To Our Patrons.
We ask the indulgence for a few days, of
such of our patrons as are accustomed to
visit the GAZETTE Carlos, for the transac-
tion of business. The rapid increase of trade
which has resulted to the Messrs. Scormm
&. Horr,’ since their removal into the
GAZETTE BUILDING, has necessitated an en-
largement of their store. To accommodate
this necessity, we have been obliged to. sur-
render a large portion of our former business
office and remove up stairs, into the room
over the dry goods store of Mr. Street. We
are hurrying forward, with all possible
celerity, a series of enlargements and im-
provements, which when completed, will
render our‘ofiloe more attractive, convenient
and satisfactbry to our many friends, than it
has ever been before. In this general “over-
haul," we shall entirely rearrange and extend
our real- ofiicc, several feet westward. Our
heavy newspaper press, weighing over two
tons, and our largest powar jobbiug presses,
9 will be placed on solid foundations on the
ground floor, beneath our former counting
room. Our several smaller jobbing presses,
paper cutter and kindred mechanisms, will
then be placed in positions over the newspa-
per presses, in our former front ofilce. This
will give our job compositors advantages of
light and proxomity to their type cases, etc.,
never before enjoyed. The composition for
the newspaper, will be carried on in the
large rooms at the head of the GAZETTE
BUILDING stairs, and formerly occupied by
‘McKeon, the tailor and Messrs. Readmau,
photograpers. Thus our present main office,
while very easy of access, will still be ex-
empt from the almost constant interruptions
andannoyanccs, inevitable from the situa-
tion and circumstances of the old office.
For the present, our business office will be
found in these rooms, the first at the‘ head of
the GAZETTE BUILDING entrance stairs. The
Messrs. Readman to accommodate our needs,
remove their reception room to the office
room immediately over the GAZETTE efilce
entrance hall, at the top of the, stairs and the
one occupied so long by Hurlbutt & Relyea.
Mr. Street will extend the rear of his store,
across and over the drift way, to the wall of
our printing ofiice building, thus securing an
important addition of room to accommodate
his rapidly growing dry goods trade. Above,
St. John’s Lodge is to extend their ante-
room, across and join updn the top of the
present printing ofiioe building and there
have erected a banquet hall of some 20x23
feet. Gas, water, and all the “modern im«
provemeuts,” will be introduced upon every
story. We are sure thattour many business
friends, will not only rejoice with us, when
all this work is completed, but will wonder,
as we do, how we could have gotten on so
many years without these almost indispen-
sable improvements.
From the notice of the dissolution of co-
partuership, which appears in to-day’s
GAZETTE, it will be seen that after a faith-
ELLs brothers have re-sold their interest in
the GAZETTE, back to the senior of the
firm. .
A more extended and definite reference to
the severance of these exceptionally long and
pleasant business relations, will be given
hereafter, and when upon the completion
and reorganization and refitting of the
GAZETTE OFFICE, it may more appropriately
be done.
The Political Situation.
With Ohio overwhelmingly democratic on
the liquor issue, with Pennsylvania and New
York sure to be lost to the republican party, _
.it cannot be claimed by any reasonable ‘
friend of our cause, that the political out-
look is unwontedly encouraging. Yet, if
local and personal quarrels do abound to Ian
' extent never before known in the republi-
can ranks, there is“ this bit of consolation,
that if dissensions and defeat [must come, it
is far better that they come now than two
years later, when our national administra-
tion would be involved and imperaicd. As
it is, the wars of the “Bosses" and “Bossism”
may cause us temporary defeat, but the
ultimate result will be thevsame aswhen
Patrick and Bridget have their family
“motions." “Life is all the swather afther
it” says Bridget and the intensity of the new
- love more than makes up for the damage
of the old quarrel. We do not look upon
such temporaryl checks as unmixed evils.
Political managers must and will learn that
the opinions of the masses of the people,
must and will govern. No one man, no com
r bination of men, and no set of political
tricksters, can. long bind the people of this
country tozcxecute their behests or follow
like whipped spaniels, the dictates of
party, unless that party be governed by up-
rightness, common sense and for the public’c"1
best interests. The republican party lives
and will live, because it is a party “of the
mph and for the people.” Its past his-
tory is an inestimable legacy to its followers
and to mankind. But it must not be 06n-
tent to live in the past. It must take up the
present issues of government and press for-
: ward. It is the party of the future, far
more grandiy than the past, sublime as its
past record is. The republican party lives
and will continue to live, because it contains
the character, the brains and the “conscience
of the People of this great Nation.
Let any‘”“faiut-hearted republican bear
steadilyiu mind, that whatever dissection
arises in our ranks, it carries no recrutiug
strength to the enemy. No republican,
chagrined at the bad management of his
party leaders, or the worse character of the
nominees of his party, ever thinks of going
over to the democrats because of it, but
standing in his own party ranks, he dares to
condemn what he believes to be wrong. Thus ’
do republicans quarrel within the party and
thus is frequent and lasting good, brought
out of our jarring, party. discards. We
believe we are to be all the stronger and
more resolute and united in 1884, for what-
ever of defeat our apathy or dimensions may
cause us this fall. .

