Probably never before in the whole history of

Through long series Of years, and among most
of the races of men it has risen higher and higher
in their estimation, as it has become betterk nown
Its uniform character and power to cure the va

made it known as reliable protector against
them. While adapted to milder forms OF disease
and to young children, it Is at the same time the
most effectual remedy that can be given for lnclp
lent consumption, and the dangerous affections
of the throat and lungs. As a provision against
sudden attacks of Group. it should be Kept on
hand in every family, and indeed as all are some
times subject to colds and coughs, all should be
provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption Is thought IN.

MISCELLANEOUS NOTICES.


The Chicago papers report over seven thou
sand miles of railway built during the last
year. VI these the completion of the Bur-
lington, Cedar Rapids and Minnesota, under
the auspices of the Banking House of Henry
Clews q Co., is the most conspicuous for rapid
completion, and for the standing which it has
Obtained in every money centre.
IL promises at no distant day to become as
good stock in the market as the famous Chica-
90, Burlington and Quincy Road, of which it
is but a northwest DETECTION. Running into
this road at Burlington, Mr.. James F. Joy has
given traffic guarantee as President of the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, whereby
this road invests fifty per cent. of the gross
earnings proceeding from the Burlington, Ce-
dar Rapids and Minnesota Railway, over the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy.
These earnings are getting to be so import
ant, that no less than two other great lines
eastward contemplate like guarantee. 1t is
one of the best evidences of the prosperity of
this road, that James F. Joy and other railway
men of like position buy these bonds by the
earnings of their respective roads. Railway
men are not apt to invest in any other than
first class roads, Such is the confidence of
Mr.. Clews in this security, that he offers to
rebuy the bonds at the figure given for them.
1t is expected that when the spring trade
opens, the Bonds of this road will advance to
90 IL to 90. The present figure is 80, and in
terest, May and November 1, yielding 9 IL
per cent interest, secured by traffic guaran-
tee of such railways as the Chicago, Burling-
ton and Quincy, repurchased by Henry Clews
& Co., and being completed road, the only
direct route from st. Louis and st. Paul, and
the best route from Chicago TO the same. Those
who desire security equally as good as Gov
ernments, will do well to convert them into
Burlingtons.
Henry Clews & Co. express their confidence
in this road by treating it even better than
governments, for while they could not obligate
themselves to buy government three months
hence at any established figure, they will do
so with Burlingtons.
These bonds are for sale by
w. H. Wood & Son, Swan & Barrett Henry
P. Wood, Henry M. Payson, and by most of the
banks Of Portland, OF whom maps, pamphlets
