TASTELESS
MEDICINES.
A prominent New York physician lately
complaintd to DL'NDAS DICI1 & CO.,
about their Sandalwood Oil Capsules
stating that Bouietimes they cured niiracu
lously, but that a patient of his hod taken
them without effect. On being informed
that several imitations were sold, he in
quired and found his patient had not bceu
takma LUK1AS DICK. & CU'S.
What happened tj this physician may
have happened to others, and DUNDAS
DICK & CO., take this method of protect'
ing phyticiant druggutt and ihemielvet, and
preventing Oil of Sandalwood from com
lug into disrepute.
PHYSICIANS who once prescribe the
Cospuslea will continue to do so, for they
contain the pure Oil in the best and cheap
est torm
DUNDAS DICK & CO., use more Oil or
SAndallwood than all the Wholesale and
Retail Druggists aud Perfumers in the
United States combined, and this is th
sole reason why the pure Oil is sold
cheaper in their Capsules than in any
other form-
OIL OF SANDALWOOD is fast supered
ing eveiy other remedy, sixty Capsules
only being required to insure a sate and
certain cure in six or eight days. From no
other medicine can this result be had.
DUNDAS DICK & CO'S SOFT CAPSU,
LES solve the problem, long considered by
eminent physicians, so how to avoid the
nausea and disgust experienced in swal
lowing, whiob are well known to detract
from, if not destroy, the good effects of
many valuable remedies.
Soft Capsules are put up intin-foil and
neat boxes, thirty in each, and are the only
Capsules persoribed by physicians.

Company S. (Eldgway BifUs.)
As we noticed in another column
this company attended the annual
parade at Erio last week. Col. C W
Lytle of the Seventeenth Regiment)
took a great interest in Company II.
and Major General Huidekoper re
marked that for a new company we did
splendidly and be was conbdent we
would get our appropriation; viz; one
hundred dollars for armory rent and
four hundred dollars for the use ol the
company. Every member of the com
pany, with a few exceptions, seemed de
termined to make a good appearance;
guns and cartridge boxes were well
cleaned, boots blacked, and clothes
brushed, and we write it with commen
dable pride when we say that company
II, is destined to be one of the best
drilled compan ies iu the State
The history of the company U one of
struggle, from the beginning, and many
of our citizens instead of helping the
enterprise along, only stood by with
buckets of water and dashed it on
whenever they had the opportunity
and many sneeringly remarked that
"such a company of boys will never
pass inspection," but the "boys" did
pass, and to the "boys" belong the honor
But success is akin to popularity, and
we notice, with deep pleasure, a dffereut
turn in general publio sentiment regard
ing the company, and the tide is all in
its favor. The commendations and
words of encouragement we received at
Erie, from Col. Lytic, (who, by the way
is a gentleman end as pcrfeot an officer
as ever rode a horse or commanded a
regiment,) should inspire each mem
ber of company H, to do Lis level best
to make himself a perfect soldier. In
oonclusioa we must say that to Capt
Fred. Sohoening belongs the credit of
making the company what it is, for
without his untiring industry and devo
tion the organization could not nave
survived. We sav this without dispara
gement to any other officer or member
but onlv to eive the most honor to
whom the most honor is due.
CAMP HARTEANFT.
ANNUAL INSPECTION OF THE
SEVENTH DIVISION AT ERIE.
The Seventh Division, composed of
the 15th and 17th regiments of Pennsyl
vania, Nation Guards, had been ordered
to encamp for inspection and roview at
Massassauga Point on the), 1st of Sep
tember. Company H (Ridgway Rifles)
of the seventeenth had been busily
preparing for the great occassion and
through the untiring diligence of Capt.
Schoening and First Lieutenant Bailey,
the company, despite the cl amorings of
those, whose wish that the projeetjmight
fall through was father to the thought,
finally equipped and drilled ready for
the occasion. Last Wednesday after
noon Company II wis marched to the
depot to the inspiring strains of a fif'o
and drum; the train was an hour and
forty minutes behind, which time was
improved by the boys in drilling and
wishing the train would come. At a few
minutes after four o'clock,the iron hors9
with a snort and a bound, appeared on
the scene, and the boys filed into the car
set apart for them on the stde track and
were quickly attuched to tho train, and
mid the waving of hats and handker-
chiefs ond the cheerine of men thev
sped around the curve and were Boon
out of sight and on their way to camp.
Nothing of note transpired on the
way, until we reached Uorry where
Company F. of Clarion County were io
waiting to take tht. train for the distant
camping ground.
In the course of time we were landed
in Erie where we found Major Sweeney
in waiting at ihejelevator dock; baggage
and men were Boon unloaded and we all
supposed that we would soon bo sailing
down the bay toward our destined goal,
but we were doomed to wait two long

atnotrjeing anowea to ias.e our nag-
gage for us, made the scene still moro
interesting. At last the wait ended as

wharf and shipped Company 11. and F
We were soou at the "head," aud
mngry as a pack of wolves. Sand
witches and ginger snaps soon put an
end to the cravings of hunger when
we marched along a sandy road up a
steep hill to camp Uartranft. The still
ness of uiglit reigned over the entire
camp, and not a sound wis neara save
the lively tune of the cricket and the
steady tramp of the sentinel, as he
walked his lonesome beat, the snoring

The next day a strong guard was placed
over the path to the water. Hot break

the necessary pass and were soon on
their way to see the city.

Saturday was the great day of the
encampment. It was cool and breezy
throughout threating in the morning,
but bright in the afternoon, and alto-
getuer a moaei aay tor tne purpose.
The crowds which visited tho grounds
were literally immense. The Bay was
not more thronged with craft of all
sorts than the road with vehicles of
every variety.
