TOWN FINANCES, The Town Treasurer reminded tbe Lake Trus- teea yesterdny of some very nuplesant facts in his report on the fivances of the town. The re- port dates back to tho time that he enterad upon his duties. at which time he found that $31,000 collected on special assessments made in the provious years dating back to 183, had been used for other purposes, and tte tows was theroby indebted to thess funds that eum, to pay which they bad either to re- fund the money or make the im- provements. Duriog the prosent -year the Board have already expended $13,000 of thia year's levy, which lessens their available funds that much. Then again, in settlivg up with the Couuty Treasurer he was painedto find that $132,136.69 of the town levy bus beea forfeited to the Btate, thus depriving the Board of 250,000, of which they expected to Lave thease this year. Another item which was not a all pleasant, was ihat the 6,000 appropristed for the expenses of the’ Water-Works was sbout $3.000 short of the amount neceseary to meot the actual expenses.

Io mocordanco with the time-borored custom, Thanksgiving Day was very geneally observed by the ciizens of this place. Thankegiving eve was celebrated by a hop at the hotel, and, though entirely impromptu and informal, was much en- joyed by those who favored 1t wih their pres- ence. Excellont music frem thecity was pro- vided, to the sound of which 'tae gay party danced till the early hours of Thanksgiving morning. A nnmber were present from neigh- boring:suburbs, among whom wereMr, and Mre, };hl‘{n and Mr. and Mre. Snepard, of Norwood ar At 11 a. m. Thureday, Thanksgiving services wero beld at the Methodist Episcopsl Church. Elder Boring preaching an exceileut sermon euited to the occasion. The great avents of the day, however, were the oumercus fawily ro- unions and the'inevitablé dinuers which are now recoguized as part aod parcels of the day’s ob- servance. Many from abroed visited, upoa 1n- vitation, their friends and relatives here, and w‘er]a entertained In good old-fashioned country style. é The event of the week has been a sad, though not unexpected oue, aud hascast & gloom cver tbe sptire community. Mr. Alonzo Chittendon died of paraiysis early Thursday morning at his residence 1n this village, after a brief iliness, at the age of 71 years. (One by one tbe old setilers fail, like autumo leaves, aud anotber generation takes their vacant place. A good mau has de- parted, but the memory of the trne and noble hife which he lived will be in_this commupity a monument to him more enduring than any cary- ed 1o marble. Mr. Chittendon was born in Fairfield, Herkimer County, N. Y.. and there passed his childbood and youth. He was mar- ried at Litue Falls, N. Y., and afterwards lived for many years at Carthage, in the same Btate, by the older members of which community ha will be remembered as an influential citizen, an hobest msn, and = consistent Christisn. At that place be becawe & member of the Methodist Episcopal, Church, with whicn be has ever since been connected. His Christian profession was 1ut an evitome of his after-life and conduct. He removed to Ilinois in 1355, and has ever since been identified with tho interests of this vicinity, and was one of the founders of the Methodist church in this piace. Mrs. Chitten- don, the loving and faithful wife of neatly half a century, died last February, It was a blow from which hie never recovered. Patient in eufferiug aod rejoicing in hope, he calmly awamted the SUmmoDS to rejoil her beyond the river.

Thirty-fiva came up to look a: real estate, and out of the number thirty-thres lots were purchased. Park Ridgers are at a loss to know why the adjoining suburbs sre so dull. ¥ 1t 18 rumored that the railroad officials have aboaut decided to run a 11:30 o’clock p. m. train for the express accommodation of these suburbs. The train row leaving the city at 10:10 p.m. is to be changed to 11:30, thereby affording the denizens of these towns opportu- nity to attend places of amusement and return home the same night. The increase of popula- tion sad travel demands iy, and the railioad company koow what is for their interest. [f the rumor be true the raioad officials wul have immortalized their names. e QTHER SUBURBS. - LAKE FOREST. Mra. C. B. Farwell gave an elegant party ‘Tuesdsy evecing.

