I had o dream! / thought that I was

In one Of my strolls I CHANGED to meet
q man who had in his hnnd q hand.

wiser" and who said that he was an
agent for the sale OF the book. The
title was such q novel one tibet I was
impelled to give the work q casual no.
tice. Az I hastily glanced over ita
pages, observed that 1t contained
trsatises not commonly found In medical
works. But l had too many times been
deceived by appearances, and ! deter
mined that I would have nothing TO do
with II. A voice within me, like Q faith.
full mentor. whispered: "Know thy op.
portunity; In that book Is thy saliva
toni" / began reasoning with myself.
Although doubtful and distrustful. yet I
put forth my hand to take the book,
and, 10! the agent was gone! I was
miserable. In my agony I awoke.
Great drops OF perspiration were upon
my brow. by my bedside was . friend
who had called during my slumber to
sec me. Said my friend: II have
brought with me q book. just published.
which I thought might interest YOU"
One glance ut tho work, and I was as.
sured that II was "The Peoples Com.
mon Sense Medical Adviser" by DR.. II.
V. Pierce. OF Buffalo, N. Y. Surely,
this was tho veritable book which I had
seen in my dream. My friend loaned
mo the book. and every day. a. my
strength permitted. I perused Its pages.
Although II contained very interesting
treatises on Biology. Cerebral Physi.
ology. Human Temperance. Nursing Of
the Sick. etc.. yet. being an invalid. !
was most interested In the subjects Of
Diseases and Remedies. believed that
! had n liver affection. and yet more than
n medical attendant had pronounced
my disease Consumption. and that l
would fall with the autumn leaves. In
that book / found my symptoms per.
fectly portrayed. was then confident
that I had not deceived myself. rea-
soncd thus: "Any man who a so
truthfully depict my feelings, and appa.
rently understands my constitutional
tendencies. must know just what my
physical system demands. l will trust
my case with DIR. Pierce. I will take
his Golden Medical Discovery. as RECON-
mended for my disease" The result is.
that after having persevsrinsly followed
his prescribed treatment, l once again

The Death Of Mrs. cuthbertson.

Sudden-like a lightning stroke-did
the news of the death of this lady fall
upon this community yesterday morn
ing. 1t had been known to only a few
that she was sick, when her demise was
whispered through the city. But yes
terday a blooming bride, who came to
Cheyenne from Omaha, accompanying
her husband to his new field Of labor
to-day o corpse-a heart-broken hus-
banda motherless babe.
Our inclinations urge US to whisper a
few words of consolation to the strick-
en- Edward; but of what avail are words
in his deep anguish? Let us, rather,
leave him in hallowed communion with
the Great Spirit, "who loveth, but
c~hasteneth."
Mrs. Cuthbertson was a true and
loving wife, a kind friend and neigh
Dor, beloved by all who had made her
acquaintance during her short stay in
this city. Her life, ever devoted strict
ly to duty, and doing good TO all around
hers life SO calm and pure-has ex-
PRED with a kindred sweetness about
it. ~rLetlnlowers and music, kind
friends and earnest words c~onsecrate
the hour to-day, when the last farewell
will be taken Of allthat is mortal of

the report of the proceedings of the

the Indians, as among other advantages
TO be gained by them is the right OF citi-
Gems to go into the country of which
they have taken possession, and from
which they cannot be excluded. The
message and report were ordered to be
printed and tabled.