Jordan may have been a hard‘road to
travel, but it could not have been ropgher

It must impress every honest and intelli-
gent mind that has any knowledge whatever '
upon the subject of the passage of the last
or else the very densest ignorance displayed,
in the clamor raised against those congress-
men who voted for that great National
measure. Uupopular though it be, we do
not hesitate to aver \of our own personal
knowledge/that the last River and Harbor
Bill was the wisest, most judicious and best
cvcr'passed by the American Congress! We
defiantly challenge contradiction of our bold
assertion. No previous bill was ever more
carefully and critically scanned and consid-
ered, and we have no appology to make for
any Republican Senator or Member, who
voted for its passage over the President's veto.
Ou the contrary, every such “member-is cuti-
tled to and will yet receive the praises and
gratitude of the whole people, when all the
facts are understood and when the dust set-
tles, now thrown into the air by designing
demagogues. Let us look at this Bill and
see what it is that has raised so much igno-
rant clainor. It has been the settled policy
of the Government and/especially of the Re-
publican party, to promote and encourage
' Internal Improvements. To this end, the
money appropriated by all previous Congress-
es haa been expended for the public good;
and for the develpment and prosperity of the
whole country. For be it remembered, that
every poor man’s, as well every rich man’s,
barrel of flour, or bed of coal, is brought to.
his door, cheaper in cost, by reason of the ju-
dicious expenditure of the appropriations in
the annual Rigor and Harbor Bills. And again
let it be remembered, that not a dollar of this
appropriation can be expended except under
the control and direction of the President
and his Secretary of War, after such expend-
iture has been recommended by the educa-
ted and trained engineers of the Government.
We chance to know that all along the shore
line of Connecticut and :of her three princi-
pal rivers, the citizens and business men ti
those localities, were every session urging
our Representatives to see to it that our com-
mercial interests were promoted by appropria-
tions for the Cleaning out of obstructions in
our state waters. To illustrate more directly
and clearly, let us. instance our harbor here
in Norwalk. The Government engineer was
ordered here, after petition upon petition had
been sent to Washington to have a survey
made. When finally it was ordered by the
Engineer Bureau of . the War Department,
the late General Warren, who had, charge of
this duty, estimated that $25,000 would be
required to cut out the deposits here ob-
structiug navigation to such an extent, that
a charge of fifty cents more a ton on coal Was
made by owners of vessels, to be filivered
here than at Black Rock or Bridgeport. The
War Department recommended the appropri-
ation of the $25,000. Had this sum been
given in' one amount, or even $20,000, the
probabilities are, that it would. have cleared
our harbor from the “Bridge” to the open
channel of the Sound. What has been done
and what is the result 1’ We got $10,000.,
that? year, and not more than half of the de-
posits were cut out. The next Winter and
Spring there was a freshest that filled in again
all that had been cleared. Since then, but
five thousgnd dollars per year have been ap-
propriated for Norwalk Harbor. To date
and including the $5,000 appropriated in the
last Big, $80,000 have been appropriated and
875,00 have been expended and yet the
work is barely half done. The waste and
scandal, if there be any, is making the appro-
priations too entail to effectively do the work.
the first year at a cost of $25,000, or even
$20,000, the channel currents and tides
would have kept it clear. so that vessels of
all ordinory touage would be as willing to run
up to Norwalk Bridge as togmako a dock at
New London. The outcry against the pres;
eut Bill, is because it appropriates so much
money. The real fault with this Bill, as with
most of its predicessors, is that it appropri-
ates too little, to accomplish the work in the
best and most economical manner. No bus-
iness man worthy the name, would expend
his money thus wastefully by reason of too
great parsimony.

