Tor Thirty Tears. For thirty years "Wirter Balsam of Wild Cherry has been kept for sale by druggists generally, and in all that time there has not been a sin

gle complaint made; but on the contrary the druggists 2nd the people acknowledge it to be the best remedy for the cure of Coughs, Colds, Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, and all lung diseases. ' - A Queer Nation. Many peaplv think it cheaper to buy 25 cent sizes of proprietary medicine. But they make a mistake. For instance, Dr. W istar's Balsam of Wild Cherry contains about eight times the Quantity of ordinary cough baleanis. Besides it takes a less quantity of Wistar's Balsam to eure a cold A single dose is often sufficient;. T For deep seated colds and Consumption it has proven itself to be the best and quickest cure ever discovered. ' Noto is the Time. Don't wait till you are nearly dead'-and bed-ridden.

YosSj the jeweler; Physicians very often prescribe, at this time of year, medicines th at nave tfr their basis pure brandy or whisky. If" the patient gets impure spirits thoso made poisonous by dishonest city rectifiers the effect is very harmful. A reputation ' for securing and selling only pure and unadulterated liquors, is wor'Ji something to a man. Such a reputation August Kreuger has earned by many vears of experience, and persons who re

quire whisky or brandy for medicinal pur

poses, may rest assured that wnen tucy buy it of Kreuger, they get it as it comes from the distillery, without any doctoring. The best of anything is none too good for the people, and while they ore buying they should get the best it is cheapest. Wtf; J. ALLEN - See those shot gnns and revolvers, just received ' Very cheap.

Owing to illness, Miss Florenoe Hunter was prevented from going on her visit to Washington City. ' ' The bacon found in the Dunn quarry was stolen from Ben. Smith, the tinner two sides were taken. G. W. Beauchamp, at one time a boot and shoe dealer of Greencastle, died atTerre Haute on Tuesday of last week. The weather during the past week has been uncommonly unpleasanthail, rain, snow, storms, freezes, thaws, wind-and green wood to burn. Indian Springs, Martin county, will be sold by auction next Saturday. $2,500 will buy the whole establishment with 120 acres of land, if no more is bid. Next Monday is the day fixed to vote upon the constitutional amendments. Of course you will come to the polls. Francis M. Oliphant, at one time a commissioner of this county, has purchased a $12,000 farm near Plainfield, Hendricks county. Col. G. W. Friedley went to Washington City to witness tbe inauguration ceremonies. Don't forget to hear Mr. A. P. Burb&nk, the celebrated roader, Konday evening, 3Inrch 14th, 1881. Tickets on sale at the Postoffico. There is a full city ticket to elect In May Treasurer, Clerk, Mayor and Conncilmen. The boys were plumping for keeps during the early part of last week, but the bl i zz ar a y w ea t h e r soon put a stop to that sport. Thomas Mullikin left Bloomington on Wednesday of last week for Tennessee, where he purposes visiting some of his relatives. He may conclude to remain there. Lewis Bollman's family arrived from Pittsburg last week, and are now permanently settled in the residence built by Mr. B. on his lots on North Walnut Street. There is much complaint of the rude and unbecoming conduct of half-grown boys and girls in church. Mrs. Robinson, the revivalist, is quick to detect such misconduct, and is not slow to reprove it. Ten weeks ago John Highet established a paper hdro called the Hawkeye. Monday a week he left for Madison, Ind., as be stated. As nothing has been heard of him since, tho office was closed by interested parties, on Sunday. D. O. Spencer, who claims to be a full partner, procured a ladder Monday, and climbing into a window, appointed himself receiver, and .closed the office up again. It is now in order for others who .have claims to close the office some more. Capt Fields of Ellcttsville bad a little tea party at his residence on "Wednesday last, attended by the following named Bloomington ladies: Mrs. W. B. T. Treat and daughter Hiss Mary, Mrs. Jennie Hoovor, Mrs. Howard, Mrs. Cbas. Mobley, Mrs. E. P. Adams, Mrs. Drory Hodges, Mrs. L. S. Field, Mrs. Myers and Miss Robinson. The snow storms of the past week have had a disheartening effect upon business men and agriculturists. Four solid months of snow! It is enough to cause one to emigrate to Yallejo. The letter of w.p.M. from Philadelphia, gives some very interesting particulars of the causes that led to Garfield's nomination, the men who accomplished it, as also the raising of $100,000 to promote the work of the campaign. It is doubtless true, every word of it, -Nearly all the Senators and Representatives from Southern Indiana -voted against the bill to give the right of suffrage to the women of Indiana, while the Central and Northern counties voted in favor of the proposition. The Northern half of the State is populous highly cultivated and abounds in turnpikes, railroads, and all that goes to make up a prosperous section. Can as much be said of Southern Indiana? There wa3 a man in Bloomington "Who was so wondrous wise, Ho thought his business would run itself, 60 he did n't adfertiee.

