SPRING CHICKENs.-One of the worst
sells we haye heard of was perpetrated on
some of our citizens last week. A woman
called at various houses, represented that
she had lot of very fine young chickens
in her wagon, in the business part of town,
which she wanted to sell. She easily
struck a trade-at many places, and on
leaving made some excuse for asking % or
80 cents advanced upon them, which she
got in a dozen places, and then, failed to
bring the chickensSSsAt one place she said
she had the tooth ache, and asked'th lady
for % cents to get it extracted. "That is
not enough" said the kind-hearted, lady,
'sthe dentist will charge you 80 cents" and
advanced her the money, eh,' Mrs. D.?
She came up to one of our merchants, said
his wife sent her up to get rs cents tor
some chickens left at his house. j. H.,
with his mouth watering at the prospect of
those delicious fried chickens, willingly
paid her the 70 cents, but alas, for human
hopes, he was doomed to Disappointment
His wife never saw the woman, and he
does not like fried chickens any more.

day last'the editor rode out over not very
"rufp country, covered with "luxurantly'
growing crops. He saw some "smoothe'
land; "leasurly" lunched on potatoes saw
a~"lattis" summer house; speaks OF a
'leaver" flying backwards with such>~ force
as to "bery" itself, ETC.; he was "forcably"
reminded; tells of an assault by two
"breakmen"; says that having the body
clothed in fine ''linnen" seems to be "safe.
gard" etc; says that it was "miracal' ;
mentions farmer as owning 1925 acres,
which were mot unsinaLar in their lay.
He says he was presented with some fine
sstrawberises", wants the legislature to
condemn all laws that does not harmonic

q The question has ofteneeen asked by those in
terested, "Can have my gray hair res tored to
its natural color, without coloring the skin? and
can my thin locks.be thickened up!'' We answer
1T can !, and would advise yen to read trea
tse on the hair, which is published by r. p. Hall
d Co, Nashua, N. H., who send it free upon APP
plication. They are the proprietors of Halls
Vegetable Sicilian Hair Remover. We learn
from It that hair in perfect state of heal tn is
constantly falling out, and new hairs grow from
the same tubes; but, in case of any disease of
the scalp, or by the use of alcoholic preparations,
the hair tube becomes contracted at its mouth,
and prevents the new follicle from reaching the
surface. Their preparation will create perfect
y healthy condition of the scalp, and by it's tonic
properties, will preserve and strengthen the roots
OF the hair.-StdteSnldR, Des Moines, Iowa 42w1

have no flowers, or exchange fayors with
those who have. You will surely find that
