IEOOELAND's GERMAN TONIC.

Was compounded for those not inclined to eX-
trcmc btters, and is intended for, use in cases
when some alcoholic stimulant is required in co =
ncction with the tonic properties of the 1iitters.
Each bottle of the Tonic contains one bottle of
the Bitters, combined with PURGE SANTA CRUZ
RUM, aud favored in such a manner that the en-
trrmc bitterness of the bitters is overcome, form
ng preparation highly agreeable and pleasant
to the palate, and containing the medicinal vr-
80 per Bottle, which many persons think too
high. They must take into consideration that
the stmulant used is guaranteed to be of pure
quality. \ poor article could be furnished at a
cheaper price, but is il not better to pay little
more and have good artclcl Amedicinal pre-
paration should contain none but the best ingre-
dents and they who expect to obtain cheap
compound, and be benefited by it will most GER
tainlv be cheated.

1t is not necessary to take n handful Of these
Pills to produce the desired effect ; two of them
act quickly and powerfully, cleansing the Liver,
Stomach and Bowels of all impurities. The
principal ingredient is Podophylm, or the Alco-
hOlic Extract OF Mandrake, which is by many
times more powerful, acting aud searching than
the Mandrake itself. Its peculiar action is upon
the Liver, cleaning il speedily from all obstruc-
tions, with all the power of Mercury, yet free
from the Injurious results attached 10 the use of
that mineral.
For all diseases, in which the use of a cathar-
tic is indicated, these pills will give entire salts
faction in every case. They never fail
In cases of Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia and ex-
treme costiyeness, DIR. Hollands German Bit
tiers or Tonic should be used in connection with
the Pills. The tonic effect of the Bitters or To-
mic builds up the system. The biters or Tonic
purihes the Blood, strengthens the Nerves, regu-
lates the Liver, and gives strength, energy and
vigor.
Keep your Bowels active with the Pills, and
tone up the system with Bitters or Tonic, and no
disease can retain the hold or even assail you.
Recollect that it is DR.. HOOFLAND'S GER
MAN Remedies that are so universally used and
highly recommended; and do not allow the
Druggist TO induce you to take anything else
that he may say is just as good, because he
makes larger profit On it. These Remedies will

DEATH OF GEoReE A. FRIcK, EsQ.-We regret
to learn that George A. Frlck, ESQ.,, well and
| favorably known In this place, died at Danvie,
on Sunday of last week. The Montour A,nsricgn
says:
"Our community was startled, on last Sunday
morning, to learn of the sudden death of this
cstimabe citizen who, up to the very moment of
his demise, had been enjoying more than ordina-
rily good health for one so advanced in years.
On Sunday morning he arose early, rs was his
custom, aud started for walk to his lots, which
lay short distance below town. lie was seen
to pass down market St., apparently without any
ailment and when within a few steps of his dcs-
tnation was seized by the hand of death and al
most instantly, without a struggle or any indica-
ton of suffering, he died. He was carried into
the house of Thomas Whitaker and medical as
sistance Immediately summoned, but without
avail. Geo. A. Fricli died as he had lived, in the
full enjoyment of busy life. The day previous
to his death he had ridden a long distance on
business returning home in the evening we'll, as
he expressed himself, but q little tired. Before
retiring for the night one of the members of his
family stepped into his rooin to ask after his
health and he said he felt psyy well. These are
the last words he is known to have uttered. His
physical mechanism was simply worn ont by long
and active service. MIR. Frick WAS so well known
/ in this and adjoining counties as to render any
eulogistc remarks unnecessary. lie was born III

removed to Northumberland and thence to sun
bury, when he was appointed Register ana Re.
corder OF Northumberland county by Gov. Sny
der in 1910. In his early youth the subject of
our sketch had no advantages of education. His
mind was fitted for the responsible position he
vas destined TO fill by pouring over books at
night, which he perchased by savings from his
labor in the daytime. He was thoroughly self
made man. In 1918, when Columbia county was
FORMED from portion of Northumberland, he
was appointed by Gov. Simon Snyder, the first
Prothonotary and removed TO Dauyllc, at that
time the county seat.

pRowHED.-On Monday afternoon oar citizens
were thrown into wild state of excitement, by
the cries Of several young boys, who cane ruG-
ming down the canal, giving the alarm that
young boy named Daniel Longer, aged about ID
years, 4 hosticr At the Keystone Hotel, was
drowning. It appears that he went into lhe
canal to battle, and being poor swimmer, tie
attempted TO cross the canal when he sunk under
the waters the young boys thought that he was
only liying, dil not at first give the alarm, but
after he disappeared for the last time, they gave
the alarm, and soon number of men were on
the ground. After searching for him, for about
an hour and a half his body was found, about
fifty feet from where it had disappeared, Esquire
Eby, summoned an inquest, and they rcnlSrei 4
verdict in accordance with the facts in the case.
The deceased was buried by the Overseers Of the
Poor Of our Borough Ssli5tSgrops Tribune.
