Debility and Emar iation.

Both result from the lack of ability to
convert the food into nutriment. How
necessary, then, for those suffering from
these alarming symptoms to immedia-
tely resort 10 remedy that will
strengthen tn , stomach and digestive
organs. For, as soon as this desirable
object has been accomplished the health
improves, and the patient resumes his
usual personal appearance. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters have attained world
wide popularity in such cases, and have
been proven the best and safest means
of removing constipation, toning the
stomach, giving energy to the liver,
and relieving every symptom of nervO-
usness and depression of spirits. Its
cheering and beneficial effects are high
ly spoken of by thousands, who owe to
it their restoration to health. No re.
storative in the annals of medicine has
attained the same popularity in the
short space of time it has been before
the public, or has won the high en-
tonic. Many other preparations, pur-
porting to be correctives and restora-
tives have been introduced, and have
persisted one by one, while the popular.
| ity Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters con-
tinues to increase, and is now recognize
ed as a standard household medicine.
| The success which attends the use of
the, Bitters evinces at once its virtues in
all cases of debility and disease of the
stomach. Certificates, almost without
number, have been published, attesting
its truly miraculous power in removing
those painful and fearful diseases. And
at this time it seems idle to do more
than call attention to the great remedy
of the age, in order to awaken public
attention to its excellence. 1t is the
only preparation of the kind that is
reliable in all cases, and it is therefore
worthy of the consideration of the
afflicted. 3w3l

FAIR WEEK was heralded as early
as last Saturday by the arrival of a host
of showmen, prize soap and candy ven
doris, and professional peripatetics of
many other genera. These gentlemen
delight in crowd. A large company
of people in the open air is their prom
ised land. Among them they know
they can find the suckers for which
they are angling. With persons who
bite at their bait and get handsomely
taken in we confess to have little sym.
pathy. They are universally trying to
get something for nothing, an under.
taking that may safely be relied on
to result in failure every time, just as all
persons offering inducements for such
an undertaking may be written fools OF
knaves, with little chance of their being
fools,

"MUsCATINE MANUFACTURES IN De-
MAND AT THE EAST.-Ament & Bro.
have received an order for car load Of
wagons to go to Owego, n. y. The
dealer at that place says the wagons
made by Ament & Co., in this city are
better and cheaper than any he can get
at that place. this is certainly turning
the tide of trade, when Western manu-
features are sought to supply the great
Eastern market. 1t is also high but
just testimonial to the fine, and superb
ority of the work turned out by Ament
BrO.'
We cut the above from late MusCa
tine journal, and would rise to explain
that Ament's wagons are appreciated
elsewhere than in the East. Messrs.
iseichert Bros, who are the sole agents
for them in this county, have sold Jo,ty-
fire within a few months, aud are con-
stantly receiving them to supply the
steady demand. There is no better
wagon ia Use anywhere than the Ament,
nor is there better place to buy wa
gou, or any agricultural implement or
machine, than at RcIchert Bros. They
always aim to keep the best and sell the
lowest. All will take notice.

Hon. F. w. PALMER, NJ. c. from the

at the political meeting at Mechanics

good one in every sense of the word.

largely, and horses largest of all. In
fruits the entries were remarkably nu-
