years ago.
1t has been suggested that the Cairo
police force be uniformed so that they NAV
be easily distinguished from ordinary citi.
zens. There are to this suggestion, as to
every other that could be made, two sides,
each susceptible OF being well sustained
by reasons. Those who favor it say that
the fact that nearly all large cities have
their police officers uniformed IS q sufficient
proof that 1t is benefit in many
respects. Strangers coming into the
city who may wish to find
any certain place will know at once from
whom to obtain reliable information as to
the locality Of their destination, and arc
not compelled to depend upon the first per-
son they meet, who may be shark, looking
for prey in the form of just such persons as
the stranger is and lead him where he can
pest carry out his purpose Of robbery, or
something worse. Strangers coming into
the city where the police are not uniform
ed, will pass an officer half q dozen times
without knowing it, and arc
liable to fall victim to
any sharper. On the other hand, the po.

From ssThe Times.,

EditorSef the Times:-I have been
watching the correspondence in your
paper for the past few weeks with
much interest. Having been in the
practice of medicine for many years.
l have learned to have no confidence
in the many proprietary medicines
which are on the market, and it was
ton given by DR.. Bates, and the knowl-
edge 1 had of his veracity and ability
as Il physician that ever led me to lay
aside my long existing prejudice TO try
the only wonderful remedy, named
Kenaali's SPAWN Cure, which find
SO many of your readers have also
found to be SO valuable. Rheumatism
has afflicted me for years, and with all
the skill l have professed to have in
treating others I found myself unable
to do anything to cure myself entirely.
After suffering for years the difficulty
became located in my hip and nothing
that / could do seem ed to affect it until
L began to use Kendall's SPAWN Cure,
which has cured me completely. In
all my experience as physician have
never been able to make any com
pound which penetrates so thoroughly
and works so admirably in removing
old standing ailments, aud at the same
time hardly produce any irritation of
the skin. 1t has done such wonders
with me that have the utmost conf
dence in its efficacy, and can recon-
mend it with the confidence that the
do not claim too much for
it. Respectfully,

A new swindle upon unsuspecting
farmers has been brought to light.
Swindler No. l calls upon a farmer
with patent wagon tongue, and in
forms him that, having made a big
thing out of it, he is on his way home
with only this county to sell. He tells
the farmer that he can have it for $3.50
and if he wants it to write to him. In
few days patent right man No.
comes along. He has heard that the
farmer has the right of the county for
the patent wagon tongue, and as he
made big thing Of it in Nebraska, he
wants to buy the right of the county,
aud offers the farmer $500, and pays
$40 to bind the bargain. The farmer
writes to No. and sends him his note
for $3.50. He never hears of either of
the men again, but his note comes up
for collection in a neighboring town.
and Mr.. Farmer is out $240.-[ Elk.
