DHYSICIANS AND DRUGGISTS.

A prominent New York physician lately
complained to Dundas Dick, about his Sad
dalwood Oil Capsulas, stating that some
times they cured miraculously bnt that a
patient Of his had taken them for sometime
without effect. On being informed that
several limitations were made and sold, he
inquired and found that his patient had
been taking capsula ssold in bottles, nd not
DUNDAS DICK s. cos.
What happened to this physician may have
happened to others, and DUNDAS DICK &
CO., take this method of protecting "Oil OF
Sandalwood" from this disrepute.
PHYSICIANS who once prescribe the
Capsulas will CONTINUE TO Do so. for
they contain the PURE OIL in the BEST
AND CHEAPEST form.
OIL OF SANDLEWOOD is fact super
seding every other remedy, sixty Cspsules
ONLY being required to insure a safe and
certain cure in six or eight days. From
no other medicine can this result be had.
DICKS SOFT CAPSULES solve the prob
lem long considered by many eminent ply
sicians, of how 10 avoid the nausea and dis
gust experienced in swallowing, which are
well known TO detraot from, if not destroy,
the good effects Of many valuable remedies.
Soft Capsules ale put up in tin-foil and
neat boxes, thirty in cash, snd are the
only capsules prescribed by Physicians.

You ought to be very proud that you have
such a thriving little village this in your
| county. No doubt you, Mr.. Editor who are SO
well acquainted with our location, do feel just
AMOUNT of pride; but for the information OF
those less fortunate, it may not be amiss to say
few words:
The situation is at the junction of the Oregon
R. II. with the G. P. r. II. This gives us a
commercial advantage, equaledlby few, and ex-
ceed by no towns in this county. The increase
IN the sale of goods during the past three years,
has been yearly gain of fifty per cent. This
information is obtained from our merchants
Mr.. Thomes and Mr.. Pratt-gentlemen of We
| racity and the embodiment Of politenesS. Their
books tell the same story. Their greatest need,
| At this time, is more store room. They cannot,
at present, handle all the goo, they could sell
with larger stores. Both propose building brick
stores in II short time. SIX new frame dwellings
have been erected during the last six months.
We have a school-house that would be a credit
to any town. The amount OF hay, grain and
wool shipped from here, surprises everyone not
acquainted with the fruitiulness of the sur
rounding country We have as successful a
physician as can be found on the coast, yet, to
use one of his expressions, 1.-THE country is SO
dlstressingly healthf"l he gets but little to do.
The Changers are still increasing IN numbers,
aud multiplying their acts of kindness toward
the needy. Yesterday, while passing by II farm,
we saw hfteen or twenty mowers at WORK, to-
| gether with large number of men raklng and
punching up hay. We stopped to inquire the
| cause, and learned that the owner OF 9he field
had very sick wife, suffering with cancer,
and the Grangers learning this at their meeting,
| last Saturday, made arrange ements to meet ano
cut his hay--treasure laid up above, We will
! state, tor the information OF those desrous
of starting Grange, that A. d.
Neher has been appointed District equity Grano
Master for Placer county, and any cOmmunica
tions directed to hlm Will be promptly attended
to. We witnessed public installation OF OF
icers of this lodge. last Saturday. and noticed
chat each one was pledged not to use his position
to influence the political or religious opinion 0
any one. The ceremonies were conducted b.,

DEATH OF AN OLD AUBURNIrE E-Manv people
IN Auburn, will remember James mckinley, and
will regret to hear of his sudden death, which
occurred at his mothers, in Providence, Rhode
island on the evening of the twenty-second of
last month. On that evening as he entered his
home he complained of feeling upwell, and at
once went to bed. In short time afterwards
he answered his mothers inquiries, stating that
he felt better. Before his mother retired she
again inquired but received no answer, and on
examination discovered that he had breathed his
last. He was one of the first settlers of Auburn
coming here in the Spring of 1850, and remained
here until 1866. He a mason by trade, and
most of the brick buildings in this town were
erected by him. In 1866, he went to British
Columbia, where he remained until 1871, when
he came back to Auburn, and after visiting his
numerous friends he returned to the scenes of his
childhood, and has died, as it were, in the arms
that first embraced him, at the age of so year
James Mckinley is spoken Of by all who knew
him as a whole-souled, active, Industrious, and
good -natured man, whose whole life seemed de-
voted to doing good to others, and making ali
around him happy. His numerous friends in
Auburn offer to his aged mother their heartfelt
sympathy in the loss of her estimabe son, and
their much esteemed friend.
