FLEGANT HAIR adds charm to the plain
- est face; but when faded, features before
agreeable lose their comeliness, and the whole
expression is that of advancing age. This be-
ing fact. it is not surprising that even inju-
rious articles should have been prepared to sup
ply the millions who wish to avoid premature
gray hair. Under these circumstances it will
scarcely be wondered at that NATTANS CR9S-
tai DISCOVERY should have met with such
extraordinary success.
It is the only preparation furnishing a safe
and reliable restorer for the hair absolutely
free from all poisonous and deleterious matter
and without sediment, and thousands above
thousands have availed themselves of it, not
simply because it restores the color of the hair
but because it supplies nourishment. 1t feeds
the roots of the hair, so that where decayed it
becomes vigorous and healthy again. From
all sections of the country orders and testimo-
mails are received daily, speaking in the high
est terms of its qualities as the onyl preparation
that ever gave entire satisfaction. Those who
have used CRYSTAL DISCOVERY will not use
anything else; but to those who have not tried
this excellent article it is recommended that
when they are again in want of the kind to
give it a trial you will be more than pleased !;
you will be delighted with it, and will never
again be without it. Don't let your druggist,
if he has not got CRYSTAL DISCOVERY per-
suade you to buy something else, or you will be
disappointed; rather go where you get can itput
up in large bottles, containing half as much
more as any other in market and, consequent
ly, much the cheapest. Price one dollar. For
sale by all druggist. je 26-ly

BeyOnd the Mississippi.

Thousands have already gone, and thousands
more are turning their eyes towards new homes
in the fertile West. To those going to Missou-
ri, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, Wyo-
ming, Nevada, Oregon or California, we recon-
mend cheap, safe, quick and direct route, Uia
ST. Louis, over the Missouri Pacific Railroad,
which runs its fine Day Coaches and Pullman
Sleepers from ST. Louis to principal points in
the West without change. We believe that the
Missouri Pacific Railroad has the best track and
the finest and safest equipment of any line west
of the Mississippi, and its connections with roads
further West are prompt and reliable The
Texas connection of this road is now completed
and passengers are offered a first class, all-rail
route from ST. Louis to Texas, either over the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas r. R., ola SeddIia, or
over the Atlantic & Pacific R. R., via Vnita.

We have seen private letter Of recent
date from Governor Bowie to a gentleman
of this village in which, we are pleased to
announce, Gov. Bowie reiterates the assur-
ances heretofore given by the Railroad
Company of the intention of that corpora
ton to give us, as early as practicable
good and sufficient freight and passenger
accommodations at Port Tobacco Station.
This, we are sure, will be acceptable news
to a large number of our citizens for whom
Port Tobacco Station is, by reason OF Its
location, most desirable shipping point,
Indeed, for great number of our people,
this station is the only one on the line of
the railroad which can be made available
as against the inducements offered for wa
ter transportation. The determination OF
our County Commissioners to take action
in the matter of grading Mount Hill will
be carried into effect as soon as those gen
tlemen designated for the work get through
with their present pressing engagements.
At all events our authorities will be in
time to meet the requirements of the peo-
pie when the proposed buildings are con-
structed This action of the railroad Off
Gals on the one hand and of our Commits
sioners on the other will thus open new
and much needed avenue for travelling
and business purposes.
We cannot account for the culpable apa-
thy which seems to prevail among the
farmers of this neighborhood. Several in
effectual attempts have been made here to
organize Farmers Club. We say inef-
fectual, because they have resulted in no
thing but most lamentable display of in
difference. We cannot understand this
holding back and don't touch policy, which
seems to actuate our farmers in this vicin-
ity, in matters which all readily agree are
of vital significance to their interests. In
other sections of the county the farmers APP
pear to be active and earnest in their eff
forts to ameliorate their own condition, as
well as to improve that of others with
whom they are brought in social or bust
ness contact. Instead of taking the lead
in such laudable enterprises, the farmers OF
Port Tobacco district seem to be complete
ly enervated, and, for all practical purposes
affecting their interest, appear effectually
paralyzed by their own Indifference
Strenuous, active, business-like efforts, on
the part of farmers, must, sooner or later
eliminate in decidedly fortunate results
If those farmers hereabouts, who talk SC
largely, and expatiate SO extensively on the
subject of the farmers interest, would lend
helping hands and make some little effort
to reduce their theories to practice, the
whole community would speedily realize
the advantages inevitably arising from a
thorough farmers organization.

