  L[N[MENTS.

More than ,oOO bottles of the now celebrated Centaur Liniments, were sold last year. We as ser without fear of contradiction that man, woman child will say that they did not perform according to the advertisement. We do not pretend that the Cemraur Linime nts ill mend 6 broken leg pre- form impossibilities, but we do say and mean that these Liniments will come nearer working miracles than any thing before discovered. We have thousands of certificates showing how remarkable cures of obstinate of Rheumatism, Neuralgia. Scatica, Caked Breasts Poisonous Bites, Scalds, and Burns, swelled Legs and Stiff Join ts &c. have been effected by it. The certificates all read way, and the sale is constantly increasing We will send these certificates gratis. Some of them may be found around each bottle of Liniment. The Lniments are quick they reliable; they safe and they are cheap Among the ingredients used Witch Hazel, Carbolic, Naphtha, Rock Oil. Mentha and Arnica. There is no hesh bone uscle ailment which they will not relieve and benefit. The White Centaur Liniment is for the human frame, while the Yellow l4niInent is adapted to the tough muscles and flores of horses and animals. For Stiff Joints, Lameness spavin. Ring gbone Swen.y, Calls.

Last week the proprietor of the leading soda water fountain on Jefferson street took up and cancelled our annual pass. We do not regret this act on his part. On the contrary, we are rather glad of it, because a conscientious re- gard for the public safety and q fine sense of our duty in such matters was just impellng uf to say that fountain soda is composed of sawdust, gravel, old glue, aquafortis, leather chips, tan bark, iron filings marble dust, sand, river water, red ink, orange peel, yellow soap, sirup of rheubarb, ammonia, fusil oil, hOOf parings, scrap iron, soot, lard oil. lampblack, boiled tallow and India turnip.

A rather significant third term incident hap pened at the convention of the Republicans of Chester County, Penn., on Tuesday. It was the largest meeting of the kind ever he 'd there. When a speaker, who was making a stirring address, alluded casually to General Grant as a possible Presidential candidate in 1880 there was tremendous outburst of applause which lasted several minutes. Men waved their hats and shouted, and no mention is made of any dissenting voices. It was kind of demon stration which refutes the frequent charge that the Grant movement is confined entirely to a few hungry politicians

THE BEST WHEAT COUNTRY

TIE BEST WHEAT COUNTRY
We find in the Peru Ind. Republic
can, letter from Justice N. V. Nc
Dowell, of this county, from which we
make the following extract:
This is the greatest wheat country
ever saw. Some of the folks of this
country moved to Oregon. but they re-
port back in favor of Minnesota two
to one. l have done this fall, with the
help of All OK team; harvested III acres
of heavy wheat, 2of oats, 4 of barley,
of timothy, of peas, 10 of corn cut
with Il reaper, moved 100 loads of hay
and stacked it; dug 100 bushels OF po-
tatoes and put them in the cellar, pull
ed and cared for II bushels of turnips
and 500 heads of cabbage. And have
plowed sixty acres of land, for wheat
oats and barley in the spring. Finish
ed blowing the last of December. AS
before stated I believe this to lie the
best wheat country in the world, and
if the thousands of poor renters of
Indiana and other states could see this
as it really is, these vacant lands would
be made into pleasant homes in 4 very
| few years.

IF the book ring secure the repeal of
the Merrill law, we shall regard it as 4
triumph of capital which during the
next fifteen years will cost this State
not less than half million of dollars.
Against this attempted fraud, gigantic
as it is and powerful rs are its abbot
tors, we lift our voice in solemn warn
ing:-Mower County Transcript.
But are you willing that the I.egisla-
ture should create great monopoly in
order to break up a book ring? We be-
lieye the Merrill proposition has done a
vast amount Of good in showing the
people that school books can he furn-
ished at half the old rates, but is that
any reason why Merrill or any other
bookseller should have a fifteen year
monopoly Of furnishing the books?
What the State needs is: ~ Uniformi-
ty rs to school books used: ~ a reduc-
tion of Is to so per cent. in the cost of
school books. These ends can best be
attained by a commission to select the
books to be used, and then throwing
the matter open to bids or competition,
and if Merrill or Turkey, or any other
bookseller can underbid the book ring,
give him the contract.
! We believe iii this school book move.
ment, heartily, but the present plan
seems to be exceedingly crude and a
step out of the frying pan into the lire.

THE NARROW:0AU0E.

w. J. Abernethy, the agricultural
editor of the Pioneer-Press, recently
had ride on the Des Moines and Min
neapolis Narrow=Gauge, and has writ
ten Up an interesting. account of the
road Of the route hesays: 81
n The3extensionsof theline is=thezthing
which most interests our people, and on
this point, on the authority of the pres
ident and chief engineer, I am permit
ted to make this statement: The road
will be built this coming summer to
Humboldt county, Iowa, Il distance "
bove Lakin of about forty-tive miles,
which place it will reach in the fall.
Humboldt is the county seat, the loca-
ton Of 4 flourishing college, and is
beautifully situated between the forks
of the Des Moines river, about forty
miles below the Minnesota State line.
The county has made nj ost generous
propositions to the railroad company on
condition of their building the line to
that point, and there will be no Ques-
ton but that the cars will be running
thither before snow flies. From Hum
boldt the next positive place is New
Ulm, in Minnesota, distant about one
hundred and twenty-five miles, which
! is the objective point for the year 1879,
and into which trains for St. Paul and
Minneapolis will be running before the
old year goes out, if the expectations OF
the company are realized.
Of this road as coal road, he says:
''We want your lumber" I'D pres.
Smart. This whole region through
which we run will some day be do> ted
with farm houses and cities, ard it will
open up to your Minneapolis lumber
men the best market they could posi-
bly, select. In return we will carry
back our Iowa coal as the road will
traverse the best coal regions of the
State" For seventy-fve miles n0rtl
| the line runs through the great coal
bearing strata, and so low is the price
Of this fuel that it is sold at the mines
at from S1.75 to So per ton III any guam
tity. Much of it, especially about De!
| Moines, is Of excellent quality, greatly
resembling anthracite, and it is expect
ed that it can be laid down in Mime
apOliS at about half the cost of the lat
ter coal.
Our readers are aware that the mar
row-gauge system, and the narrow
gauge coal road TO Fort Dodge especi
} ally, have been hobbies with the AD
VANCE from the first. We believe il
facts and the facts prove the advantag
rs Of this system over every other, I'LL
less it be for great trans-continenta
} lines, and we are not SIRE but the nal
. row-gauge is best even for these.
At any rate, the most advantageou
road which Worthington could secur
would be a narroW-gauge coal road t
the Iowa mines, and we believe such
/ road will be built in due time.
| The route is projected to Minneap(
lis and St. Paul, crossing the Sioux Cit
I & St. Paul road at Lake Crystal, an
e passing through New Ulm. If thi
, route should be followed, a branch roa
from Humboldt to Worthington, via {
Emmetsbnrg and Spirit Lake, wonl
be all the better for us. The terminr
3 would he ut Worthington making th
3 the coal depot for vast extent Of coul
, try.
