OUR merchants report themselves

In the nearer and equally accessible
places, the large aud complete stocks
whiclS make the ability to fill orders
specifically upon short notice are not
found; and slow returns and heavy
treights from more distant places turn
the scale against them. Chicago is
their choice. Chicago they need, wait

THE foundations for the piers and
abutmeEts of the Southwestern railroad
driven, and the driver moved to the
east bank to set the piles for the long
trestle work which makes the approach
to the abutment on this side.
Many persons have gone from here to
see the pile driver at work and have
been disappointed by finding it being
moved from one point to another and
unemployed. 1t will probably be estab

PAY DAY.-The monthly pay on the
work of the Iowa Southwestern being
delayed from the regular pay day on the
l5lh of last nunth has caused CONSIDER
ahie comment on all sides, and particu-
lariy among the employees OF the COM
pany. There has been no demonstra-
lions of any fear that the money would
not be forthcoming, but the men had
earned and they wanted it; and the
community had been used to its period-
zeal Influx and circulation, aud looked
forward 10 it a. an event.
The cause of the delay has been eX-
piained; its extent was limited by Il
letter to Superintendent Kinney to ten
days from the 18th ult 1t is thought
that it will now be deferred until next
week and two months wages paiu at

Those evening bells those evening bells,
How many a tale their music tells
and, with any reference to our school
bell, the poet would not have gone on
to speak about anything sweet as having
been the subject OF the tale of the bell,
but would have said that the harsh and
.liscordant jangle, while it distorted our
faces and set our teeth upon edge, called
up thoughts Of pots and kettles and all
the base metals in most musicless com

Be Guided by what YOU Know

There is an old proverb which says,
"Experience isthe safest guide. To this
guide the sick and ailine naturally turn
when casting about for the means of
relief. They inquire what a medicine
has done for others, before they adopt it
themselves. OF all the remedies and
preventives in use, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters meets the test most triumphantly,
and hence its immense popularity and
vast sales. Tue sufferer from indiges-
ton is sure to find some one among his
friends who has been cured of that
alment by the famous vegetable slom-
achic. The victim of fever end ague,
liver complaint, constipation, nervous
prostration, or general debility. has only
to make inquiry in the neighborhood
what this standard restorative has effect
ed in cases similar to his own. In the
published testimony to its merits he will
find volume of proofs of its sanitary
properties, which it is impossible for his
common sense to resist. He tries it, and
the effect it p' oduces on hls system adds
another to the host Of witnesses in its
favor. Thus, its reputation founded on
facts, not assertions, continually grows
and spreads. Charlatans and impOstors,
some of them mere local tricksters, and
others who take u somewhat wider
range. attempt to thrust into the hands
and down the throats Of invalids, their
haphazard connections, as substitutes for
the tonic which for so many years has
been medicinal staple Throughout the
United States, Spanish America, Can.
ada, and the West Indies, but only
succeed to a very limited extent. In
this reasoning age, the people, having
ascrrtained what is really deserving of
their confidence, decline running after
strange gods.'
