PI0IUEE8QUE BLOOMSBURG.
For several months past there
has been in course of preparation a
book which is intended to show the j
beauties of our town, and which I
will make a handsome souvenir of
Bloomsburg. It is printed on heavy
enameled paper, ana contains sev
cnty half-tone cuts of good size,
including pictures of the Court I
House, Town Hall, High School,
Normal School, Water Works, ;
County Prison, cuurcnes, resi
dences, Factories. Street Views,
vr-iri-Pt Srmare. Business Blocks,
Fair Grounds, and many other I
views. It nas Deen compuuu mm
prepared at considerable labor and
expense, believing that the book
will be sufficiently appreciated so
that the publication will not prove
a financial loss, at least. Many
other towns have similar books, and
this work has been undertaken in
order that Bloomsburg may not be
behind other places.
The book is bound in two styles,
one being a stiff cover ot sillc ciom,
wtorpH in pold leaf, price $1.00.
The other is a card board cover,

You can do the same.
It may or may not be caused

The way, to cure a disease
