what True wcrit viii Do.

The unprecedented sale of BoS-
cbee's German Syrup within a few
years, has astonished the world. II
is without doubt the safest and best
remedy ever discovered for the
speedy and effectual cure Of coughs,
colds and the severest lung troubles.
1t acts on an entirely different prin-
ciple from the usual prescriptions
given by Physicians, as it does not
dry up cough and leave the dis
ease still in the system, but on the
contrary removes the cause of the
trouble, heals the parts affected and
leaves them in a purely healthy con
dition a bottle kept in the house
fer use when these diseases make
their appearance, will save Doctors
bills aud long spell Of serious i'll
ness. A trial will convince you of
these facts 1t is positively sold by
all druggists and general dealers in
the land. Price 75 cents, large
bottles.

Cottonwood Substitute for Poplar.


Among the varieties of lumber the
supply OF which Il already becoming
limited may be mentioned wildwood or
tulip tree, known in the south as pop
lar. In some portions Of the south cot
tonwood is taking the place OF white
wood. In Chicago, the IiHbern9GB
says cottonwood lumber has made its
appearance, and large future contracts
will be made if favorable transporta-
ton rates can be secured This timber
finds its true home south, central Illi-
nois being its northern limit Of success
full growth. 1t is found in the river
bottoms, although IL attains consider
able size even well up IN Wisconsin and
Iowa on the Mississippi bottoms. In
the south il is a common tree of the low
lands, single trees yielding from 1000
to 5000 feet of lumber each. Tennessee
is rich in this timber and available to
our markets, once the value of the lum-
Der is fairly established. So far as can
be learned its principal use has been
for pump logs and other tubes for con-
veying water, Whitewood heretofore
has been used for this purpose. In
price as compared with whitewood
in the St Louis market cottonwood
lumber sells at Sl4 and whitewood at
Sl8 per thousand feet

THERE is some little excitement
among few local politicians con-
cerning the Moscow vote. 1t is
whispered by Democrats that the
returns were not made just so, and
the vote of the town should be
thrown out. This being Republi-
can town such move would result
to the advantage of some candidates
on the Democratic side. Still no
one intelligently disputes but what
the votes were honestly counted,
and that the inspectors acted accord
ing to their Interpretation of the
law there is no doubt. No good
citizen, we imagine, is willing to ac-
cept office under such an unfavorable,
underhanded move, which appear to
be agitated only by excitable, quib-
bling politicians.
