A WONDERFUL MEDICINE
I'l'[@;!lIaY
Certificate of a Prominent Citizen
of Adrian, Mich, who had not
Walked without Clutches for
two years. He threw them away
in "a Hours after the first ap-
piication of Wizard Oil.

DR.. HAMLIN:-When | met your agent
here, In September, had been two years suf-
fering severelywith Rheumatism, half of that
time confined to the house, and three months
at time to my bed. The balance of the
time l was compelled to crawl around upon
clutches. l used medicines without number,
including large quantity of morphine, all of
which proved worse than useless. AS to what
l suffered, the English language cannot tell
it to any one who has not tried it's realities
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelled my
doubts in twenty-four hours. l used bottle
day for ten days. The next morning after
the use of the first bottle,
left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time in two years.
Since thenI have not used them, and can now
split cord of wood as quick as any man in
Adrian. Some of my friends at first thought
such a sudden cure would kill me- but wanted
change, though it should be death.
That all who read this may know how /
nave 6een, will say, when I commenced
using Wizard Oil, l could reach around nv
leg above the knee with one hand.
L was reduced to a mere slxeIc-
ton, and most of the time
when L moved upon
clutches, or tried to stand
without them, L could not raise
either foot from the floor.
used fifteen bottles in all, but have not used
any for two months. l now feel as we'll as
ever did in my life, and have gained thirty five
pounds in flesh. But l must tell you it seems
almost like a dream. You can refer to me a.
often as you wish, and hundreds of the citi
zens of Adrian will testify to the truth OF
| my statements

HUNTBR, of this city, to WILLIAM GuNTnER, of

The ceremony was witnessed by the relatives
Of the contracting parties and few of their most
intimate friends, who report the wedding most
enjoyable to them as well as to the happy pair.
The bridal gifts were numerous, beautiful and
useful; and when all had been sufficiently in
spcctcd and admired and no end Of eongratula-
tions given, Ito which we take the liberty of add
ing those Of the FREE TRADER,) all sat down to
a repast lacking nothing to be perfection. The
hours passed swiftly till the hour arrived for the
departure of Mr.. and Mrs. Gunther for Chicago
and elsewhere on the bridal tour As Mr.. G. is a
travelling agent for a large furniture house OF
Chicago, he and his wife will probably make that
city their home; but the next few months (after
the bridal trip we are informed Mrs. g., to the
delight of her friends, may spend in Ottawa.

The sportsmen Of Serena got together on last
Wednesday night for fox chase. All the hunt
ers Of the town were on hand with their dogs, n
were the PAIRS, Of Rutland, Millgans, Of Grand
Rapids, J. ID. Hammond, Fred 5. Eamcs, VIII
Cary, Thos. McDermott, Of Ottawa, and othcr..
The chase was a failure, the weather being too
dry Only one fox was sprung, by one Of MILL
gan's dogs, but only few Of the party knew Of
it and the chase was soon ended by holing the
fox. One coon comprised the spells Of the eve
ming. Mr. Pvoler informs US that another party
had been over the ground the morning before
and spoiled the sport by frightening the game
which was particularly trying since the spoicr Of
the sport had been invited to join the party.
Some 80 hounds were on hand.

A BIG YIELD.-The largest yield OF corn we
have heard of this season is on the place Of Mr..
W. r. Milligan in Grand Rapids. This week his
men drove through the middle of his corn field
and from two rows about 1876 rods long, picked
40 bushels Of corn, making the yield some %
bushels to the acre. From 1850 acres equally di-
vided into corn and oats Mr.. NJ will obtain some
5000 bushels of grain, 5000 of oats and 1000 OF
corn. Will L. K. Nilligan, from whom we OBJ
tanned these facts, attributes this success to the
fall blowing and not allowing hoof on
the grain fields. AS soon as corn picking is
over, the ground, stalks and all, is plowed for
oat. and the oat stubble for corn, and in the
spring the fields are in splendid shape, free from
Jumps and as mellow as garden-Mr. NJ. also
reports good deal of soft corn (he result OF the
early frosts) in the county though he has none

We urged last week that our readers should
wait until they conld see the fall stock at d.
Heenan IL Co.'s before buying, briefly enumera-
ting few of the specialtes they would show.
This stock is now in greater part received and all
this week was being arranged on the shelves.
The stock is one of the largest ever opened by
the house, containing all the newest styles and
most desirable lines Of dress goods, silks, trim
mings, a superb line of coaks, shawls, white
goods, fannes, blankets, &c., &c. complete
synopsis OF the contents Of the house at this time
would be simply out of the question, but it is
safe to say that no line of desirable goods will be
found wanting in any of the several departments
OF the house, whether dry goods, boots and shoes
or in the grocery house, while prices are at the
bottom.

better Times.

A strong indication OF better times Is the en-
ormous lumber trade that Ottawa has this fall.
In passing II. c. Strawn's lumber yard yester-
day, we counted sixteen teams, all with lumber
or waiting their turn for load.
Mr.. Strawn says this is partly owing to the
fact that Ottawa sells lumber lower than any
other place in the county. He also states that he
was selling lumber to be hauled to Marseilles
which is eight miles nearer Chicago and on the
line OF the canal.

A NEW HORSE DIsEAsE,-A new horse diseased
has appeared of curious nature. We hear of it
through Mr.. VIM. Stevenson, Of South Ottawa.
Having hired the Carew covered wagon for haul
ing passengers, he took it and his team down to
Wcnona to work at the fair there last week. He
put up at the Wood House for the night and
next morning when he went out to feed his hor-
ses he found them in terrible condition as to
their lips, which presented the appearance of
having been doscd with potash or some other
violent caustc, being raw and somewhat burned
away, as were also their gums. As Mr.. Wood
ran rival wagon, and as other rivals were at the
same house, he believed that to get rid of a dan
gerous rival they had dosed his horses. Howev-
err, as it was a suspicion only, he did nothing,
and when his animals were III to be driven home
came home. A few days after, to his amazement,
he discovered that third horse in his stable,
having stood in the next stall to the others af-
fected, began to show similar conditions Of di-
sease, which has convinced him the condition Of
his horses at Wenona was the effect of disease,
and not the result of malpractice by any one.
And he has since heard that a man in Dayton
township has six horses in Il similar condition.
Its cause or name is mystery to him.