most true. Four millions, one hundred and
twenty-three thousand dollars of the aggre-
“gate, was for the Mississippi river improve-
»“ments. Large sections of country extending
from 40 to 400 milés in extent, were last
spring innundated, and the bitter wail of de-
struction, destitution and death, that came
up from the innundated portions of the Mis-
sissippi valley touched theheart of the Nation
and private succor was everywhere invoked
and bestowed, and the Government would
have been culpably remiss and justly deserv-
ed the reproach of the civilized world, had it
not appropriated for the prevention of such
deluging of the land, in the future.
there was an universal demand that the ma-
larial and death inflicting flats of the Poto-
mac opposite the National Capitol should be
cut out or covered up and a large appropria-
tion was wisely made for that much needed
public Work. Leaving out these two extra-,.
ordinary apft’ropri‘ationsfiand. the River and
Harbor Bill of 1882 is not largely in excess
of other years, when nothing but praises and
commendatious have been bestowed by a
grateful constituency upon the Representa-
tive who was most active and successful in
securing a liberal share of such appropriations
for his District.
It should be borne in mind that every dol-
lar honestly expended to open up our rivers
and harbors to, thecommercc of the Nation,
enhances the value of every product of the
farm, workshop or factory, while it so cheap-
ens transportation charges, that every man
who buys his food or fan], is essetially bene-
fitted thereby. No, no, Senators and Repre—
sehthtives from ConnectiCut, one and all of
you—we tender you.our congratulations and
Our thanks, for you voted entirely and well, in
your support of the River and Harbor Bill,
"and you need attempt no appology, for none
is needed and the “sober second thought” of
the people, will yet vindicate and praise
your patriotism and fidelity to your constitu-
ents and to your state. Your votes have re-
sulted only in conferring a'great public bene-
fit, and we tender you our humble, but sin-
core, and at least, well. informed, gratitude
for the support you gave that great National
measure. ,
The complaint made by some, that it was
a wrong and discourtcous act to pass the
River and Harbor Bill 0ch the President’s
Veto, falls to the ground, when itzis consid-
ered that the President himself recommended
the two special items that have made the bill
objectionable on the score of its large aggre-
gate amount. These were the Potomac flats
and the Mississippi RiVer improvement ap-
priations. With these two large appropria-
tions cut out, there could be and there would
be nof complaint. This farcical yelp ‘of op-
position and “fraud” raised by the democracy
and the Independent press, is as ignorant,
unjustifiable and séuseless as was the wild
cry of the mob at Ephesus when it shouted—
“Great is Diana of the Ephesians.” '

Already the question is being widely dis-
cussed as to who shall be theRepublicau cani
didates to represent the’Town of Norwalk in
River and Harbor Bill, that there is either a the coming state Legislature. Without any
deal of deceptive pretense and demagogueism desire to interefere wuh the aspirations of
any locally ambitious aspirant, we are confi-
dent that we voice thc almost universal desire
of the working element in our party when
we express the wish that our last year’s Rep-
resentatives might be reuomiuated and elect-
ed. If they will consent to again represent
our town, as creditably as they did last year,
it is not only the wisest thing to do, in our
judgment, but the widest public gratitude
will be their due. Messrs. Oowles and Bell
placed our town in that creditable position
which is our due, whep our population, com-
mercial importance, wealth and character are
taken into the account.“ They have “learned
tlfcir trade," as it were, and it would be sheer
folly not to let our town reap the benefits of
their Legislative experience. We believe,
also, that no stronger ticket could possibly be
selected and we hope and believe that our last
year’s Representatives. will be unanimously
nominatedaud triumphantly elected.

