Congressman Piper.

The Dixon Tribune pays the folio "
ing graceful and merited compliment
to Congressman Piper Mr.. Piper
has made very able Representative.
Earnest and energetic in everything
that affected the interests of his con-
stituency, careful, cautious and palms.
taking in all matters of legislation
pertaining to the Pacific Coast, his
course has commended him to the
good will of all honorable and upright
men. His gallant fight against such
fearful odds for the increase in the ap-
preparation for the San Francisco
Mint. his memorable bout with the
willy Pennsylvania established his
reputation as a logical reasoner and a
ready debater, with keen sense of
the humorous. San Francisco cannot
do better than reward his unremit-
ting labors in her behalf by a re-elec-
tion Of her present popular and eff
cient Representative.

Another Robbery.

On Wednesday night, or rather
shortly after midnight, some artistic
operator who has evidently been en-
gagged in business hereabouts lately,
entered the store of Negro Pasquale,
on Main street, near the Pico House,
and robbed the place of three thousand
cigars, three boxes of tobacco, two
gold pencils, two gold lockets and fif-
teen dollars in cash. 1t appears that
the robber or robbers entered at the
rear end of the store, by first boring
auger holes and then saving out a
piece large enough to admit the en-
trance of the hand to unlock the door.
The first attempt at boring was made
opposite the lock. A successful effort
was made above. There is no clue to
the discovery of the thieves as yet;
but it is quite evident that it is the
same party that has of late been car
rying on systematic business of bur-
glaries and theft. The amount of
goods and cash taken amounts to
about three hundred dollars.

IT is SELDOM THAT WE NOTICE anything In
the medical line, nor would we now, unless
we could be convinced that we are not doing
our duty as journalists IN recommending to
the public the celebrated botonical prepara-
tions of DIR. Henry. Whoever induces the
victim OF Scrofula or any other disease of the
blood, to use DR.. Henry.s Extract of Sarsapa-
rilla, has begun a good work. There can be
no question as to the result of this medicine
II ifpersevered in. 1t is sure cure for Scrofu-
la, Rheumatism, Salt Rheum, and indeed all
complaints arising from vitlated and impure
blood. 1t is just what good physician would
prescribe for these complaints, and we con-
fidentially recommend 1t as being the best
article now in use. DR.. Henry's Cough Balsam
is the most effective remedy for any affections
of the Tn roat or Lungs that we have ever
known. 1t contains no deleterlous drugs,
and can be taken with impunity and GER
tainty of relief. For the cure of Coughs, Colds,
Sore Throat, ETC., 1t stands without a rival.
DR.. Henry's Linament as an allrviator OF
pain, is unrivalled by any preparation before
the public; the most skeptical will be con-
vinced by single trial. II will prove itself a
"friend in need" which no family should be
without

A widely Applicable Kennedy.

Few remedies are applicable to such wide
range of disorders as Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, and this not because 1t has special
properties adapted to the cure OF each-such
a pretence would be manifestly absurd-but
on account of its wonderfully improving eff
feet upon the general tone OF the system, and
its Alternative action upon the organs OF nutri-
ton, secretion and discharge. Besides its
well known properties as remedy for inter-
mittent and remittent fevers, dyspepsia, con-
stipation, ,torpidity of the liver, general debil-
ity, urinary and uterine difficulties, 1t invaii-
ably proves to be highly serviceable in over
coming anemia, h ypochrondri ia, ia,rheumatism,
insomnia, and many other disorders and dis
abilities originating in poverty or impurity OF
the blood, nervous weakness or over-excite-
ment, or an imperfect performance OF the
physical functions
Los Angeles daily herald., 1876-06-02
The EVIL Fruits of We ak Digestion.

There is no pathological fact more clearly
ascertained than that the most formidable
phases OF nervous disease are directly trace
able to imperfect digestion. Insomnia, with
It's train of direful consequences, proceeds
more frequently from weakness of the stom-
ach than from any other cause. Mere seda-
tives are powerless TO cure nervousness. and
soon cease to palliate its symptoms. The
true way to strengthen the nervous system is
to invigorate the digestive and assimilative
organs, upon whose unobstructed. action its
equilibrium is absolutely dependent The
daily use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will
do more to brace and soothe the weakened
and irritated nerves, and induce sound, re-
freshing sleep-nature's grand catholicon-
than all the so-called nervines to be found in
the pharmacopeia or out of 1t. A wineglass-
full OF the Bitters should be taken before each
meal.

Consumption Cured.

An old physician, retired from active prac-
tice, having had placed in his hands by an
East India missionary the formula of q SIM
pie vegetable remedy.for the speedy and per-
manent cure OF consumption, bronchitis, ca
tarrh, asthma, and all throat and lung affec.
tions, also positive and radical cure for ner-
vous debility and all nervous complaints, af-
ter having thoroughly tested its wonderful
curative powers in thousands of cases, feels 1t
his duty to make it known to hts suffering
fellows. Actua;ed by this motive, and a con-
scientious desire to relieve human suffering,
he will send free Of CHARGE to all who desire
it, this recipe, with full directions for prepar-
ing and successfully using. Sent by return
mail by addressing, with stamp, naming this
