Just in what way the profession would be bene- fited by the reunion aside from the mere pleasure of the social feature, isnot easy to determine, however weconcur, and append the Record’s price suggestion. The ‘* bretheren’’ having gener- ally endorsed our suggestion for al reunion of the ink-slngers of the | Sixth district, and several places have been suggested at which to hold the same, we, as the originator ot the idea hereby request Bros. Lingle of the Henry county Demo- erat, Crockett of the Nevada Dem} ocrat, Lewis of the Carthage Ban- ner, and Kennedy of the Springfield Times-Leader to meet us in Car- thage on Monday, February 20, to name the time and place and _ar- range the programme for such re- union.

It is now over ftty years since this medicine was offered as a remedy for Worms, and from that time its reputa- tion has steadily increased until at the present day itis almost universally ac- knowledged throughovt nearly all parts of the world to be the sovereign remedy Children often took pale and sickly fron no other cause than Worms and spasms are most trequentlvy the result of these hidden sappers and miners. Many a hepless child has been laid in the grave when the disease which caused its death has been entirely misunderstood, and when worms have been really the cause; therefore parents especially mothers, who are constantly with their children, can- not be too observing ofthe the first sym- ptoms of worms, tor surely as they exist can they be safely and speedily removed from the most delicate infant, by the timely use of B. Av FAIINESTOCK’S VERMIFUGE. Great Caution must be | used by every purchaser to examine each bottle he buys. The simple name of | Fahnestock is not sufficient, he must look closely and se that the imitials are ‘B.
