The Florida Limited, which is the syn
Onym of all that is elegant in modern rail
way trains, and which during its former

Trout made affidavit to its truthfulness
before Robert E. Hull, Jr., Notary Publc.
The last decade of the nineteenth CEN
tory has been marked by some Of the
most important discoveries in the history
Of the world. None have done more to
benefit mankind than DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. Some of the cures
effected by this wonderful remedy almost
equal the miracles Of old. Diseases long
supposed incurable have succumbed to
their potency. The paralyzed have
walked; the weak and aiIing have
stepped from their beds well and strong.
The evidence is irrefutab1e. The fact
stands supreme that Dr.. Williams Pink
Pills are the greatest blessing ever bestowed
on suffering humanity.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold BY
druggists throughout the land.

Saved her when eminent physicians

A Noted Physician will Prove This to
Sufferers in Cresco,
The progress of modern medical
science has led to the discovery of
successful methods of treatment for
most of those .maladies once regal ded
as incurable. Asthma has always
been regarded as belonging to this
obstinate class, battling the skill of
the greatest physicians. Thousands
of sufferers know by their own expert
ence that little if any relief has been
afforded them by the methods hereto
mann the noted physician has, after
kindred diseases, discovered remedy
which not only gives instant relief in
the severest cases of Asthma, Hay
Fever and Bronchitis, but has actually
cured thousands whose cases had
been pronounced incurable. So CON-
plete IS his confidence in his remedy,
that to overcome the skeptlcism of
the public growing out of the failure
of other remedies, DIR. Schiffmann
requests this paper to announce that
for the next three days he offers
liberal sample box of "Schiffman's
Asthma Cure" free of charge to all
persons applying at DIR. William
Connolly's Drug Store. He believes
that an actual test will be the most
convincing and in fact the only way
to overcome the natural prejudice Of
thousands of Asthmatics who have
heretofore sought relief in vain. Per-
sons living out of town will receive q
package free. postpaid, by writing
direct to DR.. r. Schiffmann, 315 Rosa

oREsco IOWA TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 90 1898

While over in Crane Creek vale,
last week our thoughts naturally raj
over the list of early friends Of th,
PLAIN DEALER whom we found
there forty years ago. These were
John Dunagan. Robert Locke, Ber.
nard Clancy, James Forester, Alex
Hutton, James Stevenson, Mr.
Painton, Thos. j. Gibbons, G. w
Fields, Col. 7. w. Sanders, 9. A
salmon, Judge Seeley, I. H. st. John
Jared Sigler, not one of whom is now
living, though the widows of several
OF them are yet living. These changes
show how evanescent is life, and how
living here for over forty years, we
are among strangers. 1t also shows
how mistaken men are who think
because they were known to the
generation here forty years ago that
they are already well known to the
present generation. In conversation
with one of the prominent new
comers who had been out there some
two years, we mentioned the name of
one of our early residents and bust
ness men residing here, his name and
business being unknown to this man
who had been two years resident
in near the center of the county.
A trip through Alton, where for
thirty years we have labored in the
political field with the McGranes, the
Roches, Rileys, Fitzgerald, Madden
and others, showed US with emphasis
how completely we are becoming a
stranger, and how few Of the present
generation we can call by name, al
though most of the men, sons and
grandsons of our early acquaintances
there, would call us by name when
meeting US on the highway or at
their homes. The Kelleys, Kildees,
Martins, Buckleys, Connors, and
most of the McGranes of that day are
numbered with the dead. A pleasant
reception and welcome came to us
from the widow and sons of an old
and esteemed friend, John Dormady,
now numbered with the dead. One
of the sons we met in the morning
near Elma on the way to the post Of
fee and al dinner he was at home
and had the PLAIN DEALER bearing
date the same day, though living
nearly thirty miles from Crcsco. Our
trip was pleasant and profitable and
we enrolled twelve of the sons of
former friends and patrons as new re-
cruits for the PLAIN DEALER.

It Was Wonderful.

IL
A good story is being circulated among
the medical men of Cleveland, a story
which was started by the victim himself.
He is a physician of considerable repute
and some time ago was called to attend
a gentleman of advanced years. who was
suffering from a slight complication OF
disorders. The doctor went to work with
the road to recovery. In fact, two weeks
had him cured.
As he left the house after announcing
that further visits would be unnecessary.
the daughter of the restored man accom-
panied him to the door.
Doctor she said, in somewhat trem-
ulous tones, Il want to tell you -
Tho doctor. who supposed she was
anxious to express her gratitude for his
skilled attention, waved her thanks aside.
Don't mention it. madam. he ahaoly
said I'VE always try to do our duty
But, Doctor she persisted, 1T is some
thing that viii interest you. l feel that =
Say no more, madam" cried the doc
tor much moved by the WOman's agt-
tatiOn.
1T is something 1 must tell you, doc
tor she continued. Please listen"
The doctor halted, with his hand on
the door knob.
Yesterday" said the woman, 81 was
down town and met Mrs. Pugsley, the
Christian Scientist, and she told me she
had been giving father absent treat
menta' for two weeks. Isn't it just too
wonderful"
Good morning, said the doctor, dryIy,
