N.Coni, of Louisville, and the statement ot his cure after years of suffering with Rheumatism by St. Jacobs Oil, pur. exchange says: Such indorsements, coming' from our own people, leave no doubt that the emphatic claims made in the interest of St. Jacobs Oil are fully justified. An - old California prospector, of this city, is of the* opinion that the North Pole is a solid mass of gold. He says it eau not be otherwise, for the reason that all gold-bearing true fissure veins, in all parts of the world, run in the direction of the North Pole, just like the parallels of longitude, fein t that, like these, all the gold veins must come together at the Pole and end in a great golden knob.—• P iryiiiin Territorial Knterprinr.

Very shortly after she had taken a dose of the remedy she experienced relief, and was able to walk across the room. She continued to take the medicine and recently declared herself entirely cured, and is able to attend to her daiiv work, as well as when seventeen years of age. As Bridgewater (Mass, ( young man being in Kansas, and desiring to get hr.me but minus the means, resorted to the ingenious device of having a telegram sent to his friends saying that he was dead and desiring money to forward the body.
