Stop THAT CoUGH. The presence Of
any irritating and distressing cough, should
warn any one of the certain consequences
to follow, and should also bring to their
minds that Browns Bronchials are sure
relief. No preparation in the market is a
more reliable, and at the same time, a
pleasant cure for all affections of the
throat. Coughs. colds, bronchitis, and
even asthma yields readily to this pleasant
remedy Mr. Brown, the manufacturer

Takes II All pank

Before election, over the river, the Ga
Eette accused Mr. Rohlfs, the peoples
candidate for county treasurer, with dis
honesty In connection with some irregular
or improper act connected with some note,
IN the German Insurance Co.
Now that the election is over and Mr..
Rohlfs is elected, the Gazette takes it all
back and says:
1t is only fair to say that on the face
OF the statement in the report there is
nothing to Justify suspicion of improprie-
ty or illegahty. This explanation is made
without the knowledge of Mr. Rohlfs, and
without solicitations of his friends, solely
to correct an Inference drawn from mis-
apprehension fthe facts.

know, was the Apostle of Germany, Arch.

born in Devonshire, England, of a noble
family, in $50 A. u. His name was Win
fred. From the age of five years his chief
delight was to hear the conversation OF
pious men. From 10 years of age he was
educated in the monastery Of Escancester,
or Exeter, and was all his life devoted to
works Of piety. He felt himself called to
preach the Gospel among those who had
not received its light, and in TIC A. d. he
visited Thuringia, Hesse and Saxony for
that purpose, and where his apostolic la.
boris we're very successful.

Not Allowed

The Board of Supervisors did not allow,
or even call up the Bloomington excursion
bills. The attempt to plumber the county
treasury for the benefit of free lunchers
may probably be considered u failure. Our
advice to Messrs, Don, Warner, Jarvis,
Kenworthy, Haverstiek, McElherne &
Company is To take up a subscription
among those who ate the cake, drank the
wine, smoked the cigars, and rode in the
hacks, and pay up the balance of their
bills.
BY the way-how would it do to send
the balance of the bills to the Moline City
Council, which body was represented at
Bloomington, on Beardsleys spree, and
whose city officials helped eat the dinner,
drink the wine, etc, here? If the com
mittees could only get John Gould and
Geo. Ninton to promise as well as they did
on the pamphlet, and perform as little,
they would probably get the money some
time during the next century.
