Protection from Malaria.

The preventive is the far-famed Southern
remedy, Simmons Liver Regulator, purely
vegetable tonic cathartic and Alternative. 1t
acts more promptly in surfing all forms of
malarial diseases than calomel or quinine,
without any OF the Injurious consequences
which follow their use. Take the Regula-
tor and it will keep your liver, bowels and
kidneys in perfect order, and you will never
have an experimental knowledge of the
meaning of the word malaria.

Not having had any circus for some time the
people are willing to look with favor upon al
most anything in the line of street parades.
Therefore when the agricultural dealers harness
the steam down to a portable engine and draw
a heavy threshng machine after it, using horses
only to hold up the end of the pole and guide
the train along the streets, over bridge and up
and down hill, the average public hail with de-
light the change and look Oh with considela.

passes. During the past week the Ottawa deal

AYERS CATTTARTIC PILLS are the best
of all purgativcs for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized na-

ciiectual purgativc Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
ctable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coatcd, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs OF the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent

ProhibitiOnists,

Prohibition received new impetus on Thurs.
day in its county convention which was callcd.,o
select delegates to the Bloomington convention.
Joel T. Buckley, Of Streator, occupied the chair,
and c. &. Campbell. of Ottawa, was elected Sec
retary. The number of delegates was not large,
probably about twenty five; but they made up in
enthusiasm what was lacking in numbers. Ey-
erything ran smoothly through the selection of
the sixteen delegates down to the time when DR..
Taylor, of Streator, offered a resolution which
proclaimed that in the sense of this convention
it was contrary to the interests of prohibition for
the party to coalesce with any of the old parties
In the matter Of either state or county nomina.
tions, with instructions to the delegates TO so
vote in the state convention. Rev. Mr.. Shay, of
Streator, at once obtained the floor and opposed
the measure, saying that as a matter of policy it
would be better to force the old parties to take
up the principles and also that each particular
locality Of prohibitonists should be allowed to
regulate this matter to suit themselves, Jacob
Bane, of Ottawa, favored the resolution and was
in for prohibition padding It's own canoe, from
this time henceforth and forever. He had cut
loose from all old ties, severed his connections
and started on a "march through Georgia"
again. Matlock and Campbell, Of Ottawa, were
of the same opinion; SO was DR.. Glover of La
Sale. Esquire Burwell, of Seneca, hated to tear
himself away from the republicans, and hoped
for this reformation. He didn't like the resolu-
tion. For two hours or more this sort of thing
was kept up. Motions TO amend to reconsider,
to table and SO on were made so rapily that the
Dewildered chairman lost all control of himself
and the meeting until few greenbackers came
in; and among the number was Mr.. Plumb, who
were permitted to make few suggestions on
parliamentary rules when the tangle was unrav-
eled and the resolution shorn of its instructions
to the delegates. The secretary announced that
there were some few expenses to be met, and
thereupon the hat was passed around and was
literally received. The matter of time for call
ing county convention 10 select delegates to
the congressional convention and to nominate
full county ticket was left with the central COM
mittec.
