"Now is the Winter of Our Discon.
tent made Glorious
by the arrival Of beautiful spring,
with its balmy days, warm showers,
green fields and budding trees. But
with all this beauty and brightness
comes work. The gardens must be
made, lawns cleared up, house
cleaning, painting, papering, white
washing, &C., to be done. For as
Nature awakens to new life and puts
on fresh livery, so we, naturally,
initiate her in this; and what more
fitting example could we follow than
hers ?
Now, such being the case, it is a
matter of the greatest Importance to
know how best to do this, and where
to procure the necessary materials Of
the best quality, and at the same
time at the least cost. That 'the
best is the cheapest in the end" is
fact accepted and acknowledged by
all. First it is the best at the begin
ming, lasts longer, costs no more for
the labor to apply than poor mate
rials, and lastly, there is very little
difference in the first cost.
lam speaking now of paints in
particular. Do you want to paint
white? There is no better or cheap
er made than the Phoenix Brand of
Eckstein Hills & Co., for which l
am special agent,
It has now been tried in this city
and county for ten years, and aeUer
for once, has it failed to give entire
satisfaction. And I do firmly be-
lieve and assert there is no better
lead made. For colored paints, for
cottages, &C., we have our own
colored paints, which, for durability
and cheapness, far excel all liquid or
chemical paints. They never fade or
peel, and retain their lustre for years
Zinc Paint, Graining Colors, Var
nishes, and Brushes to use them, al
ways on hand, of the best quality,
and at the lowest price. So much
for paints.
Now, after painting, the smoky
walls must be papered and decorated;
whitewash wont do, it rubs of, and
soon looks as bad as ever. Ihave the
largest and best variety Of Wall Pa
per ever brought to this city, which
must be sold at the lowest prices.
Now this is saying a good deal, butif
you think of papering, don't buy un-
til you look at my samples, and you
will be convinced that this statement
is true. But doyou ask where is this
place ? Where are such bargains to
be had ? And where only are the
best goods kept? Why! Where
else than at McCulloch's old and
reliable Drug Store! Established SO
years ago ! Come and see.

MONROE, MICH, Sept. %, 1874.
Dr.. WmFoRD, l42 st. Clair street, Toledo,
Ohio. Dear Sir:-When one man confers
favor upon another it is only right that the
recipient of the favor should, in some appro-
pirate way, express his sense Of obligation.
This is more emphaiically the case when the
favor has involved the saving of life and the
conferring of happiness.
For many years my wife has been the VIC
tim of neuralgia, dyspepsia and other dis
tressing complaints. obtained the aid Of
physicians at home and at distance, sparing
neither expense, pains nor time in my efforts
to have her health restored. 1t was all in
vain. Although obtaining temporary relief,
permanent cure seemed impossible, and she
became more and more emaciated from in
tense suffering. She was at length complete
ly prostrated. Having been informed Of your
success in the treatment of chronic diseases,
obtained your aid, and the result has been the
complete restoration of Mrs. Brown to health.
She is now able to give personal supervision
to domestic affairs and enjoys better health
than she has since childhood.
Mrs. Brown wishes me to express to you
her gratitude for what you have done for her,
and cheerfully Join with her in thanking
you for the inestimable favor you have con-
ferred.
You are at liberty to use this letter as you
think proper, Yours, very gratefully,
ALEXIS 3. Brown.

After some half dozen Intellectual attem
to gain a social interview with DIR. Frank
Creager, we were, strange to say, successful
last week in obtaining an audience, or we
should certainly have been induced by an
other disappointment to drop him a postal
card. The Doctor is such genial and inter-
esting society that we immeasurably enjoy a
social chat, but really his dental room seems
as if it were never free for five minutes.
Thoroughly appointed with every requisite
and rendered thrice agreeable with profuse
display of fine arts and Horticultural rarities, it
is truly pleasant to spend only limited inter-
view with him and the charming little
Canary songster that contributes its sweetest
melodies to soothe the necessary pangs incur
red by operations. We found him neVerthe-
less busily engaged preparing very fine set
Of teeth, surrounded with every appliance the
profession can devise. If you desire a tooth
drawing, fixing or filling, full set putting in
place, or any other dental operation, by all
means first interview DR.. Creager if you de-
sire satisfaction.
