II New York recently, a call was made up
. on the genial doctor. lie occupies tn,
l. two lower floors Of building on th,
Q Broadway side of Union square, in on,
j of the best business locations in the ci
II ty. Ga the upper of these floors is hi
consulting parlors and lecture room
! a very tasteiully and extensively fur
g nished apartments whose Luxurious
g lounges and chairs are often filled by
:, learned and fashionable audiences wht
/. gather to hear the doctor expound hi
&. theories on the cause and cure of dis
= ease. His practice is large, and grow
q ing among the best classes. The lower
or basement floor is under charge Of
DR.. Blanchards clerk and assistant
r who is genial gentleman and skill.
i full and accomplished engineer, who as.
: sists the doctor greatly in putting his
, plans and inventions into practical
, shape. Here DIR. BIS various RENE
dies are retailed, and here also the Wis.,
itor may obtain draught of his Blood
and Nerve Food in milk, or cup OF
delicious coffee prepared in the BlaD-
chard Coffee pot, in which by tie way
quite business is done, requiring the
constant attendance of girl. The doc
tors mandatory in another part of the
city was not visited, but the sale of his
Food Cures is very large, reaching many
thousands of dollars yearly.
: Several of DIR. Blanchard's mecbaD-
ical inventions are securing merited
recognition and bid fair to prove ex-
tremely valuable. One of the latest OF
these is contrivance for saving and
utilizing large part of the waste heat
of a steam engine for the purpose OF
saving fuel. This has been tested dur
ing the past season on the engine at
the Blanchard Mechanical Exposition
Building in this place, ard Mr.. Norton,
his engineer, assures MS that it has re-
duced the consumption of coal by at
least one-half. Some important i'm
provements have been devised in this
apparatus.
We are happy to note DR.. Blanchard's
success. which we believe he has de-
served by his pluck and his faith in
himself. He has, we understand, sur
mounted the financial difficulties which
beset him few years since and, if visi-
Bile indications are to be trusted, is OH
the road to wealth. We saw evidence
that his business judgment is recognised
and consulted by his friends in the city,
which speaks more plainly than any
thing else for his standing in business
circles.
No Middleburian who visits New
York should fail to call upon DR.. Dlan-
chard. AT least, if he treats them ss
well as he did the writer, we can prom
Use them famous time, and they will
know more of the citNand of city fe
than they ever did before.
The fall term of the Graded school
will close with an entertainment on the
evening of Wednesday, November "a,
commencing at z O'Clock. An admis-
sion fee of fifteen cents will be re-
coived from those not pupils, the re-
ceipts to be devoted to the purchase OF
much needed reference books and
maps for the use of the school. A few
reserved seats will be sold at twenty
FIVE cents. These can be found at AL
denis on and after Saturday. the Goth
instant. Much more money is needed
at once for the purpose above men,
toned then can be obtained in this
way. The investment of at least two
hundred dollars in books and maps for
the use of both teachers and scholars
would be of incalculable advantage,
and would pay the highest rate of inter
est. Will not some friend of youth re-
member this want? The next term
commences on Monday, December 6.
