FOR MILCH COWS.

The property this Powder possesses in In
creasing the quantity of Milk in Cows, gives
it an Importance and value which should
place it in the hands of every person keeping

that it will increase the quantity of Milk and
Cream twenty per cent, and make the Butter
firm and sweet. In fattening Cattle, it gives
them an appetite, loosens their hide and
makes them thrive much faster

Lands Located in Ohio, West Virginia and
Pennsylvania.

THE HEPROPERTIES OF THIS COMPA-
i ny consist of 423 acres Of the most desirable
OIL Lands In these States, selected with care and
Judgment by practical men, after prospecting and
examining the most productive regions and locali-
ties. A large part Of it is situated on Dunkard
creek, Green county, Pennsylvania, where, in pro-
portion to developments, the quantity and quality
of the Oil found, is superior to Oil creek, it com
manding higher price in the Pittsburg market
The lands in West Virginia arc located in Mon
ongela and Wetzell counties, and are considered
among the best in the State. -
In Ohio, the Company property is located in Knox
county, where the indications are most favorable,
Oil Of superior character as q lubricator being
found at depth Of $50 feet, adjacent lands and
within few feet Of the Coupanv's property.
The Company are already sinking one we'll, and
have arranged to commence two MORE as soon as the
necessary machinery can be put on the ground.-
THREE WELLS have recently been struck only a
short distance from the property of this Company.
EITHER ONE of which would, in year, nearly re-
pay the entire capital Of the Company, ...-
The officers of this Company, in placing its stock
before the public, are confident that the induce
ments offered are not surpassed by any Company
in the country. The Capital Stock is small for the
amount of valuable Oil territory the Company pos
sess, and the assurance Of a speedy and large re-
turn to the stockholder is almost certain.
Full and detailed information given on applica-
ton to the Sec etary and Treasurer.

'Twas ali u Dream!

The old maid sat in her old arm chair,
with half-closed eyes and pensive air, and
without blush on her maiden face, fell in-i
to old "Murphy's" sweet embrace. She
dreamed that husband, kind and true, her
form to his side so gently drew; while In
accents gentle, clear and slow, he called her
the dearest name below. A fire was kindled
upon the hearth, while the tcakettle sang a
merrier lay than it had whistled for many
day. New light was diffused in the old
maids heart, as she felt her Loneliness de-
part; the table was spread, all clean and
new, and plates, and saucers, and chairs for
two. Here the poet kindly pauses for the
purpose of prolonging the "old critters"
bliss. But to resumed At last, as the
dusky, dim twilight was fast giving place
to the shades of night, she reached her,
arms for sweet embrace, and, alas! alas!
found empty space. AS from her vision OF
bliss she woke aud found that her dream
had perished and broke, she rose and said,
with shuddering sigh: "Oh, would L had
married in days gone by!" '' ' '..''''. 'i'''' .

Rather Thin.

A ludicrous incident occurred at Wood
lawn, on the Bloomingdale road. Jones',
Hotel, OF that place, is ornamented with a
hostler whose fun is as fearless as his face
is ugly. One day in January, while twenty
or thirty fast gentlemen were standing on
the front balcony of the hotel an Individual
rode up the path on the thinnest horse ever
mortal eyes looked upon. Leaping from
the painting steed, the equestrian said, turn
ing to the hostler:
" Here, John, give my horse some water"
"Sir?" said John, with look of aston
ishment. ...... ........,. ...r-, o.

stranger. 1- 't '.t .--

"Yes, you fool, my horser'' said the
stranger, looking savagely at him, and
commenced drawing the lash of his whip
through his hand. .....uimlf -ai9d ej
John walked toward him as though he,
would demand an explanation, and had
taken about six steps when he suddenly
stopped, like one surprised beyond express
sion.
"Bless my soul,p said he, 81 ask your
pardon, sir; but your animal stood on line
with that ere hitchin' post, and didn'tsee
him." ." ~ -'
The owner of the spectral beast tried to
frown, but a roar from the balcony made
him change his mind. ........ '..,.'. ..... ,..

the tiremen alone prevented destructive,

fire is not certainly known, but suspicious
are attached to a certain person. About
half an hour after, another alarm was given,
and the stable of Mr.. Geo. Thompson, re-
siding on Third street, was discovered on
fire. Itwas soon consumed, and cow in
the stable at the time, was burned in q
