Good Results

Arc always pleasant to contemplate, as
every dyspeptic sufferer who uses Parker.s
Ginger Tonic will attest. To obtain from
this remedy the most gratifying relief when
distressed with headache, low spirits, ner-
vousness, wakefulness, pslpitation of tho
heart, liver disorders, costiveness, pain in
the stomach, heartburn, cramps, etc, is a
pleasant experience that surprises no less
than 1t comforts. Another remarkable fea-
ture Of this remedy is its powerful specific
action on the skin and mucous surfaces of
tho throat and lungs by which Il uufail-
ingly cures the worst cases OF cough, cold
and sore throat. It cures in a wonderfully
short time, removes all soreness from the
lungs, and protects the feeble from con-
sumption. Buy si.00 bottle at McFee's,
or a sample bottle at I5 cts, aud test its
merits.

Trenton Theatrical Entertainment.
There having been quite q dearth of
amnsements in Monroe the past season,
and knowing that Trenton in her un-
dertakings is not usually given to half
way measures, it was with anticipa-
lions OF some pleasure that this re.
porter read the announcement of q
theatrical entertainment to be given at
that place on the evenings of 9th and
18th of March. On our arrival at Muir
phys storehouse, which was comforta-
bly, fitted up for the occasion, in look
ing over the large audience that had
already assembled, we were agreeably
surprised to see that Monroe had
graced the OCCASION with very hand
some representation. The principal
features of the evenings programme
was the dramatic cantata, Trial by
Jury, and the ever langhable comedy
Handy Andy. A breach of promise
trial was something the writer had
never seen, and now the opportunity
was about to be afforded of witnessing
and listening to one, with additional
interest being lent to it by it's rendition
In song. 1t is useless to add that 1t
was rendered in q manner that would
have been no discredit to professional
players. The singing was good, and
the acting In the main displayed con-
siderable histrionic talent.
Did space permit, we would like to
mention each participant by name, but
special notice should be made Of ID. NJ.
Sholars as Judge, j. III. Steel as De-
PENDANT, and Charles Allen as Usher,
who, by their spirited conception
OF their parts, contributed much
to it's success. That Trenton boast.
ed some pretty girls we had often
heard, but not before having had
the opportunity Of judging, we were
surprised to see how justly the claim
was made, when upon the scene APP
peared Miss Lula Drago as Plaintiff,
attired in handsome bridal dress,
accompanied by full complement OF
attendants who, in elegant costumes as
bridesmaids, We'd with her in beauty.
The trial was brought to happy and
