"Strange'' but True,

Toledians have recently experienced
surprise-and profitable one, too.
Nor willthis be matter of doubt when
we repeat that ''strange men, have open
ed a strange store lat 1877 SUMMIT
STREET. with strange stock of goods at
strange prices" as compared with any
thing befor5 submitted on thecash prin-
oiple in that city. This charmingly TT
ted, abundantly stocked, and marvelously
cheap establishment, supplies the choi-
cest line Of -confectionary-
frlits--cigars, and in fact anything de-
sired. The gentlomanly principals are
unremitting in courteous attentions,
there is an endless variety to select from,
and it is evident from the quality and
prices Of their goods they are equally
adopts at purchasing as1 at selling.
Those consulting the limits of their ex-
ohequer win unquestionably realise q
strange saving by calling on this strange
Arm, which is gaining q strange popu-
larity--127 Summit street, Toledo.

Lesher'S Old-Established Bakery, Res.
taurant and Reliable Tobacco and
Cigar Store.
Who is there-we would ask-in our
city, township, or even county, that is
not familiar with the etime-honored name
of Lesher, which has graced our princi-
pal street considerably over quarter of
century, And, who is there that is not
also more or less personally acquainted
with the boys-Henry and Jacob-or
that has not borne testimony to their
business capacities, strict integrity and
familiar society. We can safely answer
few, indeed. But since the mutual
dissolution of the old firm of J. &. Il.
Lesher, some eighteen years ago, Jacob
has run the business successfully down
to the opening of the present year, when
Henry again came to the front, assumed
entire charge, and never was the bust
ness in better running order than at
present. As bakery it is one of the
earliest stArtedin our city, has ever main
tanned high prestige, and unquestion-
ably still takes the lead either for plain
or fancy bread, cakes or biscuits. A
very choice assortment of confectionery
and a fine line of shelf groceries are also
here to be met with-invariAbly fresh
and at bottom figures. OF the restaur-
ant portion it may be well to state it is
abundantly provided with the best of re-
freshments even to ale and cider, but
spirituous drinks and winesare otkept.
Neatly furnished apartments are always
available for hot tea, coffee, oysters, &C.,
during the winter, and in the summer
ice cream, fruits and various summer
beverages are promptly served up. Nor

MIrht Hara Rnen Mornn.

Henry swint, farmer, Of Rice town.
Ship, was driving home in a two-horss
cutter on Saturday evening, when the
double tree slipped the tongue, and the
horses drew him over the dashboard.
But still worse to relate, a wagon and
team we're close behind, and ran over
the sleigh before the driver could pull
them up. The result was that Mr..
Swint was considerably bruised and
scratched, while the sleigh was badly
damaged-though the occurrence might
have terminated far worse.

How "The Fashion" May be Readily
Dispensed With.

Atpresent, in whatever direction one
turns they invariably find friends and
strangers, alike, almost distracted with
coughs and colds, that to be free OF
these besetting ills would simply rule
one "out of fashion" But it must be
generally conceded that such fashion
is more agreeable in its breach than in
its observance, and when, per force of
circumstances, one is compelled to bear
the inAiotion it is verify treat to learn
how to dispense with it. The best our
can dictate is unquestiona-
bly, BUoKLAND's TUIU AND WILD CHER
RY BAIsAN-unsurpassed for diseases of
the throat and lungs, and infallible for
establishing a most healthful condition
of the respiratory organs. Thousands
have already tested its virtues and still
resort to as an invaluable remedy. 1t
controls and soothes the cough, induces
sleep, and invigorates the whole system.
1t is comparatively inexpensive, and
constantly kept perfectly fresh in stock.
No prudent family should be without it.

Another Fox Hunt.

The second great Fox hunt came of
on Saturday about ], 900 present. There
was some excellent sport, four animals
being put up, but one of which escaped.
The three captured are, we believe in
the custody Of Mr.. W. Slime, and are
we'll and hearty. 1t has been suggested
that when the weather will permit there
shall be chase iudulged on the fair
ground. Our special No. 2 left with
the party on Saturday and is probably
still in pursuit of the escaped fox, as
we have not heard from him yet-hence

Exciting Runaway,

On Wednesday morning, about 1O:3O,
Rudolph Ziegler, of Jackson Township,
was at the packing house, on Front
street, and having just unloaded a
two horse sleigh, the animals bolted-
ran swiftly past the Kessler House and
dashed up the center of Front street, at
frightful pace, though steering clear
between two thick lines of wagons, bug
gies, slelghs, &c, hitched on either side
When opposite Mr.. Henry Lesher's one
horse fell-was dragged several yards by
the other until it also came to the
ground, throwing the sleigh to the side
of the street, opposite the post Office.
Miraculous to say neither horse was
hurt or even strap broken. Another
span of horses, seeing them, also started
but were successfully arrested

The Smoke OF all Smokes.

Few gentlemen fail to relish a GOOD

Divine decree to nature gives
Perfective detail-ere it lives
And leaveth but for human art
A humble semblance to impart;
Which, if neglected, while there's breath,
Remorseless feelings bring with death.
Who is there that has not heard of the
inevitable THodPsoN-even the re-
nowned artist of Toledo9 He who has
of late so extensively contributed, with
matchless success, to the embellishment
of home circles and the qualification of
an appreciative public. Nor are the
happy effects of his natural talent, as a
portrait delineator or caracaturist, ex-
clusively confined within the limits of
the famous "Corn City" Far and near
his reputation is fast becoming so estab-
lished as to warrant us in making spe-
cial reference to so popular parsonage.
Taking him in his natural element-dili-
gently engaged in his studies-we have
invariably found him most unassuming,
gectlemanly and genial, though ever
free with wistful glances from keen and
penetrative eyes, which, in themselves,
pronounces him shrewd reader of
character. Supported by promising
pupils, who are

quire "does it not become wearisome to

ably follows the simple, yet expressive
reply: 81 LOVE IT." And, we verify be-

of which it would be needless to desire

1t is already self-sustaining.
The stock is now sought and writ

We have made other states rich by

Safe insurance is as much neces.

Profit by these suggestions, and in-

you can at home in any line, if as good
and as cheap-it may come back to
you in the way of trade or accommo-
dation.
The Southwestern has twenty-four
experienced agents now in the field,
and daily increasing her corps from
the veterans of the business.
This fall it will go into other states.
1t already numbers more policies than
any other company of its age ever did
in the south, and Notwithstanding the
stringency of the times, will take this
year not less than eight hundred or a
thousand policies.
1t is one of the elements of future
strength of the state.
Dallas should be proud of such an
institution. 1t should foster it for her
own good.

IndigcstibIe Bread.

The reason why those taking baking

with alum, chalk and other substances
make bread and biscuits very indiges-

C0NC0RDIA CLUB.
Their Hop Last Eyenlng-Thc Affair Of

Decidedly the most pleasant social
affair of the season was the hop given
by the Concordia club last evening.
No efforts or pains were spared by the
management, and the pleasant hours
spent by all present fully attested their
success. The rooms were brilliantly
Illuminated, the music was excellent,
and everything about the entire affair
was arranged with an eye to the conf
fort and enjoyment of the guests.
A large crowd was present, embrac-
ing a number of invited guests. The
gentlemen were arrayed in faultless
costumes, while the toilets of majority
of the ladies were simply elegant.
