SEEING IS BELIEVING. Wonderful Restoration of a Paralyzed
 Arm by Dr. MerroW.

There is certainly something wonder ful about the power for healing the sick possessed by DR. MERROw, of No. l15 Fairfield avenue. Wonderful from the fact that in but very few cases, simply by an application of magnetic power, the ''sick are made whole.' Happening in the doctors office one day this week. the writer there had an opportunity of wit messing examples of this wonderful power. Mrs Hester Burton, living on Campbell street, who told us that she had not used her arm for two years, ap- piled to DR. MERRow for relief, and in less than 15 minutes she was enabled to not only move her arm readily, but easily lifted articles, which she had been unable to do hefore. A Mrs Brown said she had been troubled with dyspepsia and indigestion. Everything she ate gave her distress. She had applied to a number of physicians, who endeavored to relieve her, but none seemed to do her any good. About a week ago she appli- ed to DR. MERROw, who, to her astonish- ment, told her that she was troubled with tape worms. This was startling information. But she was assured by the doctor that such was the fact, and was astonished when DR. MERRow, in a very few minutes, removed from her q tape worm 97 feet 8 inches long; to-day the lady is enjoying good health. This worm may be seen at the doctors office at any time. And thus it is, without any excitement, without any noise, DR. MERRow is healing the sick and making hundreds happy. The doctors charges are very reasonable, his consultations being free, enabling the poor>to obtain relief as we'll as the rich. So large has the doctors practice become that he has been obliged to secure Dr Davis, of the Eye and Ear hospital, New York, to as sist him at Bridgeport.

. In no class of trade and with no house in the line of extensive business is the promise of an increased activity in trade more strik- ingly Illustrated than with that of Henry N. Ayres' boot and shoe house. This is the best and most favorable of its kind in Bridgepors- This house makes it a strict rule to sell goods at close living profit, receiving abundant evidence of the just appreciation of its efforts and the confidence of the public by the large amount of trade it is thus enabled to control throughout this section. He carries one of the. heaviest stocks, which is chosen with great care from the best makers in the com- try. The different stocks here displayed con sist of ladies', gents and ehildren's boots and shoes, made up in all the latest and most fash ionable styles and are displayed in endless variety, all of which plainly testify to the good taste of MT Ayres in the selection of the stock and the extent of his business connect ions. In looking through the store one is particularly struck with the manner in which this place is conducted and attention bestow
 ed upon all classes of customers. In addition to all these attractions he is constantly giving his customers something for nothing; the lat est is a fine Keller piano and two Empress sewing machines. This is nothing new tor the contemplating boot and shoe house of H. \. Ayres. This is the fourth series of presents he has offered within the past two years and ii he did not believe that the public appreci- ated his liberality he would not be likely to continue this method of dividing his profits with them. The total value of the presents offered this time is $40, any one of which you may possibly be the lucky one to get by pur- chasing sI worth and receiving ticket

which prevailed, spread rapidly until at
the time of writing the dispatch half
the town was laid waste and the fire
was entirely beyond control. Every
business house and public building in
the city, with the exception of Strater's
hotel and the postotfice is destroyed.
The telegraph office was threatened
with destruction and no one could con-
lecture the extent of the coni!agratiAn.

Of the town. and this result was feared,
the entire city would be obliterated.
The fire department was powerless to
cope with the flames.
