DR.. Reynolds, the reformed drunkard
and originator Of the red-ribbon reform
clubs tall successful temperance lecturers
are reformed drunkards) has engaged
rooms at the Harper House and is expect
ed to arrive in the city on tomorrow Fri
day evening. He will probably give the
bard drinkers here twist, and those who
come under this classification may look out
for him. We are told by the Dixon Sun
that DR.. Reynolds is a man of fine appear
ance, tall, finely proportional and possess
ed of dignifed affability. With these at
tributes, and very little more that would
appear to contribute to his success, he
succeeds in producing effects vainly at
tempted by many gifted man. He can
not by any stretch of the Imagination be
called lecturer, for as public speaker he
appears to possess all the qualifications
which he should not possess and very few
of those-either natural or acquired
which we look for from the rostrum. And
yet his success as an organizer is something
wonderful He simply tells the story OF
his experience, in somewhat egotistical
way-which perhaps is to a certain ex-
tent unavoidable clearly the start
ing point in the downward career of the
drunkard, andscreates the conviction in the
minds of moderate drinkers that it is just
as we'll to stop. He then presents his plar
of reformation, which is certainly unob-
jectable, and without any urging, succeeds
10 obtaining the cooperation of all classes
in the community. His addresses are
neither eloquent, brilliant. powerful Of
even humorous, and yet he not only
succeeds in interesting his large audiences
but, what is more difficult, while leaving
them perfectly free to do as they ehoos
about assuming the red ribbon, he succeed
in persuading very large proportion Q
them to do just what he wishes. Judge'
by the usual standard, DR.. Res nolds is
very feeble instrumentahty; judged by tn
result of his work, he is a power in tn
Temperance reform. Aud after all, tn
magnitude of the work accomplished, ant
not the characteristics of the individual, i
the object of most importance.

A Suggestion to the TRAVELLING Public.

A Suggestion to the Travelling Public.
Tourists, emigrants and mariners find
that Hostetters Stomach Bitters is medi-
cinal safeguard against unhealthful infiu-
ences, upon which they can implicitly rely,
since it prevents the effects that unhealthy
climate, vitiated atmosphere, unacustomed
or unwholesome diet, bad water, or other
conditions unfavorable to health would
otherwise produce. On long voyages, or
journeys by land in ATTITUDES adjacent to
the equator. it is especially useful
as preventive of the febrile complaints
and disorders of the stomach, liver and
bowels, which are apt to attack natives OF
the temperate zones sojourning or
travelling in such regions, and it is
an excellent protection against the infiu-
ence of extreme cold, sudden changes OF
temperature, exposure to damp or extreme
fatigue. 1t not only prevents intermit.
tent aud remittent fever. and other disea-
SEES of a malarial type, but eradicates them,
fact which has been notorious for years
past in North and South America, Mexico
the West Indies, Australia and other
countries.
