been and is now as good asst ever was.
Can eat in moderation now food that
two years ago dared not touch. Atthe
same time was afflicted with disease,
I believe, of the skin; for the last ff-
teen years it has been plague to me.
1t invariably made its appearance in
February and lasted until April. When
got warm in bed it would commence
itching. There was no eruption until I
was compelled to scratch, then a little
pimp1e, not as large as a pins head,
would appear, and then my misery
commenced. have laid many cold
winters night without any covering un-
til I could stand the cold no longer,
and then would pull the cover over me.
and get snatches of sleep. 1 have not
felt it since taking your valuable mo
landine, which was taken for dyspep-

of that plague. write this to show you
I have been cured by your valuable

plant, beg leave to call their atten-
ton to your vegetable preparation,
Nolandine." regard it as "chola-
gogue," combining also tonic and reno
waiting properties, and in this respect
differing from any medicine I have
ever taken
The effects Of your "Nolandine" in
my case, has been on the liver and Sc
cretions identical with calomel; at the
same time, entirely free from nauseating
and facilitating consequences follow
ing the use of that mineral.
I very cheerfully recommend your
"Nolandine" for the diseases enume-
rated on your circulars, and am convinc-
cd from personal benefit derived from
its use, that it must become stand
ard family medicine.
1 am not alone in the very high esti-
mate place on "Nolandine," and trust
it will be universally known and be,als
it should be, the means of taking the
place of mineral preparations for that

Having suffered for several years with
liver complaint, indigestion and an OBJ

unsuccessfu1ly using other remedies, I
was advised by several physicians to try
your celebrated preparation, NOLAN

Since thoroughly testingit, lean con-
fidently recommend it as the best alte-
rative blood purifier and liver invigora-
tor have ever used; and it can also be
taken with much efficacy by delicate
females. I consider it valuable family
medicine, possessing the advantages of

and with pleasure offer my unsolicited
testimony in favor of Nolandine.

Constructive piarrnee.

I feel it my duty to make the fact
known, for the benefit of those who
may be suffering as I have done. The
late DR.. Charles Bell Gibson, and other
physicians in the city, pronounced my
disease consumptive diarrhea. and after
three Ia years of treatment, during
which time derived no benefit what
ever, they said my complaint was in
durable. I was reduced to a mere
shad ow by loss of appetite, cough diar-
rhra, night sweats and sleeplessness.
I had not strength to go up and down
stairs without assistance.

MINERAL WELLS, Tex, Aug. 1.-THE ''sum-
mer normal school, for this senatorial district,
which has been in sessions at this place for the
past month, closed yesterday, evening. The
school is pronounced by all a brilliant success.
Professors Brown. Barnett and GLADDEN. deserve
much credit for the able manner in which the
school has been conducted. The last two were
strangers in our midst, and carry home with
them the best wishes of our people. Professor
Barnett is formerly of Weatherford, but has
recently been elected to a leading position in
the public schools at Houston. Professor Glad
den is principal of the high school OF Mexia.
The people are so much pleased with the work
of Professor Brown and his assistants that they
have determined to organize permanent sum
mer institute, such as Galveston has, and make
it q irst-class school.
Our accommodations are first class both in the
matter of school building and accommodations
We have been visited with fine rains this morn
ing and everything is lovely. The boil
in this section and cannot hurt
US severely in future. A prominent farmer was
heard TO say yesterday that if the boil worm
ruined the crop of this section ''they would have
to digest a good deal of cotton" The crops here
simply immense.
prominent NJ. D. of this place has goat
tied to tree back of his office this morning, and
rumor has that he is going to test the virtue of
the Brown Sequard discovery later in the day.
The Mineral Wells national bank perma-
nently oaganized yesterday and viii soon be
ready for business. The officers of this bank are
staunch business men, and will do good bust
ness.
There are no new developments in railroad
circles. Our people are very hopeful that the
road to Weatherford will be completed in time
for the present crop to be marketed here.
