The most painful cases of rheumatism may bo
relieved by a few applications of Chamberlain's
Pnin Balm; its continued use will cure any case
no matter of how long standing. The record of
this pain relieving medicine is wonderful. It is
equally beneficial for lame back, pain in side,
shoulder lameness, and in all painful affections
requiring an external remedy. A trial will con
vince any person that the above statement is cor
rect. Chamberlain's Pain Balm is sold by 1'. H.

Piles.
Pji.ks are frequently preceded by a
sense ot weurlit in the back, loins ana
lower part of the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys or neighboring organs. -At
times, symptoms of indigestion are
present, liatulencv, uneasiness of the
stomach, etc. A moisture like perspira
tion, producing a verv disagreeable
itching, after getting warm, is a common
attendant. Blind, bleeding and itching
piles yield at once to the application of
Dr. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts
directly upon tho parts aifected, absorbing
the tumors, allaying the intense itching,
and aifoctiirj: a permanent cure. Price
fifty cents. Address the Dr. Bosanko

very good one in the main, written
by General D. H. Hill, the well
known Confederate corps comman

mathematics in Davidson College,
North Carolina, just before the war.
The examples by which he illus
trates his text, while interesting can
not be as highly commended as the
Tihtn of his work. Thoy indicate
the kind of sectional training which i
the 3'outh of this institution re

10,000 pounds of bad pork at 1
cent per pound, and paid so much
per pound to put it through a che
mical process, by which it would
appear sound, and then sold it at an
advanced price, clearing 450 dollars
by the fraud. The price at which
he sold the pork per pound, multi
plied by the cost per pound of the
chemical process, was 3 ceiits. .Re
