HOG CHOLER a
3 Il COMPOUND.


win prevent the appearance of Cholera,
and, if promptly given, when the disease
first makes its appearance, will lnfallibly
cure in every case and Of those that have
been affected for weeks, and are far gone
four out of five will be cured III this medi-
cine IS given according to directions. Il
requires one dose day as a cure, or one a
week as a preventative. 1t will pay well
to feed it to make hogs thrive, besides in
suring the owner against any loss from
Hog Cholera. No farmer should be with
out it. L. G. COFFMAN d VIM. BUR
NETT, have purchased the right of use
and sale Of the above compound in Fayette
county, Ohio. Having tried the above
medicine on our own hogs, which were af-
iocted with the Cholera, effeeting com,
plete cure, we are perfectly satisfied that it
Is complete remedy for this disease. Our
hogs are now well, We feel no hesitation
In recommending this medicine to our
friends and neighbors, as a complete pre-
ventative and cure for Cholera. We regard
this medicine as q perfect cleanser Of the
hog system, cleansing them Of worms and
any disease that hogs in this country are
subject to. The Compound is sold by DR.,
HARLOW, in Washington, Ohio.

CHILDREN'S CORNER.
Doing as You Please.

Two boys were busy invone cor

we said one of them.
"Your father will have a word-to
say about that, Dick said Benny,
interrupting him.
II can do what / please with my
money, cried Dick proudly. 1T is
my money"
II not do know as to that, said
Benny.
II can, and SHALL cried Dick,
who was a positive little fellow
Benny, his little play fellow, still
looked doubtful. Hf--
Father" asked Dick, marching
up to the woodpile where his father
was at work, "is not my money my
own ?"
"Why, yes, I suppose so," said
Mr. James.
"And can I not buy what !
please with it?"
"That depends upon what you
please to buy" said his father.
~ should think" said Dick, 'that
II the money is my own, | could
spend it as as / had a mind to-"
"No,' said his father "that does
not follow" ...s.
~ thought everybody could do
as they pleased with their own
things" said Dick
"Did you?" said his father
"Whosc jacket have you got on P
Is it Benny's?"
mo, sir, it is my own"
care you sure, Dick ?" asked his
father. Dick thought it was an odd
question for his father to ask. OF
course it was his own jacket.
ayes, sir, it u.s." cried Dick laugh
Ing.
''Havo you any right to 60 and
sell it 2" asked Mr.. James.
mo, sir l should think not"
said Dick.
"or give itaway 7 or burn it up ?"
asked his father.
mo, sir, l should think not an
swered Dick.
"You see, then,' said his father,
"that people cannot always do as
they please with their own things
"Well, that is different" said
Dick.
"No," said his father, ''it is the
same thing Nobody can do what
they please with their property
There are bounds and limits to be
respected. Children, in using their
clothes, toys, money, or any of
thelrproperty, are always restricted
to such a care of them as their par
rents approve. Your money, like
your coat, cap, shoes, books, sled is
yours-yours to use and enjoy, but
using and enjoying them under the
direction Of your parents. Do you
see, Dick"
II do not know but / do" said
Dick, not very cordially But men
can do what they please with their
money"
NO. said Mr.. James, "men are
under restraints made by the laws
OF the land You know, We cannot
buy liquor at any Of the stores in
our village. Mr. Webbcr, you re
collect, was arrested on suspicion
that he set fire to his own house."
~ remember" said Dick,
A man came into the gate to
see Mr.. James, and that put stop
to the conversation, and the boys
went back to their play,
1T is q new idea to me that peo-
pie cannot do as they please with
what belongs to them,' cried Dick,
yet you see they can't" said
Benny.

Allen, shook hands with him and kissed
him on the right cheek. Laikin felt very
i'll, tottered to his place with a sickly
smile, paid no attention to his comrades
and tainted dead away when the rope was
applied to his neck. He fell against
Gould, but was lifted back to his station
by Calcraft's assistant. They all repeated
the prayers after the priests while the
caps and nooses were being adjusted, and
when poor Larkin's voice was hushed
Gould's could be heard saying steadily,
+" Jesus, have mercy upon u.s. A mo-
ment and the priests and jaiors moved
away and the drop fell. Allen died easily;
Gould struggled few minutes Larkin
aroused from his faint by the fall, was in
torture longest. At nine o'clock the bod
les were cut down and life pronounced ex-
tinct. There was no demonstration on the
part of the populace except koarse mur-
mur of disappointment when the fog shut
out the gallows from their view, but some
say they hearl muttered expressions Of
sympathy among the crowd. So died the
three Fenians who rescued Kelley and
Deazy, and tonight all England is watch
ing fearfully lest in some of their populoas
towns attempts should be made to avenge
them.

New METHOD OF R'PENING VINE
M. Pasteur (whose researches on sponta-
neous generation were discussed in our
last number), at the instigation of the En-
peror Napoleon, has investigated the mat
ter Of heating wines in water baths, and
be finds that it gives them all the qualities
derived from age-in fact it ripens them,
gives them age, and destroys those germs
of parasitic vegetation which lead to the
destruction of the finer qualities of light
wines and prevents their travelling. The
heating of wine is as old as the time Of
Plny, as it has long been the custom TO
boil the wine in Italy and Greece, but no
one has investigated the question scientifi-
cally until the French servant undertook
the inquiry. He says there is peculiar
parasitic growth which attacks all wines
of low alcoholic strength. After much
experimenting he found that by heating
wine in bottle TO 130 degrees, Fahren-
heit these germs were destroyed in cou-
pie of hours, and were not liable to be
affected again. What is more to the pur-
pose, bottles half filled and covered with
the parasitic mould so heated we're rem
dered sound and god. In short, he sfiirms
that he has cured the tendency to grow
sick and turn sour of the light wines of
France, and that wines so treated may be
, left exposed TO the air without taking any
damage. The commissioners appointed
TO test his experiments gave decision
highly in favor of his process. II time
