AMERICAN LINE.

To Paris Exposition and EuropeThis being the only line plying between Europe and America sailing under the American Flag, it has a special claim for the active sympathy and patronage of the American people. The ships of the American Line are classed in the very highest grade of Bureau Veritas, whos rules for the construction of iron steamships are of the strictest character. They are equipped in full conformity with the very rigid laws of the United Bt*tes for the protection of passengers by sea, their Life-saviug Aparatus being pronounced by the Supervising In. epector General of the United States Navy to be superior to that of any other transatlantic line.

Jasper County Normal Institute.

Teachers and other interested parties are notified that a Normal Institute will be opened in the Rensselaer public school building, July 29, 1878, and closing with the annual county institute, August 30, under the instruction and management of Prof, G. W. Allen, principal of the Rensselaer schools, A Beery, a graduate of the Central Indiana Normal School and County Superintendent J. H. Snoddy. Assurance has already been received of an attendance of over a hundred pupils, and it is confidently expected that this will bo more than realized. Other competent instructors will be secured if needed. Instruction will be given in all the common school branches—zoology, mental philosophy applied to educational methods, and the theory and practice of teaching. Arrangements will be made for board at reasonable rates, and facilities for those desiring to board themselves, at a greatly reduced outlay, will also be presented. Large suras of money are annually paid by the citizens of Jasper county for the education of her teachers and pupils in other localities, where the facilities are no better than those offered by the Jasper county Normal. Let this money be kept at home, and let this effort tending toward the establishment of a permanent institution for the education of our teachers and the culture of our youth, be properly sustained by all parties truly interested in the educational progress of our county. There are no diseases of the Nerve System but can be cured by “Lawson’s Curative.” Aggravated cases of Neuralgia, Tic Douloureux, Toothache, Nervous Headache, Sciatica, can always be relieved by energetic applicatioe of the “Curative” according to directions which accompany each bottle.

Onimpeachalile Testimony. In presenting the following letters to the public we will only say, that they are selected from a large number which we are constantly receiving from all sections. They speak for themselves and should satisfy the most skeptical of the value of Lawson’s Curative: NEURALCIA 4 YEARS. B::rea, 0., Dec., 1876. Gentlemen—Having suffered with neuralgia 01' the muscles for four years, and used the vario-.u remedies which are advertised, with little cr no relief, I was induced to try your Curative. From using one bottle I ant entirely cured of pain, but shall apply still another to completely erad cate the disease from the system, which 1 have every confidence to believe your remedy will do. R. RUSSELL SCIATIC RHEUtdATgSfifIT Cl-KVULand, 0., Dec. 26th, 1876. Gentlemen —I desire to make a statement regarding the effect of your Curative upon me. I suffered intensely for two months with Sciatic Rheumatism, and naturally tried all the remedies I could hear of, the Curative among the othur,, butfou. d no relief, and came to the conclusion there was no cure for it. I was persuaded finally to give your Curative a thorough trial, by one who had Iwstft cured. I again commenced applying the Curative in earnest, under his direction, and in a week's time I was free from pain and well. I firmly believe every case of Rheumatism will yield to Lawson’s Curative, but it must be Used freely and persistently as you direct. JAMES H. BROWN. The importance of taa thorough use of the medicine cannot be too strongly impressed on the patients. It will cure every time when used as we direct. See circulars around each bottle. SORE THROAT.
