Centaur

Tho Quickest, Surest and Cheapest
Remedies.

Physicians recommend and Farriers declare that
no such remedies have ever before been in use.
Words are cheap, but the propretors of these
ticles will present trial bottles to medical men
gratis, and will guarantee more rapid and satisfac
tory results than has ever before been obtained

Sciatica Caked Breasts. Sore Nipples Frosted
Feet Chilblans. Swellings and any ordinary

Henry Black of Ada Hardin Co. Ohio says:
MY wife has had rheumatism for five years-no
rest, sleep-could scarcely walk across the floor
She is now completely cured by the use of Cen
taur Liniment. We all feel thankful to you, and
recommend your wonderful medicine to all our
friends
James Hurd of GAINESVILLE. Ohio. says: The
Ceptaur Liniment cured my neuralgia.
Alfred Tush of Newark, writes: Send me
one dozen bottles by express. The Linment has

The sale OF the Liniment is increasing rapidly.
The Ccntnnr Linimcnt, Yellow Wrapper,
is for the touch skin, flesh and muscles of
HORSES, MULES AND ANIMALS
We have never yet seen case of SPAWN, Swee-
ny, Ring bone, Wind gall, Scratches or Pol-Evil,
which this Liniment would not speedily benefit,
and we never saw but few cases which it would
not cure. 1t will cure when anything can. 1t is
folly to spend $50 for Farrier, when one dollars
worth of Centaur Liniment will do better. The
following is Il sample of the testimony produced:
MCPHERSON No, Nov. 10. 1873.
"Some time ago was shipping horses to St.
Louis. got one badly crippled in the car. With
great d. ficulty got him to the stable on Fourth
avenue. The stable keeper gave me a bottle Of
your Centaur Liniment which used with such
success that in two days the horse was active and
nearly we'll. have been veterinary surgeon for
thirty years, but your Liniment heads anything
ever used.

Do Not Face the Light When at Worl

Do Not Face the Light When at Work.
Statistics kept by occulists I'M
ployed in intirmaries for eye diseases
have shown that the habit of some
persons in facing a window from
which the light falls directly in the
eyes as well as Oh the work, injure
their eyes III the end, the best way
to work is with side light, or, if
the work needs strong illumination,
so that it is necessary to have the
working table before the window,
the lower portion of the latter should
be covered with screen, so as to
have top light alone, which does
not shine IN the eyes when the head
is slightly bent over and downward
toward the work.
In the schools in Germany this
matter has already been attended to
and the rule adopted to have all the
seats and tables so arranged that the
pupils never face the windows, but
only have the side lights from the
left; and as light simultaneously

strictly forbidden to build school

such Elimination having also proved
injurious to the eyes Of the pupils.
We may add to this the advice
not to place the lamp in front of you
when at work in the evening, but
little on one side; and never neg
lect the use of a shade, so as to pre-
vent the strong light shining in the
eyes. This is especially to be con-
sldered at the present time, when

more common.
