THE CENTENNIAL.
The Farmers Time for Recreation

The Farmers limo for Recreation.
Now, that the summer crops will soon
be gathered, and our farmers everywhere
are happy over the abundant harvest, to-
gether with the fact that the demand for
agricultural products will be great enough
to realize good return in the market, 1t
is we'll that those of our friends who in
tend visiting the Centennial have their at
tention brought to the best and most econ
omical means of reaching the Exhibition
now being held to commemorate our Tooth
Anniversary as Nation.
Undoubtedly greater facilities are now
afforded by the Great Fl. Wayne & Penn
sylvania Line for reaching the GATEWAY
OF THE CENTENNIAL GROUNDS,
than is in the power Of any rival to Offer
while for convenience, comfort, and econ
omy, none can dispute the fact that it is
the most desirable, shortest, and quickest
route to the Centennial depot; in the i'm
mediate neighborhood Of good hotels
whose prices range from two to four dol
lars per day, and within five minutes walk
of the Main Entrance, thus saving to the
visitor the cost and annoyance Of transfer
incident to other lines.
Not the least attractive to our farmer
friends will be tho Encampment Of the
National Grange Of the Patrons of Hus-
bandry, at Elm Station, near tho Centen-
NAL Grounds, on the line of this road,
where ample accommodations have been
provided for agriculturalis lists, at the mod
crate price Of two dollars per day. Ar
rangements have been perfected by this
line by which Centennial tickets to Phila-
delphia or New York and return, good for
sixty days, can be obtained at any coupon
ticket office in the West.

A Remarkable Cure OF Consumption
I'm Chicago.


From the Chicago Tribune, January 9th, 1876
TESTIMONIAL OE THE HON. JOS. E. CARY,
JUDGE OF THE SUPREME COURT OF COOK
COUNTY, ILLINOIS.
Chicago, Dec. 14th, 1875.
DIR. s. D. HowE--Dear Sir Permit
me to add my grateful testimony to the
army of witnesses to the virtues of your
justly celebrated Arabian Remedies
For long time my wife was seriously
afflicted with hacking cough, oppressed
breathing, soreness of the chest, and con-
slant acute pain in the lower portion of
the right lung and under the shoulder
blades. Her sufferings were intense, and
she became extremely nervous and pros
trated. Her disease was pronounced con-
sumption by the physicians of Chicago
and other cities, whose prescriptions had
been taken without effect When you
visited Chicago, June, 1878, We called on
you, having very little hope of deriving
help from your treatment. We were IN
spired with confidence by the skilful
manner in which your thorough examina-
ton was conducted, and with the salts
factory explanation with which you clos
ed your diagnosis. My wife determined
to take your medicine with your plain and
pratical directions. She began to use the
Arabian Milk Cure and Arabian Tonic.
their beneficial effects at once became
manifest-thc cough loosencd and soon
ceased, respiration became easy, the sore
ness of the chest was relieved and all pain
removed; she began to gain in flesh and
improve in strength and appearance. l
fully believe that your medicines and
sklllful advice have saved he..life Of my
wife. She unites with me in this greatful
tribute to the merit of your remedies.
Very respectfully yours,
JOSEPH f. GARY.

member that at the time Of the big fire
two years ago, quantity of goods were
stolen from our dealers and afterwards
traced to Postville, where they were found
in the possession of Mrs. Van Hoover.

stolen goods, and was put under bonds to
appear for trial. She disappeared shortly
after, first securing her bondsman, citi-

more was heard Of her until few days
since, when it was ascertaincd that she
was living at Cedar Falls, under the name
of Theresa Hoppas. Sheriff Van Osdol

ALMOST A RUNAwAY.-A dray horse,
left standing in front of one of our stores
one day this week, concluded that he
would take trip without driver, and
so started off on brisk trot, which con-
stantly increased as he heard the "whoasr
and ordinations aimed at him. When
he got as far as Orcutt's Furniture store,
he made complete circle to the bank
building, where he wheeled again, and
started down Walnut street at his best
rate. He was finally stopped by young
man, who, with great presence of mind,
jumped in the wagon, seized the reins,
and quickly brought the frightened ami
NAL to a halt No damage done.

AS WILL be seen by the announcement
of Superintendent Parker, in another
place, it is proposed to give a series of
public readings during the session of the
Normal Institute, with a small fec for ad-
mission, to aid the funds necessary to pay
the expenses of the Institute. Prof. Glib
eny, of Milwaukee, an accomplished read
er and teacher of reading, will take a
prominent part in these exercises, and
they will no doubt well repay attendance.
We suppose it is hardly necessary to urge
our citizens to patronize literally an en-
tcrtainment with so worthy an object.

Gained Fifteen Pounds in Two
Months.

A prominent merchant of this place
gained fifteen pound in two months, after
taking six bottles of BOWS Liver Cure. -
Nearly all diseases arise from deranged
condition of the Stomach and Liver, caus-
ing Liver Complaints, Sick Headache,
Dyspepsia, Constipation, Jaundice, Rheu-
matism, Fits. Kidney Complaints, &C.
BOWS Liver Cure is purely vegetable, con-
tanning the extracts of some rare herbs.
1t seems to restore the gastric vigor which
is so necessary to perfect digestion, re-
moving torpidity OF the Liver, cleansing
the system bile, producing perfect assimi-
lation of the food, consequently you gain
in flesh. We will pay reward of $500
for any case of sick or bilious headache
which this medicine viii! not cure. Don't

the month of August very large stock
of Men and Boys Ready Made Clothing,
Hats, Caps, and Furnishing Goods. The
