He was an Adventist, which did not

the world was going to come to an end

keep him from seeing his shortcomings.

A Prevalent Disease.

There is no disease SO prevalent in Amer
ca as dyspepsia and certainly none which
has so generally baffled and defeated the
skill of the medical profession. The only
remedy Tor this distressing complaint is a
pure medcated stimulant. Hostetters
Stomach Btters, whose essential prime iple
is sound rye, is admitted by medical prac-
titioner TO be the only Alternative, correct
i've and restorative on which they can rely.
The bllters are the best possible specific for
natuency, dizziness, waterbrash irregulari-
ty OF the bowels, and all indications of con-
tirmed dyspepsia. They do not excite, but
sooth the irritated stomach and bowels, and
may be taken by persons of the most deli
cate and sensitive organization, who are
unpleasantly affected by the use of the or
binary stimulants Of commerce. Though
their effect is most decisive, yet they are
SO mild and beneicent in operation, as to
be suitable to children as well as to adults

An Early State Convention.

The Sparta Herald has an article on
the approaching canvass in this state.
which concludes by favoring an early
state convention. Many of the best
ctmpaigners among the republicans are
Ia favor OF a convention before harvest
this year, instead of holding it in the
busiest season OF the year as has gener.
ally been the case, and we are not GER
tain but that the idea is good one.
fhe Heru{2'S article closes as follows:
From somewhat general inquiry
we are led to believe that the desire
and wish OF the republicans of this
state Is that the best aud strongest men
OF the party IN the state may be select
ed to represent it on the ticket for
state officers, and that no dlssensions or
quarrels may arise In their selection.
That the reform movement of two
years ago, and the reform party, grow
ing out of it have most signally failed to
meet its pledges, and the wishes of all
the people is manifestly evident, and
has sadly disappointed the independent
and honest friends of that movement.
They are fully prepared for return of
that party to power, which has been SO
true to It's promises, and under whose
administration the affairs of the state
have always been honestly, economical
ly and wisely conducted What is
wanted Is for the right nominations to
be made at the convention this summer
and with good, sound, earnest work,
tie ticket will receive the largest ma
jority yet secured by the republicans
Ia this state.
To effect this it would seem proper
that an early and efficient organization
of the party should be had, and con.
vention for the nomination of candidates
for state officers held some time about
the last Wednesday 10 June, or on the
first "Wednesday in July next. What
say our republican brethren of the press
of Wisconsin to this suggestion?

dition to those already published in
regard to the recent killing frosts; the
heaviest in years at this season in Ten
nesseee, Alabama, Georgia, South Car

Advlces from Western Michigan
state that the frost damaged rawber-
ries, black berries and other small fruits
seriously. Peach buds were generally
killed during the cold weather in Feb
ruary, and the trees are so severely in
Jured that in many instances whole or :
chards will die. Fruit men now de-
SPAR of any mark etable fruit this
season. Wheat has been injured.
In Iowa, in the latitude of Daven-
port, snow fell Friday and Saturday.
The frosts have greatly injured the
fruit prospects, and early vegetables n
some places have been killed.
There was killing frost, Saturday
night, doing serious injury in Georg ia
and South Carolina. it was the. hard :
est freeze in years. ''Truck" farms
are badly injured.
Snow fell in Virginia on Sunday, as
far South as Norfolk. The cold snap
has killed the fruit and early vege-
tables. The loss to trucksters is very
severe.

A Steal, Extraordinary.

There is no accounting for the perver-
sity of tastes and dispositions of the Oar
winian climax We were led to the above
conclusion by the fact that one day Tor
night the past week, some specimen of
the above genus wearing a No. 10 stogy
boot, entered the garden precincts Of one
of our towns-people, and, Nebuchadnezzar
like, stalked to the lettuce bed and helped
himself to a goodly portion Of the green
fodder; then recrossed the garden, taking
in his way the onion patch, where he
stretched forth his kleptomaniacal hand
and drew from their resting place enough
of those highly scented vegetables to
have satisfied an ordinary flock of Kan
sas Grasshoppers. This was done by
some one during the absence of the fami-
", and had he only taken what would
have satisfied the cravings of his capa-
cious NAV, the owner would not have
cared so much, but, he feels, that how
ever much he may be disposed to forgive
a hungry man, evidently too lazy to work,
for the crime of petty larceny, he cannot
forget the tracks made over the fair face
of his garden, by that pair of No. 10 boots,
especially as the owner ''looked not to
the way Of his going" but like the jack
ass among the chickens he placed his
huge boots upon the heads ofany number
of square yards of young and delicate
vegetables, that have this long cold spring
been doing their best to hold their heads
above the ground. 20! but the offence is
rank and smells to Heaven" If it hath
not "the primal eldest curse upon it, 1t
sbould have. For an offense of purlOirt-
ing in garden, our first parents were ex-
PEELED the precincts thereof. and yet we
venture to say, the odor of their breaths
was as much sweeter than that OF our
modern garden thief, as the rose is sweet
er than the Symplocarpsa Foettdus,
Skunk Cabbage.) Now we have written
this, that in case any of our good people

The showers of last week, we learn fell
very unequally over the country. Owing
to the unusually protracted cold weather,
barley is very thin. Wheat is looking
well and at present gives promise OF fully
an average crop. With regard to the
"stand" of corn accounts vary. While
there is probably an average "stand" over
the county it is undoubtedly true that
many are experiencing the results OF
poorly saved seed corn. Notwithstand-
ing the want of early rains the prospect
of a heavy hay crop is fattering.
