We consider the Providence superior to
all others, for the following reasons;-
1st. The ROLLERS, of large size and
best quality Of White Rubber, are all Sc
cured to their Shafts in the most perma-
nent manner, by the Moulton Process, max.
ing the best Roller in the World.
"a The PATENT MENTAL JOURNAL
CASTINGS prevent any wear upon the
Journals.
1.-THE wooden. Journal in which the iron
shafts of other machines run, soon wear,
and the efficiency of the Wringer is there
by greatly reduced.
3D. The DOUBLE SPIRAL C0GS used
on this Wringer give the utmost ease and
s'eadiness in working, while the double
stop prevents them from bottomng or be-
ing thrown out Of gear. We furnish either
single or double gear Providence, as de-
sired, -
4th. The ADJUSTABLE CURVED
CLAMP readily adjusts this Machine tC
tubs of any size or thickness, making per-
feet fastening, No wooden pegs or rubber
straps on this Clamp.
5ih. SIMPLICITY STRENGTH and
BEAUTY, are combined in this Machine
with all the requisites of frst'clas'
Wringer.

gloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that q new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
mcnt, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
It's occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration Of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and iniu-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. IF wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.

TIE MINER Of last week expresses
the thanks of the Marysville Class to
Miss Helen Mathews Of Knoxville for
assistance rendered during the County
Musical Convention.
The Literary Society at Hamilton
is in furnishing condition.
Mr.. Samuel States has opened a
new coalbank on his land mile and
Il half west Of Marysville, in which
the coal is seven feet in thickness and
Of the very best quality.
And the Miner says:
There are but few old settlers in
this County who are not acquainted
with what was once known as Tally's
Ford, the present site OF Bellefontaine.
And those same old settlers will well
remember the person who carried
them across the Des Moines river at
that place. Nor are there only few
who will remember the lady, Mrs.
Tally, who through wind and storm
carried them safely across the water
ut Tally's Ford. Mr.. and Mrs. Tally
are now living at this place. Mrs.
Tally, the once rugged pioneer lady,
is being carried slowly and surely to
her grave by the unrelenting gnawing
of u cancer. she has tried all reme-
dies, sought aid by visiting noted
physicians, but without effect. The
cancer made its appearance on her left
breast, and has spread and eaten its
way over her right breast until it has
become incuable. Her few remain
ing days will be those of intense suf-
fering and distress. The afflicted lady
has the true sympathy of all her large
circle of friends and acauaintances
who try to make her suflerings easy
to be borne.

A SCoUNDREL BROUGHTTO TIME
Last Summer Mr.. Jacob ProDasco, an
aged citizen of Indiana, came to this
city on visit to his relative, Mr.. Ju-
Illus Ward, and while here determined
to purchase property, and did pur-
chase Of Mr.. Jacob Bruce, in Polk
Township. To secure means, Mr..
Probasco gave a power of attorney to
the son-in-law Of his wife, named
Francis Marion, authorizing said
scamp to sell Mr.. P's farm in Indiana.
The sale was effected, and about ST., :
600 realized theretrom.
Months and months Messrs. Pro-
basco ahd Bruce waited for the money
from Indiana which was to pay for
the farm bought in Polk Township,
but they waited in vain. Finding, at
last, that the undutiful step son-in-
law had sold the home farm, and was
inclined to play the rascal about the
management Of the proceeds, Mr..
Bruce, having obtained q requsition
from the Governor Of this State, took
q trip to Indiana, and finding the
guilty party, he was arrested, and
under guard brought to Iowa, and
now lies in the Jasper County Jail
where he will stay until the District
Court determines his guilt or limo
cencc of crime.
We are informed that the crime foI
which he was arrested and brought tC
| this State for trial, was the obtaining
of money at Monroe, Jasper County
under authority of the power of at
| torney given him, and which he bias
fraudulently converted to his own
use. -Democrdt, 9th inst.

was last heard from at Knoxville,
Iowa, on the 23d of May, 1871. Mr..
It. left his home some months before,
with wagon and span of bay horses,
to work as laborer on the railroads.
Was for a time at Centreville, Iowa;
afterward at Princeton, Missouri,
which place he left early in May. He
had usually been prompt in writing
to his family; and last wrote from
Knoxville, Iowa, on the 23d, stating
that he found no work and should
leave in few days, but emitting to
mention where he was going. Since
then nothing has been heard from
him, and his family are naturally
anxious, and fear that some accident
has befallen him. Mr.. r.. was about
sixty-two years old, Of medium size,

had his team with him. Any inform

How He MADE TIN answer to
the Oskaloosa Ucrayd's recent inquiry
how our Knoxville fish ponds were
made, we are able now to give the fol-
lowing statement as to Mr.. Overton's:
He first dug well in low piece OF
ground; and then, as the well over
flowed, he plowed and scraped away
the dirt all around it--thus making
the pond. Around the lower side OF
it lie built dirt lcvee. The pond
when full will hold about Is feet OF
water, and will then cover about an
acre Of ground, the vein of water
where the well was being in the mid
die Of it. The ice over the vein never
freezes very thick. This is the whole
OF the process Of getting the fsh-pond
"a very simple and easy matter foi
almost any man who has an acre OF
SO of ground.

| THE PELLA BLADE of last week very
plainly processes to have mo faith
in the Mississippi and Northwestern

from the Muscatine Journal an article
denouncing Mr.. Clancy as a "hum-

fusion and cheat. Well, the Blade
and the Journal are of course at liber-
ty to think what they choose. We
are not endorsers for Mr.. Clancy by
any means. He has the appearance

contrary. The Btade can't build the

QUAIL LAw.-Notwithstanding the
has repeatedly published an abstract
of the game law of this State, we were
yesterday asked by prominent game
dealer OF the city when the killing or
trapping of quails was prohibited.
The law was passed in 1868. The first
section, which contains the gist of the
law, we copy entire. The remaining
sections forbid any common carriers
to convey any game killed after the
date forbidden, and prescribe fines for
any violation of the law. Section
is as follows:
SECTION l. BE 1t enacted by the
General assembly Of the State Of Iosod,
That it shall be unlawful for any per-
son. except on his own premises and
for his own exclusive use, to kill, en-
snare, or trap any wild deer, elk or
fawn, prairie hen or chick EN-, between
the first day Of January and the first
day of August in each and every year;
and 'woodcock between the first day
of January and Julyin each year; any
quail. ru1fied grouse, or pheasant,
between the fifteenth day Of Deem
Der and the twelfth day of Sep
tember; or any wild turkey between
the first of February and the first of
September: Provided, That, except on
liis own premises. it shall be further
unlawful for any person to net, en-
snare or trap any Of said game except
in the month of December; -A,ad Pro
rided Further, That except on his own
premises it shall be unlawful for any
person to ensnare, net or trap any
Quail at any time of the year prior to
