FINE CARRIAGES. Rock Island cannot
be said to be behind the smartest of cities
in the line of fine displays of carriages as
one can be convinced by calling upon Mr..
5. b Stoddard at the carriage rooms OF
the Moline Wagon Company on Market
Square The very suave way in which
Mr.. StOddard can exhibit his stock Of fine
carriages elegant buggies, pleasure and
express wagons, marks him as thoroughly
posted in everything on wheels, from the
Deacon's old one horse shay to the elegant
equipment Of the large stock under his
supervision. To think Of Stoddard is to
have in mind his handsome turnouts, and
the next best thing is to call and see him,
His information is not like Lord Hawley's
on the back pay steal for he is willing to
tell all about it. But, seriously, our peO-
pie may well be proud of the elegant dis
play in carriages at.these rooms, consider
ing they are home manufacture and up to
eastern standard The Moline Wagon
Company has done, in opening these
rooms in this city, just what every manu-
facturer in this vicinity should do Moth
ing speaks better for the energy and en-
terprise Of mandatory than large and
complete display OF their goods.

Mynheer GrOOf's Flying Machine.

Mynheer Groof, a sanguine Flemish
gentleman, believing that he had penc-
trated the secret of new locomotive, an
nounced the other day to the denizens of
Brussels, Belgium, that he proposed to
fly. The day announced for the feat was
Sunday. Mynheer Groof had invented a
new and very ingenious pair of wings,
with what device of springs and balance
the world will probably never know. The
only practical difficulty with them was
that they could not raise him from the
ground, and this task was allotted to a
balloon. In other phrase, Mynheer Groof,
having been elevated, proposed to con-
tinue elevated, and not only that, but to
use his wonderfully ingenious wings with
locomotive intent.
. The day came, and the man. Take the
crowd for granted, as tits no great trouble
to gather mob in any city under the sun
you have only to gaze fixedly at a
weather vane or into shop window, to
find yourself in five minutes the center Of
a mob intent on gazing also, and gazing
longer and more intently the less they
see.
Having been lifted to the very humble
elevation of three feet, Mynheer Groof
called his wings into requisitiOn. They
happCu WHulys lHeTt was CLICK OF
springs and tug of fiber; but this Flemish
Ikaros, unlike him of the legend (who
was borne sunward till the wax melted,
and then had further to drop than his
Flemish imitator), did not rise. That he
might have remained poised three feet in
air until this day, had not the principle of
gravitation interfered to spoil beautiful
experiment, is an obvious conclusion
hut inst at this sta~a that pvall. noun,
stumbling block of aerostatists asserted
its supremacy, and Mynheer Groof
dropped face down and prone on the
ground. Nor was this failure of an am
bitiOn for high elevation the worst of the
case. The mob, as mobs will sometimes,
itself as swindled and Mynheer
Groof as having obtained attention under
false pretenses. The poor Fleming was
stoned for his pains, and would have been
slain, but for the opportune Interference of
the police.-N. Y. Post.

Suggestions for Summer.

tits Of great Importance that the system should
be in a vigorous condition when the hot weather
comu ences. The effects OF a high temperature
upon an enfeebled FRANC are always more or less
disastrous. The loss Of substance and the declen-
sion of nervous power, occssioned by excessive
heat, can only be compensated by the active,
healthful, and regular exercise of all the bodily
functions by which the waste of nature is replen-
ished and the vital energies renewed. The great
utility OF Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as q means
OF tonirg, invigorating and regulating the organs
of the body, Is universally acknowledged. As a
tonic 1t stimulates the tagging appetite and accel-
crates digestion; as rrectve 1t neatralizes acid
ity of the stomach and relieves 1stnlency; as an
Alternative and mid aperient 1t regulates the liver
and the bowels; as an anodyne 1t promotes tram
quill sleep; as a wholesome stimulant IT imparts
frmness and elasticity to the relaxed and trem-
bling nerves, and as a blood depurent 1t purifes
the vital stream. The value of such . specific to
the weak and debiitated is beyond all estimate.
To invalds wilted down by the sultry heat of mid
summer, 1t is as refreshing and vitalizing as the
cool night dew to the sun-scorched flowers. Com
posed Of vegetable elements only, with basis Of
pure dffusive stimulant, 1t is safe and paatable
well as medicinal. In fever and sgue districts, and
wherever the natural elements are conducive to
epidemic disease. 1t is considered the best safe
guard against malarious infection. and the speedi-
est remedy for Intermittent md remittent fevers.
