The fact that the medical profession recognize

proof that it is not one of the humbugs now so
numerous. c. II. Barker, NJ. D., of Wayne,

MINE NovGORoD FAIR. The great market
of the eastern world has been held at this
junction of the Volga and Olga Rivers, in Rus
STA, every summer for hundreds Of years. Here
the nations OF Europe and Asia meet with their
products for trade. COssack, Chinese, Turk and
Persian, meet the German and the Greek with
every variety of merchandise that mankind
employs, from sapphires to grndstones, tea,
opium, fur, food, tools and fabrics, and last but
not least, medicines. j. c. Aver & Co.'s cele-
brated remedies from America were displayed
in an elegant bazaar where the Doctor himself
might sometimes be seen. They are known and
taken on steppes of Asia as well as the prairies
of the West, and are an etfectual antdote for
the diseases that prevail in the yaourts of the
North, as well as the huts and cabins of the
western continent. Lincoln Ull.) Times.

The few tmid depositors in the Savings Bank
who are drawing out their money and thereby
sacrificing interest, are doing great injustice to
themselves. The bank is strong, and abund-

States bond. This we know, as well as we know
anything, and regret to see people making these
sacrifices.

The People Want Proof.

There is no medicine prescribed by physi-
clans, or sold by Druggists, that carries such
evidence of its success and superior virtue as
BOSCHEE'S GERMAN SYRUP for severe Coughs,
Colds settled on the Breast, Consumption, or
any disease of the Throat and Lungs. A proof
of that fact is that any person afflicted, can get
a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try its superior
effect before buying the regular size at 10 cegts.

from Germany, and its wonderful cures are as

SPECIAL NOTICES.
CONSERVATIVES, TAKE NOTICE.

Every moment of delay makes your cure more
hopeless, and much depends on the judicous choice
OF Il remedy. The amount of testimony in favor of
DR.. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, cure for
sumption, far exceeds all that be brought to
support the professions of any other medicine. See
pr. Schenck's Almanac, containing the certificates
OF many persons of the highest responsibility, who
have been restored to health after being pronounced
incurabe by physicians of acknowledged ability.
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many,
these evidences will show but the is often pro-
NOTED by the employment of two other remedies
which DR.. Schenck provides forthe purpose. These
additional remedies are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills. By the timely use of these
medicines, according to directions, DR.. Schenck GER
titles that most any case of Consumption may be
cured
DR.. Schenck will be at the Quincy House, Boston,
on the following Wednesdays, from to O'Clock:
Jan. 18th and eth, Feb 10th and 24th, and March
