Consumption Cured.

An old physician, retired from active prac-
tice, having had placed in his hands by an
East India missionary the formula of sim
pie vegetable remedy for the speedy and per-
manent cure of consumption, bronchitis,
catarrh, asthma, and all throat and lung
affections, also a positive and radical cure
for nervous debility and all nervous COM
plants, after having thoroughly tested its
wonderful curative powers in thousands of
cases, feels it his duty to make it known to
his suffering fellows. Actuated by this mo-
tive, and conscientious desire to relieve
human suffering, he will send, free of charge,
to all who desire it, this recipe, with full
directions for preparing and successfully
using. Sent by return mail by addressing

GREEN & SPELMAN, Merchants
Its now everywhere conceded that this is
a remedy never heretofore equsled in real
curative value. 1t accomplshes several i'm
portant indications, chief among which may
be mentioned:
l. 1t completely cleanses and purifes the
blood, quickly overcoming constipation,
causing the liver to throw off its bile and
cleansing the entire alimentary canal, Riding
1t OF worms and other vcrmin inhabiting an
unhealthy stomach and bowels. This action
renders 1t peculiarly valuable in the weak
nesses, thick and impure blood, biliousness
and lassitudes incident to the change from
winter to spring. 1t causes those feeling
dull, heavy, headachy, oppressed and blue to
become clear-headed and cheerful within two
days time. In thus removing all humors
from the blood, it cures all blood diseases,
from pimple on the face to agrave scrofula.
2. 1t has wonderful healing and nutritive
properties for the relief of all irritations and
Inflammation within, and restoring and
building up the system Itthus strengthens
and heals the Stomach, Nervous system,
Heart, Lungs, Kidneys and all other tissues
3. 1t is an active and permanent Nerve
Tonic, thereby adapting it to all grades of
nervousness by building up the nervous
system. Nerve medicines will aot act, I'M
less associated with cleansing remedies
Hence tine beauty of this compound.
4. By its healing and nutritiye qualities it
becomes the necessary and best remedy in
all chronic Coughs. Assisted in these cases
by Dr. Fenner's Improved Cough Honey the
lungs and throat readily heal.
8. Owing TO its healing, Nerve Restorative
and Cleansing properties, it becomes the
best remedy now known for all that long list
Of ailments peculiar to females. 1t is there
fore a vegetable compound, so made up of
the choicest plants, carefully collected from
every country and cline of the world, as to
possess the rarest Alternative or Cleansing
and Purifying, together with Healing and

Lost Near the Black Hills.

A PARTY of $50 men from various
parts of the country, with fifty wagons,
left Bismarck for the Hills on March %.
At Cannon Ball River dissatisfaction was
expressed by many over the slow move
ment, and a party of five, consisting of
Tyler Paddock and Frank Raymond of
Mortified, Mimi, c. O. Daniels of SYRIA
cuse, and Il Swede named Burch, started
ahead, and were Joined at Grand River
by deserter from Fort Lincoln The
six left Grand River on March 81. A
terrible snow storm prevailing, the wagon
train remained at Grand River several
days, and the party, while out hunting,
came upon Paddock and Burch, who had
been wandering about, lost. Burch's
feet had been frozen and were badly
swollen. He had cut off his boots,
and, walking over cactus thistles,
had badly lacerated the flesh Fad
dock is recovering Burch will die.
The other four men had separated in
search of wood and shelter. The bodies
of Raymond and Daniels were found
twenty miles further, frozen stiff The
two had dug with knives a hole a foot
and half deep, throwing dirt around
the side for shelter. Then, discharging
their guns, which they placed by their
sides, they lay down in abject misery and
expired. The remaining two of the party
have not been heard from, and the infer
ence is fair that they, too, persisted in
the terrible storm. The bodies of Ray
mond and Daniels were buried at Grand
River, their effects being taken posses
sion of by their companions. - Deadpood
