If .the patient gals impure spirits these made poisonous by dishonest city rectifiers the effect is very bar vnful. A reputation for securing and selling only pure and unadulterated liquors, is wor'.h something' to a man. Such a reputation August Krouger has earned by many years of experience, a&d persons who re
quire whisky or brandy tor medicinal purposes, mar rest assured thnt when they buy it of Kreuger, they gat it as it comes from the distillery, without any doctoring. The best of anything is none too good for
the people, and while they lire buying they should get tbe best it is cheapest.

No Hardware house in this region carries a larger or more carefully selected stock than that of W. J, Allen, on the south side of tbe epuare.
