Astonishing Success.

1t is the duty of every person who has
used Boschee's German Syrup to let its won
derful qualities be known to their friends
in curing Consumption, severe Coughs
Cronp, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all
throat and lung diseases. Three doses will
relieve any case, and we consider it the du-
ty OF all Druggists to recommend it to the
poor dying consnmptive, at least to try one
bottle, as 10000 dozen bottles were sold last
year, and no one case where it failed was re-
ported Such medicine as the German
Syrup cannot be TO widely known Ask
your Druggist about it. Sample Bottle to
try sold at 10 cents. Regular size 75centa

organization and progress of the Glenford
publication. feel assured that if say that
Glenford has one of the best brass bands in
the county it will be no misrepresentation.
1t has been shown in the past that in the
organization of this band their object was
not to save neither money nor time They
took up the motto, what ia worth doing at
all is worth doing we'll. | would infer from
their progress that they are all naturally
adapted te music. Some of them have been
members of brass band for wears C0nse-
quently it is not like all being new begin
ners. Past history has taught them that to
organize brass band they usually are or
have been is sure to perish for the want Of
proper government. This organization has
been gotten up parliamentary. That is by
an adopted constitution and bv laws, which

The book will be large volume of about six
hundred pages, well bound and printed and pub-
lished by regular book establishment, on good
paper, in good style, and in a workman-like man
ner. It will contain history of the county-by
townships as far practicable-from the period Of
the earliest white settlements, down to july 4th.
1877, the close of the Centennial year. The work
