VEGET Tine
Purifles the Blood and Gives

DU QUoTS, ILL, Jan. 81, 1875.
Mr.. II, r. STEVENS -
Dear sir.-Your " yegetlne' has been Going
wonders for me-. Have been having the Chills
and Fever, contracted In the swamps OF the
south, nothing giving me relief until / began
the use OF your Vegetine, 1t giving INT immedl-
ate relief, toning up my system, purifying my
blood, giving strength; whereas all other medt-
cines weakened me ann filled my system with
poison; and | am satisfied that II families that
live In the ague districts OF the South and West
would take Vegetine two or three times a week,
they would not be troubled with the 'Chills" or
the malignant Fevers that prevail at certain
times OF the year, save doctors bills, and live 70
q good old age.
Respectfully yours,

CREAM EATING. - Mr.. Charles A.
Holmes, says in the Rural Home, that
though he was born and brought up on
a farm, he never remembers eating
cream until his first visit 10 New York
city, where a friend invited him to a
lunch house called "The Dairy" He
ate there a bowl of cream $50 called
probably two-thirds milk and brown
bread, and was ever after partial to that
diet, = In fact, in nine cases out
of ten he takes nothing else for supper
and is healthier and happier therefor,
Cream is more palatable and healthfuI
than butter, and less expensive. Sweet
cream! how city people would smack
their lips over the thought, yet farmers
do not seem to use it freely as food.
Baked sweet apples and strawberries
and cream-what dish can be more en-
tlcing? Butter eating is a habit that
grows on M like smoking; we eat II
in our travels even If it has a bad taste,
rather than take the sweet, fragrant
bread alone; then we eat more and
more as the years go by, until we dis
pose of a quarter Of a pound daily
without being conscious OF it. Add to
this the fat Of meats, aud that used by
the good wife as shortening" and Is
1t a wonder that the doctor is the mon
eyed man of the town. Try the milk
aud cream cure. Season it if you will,
call 1t butter If you Will, but try 1t and
see If tho hard times and other disor-
ders do not begin to disappear.

A Pleasant Surprise.

Last evening John Ohlweiler was com
pletely surprised By the ladies of Eudora
Lodge. The party was 50 well planned
that John never suspicioned what was ur
until he was ushered into the presence Of
the assembled guests. John had arranged
to go to the Pinafore entertainment q.
Haper's Theatre, but was pursuaded tc
accept an invitation. to card party at
Fred Cramer's and In company with his
wife started for Fred's house. Arriving
there he was surprised to find no one
home, and further that they had gone to
see Pinafofe. John thought this was
rather shabby treatment and started for
resolving to get even with Fred When
he went home however, and saw the
party there, John naturally dropped"
and then began the fun. The whole party
repaired to Turner Hall, where fine re-
past was prepared by the ladies after
which dancing began ana was continued
until o'clock this morning. John
Bleuer's orchestra furnished the music.
1t was one of the most pleasant events of
the season, and enjoyed by all who were
present. About thirty couple participat-
ed. with j. w. Matthews as floor manager.

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
tificates of respectable and prominent
citizens who have derived bene-
fit from such preparations. There
! is no doubt that o great many
of these 'Liniments," ''Oils," etc, SO
widely advertised and freely recommended
| for Rheumatism and painful complaints of
similar nature, have genuine merit, and
will relieve certain types of the com plaints
named; but when Rheumatism, Neuralgia,
and kindred diseases have become chronic
and threaten serious results, you may rest
assured that they will help but very little,
| Although not recommend as "infallibe, V
| the peculiar qualities of ST. JACOBS OIL
especially adapt it to those cases which
may beEtermed "chronic" and which have
previously withstood all known specifies"
as we'll as the prescriptions Of the best
| physicians.
We would mention, as an example, the
case of Mr., A HeilmeD, Editor of the
| Pittsburgh Republican, who suffered with
/ rheumatism for two years. After vaiDty
using all the best recommended remedies,
and exhausting the skill of the most ex
perienoed physicians. without even tenn
porary relief, it required only two Bottles
of ST. JACOBS On TO effect permanent
cure. Mr.. G. Hanpi. well known cis-
zen Of Youngstown, Ohio, secured for bis
wife, who for twelve years had been con.
slant sufferer from Neuralgia in the head,
the services of the ablest physicians of the
land, they were unable to do anything for
her; half bottle of ST JACOBS On cured
her, Mr.. VIM. Reinhart, Elmore, Wis,
reports the case of neghbor who for
twenty-four years had suffered so terribly
with Rheumatism that, at times, he could
hardly move around: few bottles of ST.
JACOBS On cured him, TO cap the eli
max" however, Mr.. A Neiger of Taylor
vile, Pa, writes, that his mother, who-had
been a continual sufferer with Rhe1-
matism for the past thirty years, used one
bottle of ST, JACOBS On and was i'm
mediately relieved of all pain. These are
results which truly deserve to be brought
to public notice: but they are not excep-
tons, as will be seen by the numerous
other certificates from all parts of the Uni
ted States. 1t should be the duty of every
one to call the attention of his suffering
friends and neighbors to this wonderfully
efiicacious preparation, especially as the
low price of SO cents a bottle places it
within the reach of all persons, rich and
poor.