Wicks and Field will return from New York to-day. Next Monday is the constitutional amendment election day. Don't fail to cast your ballot. At this date last year the weather was mild, pleasant, and more like May than like March. Archibald Wilson, an old ciU izen of Ellettsvillo, has been dangerously sick lor some time past. Dr. Rhorer has recovered his health, and is now measuring calico on the south side. "Many friends " ought to begin nominating their candidates for city offices. John Hall, who lives west of town, says he owns a lamb, seven days old, that weighs eighteen pounds, Representative John W. Buskirk, made a gallant fight for the University appropriation,- and it was secured. The University can get along quite comfortably on $25,000 per year, the amount designated in the appropriation bill. An extra session of the Legis lature is inevitable. It is believed that it will require thirty days to consider the new Code. One of President Hayes's last and best acts was his veto of the three per cent, funding bill. It was a piece of impracticable and dangerous legislation. The Democrats are bitterly opposed to a registry law, and will resort to anything to defeat the constitutional amendment that favors fair elections. Wealth is an uncertain thing, Ten years ago Thomas Mullikin was estimated to be worth $100,000.

To day be carries the remnant of

his large estate in his pocket. Maj. Mulky was in Indianapolis last week looking after some business in the supreme court, and also aiding to throw light on the University question. Commissioner's Court is in session, with a very full docket. The gentlemen comprising . the Board are competent, however, to dispose of it. Alex. Weir who had been in bad health for several years, was taken suddenly sick while chopping wood, Tuesday of last week, and :died soon afterward. A good deal of noise was made over an error of $10,000,000 in the New York bank statements recently. A small sum to make a fuss about. Before gas works can be got into successful working order the new electric light will possibly su

percede it in public favor. Let us'

wait a little while before trying gas something better will be perfected. ' A number of new faces are seen on our streets, and there is a constant inquiry for dwelliug and business houses. A Dr. Hamilton has removed from Tipton, Ind. to

this place to go into the business of

dentistry. R. W. Miers, while at Indianapolis last week, rendered efficient services at a fire which occurred on the premises of Seuator McDonald, at whose residence Mr. M. was stoppingThe Butler dwelling, north of the Progress block, is for sale and can be bought on reasonable terms. It will be desirable as a business location before another year, and would be a paying investment for some one having money. tiff wt. Mathers took another fine lot of Jborces to Cincinnati, last Monday.

w It's an ill wind that blows no onigood" applies with equal force to fresbete. The bridge belonging to the Spencer quarry was carried away by the high waters in White River, and in consequence the Ellettsville quarries have been given large contracts. A man from Bedford wanted to know if that rail fence in the court house yard was the Observatory. He said that down' where he lived, if a citizen wanted to ' observe" a passing train, or a drove of cattle, he usually mounted the top-rail of a fence like that, Messrs. Batterton and Perry did not have very good success down in Greene the ducks began to come to the marshes just as the hunters were leaving for home. They secured a dozen green-heads. So soon as the weather lets op (let us pray for it) the railroad company proposes to make some very radical improvements on the line between Louisville and Chicago. Two years ago, at the city primaries, fifty to seventy-five more votes. were cast in some wards than there were voters. This is the kind of a farce that may bo fun for. the boysj but men who are entitled to a ballot cannot be expected to regard it with favor. From the following note it will be seen that Garfield has gone to housekeeping in Washington : "White House, March 5, 1831.

It ia daugerous for a passenger conductor on the Louisville fc Chicago railroad to take up a ticket without using his punch, even in the presence of the frowsiest tramp. Several of the despised gentry have bloomed into keen-eyed detectives, after reaching Louisville. Conductors must be cautious Svhen their trains meet and they step aside to compare runs. The Representative from Monroe, Hon. Johd W. Buskirk, has materially added to his reputation as an able lawyer and a loyal citizen by the conscientious; manner in which he has discharged his duties as a legislator. He has always been found at his post, ready and able to guard the interests of his constituents, and has done so. His successful labors for an increased university appropriation is something that he has reason to feel proud of, and the people here owe him a debt of gratitude for his efforts in their behalf.

Beuckerfc, who has been seriously afflicted with rheumatism, during the past year, will go to Lexington, ity., this week, where she will use the mineral waters of that section. A number of rowdy boya are running about the streets engaging, in all manner of ill-conduct; this too where public schools are free and aro open to all. You can soo tho dirty creatures on the streets every day, in truining for the penitentiary. "Who is to blame ? If the time between Louisville and Chicago i shortened two hours tho company will find it necessary to haul their trains with heavier engines. Those at present in use cannot make the -time now, slow as it is. Mr. Oliphant says the Progress was ' in error in stating that Mrs. MulliK'in's interest would ho paid so soon as it is determined. He insists that no such proposition has been inado. After an absenoe of a month in Pittsburg, Philadelphia, and othor eastern cities, Mr. McNary returned to Bloomington on last Friday. People seem to have tired of aleigh-riding. The merry jingle of the sleigh-bells, so common during the holiday season, was not heard duping the past month, though the supply of snow has been .more than equal to all demands The newspaper men have been having a great deal of trouble about General Garfield's Cabinet, The Progress could select a suitable aud satisfactory one right here in Monroe county.

Full 50,000 strangers poured into Washington by all rnauner of conveyance last Thursday, day and night, while a heavy rain fell, turning the snow into mud and slush. Thousands could not leave the depots to find lodging houses, and so remained standing or walking about all night. During the hours consumed in witnessing the pageant on Pennsylvania Avenue, a cold north wind chilled the sightseers, many of whom have doubtless contracted colds that will add their names to the death-roll. -Hut it was a glorious display !
