There were several alarms of fire, last
week, one occasioned by a gentleman
burning stubble and another by the whis-
tie of an engine which some imaginative
youth construed into an alarm of fire and
passed it on to his neighbor. One gen
tleman was very Indignant and expressed
himself very bitterly against those who
would ruthlessly awaken score of babies
during the early hours of the night with
out knowing where the fire was.

A number of our citizens have erected
houses at Kern's Springs, a delightful
retreat sit uateG about five miles West of
Woodstock. There are number of
springs, one of which is strong chaly-
beate and another is similar to the water
Of Capon Springs.
No boarding house has been erected
upon the grounds but number of per-
sons who have tested the invigorating
quality of the waters have been in the
habit of boarding with private families in
the neighborhood. Shenandoah, with her
White Sulphur superior to the celebrated
Greenbrier Spring. her Alum equal to the
Rockbridge Alum, her Bear Wallow of
Orkney, her Sulphur and Chalybeate of
Kelly's, her long celebrated Poison of
Bonds and her Capon and Ice Cold Cha
l beate of Kern's, is destins d to rival, as II
place of health restoring resort, the most
celebrated watering places of the country.
Nature has certainly lavished upon this
county not only unestimated mineral
wealth. but has poured out abundant
streams Of remedial waters superior to the
bitter tones of any human laboratory.
Enterprise will develop them and thous-
ands will be glad tepertake of our health

Rules and Regulations for the

Model Publisher. The following
rules and regulations respecting news
papers are so we'll understood by the
general public that they need hardly
be repeated, but the members of the
press, although reminded in various
ways that they are not Forgotten, will
testify to their correctness
The model newspaper publisher will
always send his paper free 20 any relig-
ious association or roadingroom asso-
citation that requests it, satisfied to
know that the inhabitants cf the coun-
ty will walk two miles to read the free
paper rather than subscribe to IT,
Any person can have forty or fifty
copies of the paper free at any time,
by coming in and saying he is "an old
subscriber or FUSED to take the pa
per"
Any person who advertises to the
extent of four aud sixpence will be en-
titled to to take away two or three
dollars worth of paper on the date
the advertisement appear, and have the
paper sent free to him ever after.
Whatever the price of advertising
may be, the publisher will always be
prepared to make discount"
If you happen to get an advertise
ment into The Bungtown Banner for
So column remember that this is the
standard price for all other newspa-
pers.
The best way to get your advertising
done cheap is to have a letter-head
printed, reading, advertising Agency
of Shyster, Shears d Co., and then
send your order to the publisher re-
questipg him to deduct the usual
commission of 81 l-2 per cent.
When there IS an unusual demand
for the paper, send up to the Office for
an extra copy (free) and say yours has
not been left, A crowd of these ap-
plications always shows the publisher
ON what day there is anything unusu-
ally attractive or spicy in his paper,
and how many people will lie for a six
pence each.
If you change your residence or
place of business do not take the
trouble to order your newspaper left at
the new location, but drop in at the
Office three months afterwards and
blow the clerk up for not having the
paper left correctly.
If you do business at the top of a
six-story building, always insist upon
having your paper delivered up there
promptly. 1t is good exercise for the
carrier, who generally has two hours
to deliver a heavy list, and if your
door is locked when he gets there-why
let him wait until you get along.--BOs-
