We learn that on last Thursday Mr..

possessed. Himself aud the entire
family were at neighbors house at

party, when the fire broke out and
consumed everything, leaving them
not even a change of clothing. They

other provisions, leaving them in really

A Suggestion

Should warm weather follow the re-
cent overflow, a great amount of sick
ness may be looked for and every one
should be prepared to counteract the
evil effects of an atmosphere poisoned
by the decay of matter left by the
flood. II colds are brought on, use
Symphyx; if symptoms of rhumatism
appear apply at once Or. Harris Relief
and in any and all events keep the
bowels regulated by the judicious use
of DR.. Harris Blood and Liver Pills.
