1RREGULARITY OF THE BOWELS.

THIS Is A COMBINATION OF
Saline and Vegetable materials, and
contains no Mercury or any drastic
vegetable cathartic, such as Mandrake
and Aloes, and is far superior in its
action, as it never debilitates or pro-
duces any unpleasant effects. 1t will
remove all diseases incidental to dis
orde ed state of the liver, and is there
fore recommended in all Liver Com
plai is. 1t will act thoroughly on the
live tin from two to four hours time
aud does not produce nausea or gripping
pains in the bowels.
DR.. Tobin having suffered for years
with liver disease, and after trying
every known remedy without success,
has succeeded In preparing this remedy
and by its use alone restoring his
health-now offers 1t to the public for
the cure of all liver troubles, and sells
1t under guarantee that after taking
three or four doses of the medicine and
satisfaction Is not given, you can have
your money refunded by returning the
bottle and wrapper.
HEPATOZONE has since its intro
duction, proved one of the most valua-
ble medicines discovered. Its merits
and success has been as gratifying to
the proprietors as its effects have
proved beneficial to those using it; al
most daily testimonials are received,
speaking in the highest terms of its
efficacy in its action on diseases for
which 1t is recommended. There is no
doubt of the value of Hepatozone. 1t
is eflicacious, mild and thorough in its
action, and there is not to-day a medi-

les. AS an Indication of its worth, we
will state that though every bottle is
guaranteed to give satisfaction, yet out
of over 10000 bottles sold, we have had
only two bottles returned to us. We
append few unsolicited testimonials
of its value:
From DR.. Callahan, formerly OF this
place:
LULING, Tex. Nov. 25, 1883.
Drs. j. j. q VIII. Tobin. AUSTIN:
Gentiemen-l desire TO give you my
unsolicited testimonial to the virtue of
your great medicine, Hepatozone. My
mother, who lives at Lafayette, Ala,
has been a great sufferer from liver
trouble for four years, physicians abso-
.lutelx- falling to give her relief. Hav-
ing heard of the cures effected by your
medicine, procured four bottles and
sent them for her to try, urging her to
give them a fair trial, and now she
writes me as follows: "Thanks to that
wonderful medicine you sent me, my
health is greatly improved; the pain in
my side, which the doctors here could
not relieve, has entirely disappeared,
and feel like / had new lease on
lite" l have heard from my mother
since the above was written, and she
regards the cure as complete. Many of
my friends at this place use Hepato-
zone with great satisfaction, and pro-
nounce it one of the very best of liver
medicines. Respectfully,
p. II. CALLAHAN,
Dentist, Luling, Texas.

sick, weak or languid. It Is. often the
case that we feel 9 little bilious, have
some headache perhaps, and are feeling

condition. relieved a case of dysen-
terry with it in a very short time. We

IRISH

From the amount OF noise made about
Irish Republicans this year n would be
led to suppose, if he did not know to
the contrary, that an Irish Republican
was something heretofore unheard Of,
a new and great discovery which should
be commemorated by the erection of a
painted plaster figure in the chronological
department Of the National Museum.
But there has been no time since the
Republican party was born when Irish
men have not been included in its men,
bership. When Mr.. Blaine cast his first
Republican vote some of his Irish fellow
citizens voted the same ticket; and
there were Irish Republicans in Illinois,
disciples Of Abraham Lincoln, long years
before chat memorable night on which
Mr.. Logan, between the hours of II NJ.
and l A. NJ, underwent a transformation

meats Of Ali. Burnett, the Lingards, OF
in ''Black Crook" or "Humpty Dumpty.'
A novice in American politics, reading
the Republican papers of these days,
would suppose not only that the Irish
Republicans of 1884 were the first Of
their kind but that, a sudden movement,
having begun, all the Irish.Americar
voters were rushing pell-mell over the
partition fence into the Republican in
closure and singing songs Of rejoicing 9,
their escape from bondage, as sang the
Israelites of old when they escaped from
Egypt.
This, too, is a myth, a creation of the
fancy or an optical delusion. There
were Grant Irish Republicans in 1865
and 1872, Hayes Irish Republicans in
1876, Garfield Irish Republicans in 1880,
just as there are Blaine Irish Republi
a in 1884; and in each Of those cam.
paign years there was an attempt te
magnify the few into a mighty host. just
as is now being done.
The simple truth is. as any man who
cares to investigate the subject can read.
