icaI Treatment.
A VERIFIED CLAIM.

, Mankind's greatest enemy is disease. Be-
tween the two there is constant warfare be-

ment catarrh, whether acute or chrome. is alb
solutely cured. In every case the results have
been eminently successful. This week the fol-
lowing statement is added:

The railroad workmen, however, had nearly reached the property of Austin Jennings, last week, and it is probable that some decision regarding the price of this property will soon be reached. MT Jennings says that it will be necessary to move his buildings, if the road takes as much land as it has asked.
 Postmaster and Station Agent NJ. M. Crossman has received notice from the Consolidated road that, when the new stations are occupied, the post office will not be allowed to be kept in the build ing, but that he may retain his commits sion as long as the present station is oc- cupied.
 Frank Whitehead has bought horse in Norwalk and is to sell one of his.