Even Though It Be Small, Save Itand * It Will Surely lncrease. Where to Eeep Savings, and How to In-- vest Money. The perennial tronble ia New York over the savings baoks of that city bas again arisen. This tme it is the People's Savings Bank which a stupid run has pushed into prominence, ita managers haviog been forced to put the ** sixty- day clause™ into operation, and to shut down paying depositora their money for the period in question. -Other eavings banks there seem to be in the'usual disturbed condition somewhat common in tuat city, although of conrse New York has many subetantial savings institations. 8till, the contrast of the sitasiion there’ and in Chicago is pecoliarly gratifsing. Here the say- ings banks are prudently condnoted, upon sn ample capital, and oaly the smaller ones are ever driven to the wall. The savings intrueted to their care are wisely handled ; the interest ac- crnes steadily to the depositcrs’ accousts, and the banks themseives hold & place with the soundest and most admirable of Chitago's inati~ tutions. . i OXNE OF THE VERY DEST of onr oity’s savings banks, and ous, too, which bolds a foremost 1ank with the leadiag banks of its kind soywhere in America, is the Merchants’, Farmere’, and Mechanics’, No.75 Clsrk street. Latablisbed fot several yoars, conservative ia all its dealings, and its affairs supenintended by Alr. Syduey Mvers, one of the most sagacions and practical students of finance in the Wast, it 18 not a matter of eurprise that'thie savings bank has grown in popular favor and prosperity con- tinually. A peculiarly fayorable aud profitable feature of this bank to its patrons are the” INVESTMENT CERTIFICATES which it fssues in suma of 2100 and upwards. These certificates are the resuit of years of etudy, Mr. Myera haviog given the beneit of his long and patiently acquired kuowledge of true financial principles toward perfecting them. They are secured un inproved real eatato. They pay 7 3-10 per cent interest quarterly. They unite-tha two grand desideratums ol investmenis, perfect security with liberal interest. We cangot call to mind any form of current financial investmens which combices more deairable features than these certiticates. Their security, . IMPROVED CHIGAGO REAL ESTATE, is in the hands of = trustee of emineace and the bighest business character. The interest is al- waya forthcoming when due. There are usually funds enough in the haads of the trustee, col- lected from the notes and securities pledged, to redeem tho certificates a¢ sight. When this is uot the case, the owner of the certificate has but to file his request for the required cur- rency and he will receive it as soon as the fonds accrue in - regular order,—alwaya avery brief time. He need not, however, wait atall’ for ready money, for the certificates have A HIGH MARKET VALUE. Like Governmeut bonds, or any other first-class security, they command caeb, and can be sold or ledged for their face value anywhere. Ilhus it is they are of such direct practical servica to the bolder. They afford him an excellent and 1ofallible rate of interest, and at the same time practically allow him to obtain bis original in- vestment whenever he may so desire. These certificates are favorites notonly at home but abroad. ‘They hold & bigh place in the esteem of Eastern financiers. They are credit- able alike to Mr. Myers, their progeuitor, to the excellent savings bank which iasues them, and to Chicago. HAPPY HOMES AT PARE RIDGE. They Can Be flad of ira Brown for 8100 Up to Dec. 7, but Not After That Date. No better opportanity for investment conld be desired than is offered to the laborivg people and persons of small means by Mr. Ira Brown in the purchase of a homestead at the beantifal and rapidly-growing suburb of Park Ridge. This suburb offers the greatest inducements to the Ilaboriug man. 1t fs only thirty minutes’ ride from the city, has the advantage of cheap fare, and iu reached by two dozen or mors trains per day over the Wisconsin Division of the Nortbwestern Railroad. Mr. Brown’s terms (2100 per lot—S15 down and $5 monthly until the balance is paid) are remarkably low. There is not a laboring men in Chicago but could meet the paymeats withont feeling the least inconvenience. The lots are high and bealthy, and cannot be excelled for building purposes. Buot wany are bayiog who do not iu- tend to build immediatcly, knowing tiat toe prica 13 low, and that 1t is sure to go up. Such i8, indeed, the fact, for we hereby announce by authority of Mr. Brown tha:_he will -rawse tos price to $200 on and after Dec. 7. Toall who buy before that time the price will remain at 8100, but after