Chicago Medical College, has returned with
his family to this place, and will chang

Prof. Chase is making all preparations
for leaving Jefferson. We feel sorry to
have him go. During his long residence
among US he has made himself unusually
liked. We can with all justice say that he
has been one OF the best friends the Jeffer-
son Liberal Institute ever had. During
the darkest days of the school he was full
of hope. and often By bis sport moved the

Stop Your Cough!

The wonderful results and immense sale
of HALE'S COUGH CORDIAL the past
season, ought to convince the most skepti-
cal; still we are going to continue the same
liberal offer that we have made heretofore,
viz: Any person suffering with a cold,
cough or sore throat, who will call st Fred.
J. Schroeters Drug Store and purchase a
bottle ofHALES COUGH CORDIAL, use
one:half of it. and if they then conclude
that it is doing them no good, they can re-
turn 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
magical results. All we ask is that you
will try it.

Death Of Prominent Jefersonian.

Mr.. William Sanborn, father of the pro.
prietor of the Jefferson Banner died at his
residence in Jefferson last Thursday, April
9th, aged Is years. A Jefferson corres-
pendent of the Milwaukee Sentinel gives
the following facts in the history of Mr..
Sanborn:
Mr.. Sanborn came West from Vermont
during the summer of 1888, and after visit
ing Chicago and Milwaukee and other
points in this State and Illinois, located
here that fall. The prospects of what was
called the Rock River canal from the lake
to the river Of this place seemed at that
time to furnish the best prospects that
could be found in the State. Mr.. Sanborn
built what is now known as the Sawyer
House, and also the Court House and old
block Jail, taking from the county part
payment for the latter, what were then
known as the canal lands and village lots
in this village. Nearly the whole of the
east part of the village is known as San.
born's addition. He has held numerous
positions of public trust, the last as county
treasurer, during war times, when The Re-
putlicans were able to elect county officers.
He leaves a wife, three IONS and three
daughters. Mr.. and Mrs. Sanborn celebra-
ted their golden wedding, last November.

A Few Facts.


I'VE clip the following article, descrip-
tive of tirst.class, useful invention from
Chicago paper. The stoves are just
what they are recommended
In a recent issue of the MERCANTILE
DAILY, there appeared an item entitled
"Old matter in new FORM" in which tho
facts are mentioned, that some ingenious
person had contrived in most success
full mann'r to combine the products OF
oil and watcr-heat and steam-in neat
little article for household use, which
united utility and economy in a rare and
pleasing manner. We described this ;rt-
Gle as follows:
"a huge lamp. made of heavy tin, fiat
on the bottom, with rounded sides, hav-
ing three upright tube burners, with
broad, large wicks, protected by mica
guards Surroundirg the tubes and about
the oil receptacle, is an apartment for
water which becomes heated by the burn
ing oil and converted into steam AMI
passing upward, outside of the tubes.
combines with the heat of the oil and
produces n moist heat of great intensity.
Surrounding and surrounding this device
is II metallic frame work, quite ornamcn
tai, but sufficiently strong for all practi-
cal uses. Upon this are placed the uten-
sis in which to cook; and these utensils
are of the same description as those used
upon an ordinary cook stove; excepting
the oven, which is of new and much
improved design Upon this little stove
one can cook any and everything needed
in family. 1t will bake, boil, fry or
broil, any article in less tine, and at
much less expense, than any other cook
ing arrangement yet devised"
| In proof of this ST remark, and in an
, swer to numerous inquiries, we will state
that, at one Of the largest restaurants in
this city, where there are several OF these
stoves in use, practical, every day opera
| tons show that bread can be baked i'll
eighteen to twenty-siX minutes; an eight
to twelve pound roast in an hour and Il
quarter to an hour anG a half; turkey i'll
! the same time; chickens in forty to sixty
minutes; steak or ham, broilcG to suit
! the most fastidious, in five minutes; a
| kettle of water 1.-TWO to six quarts) heated
in twelve to thirty minutes. All this, we
are told, has been done and is now being
done every day, at cost Of one cent pei
| hour for oil uhe water costs less.) These
| Summer King stoves will do all that any
cook stove will do, take up but little
room and C use no smell from the burn
ing oil; they are cheap. durable, easily
kept clean, and easy to handle. We re-
gard their introduction as the commence
ment of q revolution in the art of coo k
ing, and much of the labor also; and re.
commend any person who wishes to avoid
the disagreeablc heat of the ordinary
cook stove, during the Summer or prac.
tice economy, to give them an cXamna-
ton, and they will find them even better
ter than we have described

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the ed e
/ Of the ribs, increases on pressure !;
sometimes the pain is in the ftside; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the left
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder blade, and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and is
sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss ofappetite and sickness the bowels
in general are costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally considerable loss ofmemory,
accompanied with painful sensation of
having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bility; he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains ola
prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits
are low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few ofthem existed,
yet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been ex-
tensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. c. McLANE's LIVER Pills, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken
with Quinine, are productive of the
most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used, preparatory to, or after
taking Quinine. We would advise all
who are afflicted with this disease to
give them A FAIR TRIAL.
For all Bilious arrangements, and as
a simple purgativc, they are unequaled.

PHILADELPHIA, May 10Th, 1876
By the time this reaches the readers of
:'the CHRONICLE, the news of the inaugu-
ration of the grandest Worlds Fair of
the ages will have flashed by the electric
spark over the globe, and been carried by
myriads of swift messengers into every
nook and corner of the land. People in
all the hamlets and villages of America
will have read from countless correspon-
dents notes the jubilant scenes of the
pressive, and inspiring to the last de-
gree. No such celebration was ever wit
messed since our fathers founded the Re-
public.
Every department of the National Gov
ernment was represented; the Emperor
eof Brazil with his suite, and the diplo-
nnatic corps of many foreign governments
ware present in person. with governors
and legislatures of the States, mayors of
tine cities. and thousands of guests of dis
tinctiCn in every rank and profession.
1t was an august assemblage. Multi
tudcs of the people attended. 1t is csti-
mated that 1000 at least were there
Such a mass of humanity was never be-
fare seen in any similar gathering in the
worlds history. The opening has been
truly suspicious, and marks an event al
together unique aud wonderful in our
.,country's annals.
READY FOR TIE OPENING
Several points which have been matters
of ANXIOUS question, have been practical
1y settled by the happy Inauguration of
the exhibition. 1t was deemed by many
impossible to have the buildings in readi-
mess at the appointed time. The strange
apathy, not to say antipathy, of great
numbers of the American people towards
the undertaking; the long indifference,
not to say opposition, of a large portion
of the influential press of the country;
the honest doubts of many rs to the cX
pcdiency of ccntralzing the celebration
IN the way proposed; the tardy support
of the National and State Legislatures;
and above all, and largely arising from
these, the lack of funds to carry out the
project on the worthy scale on which it
had beer conceived, combined with the
distressing depression in the general bus
iness of the country, all leading to disap-
pointments and delays, very naturally
compelled 10 the toubt whether, after
all, the Exhibition could possibly be
ready for the world on the day or the
snonth, or even in the year appointed and
announced i
