AS this QUESTION is frequently asked.
we will simply say that she is lady
who for upwards of thirty years has
untiring devoted her time and talents
as female Physician and nurse,
principally among children. She has
especially studied the constitution and
wants of this numerous class, and, as
a result of this effort. and practical
knowledge, of obtained in lifetime
spent as nurse and physician, she has
compounded a Soothing Syrup. for
children teething. 1t operates like
magic-giving rest and health, and is
moreover, sure to regulate to bowels.
In consequence of this article. Mrs.
Winslow is becoming world-renown-
ed as benefactor of her race; children
certainly do rise up and bless her;
especially is this the case in this city.
Vast quantities of the Soothing Syrup
are daily sold and used here. We
think Mrs, Winslow has immortaIized
her name name by this invaluable
article, and we sincerely believe thou
sands of children have been saved from
an carry grave by its timely use, and
that millions yet unborn will share its
benefits, and unite in calling her bless
ed. No me Their has discharged her
duty to her suffering little ones, in our
opinion, until she has given it the
benefit of Mrs. Winslow's Soothing
Syrup. Try it, mothers-try them

Second Avenue. between 9Th and 9Th
streets. He left Buford s. Co.'S

o'clock. telling Mr.. W. T. Scotch, that he
was not feeling well and would probably
not be back this morning. Mr.. Scotch,
told him not to be uneasy, and to 20 home
and rest himself; that probably il was the
heat. Bollman started for home, and had
hardly got inside the house. when he was
taken With violent vomiting and chilIs,

Michael Bollman. of Rural. and an uncle

Eoprth OF July.

Il has been suggested that, IN order to
present some inducement to military and
civil societies to attend, from abroad on
the Fourth of July, that dinner be spread
for all of the invited guests. This is q
good suggestion and would certainly be the
means OF getting larger turnout. The
celebration is in the hands of the citizens
now. and if the committees appointed go
to work, Rock Island can get up the boss"

Lawrence Barrett as 'Richslisu."

Lawrence Barrett as "Richelisu."
The historical play of ''Richelieu." by
Bulwer Lytton, was selected by Mr.. Law
renee Barrett, as the one in which he
would make his fret appearance to q Rock
Island audience A very large, apprecia-
tive and fashionable assemblsee greeted
Mr.. Barrett. and the hearty applause, as
"RicheIieu" himself remarks. in the right
places, indicated clearly how closely and
critically they followed the reading of the
actor. The merit of the drama of Richie
lieu" has been SO thoroughly established
that little need be said on that head, but
to bring out it's entire beauties, it requires
an actor of the very first rank to unfold
the full force that lies hidden in the mary
subtle sayings. some of which have becon g
house hold words. The acting of Mr..
Barrett from the time be appeared in the
second scene of the first act. till
the curtain fell. was study. and kept the
most critical listener attentive to the most
trivial thing he would do. The feeble
crafty old man reused by the indominatable
spirit within him. to forget his age and
physical weakness. was all admirably
portrayed and so real that the imperson-
alton became q reality. The touches of
human nature which showed beneath the
priestly robes. and makes the whole world
kin, were done with a delicacy, and dis
missed with a finish (which is difficult of
description. The more denunciatory and
declgmatory portions of the character
were done with force and vigor. which
seemed almost marvellous when contrasted
with the feeble old man, broken in mind
and spirit. as Mr.. Barrett, 'impresses the
audience. for the effect of showing the
marked contrast when he is again asked
to resume the government OF France.
Another point which marks the quality of
Mr. Barrels acting is the faithfulness OF
detail, even to the most trivial things he
has to do or words to utter. The COM
psny were excellent and received frequent
applause.
This evening Mr.. Barrett will play at Da-
venport in ''Yorick's Love, ''and will doubt
less have a crowded house as he deserves
