two weeks past, selecting goods tor this
market, are now fully prepared to sup
ply the millions with all the new and
fashionable goods to be found in the mar
kets. Their stock has been selected with
great care, and with especial reference to
the wants of their trade. The styles are
beautiful beyond description, the fabric
excellent, and the prices so low, that to

Persons can only get an idea of the
beauty and magnitude of this immense
stock of goods by seeing it for themselves.
They are fully alive to the fact that goods
must be sold at low prices to command
the attention of cash buyers; and having
determined to sell goods for cash only, will
always be found at the very bottom in
pEices. They ask persons desiring to pur-
chase Spring goods to give their stock a
careful examination, and thereby consult
their own interest.
All the new and beautiful styles in
" Prints, Lawns, Broedaed Damasas, Plain
and figured Delains, Buntings, Cashmeres
in all the desirable colors, Plain and Bro
caded Silks and Satins, together with
every other new and desirable class oil

all other houses in goods, fabricks, and
low prices, as they ever have done. Their
stock of Carpets, of all grades is now

The Great Temperance ReFOrmer Conn
ing.'
Arrangements haye been made with
Francis Murphy originator fthe Murphy
temperance movement, to lecture in Music
Hall in this place on Tuesday evening,
April 18th. Perhaps no name is better
known to-day in this country than that of
Francis Murphy, and as he has never yet
visited this place, there is probably no
lecturer whom the people generally would
have greater desire to see and hear. The
capacity of Music Hall will likely be
taxed to accommodate all who will want
TO attend. The price has been fixed at
5octs., and no extra charge for reserved
seats, which can be secured at Harry
Boyer's drug store, without extra charge.
Secure your seats early.

READ RECENT CUREs.
ScroFuIa Cured When an other Means
Had Been fried without Benefit

Lydia Strong, ofDanville, Ohio, applied
to me in the fall of 1877. / found her in
the following condition: large scrofu-
lous sore on the leg, which commenced in
the knee joint, thirteen years before, but
at this time extended to the hip, The
limb was enormously swollen, and there
were thirty-three openings in different
places, discharging large quantities of
offensive bony matter. She had been
treated by many who regarded as eminent
physicians, and had been bled, cupped,
blistered, mercurialized, etc., all to no
purpose. I commenced treatment by the
use of my remedies, which, in the course
of twelve months effected an entire cure.

To the Public:

COLUMBUS, o., JANUARY 16, 1879.
/ wish again to state my condition: 1
was taken five years ago with Catarrh of
the head and throat, which ran to my
lungs and so reduced me that 1 was obliged
to relinquish all business pursuits. Two
years ago | was living here in Columbus;
but being unable to attend to business, l
left the city and returned to Delaware,
with a view of deriving benefit to my
health, but was dis appointed, as [ con-
tinucd to grow worse. No treatment ben
efitted me, and was finally considered
in the last stage of consumption. In this
seemingly hopeless condition providen-
TALLY saw the testimonials of several
prominent citizens, which induced me to
apply to DR.. Fish blatt, although at the
time L was scarcely able to walk half a
block, being so prostrated and short of
breath, and reduced in weight from $50
to 50 pounds, which was my weight when
l applied to DIR. Fishblatt on the 10Th of
November Under his treatment 1 have
steadily improved. From the first my
Catarrh, Throat and Lungs have under
gone such radical change for the better
that am wholly altered in constitution.
| now breathe freely, and feel as though
| have been rescued, so to speak from the
verge of the grave. | now weigh 10 lbs,
making gain of thirty pounds in two
months under DR.. Fishblatt's treatment.
NV appetite and digestion are good, and
[ feel myself still gaining every day in
healthy blood and flesh. One could scarce
ly believe am the same person, have
changed so in appearance in two months.
l now have every reason to hope that /
shall be permanently restored to my for
mer health. grs=- Gro. W. HUGGINs.

to be able to inform you that 1 have en-

country, and the greatest barbarism of
all was the slave trade. The first mission
was established on the ruins of an old
slave factory. In the course of these
years, this traffic has been abolished, mer-
camille pursuits have been brought into
operation, and in financial view, already
missions have begun to pay, for there is
ten times the cost returned in the way of
trade. Civilization has already extended
so far that the natives are asking eagerly
for the fashions; and soap is an article Of
which the supply never equals the de-
mand. Cleanliness is next to godliness.'
Polygama prevailed even worse than in
Utah, but now Christian marriage is re-
cognized. The tribes are not inferior; are
docile, teachable and shrewd in intellect.
The formation of three written languages
have been accomplished, and the fourth
is in progress. At first the discourage
ments were great, as to educating women
and girls, but now any number are wait
ing for Christians to supply the cost of
schooling ($25 year per scholar), and to
furnish teachers. The Africa of to-day,
with sanitary knowledge of climate and
country acquired, has no well-founded
objections for those whose lives are de-
voted to this work.
