GLENN's SULPHUR SOAP, the ruling speci-
6c for disease, irritation and abrasions of
the skin, and q most salutary beautifier of
the complexion. This admirable article is
an inexpensive substitution sulphur baths,
and is equally as effective in banishing
cutaneous maladies, and relieving the
pangs of rhematism and govt. Redness
and roughness, tan, freckles, pimples, and
indeed every imperfection of the cuticle is
entirely removed by it. 1t is avouched,
by ladies' who have used, to be the most
effective means of clarifying and softening
the skin that they have ever employed; its
health promoting properties are widely
| recognized by medical men. and evidence
| IN Its behalf, emenating from other and
equally respectable sources, precludes any
| reasonable doubt as to the genuineness of
its claims to public confidence. Clothing
and linen from the sick room are disinfect-
ed by it, and it prevents contagion when
the danger of obnoxious disease has been
| incurred by contact Sores and ulcers,
that resist the operation of salves and To-
tions, are healed by it, and it soon relieves
the swelling and pain caused by bruises
and sprains. The opening of the pores,
resulting from the wholesome stimulation
OF the superficial blood vessels that it pro-
duces, is the effect best calculated to ease
the circulation when overheated. and carry
those offensive granulations which disfgure
the cuticle and render existence state of
martydom while they remain. Eruptions,
ailments that ointnents will not cure, are
entirely eradicated by GLENN's SULPHUR

On the Wrong Track.

The Union'S communication from the
"Old Postmaster" at Port Byron contains
one intimation which discloses whom the
writer is aiming at, and which enables US
to say that he is entirely mistaken. He
says:
If my memory is not at fault the gen.
tleman has never been bothered with
Office much since be came to the county.
am aware that he has on several occa-
sions invited himself to be candidate,
and that he invariably comes out the under
dog in the race.
The author of the article to which the
"Old Postmaster" takes the trouble to
reply, certainly never has been bothered
with office since he came to the county,
and what is equally true he never at any
time 10 his life was a candidate for any
Office before the people of this county, OF
anywhere else. Simply case of mistaken
identity, Mr.. Postmaster, that's all Cal
