A Wonderful Record.

Myriads of SO called specifics" and
"cures' for Rheumatism have already been
brought before the public, and many of
them have even been endorsed by the GER
tifcates of respectable and prominent citi-
izens, who have derived benefit from auch
preparations. There is no doubt but a
great many of these "Liniments," "Oils,"
etc., SO widely advertised and freely rec
commended for Rheumatism asd painful
complaints of similar nature, have genu-
inc merit and will relieve certain typer of
the complaint named; but when Rheuma-
tism, Neuralgia, and kindred diseaaes have
become chronic and threaten serious re-
suits, you may rest assured that they will
help but very littls. Although not recon-
mend as "infalfible," the peculiar qualities
of ST. JACOBS OIL especially adapt it to
those cases which may be termed "chroI-
ic," and which have previously withstood
all known specifics" as we'll as the pre-
scriptions of the best physicians.
We would mention as an example the
case of Mr.. A. Heilman, Editor of the
Pittsburg Republican, who suffered with
Rheumatism for two years. After vainly
using all the best recommended remedies
and exhausting the skill of the most ex.
perienced physicians without even tempo.
rary relief, it required only two bottles o.
St. Jacobs Oil to effect permanent cure
Mr.. G. Hanni, we'll known citizen o
Youngstown; Ohio, secured for his wife
who for II years had been constant suf
ferer from Neuralgia in the head, the ser
vices of the ablest physicians in the land
but they were unable to do anything TO
her; half bottle of st. Jacobf Oil cures
her. Mr.. VIM. Reinhardt, Elmore, Wis.
reports the case of neighbor who for 2
years had suffered 60 terribly with Rheu
matism that, at times, he could hardl.
move around; a few bottles of St. Jacob
Oil cured him. "To cap the climax" how
ever, Mr.. A. Neiger, of Taylorville, Pa
!, writes that his mother, who had been
continual sufferer with Rheumatism for Ii
past thirty years, used one bottle of
: Jacobs Oil and was Immediately relieve
of all her pain. These are results that tr'
ly deserve to be brought to public motto
l but they are not exceptions, as will be see
by the numerous other certificates frol
all parts of the United States. 1t shoul
; be the duty of every one to call the a
r tention of his suffering friends and neig
g bors to this wonderfully efiicacious prep
o ration, erpecially as the low price of
? cents bottle, places tt within the rea'
. of all persons, rich and poor.

A Solid Rubber Boot.

! The "95 per cent. Boots,p advertised
elsewheresin our columns, are high priced
goods, but they meet want in the COM
munity, for people are tired of wasting
money on cheap adulterations Of Rubber
Boots. The "95" boots are virtually three
pairs of boots in one. All non-wearing
material is excluded, all weak parts
strengthened, and various improvements
added. In every district there is large
number of sensible people, who are willing
TO pay fair price for a good article, ant
the "95" per cent. boot is made for jus
this class. Call and examine these superi
or goods.

Ed. PREss.-In your last issue, Mrs

to missrepresent or insinuate that things
were not carried on right at Miss Dolan's
and Mrs. Bllkeney's table, This mischief
maker who has been a source of annoyance
and creator of disturbances in every thing
she has ever taken part in, shows her ven
omous spirit. If she is not in talking dis
tance, then pen, ink and paper will have
to perform the duty, as she cannot wait
until an opportunity offers for her to crush
them that do not agree with her. She is
one of the few who imagine that her COM
mand should be obeyed and that she is
sprIg of zone of the first families of Som

table that she associated her self with came
out behind the other. Whether it was be-
cause she was identified with the table
is for the spectators to say.
She has shown any thing but the dispo
sition of lady, and if che has any respect
for the name of zone of the first families o

An ImpOsitieu

Is it not an insult to a meehsnae who has
spent a number of years in learnasg his
trade, and who works ten hours day for
four or five hundred dollars year, to be
told that it is proper to pay four times
that amount to clerk in a municipal Of
fee, who has the skill in writig and book
keeping which may be acquired in COM
mercial school in a few months and who
goes to his work at nine O'Clock in the
morning and leaves at three in the after
noon? The mechanic is directly and indi-
rectly taxed to day the salaries of officials,
some who get far more than the salsry of q
clerk and do less work. They are called
the servants of the people; but the free clt-
izens who do the voting have little TO say
in the matter of fixing salaries. Why ls
it that worthy and useful men so patient
ly bear the impositions of spolitical char
lants? Is it not the arrogance shown in
taking for their services so much more
than honest men can earn by patient labor
enough to disgust thinking men.
