Some of our wags referred her to some of our peaceable citizens as being the probable author of the ar ticle in question. The way she set tled down on them was never learnt out of any prayer book, and will be long remembered for its furor and eloquence if not for its purity. A number of t be boys were re turning from a dance late or rather ?arly the other morning, and when Hearing the Itaploy House were briskly discussing the fun in which they had been participating, when they were suddenly started by a ter rible growl which proceeded Irom a hlaek object that sprung up by the road side before them. Thinking Hank Gris wold's bear had got loose tho boys made some tall stepping to get a place of safety.

It is said that r0.000 people die an nually iii the Cnitcd States alone from this disease. In some sections of the country one death in every three, is from Consumption. This can be, and should be avoidi d ; our people are too careless about an ordinary cough or cold, and other symptoms of throat and lung affections that lead to this disease. You shoul.l arrest it while It Is in the germ. Two or three dose of Dr. Bosanko ComjIi and Lupg Syrup will relieve an ordinary cough or cold. It does not dry up a couiib like many preparations on the market and leave tho disease behind it, b it acts directly on the thro.it and bron chial tubes, removing all the phlegm and morbid matter that accumulates in the throat nnd lungs. It allays all irritation, and renders the voice clear nd distinct. Sold by I A. B iker. W. & J. Carriage and BROCKWAY, .
