conjoined with
constitutional remedies. While, in such ca
SEES. the former is applied to correct the I'M
healthy local action and heal the inAamed
and liberated surface, the latter is, employed
to apply the ak at the root of the cause from
whence the local disease has grown.

to be superior to anything of the kind vet

soft and glossy, and it will, it is said, cause

lacked such covering. It is not properly 2

it to its original color and luxurance in q

are certain there are none in these United

all the curate powers claimed for them. while
we are sure that among all the proprietary
medicines in existence, Helmbold's ranks
first and foremost, not only among the peo-
pie, but among druggists and regular physi'

among medicine as "Helmbold's Fluid Elk
tract of Buchu," has made him the popular
man he is, and has SO placed his medicines as
to be without rival or even an equal. This
one medicine alone, Helmbold's Buchu, is so
pure in its ingredients, and SO positive in it's
curative powers, as to overcome the preiu-
dices of the regular fraternity, and to such an
