My son had troublesome catarrh Of the
head and throat. For more than two years
we sought medical aid in vain. watched the
gradual progress Of the disease with great
deal Of anxiety, and while following strictly
the treatment and advice of leadiIg physi-
clans, saw my son from day to day grow
worse. His hearing became so badly affect
ed that he could not hear the ticking of a
watch when held close to the ear. Last May
/ took him to DR.. Prentice, Is Dryades
street, and from that day he began to i'm
prove and continued to grow better, until he
could hear the same watch six feet from his
ear, Cr could hear it ticking in ais pocket.
His general health has improved and all bad
symptoms have passed away. His hearing
is now so acute that he can distinguish the
faintest discord in music, in which he is
now progressing very finely. In short, DR..
Prentice cured my son of his catarrh and
deafness. l sincerely feel that can recon-
mend DR.. Prentice as possessed of the high
est skill and ability, and take the greatest
pleasure in adding my testimonial to DR..
Prentice's long list of triumphs.

About twelve years ago the daylight of my
life went out and left me in total darkness
But ray of bright hope found its way into
my Swallowed heart six years ago, when ]
was told of and taken to the most eminent
oculst of Chicago. was taken to the Eye
lnhrmary, chlorotorm was gwen me and
both eyes were operated on for cataract
Well, after several weeks of horrid suffering
one of my eyes run entirely out and the 9TH
er remained totally blind. Then all hope tru
ly departed Fl ON my life. Never was there
an hour from that time that death would
have been unwelcome, Until the gath of De-
cember, 1888, when was taken to see DR.
Prentice. He at once operated on my re-
naming eye, without giving me chloroform OF
anything of that nature, and in one week
from that time, as the first bright sun rose
on the New Year of 1884, the bandage was
removed from my eye and could see! Thank
God, could see. BENJAMIN HERBAUGa,

He seemed innocent, chiIdlike, coniding,
That youth who snapped horses with me,
But I've known Of such mild manners hiding
Duplicity frightful to see,
And horse trades horse trade. Each party
Is always supposed to intend
To be crooked. I therefore was hearty
In trying to keep up my end.
And he lied like the mischief, knew it,
About his brown five year old-mare!
Why, wondered, sir, how he could do it,
With such frank, innocent air.
For my own part make no pretension
That all that told him was true;
What is more neglected to mention
Some outs my horse had, that knew.
But borse trades horse trade, remember!
The day is supposed to be cold
As the coolest we get in December
For him who turns out to be sold.
Well, we traded, and would you believe me
I've found out by driving that mare
That the youth didn't try to deceive,
Rut told the thing honest and square.

REMARKABLE CURE.-I was suffering with
cough and pain in my side for the past two years
and grew extremely weak. During that time
had several physicians attending me, but deriving
no benefit from heirtreatment. They pronounced
my disease consumption. I concluded to try
Schroeder's Iron Tonic, not expecting it to cure
me, but merely using it as an appetizer and tonic
After using three bottles I was entirely cured of
my disease and feel stronger than have for the

And so he had. Abashed and terri
fed at the discovery of his unsuccessful
swindle, and in hopes of propitiating
the court, he at once gave his check for
the amount due Mr.. Campbell, and paid
the costs.
In view of his confession, he was let
