ACRES OF
Willi MUlli LAIS
111 1 racts of 40 acres and Upwards, on Long
Credits and at Low Rates of interest.
fPHESE lands were granted by the Govern-
JL ment to aid in the construction of this road,
and are among the richest and most fertile in
the world. They extend from North East and
North West, through the middle of the State,
to the extreme South, and include every variety
of climate and productions found between those
parallels of latitude. The Northern portion is
chiefly prairie, interspersed with fine groves,
and in the middle and Southern sections timber
predominates, alternating with beautiful prai
ries and openings.
The climate is more healthy, mild and equa
ble, than any other part of the country—the air
is pure and bracing, while living streams and
springs of excellent water about d.
Bituminous Coal is extensively mined, and
supplies a cheap and desirable fuel, being fur
nished at many points at §2 to $4 per tori—and
wood can be had at the same rate per cord.
Building Stone of an excellent Quality also
abounds, which can be procured for little more
than the expense of transportation.
The great fertility of these lands, which are
a black rich mould from two to five feet deep,
and gently rolling—theircontiguity to this road,
by which every facility is furnished for travel
and transportation, to the principal markets
North, South, East, West, and the economy
with which they can be cultivated, render them
the most valuable investment that can be found,
and present the most favorable opportunity for
persons of industrious habits and small means
to acquire a comfortable independence in a few
years.
Chicago is now the greatest grain market in
the world, and the facility and economy with
which the products of these lands can be trans
ported to that market make them much more
profitable, at the prices asked, than those more
remote at government rates, as the cost of
transportation is a perpetual tax on the latter,
which must be borne by the producer in the re
duced price he receives for his grain, &c.
The Title is Perfect, and when the final pay
ments arc made, Deeds are executed by the
Trustees appointed by the State, and in whom
the title is vested, to the purchasers, which con
vey to them absolute titles in Fee Simple, free
and clear of every incumbrance, lien or mort
gage.
The Prices are from $6 to $3O: Intercston-
Iy 3 per cent.
Twenty per cent, trill he deducted from the credit
price for Cash.
Those who purchase on lonp credit give notes
payable in 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 years after date, and
are required to improve one-tenth annually for
five years, so as to have one-half the land under
cultivation at the end of that time. Competent
Surveyors will accompany those who wish to
examine these lands, free of charge, and aid
them in making selections. The lands remain
ing unsold arc as rich and valuable as those
which have been disposed of.
SECTIONAL MAPS will be sent to any one
who will enclose fifty cents in Postage Stamps,
and llooks or Pamphlets containing numerous
iostances of successful farming, signed by re
spectable and well known farmers living in the
neighborhood of the Railroad Lands throughout
the State—also the cost of fencing, price of
cattle, expense of harvesting, threshing,
or any other information, will be cheerfully
given on application, either personally or by |
letter, in English, French, or German, address-

Dr. 11 AEt>M an trents Consumption, Brow hi'is, l.ar> ng
tis, Asthma, and all diseases of the Throat liv MEDICA
TED INHALATION .
Tile great point in the treatment of all human maladies
is to get at the disease in a direct manner. AIL inc .hemes
are estimated hy their action upon llieorgan requiring
relief. This is the important fact tip.,n wh.rh Inhalation
is based If the stomach is diseased, wo lake medicine
directly into the stomach. If the longs ace diseased.
breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into litem.
The reason why Consumption and diseases of the Lungs
have heretofore resisted all treatment, ha, been because
i| ey were not approached in a direct manner by tm-dieine.
They were intended to bp local, and yet they were so ad
ministered that they could only act constitutionally, ex
pending ih. ir immediate action uppn the stomach, whilst
the foul ulcers within the Lungs were unmolested. In
halation brings the medicine into direct contact wi.li the
disease, without the disadvantage of any violent action.
Its application is so simple that it may be employed by
the youngest infant or feeblest invalid. It does not de
range the stomach, or interfere in Ihe least with the
strength, comfort or business of tin: patient.
a>No charge for consultation.
OTHF.R JJ IS EASES TREATED.
In relation to the following diseases, either when roni
plicated with Lung As'r;wns, or existing alone, I also

"NO SUCH WORD AS FAIL,"

Circular to the Sick.
TIME first hospital surgeons and medical publicises oi
-*- Europe admit unparalleled anti inflammatory and
healing properties of this Ointment ; goyernmetits sanc
tion its use in their naval and military services ; and the
masses in this country and throughout the world repose
the ultaugt confidence in its curative properties It pen
etrates the sources of inflammation ami corruption whu li
underlie the external evidences of disease, and neutral
ise: the fiery elements which Feed and exasperate the
malady.
Rheumatism, Scrofula, Erysipelas*
These are among the most terrible ami agonizing di
seases of the muscles, the fleshy fibre and the skin ; yet
in their worst forms, and when seemingly incurable, they
invariably disappear under a persevering application of
tliis- soothing) healing antidote to pain and inflammation.
Salt Rheum, Fever Sores, Stiff Joints.
In cases of Salt Rheum, where medical waters, lotions,
and every recipe of the pharmacopeia have proved use
less, the Ointment will dhcompli.sh a thorough cure, fe
ver Sores heal ({iiickly under its influence, and its relax
ing effect upon contracted sinews is truly wonderful.
Discharging Fleers.
A most remarkable and Uappv change is produced in
the ap|ieiranre of malignant ulcers after a few applica
tions of this Ointment. The surrounding r ditess van
ishes. ami granules of healthy flesh begin to take the
place of the discharged mailer. This process goes on
more or less rapidly until the orifice is tilled up with sound
materiidftuid the ulcer radically cured.
A Word to KothA-s.
The young are most fiei|tieiit sufferers fgpm external
injuries, and therefore every mother should have this
healing preparation constantly al hand. It is an absoluto
specitic for sore breasts, and quickly removes the encrus
ted sores which sometimes disfigure tlie beads and faces
of children.
Significant Facts.
This Ointment is universally used on board the Allan
tic and Pacific whaling fleet as a cure for scorbutic affec
lions, and as the best possible remedy for wounds ami
bruises. Large supplies of it have recently been ordered
by the Sultan of Turkey for hospital purposes.
Both the Ointment and Pitts should fyc used in
the following Cases:
Bunions Lumbago Sore Legs Scalds
Burns Mercurial Er-Sore lireasts Swel'd Glands
