and continual desire to u~rinate, with severe,

GUS to endure. Iconsulted one of our resident
physicians, but I rece ived no benefit from the
treatment. and fearing that my symptoms indi-
Gated 'Bright's disease the most dreadful of all
diseases, l made up my mind that 1 must obtain
relief speedily or 1 would be past cure. 1 con-
suited my druggist, Mr.. Weber, and after aseer-
tanning my symptoms ne recommended the use
Of Hunts Remedy, as he knew Of many success
full cures effected by that medicine in similar

before l had used the first bottle 1 found 1 had
received a great benefit. as I~suffered less ps;n,
my water became more natural, and 1 began to
improve so much that the second bottle effected
a complete cure, and my thanks are due to
Hunts Remedy for restored health, and I cheer
fully this most valuable and reliable
medicine to my friends, as L consider it n duty
as we'll as a pleasure to do So"

GENERAL NEWS.
Receiver Dwight Has a Big Task Before
Him, but Takes Hold with Vim.

Receiver Dwight Has a Big Task Before
Him, but Takes Hold with Vim.
Receiver Dwight, of the Toledo, Cincinnati &
st. Louis road, is taking hold in a businesslike
manner. He has telegraphed Instructions to
Treasurer Stewart to close up the Boston office
and come with the company's effects to Toledo,
Mr.. Dwight will act not only as an assignee in
bankruptcy, bat will have all the powers to
carry on the business of the road. The question
heard most frequently in regard to this road is
whether the common stock is to be wiped out or
not. This does not of necessity follow from the
placing of a road in the hands of a receiver, and
will not take place if the statements regarding
the roads business are true. That he has a big
task before him all who are acquainted with the
situation Will admit. He will have vexatious
questions to settle springing up on all sides,
dating back to when the project was first talked
OF; promises which were given when the right of
way was secured, which have not been fulfilled;
debts for supplies furnished which have not
been satisfied, Then he has to look after prom.
ised subsidies which have never been paid, and
really IL will puzzle the young mans brain to
know where to begin,
