THE ALDINE.
An illustrated Monthly journal, universally
admitted TO be the handsomest period
ical in the World. A representative
and champion of American tast.


The Aldine, while issued with all the reg
ularity, has none of the temporary or time
~ interest characteristic Of ordinary peri-
odicals. 1t Is an elegant miscellany OF pure
light and graceful literature and . collec-
ton OF pictures, the rarest specimen Of ar
tistic skin, in black and white. Although
each succeeding number affords Il esli
pleasure to its friends, the real value and
beauty OF The AldiDe will be most appreoi-
ated after IL has been bound up ut the close
OF the year. While other publications may
claim superior eheapness, rs compared with
rivals Of similar class, the Lldine IL AN un-
ique and original conception-alOne and un.
roached--absolutely without concept -

Go EAST BY WAY OF ST. LOUIs.-In
these days of railroad competition the
wise traveller selects his route before
leaving home. Ia almost every in
stance he desires to reach his destina-
ton as speedily as possible, and for the
accomplishment OF that purpose the
Missouri Pacific Through Line from
the West to the East, via Kansas City
and st. Louis, offers Inducements I'M
surpassed by any other line in the
country. Everything connected with
the Missouri Pacific p. r. is first-class,
and the adoption of the Miller Plat
form and the Westinghouse Air Brake
together with its Pullman Sleepers,
and Reclining Chair Coaches, render
trip over the line perfectly safe and
pleasant. Passengers from all parts OF
the West by taking its express trains
at Kansas City, Lesvenworth, Atehison
and other prominent cities, are landed
n st. Louis at seasonable hours MORN
ing and evening, and in ample time to
make direct connection with all
railroads for every point in the
North, East and South. Partic-
ular Information, with maps, time

The above is fac simiIe of label We
are placing upon s whisky we have sue
ceeded in getting control OF with some
difficulty. All OF the physicians to whom
we have shown it pronounce it superior
to anything yet brought to this market for
medical and family use.
Almost sill writers and emil prac-
ticioners Of medicine admit and recon-
mead whIsky-when of good quality-as
preferable rs 3 medicinal agent to brandy
for various reasons, the most important Of
which is: it is much more likely to be Of
good quality, as its mode of manufacture
is simpler; its action in low fevers as 4
didusive stimulant is equal to brandy in
potency, while it does not produce the
painful burning in the stomach SO often
complained OF when brandy is used; in
staying the waste of tissue of consu mp.
ton Of the lungs, nothing, except it may
be cod liver oil. has yet been found to
equal 1t. The above being true, the diff
ference in price should be taken into con-
sideration, which is quite an item usually
to those who are SO unfortunate As to be
ill. A single trial of our goods we are as
sured will convince the purchaser it is
something superior to anything they ever
used of the kind.

THE COAL INTEREST.
some Good Suggestions by An OId
Citizen.

EDITOR NEws:-Your article in
The NEWS OF the 4th, ''The Coal Inter
est" is, perhaps, of greater Importance
To your city and the country than any
question heretofore submitted. That q
substantial wealth lies at your door in
the the vein of coal which nnderlIes
this portion of the county, is beyond a
doubt, and it only requires a small ef-
fort In the right direction to realize nll
that the most sanguine could antiei-
pate In building up an industry wt ieh
Will furnish to the laborer permanent
employment, and TO capital the means
OF establishing manu- factories in your
city.
Tho effort TO find thick vein Of coal
In this portion of the state, has SO far
proved unsuccessful and Improbable,
and as we have a surface vein which is
easily worked, covering all this portion
OF the county, would 1t not be better to
utilize what we have, ratlirr than
await greater expectations:
Usage county has a permanent
wealth In light vein of coal no better
than our own. Several hundred men
find homes and employment there, pay
ing out the proceeds of their labor for
the products of the soil and necessa-
ries of life. Lyon county has the same
opportunity to furnish labor and
homes for hundreds of families, in
stead of compelling them to seek other
localities for employment.
The GLOW Rot to do it, having beer
sufficiently tested, suppose we adopt
"The movement cure" and ask the NJ.
*. & T. X. w. Co. to build "spIke"
from their station, south OF Neosho
Rapids, two or three miles northeast of
town, where thousands of acres of
choice coal lands lie unprOduetlve.
Coal can be had here in any quantity,
either by stripping or shallow shaft,
and train of cars loaded at these
banks can be drawn to Your city In
one hour, and coal furnished at a price
much less than has been offered from
other localities.
l do not offer these suggestions as
the best plan of "How to do it, but |
am. fully convinced that Lyon county
ought to be, not only the best agricult-
ural county in the state, but that En-
poria, with q little effort, can become
the great central manufacturing city of
the state. Z.
