j. NJ. MARTIN, Esq, Lenapah, |. T.
DEAR SIR am just in receipt OF
yours ofihe llth informing the medi-
zeal examining board for the Northern
bbdicial Circuit of the pretensions of
'one physician named rolan, located in
th Aeinity OF Lenapah. You tell me,
Il. gy,hat he has Informed you that he
is member of The examining board
and second that he tells j. NJ. TITLE,
deputy sheriff, that he passed the ex-
animation of the board 80 h" In
justice to the board and for the infor.
nation OF epublic, yourself included,
it is thought well to make this declara-
ton: In regard TO the first claim IL
may be said hat il stamps him as a
sort of unique specimen OF cheek and
gall. Don't everybody know who COM
pose the board and that AN adventure
could not have been appolnledg As
TO his second clam, the facts are that
he left Lenapah aud came to Ninita
osicnsibly to Ice examined, but VIXEN
he learned from an outside party, for
he saw no member of the board. that
the board would sit at o'clock p. m.
and examine him, he boarded the 1910
train and was seen no more. II the
opinion OF the board is worth anything
to the public, it is hereby given that
the said rolan does not arise to the
dignity of iirst.class maud, and We
disclaim any responsibility for the ac-
tiols Of him and the several others ol
the kind who are practicing medicine
in violation Of law aud claiming to
hold The certificate Of this board
Rather II is the duty Of the nations
solicitor TO enforce the law by calling
upon every ono FOR his certificate. Sc
far only Ora. Oliver Bagby, of vinl,a
Geo. woodrinH, OF Barilcsyille, and
Geo. Ledlord, OF Alton, have borne q
satisfactory examination by this board
and hold It's certificate.

New Dry Goods
SDringStOCkNOV
Opened.

LADIES'
We take pleasure in stating TO
youthat our spring Of 1891 stock of
Dry Goods isnow upon our shelves
and counters.
1t will be a greater pleasure to
have you call and examine them.
A great deal was said last fall
about VIM. Mckinley and his fam
Gus bill. One would have sup
posed that said bill was long
enough to sap the very life out Of
the people, especially the pur-
chasing consumer. fyou will call
at our store we will endeavor to
disabuse your mind on this ques-
ton.
We can sell better values in Dry
Goods this season for less money
than they cost us last year. We
are not going into a tariff or free
trade argument. The goods may
have been smuggled. If they
were we don't know it; they came
to US in the regular way.
We think we have the finest dis
play of Dry Goods ever brought
to this Nation and we ask an in
spection.
Respectfully Yours,
