Diseases arising from indiscretion have been
treated with Balsam oopaiba and Mercury, un
Gil the stomaohs of patients using them became
so nAussatsd and weakened that il Was hard to
decide which was the worst complaint, the dis
stomach or the original disease. AT
length tho samaritGn's Gift made its advent, and
an entirely new system Of cure was inauguratedl
and the beneficial results At once seen. The dis
gushing Drugs and poisonS were discarded, and
to-day the Gift is prescribed by numbers of the
leading Physicians; yet, notwithstanding, the
sAmaritan's Gift is known 20 be q positive cure,
purely veget able, and pleasant to use, ss only
ten pills have to be taken, many old anti-deluvi-
ans will stick 20 their siekening drugs and gorge

of the county died at his residence in RootstowI
at about Eve O'Clock on Sunday morning last
Mr.. Chapman was born in \. Bolton (sino call

company with forty of his neighbors. he re-

Portage county. on the fifth day of November,
1901 Leaving his family at the house o.
Day, in Deerieid, he proceeded TO Rootstewn
where he selected a farm and erected log house
into which the family, consisting of seven per-
sons. moved in the latter part of November or
first of December, 1904 This was the fifth house
built in the township.
He was the father of nine children, five OF
whom survive him The first child. Asa Clark.

there is not person now living on the Western

he was first in Cleveland there were but two
houses, and he was in Buffalo after the burning
of that city by the British in 1875, when there
was but one house left.
His first wife died August s. 1875 and Ia March
1916 he man led Mrs. Ann Goods who died Aug.

What is SHARED in Chicago.

The Tribune, roughly estimating
the situation, says above $4,000 peo-
pie have left the city, $4,000 remain
ing. Five elevators were burned,
with 100000 bushels of grain; elev-
en- grain warehouses were left intact,
containing 100000 bushels. One
half the stock or produce were burned
up, and about the same proportion of
-four. There remains 240,OO0,OOO feet
of lumber, 100000 having been
burned, OF coal there $4,000 tons !;
burned, $4,000. Leather to the amount
of $95, 900 was destroyed, comprising
about one-quarter of the stock. The
quantities of groceries, dry goods,
boots and shoes and ready-made clo-
ing were scarcely equal to more than
a three weeks supply, and are being
rapidly replaced. Finally not more
than ten per cent. of the currency was
DESTROYED, 10000 houses are left stand
ing, and the real estate could not burn
up.
A careful average shows that Chica-
go has not suffered less than twenty
nor more than twenty-five per cent.
on her total assets, real and personal.
The ratio of her increase for usr-
ty four years has been ten and half
per cent. per annum, and this rate
would restore the status of month
ago within three years. Making eve
ry due allowance, the Tribune thinks
there can be no doubt that five years
hence, at most, the population, wealth,
commerce, &c, of the city will be
greater than month ago.

Constitutional Convention.

The Constitutional Convention will
have the same numerical strength as
the House of Representatives. 1t is
the opinion of well posted politicians
that bill will be introduced in the
Legislature soon after its assembling,
ordering an election for delegates on
the first Monday in April, and that the
Convention will commence it's labors
about the first Tuesday in May, and
possibly have the new instrument
ready to submit to the people at the
fall election of 1872.
The only qualification for delegates
to the last Constitutional Convention
was that they should be electors, thus
admitting Judges of the Courts, MEM
bers of Congress, etc., and it is pre-
sumed there will be no objection to
the election of those already holding
Office to the coming Convrntion.
The provision in our Constitution
that the Convention shall contist of
as many members as the House of
Representatives to be chosen in the
same manner" prevents the election
of delegates from the State at large.
The Constitution provides that the
delegates shall meet within three
months after their election, SO that, if
the election should be ordered to take
place i'll April, the deliberations will
have to be conducted during the
Presidential campaign. This will be
regarded as unfortunate by those who
desire TO take hand in both.-IStdteS-

1871 the Year of Calamtties.

An exchange truly SAYS: - 1871
will be remembered in history for the
great destruction of. human life.
Death by fame and flood has been
the daily chronicle of the times. Mil
lions of dollars worth of property
have been swept away on the raging
food or melted into ashes in the fire.
Fortunes have been swept away in a
twlnkling, and millionaires have been
metamorphosed into paupers by the
flash of red fame. The great fires
of Chicago, the forests of Michigan
and Wisconsin are supplanted by one
on the Rocky Mountains, where q
roaring fire is sweeping down the
mountain gorges, carrying death on
its tidal wave of flame. We read of
the losses at Halifax by the hurricane.
They were about 100000. This was
followed by freshets all over the land,
which incurred great destruction OF
life and property. Other nations have
been visited with disease. Pestilence,
with its hot breath, has blighted lands
and we have been spared. Our visit
alton is done by the elements, and in
the measure of our misfortune we
have received what was due US.
This, the year of calamity, will long
be remembered by the nations of the
earth.
