ABANDONED At SEA.

At all times ships Of one kind or another
are floating about at sea, abandoned by
officers and crew, in what seems q hopeless
condition. Some are dIsmantled and mere
hulks, some are swimming keel upwards.
some are water-logged, but being laden
with timber will not sink. but are driven
hlther and thither as the wind and waves
may direct. So people afflicted with
cstarrh, bronchitis, and consumption, are
abandoned by physicians and friends as in
durable, yet thousands of such are annually
restored to perfect health BY the use OF DR..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy and DR.. Plerce's
Golden Medical Discovery. The Cstsrrh
P.medy is unequaled as q soothing and
healing local application, while the Disco
very puriies and cnriches the blood and
imparts tone and vigor to the whole system.

CORRECTING THE JOURNAL.

Eds Press and Dakotaian An article
appeared in your paper of last Saturday
copied from the Sioux City Journal
doing me and my honored family great in
justice. Where the Journal got its infor-
nation will be found ifposslble. The arti.
Gle referred to was in the main correct
that a certain girl had given birth to bastard
twins, but in place of stating the scandal
to have happened three miles west of St.
Helena, the place of locating it was near st.
James, where if live. G. D. Jones, the
father of the girl is a wood-chopper, EN-.
ployed by I, I. Felber, and no blood rela.
ton of any one of my family. The scandal
was so written as to point out to myself
and our location that l take this method Of
branding the villain who wrote the article
as the basest of towards. He knew all
about the case, and must know that G. D..
Jones has no relationship with our family.
Knowing that I was we'll known and G. D.
Jones being an obscure individual many
by reading the vile trash could be deceived.
