Mrhrnae to Bnilol a Bsat to I'ly thc 3llttpil From Sluftratioe Xvrih and Month 80 to 60 Milrw. Messrs. James Fitzgerald and J. J. Wall, of Muacatioe. a-e tbe originators of & project looking to lhe construction of a local pagteoger arid freight boat of modern design to plj tbe Mississippi for 30 miles north and 60 miles south of that city. The News Tribune says of their undertaking: A few days ago they visited Davenport and Rock Island and were besnily en couraged by the residents of these cities, who effertd to take $10,000 stock or sufficient to pay for a good boat. While there they met two gentlemen, who real- zing what a fine or ening there was for a stiamer between Davenport and Buriing tnn, were about to agitate the question. n-cn or inem trlsdly took $1,000 worth of 6tock in lhe enteri rise and wanted more but this ws denied them as Messrs. Wall and Fnzser&Id wished to give Eoms of our Muscatine people a chance to in-, vest in it and others living at and be tween the terminal points of the proposed route of tbe boat so as to have a goodly number interested in it. The design and equipment of the boat has been settled upon in advance and correspondence relative to cost of ma chinery and other necessaries is under way. The boat will be 140 feet lone with a beam of 24 feet and will be pro vided witn two steam boilers, 20 feet long, with 46 inch shell. The engine will have cylinders of 12-inch bore and six feet long, thus furnishing from 50 to 100 per cent more power than is usually found on steamers of this size. It will have a full cabin and be allowed to carry 400 people without a barge. It will be fast enough to make the round trip of 180 miles daily ana will be built by May 1, either on lb a Rock Island or Dubuque ways. The projectors of the new enterprise are sanguine that it will be a rarely profi table one and allude to the fact that the Verne Swain, which plies between Clin ton and Davenport, and which originally cost $7,000. cleared $14,000 over opera- ting expenses tbe past season. Tbe cap tains of the Verne Strain and Freddie have both signified their intention of tak ing a liberal quantity of stock in the new boa. Tte boat will make 14 ports in all, landing at Divenport.

This is a step in the right dirrction, and has been long foreshadowed by the action of state legislatures, boards of health, food commissioners, etc , in this matter The bill affords needed protection to tbe public, for the evidence as to the inj iri ous effect 8 of alum and ammonia is very heavj; but it will nevertheless be fought bitterly by the manufacturers whom it effects who are accustomed to a 1 1 tneir goods as "pure Cream of Tartar," "ab solutely pure, etc. The bill is something needed.

" When I was 14 years of age I had a severe attack of rheumatism, and after I recovered had to go on crutches. A year later, scrofula, i:i the form of white swellings, appeared on various parts of my body, and for 11 years I was an invalid, being confined to my bed years. In that time ten or eleven sores ap peared and broke, causing me great pain and suffering. I feared I never should get well. Early in 1866 1 went to Chicago to visit a sister, but was confined to my bed most of tho time I was there. In July 1 read a book, 'A Day with a Circus,' in which were statements of cures by Hood's Sarsaparilla. I was so im pressed with tbe success of this medicine that I decided to try it. To my great gratification the sores soon decreased, and I began to feel better and in a short time I was up and out of doors. I continued to take Hood's Sar saparilla for about a year, when, having nsed six bottles, I had become so fully released from the disease that I went to work for the Flint & Walling Mfg. Co., and since then BAVK NOT LOST A SINGLE DAT . on account of sickness. I believe the disease is expelled from my system, I always feel well, am in good spirits and have a good appetite. I am now 27 years of age and can walk as well as any one, except that one limb is a little shorter than the other, owing to the loss of bone, and the sores formerly on my right leg. To my friends my recovery seems almost miraculous, and I think Hood's Sarsaparilla is the king of medicines. William A. Lehb, b K. Bailroad St., KendaUville, Ind.
