MAGIC ell.


ATHENS, Tenn, Sept. 26, 1869.
Mr.. REENE-Dear Sir:
] wish to say word for your Pain Killing
Magic Oh.
have been = great sufferer from that swful
disease, Sick Headache. 1t generally attacks me
early In the morning, grows in intensity all day,
all night, and all the next day. and generally,
though not always, goes Of during the second
night. 1t comes upon me At least oncs a month
And often two or three times, always combining
me TO my bed for about thirty six to forty hours,
and pAiiiing me SO rribly that IL seems as If my
head would burst open In spite of skuIl and
every thing else. A person's hand W. uId be
thrown entirely of by i:s throbbing. In short
suffered agony indeEeribable. Our best Physi-
clans failed In my case, and have used most
the opulAr remedies sold which are rceo pm mend
ed as ''EHre TO cure just such cases. but they not
only failed to cure me, but seemed to aRgras ate
my situation. q few months ago, fotlSp.,eIv
obtained n bottle of your Pam Killing Marie
Oil, and as you claim "is works like a chrrn %
ben feel my old plague coming on, use the
Magic Oh both externally and Internally, freely
and faithfully, and now do not even have TO
stop my work, but 60 shout my business a.
usual.
assure you one fellow man ba, been he.e-
lifted By your'invention, and for which feel
grateful. May God reward you. In my house
and family, your Magic Oil 10 as Indispensable
o. -Four. hope my letter may be the means of
letting other poor sufferers know the
virtues OF yeur Magic OH, and you may use
my n anne % referenosi IL you choose.
Gratefully, I an yours. dc.

AN EXCITING CATTLE HUNT IN PRoVI-
DENCE.-On Thursday and Friday the good city
of Providence was the scene of an unusual de-
gree of excitement. About hundred wild
Texas cattle, driven from pasture to the
slaughter house on Thursday morning, STAN
peded in most approved style, and before any
effort could be eXerted TO stop them, had scat
tered all over the Ninth ward. Knocking down
everybody and everything they encountered,
the beasts, probably more frightened than
furious, broke into gardens and lots, clearing
fences and walls in their fight, and making
with all possible speed for the open fields. The
residents for some little time were perfectly
panic-stricken, and rushing into houses and
stores, locked themselves in with the greatest
possible dispatch. Fortunately the streets were
quite cleared before any one was seriously in
lured, though one or two children were
knocked down and slightly bruised. After
chasing the equine fugitives for a season,
il was decided that the only way to recover
them was to shoot them, and the drivers accord
lngly inaugurated regular hunt throue bout
the rest of the day. A little wild shooting
characterized the commencement of proceedings.
and one or two bullets were fired into dwelling
houses in close proximity TO the residents. How.
ever, nobody was hurt. By Thursday night
seventeen of the brutes were dispatched, and the
next morning the work was continued, several
amateur sportsmen joining in the chase One
of these shot a dozen on his own account.
Others were more or less successful, and by night
the entire drove had been either killed or can
tured. Butchers followed up the game, and rs
fast as they were shot, bled them and hauled
them to the slaughter house. Quiet now reigns
again in Providence, so far as the cattle are con-
cerned, but the people have not yet got over the
excitement OF their two days intramural wild
beast hunt.-PrOU. journal