that date 8200 is the least that. will be taken. This is an important aanounce- ment, and should be borne well inmind. It will soon be too Jats. At Evavston, where Mr. Brown sold cheap lots in 1871, the price haa gone up from $100 each to £500 apiece. This will _uo- doubtediy be the case five years hence st Park Ridge. .dr. Brown gives an abstract showing & poufect title and warraoty~deed with every lot. AMr. Brown's warranty ought to be gooa enongh, and is o conmdered by everybedy who is {amil- iar with bis Jong resdence in Obicago, his excel- leot reputation, and his mauy noble acts of charity. Yinter Styles in Gloves. The winter atyle in gloves is as follows: Gants de Swede are not considerad suitable for wiater use, and the fiue soft chevreau glace is only worn for fall dress. There are in Paris gloves made especially for this season. For morning wear the worsted glove called Eashmeers 13 con- venient, warm, and easily drawn off and on; it comes with a8 many as four buttons. For balf drees the Castorine, which is of undressed kid and very strong, is economicil. Thia glove is suitable for wear with rnits of cloth, cachemire, vigogne, natte. eto., as it fs only made in dark shiades, such as dark green, plam, purple, brown, and gray. The gant russs is the full-dress winter glove, worn with the most elegant velvet suits trimmed with fur; they are very warm, though made of handsome tine chevresn. These gloves are lined with eilk or fur, which does not ealarge the hand but protects it, aud keeps the skin white gnd soft in the coldest weather. They are also made in dark colors. The black snd gray Rloves are lined with purple silk, avd are used for ball momining. The green ones are lioed with red and the havane with bius. They are rather expensive, but 8o dursble that they finally prove chesp. For riding and Sravelng the Jeanne d’Arc is suitadle, This glove is of a rather thick and strong kid, with s doublo row of stitchiog, and it has a deep gaunslet, Itis only made in different shades of gray. 5 The St. Elmo is open, and contioues to serve its customers as usual. COMMON SENSE VS. PREJUDICE. By R. V. Przacr, M.D,, of tbs World's Dispensary, ‘Buffalo, N, Y., Author of “The People’s Common Bense Medical Adwmer,” ete., ete. I am aware that thers is & popular, and not al- together unfounded, prejudice against ** patent medicines," owiag to the small amount of merit which many of them possess. The appellsiion « Patent Medicine " does not apply to my reme- dies, a8 no patent has ever been asked for or ob- tained upon them, nor have they been urzed apen th the public as wcure-alls.” They are sim- ply some fayorite proscriptions, which, io a very extansive practice, have proved theiwr superior remedial virtuos in the care of the diseases for which they are recommended. Every practicing physician bas bis favorite remedies, which he oftenest recommends or uses, because he has the greatest confidence in thelr virtues. The patient does not know their composition. Even rescriptionsare usnally written in s Ianguage un- intelligible to any but the druggist, As much se- crecy is employed a4 in the preparation of pro- priotary medicines. Does the fact that anar- ticle is prepared by & process known onty to the manafactarer render that article less valuable? How many physicians know the elementary com- position of the remedies which they employ, some of which have never been analyzed? Few practitioners-know how Morphine, Quinine, Po- dophyllin, Leptandrin, Pepein, or Chloroform, are made, or how pauseous drugs are trans- formed into palatable. elixirs; yec they do not hesmitate to employ them. Is it not inconsistent to0 use a prescription, the composition of whish is unknows to s, and discard another prepara. tion simply because it is sccom; d by & prioted statement of its properties with dires tions for ita use ? i Some persons, while admitting that my medis cipes are good pharmaceutical compouads, ob- ject to them on the grouod that they are loa often used with insufficient judgment. I pro- Pose to obviate this difficulty by enlightening the people as to the structare and functions of their bodies, the canses, the character, and symp- toms of disease, and by indicating the propex sod judicions employment of mj medicines, to- getker with such auxiliary treatment as may be necessary. Such ia one of the desigus of the People's Medical Adriser, 40,000 copies ot which have already been published, and are sold at the exceedingly low prics of 1.50, sad sent (post-paid) to any address within tha United States and Canada. s If you would patronize medicines, scientificals 1y prepared, use my Family Medicines.
