The Graphic says the people of Spenceville are unanimously in favor of the proposed new county, when the contrary is the fact. I have lived here about eight years, and.am well acquainted. Up to the one express himself or herself in favon the contrary haye heard several talk strongly against it, I heard an old farmer and respected citizen say he would stand by the miners, for they had stood by him. — The feeling of the people here is a universal one of'sympathy for the miners.

My name is Michael Guilfoyle. I am seven ty-four years of age. For about nine years { was almost shut out fromthe world by rheumatism. I bad peddled ‘small wares in this city for years, and had to stop alto gether, Atthe best of times I. could only hobble miserably about with my cane. I was bent nearly double with pain and weakness, and my hands were useless to labo with. I was but'the poor wreck’ of @ once strong man, None of ti.e medicines usually yiyen for rheumatism did me the least good sir. My old friends and customers forgot me, as though I were under ground, “vith the ends of my nose and thetips of Turned he the roots of the daises.’ , “My days. and nights were wleful and painful. Thad no hope exceptin death, ‘That is God’s trath, and Mr. Mosher, here, knows it. “E can’t tell how, but Parkers Toxic curei me, That was three years ago, “I’m lively as a.cricket now, sir, and go my _busifess rounds every day, rain or shine, You ny tell this to all the world, and, refer the doubters to me.” This preparation, which has been known as PARKER'S GINGER Tonic, will be called cimply Parxer’s Toxic, This change is made for two reasons: first, because ginger is an dnimportant flavoring ingredient, and secondly, because. unptincipled dealers, dec_ive their customers by substituting infecior preparations under the name of ginger. There is no change, however, in the prepavation itself, and all bottles remaining in the hards of dealers wrapped uuder the camelof PaRKERS GixceR Toxic; contain the enuine medicine if the fac-simile signature vot Hiscox & Co, is at the bottom of the outside wrapper. * Assessment 1 Notice.

The Graphic says the people of Spenceville are unanimously in favor of the proposed new county, when the contrary is the fact. I have lived here about eight years, and.am well acquainted. Up to the one express himself or herself in favon the contrary haye heard several talk strongly against it, I heard an old farmer and respected citizen say he would stand by the miners, for they had stood by him. — The feeling of the people here is a universal one of'sympathy for the miners.

My name is Michael Guilfoyle. I am seven ty-four years of age. For about nine years { was almost shut out fromthe world by rheumatism. I bad peddled ‘small wares in this city for years, and had to stop alto gether, Atthe best of times I. could only hobble miserably about with my cane. I was bent nearly double with pain and weakness, and my hands were useless to labo with. I was but'the poor wreck’ of @ once strong man, None of ti.e medicines usually yiyen for rheumatism did me the least good sir.

Imagine his eight cents more on the bottle I sold him than I would have made‘on Ammen’s,” I said, ‘Oh, that’s it.” “Yes,” he says, *'I always recommend and try to sell what. pays me the largest protit.” Comment is unnecessary.