Our readers will observe-by the above
from the Sentinel, that a new ' danger
threatens the “Old“ HeurClub," and as it is
one of serious nature theyand‘their friends

romember‘wlietil‘er ""Bufiou" in his natural
history, , particularly specifies the peculiar
dangers that hoist the hen family, but we
believe that the general public will admit,
that for :the infant chicks, untimely frosts
and the hawk are“ the most destructive,
while hens of older growth have peculiar
qualities that attract the plantation darkey,
at the south, and the animal known as the
skunk,iu the coldcr'regions. This is proved
by the fact that one of the latter animals
was found dead under the roost of the 'old
hen club, a few evenings since, audit is a
matter of gratulatiou'to the friends'of the
old hens to know that’his skunk-hip lost his
life in his efforts to get snapper. -
In what particular manner, or from what
cause his death was brought about,is not stat-
ed, norjs thcrcrauy published account of an
inquest, which certainly is remarkable for
that locality. 7 .-
iThera are various surmises as to the cause
of deathhthe two most 'curreut are that the
animal partook 0f same of the curative com- '
pounds stored in said collar. or that he ac-
tually ate one of the old hens, and died from
indigestion. Some profess to believe that
the poor animal partook both of the medi-
cine and suck! hen, but that is not proba-
ble, for he could hardly have survived the
one long enough to have partaken of the
other, especially if he ate the old henfirst. .

“The Winning Ticket.”
[Deferred lrom last week] .
Our friend of the Democrat, in his effort to
hide his grimmaces at swallowing the Wal-h
ler Ticket crow, heads the list of candidates
- for state officer-é, in his last paper, as above.
It“ may be .unreds'oilable to expect any sort,
:‘of consistency from a democrat anyway and
absolutely cruel to hold one to the record,
but just below this Waller ticket which is
‘toiwiu, is the following, headline, italics 'aud '
“1:, ,
.. " The Black List.
" “We shall continue the publication of this
list in our columns. ,It is well known that
nine-tenths of the people of this State are in
favor of an opposition railroad, and alike wall
understand that the members of the General
Assembly who 'voted- against it did so filr a
consideration. These members are all marked,
and will beremembered by theirconstituen-
cy as in'onopolists’ ”and traitors to their inter-
ests. The mark of Cain is indelibly branded
upon thebrow (if each of them. There we ‘
mean it shall remain.” , . . '
Tumour-friend has, published in mourning
lines, a list of those from the , different.
counties who voted es. the special charter
, for an opposition Railroad, from the day the
vote was-taken in the’ Legislature up. to the
present time. In this “black list," among
the Representatives from Middlesex County
we find the name of
' g D. WARD NORTHROP
who also stands out in bold capitals as can-
didate fer Secretary of State under the head .
of “The Winning Ticket";
3’ Now it strikes us that if the ‘ ‘mark of Cain
is indelibly branded upon the‘, brow of” Mr.
Northrop, the‘democratic nominee for.Sec-'
rotary of State, and if it be true as the
Democrat .says, f'that the‘ members of the
General Allsembly who voted against it [the
opposition road] did .so for a consideration,”
what are we innocent Republicans to think
of Mr. Northrop,_the man whom the demo-
crats themselves thus. pillory in their “0r-
ggn ?” . _ , .‘ .
. We have never seen our friend the Editor
of the Democrat when we had any right to
suspect that he had been guilty of over in-
dulgehce in democratic beverages, but in
view of the above and the following caption
to his editorial rhapscdy last Saturday, which
is as follows :— . -
Our Candidates.
EEEEAEX mam! 111711an !
We place at the head of our columns the
nominees of the Democraticpouvontlou. held
1.. Hartford, lust vvednesday. - No more bar--
monious convention was ever held in this
State, and no better platform or ticket was
ever thrown to the breeze than that made by
the convention, .. . _, .
—we are a good deal perplexed to conjecture
what ails the man! _
Thentoo, look'at this: :
“His [George G. Sumner] nemiuation for
Lieut-‘Governor adds greatly to the strength
of the ticket, as does also that of D.“ W.
.ggztlhfop, of Middletown, for secretary of
e.
Has the man gone clean daft ? Arc demo-
cratic voters a class that can thus be imposed
upon ? It would seem to be hard enough for
our neighbor to ride two horses at once, but
such an attempt when his horses run in
opposite directions must of. necessity one
horse him, and leave him ,tumbliug in the
sawdust as his party is sure to do in Novem-
ber. Then he patronizingly concludes his
stilted rhetoric with this: . . _
‘ 7 _!‘Everybody_- in Fairfield‘ kuows- ‘Long
Tom’ Sanford, whose majority here will re-
mind allof old Jackson days." ‘ .
Everybody in Reddlug, might possibly
know “Long Tom," but why in Fab-field?
And why not in Westport or Weston? as
well as Fairfield ? We fear, to be entirely
serious, that our neighbor’s disappointment
and disgust with his ticket is so intense, that
it has made him thus wildly reckless or else
a hopeless maniac. '
Congressional.
Saturday’s Democrat says: '
“In the first district the Convention was
heldinHartford on Tuesday, and was fully
represented. The Nestor of the Democracy
of the State, Ex-Seuator WILLIAM W. EATON
was nominated by aoclamation. He accept-
ed the nomination in- an able and eloquent
manner.” . ' .
, “The ognveution for the second district
was held a New Haven, on Thursday, and»
placed in nomination Charles L. Mitchell
who isa new man'in political life. He is
said to be a gentleman of ablity and ‘steriing’
integrity.” ‘
“ l‘he convention in our district (the fourth)
was held in Bridgeport on Tuesday. "' *
100me W. Santana was nominated (by a
rising vote)!unauimously amid great applaus.
Respecting this nomination, we can truly
,say that it is the best possible one that could
have been made. Senator Seymour is (like
our excellent candidate for» Governor.) one
of the ouug and rising Democracy. He is
about arty-five years of age, a ‘suu’ of the
late lamented Chief Justice of our State."
Our neighbor of the Democrat is certainly
“unsettled in his mind." or course our good
friend, Ex-Seuator Eaton would accept a
congressional nomination: “in an able and
eloquent manner.” But in“ "view of L’the charge
made by disaffected democrats in the New
Haven district that Mitchell got his nomi-
nation by a purchase of delegates. is it not
arlittle inconsiderate in the Democrat in
introducing the word "sterling” into his
editorial remarks? ,_ It is so suggestive of
British sterling, you knew. But our 'ueigh-,
bar is most “mixed up" on his own district
candidate, Hon. E. W. Seyuibur. He dubs
hint!“8cnatdr" Seymour, whereas it is Ed-
ward’s brother who issupposed to be the
Senator, dud more;.tllau all, the Democrat
says he is it “sun of the late lamented Chief

