Again and Again,

Our readers may think it strange
that we 80 often urge upon their at
tention medicinal preparation. Al
ready have we, for number Of weeks,
urged the Importance of supply of
Goes Cough Balsam in the house,
ready for immediate use. But our ex-
cuse is the vast amount of sickness,
sorrow and death that are the imme-
date result of sudden coughs, colds
and pulmonary attacks while thou
sands of our children are dying from
Group and lung complaints Tine
and experience have proven that
Goes Cough Balsam is the most spec
dy and reliable preparation ever
known to the world. Like magic it
relieves the irritation Of the throat, re-
moves the stoppages that prevent
breathing in group, and heals all sore
ness of the throat. chest and lungs.
No man should neglect to supply his
family with safe and reliable medi-
cine like Goes Cough Balsam, any
more than he should neglect the sup
ply of their daily bread. 1t costs but
forty cents, and the bottles contain
twice as much as those of any other
remedy at the same cost, wilhelm mer-
it, it is superior to all others. All
drug stores keep it for sale.
Marrying woman for her beauty
is like eating bird for it's singing.

The Collector and Assessorship.

We notice that there is a combined
and almost unanimous movement now
on foot in the Sd Congressional Dis
trict for change in the Offices of Col
lector and Assessor. And the same
movement seems very properly to be
directed towards the appointment of
j. w. Thomas, Esq, of Lansing, to the
Collectorship, and l.. l.. Huntley, of
Floyd county, for the Assessorship.
Certainly, the public sentiment of the
District could not point to better or
more capable men. Mr.. Huntley has
been Treasurer of Floyd county, for
period of six years, serving the coun-
ty in that capacity to the interest and
satisfaction of it's citizens, and Mr.
Thomas is Cashier of the First Ma
tional Bank of Lansing, a gentleman
every way qualified for the important
Office which the people of the District
desire he shall hold. If the wishes of
the people of this Congressional Dis
trict are consulted, these appointments
will be made.-McGregor Ners. 81.

A Case for Compassion.

The condition of Eliza Hatch has
excited the sympathy and compassion
ate regard of very many Of our citi-
zens, and recently petition was nu-
merously signed requesting Judge
Burt to adopt some measures for her
relief-either speedy trial, or if pos
sible her removal to some comfortable
place out of the jail. She is very
much reduced and quite i'll. She now
shows a disposition to partake of food.
but cannot do it. She is confined,
though in a cell, to be sure, with the
worst of men, and Of course their
talk can not but reach her ears.
Besides almost every body believes
her to be innocent-and no persons
are more earnest in their belief than
the community in which she has lived.
The testimony of woman eighty
years of age, in her dotage, who cher
ished dislike of the girl, formed the
ground of her indictment. ..
1t is earnestly hoped that measures
will be taken very soon for her release
from her present unhappy condition.
