OBTAINTHEBESTLIGHT

In order to obtain the best light, par
ticular attention is requested to the fol-
lowing points: Clean lamps will prevent
| the wick becoming clogged with dirt.
Keep the lamps clean; otherwise par
ticles of dirt will clog the wick and pre-
vent free flow of oil TO the flame. Care
should also be taken that no dirt or other
foreign substance be present in the oil
itself. Particles of dust and other i'm
purities that the oil may contain will
naturally fill the pores of the fabric, thus
diminishing its ability to take up the oil
as fast as it is burned.
Fill the lamps every day, so that the
oil will have less distance to be drawn to
the flame.
Select thick, loosely woven wicks, thus
providing for full supply of oil to the
flame.
Be very particular to select wicks that
are loosely woven, free from sizing or any
foreign substance, adapted to move easily
in the tube, and of proper thickness to
supply oil to the fame in sufficient
quantity to give She required light.
1t is evident that q thin, fiat wick, such
as is commonly sold, cannot draw suffi-
cient oil to feed the flame.
We have known instances where new
wick was used without obtaining a goO1
light, but by exchanging the wick for
one of "The Wamsutta Wick, perfect
ly satisfactory result followed. If you
use any other wick than a "Wamsutta"
they wilt be very much improved by
boiling for one-half hour in clean water,
and carefully drying before using.
To test the merits of the "Wamsutta
Wick" over those of any other manu-
facture, we would recommend that you
make fair trial of the wick with others.
Burners must have the air passages
unobstructed to provide for good
draught.
Keep the burner clean and see that all
the air passages are a0aOb8tructed.
Without q good draught OF air to the
flame there can be no perfect combustion,
and without perfect combustion an un-
pleasant odor arises. Boiling the burn
ers in soda water is effactual in thorough
ly cleaning them, good results will often
follow-it cannot do the burner harm.
Imperfect combustion is the cause of
wicl1s crusting and emitting al unpIeas-
ant odor.
To trim the wick, use pair OF sharp
shears, leaving part Of the blacllened
or charred part remaining, and trim the
remaining part to the shape of the cone.
a very light crust only should form dur
ing an evenings burning. Ii lamp
doesn't give it's natural flame it will not
avail to turn up the wick.
Chimueys-Chimney should be SO
adapted TO the burners that at their seat
no possible chance be left for an increase
OF air inlets. other than that intended for
the proper volume of the flame, and for
the same purpose the length of the chin
ney should be Of such make as is adapt
ed to the burner.

COMING AGAIN.
DIR. 1sIsHBLATT WILL MAKE ANOTHER VISIT
TO MANT1owoC, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER
Is. TESTIMONIALS FROM MANY
RESIDENTS OF THIS CITY,

The testimonials of DR.. Fishblatt from
residents of Manitowoc are sufficient in
themselves to convince those who do not
know of his skill as a physician. The
gentlemen whose names appear with the
testimonials were treated by DR.. Fishblutt
during his last visit here, and can be seen
personally by anyone wishingto see5them.
Their genuiness cannot be brought lato
question. Many other residents of Man.
tOwoc are ready to add their testimony ~
that already given. 1t should be remen.-
bered that the doctor can remain only
two days i'll Mausten. His engagements
IN other cities will rot permit him to
remain longer.
Inyalids have found in the doctor
real benefactor. He has given them
courage and strength after years Of suffer-
ing and despair. Where other physicians
nave failed, DIR. Fishblatt has succeeded.
He does not promise to cure all diseases
which human flesh is heir to. LII he eau
not do You good he will frankly tell you
SO. No consultation fee is asked
During his last visit here DIR. Fishblatt's
parlors at the Williams House were
crowded. Many came from neighboring
of every character. and particularly for
lung diseases, DIR. Fishblatt's method of
treatment is beneficial. His dispensary
ut GAINESVILLE, Wis. is tho Mecca of hun
dreds OF iEyaiids, and few have gone in
vain.
If you are suffering from disease of
any character call on DIR. Fishblatt on
MS arrival in Manitowoc lay your disease
before him, and be assured of sympathy
and aid. DR.. Fishblatt's great success
is simply the result of years of patient
study and research. Few men are better
versed in everything pertaining to tho
human system. He has carefully investi-
gated The cause of the diseases, so he
readily cures them. His motto is to re-
move first the cause of the disease.
After that cure is certain.
Dr.. Fishhlatt's advertisement in en-
other column of this paper speaks for
itself, and should he read by every
invalid. BE of good cheer all We who
have suffered long. Hope should last
through life, and there may be more
than hope for you III what DR.. F'ishblatt
has to offer. Be sure aud see him.

