RICHARD CRAIG. Sept. 30-4t. A Noted Minstrel. M. T. Skiff, formerly business manager for W. J. Scanlan, the Irish Comedian, suffered with rheumatism for years without re lief until he brought a bottle of Drummond 's Lightning Remedy. Two bottles made a well man of him. There are a thousand reme dies for rheumatism, but none have received the unsolicited tes timonials from prominent people as showvn by Drummond 's Light ning Remedy. Ask your druggist for it, or send to the Drummond Medicine Co., 48-50 Maiden Lane, New York. Agents wanted. WVe have received from the New ry Mill a sample of as fine cloth, as we haveiseen made from Pickens cot ton. , This shows we can and will manufacture as good goods from our own production as anywherer else. It is not necessary to send to Lowell for your fine texture of goods as formerly, "AsPy Fort sAp atouu.," That's a good maxim, but it will not work as a rule in the p~urchase of a remedy for Rheumatism. Any of the cheap nostrums, will not effect a cure-in fact none of them will. Don't trifle with life and prolong agony, Get Dr. Drummond 's Lightning Remedy, andl a sp)edy cure is certain. One bottle is worth a hundrod of any thing else, arnd for that reason it is the cheapest wvhen a cure is waIntedl. Of druggists, or sent to any ad dross by express.
