no CURE q. NOT TO CUkE.-Tbat IL
L the question, and the only question which
aHects IN the silgntest degree me interests OF
disordered bowels, loss of appetite, nervous
headache, constipation. and such other dis
eases as have their oragin in improper diges-
ton. We admit that sufferers had better bear
their ills than resort to remedies that they
know not; out when they have the assurance
of their friends aud neighbors that BAKERS
BITTERS are an unfailing remedy for these
complaints; that they purify the blood
strengthen the nervous system, quicken the
liver. enliven the mind, and expel all improper
secretiOns. it is a little strange that all who
suffer do not seek relief by The use OF them.
These BITTERS have now borne the test OF
time, and from their curative powers have be-
come an established family medicine in this
section of the country. Their properties are
without fear of injury, and will prove an un-
falling tonic in all cases OF loss of appetite.

DISAPPEARANCE OF CITY TREASURER JOHN

Carroll, the efficient and popular City Treasur-

days, as he told some of his friends, but as he
has not yet returned. and as it is unknown
where he is, his friends here feel great anxiety
about him. There is no suspicion that there is
anything wrong about his accounts as Treasur-
er. He has large amount to his credit in
Bank as Treasurer. and also considerable
sum to his individual credit, and he owns
valuable property in the city. What adds in
creased interest and anxiety to his strange dis
appearance is the fact that he was soon to be
married to handsome lady of this city. and

the ceremony.
Several friends have for some days been in
search of him, but up to this time have been
unable to learn his whereabouts, or his fate
