Rational Medication.

Medication is only successful when it is ration
al, and it is rational only when it begins at the
beginning. In other words, to Weakness, either
general or local, is the origin of the great ma
jority Of diseases. Reinforce the vital energies,
regulate digestion and secretion, by strengthen
ing the organs which perform those ail-import-
ant functions, and dyspepsia, constipation, kid
ney and bladder complaints, uterine difficulties,
impure circulation, and the thousand and one
ailments which are the consequences Of debility,
are completely, and in most cases permanently,
removed. The best, safest and most agreeable
tonic and Alternative that can be employed for
this purpose is Hostetter's Stomach Bittcrs.
The experience OF twenty-five years, during
which time it has outlived perhaps ten times
that number of ephemeral preparations which
entered into competition with it, has proved it to
be unequaled rs a remedy for all disorders ac-
companed by or proceeding from weakness.

THE ENTERPRISE BUILDING AND LOAN AssO-
CIATIoS.-The above association met at their
rooms in Sunbury. on the 2ith of January, 1876,
and held their annual election. The following
Is the result
PresideLt-E. B. Westfall.
Vice Presidcnt--W. f. Beardsley.
Secretary-Frank S. Mari.
Teasurer-H. S. Briggs.
Directors-Jacob Sensenbach, J. A. Cake,
John VI. Shpman, Geo. J. Mason, Alfred Krouse,
J. W. Cake, W. A. Rogers, Chas. Sensenbach
and S. Malick.
The association is chartered on the permanent
system, and will maintain its existence by the
issue of new series every year. This serial
plan eliminates the deadlock feature Of the
terminating associations. 1t Is founded on the
latest improved principles, and will doubtless
commend itself to all who are desrous of saving
their money and to those who are eager to bor-
row. Especially to working men will this be
an object of attraction. The association has
met with fair success during the frs; year of its
existence, and from promises received they have
been induced to issue 500 shares for It's second
series. All who are desirous of obtaining stock
or information, ,can be accommodated by applying
to any of the officers or, TO any OF the board of
directors.

The deceased was an invalid for many years.
Having contracted imfammatory rheumatism by
exposure, his limbs became disabled, and he was
confined to his bed tor sixteen years and seven
months, unable to help himself Though suf
fering with terrible pains; lie was most Of the
time cheerful, and bore his Affections with chris
tan forttude. He was the son of Mr.. Peter
Wilmer, deceased, who WAS widely known
throughout the county as exemplary gentle
man. During the sickness of the Diseased, he
was visited 10y many persons who were greatly
astonished at how he could live in such de-
formed state and helpless condition. He was
great reader, and passed his time in reading
scriptuaral and historical works. His remains
were inferred in the Georgetown cemetery, and
were followed 10 their last resting place by the
largest concourse of people that have gathered
on similar occasion in that part of the county.

TOPEKA, Kansas, January IS, 1876.
Frisaa Hiluert:
| arrived in this city Dec. 4th, and
have been looking around some. This is a big
country and in need of improvements. Topeka
is the Capitol o: Kansas, built on high ground,
on the banks of the Knaw river, and is one of
the railroad centres of Kansas. 1t is the juno
tion of the Kansas Pacific and Atchison. Topeka
and Santa Fe Z. Z. Both roads are doing a
good traffic in passengers, grain, coal and cattle.
Here are their principal shops for repairing en-
gines and cars. There are ten thousand inhabi-
sants in this city, well supplied with churches,
schools and hctels.
The city is lighted with gas has a paid fire
department consisting of one Silsby steamer,
two chemical engines, one hook and ladder
truck, all drawn BY horses. Through the cour.
tesy Of the chief engineer, Mr.. Wilmarth, WAS
permitted TO see the horses exercised. At the
sound Of the gong they are all looseued and each
went to go to the apparatus alone. They stand
in harness at all times and come out very
promptly.
The city is lively ut present as the Legislature
is in session, and they have plenty to do. That
WHICH seems most TO claim tnelr attention Is re-
sumption of specie payment, herd and dog law.
The Grangers have n good mouth for mutton so
has the dog, and the dog usually gets the first
pick. Kansas is good country for dogs, and
dog that can't catch a sheep is of 10 account.
Sheep are doing well here. Before the dogs had
possession of the country the wolves occupied
the land, but they and the sheep did not do so
well together. man, with the aid O: his dog,
run the wolf out. Now the Changers want the
Legislature to 20 for the dog, and if they do
some one may go for them.
General Sheridan passed over the Santa Fe
Railroad to-day.
The Omaha tribe Of Indians had left their re-
servation to 20 on hunt, but the Bucks had
war paint on, so Uncle Sam took them back,
telling them It was poor time to hunt the
trouble was that there WAS some Sioux Indians
buffalo hunting up on the Medicine, aud if the
Omahas had got up there they would of had
good hunting.
This is n very mild winter, fine weather, game
is plenty, and choice buffalo and antelope steak
sell At 10 cents per pound in city market.
