AT last the sidewalk to the depot
has been completed and the RECORD,
in common with our citizens who
have SO often been obliged to wade
ankle deep through slush. snow and
dust, rejoices. Our city fathers
were little lax on this matter, bat
now that it is done, the RECORD is
willing to say no more about it, and
to give them credit for the many
other desirable improvements they
have made during the past year.

Mr.. S. X. Niles for more than tw enty wears
has devoted himself with great ability and
success to the business Of advertising in the
newspapers in all parts of the country. Dur
ing this long time he has not only built up a
large and prosperous business, but has gather
ed to himself hosts of friends, who will wish
him continued success in his new location in
the substantial granite building, owned bv
Harvard College, 256 Washington street,
over Little, Brown & Co. Advertising is a
great science, and though recognized as an
unavoidable expense in the prosecution of any
enterprise, still there are but few who really
appreciate its immense importance or realize
the wonders it is capable of performing.
Managed with experience, skill and liberality,
we do not believe there was ever an instance
known where it did not WELD great returns
From our long business and personal con-
nection with Mr.. Niles, we know that he is a
master of the art of advertising that his
judgment and advice in advertising may be
relied upon-that he has been repeatedly in
trusted with the PRONUNCIATION of great
enterprises, and that he enjoys the confidence
and respect of the newspaper press and the
public to an extent which it is an honor for
any man to pOssess.-B0stoa Journal.

Good Advice From a Leading Medical
Professor.


The learned doctor says: keep some kind
of tonic medicine always in the house, and
if anyone feels unwell. make free use of it.
But first be sure that it is both harmless as
we'll az meritorious. Put no trust in alcoholic
preparations: their use will lead to intemper-
ance; neither be partial to any remedy that
produces a severe cathartic effect, for
prostration of the nervous system and digestive
organs is sure to follow. The mildest and
best medicine ever invented for strengthen
ing every part of the body and restoring i'm
paired or lost organic functions to their
normal condition. and one which is having
an unparalleled and rapidly increasing sale
in the Eastern States, is Browns Iron Btters
ANY druggist will procure it for you if you
request him to do so, especially when he finds
you cannot be persuaded to take some substi-
tute. 1t does not contain alcohol, and is the
only preparation of Iron that cures headache
and does not blacken' the teeth. 1t is sure

best medicine ever invented for permanently
