ToLLEsBoRo, KY.-Dr. S. B.
Hartman u Co: / keep the largest
stock of medicines OF any store in
Lewis county, with the exception OF
drug store at Vanceburg, our
county seat, and am selling a great
deal OF your Peruna and Manalin.
1t is giving the best satisfaction of
any medicine that / ever handled.
In one case, our constable for this
district, has been very sick and low
spirited for long time. For several
years he has tried all the doctors
here, and we have some good ones,
but they did him no good. After
much persuasion sold him two bot
ties Of Peruna and Manalin. He
took half of the medicine. l could
see a great change in him, and now
he is as sound man apparently as
there is in this vicinity, and he says
he is entirely well. He is u number
one man, and is highly respected.
He is satisfied that your medicine
saved his life, after all the doctors
and all the medicines had failed.

The Wool Trade.
N. Y. Tribune.

A reaction is apparent from the
unprecedented movement of wool
last year, by which the markets
were oyerstocked and manufacturers
were induced to push the production
beyond the demand for consumption.
In the Boston Market, though the
receipts last week were $685. bales
domestic and 300 foreign, this was
exceeded during the corresponding
week last year, when the receipts
1850 domestic and 1852 foreign. AT
that time, it will be remembered, the
new tariff had not taken effect. Thus
far in 1884 the receipts at Boston
have been 81 1921 bales domestic and
81 ,0S7 foreign, against 127 APO do
nestle and 2S,207 foreign to the same
date in 1883, and under the old rates
of duty. The sales since January
LIST have been Al $50 400 pounds,
against 10000, 500 to the same date
last year. Some shrinkage in the
takings for consumption may be re-
garded with satisfaction, as the man
ufacturers undoubtedly turned out
more goods last year than could be
sold, but the fact that the demand
for consumption is still so we'll main
tanned seems to indicate that the ex-
cess Of production, whatever it may
have been last year, was not so large
as many have supposed. 1t is now
stated, however, that several mills
are to close on July 1st on account
of the dizziness of trade.

freshing sleep. Thedoctors know where
to advertise their patent nostrums, and
very rarely are they found in this part
OF the country, for they know it won't
pay to come here. They would find no
market for their wares among the people
OF the Northwest, where the clear. pure.
dry atmosphere possesses more efficacy
than all the patent medicines ever in
vented. Malaria does not and cannot
exist, for the conditions are wanting.
There are no stagnant pools to create
poisonous vapors, and dampness of the

Celestial Jim-Jams.

What a glorious sunset that was last
night! AS the last rays of the setting
sun fingered on the domes and spires of
the city and tinged with a ruddy flush
the snow covered waters of the silent
river the whole western sky was illum-
mated with waves of rose and amber
colored light that pulsed up into the
heavens like the heart-throbs of celes-
tial hosts. 1t was a picture all i'm light
and shade. The dying day IN his ship
OF state sailed into the peaceful harbor
of the sundown country, escorted by an
argosy OF cloudships more beautiful than
human eye ever saw; grander than
earthly pen e'er dared describe. It was
as if Peri from the far-off gardens of
Paradise had flung over earth the ban
ners of the city where there is no night,
and gathering the glitteriny gems from
the Eternal throne, had thrown them
with Il lavish hand over the battlements
Of Heaven to the world below. Down
the western horizon, through the golden
gates OF the Occident, tinging the sable
wings of night with the halo of glory,
and filling the universe with splender
Aot of earth, ebbed and flowed the en-
trancing waves of color, while the heav-
ems echoed back to the speechless world
in words more grand than human lips
dare breathe, the Incompatible music of
the spheres. Slowly the gorgeous pa
geantry in the west, marching down
through the fields of amethyst, found
resting places in the celestial country.
One by one the stars came out to fill
their places in the coronet of night, and
far away in the east, breaking through
the gathering shadows, came the calm
and beautiful queen of the silent hours,
flooding her pathway with mellow light,
and filling the fiAmament with the
grandeur or her power she majestically
rascended the addicted throne of the day
and began her reign amid scene of
beauty which will not he equalled until
