This Sarsaparilla is combination of
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the IodideS
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
efficacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
It's ingredients are so skilfully COM
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Of the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
GRITTY to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.

New Real Estate Office.

Samuel NJ. Culbert has entirely re-
modelled the old building, 800 Shiplay
Street and having taken possession of it
himself, has engaged in the real estate
and conveyancing business. 1t was
formely occupied by George S. Hagany,
Justice of the Peace, but it has under
gone such a change for the better that
the place would hardly be known as the
same building anymore. The ground
floor has been lowered, and private
entrance made to the second story where
there are two splendid Offices for rent.
The exterior of the building has also
undergone great change the old red
musty brick having been painted a
beautiful yellow and pointed black.
Mr.. Culbert having been in business
about twenty-five years, and the peo-
pie have a. learned to know him as be-
ing prompt energetic and reliable. He
has an excellent knowledge Of the real
estate business, and being one of the
best pensmen in the city, no better
convryancer can be found than Mr.. Cul-
bert and he will no doubt, as lie de-
serves receive large share Of public

An Immense RefrigeratOr'

The Wells Brothers, butchers in Sth
Street Market, have constructed ama"-
moth refrigerator in which to preserve
their meat in warm weather. 1t is II
feet high, II feet long and feet S inches
wide, and will hold the whole OF four
beeves at one time. The walls
are five inches in thickness, the
three inch space. between the two lin
ings being filled with two thieknesses
of water and air proof lining, aud near
ly three thicknesses of cork.
An immense cavity in the top CT the
structure holds 2270 pounds of ice
which is coustatly kept filed. The
drippings from the ice are carried off by
tin conductors leaving the part where
the meat is kept perfectly dry and
cool. The temperature is usually kept
at 3S and 40 degrees, but can just as
easily be kept at the freezing point.
Meat can be kept perfectly solid and
sweet in this refrigerator for several
weeks.
The Wells Brothers last evening COB
bling up representative of the RE,
PUBLICAN asked him to step into their
refrigerator which he did, hut we must
confess that fond as we are Of cool
shady retreats, this was more than We
had bargained for and we were rather
pleased to get out again before our nose
and fingers got to aching.
After leaving these icy regions, the at
mosphere outside in comparison with
that which We had just left, was very
much like bake oven. The Wells
Brothers cannot help but have soliC
and sweet meat hereafter.

morning to witness justice msted out

but the attendance OF an unusual mum.

At 10.45 the Jail doors were thrown
open and a few short minutes were
given to the spectators to scrutinize
the institution as 1t stood in the jail
yard and make their deductions as best
suited their individual tastes in the mat
ter. In many cases these deductions
were hardly tlattsriug to originality and
such terms as barbarism "dark

proof that the institution didn't gain

THE COURT HOUSE ROW.
The Omces Expirtng-Applicants
at work.

The officers holding positions under
the county and occupying the offices in
the Court House are living, as it we're,
upon nettles of doubt and apprehen-
sion. The terms of the Registrary OF
Wills, Clerk of the Peace and Prothon-
atory are about expiring. The former
at present filed by Sewell c Biggs runs
out about the latter part of October.
This little plum consequently is
receiving the most attention. There
are a number OF applicants; the strong
est of whom is Mr.. Biggs who is asking
for reappointment. His claims are
supported by a strong endorsement from
the leading citizens of the county. The
Governor has already committed him
self so far as to say that he would not
make. any reappointments unless there
were strong reasons why the position
should require a second term from
the same officer.
Mr.. Biggs' taithfulness during his
term of Office is thought to be sufhcient
inducement for a re-appointment.
In case the Governor refuses to re-
appoint Charles MeWhOrter, who while
in the Senate last session rendered
such good service in securing the pas
sage Of the Court House Removal Bill,
will be the successful candidate. lie
has many excellent qualities and his
claims are well presented.

of shooting it, but be was unable to
find either the boys or the dog. The
wound soon healed, however, and
uothing serious was thought of it until

lst $50 requires 40 months.

1t will be seen by this table, that
loans of 5000 upon share mature in
lis months and Of $4O0 upon share in
ia months thus giving the borrower
56 months additional time to pay the
loan: at the same time the non borrow er
finds the valne of his shares increased
from 5000 to S40O in less than half the
time, and from $40O to $500 in less than
one-third the time required for the first

The total average amount paid by a

er the loan natures in long or shorter
