Spontaneous Reduction of
Shoulder Dislocated Nearly
Three Years.

A case of dislocation of the shoulder
downward which was cured in Wei.
linguor, Ohio, is SO peculiar in all re.
spects as to be worthy of attention. In
Iowa, about March 18th, 1876, Mrs.
Hamlin, 81 years of age met with the
accident of which We are writing.
The manner of the accident was this /:
she was riding in carriage when the
horses were obliged to cross u washed
out sluiee; the horses jumped, the jerk
threw the lady in such way that her
left arm about midway between the ell
bow and shoulder came with so great
violence against the corner of trunk
that IL caused her to lose consciousness.
When she revived, her arm panied Sc
verely and although in a half hour it
was examined by a surgeon, the SWELL
ing was so great that he did not sue
ceed in reducing the dislocation. By
the use of bandages and cloroform the
pain was temporarily relieved, the arm
remaining swollen and black and blue.
The use of both hot and cold applica-
tions failed to reduce the arm aud it
continued painful even to move a
finger. About two weeks after the &C.
cident the lady went to Faribsuld for
relief, and there the treatment was hot
applications and the use of the electric
battery, continued for about three
weeks " it'll little or no effect. All this
time the arm continued helpless. hav-
ing every symptom of dislocation and
commenced after some months to be
perceptibly smaller than the other arm
and to show signs of incipient paraly-
sis. In October, 1878, DR.. Rust of
Wellington, Ohio, commenced treating
the arm with electricity. The pa
tient began to improve at once, and in
February, 1879, returned west with a
well arm. Her arm is straight and
just as large as the other and she uses
it all the time. She was never con-
scious of any great change in her arm
at any one time, but each time cleo
tricity was used it grew stronger and
felt better.-[Medical Advance.

If your wife makes it unpleasant for
you after buying shoddy coal oil, 90 to
Bowlby & Halls and buy the pure water

ness.
A number of persons have said they
got the best Oysters from US that they
had this year. What does that mean?
A reputation for selling the best goods
lengthens our girt. We don't want q
reputation for the lowest prices, it's too
suggestive of slops, skum, watered stock,
dyspepsia, headache, etc. Pure and
healthy food makes the head right, and
when you are right in the head you will
go to Bowiby & Halls for flour, crack
ers, buckwheat, canned goods, dried beef
shavings, fresh roasted coffee, tea and
everything in their line.
Remember that between December
Goth, 1870, and January I'd, 1880, to
everybody that buys q pound of tea or
over, or dollars worth Of coffee or over,
we give ! pound of pure mixed candy.
This is no money making scheme. We
sell the same goods at the same prices
We do any time in the year.
We have the best assortment of dishes
and glassware in town. Come and look
at them.
