A Good Housewife.

The good housewife, when she is giving her house its spring renovating, should bear in mind that the dear inmates of her house are more precious than many houses, and that their systems need cleansing by purifying the blood, regulating the stomach and bowels to prevent and cure tho v diseases arising from spring malaria and miasma, and sho must know that there is nothing that will do it so perfectly and surely as Hop Bitters, the purest and best of medicines.—Concord (2V II ) Patriot. In 1830 John Forbes was Collector for Vermilion county, HI., which then included Chicago. Rather than incur the expense and trouble of a journey over the prairies to that town, he paid Chicago’s taxes out of his own pocket.
