The Source of MANY Ills.

If al the ailments, bodily and mental, which tor
nent the human family could be traced to their
primary sources, it would probably be found that
three-fOurths of them originated in the failure OF
the stomach and the other organs by which the food
is converted into nutrment and applied to the pur-
poses of life perform the tasks allotted to them
by nature, vigorously and regularly. This being
the CAGE the vast importance OF a medicine which
compels these organs to do their whole duty thor
Oughly and efficiently, becomes at once apparent
Hostetters Stomach Bitters be truly character
lied as preparation OF this kind indeed as the on
Iy ono which be implicitly relied on as conbln-
ing the properties of stoma chic alternative ana
apparent in such proportions as to produce sim
ultaneously the desired effect upon the disordered
stomach. liver and intestines. This conclusion Is
warranted by the celebrity and certainty with which
the Btters afford relief in chronic cases of dyspep
STA torpidity of the liver and constipation. The
false idea that these complaints and others that
grow ont of Il EN-, cOud be cured by herce cathar-
tics has at last il is hoped, been thoroughly e1-
ploded The sick during the last hundred years,
have swallowed thousands Of tons of mercury scam

thousands of graves have been prematurely hlled
thereby. But ever since the principle of removal
ton, as embodied in HOstetters Stomach Bltterss
was arrayed against the principle of prostratlon,
as represented by mineral stffVants and furious
purgatves the latter has steadily and surely fallen
into deserved contempt. The outcry against slim

hoped to give ECLAr to their Disgusting and dan

The Hog CrOn.

The future of the hog crop is yet I'M
certain. Many believe that the product
will almost equal that of last year, while
others predict that it will show de-
crease of from Is to 90 per cent. on ac-
count of the short crop of corn and the
smallness of the hogs now being sent
forward. The serious damage to the
corn crop in Kansas and the neighboring
sections has forced hogs TO Illinois and
Indiana, where they viii be highly fed
by the most extraordinary crops of corn
and wheat ever grown in those two
States. Chicago viii have these stocks
at her door, and as a consequence, will
be able to dictate prices to a great ex-
tent, throughout the coming season.

al Pleasant OccasiOn.

The sociable gathering of the young
ladies and gentlemen of the village, at
the residence of Mrs Reed, last Friday
evening, was delightful and happy af-
fair, and will long be remembered by
those who were present. A gOodly num-
Der of the young folks of the town and
vicinity were visitors, and after present
ing their pound" contributions, were
escorted into the parlor and introduced
and made familiar with the guests. In
teresting games were soon introduced,
which gave zest and delightful amuse-
ment uutil at a seasOnable hour walters
made their appearance, bearing great
platters and basketsful of choice sweat
meats, fruits and nuts which were dis
tributed TO the visitors The music was
furnished by Mr. Joe Paddy, Henry
Shields and Charlie Reed. 1t was in
keeping wita their proficiency as must
clans aud was highly appreciated by the
company. There were many regrets ex-
pressed that the illness Of Miss Laura
Reed prevented her from bcing present
and participating, as it would have been
that much more pleasant and enjoyable
to her many friends.

Fifth & Last Gift Concert,
In Aid of the
Public Library of Kentucky.
A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.


The management have determined to
have the drawing Of the Fifth and Last
Gift Concert of the Public Library of
Kentucky, on the 30th day of November
next We believe now that all the tick
cts will be sold, and that the drawing
will be full one, but whether all are
sold or not the drawing will nevertheless
certainly come off on the day appointed.
The special object of this card is to
call meeting of the ticket-halders at
Public Library Hall, on the goth OF No
vember, to make arrangements IN con-
nection with the committee appointed
by the Trustees to superintend the count
ing of the tags representing the numbers
of tickets sold While there is no actual
necessity for the presence of ticket-hol
ers, as under our arrangements the inter
ests of all are equally cared for, yet at
the same time l would greatly prefer that
as many of those interested as can, would
attend this meeteng and see each for him
self how perfectly fair and impartial the
distribution must be.
Every arrangement has been made for
the drawing-but little more than a
month remains for the sale of the re-
mainder of the tickets, and whatever is
done must be done promptly.

