Saved by a Dream.

A few years ago n man named
Bronson, who was an agent for big
seed house, was travelling through
Tennessee making collections for his
house. He had to visit many towns
off the railroads, and in such cases he
secured q horse and buggy or rode
horseback. One night after he had
finished his business in Chattanooga
he made ready for horseback ride oil
fifteen or twenty miles the next day.
Upon retiring to his room for the
night he sat down to smoke n cigar.
lie was neither overtired nor sleepy,
hut after smoking few minutes he
had what he termed n vision. lie
was riding over the country on horse
back, when at the junction OF the
roads he was joined by stranger.
lie saw this man as plainly rs one
man can see another in lrOaa day
!iaht, noting the color OF his l.air and
eyes, and taking particular no.ico o.
the fact that the horse, which was
gray in color, had ''y" branded Oh
lis left shoulder.
The two rode along together for a
mile or more, and then came 10 q
spot where u tree had blown down
and fallen across the narrow high
way. They turned into the woods
to pass the spot, he III advance, when
he saw the stranger pull pistol and
fire ut his back. He felt the bullet
tear into him. reeled and fell from
his horse, and was conscious when
the assassin robbed him and thrtw
his body further into the woods. lie
seemed to sec all this. ard yet at the
same time knew that lie was dead.
His corpse was rolled into a hollow
and covered with brush, and then the
murderer went away and lett hun
alone. In making an effort to throw
off the brush the dead man came to
life; that is, the agent threw of the
spell and awoke himself. His cigar
had gone out, and, as near as he
could calculate, he had been uncon-
scious, as you might call it, for about
fifteen minutes. He was deeply agi.
tated, and it was some time before he
could convince himself that he had
not suffered any injury. BY and by

A Lucid Exclamation.

There were five people in New York

box. The driver counted the passcn-
gers, and counted the nickcls several
times.
Have any of You passengers put
two nickels into the box?' he asked
The passengers denied having done
anything of the kind.

SOLID AND SAFE.
The Old Hawkeye at the Head. OF Iowa
Insurance Companies.

No man should insure his property in any
company until be has first satisfied himself Of
It's daancial sound,iess and Of its promptaess IN
tho payment Of its losses. The most reliable
basis for forming judgment As to the ability
OF . company is its sworn statement as made
to the auditor OF state. According to its off,
cial report at the beginning OF the present year
the net surplusof the Hawkeye was $780,
1852 being $50, 260.22 In excess Of the surplus
of all other Iowa companies combined. The
company was organized over twenty years ago,
and has always maintained its position as the
leading and strongest company IN The state. Its
popularity with the insuring public is attested
by the fact that its premium receipts are lar
ger than those Of any other Iowa company,
while in the amount OF its assets and surplus
1t leads all the others. Its business is chiefly
on farm property, and tho better class Of mer-
camille risks, and so taken that 1t cannot lose
by any one fire more than 81, 500. Policy hol-
ders in the Hawkeye, 1t will be seen, have alb
solute indemnity against loss. The manage
ment OF the company is, and always has been,
In the hands OF prudent and fair-dealing men,
who have made it worthy Of the confidence
which the insuring public of Iowa repose in 1t.
L. j. Ingersoll, the president, has been at the
head Of the company from the beginning, and
Adam Howell, the secretary, has been for
many years identified with 1t. Both are thor
oughly experienced in the business Of insu-
rance, and are careful and competent mana
gers and fnanciers. The Hawkeye is strictly
home company, its business being confined
to Iowa. The premiums received from its
patrons are used only In payment of losses in
this state.

Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.

Mr.. David Claypool formerly Sergeant at
Arms of the New Jersey Senate, and now Notary
Public at Cedarville, Cumberland Co. N. j.,
makes the following startling statement: ''My
father, mother, and three sisters all died with
consumption, and my lungs were so weak
raised blood. Nobody thought l could live.
My work (shipsmithing) was very straining on
me with my weak constitution, and was rap.
idly going to the grave. While in this condi-
ton commenced using Mishler's Herb Btters,
and It saved my life. Because it was so diff
cult to get 1t in this little place, and had i'm.
pro1ed so much, stopped taking it for a
time, and the result is l have commenced
going rapidly down hill again. Somehow,
Mishler's Herb Bltters gives appetite and
strengthens and builds up as nothing else does
and l must have dozen bottles at once. Use
this communication as you please, and IL any
one wants to be convinced Of its truth, let
them write me and will make affidavit to 1t,
for owe my life to Mishler's Herb Bitters"
The secret of the almost invariable relief and
cure Of consumption, dysentary, darrhga
dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and liver
complaints, when Mishler's Herb Bitters is
is used, Is that it contains simple, harmless and
yet powerful ingredients, that act on the blood,
kidneys, and liver, and through them strength
ems and invigorates the whole system. Purely
vegetable in its composition; prepared by
regular physician; a standard medicinal prep
sration; endorsed BY physicians and druggists.
These are four strong points in favor of Mlsh-
ler's Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herb Bitters is
sold by all druggists. Price $l.00 per larg.
bottle. 6 for $500.
Ask your druggist for MIsHLER's HERB BIT
TIERS. II he does not keep it, do not take any
thing else, but send apostal card TO MIsHLER
