Summer Resorts on the Monon.

The summer resorts on the Monon Route are more than usually popular this year. West Baden and French Lick Springs, in Orange Co., are overflowing with visitors, and the hotels have all they can do. Paoli, the county seat has opened a rival sanitarium, which is well patronized. The waters of the various springs differ materially in their constituents, and are successfully prescribed for a great variety of maladies. The woods in the neighborhood abound in game and all the streamy teem with sish —some of them having been stocked by the "government fish commission. All indications point to West Baden (and the neighborhood springs) as the great sanitarium and popular summer resort of the west. Cedar Lake, forty miles from Chicago, is a favorite picnic and outing spot, where the Monon has a fine wooded~park of nearly 400 kcres. The fishing is first rate. Remember W. T.

Battle of Winchester Stephen A. Rolph Being Carried From " ~ - the Battle Field, When company H, Bth Ohio Regiment, started for the War of the Rebellion, Stephen A. Rolph, River Styx, Ohio, was numbered among the recruits; when next he returned to his home he was borne on a stretcher, having lost a leg in the battle of Winchester, Va., March 23, ’62. During the years following he did hot recover from the sfiock, privation and exposure incident to army life. In a recent interview he states: “I was stricken with nervous prostration a year ago, which continued for six months; I treated with the best physicians I could hear of, but they all failed; Dr. Wheeler’s Nerve Vitalizerwas recommended on account of its effectual treatment in similar cases. I could note a change from the first dose, improvement continued with its use and four bottles restored me to perfect health.
