SINGLE WAREHOUSE FAN

Three sizes of Single Mills, and three sizes of Double Mills.
Capacity from 150 to 600 bushels per hour.
These justly Celebrated Mills are used in nearly every corner of the civilized world. Even to Tarsus, the birth-place of Saul, one of them was sent Dec., 1881. Hundreds of them go every year to Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, South America, Mexico and Asia, besides thousands of them to all parts of the United States and the territories. The large foreign demand, aside from their popularity at home, would be sufficient guarantee as to the superiority of these mills. They clean and grade all kinds of Grain and Seeds, Rice, Peas, Beans, &c., taking Smut, Cockle, and other foul matter out of grain ; separate Oats from Wheat or Barley; are excellent Chaffers, and in every respect meet the require- ments of the Farmer, Grain Dealer, Seedmen, Distillers, and others needing inills. It pays to buy the best.

Why do you go through life more dead than alive, when you can be re- ved or cured by applying at onee to the celebrated Specialist,
DR. PRIOR, WATER DOCTOR,

There are few men and women but that suffer m some chronic trouble or weakness; those of the female being more abund- t and distressing. In either sex these can be relieved or cured. I have de- ted years to this branch of the analysis of the water or urine.

Distress in the Head which often attends Female Weak- sses-these diseases, most of them, can be relieved and cured; and that ead scourge THE AGUE, which brings weakness and misery to so many, forced to give way quickly to the medicines I use for such cases, and there not an atom of Sulphate Quinine in my celebrated and world renowned GUE SPECIFIC.
Hundreds in this and adjoining States could testify as to the relief or res effected by my medicines, they have doctored for years without experi cing any relief from their troubles. If you are suffering from any of the ove complaints or any disease come at once and see me, and bring a sample Urine or Water.
CONSULTATIONS FREE. occupy the room used by the late renowned Dr. Goeritz, Water Doctor. My medicines are the same as used by him, and Treat all Cases by a Thorough and Scientific Analysis of the Urine or Water. DR. PRIOR, WATER DOCTOR.