that Edward used to make it hot for his
father? , Well, after all, between our

To TEE Eamon-rill GAZETTE :— “ ,,
DEAN Sm :-‘I noticed in your valuable
paper of the 15th “September, a statement
of the town affairs 'fo‘r the past eleveui‘years;
and that statement was headed “Letters from
the People.” Now, “Mr. Editor, I think that
statement must have come from one man,
judgingfrom the~incorrectness~of the state-
ment. I do» not think the mau,that sent you
that letter meat to "tell a wilful falsehood,
but I do think that he meant to “deceive the
tax-payers of the town of Norwalk, in order
to get elected to the officeof; firsttSelectmau
again this fall. But he was doomed to dis-
appointment, and in my judgment it was a
good thing for the tax payers of the town of
Norwalk: , We ueed'go back only o'ueyear
ago, wh“cu’he:tried to break up’ the 'Republi-
can party‘iu this town,’ and virtually did so,
and was the cause of defeating one of his
best friends (H. ‘K. .I Selleck). And then
again this fall, getting the very worst ele-
ments in society, those who care nothing for
law er Order, to go into our Republican cau-
cus, in ordér to have him elected for the
ofilcc of First Selectman. Mr. Editor, you
see by the vote (if Oct. 2d, that the tax-pay-
ers of Norwalk will not stand a nomination
by that'elemcut. Now, Mr. Editor, I see by
that lctter,'the writer refers to the different
years when he was Selectman. I do not
caroto go back to 1872, and follow the rec-
ords to 1880, during which he was First Se-
lectmen—six“ years. 'I will only take the
year from Oct. 1st;‘1870_, to Oct. 1st, 1880,
and it is not necessary to go into all of the
details of this year, but simply to allude to a
few items which I think will be interesting
to the tax-payers of our town. . Now in the
first place, at the annual town meeting in
1880, when the Selectmeu’s report was read.
not more than one man at that meeting knew
anything about how the, town stood finan-
cially. I am sorry to say this, but‘how can
it be otherwise, when there are thousands of
dollars of bills contracted, and in the office.
when the report was made up,“ and no men-
tion made of “it ? Why were' they not paid,
and put in the report ? Echo answers why?
'It seems to me the reason that he did not
put’them in his report was, because he wan-
ted to make it appear that he was running
the town very economically, and by so doing
remain in office the balance of his naturtil
life. These are facts that cannot be contra-
dicted. I will give some of the items that
were left over, and had to be paid by the
town in 1881. . ' ,
Paid the Burrough of Norwalk, three
“thousand dollars, one half of 'which was due
in his administration. ,
Paid City of South Norwaik, five hundred
dollars, which should have [been paid when
he was Selectman.
Also, settled with the town of Naugatuck,
-for the supportOf-k child belonging to the
town of Norwalk, the account having been
standing five or six“ years. It is true the bill
was. only about four hundred dollars, but
that is something. And now we come to the
poor outside/tile Aims House. It will be re-
membered that the winter of 1880-81‘, was
the worst wiu’ter for poor folks ’that we have
had for 12 years, it being a long, tedious,
cold winter. And now for the Alms House
expenses. -. . . - ~
‘ That letter says, In 1880 the expenses of
the Aims House were $2488.13, and in 1881
82595.78. Now why is this i"
In 1881, the town furnished the Aims
House with iron be_dsteads and blankets, of
which the house . was destitute, and that is
not all. Another small item of about four
hundred dollars of bills contracted by An-
drew Selleck in 1880, and paid by the Select-
men iu 1881. Put these items where they
belong, and what would be the result. It
would amount to this. «The report of 1881
should have beeu'03,033.13, and the report
in 1881 $2045.76, a difference of $977.37 in
favor of 1881. '
Next in order the bridges. I see in that
letter, that the town only paid for bridges
including the new bridge at Five Mile River,
$6651.71. Now the writer must have known
‘ that statement was false when {he put those
figures there, because the town paid iu,1881
99891.00, 2. ulIIereucc of $2039.85... The
town paid $840.85 on South Norwalk draw
bridge, bill contracted in' 1880, and should
have been in the report of 1880. The town
paid in 1880 $8,867.25 interest, and in 1881
$12,447.35, a difference of $1580.15. These
are only a part of the items that I could
mention, but owing to want of time and
space I must close. ,
Yours most respectfully,

