For Fever and Ague, intermittent Fever,

ali the afections which arise dom malari-
GUS, marsh, or miasmatic poisons.
This is q compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable Ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the sevsrest cases Of Chills
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
a remedy the necessities of the people In mala-
rious districts demand Its great superiority
over any other medicine yefdiscovered for the
cure Of Intermittents is, that it contains no quiz
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
from danger Of quinism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy after using 1t as before. 1t
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment of these distressing
disorders, and SO u~nvarying has been its success
that ithas gained the reputation Of being infal
lble. Itcan, therefore, be safely recommended
as a sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Agueo of the West, and the Chills and Fever Of
the South. It counteracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from its inhu>
ence, SO that fever and ague, shakes or chills,
once broken up by il, do not return until the
disease is again contracted.
The great variety ofdisorders which arise from
the irritation of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
Rheumatism. Gout, Headache, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh; Asthma, Pal
pitation, SplenicA Affections, Mysteries, Pain
In the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, and derange-
of the Stomach, all of which become intermit-
tent or periodical, have no speedier remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks. AS
a preventive, it is of immense service in those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
it stays the development Of the disease if taken
on the first approach of the premonitory symp-
toms. Travellers anil temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer If they avail themselves Of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpiditys
it is an excellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail.

Crushed by the Cars.

About o'clock this morning DR.. Gait
was summoned to the G. B. 4 @. depot to
attend man who had been injured by
the cars. He had crawled under car
which was standing on the side track and
was asleep. The switch engine was coupled
on to the cars and had just started for
ward with them when one of the men
heard some one scream and signalled the
engineer to stop, which he did but not
until one pair of the car trucks had passed
over the mans arm. The doctor found
the right arm mashed to jelly from the
elbow to the shoulder and the right ear
cut off and hanging only by small piece of
flesh.
The arm was horribly mangied and the
man in such apparent agony thatthe doctor
thought at first it was useless to try to do
anything for him, but concluding that he
could only die in either case he amputated
the arm close to the shoulder and sewed
the ear OF.
This morning he was feeling quite well
considering his injuries and the doctor says
ii he has received no serious internal in
juries he will recover, though it is impossi-
BILE to determine about that until further
developments which will take three or four
days. He vas removed to-day to room
in the old wooden mill building and is at
tended properly. He says his name il
John Fleming, that he came here from Ce
dar Rapids, Iowa, last Tuesday in search
of work. and that he has no relatives il

paper Of the nationality 10 the west:
The men that were nominated were the
best before the convention. Mr.. Crouk-

10 Freeport, where he grew up from a
workingman to a small business man, and
in time to one of the largest merchants in
the state; then the mayor of Freeport for
two terms, and three terms in the lower
house of the Illinois legislature. In al
that time not word was said against bis

man can say that 10 carving out his for
tune he ever robbed poor man. Indeed,

want more Of the Cronkrite kind of mer
who believe in the good old motto, live

superintendent for schools, has held thu
position for the last four years, and his
record got him the nomination on the frs
ballot, which speaks volumes for him.
