Great and Good Medicine,

Vegeiine is not prepared for fancy drink made
from poor liquors, which debitates the system and

no one can doubt. In many OF these cases the per

Messrs. j. Mcclure & Co., Druggists cor. Elm

"In our neighborhood a number of teamsters are
using the Centaur Liniment. They pronounce it
superior to anything they have ever used. We sell
as high as four to five dozen bottles per month to
owners of horses and mules"
We have volumes of testimonials describing
cures of Sprains, Kicks, Calls, Poll Evil, Big Head
and even Founders, which are little less than mar.

out a bottle of Centaur Linment, which any day
may prove worth twenty times its cost.

LINIM ENTS,

So nearly perfect are the recipes of these wonder
full pain-soothng and healing Centaur Liniments
that we can confidently say they will alleviate
any pain arising from flesh, bone or muscle de
rangements. We do not pretend that they will
in such cases they will reduce the Inflammation
and stop the pain. Nor can we guarantee the prop.
erresuts where the body is poisoned by whiskey.
Temperance is as necessary to a proper physical,
as mental condition.
The WHITE CENTAUR LINIMENr is particularly
adapted to all cases of rheumatism, Lumbago,
Neuralgia, Erysipelas, Itch, Sprains, Chillblans,
Cuts, Bruises, Stings, Poisons, Scalds, Sciatica,
Weak Back, Pains in the side, Wounds Weeping
Sinews, Burns, Frosted Feet, Palsy, Ear-ache,
Tooth-ache, Headache, Ulcers, Old Sores, Broken
Breasts, Sore Niies, Sete Threat, Group, Dipthc-
ria etc. The most OF these complaints the Centaur
Linment will cure; all of them it will benefit. 1t
will extract the poison from bites and stings, and
will cure burns and scalds without scar The fol.
lowing is but sample OF thousand similar testi-
monials:

One dollar, or even fifty cents, invested in Cen

When physicians are called they frequently use
this Liniment, and OF course charge several prices
for it.

This place seems very new and yet 1t is quite

on which they settled at that time. The first
town meeting was held in '35. The Oldest set

which he called Freedom. The owner Of the

here in 49, and has remained on the farm ever
since it was once occupied as q camp-ground by
Gen. Harrison and his troops on their march
from sandusky to Fort Melgs. But few years
since there was standing tree short distance
from the house on which was cut the name OF
a soldier who died while here IN camp and was
