Dili, Madams: In reply to your let"
touting what I think of your Remedy
I would say that the sales have been very
air, and io far as I can learn, the Reme
ij hu been very satisfactory, to my cus
toBiri who have used it, especially 80 in
tt case of a little girl of this city, ten
jtin of age, who was troubled for a
Icif time with sores breaking out over
tie face and neck, having the appear
of Scrofula, and which had resisted
tie trail alterative treatment for a long
tiw. She took four bottles of the Bit
ten last Spring, when the sores entirely
disappeared, and un to this time she has
kai no return of them, her skin looking
m icr and clear as anyone s.
Touting that you may receive the sue
i which your Itemedy seems to merit,
I am, very respectfully yours,

The old and popular house of Sol
Bjar& Bros, appears in avery attractive
aivertisement in thig day's issued They
cirry an enormous stock, which is all
bought under very advantageous circnm
stances, and which can, therefore, be sold
at very low figures. It is imDossible for
one to form an estimate of the large
stock they carry, without a personal
inspection. It fills' two large houses
with three large floors in each house, and
this stock is replenished as fast as sales
"
are made.
Monday Might.
The Rentz-Santley Combination will
appear at the Opera House next Monday
evening. They remain here but one eve
ning
Speaking of their appearance in
St. Louis the Globe-Democrat of that
city says :
"Good wine needs no bush," and cer
tainly the Rentz-Santley combination
now at the Comique need no praise, their
peformance speaking so well for itself in
the crowded houses that greet them every
night. ' The first part or minstrel scene
la a departure from the usual style, the
ladies all appearing in magnificent even
ing dresses of different styles and colors,
and with the new scenery at the Comique
for a frame, forms a parterre of beauty
and loveliness very pleasing to the mas-
culine eye. The olio is composed of some
ot tne oen specialists m vue variety pro-
fession. Manchester and Jennings, in
iUClXBUUgB kUU ViAUVCO, BIO CAUCUCUkUUU
have become favorites here already.
Lottie Elliott, in her skipping rope
act, shows great endurance as well as ease
and grace in her performance. The
Etzeltine sisters gave a fine exhibition
of club swinging. -The Parker sisters,
in their song and dances; were good.
Minnie Farrell, in her quick changes, one
of them being done on the stage, chang
ing from full-dress male costume to a
Highland kilt plaid and lull Scotch dress.
The Murphys, in their Irish sketch, give
i i p t:ii
a very laugnaoio peiormance. xui

bis partner, uuciuey. in ineir songs anu
dances and negro comicalities, keep the
audience .in a roar. The Bartlett sisters
rendered some duetts in their usual
excellent manner. Polly Daly, in her
clog and jig dancing, proved herrelf to be
one of the best. Some of the singing io
the first part was of more than ordinary
excellence, that of Miss Rosa Lee de
serving especial mention. The after
piece, a burlesane on Hazel Kirk, wis
one of the best we have seen and was
brimful af fun from beginning to end. A
number of selections from popular comic
operas are introduced and well rendered.
Taken although it is in Us entirety one
of the most finished variety performances
ever given here, a fact that is attested
- . a a 3 a.
by the uniform urge attendance at eyery
performance.

they are lost is gaining ground. The

house five mile north of Genesee, saw a
balloon, and called the attention of h:s
