GOOD MEDICINE rs,

ga number Of our citizens, former Penn
syIvanians, no doubt remember when DR..
Green, A Prussian by birth, commenced the
practice Of medicine in Lancaster, Pa, fifteen
or more years ago. His prescriptions COM
pounded by himself Of roots and herbs, soon
found their way into every household whore
he was known; their curative Qualities afford
ing relief and strength to al who used them.
Wishingto return to his native country, he sold
his formulas and the exclusive right to his
medicines to party under whose control
they have since been made and sold in the
Eastern states. Believing them to be pecu-
liarly adapte TO the west and south, the pro-
pristors are now introducing them here.'

THE CONCERTS given at the court
house last Thurday and Friday even
ings by the Knoxville Chorus Glass
were not so largely attended as they
should have been, nor so largely as
such concerts have been usually here
tofore. The performances were cred
liable to the Glass; the Class Is a
credit to the town, and should have
every reasonable encouragement that
can be given it. It's choruses were es-
pscially we'll executed.
