Beaming with Smiles

Are the countenances of people who have
larisl, kidney, bilious. dyspeptic or nerv-
Gus troubles through the aid Of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Such countenances are
very numerous. So are letters from their
owners attesting the efficacy of the great
family medicine. Among the signals OF
distress thrown out by the stomach, bowels
and liver in q state of disorder, are sick
tf snn n OF Ape
and an uncertain state of the bowels. They
should be needed at once. II the Bitters
are resorted to, the woe begone look which
accompanies sickness will give way to
cheerful looks produced by renewed health
II you are drifting on the coast of disease,
throw an anchor to windward BY summon
ing the Bitters to your assistance. 1t will
keep you in safety.

Messrs. Johnston and French
state that delay in getting surveying
corps in the field il occasioned By
the slowness of getting subsidy and
other prsliminaries arranged.
The Land & Improvement Com.
pany states that it prefers to dispose

posed to retain the bank block, but
the railroad people represented that
if they purchased at all, it should
include everything.
