In great many eases a single dose has
been sufficient for 4 cure, and whole

If its use is continued in smaller doses
for week or two after tho disease has
been checked, more ESPECIALLY in
difficult and long-standing cases.
Usually this medicine will net require
any aid to keep the bowels in good or

require carthetic medicine, after
having taken three or four doses ofthe
Trnic. single dose of BULLS VEG
ETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be
sufficient.

changed from firm TO corporation
under the name of L. NJ. Rumsey

A Pninted Remark.

Messrs Nicely & Arnold, the we'll
known druggists, purchase goods eve
nv week, and always keep fresh and
full supply. They pay cash and get
the discounts, and hence sell at modcr-
ate prices. None but experienced men
are employed in the prescription de-
partmeat, and the character ofthe pro.

The Reason

Why l. w. Harper's Nelson County

in the manufacture of the Harper, the
large Capital OF the Distiller which
enables him to hold his Whiskey ua>
til it has fully matured, together with
the fact that the Whiskey is bought

WORDS OF TRUTH AND So
BERNEss.
A Few Remarks About n Live
II and Liberal Merchant.


| /. mas be taken rs rule that sue
/ cess Is the reward Of merit. This
principle is not less true in the mer-
.antile lire than in the other voca-
ions. With industry to push forward
business. with pluck TO stay with il
! ind an iron determination to make it
win, no man possessing these ster-
ling qualifications can be kept under.
These suggestions turn our attention
to a case in point, in the person of Mr..
VIM. Holland, one of the most thor
ough, reliable and afable merchants
| in this or any other place, aud
who possesses in very remarkable de-
gree those winning business charac-
teristics, viz. industry, pl uck and
determination. Nature seems to
have fitted certain persons for certain
callings in life, and to know MIR.
Holland is but to recognize his ex-
quisite taste, his genial temperament
and his ability to please his numerous
patrons-strong Indications that be
was a natural born merchant.
An inspection of the splendid stores
of Hollands will convince the most
skeptical that the proprietor is wide
awake and active man.
DRESS GOODS.
In the dress goods department
may be found foreign and domestic
fabrics of the finest texture and most
charming variety, embracing a special
assortment of trimmings and buttons,
hosiery gloves, fichus, scarfs, ribbons,
parasols, fans, ETC., etc, of:the very
latest, which goods cannot be surpass-
ed in this or aay other market.
HoUsE-KEEPERs' ARTICLES.
AS an item of interest it may be
stated that Holland has superb
stock oftable damask. napkins, doyles,
tOWClS, CuItalHS anu Sut vain hCs,
which for quality and price cannot
fail TO please.
SHOES FOR LADIES AND MEN.
Shoes and slippers for ladies, chill
dren and men, of the most approved
brands and of the best quality, sold at
close margin prices at this temple of
fashion.
CLOTHING.
There has been a perfect rush for
those nobby suits since their arrival
from the East, and yet old and young
whenever they have chat with Capt.
Sullivan or Mr.. Mccall and want
anything in the clothing line, never
leave the house without purchasing,
because the goods are there and prices
suit lean as well as fat pocket books.
GENTS FURNISHING GOODS.
In this line there is superb selec-
ton embracing every article usually
included in gents furnishing goods.
The reputation of Mr.. Holland as
live aud progressive business man
is second to that of no one and he
solicits trade, guaranteeing prices
as low as the lowest and the quality
as good as the best in its line.
