For many years we have made two medicines
suited To the ailments Of a vast class OF suffer
ers. Thousands Of cures have been made by
them. aud, in fact, the word failure could not bc

years cOunterleits Of our medicines have sprung
up, dangerous in their close imitation OF our
Trade Mark. To secure lhe people we have
placed upon each genuine box Of Iiolloway's

Of bringing these unprncipled men to the bar

Hossack & Clark, the best known and most
popular painters individually, in this city, have
made decidedly good hit in forming partner
ship. These men are thoroughly skilled in all
the several branches OF painting, granting, cal
Ginning, glazing, paper hanging and in all the
finer departments Of their trade they stand No.
l. Mr.. Hossack is a veteran artist and Clark is
a most skillful hand with the brush. There ls
scarcely nicely executed job Of their art in
Ottawa that does not prove tho handiwork Of
one or the other Of these superior and careful
artizans. They unite their skill and experience
so that in employing this firm you secure the
united good taste and excellence of both. They
warrant perfect satisfaction in every case both
as to the best of workmanship and in moderate
prices. They make 1t special point to be
prompt and energetic in their work aud doing
work according to promise.
Their shops are over Weiss & VOLTS carpenter
shops, one block east Of the postotfice.

An Anniversary.

It is always interesting to watch the growth
Of men and their schemes; il is interesting alike
to the young who pattern after their example,
and 10 the old who compare anothers success
with their own. Among the examples of sue.
cessful career in trade presented to US in this
city is that of Mr.. II. j. Cullen; and very short
review of his success as merchant cannot be
amiss at this time, which is the be- ginning of a
new year Of business by him.
On March |, 1866, Mr.. Gillcn for the first time
took charge of the business OF "the Old Relia-
ble," then conducted by Messrs. REDDICK & Gill
LEN The establishment occupied one room and
employed but three clerks Mr.. g.. went heart
and soul into the business and by dint OF hard
work, hard and thorough study of the wants and
tastes of the community. and strict attention to
business, forced it to steadily expand and in these
seven years nearly doubled the capacity of the
house and the amount Of its trade.
On March l, 1875 Mr.. GILLEN became sole pro-
proprietor. His subsequent success has been
complete. His courteous and accommodating
manners to his customers, his fair and honest
dealing with them, his uniformly low prices, his
one price system, the superior quality and great
quantity of goods, his carefulness to please and
satisfy all,-thesc have brought him his trade.
About year ago he doubled up, occupying since
then two stores instead of one and still his trade
has increased Summing up: in the first seven
years of his career, he nearly doubled his trade
in the last four he has more than doubled the
ioublet; having now two stores and working Is
employees in the two rooms. Where is there u
more hattering showing.
On March l, 1877, he began his fifth year as an
independent proprietor; and that he intends not
only to sustain ais present reputation but to
surpass it, we think is justified by an examina-
ton Of his immense stock Of goods in all the
lines he handles, and by the daily arrivals, and
no firm in Ottawa will open the spring trade in
better shape or more able to satisfy his multi.

The Clothing Interest.

AS stated last week, new goods have continued
to arrive at Messrs. FIsKE & BEEMs, and now we
hesitate not in saying they have the largest and
finest stock of piece goods for clothing in any
house in Illinois outside, possibly, Of Chicago
consisting OF imported goods and goods bearing
the brands of the best American houses, all per
sonally selected by Mr. Fiske.
CHILDRRN's CLOTHING.
We call the special attention of mothers &c
this fine stock, and urge them to examine their
cassimeres and cloths when preparing to make
chldrcn's clothing. IL is the best stock to select
from presented to them, and is offered at Prices
ranging from Csc to sl.25 per yard, and all goods
warranted as represented.
MISCELLANEOUS.
They have also large stock OF gents furnish.
ing goods-just in.
SOCKS at 40 cents per doz.
UNLAUNDRIRD SHIRTS at 20 cents.
Also large stock Of other goods, which will
be offered at very low rates.
REASONS:
There are severol reasons why the public
should patronize FIsKE Il BEEN, viz: II is a
one price house, from which principle there is no
deuiation: all goods represented; perfect salts
faction guaranteed; and still another cogent
reason, that they are selling goods cheaper than
they were ever sold before for the quality. But
read their guarantee, guarantee that is the
corner stone or key of their business principles.
1t will be found in another place in this paper.

Nate Salisbury was formerly resident of this
city and made his first appearance on the stage
| IN some amateur theatricals at Turn Hall years
ago. he was 50 pleased with his success that
since then his profession has been that Of an
actor. Since adopting the stage he has played
frequently In the best companies that have been
! here, at each visit showing great improvement;
and today the Baltimore Amsrican declares +" he
| Is beyond all comparison the cleverest character
ana burlesque actor ever seen in Baltimore"
Ills next appearance here will be on Wednes-
day evening" March 18th, with company OF his
own, The Troubadours," q combination OF
comic opera singers. IL is not new company
haotly collected, but one that has played to-.
gether for some length of time, In all the larger
cities OF the country. At Hooley's, Chicago
was proud OF them at indianapolis. Blanche
Corelh, the soprano, receives high praise from
the Sentinel, at New Orleans A." their reception
was an enthusiastic one;" at Cincinnati, "The
Troubadours had large and intelligent audi
cnce, who were rewarded right royalty" at
Washington, the company, who came with lit
tie flourish. leaped at once into popular favor by
its excellent performances and so at the
" Olympic" st. Louis; at tho Walnut" Phla
delpha; at Memphis, Louisville, &c.
The Comic Opera Patchwork is full of fine
music and pure fun. The impression is that the
singers are having bit of fun to themselves,
without the knowledge that anybody is looking
on. These same singers are supposed to be SER

and proceed to act sing and dance as their in

innocent people seem to think all comic operas
must be, and is put upon the stage with rich
