five years in this city.
He Is well and favorably known
In medical and social circles, and is
very enthuiastic in his praises OF this

tell you, my private opinion is that to
dispute the qualities OF St. Jacobs OIL
is, ike Pelton's, a hopeless Gaze Of 'fu

besn druggist in this city for twelve
years, and his opinisn is weighty
one.
Mr.. N. d. Shsvlin, who has for come
time sold the scales manufactured by

pany's ONCE, on Jackson street, near
LASal!e, and he was f'And to be enthu-

A tour of some Of the prominent
wholesale and retail druggists was TAX
IN to find out the extent to which this
remedy is being sold in this city. A.
nong these were Van Schsak, Stsven.

Morrison, Plummer Il Co., Ii. a. Hurl
out & Co. and Buck & RFyner.
Members OF the several firms were in
very case interviewed, and all spoke
II the highest terms OF the oil as a sell
ng article, and said that they had
,re&t difficulty in keeping up their
tock, as tie sales were rapidly in
Nearly all said this was the
,est selling proprietary medicine in the
market. In regard to its efficacy as {
emedy, most of them said that they

Among these latter was Mr.. Peter
