Edit2r Fayette County Herald;
Frequent interrogations having
been made as to the amount OF
funds in the Treasury of Fayette
Co., Ohio, which may be applied to
the erection Of a new County In
firmary, if the policy of erecting one
shall be approved by the people, l
deem it proper to state that the ex-
act amount of building funds which
is now in the Treasury and which
may be applied to said purpose, is
Eleven Thousand Nine Hundred
and Sixty-one and thirty-two one
hundredth Dollars ($11,961 32);
that in addition to said amount there
will arise from the June collection
of taxes about Two Thousand Five
Hundred dollars, which will be pla-
2ed to said building fund when the
distribution of taxes shall be made
next August.

REsoRTING TO Tricks. You will
see men head an advertisement with

PRINTERS ETIQUETTE. Printers
are a queer set Of beings, and are
not altogether innocent of possess
ing irritable sensibilities like other
folks. They regard it as mon
strous breach of good manners for
anybody, when they come into a
Printing Office, to look over and
read the copy on their cases, or to
read the matter in type, set up for
their next issue. 1t disturbs their
and sometimes causes a
vast amount Of mental profanity.