saw no reason in such a promise, and he cou- '

A very popular and well-known member of our
police force, who has performed duty twelve
years at the Union B. It. Depot on Exchange
Place in Providence. B. 1.. gives his unsolicited
testimony. Hear him :
3-1 have been dreadfully troubled with disease of
the Kidneys and Liver during the past six months;
at times I was so severely afflicted that I was an-
able to stand on my feet, as my feet and lower
Darts ofmy legs were very badly swollen ;- my
urinary organs were in a dreadful condition, my
blood was in a wretched state, and it had become
so impoverished and circulated so poorly thug
my hands and test would be cold and numb and
nights, but was so distressed all oyer that 1 could
not lie still in bed, but would keep turninz and“
rolling from one side to the other all night,so that
I would feel more tired and exhausted in the
morning than when I went to bed. My condition
became so serious that I was obliged to stop work
and for thirty days I was unable to be on duty. I
consulted the best doctors, and tried the numer-
ous medeciues and so called cures, but rapidly
grew worse, and was in a and condition every way
whcnn long-time valued friend of mine, promi-
nent In this city in a large express company,
urged me to try lfuut’s Remedy, as he had known
of wonderful cures effected by it. Upon his re -
rescutatlon I obtained two bottles of the Berna y
and commenced taking it as directed. and greatl
to my surprise in loss than twenty-four hours
commenced to feel relieved. I was in an awful
condition when I began to take the Remedy, and
had noIfaith in it; therefore, when Ilound almost
lmmcdlate relief, even in one day’s use of it, my
heart was made glad. and I assure you I contin-
ued to take the Remedy and to improve constant.
ly from day to day. I tookit with Inc on my trl
to Mulue, for I was bound to have lt With me a l
the time, and the result is that I improved speed-
lly'illl the time I was away; and ever since In
arrivalhomc, which was several weeks ago.
”have been on duty every day. I feel first-rate,
and the swelling: of hand, feet and legs have dis-
apgearcd and the terrible back-ache which used
to other me more than all the rest, troubles m e
no more, and Isleep splendidly nights. and surely
have .very excellent and forcib c reasons for
speaking In praise of Hunts Remedy, for it has
made a new- man of me. I don’t know what I
should have done without Hunt’s Remedy, It is
the best mcdccinc that I ever took, and I vcr
gladly recommend it to all who are afilicted Wlt
Kidney or Liver disease, or diseases of the url—
nary organs.
Respectfully,
ISAAC W. FAIRBRO'I‘IIER.”
