Thero Is nlways uioro or less suspicion
ntt.ichcd to ntiything that is offered freo but
sometimes a man so overflows witli generosity
that ho cannot rest until his discovery ii
known to tho world, In order that his follow
men may profit hy what ho lias discovered.
It Is upon this principal that a resident o(
Kalamazoo, Mich., desires to send free to
mankind a prescription which will euro them
of any form of nervous debility ; relieves
them of all tho doubt and uncertainty which
such men arc peculiarly llablo to and restores
tho organs to natural size and vigor. As it
costs uotliing to try tho experiment it would
seem that any man, sufl'eriiig vtlth the
nervous troubles that usually nttnek men
who never stopped to realize what might ho
the final result, ought te bo deeply Interested
In a remedy which will rostore them to
health, strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence of untold
misery. As tlio remedy In question was the
result of many years resoarch as to what
combination would bo peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength tlicy need, It
would seem that all men sullcrlng with any
form of ncrvntis weakness ought to writo for
sueli a remedy at onre. A request to II. U.

nour Guruce. They wont to Gurneo oarly j evidence us to where Information camo from.
Sunday morning nnd boarded tho train.
Sinco thou nothing has beon seon or hoard
of them, so far us can bo ascertained,
'i'hoii bodlos wero not found, nnd their
absoiico can only bo accounted for by tho
surmlso that they must havo burned up
in tho wreck. The railroad authorities say
that they havo rocolvod indefinite in
quiries about tho Tlbbs family, but know
nothing of them.
There was llttlo of tho debris at tho
scono of tho wreck yostorday. Mr. Dry
son, who was listed among tho fatally In
jured, is now numbered umoiig tho dead.
Ho llvod for twonty-four hours In groat
iigony. Ho was frightfully mangled and
burned. Whou tho train mado its awful
plunge Mr. Hrysou did not nt first go
to tho bottom. Ho was caught betwoon
tho limbs of a tree, about twonty-llvo feet
above the river bed. The flames from tho
burning curs below brought him to n con
sclousnnss of his perilous position. Ho
managed to oxtricnto himself, and loll
bleeding und mangled to tho river bottom
Into two foot of water. Ho then pulled
himself underneath a largo rock and, pro
tected to sumo oxtent by tho running
water, ho escaped tho Uamos, but was not
able long to survive his Injuries.
Several persons from Illocktoti, who
woro oarly on tho scene of tho wreck, still
doclnro that twouty-soven bodlos wero
tuken out of the river, and that tho rail
road authorities are still mistaken In tho
uunibor killed, The Blockton pooplo seem
to think that several bodies were taken
nwny by friends before the relief train loft
on Its return trip with tho deud und
wounded. The railroad ulliclals, however,
are firm In this statement, that only
twenty-one corpses wero rocovorod. They
say all reports to tho contrary aro wild
rumors.
The fact still remains, howover, that It
Is Impossible to know just how many pas
sengers woro on the train, nnd who thoy
wero or wlioro thoy wore going.
The prescription Is sent frco and although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, thcro is no doubt
about tho offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send to Mr. Olds so that ho may know
how you camo to wiite hlin. 12-28-78t

Tours to Florida.
No district iu America presents, during the I
Winter season, so many varied attractions as
the State of Florida. ISesidcs its delightful
climate, which to one escaping from the cold
and unhealtlifiil changes of the North teems
almost ethereal, it is pre-eminently a land of
sport and pleasure, Along its olevrn hundred
miles of salt-water coast and in its twelve
hundred fresb-water lakes are fish of almost
every conceivable variety, from the migra
tory tribes common to Noitheru waters to the
tarpon, pompano, and others of a more
tropical character. Nowhere lu all our broad
land can the angler find a greater variety of
game or better sport.
Here also the most enthusiastic hunter
finds satiety. Deer, turkeys, bears, panthers,
mid wild cats roam at large through the more
sparsely settled regions, while birds of all
kinds may bo found iu abundance through
nut tho State. The more novel sport of al
ligator and manatee hunting may also be in
dulged in by the more advtnturoiis tourist. I
With its matchless climate, its orange
groves, its rivers and lakes, its boating aud
bathing, its fishing and hunting, and its
extensive forests, Florida presents unrivaled
attractions for the valetudinarian, tho lover
of nature, the sportsman and the explorer,
To this attractive state the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company has arranged four personally-conducted
tours during the season of
1807. leaving by special train January 2U,
February 0 and 23. und March 1). Tho fust
tlneo tours will admit of a sojourn of two