The very strong endorsement gwen 10
DIR. Flshblatt by the medical profession
aud testimony of those upon whom he
effected wonderful cures have rendered
his movements of much interest to the
afflicted. The cures he has affected in
the city aud in many other places are So
we'll authenticated that no one can doubt
his competence to do Just what he pro-
fesses TO do; and as there are but few
who really come up to their professions
of skill aud ability in treating the dis
eases that atllict humanity, it is right to
pairouiZe man like DR.. Fishblatt, who
does all he promises to perform. The
treatment of diseases which mar the hap
piness of thousands of people, has secur
ed him en- immense practice, and likely
he will be crowded with patients during
his visit here. Read the following testi-
monials IN very special cases:
From the doctors own home. Read
what Mrs. Finley says. Blrrenness

Mrs. f, aged 50, had been married
four years, but had borne no children,
though she and her husband ardently
desired offspring. She had suffered with
Leueorrhoea, Ovarian pains and painful
periods for several years, as result of
arrangement of the womb and came to
ne for advice in her case. | prescribed
course Of treatment which not only
restored her health, but removed the
barrenness, and she is now happy
mother. Mrs. -. aged 27, accompanied
by her husband, consulted me in June,
1882. They had been married FIVE years
and were both apparently healthy but
they had never been blessed with chill
dren. [ furnished them with treatment
and now they write: Baby has COM
menced to creep. He is a lovely one. "
We receive such letters often from our
patients.
Mrs. III. ". Andrews has been a con-
slant sufferer for years previous to TAX
ing my treatment. She had weakness
in knees, bearing down pains, pains in
small OF the back, headache and irregu.
larities. She had been unable to attend
to household cares for long time, al
though she could i'll afford to empty help.
After one month under my treatment she
was able TO attend to her household du-
ties, and in six months was perfectly well.
Peculiar Case Cured.-Mrs. Mary
IltcncOCh, WHO fe5lutS near lElS village

has been a constant sufferer for years
previous to taking our treatment; she
had weakness of the knees, pain in the
small OF the back, bearing down rains,
palpitation and futtering of the heart,
displacement of tho womb, back, stom
ach and general debility. She had been
unable to attend to her housework for
long time, although she could i'll afford
TO employ help. After taking treatment
one month, she was able to attend to her
duties, and in four months was perma-
nently cured.

RIVERSIDE STEEL NAILS.
WE ARE IN FAVOR OF A CHANGE !

When you see blue brand or a keg
of nails purchased of the undersigned,
you will find on examination, it contains
Riverside Steel Nails, which for many
reasons are superior to any nails made.
Because they excel iron nails in ap-
pearance and quality.
They are entirely free from scale and
dust.
They are stronger and more uniformly
made.
They are made smaller in size.
There are no split or imperfect nails in
the keg.
Their holding capacity is stronger than
any other.
There are more perfect nails to the
pound than any other nail made; three
nails less per pound than the standard of
10d., means 800 nails to keg, which is
5 lbs; this will put on 500 feet of lum-
Der. They are the perfect nail of the
day. Try them. Test them! For
smoothness-for nice driving into either
soft or hard wood, they are unexcelled.
The cost is but trife above the price of
Iron Nails. Send for sample orders.
Eli we ask is that you give them trial.

IL issuing papers to persons desirous Of
becoming citizens, while outside his o flee
in this city. The Pilot does not know
that such thing was done but granting
it was, is it such heinous offense as to
merit newspaper reprobation One thing
everyone must say of Manitowoc county
officers, in their official acts they have not
acted as members Of party. Everyone
who knows Mr.. Faige must admit he Is q
thorough gentleman and would do moth
ing which would detract from the digni-
t. of his office in the interests OF any
party. The Times is hasty in its criti-
cism and consequently unjust.

DIR. FIsHBLATT arrives on his next
visit at Manitowoo, at the Williams
House, Tuesday, November 18th. We
call most particular attention to Prof.
fishblatt's advertisement in our columns
Of to-day's issue, and advise those affict-
ed to consult him, as he will remain but
one day, but will return every few
months. He is at the head Of the James.
vile Medical and Surgical Institute. and
has a worldwide reputation as skilled
physician in the treatment OF chronic
diseases. Do not forget the date of DIR.

afflicted can have an opportunity of con-
suiting the most celebrated specialist in
the United States.

The closeness of the vote in New York
prolonged the election excitement con-
siderably in this city. Until Saturday
the telegraph Office was besieged by
anxious persons and others who ''knew
not what to do" The associated press
dispatches were misleading in the extreme
and induced quite number to offer bets
on the result. Even while the dispatches
indicated plurality for Blaine. private
dispatches received here uHequivocally
announced Cleveand's election.
Rankin went to Milwaukee on Friday
and at once sent telegram to Piening
stating Cieveland's election was assured.
On the strength of this flags were run
up and the democratic heart beat glad.
Still the dread which series Of defeats
had made part of democratic faith pre-
vented any outburts of enthusiasm.
''t1ait for the official returns" was the
ADVICE quite generally given and acted
upon. Every one felt that the fraud Of
1876 would not bear repetition and that
there was very little danger of any clearly
marked fraud.
