Chronic Ailments.

A small portion of suffering which
humanity is heir to, arises from acute
diseases These yield at once to the or
binary practice of the schools, or they
soon battle all medical skill. But there
isa class of complaints with which men
and women are afflicted, that, without
producing any apparently alarming
symptoms, linger along for years per
haps. but unless arrested, invariably
sooner or later prove fatal. These are
the chronic diseases which DR. F. b.
Brewer makes. and has made for years,
> specially. And for the treatment OF
sheh complaints there is probably NJ
phy-ician Of the p esent day more sue
cessful than he He has made regular
visits for years. and such has been his
success in cases he has treated, that we
can safely recommend him TO those out
of health. IL will be seen that DR.
Brewer makes mis- next visit at the Vi
roaua hotel on Wednesday. March 14th.

Always Progressive and Instructive

During his short pastorate in Viroqua
Rev. j. A Stemen, of the Congregational
church, has inaugurated innovations
that have proven highly interesting and
instructive to the public. His latest is
a series of illustrated lectures on his
observations abroad. The first of the
series was presented in splendid form
last Friday night, on Picturesque Hol-
land and the Castled Rhine, from Am
sterdam to the Alps. The introduction
was brief review of the physical and
historical conditions of Holland, and a
reference to their social and domestic
customs, giving the Dutch due credit
for their leadership in scientific and
commercial affairs The lecturer pre-
sented views of Rotterdam, then going
to bort and back to Delft. the Hague,
the Washington of Holland, Leyden and
its famous Pilgrim history Harlem,
Amsterdam, IFS quaint old scenes and
its magnificent new buildings, Laan-
dam-the hut of Peter the Great, the
trips across North Holland and down to
tne interior about, Arnheim, the most
picturesque portion of Holland. Leav-
ing Holland we got peep at the great
cathedral at Antwerp and It's famous
paintings by Rubens; then going to Col
ogne with its magnificent Gothic ca
thedral, the finest in the world, the
Rhine with its fortihcations and castles
and legends; closing with a view of the
source of the Rhine The lecturer used
nearly seventy stereopticon lecture

colored, thus producing a fine effect

Pleasant Country Surprise.

Was that party at j. NJ. Aliens home
in the town of Jefferson, last Sunday.
About ten o'clock in the morning Mr..
and Mrs Allen discovered "~Tr sleigh
leads of people driving in tNeir yard,
which they admit quite startled them.
A survey of the crowd by the chairman
revealed the presence, as he said, of
nothing worse than relatives: conse-
quently an unconditional surrender of
the premises was easily securo 1. The
crowd was composed of son forty of
their kin 1red, and 1t was not long ere
every nook and corner of the home
resounded with the merry laughter OF
the children Inc older members of the
party were also having most enjoyable
time when suddenly the ladies executed
strategic movement into the hidden
contents of hHskets and boxes which
they seemed I'd know just where to find,
and in short tfme the board wa spread
and we wereS summoned to appear,
which we did aa found there before Ms
a spread that was conclusive proof of
the abilities of tn ladies Of the party
along the culinalS line It is needless
to say that we did ample Justice to the
occasion. All enjoyed themselves and
pronounced the aft iir a SUCCESS Mr..
and Mrs. Allen were each presented
with fine chair; also a token Of re-
membrance, by the little ones for their
son Earl. who is in South Dakota en-
gagged in farming, WHITTIER they go next
week to join him in the same occupation.
Mr. ar. Mrs. Allen are both Vernon
county born and bred and have formed
many ties of fri endship which they are
loath to break, but deem it best They
will take with them the best wishes Of
large circle of friends. NEIGHBoR.
