Dragging Out Existeuce

The nervous, weakly invalid does not enjoy
ife, but merely "drags out existence as the
phrase is. United for the active pursuits of life
and incapable Of partaking of its pleasures, to
which health alone can give zest; dlsinclincd to
social intercourse, and prey to melancholy, the
yaletudinarian is indeed object of pity. Yet
there is nothing in all this that cannot be remedied
by that genial Alternative tonic and nervine, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters which supplies deficient
stamina, braces the nervo system, and ovcrcomes
those bodily irregularities to which nervous weak
ness Is most frequently attributable. Diseases OF
the kidney and bladder, imperfect digestion and
uterine traubless fertile sOurse of debility.
Their eradication however, becomes matter OF
certainly when Hostetters Stomach ,Btters are
systematically used for that purpose, The Bitters
likewise annihiIate and prevent fever and ague and
other debihtating febrile complaints Of mslarial
nature.

DR.. Prices FLAvoRINGs are rapidly
growing in the popular favor, as it is be-
coming known that they are produced by
extraction from the fruit carefully selected,
not made up with chemical posions. Each
flavor is from the true fruit and aromatics,
free from poisonous oils and strong, rank
taste. They are natural flavors, obtained
by new process, which give the most
delicate and grateful taste. They are OF
great strength. and bottles contain halt
more than those purporting to give the
same quantity. We conscientiously
commend DIR, Prices havors as being all

A New ART A new method OF
ornamenting has recently been introduced
to the public called ''Decalcomanie, or
Transfer Pictures. 1t consists of instantly
transferring pictures which have been
printed on paper in cOlors, to any article
one may wish to ornament, 4 large class
Of the designs, such rs Flower and Fruit
pieces, Autumn Leaves, Moss Rosebuds,
ferns. Vines, Antique Heads, Cupids, Eni-
hlems, Medailions, Landscapes, Animal
Scenes, Nc, are particularly sought after
by ladies for ornamenting furniture, work
boxes, vases. lamp shades, flower pots, sand
articles Of china, glass, wood, silk, ivory.
marble, plated ware, tinware, &c.
These pictures are designed by the most
skillful European artists, and are printed
on prepared paper in many colors and
various designs: they may be instantly
transferred to any article SO to initiate
the most beautiful painting The dir
ections for transferring are very plain, and
the art is easily acquired, so that one may
become an expert even after few hours
practice.
BY this process the cheapest articles are
frequently ornamented with bits of land
scape or floral decoration that could not bt
painted by hand without increasing thu
the value Of the article. The manufacturer,
of these pictures, Messrs. j. L. Patter

Sorry the City Has Won.

Most people believe that the Union
Square suit against the people of this city
were a merely speculative suit, gotten up
by Bracket & Waite; that the case was
their case. and that the man Ruch was a
very disinterested party; that Bracket &
Waite hired the use of his name, and also
paid for the editorials which, from time to
time, have appeared 10 the Union, urging
the city authorities to pay $4,000 or So
600 for a quit claim from Ruch, etc., etc.
The city authorities didn't think much
of the advice of the representative jour
nal of an enlightened community" but d.
rccted City Attorney Gest to fight the suit
through, and he has done so, and won the
case. And now the Union laments that
the suit was won. The people do moi
think the Union represents anybody but
those who pay for the use of its columns

A Terror to Evil Doors.

Magistrate Pinkley is deserving of COM
mendation for the severe fines imposed up
on the roughs who resisted and assailed
the police at Mueller's saloon, though the
general impression is that the case was Of
so aggravating nature that he ought to
have fined them to the extent of the law
and imprisoned them until the last cent
was paid. Still, he has made his court q
terror to evil doors, and in this he is to be
commended.
1t might as well be understood by the
roughs, rowdies, thieves, pimps, black
guards, etc.. who infest this town, that
they will be compelled to obey the law.
A temporary advantage may be obtained,
occasionally, oyer the police, as was the
case by the roughs at Mueller's; and those
who sympathize with the roughs may
hinder the police, as they did there, but
the advantage will be only temporary. Ii
Is unfortunate for the police that. on such
occasions, the good, law-abiding, law-lov'
ing, orderly citizens are at home attending
to their business, while the whisky rougti
and their sympathizers hang about the
saloons and hinder the police, if any row
occurs.
But this can not last. The police will
soon learn to use their clubs and Their
pistols when resisted, and argue the ques
ton afterwards. When an officer is hin.
dered or resisted in the discharge of hi;
duty it is no time to argue; the first thing
is to use the club efectually, by breaking
the law resister's arm, leg, or head-if tina
can't be done use the pistol, and use it il
dead earnest. The world will be all thu
better for the death of some such fellows
as we have in Rock Island, and the court
and juries will justify the killing of an.
man who resists an officer in the discharg
of his lawful duty. The police must con
quer this lawlessness or give plac to mel
who can do it.