The Lee Memorial Monument.

Inc Lee meInOF1aA U0OndAHCAGS
The latest advices from the Lee Me
mortal Association is that Prof. Edward
" Valentine, tIae sculptor, having pro-
cured from Vermont a block of pure
white marble, is fashioning the statue of
Gen. Lee, which is TO be placed ON the
grand monument new being erected at
mis- tomb, at the Washington and Lee
University, Lexington, Virginia. The
position upon a couch, his head and
shoulders slightly raised above the body,
his left arm outstretched by the side of
his sword, his right arm laid across his
breast He wears full Confederate uni
form, including boots and gauntlets, and
a light drapery covers nearly the whole
form The appearance is natural and
graceful, indicating peaceful slumber
rather than death. --
The monument, when surmounted
with the fine work of art, will be last
ing memorial to one of Virginia's no
blest sons and patriots. The members
of this Association are gentlemen well
and favorably known by the entire com
munity, who will see thatSnothing is left
undone that will add to the beauty and
finish of this great work. We are ad-
vised by the Secretary, Mr.. Chas. A.
Davidson, of Lexington, Virginia, that
the funds subscribed are insufficient to
complete the monument In order to
further this object they have issued a
lSfe-size steel engraved portrait of Gen.
Lee, to be sotd only by subscription,
through authorized agents, the proceeds
of such sales to be applied toward the
completion of the work. An opportu-
nifty is here presented to every person,
not only to procure, at a reasonable
price, superb life-like portrait of the
General, but to aid in the erection of a
lasting monument to his memory, Each
subscriber will receive certificate duly
signed by the Secretary and Chairman
| of the Lee Memorial Association.
We commend this valuable portrait to
the public, and predict for it an immense
sale. Some energetic person should Sc

At the NJ. e. Church, South, last Sun
day, the exercises were conducted by
Rev. Mr. Stewart, who, with several
other Ministers returning from Confer
ence, spent Sabbath. in our town., The
day was lovely and the church was filled
with attentive listeners His text was
Rev. 22:14, and the sermon was prefaced
with an apology that the speaker did not
feel much like preaching on this occa-
sion. We mention this to remark pa
renthetically that when we hear such an
nOuncements from the pulpit experience
has taught us what to expect, and we at
once mentally postpone our dining to
an hour later, and exercise our Christian
mind in framing acceptable excuses to
our disappointed cook while our ears
are being pierced by as healthy and stem
torian sounds as ever came from the
lungs of Stentor. But it was not so on
the present occasion. The speaker only
dwelt fifty-eight minutes on his text,
handling it as only a learned teacher
could and deeply impressing the minds
of his hearers with his powerful and
comprehensive utterances.
The night services at the Baptist
Church were conducted by Rev. J. NJ.
L. Burnett, who stated that it was his
object to exhort with those present rather
than to preach a sermon. That he felt
it to be the duty of every Christian to
take an interest in Scriptural teachings
and to feel their Indebtedness to the Ho-
" Trinity, and strive to promote the
cause of Christianity more prosperously
throughout the world. He urged upon
his hearers to think of what he had spok-
en-, and to make up their minds to give
up the things contained in the earth be-
low and to fix their affections on things
above more lovely and lasting, which
rest in the bosom of Gods domain ION
high.
Services were also held in the old
Court House building by the new pastor
of the NJ. E. Church. We understand
preparations are making for the erection
of new building by that congregation.

The pupils are making fair progress. Mr..

H. Carter, teacher.
This school is not as efficient as it
should be- This is owing to meagre-

choked while eating, and the obstruction
in the throat of the poor beast was SO
persistent in its determination to stay
where it was, that it defied every effort
made to dislodge it, when tablespoon
