Burlington road has become one OF the
important factors in the railroad affairs
OF the northwest. and the moment an
advance is made the Burlington must
take its place in the line. The Burling-
ton has no greater rival in this than the
Chicago and Northwestern road. Her
first move will undoubtedly be to tap the
latter's territory and in that case Sioux
Falls must be the first point made for.

The Pure and the Impure.

The merry little mountain brook, as IT
lightly dances over the rocks and spark
los in the sunshine on its way down to
the river, is pure and clean. 1t is active
therefore it is healthy. It is vigorous,
therefore It resists impurity. But the
sluggish pool, where the current is not
strong enough to keep the water in mo.
ton, Is stagnant and foul. Dirt am
rubbish are thrown into it, and stay
there. Impurities and vile odors make
it a breeder Of disease and an object to te
avoided. When the blood is strong anG
rich and red, and vigorously courses It's
accustomed rounds through arteries and
veins, the system is hearty and healthy.
When the blood is thin and poor and
weak, impurities and deflements creep
into it, aud it has no strength to cast
them out, Then the system runs down.
The only known reliable cure for impure
blood and a weak and debilitated system
is Hops and Malt Bitters~- n ature's rem,
edy. Fhe great Blood Purifier and Kid
ncy and Liver Remedy, compounded
from the we'll known curatives, Hops.
Malt, BGeha, Mandrake, Dandel1on,
Sarsaparilla, Cascara Sagrada, etc. Hops
and Malt Bitters ID the greatest Health
and Life Restorer agent on earth. It Ia
especially recommended for all diseases Of
women, such AS mental depression, weak
ness, breaking down, ]assitude of the
system, headache, etc. A trial will surely
convince any one ofits merits Call for
