MIR. J. II. Grinstead, Sonora, Ky,
says: My children have sometimes
had boils and other signs of blood i'm
puritics, with loss of appetite, etc. at
which times | have found Switt's Spe-
ellie a most successful remedy, in no
instance failing to effect a speedy and
permanent cure.
"Switt's Specific is great blessing
to humanity,' says Mr.. p. f. Gordon.
of i25 Broad street, Nashville, Tenn.
for it cured me of rheumatism of a
very bad type, with which | have been
troubled for three or four years. ). :.
:. cured me after | had exhausted
everything else
Mr.. Russell Myrick. of the firm of
Myrick II Henderson, Fort Smith,
Ark, says he wishes to add his testi-
mony to the thousands which have al
ready been given as to Swift's Specific.
He SAYS he derived the most signal
benefit from it use to cure painful
boils A. d sores resulting from impure
blood.
When taken for few days, potash
mixtures impair the digestion. take
away the appetite, and dry up the gas
tric juices which should assist in di-
costing and assimilating the food.
Swift's Specific has just the opposite
effect; it improves digestion, brings
appetite, and builds up the general
health.

Judge Levi VI. Villas, of st. Paul,
died at the home Of his mother, Mrs.
Esther G. Villas, at Madison, on sun
day last. He was IS years old, and
until two years ago enjoyed the best
Of health. The cause of his death
was Bright's disease. He was one of
the ablest and most thorough lawyers
in the country. He removed to st.
Paul from Eau Claire only about two
years ago; but he was well known by
reputation in his new home, and his
practice became at once large and
lucrative. And last spring Gov. Mer-
riam, though strong republican, did
him distinguished honor in appoint

judeships created in Ramsey county
by the legislature of Minnesota.

The enterprising citizens Of Chicago
are making strong pun for the
Worlds Exposition of 1892, and it is
to be sincerely hoped that they will be
successful. Chicago is the greatest
city in the country, is centrally located,
and has unequaIed facilities for hold
ing grand exposition. The location
Of tho Worlds Exposition in America
ought to be in the great northwest:
so that foreigners in coming to it
would have an opportunity Of seeing
and becoming acquainted with the
greatness of the country. The inter
ests of the whole United States will be
best subserved by holding the Worlds
fair in Chicago.

The following extract from a letter
written by j. \. Starbuck, of York
town, Iowa. speaks for itself. Two
years ago, in harvest time, Young
man came into nv store and said he
had been binding wheat during the
forenoon and was so bad with diar-
rhoea and collie pains, that he would
have to lay off unless he could get re-
lief. | took bottle of your diarrhoea
remedy from the shelf; gave him a
dose; sold him bottle and told him
L would give him the money back if it
did no good. He came in next morn
ing and said the single dose did its
work SO well, that he not only kept up
his place binding during the after
noon, but had worked all night: and
had the price of the dose l gave him
been three dollars, it would have been
cheap. | will further say keep on
with your good work You cannot
Recommend your medicine too highly.
Chamberlain'S Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy is one Of the greatest
medicines of the age; it cannot be
beat. Wishing You much success and
prosperity which you richly deserve. l

a LOOP CABLE
Planned by the street Railway
Company to Connect All Its Ca
hIa Lines

Planned by the Street Railway
Company to Connect All Its Ca
BILE Lines.
The latest move by the street railway
company in regard to the building of
the cable lines is the decision to which
Mr.. Lowry has come to build a loop ca
bic down First avenue south to High
street, along High street in front of the
union station, and up Hennepin avenue
to Washington, and thence to Firstave-
nue. south and the point of starting. All
cars on all the cable lines will make the
circuit of the loop. and thus the public
will gain in the facilitation of transfers
of passengers from one line TO another,
and in the absence of the backing and
switching of cars, which is always an
annoyance in crowded streets. The
four cable lines which have been or
dered built Will artlculate with this
loop line. The Hennepin avenue cable
will start from the New Boston district,
come down and across the suspension
bridge. joining the loop there, and thence
making half the circuit of the loop,
and thence to its terminus on Lyndale
aYenU The Washington avenue cable
line, beginning at Twentieth avenue
north, will meet the loop at the corner
of Washington and Hennepin avenues,
will circle round half the loop, passing
the union station and going into Wash
ington avenue, where it will resume its
straight-aWay journey to Cedar avenue.
The motor cable line will, of course,
make the complete circuit of the loop,
and the latter will act for it Just as a
large turntable. The Bloomington av-
enue cable will join the First avenue
cable at Fourth street. and make the
same circuit as the other. The speed
of the loop will be eight miles an hour.
The power house for the loop will
be at Third avenue and Second street
north, and another cable power house
will be at Thirty-irst street and Nicol-
let n Work on the power houses
