If VEGETINE will relieve pain, cleanse, purify
and cure such diseases, restoring the patient to
perfect health after trying different physicians,
many remedies, suffering for years, is It not con-
curedP why is this medicine performing such
great curpsg 1t works in the blood, in the cir
BIood Purifier. The great source OF disease origi-
mates in the blood; and no medicine that does not
any inst claim upon public attention. When the
blood becomes nfeless and stagnant, either from
irregular diet, from any other cause, the YEGE-
TINE will renew the blood carry on the putrid hu.
mors cleanse the stomach, regulate the Bowels and
impart tone Of Yigor TO the whole body. The con-
Tiction is, in the public mind well IS In the med
ical profession, that the remedies supplied by the
Vegetable KiRgdon are more safe, more successful.
in the cure Of ditease, than mineral medicines.
VEGETINE Is composed of roots, oarks and herbs,

an infant. In Scrofula the VEGETINE has per-
formed wonderful cures, where many other rene
dies have failed, will be seen by the following

SWALLOWING THE PILL.
The "GaloetI'" Grub Bill-The Verdict to
Stand,

1t seems if the verdict in the Legislative feed
bill case will remain undisturbed, as there were
no exceptions noted during the trial, and no mo-
ten for . new trial has been entered since-the
four days limit for the same having expired.
What gives color TO that supposition also is the
fact that CampbeIl's counsel yesterday notified

giant bills presented BY Witnesses for both sIdes.

would be entitled TO vote, and proceeded to call
the names Of the scholars from list which he
had prepared. Mr.. Davis and another gentle
man, whose name we failed to learn, were selected

tOrily. When the result was announced IL was
aEcertatned that Miss Mary E. Kealey, most
beautiful and amiable young lady, had been
elected almost unanimously, receiving all the
votes cast but six, and accordingly she was the
recipient Of many hearty congratulations. The
Maids OF Honor selected were Miss Annie Clark,
Miss Maggie Walsh, Miss Eliza Hart and Miss
Matte Gartrell, all handsome and ccomplished
young ladies. After the election the Professor
announced that the May ball would take place

lungs are SCHRECKs PULMoNIc SYRUP,
ScHESCK's Sawed Tonic and ScHENcK' g
MANDRAKE PILLS, and, If taken before the lungs
are destroyed, q speedy cure is effected.
To these three medicines DR.. ]. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unriyalled success In the
treatment Of pulmonary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter
in the lungs; nature throws 1t of by an easy ex-
T when me s P0Ieg O q %2 nssbs
has rest and the lungs begin TO heal.
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup TO do this,
Weed Tonic must be freely used to cleanse the
stomach and liver. ScheRck's Mandrake Pills
act on the liver, removing all distractions relax
the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the
liver is soon relieved.
Schenck's Ses-Weed Tonic is gentle stimulant
and Alternative; the alkan Of which it is COM
posed mixes with the food and prevents souring.
1t assists the digestion by toninR up the stomach
to Q healthy condition, so that the food and the
Pulmonic Syrup viii make good blood; then the
lungs heal and the patient Will surely get well If
care is taken to prevent fresh cold.
