IyEEEREN. HARRISON
BY THE AUTHOR OF BEN HuR.

Gen. Lew Wallace we hear has reniov-
ed to Indianapolis, and is busily engaged
writing Biography of his old friend.
Gen. Ben. Harrison.
Rarely has 50 happy combination
been known as that resulting in the issue
of this work. Gen. Lew Wallace, known
the world over as the author of Ben
Hur, is one of Gen Harrison's lifelong
and trusted friends, and is also distin-
guished soldier, trained statesman, and
diplomat of high national reputation.
His name as author gives at once the
assusance of biography of extraordin-
airy merit.
His long and intimate acquaintance
with his distinguished subject will en-
able him TO prepare rapidly an authentic
and deeply interesting biography.
| His large experience in national and
international affairs fits him TO treat I'M
derstandingly and ably of General Har-
rison's superb record as statesman, and
clearly to unfold the principles held by
him respecting the science OF good gov
eminent, and the weighty issues at stake
| in the present great contest.
/ Gen. Wallace ut first declined this task
but upon the urgent solicitation of many
eminent men of the party, and Gen. Har-
rison's assurance that every thing need
full should be placed at his disposal, so
as to make it the strictly authentic, and
only authorized Biography, he yielded
to the call, and has agreed to complete
the work for publication by Hubbard
Brothers, of Philadelphia, early in
| August.

Two Ways. Choose which!

. There are two usual ways of do ing what ma
ture sometimes does ineompletely, namely.
to relieve the bowels. One Is to swallow a
drastic purgatlve which evacuates profusely,
abruptly and with pain, the other is to take
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. the effect of
which is not violent. but sufficiently thorough
and which does not grippe the intestines. If
the first is selected. the person employing 1t
need not expect permanent benefit and he
cannot hope to escape the facilitating reac-
tion which leaves the organs az bad or worse
off than before. II on the other hand, he re-
sorts to the Bitters. he can rely upon the res
tOration of a regular habit of body, consequent
upon a renewal of a healthful tone in the in
testinal canal. Besides beautifully relaxing
the bowels. the Bitters arouses a dormant liv-
err, imparts beneficial impetus to the action
of the kidneys, and counteracts the early
twinges of rheumatism. tendency to gout
and malaria in all Its forms.
