HELMBOLD'S

This Preparation contains narcotic or Injurious
drug. Nor is Il quack nostrum, recon-
mended for every disease; but for such
diseases here enumerated, viz for Dis
eases Of the Bladder, all Diseases of the Organs,
weakness, SC, whether in male or female, no
matter of how long standing 1t allays pain and
Inflammation, which other remedies invariably
cause, and is pleasant to the taste.
It Is gratifying TO the proprietor of these medi-
cnes to be able to state that it is now nearly 80
years since they were first introduced; during
which time they have been extensively used in
various parts OF the United States, and have given
to patient and practitioner the highest degree of
satisfaction in the various cases in which they
have been employed: whether In town or country =,
hospital, or private practice, they have invariably
given the most decided and unequivocal satsiac-
ton and produced the most salutary and beneficial
effects Numerous letters have been received from
some of the most distinguished Physicians in the
country, and from the Professors of several Med
ieal Colleges, all recommending in the highest
terms, the value Of these medicines, and their su
perority other preparations for such com
plants as the proprietor recommends.
These medicines require considerable care in
the preparation, and the employment Of different
menstrual in successive operations to take up the
extractive matters and IN consequence are most
frequently improperly made, and not unfrequently
much impaired, If not rendered totally inert by
injudicous and unskilful management OF those
unacquainted with pharmaceutical preparations.
Numerous preparations of SArssparilla and of
Buchu, and various modes Of preparing them
have been given, all OF which, of course, will differ
according to the mode of preparation which eact
individual may adopt. II is therefore, OF thu
highest consideration and importance TO the pub
lie and to the faculty that there should be STANDARD
preparations of uniform strength and possessing
the most advantage. To effect this, and obviat
the Inconvenience alluded to, have made
number OF experiments to ascertain the mos
efectual means OF extracting the virtues of Sar
ssparilla and the Buchu, and to discover the mos
eligible form for their exhibition. The expert
ments have resulted most favorably, and it is witt
much pleasure l now offer to the public and tn
faculty my Compound Fluid Extracts, whic
contain all the virtues of the medicines. and ar
the most active preparations of either which can
made.
Two tablespoonful of the Extract of Zarsapt
rilla, added to pint Of water, is equal to the Lii
bon Diet Drink, and one hottie Is fully equal to
gallon of the Syrup OF sarsaparilla, or the DecoC
ton, usually made.

So far as we are acquainted with public
sentiment here it is quite solid that it
would be much better for the state audi
tor to take the management of this mat
ter. The constitution requires a portion
of Indebtedness to be raised everysyear,
but the trouble is that when it is raised
and gets into the treasury the succeeding
couGcil will squander it, and then when the
debt falls due there is no money to pay it
with. Senator Writings plan would pre-
vent the average alderman from gobbling
every dollar in the treasury and expend-
ing it on his favorites. Each locality
would, of course, as provided in the reso-
luton, have to pay its own debts, and the
measure would have no effect whatever
upon people outside of municipal corpora
tons, We think he sentiment of Rock
Island would be very solid 10 favor of the
measure.

and law involving this question must contain, as
fundamental condition, that the several localities
must paw their own debts and that the state con
sents to be manager on the express condition that
she will exercise the power to enforce the pay
ment in full from the several localities seeking this
relief.
