CENTAUR LINIMENT.
M1kpE

There is no pain which the Centaur Lint
ment will not relieve, no swelling it will
not subdue, and no lameness which it will
not cure. This Is strong language, but 1t is
true. Where the parts are not gone, it's ef.
fects are marvellous. 1t has produced more
cues Of rheumatism, neuralgia, lock jaw,
palsy, sprains, swellings, cake-breasts,
scalds, burns, salt rheum, ear ache, ETC., up.
on the human frame, and of strains, SPAWN
gals, ETC., upon animals in one year than
have all other pretended remedies since the
all-healing pain-reliever. Cripples throw
away their crutches, the lame walk, poison
Gus bites are rendered harmless, and the
wounded are healed without a scar. 1t is
no humbug. The recipe is published around
each bottle. 1t is selling as no article ever
before sold, and 1t sells because it does Just
what 1t pretends to do. Those who now suf-
fer from rheumatism, pain or swelling de-
serve to suffer If they will not use Centaur
Liniment. More than 1000 certificates of
remarkable cures, including frozen limbs,
chronic rheumatism, gOut, running tumors,
etc., have been received. We will send a
circular containing certificates, the recipe,
etc., gratis to any one requesting 1t. One
bottle Of the yellow wrapper Centaur Lin
iment is worth one hundred dollars for spav-
ined or sweenied horses and mules, or for
screw-worm in sheep. Stock owners, this
liniment is worth your attention. No fam.
lily should be without Centaur Liniment.

MayO.-s Court.

Eugene O'Connel and William
Englcbert, who assaulted James Cas-
sci, on Saturday last, near the Mayor
Office plead guilty one State case for
assault and battery. and one city case
for the same also to one city case of
intoxication each. O'Connel also
plead guilty to one State and one city
case for assaulting Alex Wigeins the
same day, making total of eight
cases in all against these two parties.
The fine and costs amounted to S143.
James Brown also appeared at said
court for assaulting Thomas Moore
head at the eolorcd festival, Christmas
night. The defendant was ably Dc
Tended by S. A. Forkner; nine wit.
nesses were examined for State and
defense. The evidence showed that
Brown had committed an assault and
battery, although not of a serious
nature. After the argument Of Major
Lyle for the State and Forkner for
the defense, the Mayor assessed the
lowest fine, which, with the costs
amounted to $500
One city case Of concealed weapons

The AIdine

For January, 1875, is duly at hand.
and certainly entitled to the credit ct
being the very best number yet l.
sued of that beautiful publication. In
both pictures and literary matter.
this month, there Is an Infinite variety
and corresponding excellence. Pic
torially, the leading attractions are
"A Daughter of Cleopatria,' after
Vernet- Lecompete, by John S. Davis
an admirable work of art, and supply
ing one of the highest types of the
duskier Oriental beauty; three mag
nifcent views of mountains of the
Delaware Water Gap" illustrating
that picturesque region to fine advant-
age; an attractive full page, also by
Davis, "Flsherman's Luck; Love :
Offices by Siegert, and The Ap-
pointm mt, " by Otto Erdman, two ad-
mirable companion pictures, telling
their stories with life ana vigor;
very striking Silver Full moonlight "
wierdly attractive; fine view of tie
new" Western Union Telegraph Build
ing New York; and an elaboratcly
executed portrait of Miss Margaretta
B. Moore, the popular elocutionist.
Such an array Of pictorial charms is
not often given in enc number, even
by the Aldine.
The literary contents embrace the
following rare collections: An in
structive and enjoyable paper on
"Christmas in London" by Henry
| Morford; one Of the most charminely
| mischevious short stories of the peri
cd, by another OF the new names
which the Aldine is introducing to the
public-evidently Norsewoman,
Emma SUinerne Jarlsen 1--WE should
like to hear somebody pronounce that
an excessive amusing sketch of Stu
dent Life Abroad" by Fcnno Doug
las: valuable peep at THE II stle-
toe;'' continution of the popular serial
Lost Lillian Bracy;;' a most touching
story of primitive New England life,
in Zone Little Puritan by Annette
l.. Noble; pleasant translation, in
the Birthplace of Mozarts Zauber-
flote." by Miss E. G. Gildemeister;
incisive articles of Literature, Music,
the Drama, etc. In ambition, there
are no less than four poems of merit;
A New Year Wish" by Mrs NJ.
F. Butts; Dead Days. by Mrs.
Margaret J, Preston; Abreast with
the Storm" by John Vance Cheney;
and Songs of the Months" by Alice
M. Guernsey. This makes, we repeat,
an issue of equal excellence and varie-
ty, rare even for the Aldinc, and evi
dences the fact that under the new
editorial management, while nothing
is lost in high artistic reputation, the
literary merit of the publication, is
to be kept quite abreast with it.
The Aldine Company has determined
to establish an Art Union, similar to
the we'll known Art Union in Eng
land, and distributes its works of art,
both sculpture and paintings which arc
constantly collecting, among its sub
scribers. Art premiums. valued at
$25, 900, will be distributed amongcach
series of 5000 subscribers. Subscrip-

engaged in Paints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold beaters and
Miners, as they advance in life, are sub

worms, Scald- head, Sore Eyes, Erysipe-

dug up and carried out of the system in
short time by the use Of these Bitters.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms,
lurking in the system of SO many thou
sands, are effectua1y destroyed and re-
moved. No system of medicine, no ver-
mifuges, no anthelminitics will free the
system from worms like these Bitters.
For Female Complaints, in young
or old, married or single, at the dawn OF
womanhood, orthe turn of life, these Ton
ic Bitters display SO decided an influence
that Improvement is soon perceptibIe.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood
whenever you find its impurities bursting
through the skin IN Pimples, Eruptions,
or Sores; cleanse it when you find it OBJ
structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse
it when it is foul; your feelings will tell
you when. Keep the blood pure, and the
health of the system will follow.
