The Old and Ever-Popular Tremont.

A hotel is always what its management makes it, and on this principle it is easy to account for the popularity of the Tremont House, of Chicago, for its corps contains some of the most capable hotel men in the country. John A. Rice, its proprietor, is the veteran * mine host” of Chicago and Ban Francisco, and on his staff are snoh experienced men as Frank Wentworth, exCity Treasurer and proprietor of the Briggs Honse, chief clerk; A H. Haskins, from tne Colonnade Hotel, Philadelphia, second clerk ; Sam Skinner, forsix years at the Stockton, Cape May, cashier ; with W. S. Shafer and Thomas Lord, recently of the Occidental, San Francisco, night clerks, and Henry Winter (one of the best men in his line in the West) as steward. With such men in their various positions, the excellence of this house is a natural result The destructive progress of that insidious foe to life and health, Scrofula, may be arrested by tho aid of Scovill’s Blood and Lives Sykup, a botanic depurent which rids the system or every trace or scrofulous or other poison and cures eruptive and other diseases indicative of a tainted condition of the blood. Among the maladies which it remedies are white swelling, salt rheum, carbuncles, biliousness, the diseases incident to women, gout and rheumatism. Some of the new styles of Mason & Hamlin Cabinet Organs introduce a style of finish with embos-ed gold-bronze ornamentation, by a new S recess; at once the most elegant and chaste nish yet employed on such instruments. Prices are very low for such workmanship. Mrs. Joseph Craft, formerly Amanda Lawrence, of St L iuis, Mo. (or her heirs), bv corresponding with P. M Failey, of Hollis, N. H., or Louisa Fletcher, of Weatford, Mass., will learn something to her advantage.
