Oar Sir-I had suffered from Catarrh In
an aggravated form for about twelve years
and for several years from Bronchial trouble
Tried many doctors and things with no last
ing benefit In May, ~, becoming nearly
worn out with excessive Editorial labors on

three inside of nine days. In the September
following, l improved sufficiently to be able
to be about, though in q very feeble state.
NV Bronchial trouble remained, and the
Catarrh was tenfOld worse than before. Ey-
cry effort for relief seemed fruitless. l
seemed to be losing ground daily. /
continued in this feeble state, raising blood
almost daily until about the first of March,
'73, when l became so bad as to be entirely
confined to the house. A friend suggested
ysur remedies. But l was extremely skepti-
cal that they would do me good, as had lost
all heart in remedies, and began to look
upon medicine and doctors with disgust.
However, l obtained one of your circulars,
and read it carefully, from which l came to
the conclusion that you understood your
business, at least. l finally obtained aquan-
tity of DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, your
Golden Medical Discovery and Pellets, and
commenced their vigorous use according to
directions. To my surprise, soon began to
improve. The Discovery and Pellets, in
short time, brought out a severe eruption,
which continued for several weeks. felt
much better, my appetite improved, and
gained in strength and flesh. In three
months every vestige of the Catarrh was
gone, the Bronchitis had nearly disappeared,
had no Cough whatever and | had entirely
ceased TO raise blood; and, contrary to the
expectation of some Of my friends, the cure
has remained permanent. | have had no
more Hemorrhages from the Lungs, and am
entirely free from Catarrh, from which | had
suffered so much and so long. The debt Of
gratitude owe for the blessing | have re-
ceived at your hands, knows no bounds. |
am thoroughly satisfied, from my experience,
that your medicines will master the worst
forms Of that Sdous disease Catarrh, as well
as Throat and Lung Diseases. Ihave recon-
mended them to very many and shall ever
speak in their praise. Gratefully yours,

THE Sanitary Record says that the
duration of life in this country is longer
than in England, and that the immense
profits of the life insurance business
here are explained by the fact that the
rates of insurance are chiefly based upon

OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT During the past
week the efficiency of the Fire Marshal and
the fire department has been thoroughly
tested, and on every occasion and under the
most trying circumstances they have proved
equal to the emergency. 1t is certainly no
idle boast to claim that Chicago to-day
possess one Of the most efficient, if not the
most efficient fire department in the world.
Marshal Benner has well and ably demon
strated his qualifications for the responsible
position which he flls-while the men under
his command have proven their bravery,
their self-sacrifeing devotion, their alacrity
to the call of duty. and their proficiency in a
manner which hasl called forth the highest
commentator from all classes of our citizens.
We are also pleased to state that the petty
jealousy which formerly existed in the de.
Partuent has entirely disappeared. and the
only feeling existing between the various
companies, is generous rivalry to do Their
duty in suck aanner, as to merit the ap.
probation Of the public.

gales, the severest known on the lakes for

was made Captain, where did the storm
strike her, and how hard did it blow -
well, responded the interviewed, ''the
wind struck US 300 miles this side of Mack
