A Curious FRct.-In every civilized coun-
try throughout the world Devoe's Brilliant Oil il
known and used. In Europe, in Africa, In Austria
LA, the Sandwich Islands, in Jerusalem, whose
streets lighted with it, on the shores of the Cas-
plan Sea, in China in India snd Japan, it is ne
cessity and household word.
"Devoe's Brilliant OIL stenciIled on the cases
in which it is packed, meets the eye of the traveller
in strange lands, on every hand. Cradles in Syria
are seen made of the boards of these cases, and
babes are rocked to sleep eneompassed around with
''Devoes Brilliant Oil" at extremities and sides.
To reach all the consumers of this oil, circular
would require to be printed in 81 languages.
In fact, DevOe's Brilliant Oil is better known
abroad than at home, for the that the Devoe
Manufacturing Co. have principally directed their
attention to the export trade, and have not until
recently extensively introduced their oil to the
home market.
The clear, white steady, brilliant light afforded
by this illumination, however, and its safety beyond
chance under all circumstances, will undoubtedly
soon give it home in every house in the land
where oil is used.

"Now is the Winter of Our Discon.
tent made Glorious
by the arrival OF beautiful spring,
with its balmy days, warm showers,
green fields and budding trees. But
with all this beauty and brightness
comes work. The gardens must be
made, lawns cleared up, house
cleaning, painting, papering, white
washing, &c, to be done. For as
Nature awakens to new life and puts
on fresh livery, so we, naturally,
initiate her in this; and what more
fitting example could we follow than
hers ?
Now, such being the case, it is a
matter of the greatest Importance to
know how best to do this, and where
to procure the necessary materials of
the best quality, and at the same
time at the least cost. That 'the
best is the cheapest in the end" is a
fact accepted and acknowledged by
all. First tis the best at the begin
ming, lasts longer, costs no more for
the labor to apply than poor mate
rials, and lastly, there is very little
difference in the first cost.
I am speaking now of paints in
particular. Do you want to paint
white? There is no better or cheap
er made than the Phoenix Brand of
Eckstein Hills q Co., for which 1
am special agent,
1t has now been tried in this city
and county for ten years, and never
for once, has it failed to give entire
satisfaction. And 1 do firmly be-
lieve and assert there is no better
lead made. For colored paints, for
cottages, &C., we have our own
colored paints, which, for durability
and cheapness, far excel all liquid or
chemical paints. They never fade or
peel, and retain their lustre for years
Zinc Paint, Graining Colors, Var
nishes, and Brushes to use them, al
ways on hand, of the best quality,
and at the lowest price. So much
for paints.
Now, after painting, the smoky
walls must be papered and decorated; ;
whitewash won't do, it rubs off, and
soon looks as bad as ever. Ihave the
largest and best variety of Wall Pa
per ever brought to this city, which
must be sold at the lowest prices.
Now this is saying good deal, but if
you think of papering, don't buy un
til you look at my samples, and you
will be convinced that this statement
is true. But doy you ask where is this
place t? Where are such bargains to
be had {? And where only are the
best goods kept ? Why Where
else than at McCulloch's old and
reliable Drug Store! Established SO
years ago Come and see.

Now that the harvest is pretty well over,
and the farmers are realizing what an album
dant crop they have been blessed with, it Is
about time they were seeking out from among
their produce such articles as will compete
with those of their neighbors at the annual
fair. It yet lacks about two months OF the
time when the great exposition will take
place, and there is plenty of time left in which
to look after their stock, and get it also il
prime order for the occasion. For several
years past our county fairs have not been ex'
celled anywhere for display, and this year
with most prolific season, it should excel
any Of its predecessors. Then resolve that
you will do your part toward that result and
urge your nsighbOr to ike resolve. All per
SONS cannot take premiums, but all may gen.
erously compete with each other, and if they
make g failure this year may make SUGGEST
Of it next year. Do your duty.

Over at the wicked town of Fremont some
saloonists egged temperance meeting recent
ly, and afterwards saturated several papers
with coal oil, thrust them between two build
ings. got several buckets of water and set the
paper on fire. When the fire blazed up they
doused on the water and then charged the
fire on the temperance people. As the boards
apparently put up job, discovered too soon
and put out too easily--Kenton Republican.
We presume the above is based on an item
which appeared in the readable columns of
this paper several weeks ago, and referred to
an occurrence of the kind which took place at
Napoleon. No such occurrence ever took
place in Fremont. Although Fremont may
be wicked town, it is scarcely depraved
enough for that yet.

A Ghost Stcry.-Don't start, reader, at
the caption of this item. There is something
startling in the story, and the circumstances
are related in connection with names that
should entitle the relation to credsnce, but
like many other circumstances of the kind,
may be explained. The Kenton Democrat re-
lates the story which we condense: W. W.
Pingree was a citizen Of Ada, and had been a
soldier. He and his wife resided with his
mother, the widow of the late Rev. Mr.. Thorn
as. Two months since Mr.. Pingrse died Of
cancer in the throat, and Mrs. Thomas sold
her property to John Carey, ESQ., and with
her daughter moved to st. Louis. One night
recently, at the hour when "graveyards yawn
and graves give up their dead" Mr.. c. E.
Stumm, a wel-known shoemaker of Ada,
passed the Carey property and beheld the
dead mans ghost standing at the gate, its
throat wrapped in a handkerchief, and look
ing Just as in life Mr.. Pingree had looked.
MIR. Stumm, on his arrival at home, told his
wife, aud she, running to the window, bsheld
the vision as her husband described it. An
other citizen, at another time, beheld the Wis
ion in the yard and threw a stone at it, but as
it did not run he did, and considered not the
order Of his going. Joseph Engle, a we'll
known cooper, beheld it one morning at the
hour of two o'clock, and was terribly alarm
ed. Frank Hufard, prominent grocer, saw
the similitude sitting inside the window where
Mr.. Pingree used to sit. Others have seen it,
at the window, at the gate, lying down in the
| gard, but always with tie handkerchief
around its neck. The house is not now oc-
cupied, although offered rent free to any one
| who will reside IN IT. The story is q singular
one, and scarcely explainable as an optical il
lusion. The citizens of Ada should exercise
that ghost or interview it, which would doubt
less result in "laying" it.

divers Chilled Plow is one of those
agricultural implements which commends
itself to a farmer as soon as he examines it,
aud no wonder, for its many points of superb
ority are so pertinent that they at once COM
mend it. For ightness Of draft, steadiness in
running, ease of management, and its dura-
bility, enables it to do more work and to do
it better than any other plow yet introduced.
So far as economy is concerned, those who
know anything of the quality of chilled met
al, should know that plow made thus would
outwear any plOw made in the ordinary way.
Even steel pIow is not its equal for durabii-
