June Taxes.


WVAX-PAYERS will take notice that
~ the Treasurer's Office will be open
from the
1st day of May until the Goth day
of june, 1876,
for the Collection of the June Taxes
without penalty, being the last half of
the Tax of 1875. All property on which
the Taxes have not been paid when the
Treasurer makes his semi-annual settle
ment, will be returned DELINQUENT
to the County Auditor, and on such Tax
the law adds penalty of twenty per
cent. Some Tax Payers have the erro-
neous idea that if their Taxes are not
paid in June no penalty will be added,
but the law clearly states that Taxes re-
manning unpaid when the Treasurer
makes his semi-anuual settlement must
have a penalty Of twenty per cent. ad-
ded to the Tax. Taxpayers will find it
to their advantage to use their utmost
effort to settle their taxes promptly, and
avoid paying the penalty.
The Treasurer requests that tax-pay-
ers bring their December receipts, when
they come to settle their June tax.

Mr.. H. r. STEVENS:
Dear Sir-We have good roason for
regarding your EGETINE a medicine
of the greatest value. We feel assurnd
that tt has been the means of saving o,,,.
sons life. Heis now seventeen years of
age; for the last two years he has suf.
fered from necrosis of his leg. cansad
by scrofulous affection, and was so f,r
reduced that nearly all who saw h;r,
thought his recovery impossible a
council of able physicians could oivo -.
but the fainte>t hope of his ever ral,u9
ing, two of the number decIarino that
he was beyond the reach of human rem
edies, that even amputation eonId not
save him, as lie had not vigor enouoh to
endure the operation. just then we
commenced giving him VEGETINE,
anu from that time to the present he has
oeen continuously improving. He has
lateiy resumed his studies, thrown away
erutcnes and cane, and walks about
cheerfully and strong.
Ihough there is still some discharge
from the opening where the limb was
ianced, we have the fullest confideGce
that IN little time he win be perfectly
cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles
tie. as he declares that he is too well to
be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,

Three Points for COnsidera-
ton.

During the past five years the VEGE-
TINE has been steadily working itself
into public favor, and those who were at
first most incredulous in regard to its
merits are now its most ardent friends
and supporters.
There are three essential causes for
those having such horror of patent
medicines, changing their opinion and
lending their influence toward the ad-
vancement of VEGETINE. 1st-It is
an hOnestly-prepared medicine from
barks, roots and herbs. 2d-It honest
ly aecomplishes all that is claimed for
it, without leaving any bad effects In the
system. 3d-It presents honest vouchers
in testimonials from honest, well-knOwn
citizens, whose signatures are sufli-
cient guarantee of their earnestness in
the matter. Taking into consideration
the vast quantity of medicine brought
conspieuously before the public through
the flaming advertisements in the news
paper columns, with no proof of merit
or genuine vouchers of what it has
done, we should be pardoned for mani
Testing Il small degree of pride in pre-
senting the following testimonial from
Rev. j. 5. DICKERSON, d. D., the
popular and ever-genial pastor of the

To Clean a Rusty Plough.


Take quart of water and pour slowly
into it half pint of sulphuric acid. The
mixture viii become quite warm from
chemical action, and this is the reason why
the acid should be poured slowly into the
water, rather than the water into the acid.
and let it remain on the iron until il
evaporates. Then wash it again. The
object is to give the acid time to dissolve
the rust Then wash with water and you
will see where the worse spots are. Apply
some more acid and rub on those spots with
brick. The acid and the securing will
remove most Of the rust Then wash the
mould board thoroughly with water to re-.
move all the acid, and rub it dry. Brush
it over with petroleum, or other oil, and
let it be till spring When you 60 to
ploughing, take bottle of the aeid water
to the field with you and apply it every
bout to any spot Of rust that may remain.
The acid and the securing of the earth
will soon make i perfectly bright and
smooth. II all iron work be washed of
with petroleum as soon as we put our
tools, implements and machines aside for
the winter, i viii keep them from rusting,
