Cuando llegamos 4 descubrir ell yacio

multo del mundo, buscdmos un refugio
4 nuestros desenganos, encerrandonos
entire las cuatro paredes de nuestras

juventud, siempre loca, que todo 10 sue

Luego agoniza ell encanto de nuestras
mas vivas ambiciones, ~. adios mum

In casa nos LENA de dulces recuerdos.
Dentro de las cuatro paredes que la

A large congregation gathered at the church

ance meeting to listen to an address by Mrs.
Anna Barton Of the waverly church. Her re-
marks were earnest and we'll received.
We learn that while driving home from the
temperance meeting, Jesse Barton, driving a
fine young colt, very Unexpectedly ran onto
stump which capsized the buggy. and the
horse taking fright, broke loose and ran away.
We are Lot informed as to the amount OF
damage
Twenty seven bushels OF blackberries were
shipped from this station, Tuesday morning
OF this week. Six cents per quart was the
price paid for them.

The Great ShOshOnees Remedy
and Pills.

The success that these medicines have met
with since their introduction to the public some
years ago, proves plainly to the most skeptical
that they are medicines that perform what they
are advertised to do. The virtues Of these
medicines have been well tested, and have with
stood their trial in most satisfactory manner.
For diseases of the Blood, Liver, Lungs. de-,
they are unsurpassed We have testimonials
Of miraculous cures OF these diseases, and OF
many others. II any one is afflicted let him
try a bottle OF the Remedy and a box OF Pills.
No injurious effects will follow their use to the
most delicate person. as they are purely vegeta-
BILE. there being no mineral matter in them.
The cost is small while the advantages derived
from their use will doubly repay you for your
expense and trouble.
Try these great remedies, and be convinced
that they are no humbug. No one who has
ever tried the Shoshonees Pills has ever pro-
nounced an unfavorable opinion OF them; no
family where they have been used will be with
out them. Full information may be had on all
particulars touching their use. and the expert
ence OF those who have used them. by securing
the Treatise or Circular from your druggist,

trial size, 35 cents; Pills, % cents box.
