An lnciltn, in Pa na'S Career.

in miserable cabin in eorgia where
Ross had sought a re- -uge at q time
when the Cherokees We're ordered to

them, and they started for Mil,edgevi lie

'WelI, I certainly never e pected to

the words" "No, do you?' quolh the
militiaman. Il did. " "Oh, you did.
Well, then, go ahead and repeat them,

them. ! he man in command was much
impressed, and said the composer of
such song should if lie could help it,
never go to prison. Arrived at Mill

ASSrREs TuE puRLIC
USUALLY Polite

Nothing tends more to make the
situation agreeable than to be sur
rounded with polite attention. This
characteristic is most prominent with
the passenger train attendants of the
Wabash railroad, and has probably
contributed more than any other one
feature towards establishing the popu
larity Of the line. Then the accom-
modations are the very best, and the
through-car system simply perfection.
Leaving st. Louis in the morning, af-
ter the arrival of all trains from the
south, palace sleeper runs through
to New York, over the New York
Central railroad, without change, and
there IS an elegant parlor car and
free-chair Car for Chicago. In the
evening there is the only through
sleeper to Boston, another one to New
York and the two elegant sleepers and
the free-chair car for Chicago. Dining
and buffet cars furnish the finest
meals and lunches. The business
men and tourists will not forget these
facts when going north and east this

l certify with pleasure to the fol
lowing facts: My daughter, ten
years old, contracted the chills Au-
gust, 1877, on the Ohio river. No pre-
scription ever effected more than a
temporary suppression of the disease
no tones kept it off. But the use OF
two bottles of Hughes Tonic cured
her completely. She had no chill af-
ter taking the first dose. 1 also rec
commended the Tonic in the case of a
two-year-old child of a neighbor,
which had the chills for mora than a

the use of one bottle. / recommend
