VEGETINE

v EVE1IlNE
Strikes at the root of disease by purify
ing the blood, restoring the liver and
kidneys to healthy action, invigorating
the nervous system.
VEGETINE
Is not vile, nauseous compound, which
simply purges the bowels, but safe,
pleasant remedy which is sure to purify
the blood and thereby restore the health.
YEGETINE
Is now prescribed in cases Of Scrofula
and other diseases of the blood, by many
of the best physicians, owing to its
great success in curing all diseases of
this nature.
VEGETINE
Does not deceive invalids into false
hopes by purging and creating fctiti-
Gus appetite, but assists nature in clear
ing and purifying the whole system,
leading the patient gradually to perfect
health.
VEGETINE
Was looked upon as an experiment for
some time by some of our best physi-
clans, but those most incredulous in re-
gard to its merit are now its most ardent
friends and supporters.
TEGEfINE
Instead of being puffed-up medicine
has worked its way up to its present as
tonishing success by actual merit in cur
ing all diseases of the blood, of whatev-
er nature.
TEGETINE
Says a Boston physician, "has no equal
as blood purifier. Hearing of its ma.
ny wonderful cures, after all other RENE,
dies had failed, visited the laboratory
and convinced myself of its genuine
merit. 1t is prepared from barks, roots
and herbs. each of which is highly ef
fective, and they are compounded in such
manner as to produce astonishing re.
suits"

A member of President Grants Cabipet g
reported to have said, u reference to the con
ceptra,iou of troops at Washington, that while
be did not believe that the better aud more
sensible class Of people 10 the South ncdltated
any resort to the arbitrameut OF arms to suS
tain their political convictions and choice OF
party leaders, yet if there was to be any con-
Gct with the insubordinate and lawlcss classes
the best time to have it was right now. lie
said the President would stand firm and silent
locker gu Of passing events; that he would act
promptly, decisively ard uuhinchiugly to Pre-.
serve the county from any shock. Closing
these remarks, he added, with enthusiasm,
still referring to President Grant, THAT little
mau is true blue, and the Amelicau people
will tiod him so still" Now this member o.! the
Cabinet knows, just as we'll as be knows any
thing, that not only the better and more sens-
BILE class Of Southern people, but no other
class, coGtempates resort to arms under aoy
circumstances. If arms are to be resorted 10
it will be by Northern people; and the col!ec-
ton OF troops at the National Capital is not icr
the purpose of defending it from the attacks OF
Southern men, which the administration knows
are not even "meditated," but to stir UP the
old war feeling in The North, and to be used
10 40 attempted usurpatou Of the reius Of
government. The New York News Of ycs;er.
day afternoon, in alludiug TO to this subject,
says: "The startling activity which is repre-
sentcd as obaracterizing the Brooklyn Navy
Yard in consequence OF orders from the Navy
Department, and the mysterious and ponder
Gus movements of troops toward the seat OF
government which are said to be going on from
various points, necessarily give rise to 10 little
public concern, considering the political cir
cumstauces by which they are accompanied.
Had they happened at any other period they
might have passed without notice, and would
now. but for the significant predictions by
which they have for several years been lore.
Swallowed by those who have long been lut-
mately acquainted with the temper and designs
Of tie present incumbent Of the Presidency,
aud who have not hesitated to confidently as
sert that 10 certain events that iunctonary
would for bis own personal ends, create an oc-
casiop which would justify The very occurrences
that are COW 10 progress, aud which macy sa.
gacious politicians and men of the world now
so cravey recognize, It would be, Of all things
gratifying to feel that there were no grounds
for such apprehcnsions; but, taking Toto con-
sderasion the chain of circumstances that have
recently occurred, We must confess, With the
pro(ouudest concern aud regret, that there are
TOO mapy reasons for believing 10 their czis-
tcnce."

The Town BUSINESS IN 1910 AND loI6.-
Among the Instructive comparisons which the
Centennial calls up, there is no where one
that suggests its lessons more readily than the
advertising columns Of y newspaper OF to-day,
when examined 10 connection with that OF half
q century ago. No where are the changes OF
the times more clearly showa for the advcr-
Using columns Of the newspapers are pictures
Of local business unlesignedly, but clearly
drawn. Now comparing the Gazette OF the
autumn of 1910 with the Gazstte OF today
the most salient suggestion that meets one at
his first glance is the total absence 10 1910 OF
whole classes Of advertisements which now &C.
cupy large portion Of the business columns.
There are 40 regular passenger or freight
lines advertised. The columns of railroads and
steamers are not =; not even stage coach; but
we have three sailing vessels ready for freight
or charter. There are 40 ready made clothing
stores no plumbers, except tia aud copper
smith; no stoves for sale; 40 private bankers ;
no sash and door factories DO potion or fancy
stores no fertilizers no advertisement OF
ready made iuroisurc. and noue Of coal, except
one of small lot Oh board VI ship, brought
from Liverpool. The long line of patent msdI'
cines is represented only BY the "Vegetabe
Pulmonic Detergent, sure cure for consump
tion." Blu. on The other hand Ge have, in 1910,
advertisements OF seive mandatory, weav-
ing factory, brush mandatory aud arcpe 'wa'k
which we lack now, besides evidence of very
much heavier -four and tobacco trade than now
exists. Strange as it seems our advertisements
OF to-day CT dsh aud oysters have no counter
parts, A dentist announces himself as . novelty
but the bakers bookstores, prlntse!lers, grocerS'
hardware Stores Cry goods, insurance othces'
attorneys, druggists. shoe dealers. china dealers,
salt dealers, teachers, lion workers, &e.. ad-
Vertissl as now We miss excursions, which,
the Centennial caused 10 l:nger in the TIA
zette ous q! season, aal on turning back to the
summer files Of 1910 We had nothing to cores
pond with our pleasant pleasure trips by water
or rail. W., had the circus, but seats were
one dollar ard the pit fifty cents. Lotteries were
p!entiluliy Advertised, which, it is to be hoped,
were more creiitabir to al concerned than the
