Stop That Cough !!

The wonderful results and immense
sale of HALE's Couch CORDIAL the
past season, ought to convince the most
skeptical; still we are going to con-
tinue the same liberal offer that we have
made heretofore, viz: Any person suf.
fering with q cough, cold or sore throat
who will call at F. A. Poole's, Hawley
& Kellogg's or any other Drug Store
and purchase a bottle of HALE's CouGH
CORDIAL, use one-half Of it, and if they
then conclude that it is doing them no
good, they can return the balance and
receive back their money. Who would
not test this medicine on such liberal
terms? No medicine ever sold in this
vicinity that produced such wonderful
results. All we ask is that you will
try it. 5m6

,KRsppell, M, H. J. Helmeke and. our
Red Wing wagon makers generally, the
Red Wing made wagons have higher
reputation than almost any other used
in this part Of the country, and viii
command reader sale and higher prices
wherever they are known. A large
share Of the credit for this is due the
first mentioned firm, for they constantly
strive to improve upon their work, and
give their patrons an article fully. worth
the money they ask for it. 3>at,t : ~
~ One improvement introduced by them
is that Of boiling the .felloes of the
wheels in oil. This part 81 the wagon
is the first to have the paint rubbed of
BY friction with the mud and dust, and
it is then exposed to the action Of air
and water, and necessarily wears out
before the remainder Of the vehicle.
TO obviate this to a very considerable
extent, Mess-s: Erickson, Peterson y
Co. boil the felloes Of every wheel they
make in oil, and paint them afterwards.
When the paint wears off the oil still
makes the wood impervious 60 water
and renders it nearly twice as durable.
They have adopted several other i'm
provements in different kinds of work,
and their new patent attached to bob
sleds is especially worthy of attention.
We shall have occasion to refer to it,
however, when the Shedding season
again rolls around. Besides making

Of endeavoring to do his duty as a pri-

sentiment it contains is concerned, is a
sample Of many we receive from our pa
irons. The money question is one in
which all citizens are deeply interested,
and about which they want to know the
truth:
Dear SIR: Writing for paper is very
much like speaking in grange, you are
treated with silent contempt by nine
tenths Of your auditors, yet I feel it my
duty as AN humble granger to express
my satisfaction with your candid express
sions Of your principles, especially on the
currency question. / have always ad-
vocatcd democratic principles, but your
writing on the money question are in
Ginning my mind to think favorably of
your position. At least, you do not ex-
cite my combativeness by any irritat.
ing arguments Or expressions. I think
it behooves every voter to be fully. in
formed on this question before voting,
for l think it will deeply affect his per-
sonal welfare pro or con; and hope the
the people of the United States will take
a decided position, with good MAORI
ty, one way or the other, so that we can
have the thing settled and shape our af-
fairs accordingly. I have asked several
Of my neighbors their opinion Of the
subject, and am sorry to say that they
do not talk as if they thought much
about it; End my object in writing this
is to induce you to publish expressions
and arguments Of the most prominent
citizens Of the county, so that we can
vote Understandings. Please do not
publish my name or place for I do not
want to make myself conspicuous.
