Cure of a Bad Breast—The wife of Mrs. Arthur Burn, of
New Orleans, Louisianna, was, after the birth of their last
child. *constant sufferer with a bad breast, there were seve
ral holes in it, and despite of the various remedies tried. her
husband could not get anything to cause it to heal. After
even• other remedy had failed to benefit the sufferer, she
had recourse to Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which, as a
matter of course, quickly caused an improvement in the ap
pearance of the affected parts. and by perseverance with
these tine remedies for a few weeks, -she was completely
cured. This wonderful Ointment will also readily cure all
diseases of the skin.

9 7 000 ACRES of good FARM AND COAL
" i I LAND in Elk bounty, Bensinger
township, Pennsylvania, for sale, giving alarm
of 25 Acres fir $2OO, payable in installments
of S 1 per week. or at the same rate monthly.
Farms of 50, 75, 100, or more acres culjoin
ing in proportion. Each Farm fronts upon a
road thirty feet in,width.
The Soil is a rich litn
pecially adapted to cultivation, as it is neither
hilly nor stony. but gently rolling or fine table
land. Around and through this property
there are already some 20,000 acres under 'cul
tivation, and its fertility has been established
from the .crops produced. Upon this subject
it is easy to be fully satisfied. There is a
ready cash market for prOduce which is much
better than trade. It is the
Cheapest, as land of a similar quality is
selling at much higher prices adjoining, and
especially such as contains caul.
The Coa/. 7 -This in particular is the Coal
District, several veins underlaying the whole
property, and the attention of miners, and
those 'acquainted with coal lands, is specially
called to it. It has the advantage of being the
nearest to the great lake market, with which
it will be connected by the Sunbury and Erie
Railroad now under contract and in course of
completion from Erie to Ridgeway, with de
scending grade the whole way. The soil over
bituminous coal is the best, for instance Eng,
land and other countries. The price per acre
,is trifling for the coal alone. as it will certain
ly, in so favorable a locations within a short
time pay largely. This is important as Sty
immense con; trade will soon open. Four coal
companies have already been started to work
mines in the vicinity: and there are now fifteen
openings around St. Mary's.
The .Timber, Stock holders also receive.—
There is no reservation whatever either of tim
bre or coal. It. is very valuable, and will pay
for a great part-of theland. On account of the
scellence of streams there are-fine opportuni
ties for mills.
For 11, Oh, the location is much recommend
ed by Physicians. The chills and fevers are
unknown, also pairsortaris complaints, being
protrelcd from the north eastlwinds by the Al
leghenies. The water is pure and amongst
the best, the land abounding in fine springs.
_Four Railroads will shortly be completed,
connecting it by a (Uteri conimunication with
New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Erie,
Belfalii, and all the cities on the Lakes. They'
are the Sunbury and Erie, the Allegheny Val
ley, the Pittsburg arid Buffalo, and the Venan-,
go. Energetic exertions are also being made
for the building of the Tyrone and Clearfield,.
which also passes through this property. The
effect of this upon - trade, and general develop
ment, as well as the coal, may be imagined.
The large and flourishing town of St: Mary's
is in the centre of the tract, numbering near
3.000 inhabitants. It has Hotels, good piiblic
schools, saw and grist mills. stores, well stock
ed and - every thing desired. There are 235
half acre lots in the town of St. Mary's, which
'will be sold and the proceeds equally divided
_amongst those who buy farms. Ridgeway. the
county seat, where an extensive business is
done, adjoins the tract on the west. The whole
district is intersected. by ,good turnpike, and
other roads.
This is a rare opportunity offered to those
who wish to farm or have a good investment
for the future. By making proper inquiries, .
and considering the advantages of good soil,
an abundance-of coal, healthfulness of climate s>
Railroad facilities, and its location, a correct'
judgment may be formed of its present advan
tages and ultimate increase.
By writing to' the Ake direCtions will be
given to those who wish to visit the land. A
system 'of excursions will shortly be adopted.
Therels an excellent opening for various
branches Of mechanical business, especially
tanneries. - wheelwrights, axe handle makers,
shoemakers. - carpenters and others.
Farms can be bought by enclosing the first_
- instalments — Ladies can—hold-shares-in-their
own right. Title unquestionably good, and
warrantee deeds given. Address or apply to
