An Illustration of Advertising.

One dnv. some wears ago. in Barnum's Museum.
New York. in the afternoon, Just preceding the
exhibition in the grand lecture room, when thou.
sands of people of all ages and nationalities
throng the building. the great Snowman noticed
that MIR. A., well known as one of the
wealthiest men in America, was present, and
that he appeared To be anXiously in search of
some one whom he could not find. As he was IL
frequent visitor ut the Museum, no particular
attention was given To the fact. Some time after,
however, Mr.. Barnum again noticed him in an
other part of the Museum, forcing his way
through the crowd and still evidently pursuing
his yaln searches. With that spirit Of accommo-
dation 80 characteristic Of the man. Mr.. Baruum
approached him to offer any assistance in his
power, when Mr.. Ar petulantly accOstei
him
Mr.. Barnum, l am discouraged. | have

scum through seven stories from cellar 10 attic.

tell me why II i ~ many people come here ~
There's nothing more easily accounted for

thing worth seeing, and then make it known that

SUCH goal Ihbllr. but now, 70 convince YOU
that y0u are entirely mistaken, / will do Just a

and then You may he induced to change your

Thus saying, Barnum stepped to the door of
the lecture room, closely followed by Mr.. Ar.
In front was a sea Of uprrned faces anxiously
awaiting the rising Of the curtain and the com
ncnccmcnt of the play. While Mr.. Ar
wondering in what way advertising could be
lone 70 benefit him, Or how any one could dis
over his friend in such an immense throng,
iarnUm stepped upon & seat and said
" l. Mr.. Il. # Boston, present? Ifhe

In a moment a man arose III the audience, and
,Ommenccd making his way towards the door.
" Now, said Barnun, - you have spent over

OBITUARY,-Andrew Long died on
the Sd inst, uthis residence, In jamestown Ad-
dition to the town of Jackson Mr. Long was
son of Elias and Barbara Long. He was born
in Ross county, Ohio, July "a, 1910, and his
father removed to jackson when he was a small
boy, and he continued to reside here until his
death.
On the list day of September, 1881, when
little over twenE-one years of age, Mr.. Long
was married to Miss Eliza james, youngest
daughter of the late Col. John james, one of
the pioneers of Jackson, They lived very hap
PLY toge ther and raised family of three sons
and one daughter. Mrs Long survives her hus-
band.
When about seventeen years of age, Mr.. Long
became a member of the NJ E. Church. and
continued in full fellowship unit his death. He
was one of thepillars Of the church, and nearl,
oil his life he held Official position therein.
The writer of this knew Mr.. Long since the
year 1928. When O small boy, we remember
seeing him In his fathers store. When we
came to jackson 10 reside, In January, 1885, we
became quite intimately acquainted with him.
Since that time we have had many business
transactions with him, and we always found
him to be u man Of truth, honesty and integrity.
He was a careful, prudent man, and would make
as good bargain as he could but then he
would stand up strictly to his word. He had
his enemies. He was outspoken and frank :.
There was no deceit about him. What he
thought, he said, and this sometimes made him
enemies. lie was always ON the side of the
right. He was an esFRest friend to freedom,
temperance, education anu religion. ( We al
ways knew where TO Hnd him on these ques
lions. When nearly every prominent man in
Jac kson became discouraged upon the subject
of temPerance, and faltered this fearless man
was always true, and we could count upon him,
under all circumstances.
Mr.. Long will be missed in the family, in the
church, and In this community.
Perhaps some Of the friends may desire to
publish notice more in detail, and therefore we
will not extend this notice further.

How MOstetter's Bitters cure Dys.


tTHE WHOLE STORY IN A NUTSHELL. -
The Office of the stomach is to convert the
food into creOm-like semi fluid called CmYMF.
This is effected partly by the action of solvent.
called the gastric juice. which exades from the
coating ofthe stomach, and partly by mcchan-
ical movement Of that organ. which chuns, as
itwefe, the 'dissolving allment. The CnTArR
passes nom the stomach into the duoden um, or
entrance to the bowels, where 1t ID subjected to
the action of the bile and the nutritious portion
ofit.converted into fluid called Chyle, which
eventually becc mes blood --
Now, Il Is evident that ifthe great solvent, the
gastric juice, is not prsdDced in sufficient guam
tity, or of the mechanical action of the stomach
is not sufc ienly brisk. the first process Of d.
geStiOR will be but imperfectly performed. It is
also clear that II the liver, which plays such an
important part In changing the nourishing por
tion Of the ehyme into the material of the blood,
is congested, or in any unnatural condition, the
second process will not be thoroughly accom-
plished. The result Of the too faiises is dy,pep-
Sd, Complicated with biiioasness
Tie mode in which HOSTETTER's BITTERS
operate in such cases is this they inygoratc the
cellular membrane of the stomach, which en-
wolves the gastric juice, thereby n suring an
ample shfieiency of the fluid to completely dis
solve the food. They also act upon the nerves
of the stomach, causing an acceleratiOn Of the
mechanical movement necessary TO reduce the
food to a homogeneous mass. They also act
specifically upon the liver, strengthening it,and
50 enabling 1t to produce an ample and regular
supply Of bile. for the purpose Of converting the
nutritious PARTICLES Of the Chime into Gayle and
promote the pas sage through the bowels Of the
useless debris "a e.
Ip this way, HoSTETTER's BITTERs cure

is plain, simple, philosophical, and tTus.-n4 IN
