by nominating that gallant soldier

name heads this article, for the House
Of Delegates. Capt. c. has already
served in that body with distinction,
and made n record of which his
friends feel proud. His election we
regard as certain, and we congratu-
late his constituents, in advance, upon
their selection of a true man, and a
faithful and able representative.

But from the start they advertised
not in 4 stingy way, but with great
liberality. They patronizcd all the

they arc the best known and most
prosperous of any dry goods house
in that city. And they acknowledge
that advertising in the newspapers is

From Chicago to San Francisco.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway
Company has sent out little pamphlet of eight
pages which describes the trip from Chicago to
San Francisco over its short line fvia Omaha)
and connections, the Union Pacific Railway and
the Central Pacific Railroad The little book
mentions many of the numerous important
places along this route, and it indicates briefly
and in satisfactory manner what the accommo-
dations and attractions for the traveller are. A
running colored birds-eye view map at the
tops of the pages shows the comparative alti-
tude of the many cities and points of interest
The distance from Chicago to San Francisco by
this route is 1855 miles, and the time consumed
in making the trip four and one half days In
going from Chicago about 600 feet above the
sea level, one goes right up over the Rocky and
Sierra Nevada Mountains at hight of 5000
feet, and down to San Francisco, less than l 900
feet. BY this route through Northern Illinois
and Central Iowa, the traveller passes Des
Moines, Omaha, Cheyenne, Denver, Great Salt
Lake, Carson City and Sacramento. Every
thing in the way of checking baggage, provid-
ing berths, eating, and other accommodations,
is looked after with the most scrupulous care,
the aim being first and. always to secure the
comfort of the passengers Members of the
GAR. going from all parts of the East to San
Francisco next Summer would do well to con-
slider the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul route,
concerning which they may obtain minute in

A New Formula for Consumption.
From the Baltic. (Md.) Americana

We are in receipt of a number of communi-
cations on a topic which just now seems to be
receiving the attention of great many persons
1t is the question of the treatment of consump-
ton, and all kinds of diseases, without drugs.
Many years ago, in France, it was decided by
the leading physicians that nothing was equal
to beef rs an article of diet in consumption and
all ailments which tend to its development.
This is now generally admitted fact Much
difficulty, however, has been experienced in
the PRONUNCIATION Of this truth, from the fact
that many stomachs cannot digest it. The in
digestibe quality of all cod-liver oil having
led to its being abandoned in medical treat
ment, it was found that blood taken from an
animal just killed, if swallowed, produced mar
velOus beneficial effects. This found favor with
few, however, but the idea has been put into
practical operation, and there are in all parts
of the world to-day hospitals devoted to the
cure of consumption and kindred diseases
where beef combined with alcohol, in some
form, is the chief article of food. Efforts have
been made by those interested to keep this
simple remedy from the masses, partly from
selfish motives, but quite as much from the fact
that the wonderful benefits to be received
would be doubted by many if they knew in
advance what constituted the cure Another
reason was, that its efficacy depends on the
presence of spirits free from authorizations and
fusel oil. In the past such an article has been
difficult to procure. Now, however, it can be
obtained, aud the communications we have
referred to are from parties who are using
formula of this kind received from the Duffy
Malt Whisky Co., of Baltimore, Md. The
formula, which was prepared specially for
them by an eminent German scientist, consists
principally of raw beefsteak and ingredients
which any housekeeper can get and mix, COM
bined with their pure malt whisky, which
will, if regularly used, add on an average 10
pounds in month to the weight On the
receipt of two-ccnt stamp, the formula will
be sent to all parties using their whisky under
the seal of the company. From the abundance
of testimony there can be no question as to its
value. This method of treatment is in accord
ance with the views of the two recognized lead
ing medical authorities of this country, Pro-
fessor Austin Flint and Professor III. c. Wood.
The company has received so many inquiries
concerning this formula that they have found
it necessary to add a medical department to
their other business facilities.

Queer Identification.
TerdS Sijtinqs.1

Col. Sumpter Mcbride, of Austin, has been
spending several weeks in New York. few
days ago, being in need of some money, he ap-
piled to Broadway bank to cash draft
what is your name?" asked the paying
teller.
"Col. Sumpter Mcbride sir, of Austin, Travis
Co., Tex"
You will have to be identified, Colonel"
This was something the Colonel had not
taken into consideration. He knew of nobody
who could identify him, and was about to leave
the bank when a happy thought occurred to
him. He reached into his breast pocket and
brought out photograph of himself, and hold
ing it under the nose of the bank official said:
"There sir; guess that settles it."
"Of course, that's your photograph, but how
does that identify you?"
"Well, sir, will you please tell me how could
have my photograph taken if wasn't MYSELF"
