g zJ AN Something is lost when you use Dr. Sago’s‘Catarrh Remedy. It’s Catarrh. The worst cases yield to its mild, soothing, cleansing, and healing properties. No matter how bad your case, or of how long standing, you can be cured. Incurable cases are rare. It’s worth SSOO to you, if you have one. The manufacturers of Dr. Sage’s Remedy are looking for them. They’ll pay you that amount in cash, if they can’t cure you. It’s a plain square offer from a responsible busmess house, an.d they mean it. It seems too dhe-sided, too much of a risk, it Avould be—with any other medicine behind it. It only goes to prove what’s been said : incurable cases arc rare —with Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. Other so-called remedies may palliate for a time ; this cures for all time. By its mild, soothing, cleansing and healing properties, it conquers the worst cases. Jt removes offensive breath, loss or impairment ; of the sense of taste, smell or hearing, watering or weak eyes, when caused by the violence of Catarrh, as they all frequently are. Remedy sold by druggists, only 50 cents. Bad Craggy® Kd9 ^RveToH^ Two BottlV* Cured Her. VI Carroll, la., July, 1839. I was suffering 10 years irom shocks in my ■ head, so much so that at times I didn't expect to recover. I took aiedioines from many doctors, butdid not#®-any relief until I took Pastor Koenig’s Nerve Tonic; the scoond dose relieved me and a bottles eared me. 8. W. FECK.

Tho notorious outlaw, Job Sims, has returned to Choctaw County, Ala. Mr. John McMillan, a merchant of Choctaw County, was receiving a load of merchandise fr tn tho landing, and Job Sims leveled a Winchester rille on the driver and made him unload tho goods at Sims’ house, and sent McMillan word he would burn his house and kill him. McMillan's house xvas guar.led that night, but one night recently, at 11 o < io k seven of the Sims gang, all armed witli Winchesters, fired McMillan’s house and shot the occupants as they ran out. Charley L'tsy escaped unhunt; Fluellen Utsy was shot, but n>ot mortally wounded: John Kennedy, McMillan’s father-in-law, was killed; John McMillan xvas shot three times and will die; the 12-year-old niece of McMillan was killed; a 10-year-oid nephew was shot in the house and burned up; Miss l ello McKenzie, a s. hool teacher boarding at McMillan’s, was shot twice in tho neck. 3he miscreants then opened McMillan’s store, robbed it of what goods they xvanted, and left it lighted up and open, scattering shoes along tho road. Sims’ daughters are dressed in men’s clothes and armed xvith Winchesters at Sims’ house, and are supposed to be part of the seven. A largo body of men are after tho gang, and will never stop until they catch them.

the duke and the farmer. How an Old Tenant Farmer Interviewed His Noble Landlord. I’hey say that tube late Duke of Bedford's Tavisto k agent, now deceased, has reputed to carry matters with a somewhat high and even tyrannical I and, and, hav ng a desire to benefit a neighbor ng tenant, had given an old firmer notice to quit possession of a field which for several generations had been part and parcel of the farm which he and his fathers before him had rented from tho Duke. This interfe once was greatly resented by the farmer, who, however, could get nc satisfaction from the agent, and finally left the latter with the threat that he would “see tho Duke,” a threat which the agent heard with little concern, knowing well that the old man had never strayed mo:e than a few miles from Tavistock, and judging accordingly that he was not likely to journey suddenly to “Lunnon.” lie reckoned, however, without knowledge, for the old fa’ me; went straight home, donned his “Sunday best.” and, to tho amazement of his folk, marched off to the rai way station and took his ticket lor Paddington. The scene changes to tho mansion in Easton square, where about 7 p. in. an old countryman, dressed in the style of fifty years ago, knocks at tho door and, in excited and well-nigh breathless accents. asks tho footman who opens it if “Mr. Duke of Bedfoid” lived there. Tho foo man guessed something of tho state of the case and forthwith took wo d to his grace that one of his Tavistock tenants wished to see him. and immedia ely the o d man was ushered into tho presence of “Nir. Dake ” Not till then did the old farmer's courage give way, but seated in the luxurious library, words altogether failed him. Tho Duke ordered up refreshments, but they were refused by the old man until lio had told his tale, which ho did in broken accents, and tho Duke listened attentively, asking one or two simple but direct questions, and then told his old tenant, that ho need not trouble any more, as lie should give orders that his tenancy was not to bo disturbed. But the Duke's kindness did not end there, for. ascertaining that tho old man had no notion as to a night s lodging, or. indeed of his next step, the Duke ordered his carriage, had the old man driven to Paddington and safely deposited in tho night mail with a first-class ticket to Tavistock in his pocket. A Very Common XVant. “Out of sorta,” “distrait," “the blues,” these are fan iliar appellatives for uncomfortable, nndeflnable sensations. ace mpanied with lassitude, nervousness, indigestion.

In England, Fratice, Germany, and some other countries, but espec ally in Germany, this industry has attained such prodigious growth that in some cases the extensive works resemble a small town or vil age. This appears from the publi bed statistics of one of those plants—that of the 1 arbwerke, at Hoechst on-Nain. where are employed some 1,(00 workmen, 50 foremen, 9 engineers, besides 86 clerks and 57 chemists. The xvorks cover an area of 726,000 square yards, and from one’end of the works to tho other the distance is 3,300 feet Besides a great variety of dyestuffs, tho acids employed in their production arc also manufactured. amounting in one year to 23,108,000 kilograms of sulphuric acid, 12,800,000 of other acids, and 3,624,000 of coal tar products.

How the Moon XX’as Born. When the earth was young, says Dr. Ball, astronomer for royal Ireland, it spun around at such a rate that the day was only three hours long. The earth was liquid then, and as it revolved at that fearful speed the sun caused ever Increasing tides upon its surface until at last it burst in two. The smaller part became the moon, xvhich has been going around the earth ever s nee at an Increasing distance. The influence of the moon now raises tides on the earth, and while there was any liquid to apera e on in the moon, the earth hea/jjt up much greater lunar tides.

The United States Supreme Court has postponed until the second Mon-1 day in January the hearing of the cases of Fielding and Schwab, the Chicago anarchists who are now in prison in Joliet for their participation in the Haymarket massacre. These men were filled with an unutterable longing. If they had taken Reid’s German Cough and Kidney Cure the mists that clouded their brains would have been dispersed. They xvould have found that the evils of which they complained were largely the result of ill-health. They would have gone to xvork to better their own condition and those of others by encouraging habits of industry and thrift. This they could have done by taking Reid's German Cough and Ki®ney Cure, and thus banishing disease from their folloxvers. This great remedy contains no poison, but it is the best thing for all lung and throat troubles on the market. It is a remedy that is the particular and special friend of the poor man, for it will cure his wife and children of half the troubles that afflict them without the aid of the doctor.
