A REMARKABLE CURE

ABRAHAM HUNsTCK Err, two miles from Skip
packville, Montgomery county, Pa, contracted
a serious cold, which settled upon his lungs,
with violent cough, pains In side and breast.
and short breath. The symptoms became very
alarming; an abscess formed in the lungs and
made its way through the side, and discharged
large quantities of pus externally, so that his
physician thought that the power or functions
of one of his lungs was totally destroyed. and
therefore supposed the case entirely hopeless.
This mournful state of things continued for a
long time, until he was wasted and worn TO a
skeleton. He was advised TO make use OF
Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry, and
through it's use was restored to health.

OUR CONGRESSMAN.-Wit one week

he called upon to elect a representative to
the Forty-fifth Congress, and they have a
simple duty and one easy of performance.
Hon. John Reilly has demonstrated by his
course during the session just closed that he
is capable aud efficient, and no CO ,stituent
has addressed him in vain. He has been
faithful to his constituency in all things, re-
gardless of partisanship, and has been
prompt in the discharge of his duties to the
country at large. He is again a candidate
for election, and we confess we cannot see
why he should not poll every vote he receiv-
ed two years ago in addition to hundreds he
did not then receive.
The faithful servant of the people is de-
serving reward, and certainly Mr. Reilly de-
serves the reward of reelection. 1t is re-
ward too, tina: our people, independent of
party, can well afford to pay for the in nvalua-
BILE services of the man.
Honesty and integrity and capacity make
up Mr.. Reilly's composition, and people
who admire those virtues in their official
servants will give him their votes on Novem-
Der 9Th. 1t will be well to be IT in mind that
Mr.. Reilly is not candidate of his own
seeking. He has a responsible and lucrative
position in the employ of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, aud his personal desire
was to remain therein and provide for the
friends and his unsought denomination have
been too much for him, and he has again
consented to relinquisb his own immediate
interests to attend to those of his constituen-
cy. His self-obnegation demands, as we
have no doubt it will receive, the cordial
support of the voters of the Seventeenth
Distr -Holliddysburg Standard.
