DR.. r. v. PIERCE, Buffalo, N. Y: Dear
Sri have not words to express my graft
tude to you for your advice and assistance
in my case. There is not one who has used
your medicines since they have been
brought here, but that can say with me they
have been greatly benefited. Since l have
been SO helped by its use, six or seven
around me have left off all doctors and other
medicines, and now use it in their families,
after being cured of the same disease as
mine. You don't know what wonder it
created in our city, by its restoring my sis
ter wrote you about, for she had been UNI
der the care of three of our best doctors,
but could not sit up but for a few minutes at
one time. begged of her to try your medi-
cines, and before she had used half the bot
ties she could go all around the yard, and
has now just come home from visit five
miles away.

The second Musical Festival of Cincin-
natl had most encouraging beginning.
Five thousand people, among whom were
the patrons and lovers of art in the city, as
well as many from distant parts Of the coun-
try, were present at the opening concert. In
spite Of the unwelcome rain, which at one
time threatened to render the completion
OF the programme impossible, not only
pleasure but genuine enthusiasm was ere
ated by the splendid manner in which the
great orchestra and the massive chorus per-
formed the duties assigned to them. Mr..
Theodore Thomas and Mr.. Otto Singer are
again TO be thanked for the genius and pa
tient labor which have given this tribute to
art and Cincinnati may be congratulated on
being the place where 1t is possible to hold
Musical Festival.
There have been twelve distilleries and
rectifying houses seized in Milwaukee and
vicinity. Four of these have applied to the
United States Court, and secured permission

the custody Of the United States Marshal.
Some Of the distillers whose property has
been seized threaten to bring suits for
damages.