On last Sunday and Monday our county
was visited with copious and most re-
freshing fall OF rain. The growing crops
were greatly suffering with drought, but
marked improvement has taken place since
the rain, and of course the prospects for
corn and tobacco are much better than
short time ago. The severe drought, how
ever, had already so much retarded growth
that we do not think full yields can be
safely calculated on. Prince Georges
county, which had suffered, from all &C
counts, for rain much more than we had,
has also been benefited by the showers of
Sunday and Monday.
During the thunder storm on Monday
last, two very valuable mules belonging to
DR.. E. V. Edelen were struck by lightn-
ing and Immediately killed. The storm
ragged with great violence in certain Sec
tions of the county and was particularly
severe along the course of Zachiah Swamp.
Mr.. John II. Jenkins, of this town, has
been appointed Officer of Registration for
this election district, vice W. G. Brent, re-
signed. Mr.. Jenkins made no application
for the appointment, and did not know it
was contemplated. The arrival of the
commission at the Clerks office was the
first intimation he had of the resignation
of Mr.. Brent We regret that Nh. Jenkins
declines to accept the appointment.
Sometime last spring the County Com
missioners decided to open the new road
petitioned for across Zachiah Swamp to a
point near Cox's Station, on the railroad,
and for the last few days the authorized
examiners, Messrs. Price, Bryan and Sass
Ger, have been engaged with Mr.. James L.
Brawner, County Surveyor, in laying off
the road.
AS will be seen by reference to the time
table of the B. 6 P. r. R., published else
where in our columns to-day, the hours for
the arrival and departure of the cars at the
different stations have been somewhat
changed. This change went into effect
GA the oath ult., and does not materially
affect the convenience of our people.
Within the last few days the arrivals at
the Cox's Station Hotel number ffty-two.
Most of whom were from Baltimore and
Washington. This is an indication that
friend Hawkins is thriving in his line.-
There is no reason why q well ordered and
properly kept hotel should not do good
business in this county. Good attendance,
cleanliness, convenient culinary arrange
ments, generous supplies of well cooked
edibles for the table and an accommodate
ing disposition are essential to the pros
porous management of a hotel, and, we
doubt not, these requisites abound where
friend Hawkins and his estimable wife
have the direction Of matters.

Pumpkins for Cows.

From a peck of seed dropped
and covered in the gaps of a
corn-feld, a dairy of nine COWS
have been kept up to summer
milking, and the quality of the
butter is super-excellent, and
six heifer calves raised from the
above as fat as moles. The
COWS are fatter, too, than a ma
jOrity Of the cattle slaughtered.
These COWS have been making
about six pounds Of butter per
week, besides supplying new
milk and cream for a gentle
mans house with sixteen in
mates. The pumpkins are
chopped up in the manger with
a spade, morning, noon and
night, about half a bushel each
time when cut into pieces. They
eat while being MIXED morning
and night, and they come to
the yard and go into the stable
for half an hour at noon. Beets,
carrots and some other roots
and small ears of corn will fol-
low, SO as to keep up the milk
during winter.

Relieving ohoked Cattle.

On an animal becoming choked
with any hard substance that
cannot pass the gullet, harsh
measures should never be used
until all others have failed,
The practice of placing a
block against one side of the
throat and endeavoring to break
the obstruction with mallet,
as is sometimes practiced, is
simply brutal. One Of the sim
plest and at the same time most
eficacious remedies is to give
a half pint of lard oil or melt
ed lard, by drawing out the an
imals tongue, raising the head
and administering from a long
necked bottle. This lubricates
the gullet, sickens the stomache,
relaxes the muscles of the
throat, and in coughing, the
lodged substance will generally
pass either up or down.
1.-THE choking has existed so
long that Inflammation of the
throat has ensued, resort must
be had to the probang, any flex-
ible rod or whalebone, vulcan
lied rubber, etc, with a sponge
or soft substance affixed to the
end. Introduce the soft end
into the throat, holding the an
imal's head up, and the obstruc-
ton being reached, press it
firmly down at any risk, for it
IS now a case OF lie or death.
To relieve the initiation, APP
ply slippery-elm poultice,
keeping it in close contact with
the throat by securing the folds
in which it is placed by means
of chords to the horns, keep
the animal on soft light food,
assisted with linseed tea, until
the Inflammation is subdued.

Examine the Apples.

Apples should be examined,
and those commencing to decay
removed from the shelf or bar
rels, and placed by themselves,
for immediate use. It should
not be forgotten that a decay
ing apple that touches another
apple will soon rot it; but more
than this, the presence of decay
ing fruit in a cellar has ten
dency to induce decay even in
fruit that is not in direct con-
tact with it. Remoyeall affect
ed fruit from the cellar as soon
as possible.
