Among the several articles in late
Wmnebago City Press, copied from
the ADVANCE, one is credited to the
jackson Republic. This will tickle
the editor of the Republic to see him
self quoted for once in proper syntax
and correct composition generally, but
we can't give that item to Jackson
county. That human skeleton was
found in No! les. We are determined
to lead Jackson in the quality and in
terest of news as well us in the ability
and interest of newspapers, and we
therefore make this correction. If the
Republic wants the credit of Il first
class sensation, let him get up one in
his own county. For instance, let him
sacrifice himself and have his own
skeleton found on the prairie.
The Sioux City Journal speaks Of a
''large, masculine looking female, WHO
has been soliciting aid for the grass
hopper sufferers of Mobiles county,
Minn.." in that city, and warns the
public that she is an imposter. We
understand that she is, or was, the
wife of a man who lives near Hersey,
in this county. She is, of course, an i'm
poster, and has no authority, any more
than common beggar. to ask aid.

DR., schenek,s Standard Remedies.

The standard remedies for all diseases Of the
lungs are ScHENCK's PULMoNIc SYRUF, ScHENCK's
SEA WEED Tonic, and ScHENCK's MANDRAKE PILLS,
and, if taken before the lungs are destroyed, a
speedy cure is effected.
TO these three medicines DR.. j. ScHENcK. of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of Pulmonary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter
in the lungs nature throws it off by easy ex-
pectoration, for when the phlegm or matter il
ripe slight cough will throw it off, the patient
| has rest and the lungs begin to heal
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do this, Schen
ck's Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
must be freely used to cleanse the stomach ant
| liver. Schenck's Mandrake Pills act on the liver
removing all distractions, relax the gall bladder
the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon reley
| ed.
Schenck's Sea Weed Ton:cis gentle stimulan
and Alternative: the alkali of which it composed
mixes with the food and prevents souriDg, l
assists the digestion by toning up the stomach to
healthy condition, SO that the food and the Pull
monte syrup will make good blood; then the lung
heal and the patent will surely get well if care
| taken to prevent fresh cold.
All who wish to consult DR.. SChenck, either pei
sonally or by letter. do at his principle Office
